"Say it!"

Zhu Ping gently pushed the old craftsman's back and motioned him to hurry up.

The old craftsman no longer had the heroic feeling he had scolded before, and shrunk his neck like a quail, not knowing how to discuss the matter with the young apprentice.

It perfectly interprets the status quo of most parents who "are grinning about small things and grinding loudly".

Olena blinked her trademark slender eyelashes, her star-bright eyes full of doubt.

The old craftsman brewed the mood of the council, and in a weak voice of mosquitoes and flies, said: "Actually, actually...... Today's bread at noon is a little sour, probably not steamed. ”

Zhu Ping helplessly raised his forehead, and said to the junior apprentice past the old craftsman: "Miss Olena, I discussed it with your master today and want to tell you a secret.

In fact, you are not an ordinary person, and your body is not the same as an ordinary person.

Of course, don't get me wrong, you're just as human as we are, but you're special......"

Olena's mouth opened slightly, paused for a moment, and then showed a warm smile: "Actually, I already knew. ”

This smile is like the first warm breeze blowing in early spring, refreshing people's hearts.

Full of healing.

But the old craftsman's screams interrupted this harmonious scene, and his eyes widened in disbelief: "You already knew! I've been hiding it so hard, how could you possibly find out. ”

When the old craftsman said this, not only Zhu Ping was silent, but also the always cheerful Olena didn't know how to answer.

In fact, she already knew about it.

Not to mention anything else, the old craftsman's bloody head and mouth are not controlled by the brain, so he can't hide any news.

Although there are jokes in this world that adult aristocratic girls do not know how to dress themselves.

But such an example obviously cannot be applied to a thoughtful young apprentice.

The body created by extraordinary creations can never be exactly the same as the body of an ordinary person.

For example, Olena is now seventeen or eighteen years old, but her appearance is still the same as that of twelve or thirteen years old, and her second trait is completely undeveloped and unremarkable, which is obviously abnormal.

Little Lina said: I was offended.

Besides, in the past, other children grew up slowly, but there was no one like her who didn't grow taller for a few years and grew two inches taller overnight.

The old craftsman was too careless, causing Olena to notice the anomaly from a very young age.

For so many years, Hepburn thought he was taking care of the apprentices, but in fact, it was the early wisdom of Olena who was coaxing this weird-tempered old man.

Although the exchange did not develop along the normal route, it finally achieved a relatively satisfactory result.

Letting Olena know her physical condition will be of great benefit to her future knowledge of craftsmen and her control over her body.

Of course, it will take a familiar stage for Olena to take full control of her body.

After all, when the arm and head "add a pluggable function", it is too impactful for a girl's cognition.

Being mentally prepared does not mean that you can accept all the truth right away.

After Zhu Ping casually mentioned a few words to the old craftsman, and told the old man what to pay attention to, he borrowed a few spiritual patterns from the old craftsman's inventory and left the barracks in a hurry.

……

Zhu Ping has been a little busy lately.

It's very busy, and even the time to lie in the rocking chair is as hard to squeeze out as the career line of A.

On the side of the barracks, the soldiers are managed by Na Dana and the two people, the logistics are managed by the old Karl, and the stunned young people of the inspection team conduct self-inspection, which can maintain the status quo for the time being.

But he also needs to show up frequently, brush up his presence, correct mistakes, adjust military supplies, and prevent hidden dangers in all aspects.

In addition, Zhu Ping often appears in the castle to listen to the news collected by Aunt Nina about the Orlandon leadership.

For example, the exchange of interests and personal relations between the nobility.

Recently, because of the fall of Baron Peggy, the large territory he holds, and many shops in the capital, have become cakes to scrape.

In this regard, Zhu Ping naturally wants a piece of the pie.

Nina handed the message into his hand and commented, "Baron Peggy's territory is about to be auctioned.

Of these, six hundred acres were located around the capital, where the Peggy family had full control over the family farmland, and five hundred acres were located on the outskirts, the territory he nominally administered. ”

Family farmland, noble territory...... Zhu Ping pondered for a moment.

I don't know if it's the characteristics of this world, or if the nobility of every world is the same......

The nobility had their own territorial areas, but the ownership of these territories did not belong exclusively to the nobility.

Strictly speaking, only the cultivated land of the noble families belonged to the nobility itself, and the territory of the nobility belonged to the jurisdiction.

Similar to the ancient government, a local government manages an entire area of land, some of which is owned by the government, but some of which is owned by individual farmers.

Like before Na Dana II was driven out of his hometown and his land was forcibly expropriated, it was Baron George who forcibly divided their land into the George family's cultivated land for a meager amount of money.

Zhu Ping analyzed for a moment and asked, "What about the price?" ”

"According to the information released by relevant personnel now, the price of the Peggy family's self-cultivated land is about fifty gold coins per mu, and the territory in the suburbs is about fifteen gold coins per mu." Nina responded truthfully.

So much worse, huh...... It is also normal, after all, the ownership is different and the location of the land is different...... Zhu Ping weighed left and right, and ordered:

"Released the news to the outside world, I am going to contract the Peggy family's self-cultivated land, and my attitude is arrogant, just say that I have taken a fancy to this place and must get it."

After speaking, Zhu Ping suddenly thought of something, and said in surprise: "What about the Peggy family's store?" Why is there no auction at the store? ”

"The shop seems to have been bought by Baron Lippi from Viscount Shawn's faction for a very low price." Nina added: "This is gossip that has not yet been verified. ”

"Baron Lippi, it's this guy again, it's him everywhere, this guy's presence has been very strong recently!"

Zhu Ping closed his eyes, tapped his fingers on the table, and diverged his thoughts in the rhythmic sound.

Nina waited on the sidelines, trying to keep her breathing rate as low as possible.

Soon, Zhu Ping opened his eyes like a deep pool and said, "Just smash those shops, forget it...... I'll send someone to smash this matter!

Then you send it out: 'It's my stuff that no one can snatch!' This sentence.

The attitude is still as arrogant as possible, just say that these should have been my store did not give me, see once smashed. ”

Nina half-concealed reminded her: "Then Viscount Xiao Nong's side ......"

"Don't bother." Zhu Ping's eyes were sharp, and he said, "By the way, remember to help me prepare two sets of night walking cloaks." ”

After that, Nina didn't say a word, and went to prepare.

In fact, Zhu Ping didn't really want to get his hands on the shop on Lippi's side, he just went to make trouble and let the other party make some blood, telling him that it was not so easy to take advantage of the cheap.

Those shops Zhu Ping had known before, and most of them sold some luxury goods, jewelry, and leather furniture......

These things are valuable in peacetime, but when the powder keg explodes in Orlanton, they are just a pile of rotten wood, and they are cut into pieces and burned as firewood without distress.

Luxury is such a thing, just look at it, it is just a toy attached to power, and the real value is the territory of the nobility and the people on the land.

The truest rule in this world is only fists!

As for the news that Zhu Ping was going to release just now, he naturally had his plan, which was a buried bait, and he didn't need to pay too much attention to it for the time being.

On the other hand, Baron Pouk can do some articles.

Zhu Ping walked to the window, stretched, and looked at the "tattered" garden, feeling extremely comfortable.
