0041 The Little Abacus of the Untouchables
After the beautiful but terrible vampire maid demanded forced eviction, the man in green gave every family in the village a bag of iodized salt, three pieces of toffee to each child, and a rabbit drawn with blue lines on the candy paper.
The villagers don't believe in vampires...... Or the green people who conquered the vampires would be so kind, but the toffee in the hands of the children is indeed a delicious and sweet and intoxicating delicacy; The salt in the peculiarly textured tough bag was also incredibly white, and when it was licked to the tongue, there was only an extremely pure salty taste, and there was not even a trace of bitterness.
So valuable, probably more expensive than a gift of gold...... And something like that, and it was delivered to these untouchables for no reason? And it was sent by the terrifying and evil vampires in various stories?!
All right...... They actually know that the vampires who live in the mountains are not very vicious, and they are not even more ferocious than the monsters in the mountains. But if the status of the two sides is reversed, they can be sure that they will never give such a good thing to anyone! Absolutely not!
The green-clad men and vampires who sat on flying iron birds distributed their belongings and left, only to order them to start moving within three days, and not to bring large furniture. Fields that have not yet been harvested can be left with one or two people to take care of them, and then they can be harvested again when the harvest is time and then transported to the city of the Green Man.
The vampire maids didn't say what if they took the Greenman's stuff and didn't move to the Greenman's city, but pretended to relocate but ran away. After the iron bird flew away, the adults in the village did gather at the door of the village chief's house to discuss the matter.
Not to mention the bags of snow salt weighing half a catty, even if you just collect the toffee in the hands of the children and sell it to the big merchants in the town, you will probably be able to make up enough money for the village to escape to a distant place.
When they re-establish their villages in new places, they can sell a little snow salt in exchange for enough food for the next harvest, and enough ordinary salt for their consumption, and the rest of the snow salt in bags that seem to be airtight should be stored for a long time and can be kept for a rainy day.
Untouchables also have their little abacus, but they won't honestly do what the nobles say!
If they or their ancestors were so honest, how could they have fled to this place where no one cares!
The benefits of the noble lords are not so easy to take, what the green man who began to absorb the population in order to establish a city has done, and other noble lords have also done, but the benefits given or promised are not as amazing as the green man.
But there are also black-hearted lords who use the benefits that make people have to be tempted to attract the population, and then use all kinds of harsh taxes to collect the benefits back. Even if the lords of this generation are very benevolent and benevolent, there is no guarantee that the lords of the next generation will also be benevolent and benevolent, not to mention that most of the lords of benevolence and benevolence will not live long on the battlefield.
Although the life between the mountains and the wilderness is more difficult, it will not be taken away by the noble lord, will not be pulled by the noble lord to serve in labor or even go to the battlefield, and will not be robbed of his childhood sweetheart, wife and daughter by the son of the noble lord or the son of the housekeeper or housekeeper!
Whoever fled to the mountains and wilderness was never born under a "legendary" benevolent and benevolent lord, and everyone must have their own misfortunes.
Although their descendants have never experienced that kind of misfortune again, can the villagers, who are accustomed to being free, still be able to endure the laws of the noble lord?
There are so many laws of the noble lord, and they don't know what they are, but what everyone knows is that everything they have belongs to the noble lord, and even they themselves belong to the noble lord, and the noble lord is right to do anything, and the noble lord is sacrosanct.
As long as you keep the above articles in mind, the rest is actually not remembered, anyway, the nobles can collect whatever taxes they want, and they can collect as many taxes as they want, do they have any other choice but to pay taxes obediently?
In this world, all the noble lords are actually like this, and the benevolent noble lords just collect less taxes and do more good deeds.
So is there a difference between a vampire and a man in green? The villagers can't imagine how different this "difference" can be, but they have seen the kindness and kindness of the people in green, which is based on unimaginable wealth and wealth, and is as kind as a loser!
It was precisely because the man in green didn't seem to care at all about the bags of salt and pieces of sugar that the villagers "instinctively" had the idea of running away with the salt and sugar they had earned for nothing, and they quickly felt reluctant.
Although the beautiful and noble vampire maid coldly ordered them to move to the city that the Greenmen were going to build, without promising them anything or telling them what would become of it, they felt that they could get more out of the Greens' hands.
This has nothing to do with benevolence and kindness, it's just that the man in green is so rich!
Although a rich aristocratic lord may be more stingy than a wealthy aristocratic lord, it must not be a very rich aristocratic lord, and even if a little thing leaks from his fingers, it is enough for the people to live in happiness.
They had never heard of a very wealthy nobleman's lords who were not living well, and the servants and entourage of those extremely wealthy nobles, even if they were still commoners, were better off than the nobles in the countryside—something that many had seen with their own eyes.
So after pondering repeatedly, the villagers unanimously decided to go to the city built by the green people.
The vampire maid told them that the location was outside the largest mountain pass in the northern part of the mountain, in the grasslands belonging to the Centaurs. However, since the people in green have already negotiated with the lord of the Centaur clan, they should not drag them to fight or defend the city.
The vampire maid also told them not to worry about food, the green-clothed men would provide food for the elderly and children for free, and the adults would have to work in exchange for food and money, so their current job would probably be to build a city, and then they would not be sent to the surrounding villages until the next spring to establish a village and start farming or grazing.
Untouchables are not afraid of work, they have not been reincarnated as aristocratic masters, they are born with a cheap life, what can they do if they don't work!
They just hope to work in peace, and they can exchange their sweat for enough harvest for the whole family.
The people in green are not afraid to use them as cattle and horses, as long as the wealthy people in green can give a little more wages and collect a little less tax, their adventure this time will be worth it!
