The Viscount of Edinburgh is a strange man, and almost every lord knows it.

The guards of Edinburgh knew this better, but they all wanted their Viscount to be abnormal every day.

Of course, there are occasional strange behaviors or unintelligible words, and everyone understands, after all, the Viscount's head has been ......

It's no secret, it's just a little sequelae, and it's harmless.

I remember that the first time Lord Viscount was like a fool was when he had scavenged the treasury of Tong Laga, and for the first time in Edinburgh, there was gold and silver, and the weight was quite a lot, and now it has not been spent.

For the first time, when the Viscount often fell into a deep contemplation and a daze, he forcibly burned the stone into water, and finally created a peerless sword like a god, and took out a random one in exchange for a lot of resources.

Even though a few of the guards became blacksmiths and became farther and farther away from the glory of the warriors, everyone was happy in their hearts.

The first time the Viscount ......

Every time something good happens in the territory, making a fortune, keeping horses in captivity, benefiting the people, and even having its own mineral vein.

Today, Lord Viscount sent Bond and the others away, and after returning to the castle, he was stupid again, laughing non-stop, tears flowed out, and everyone knew that there was a good thing nine times out of ten.

It's just that there is joy in the laughter, there are reminiscences, and even reluctance, etc., which makes a person anxious but doesn't know how to speak.

"Are you alright?"

It's not the same thing after all, Yalina asked with a frown.

Sure enough, someone is afraid of guilt, and Yalina will get better as soon as she opens her mouth.

Sitting upright, the portrait was solemn, as if it wasn't him who almost laughed just now: "O'Barton, you ask Myron Colby to count how much labor can be drawn from the territory to build a house and implement it immediately, and notify all the people in the territory to recruit workers, I want to make a big move." ”

This change made everyone stunned.

"Building a house? And big moves? ”

Without waiting for Obadon to respond, Alina looked at Meron suspiciously.

Now if she encounters any doubts, Yalina will ask, unlike the original, three sentences can be expressed in one sentence, and absolutely not two sentences.

Nodding slightly, Meron explained: "I went out this time to ask the Koda Gang to buy a group of slaves, more than two hundred and less than three hundred, and they can come to our territory in about half a month and build some houses for them to live in." ”

"Slaves?"

Except for a few insiders in O'Neid, everyone else was shocked.

Slaves are good, and they can be exchanged for endless labor for a small fee, but most people don't think that the territory now has the capital to feed slaves.

Some time ago, there was a big problem with food in the territory, and now although it has been solved, it is only temporary, even if the crops are growing better than before, but who knows what the harvest will be in the fall.

"Lord Viscount, I think it's best to wait a little longer for the purchase of slaves, and see how the taxes are in the fall, and the slaves at that time are much cheaper."

O'Neid hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but speak.

The owner of the castle has absolute power to speak, but the chief steward also has the right to advise.

"There is no need to worry about this, the sooner you increase the labor force, the sooner you will get something, and as for the food problem, I will solve it." There is still respect for the old butler Meron, there is no special opportunity, and it is indeed not suitable to add so many mouths now.

After a pause, Meron continued: "Second, the big move is to recruit a large number of laborers to open up the wasteland, and this labor is not limited to whether they are young or middle-aged, anyone can go, but the returns are slightly different. ”

"Forehead ......"

Now everyone was not shocked, but a little stupid, and they didn't even know what to say.

There are not many people in the territory, but last time I counted it, there were a total of 1,800 people, and if Meron really gave such an order, it is estimated that everyone who can move will come.

There is no such thing as making money, but you can earn food, and you have eaten the last meal without the next meal, and it is estimated that no one has a hard time with food.

Offering 1,800 people, the scalp tingles just thinking about it.

"It seems that everyone has no opinion, then implement it now, especially in the wasteland, I am still waiting to plant something, hehe......" Meron smirked a few times.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and I want to refute it, but the Viscount's order cannot but be carried out......

"Ouch!"

At this time, Meron, who began to giggle again, suddenly exclaimed, and his face turned into a bitter melon.

"Poof......

Finally, someone couldn't help but laugh out loud, feeling funny and relieved.

"Big sister, I was wrong!"

Meron couldn't care about the people around him, and begged Yalina for mercy with an aggrieved face.

There's no way, my ears are about to fall off, and this hand is really strong!

Yalina also reflected, and hurriedly let go of her hand, feeling a little remorseful in her heart, no matter what, the majesty of the castle owner was inviolable, and she was a little reckless this time.

Meron was forgiving and generous, and was the kindest castle owner one had ever seen, but that was not a reason for others to be coquettish.

It's just that it's so annoying just now, everyone is worried to death, but someone is there laughing and laughing, and for a while......

wanted to apologize, but didn't know how to speak, and then looked at Meron's angry little daughter-in-law, Yalina couldn't hold back her laughter for a while, and the idea of apologizing was gone.

To get back to the point, Yalina's smile was just shocked, and then she returned to her expressionless state: "The house was built for slaves to live in, and what about clearing the wasteland?" This season has long passed the time of clearing the wasteland. ”

Generally, the land is cultivated in autumn or spring, but now that it has entered the summer, it is basically difficult to mature the grain planted in the land reclamation, which is common sense.

"Of course it's farming!" Meron rubbed his ears and said aggrievedly.

Alina stared at Meron's ears and grinded her teeth, but finally held back.

"Ahem...... Do you remember what Elle gave me? Meron coughed lightly, and subconsciously touched his ears.

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

There are not a lot of things that Elle gave, especially those yellow particles, which everyone sees for the first time, and naturally remembers them vividly.

"I think you've already thought of something, it's that yellow thing. I'm telling you, that thing is called corn! ”

It's been a long time since he came to this world, and when he finally saw something like the previous world, Meron was a little unusually excited, and of course what made Meron excited was the yield of corn and so on.

The highest yield here is the unpalatable bran, and the yield of corn may not be as good as the bran, but it is definitely not much worse.

If enough corn is planted in the territory, Meron promises that he will never have to worry about food in the future, and may be able to sell grain to other territories.

Of course, at this time, I didn't think that I could wait until the corn was ripe, but this was not a problem, and the boiled corn cob was also very delicious, and no matter how bad it was, the horses in the castle could eat it.

The reason why Elle said that it was not delicious was that she made the corn not fully ripe, and there were many half-cooked corn husks, so it was strange that it was delicious!

"It's all true?"

After listening to Meron talk about the various benefits of corn, Yalina couldn't sit still and asked excitedly.

"Of course!"

"Tell all the people in the realm that if you don't want to starve in winter, get all the people moving, and grow as much corn as possible."

After the excitement, Yalina blinked as if she remembered something, looked sideways at Meron and asked, "What did you just call me?" ”
