At the door of a house on Knoll Farm, listening to the woman's gasp coming from inside, Kem was very embarrassed when he came to report the situation. I heard that Lord Simon loves women very much, it seems that it should not be a rumor, for Lord Simon, it is simply his battlefield everywhere. Kem stood at the door for a long time, listening to the sound from inside fade away, and he mustered up the courage to knock on the door.

"Come in. A hoarse voice came from inside the door.

Kem walked into the house with his head bowed and trembling.

"How's the rebuilding of the farm, Kem?" a burly, scarred man sat in a chair with a woman in his arms. If you look closely at this man, you will see that his left eye is different from the others, showing a white color similar to transparent, while his right eye is indistinguishable from that of a normal person.

"The workers are already in a hurry, Lord Simon, and I urge them every day to hurry. "It rained down on Khamhan, and he didn't dare tell Simon about the progress he had made.

Shaking his glass with his left hand, Simon drank it down. Wiping his mouth, Simon said to Kem, "You may not have heard clearly, I want a detailed progress, not whether the workers are in a hurry, understand?"

"When... Of course, Sir Simon, we're almost halfway there. The stables and the slaughterhouse are almost finished......" Kem said that he could not go on. Because they have been busy for about half a year, but except for the two buildings that are about to be completed, nothing else has started at all. And the horse shed and slaughterhouse, which are almost completed, are only hastily completed. At this time, Kem was eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Simon listened quietly to Kem's report, and the expression on his face did not change in the slightest. Pulling the hand of the woman next to him and kissing him, Simon said softly: "Baby, you go out first, and we will have a good time in the evening." ”

"I hate you to death~" The beauty in her arms sneered for a moment, then left Simon's embrace, opened the wooden door and walked out. Before the woman could go far, she only heard a "bang". It was like the sound of something being hit, so frightened that the woman didn't dare to stay any longer, and immediately ran away.

Inside the house

Kem clutched his stomach and crouched in the corner of the house with a painful face. He knew that he had violated Simon's bottom line, and he originally expected the farm to be completed within half a year, but he never thought that half a year had passed, but even a third of the project had not been completed. Not only Semon, but Lenchem himself didn't know what he was doing during this time.

Simon's expression was extremely calm at this time, and he did not show any anger in the slightest. But Kem knew that for this Master Simon, if he scolded you, it was fine. If he's as calm as he is now, that's the real end.

"Say it, Kem. Glancing at Kem who was huddled in the corner, Simon said indifferently: "How are you going to make up for the mistakes you made this time?"

"Plug... Lord Semon, it was my mistake some time ago, but I promise not next time, give me another half a year... No, no, no, in three months, I promise to get all the work done. At this time, Kem didn't care about any face, and pleaded repeatedly. In fact, he also understands that not to mention three months, given a year, may not be able to complete. But now, in order to save my life, I have to say this, and if I can't do it, I will have to run away when the time comes.

Hearing this, Simon rushed to Kem's face, grabbed his golden hair, and said to him, "Three months? I gave you half a year." You've lied more than Lucar's bastard. ”

Hearing the name Lucar, Kem was even more frightened. It was one of the four overseers at the time, and because he had been lying to Semon and repeatedly delaying the construction period, Simon disposed of him, and even the body was buried by Kem and the other two overseers.

At this time, Kem could no longer care about the pain, and said to Simon with a grin, "Lord Simon, please believe me, give me another three months. While I may not be able to guarantee that I will be able to get everything done, at least I will be able to get the farm up and running as scheduled. ”

Simon shook his hand hard, and Kem's head slammed into a nearby wall. Although his painful tears were rolling in his eyes, he couldn't care about these things at this time, and quickly got up and knelt in front of Simon again.

There was silence for a long time.

Simon said slowly to Kem, "Listen to Kem, you should have ended up like Lucar's piece of waste today. But thinking that you are at least somewhat capable, and that there is a shortage of manpower on the farm now, I will keep you alive for the time being. ”

Hearing this, Kem breathed a sigh of relief.

Simon shook three fingers in front of Kem, and then said, "Three months! I'll give you another three months, and I'll say the same to Lim and Warren." After three months, I would like to see a complete Knoll farm. If I'm not satisfied... Then there's no need for you to stay on the farm. No, there is no need to stay in this world anymore. ”

After hearing Simon's words, Kem broke out in a cold sweat. He knew Simon's style very well, and he couldn't imagine what he would be like in three months.

"Well, so be it, you can go down. Simon sat back in his chair, and that was his last bottom line.

"Yes—" Kem quickly got up and limped away as if he were on the verge of amnesty.

Watching Kem walk out of the gate like a dog, Simon scoffed. If he hadn't been cornered, who would have wanted to work under that guy in Austin, and even send himself to this remote Knoll farm. Looking at the bunch of waste under his hands, Simon wanted to replace them all more than once. But now no one wants to work in this place where birds don't, so Simon has to endure it. And I heard that the kingdom has not been peaceful recently, and the southern fortress has prevented a large number of civilians of the Stormwind Kingdom who have fled to Lordaeron. Despite the Kingdom's efforts to stop the spread of the news, Simon was able to get some news from some of the ruffians in the taverns.

Judging from the news he has gathered, it seems that something big is about to happen on the continent, which has been quiet for hundreds of years. As a warmonger, Simon was certainly interested in these things. After working for Austin in this place for more than half a year, he has long been tired of the boring life here. War and killing were what he really longed for.

"Lord Simon, Ron has arrived. An overseer knocked on the door and spoke to Simon from outside.

Ron?

"I see, please let him in. Simon said to the door.

After a while, he saw Ron push the door open, followed by a man he didn't know.

"Sir Semon, it's been a long time. Ron greeted Simon warmly as he stepped through the door.

"yes, but how do I remember it's only been four or five days. Simon's expression didn't change in the slightest, and he said coldly. He has always disliked to greet others, and he does not like to be polite to others. Although I don't appreciate Ron, I don't hate it either.

Smiling awkwardly, Ron didn't care about these little things.

Simon glanced at Xue Huan and said to Ron suspiciously, "Who is this?"

"So it is so, this little brother is the child of a relative of Jos's old butler, and since there is no shortage of servants at Lord Austen's place, he has been specially placed here to work. I'm back to Stratholme for this purpose. Ron explained Xue Huan's origin in detail.

This guy needs you to pick it up yourself, am I a fool, or Ron is going to do something else and piggyback on this little guy. Either that's what's so special about this little guy. Putting away his eyes looking at Xue Huan, Simon asked Xue Huan lightly: "Little guy, what is your name?"

"My name is Xue Huan. Seeing that this person was not interested in Ron just now, Xue Huan suddenly became interested in the person in front of him. This must be Simon, who is known as 'The Executioner'.

Seeing that Xue Huan was a little timid, but excited, the corners of Simon's mouth showed a hint of a smile. What a funny little friend.

Putting away his smile, Simon said to Xue Huan with a cold face: "I am the person in charge here, my name is Simon. It doesn't matter where you come from, but when you get here, you have to follow the rules of Knoll Farm. In addition to me, there were three overseers and about two dozen workers on the farm. And because Ron is a close confidant of Mrs. Austin, he is only responsible for arranging for everyone's work. ”

It turned out that this was the case, and Xue Huan was guessing all the way about what Ron was in charge of at the farm.

"Later, I'll arrange for the overseer to take you to a familiar place where ten workers live in one house. Time is limited, so put your things away and start working in the afternoon. "Looks like this Lord Simon is also an impatient.

Ten workers? Xue Huan smiled bitterly in his heart, but there was no dissatisfaction on his face.

"Do you have any other questions?" asked Simon.

"It's gone..."Xue Huan couldn't remember how many times he had said the same thing in the past few days.

"Limu!" Simon yelled out the door. After a while, I saw a thin man walk in. Simon said to the overseer, Lim, "Take this friend and get acquainted with the workers' quarters, and remember to arrange another afternoon's work, and go." ”

"Yes! ”

Before going out, Xue Huan glanced back at Ron and saw that the latter gave him an encouraging look.

Watching Xue Huan and Limu go out the door, Simon stepped out of his seat and stood side by side with Ron. "How's the preparation going over there, Lord Austin?"

As if he didn't understand what Simon was saying, Ron looked puzzled.

"Come on. Can I still know what Austen's is?Do you think he has any chance of winning without my help?" Seeing Ron's expression a little uneasy, Simon continued, "Although I know very well that you are working for Mrs. Austin, I am not so stupid as to think that you don't know anything. ”

Hearing what Simon said, Ron no longer concealed it, clapped his hands, and said to Simon: "It's worthy of Lord Semon, but these words can't be said to anyone. ”

"So is that guy Semuel reliable? From what I've got, it seems that the kid doesn't have enough IQ. Simon hit Semuel mercilessly, and in his eyes he was just a child who had never seen the world.

"Hmph, no matter how you say it, he's also a general, but it's not something you and I can look down on. As for whether or not we can succeed, that's Austin's business, we just need to do our part. Ron didn't seem to have a crush on Simon as a person.

"And what about the boy?" asked Simon.

"That kid?" Ron was stunned for a moment, only to realize that he was referring to Xue Huan. Thinking of his relationship with Xue Huan along the way and his wife's instructions to him, Ron shook his head and said, "I don't know very well, but he seems to be a very important person. ”

Very important people? That's really interesting. Simon licked his lips, after being here for so long, he finally had something to do.
