106 No "Self"
At the end of the conversation, the "door" made of tree branches was completely removed.
The bright light of the fire reflected in the hut, half-covering their eyes, and Tamara and York followed the light, and two torches were held high in the doorway, illuminating the figures of several people around them.
"Ah, it's Loth...... And Master Andrei! β
The leader was Wu Qingchen, and next to him were the other two serfs standing in the livestock shed, as well as the two foreign cowherds who had just arrived in the village of Akrya, and the one who fell at the back, who was raising his palm and fanning his nose at the moment, was actually the little man Andre in the church!
When the "door" was removed, they had already heard that Wu Qingchen and his party should not be malicious, Tamara and York were not too alarmed, but suddenly so many uninvited guests came over, and the two of them couldn't help but put away the beans in their hands.
"Aunt Tamara, you look much better."
Standing at the door, waiting for the two to collect the beans, and waiting for the two to calm down a bit, Wu Qingchen smiled at Tamara first, and then looked at her son: "York, you are really here, did you hear clearly what I said just now?" β
How could it be that you didn't hear clearly?
Eating enough for yourself, as well as your mother's "hunger disease", is no longer a problem!
This is exactly what York has been thinking about all the time during this time.
If there is someone in the village of Akri who can fulfill this wish of his own, and in just half a month, he has achieved a dragon of cattle control, reward, and promotion, it must be one of them.
"Hear me, Loth." Realizing that this was extremely important to himself and to his mother, it seemed very possible to achieve it, and when he answered, York clenched his hands tightly.
"Okay, would you like to do me a favor?"
"Tell me!" York didn't hesitate to agree.
"I have to tell you, there may be a little danger."
"It's okay, I'm not afraid!" From the quick answer, the firm tone, it can be heard that York is indeed not afraid at all.
"Of course, there won't be much danger." Wu Qingchen first gestured to Tamara with a comforting look, then stared at York again, and said solemnly: "However, when you help, whatever I say, you have to do it, and you have to listen to me for everything." β
"Good! I listen to you for everything! β
......At this point, Wu waved at this point, and a cowherd helper walked into the hut and handed a small bag to Tamara and York.
Not again!
Standing seven or eight meters away from the hut, little Andre stopped his arm that was constantly fanning in front of his nose and looked at the hut with interest: York slowly opened the four corners of the cloth bag, and saw another handful of beans inside, and tears instantly rushed out of his eyes.
Leaving the beans to Tamara, Wu Qingchen and his party left the hut with torches, and another serf was added to the team.
Ten minutes later, in another haphazardly built dilapidated house, after a similar process, the last serf working in the livestock shed also joined Wu Qingchen's team.
At this time, the country path was almost at the end, and the edge of the forest had appeared in front of everyone.
At this time, all the serfs also knew what Wu Qingchen asked them to do.
Pick the honeycomb.
More specifically, the honeycomb is transferred from the forest to the plot without harming the bees inside.
This is something that is unheard of.
However, this matter is not against the will of the old man, and with Andre's endorsement, and he has already received the benefits of beans in advance, York and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, they did not mind spending a night with Wu Qingchen.
The reason why I say "spending" instead of wasting is because Wu Qingchen/Los is quite well prepared, and Wu Qingchen/Los itself represents the miracle of Akri Village, and no one is sure that this completely unprecedented, in Wu Qingchen's hands, will not succeed.
At the edge of the forest, somewhere in an open area, next to a tree of moderate height.
Wu Qingchen motioned for everyone to stop.
Next, under the command of Wu Qingchen, everyone first hung a ball wrapped in wheat stalks, leaves, and rattan on the branches of the arbor.
Next, beside another small tree not far away, the thin York, carrying a sharp axe borrowed from the church, began to practice cutting off wrist-thick branches in the least number of times and in the lightest way under the guidance of Wu Qingchen.
After about an hour or so, two sturdy cowherd helpers lifted the axe and the practiced York onto the tree's branches.
During this time, the other three serfs had been practicing holding long wooden poles, stained with wet mud, and trying to block the small entrance and exit of the "honeycomb".
When carrying out these exercises, whether it is Wu Qingchen/Luos, the cowherd helpers, or the serfs, they are always attentive and have no distractions.
Looking at this scene, taking advantage of another practice, little Andre came to the side of Wu Qingchen, who was wiping sweat, and suddenly said: "Rose, you are right." β
"What?" Wu Qingchen didn't quite understand what Andre meant.
"These serfs are indeed likely to move the honeycomb." Andrei said so.
At noon, when discussing with Wu Qingchen, when he learned that Wu Qingchen planned to use serfs to move the honeycomb, Andre felt that it was not very reliable.
Whether it was in his own land or in the commons of Ackery, when he accompanied his father and brother every year, or accompanied the priest to supervise the labor, AndrΓ© was accustomed to seeing the tricks of the serfs.
These lazy bones, when they usually don't have heavy work, will have hand pain, foot pain, headache, stomach pain, back pain, and mouth pain all day long...... There is simply no comfortable place on the body.
In the summer, once the work is busy, it is even more uneasy. In order to escape the righteous labor, these damn fellows chop their fingers and toes without frowning, and if they don't stare at it in the blink of an eye, these two-legged beasts will "accidentally" break the farm tools in their hands.
"Picking honeycombs" is such a delicate and difficult job, and "serfs" are such slippery bastards, it is really difficult for Andrei to connect the two.
Until this moment, seeing the price of Wu Qingchen's use of a few packets of beans, he coaxed the four serfs to death, trembling and practicing these meticulous cooperations that now seem quite complicated, Andrei had to agree that Wu Qingchen's method did have some effect.
"But ......" Andrei still had a question: "When the work in the commons is the heaviest and busiest, in fact, the teachers and stewards will also give the serfs a little more food, why are they not so obedient?" β
How do you say that?
Could it be that the Earth Staff Corps has actually set up a file for every serf who can collect information?
Do you tell you that the last time you cleaned the livestock shed on a large scale, you "casually" pointed at it
