Ze Longer returned to his study, thinking of the conversation with Chen Xiansong in the tavern just now, he was very happy, and couldn't help laughing. At this time, Verde happened to come back from a mission, and he went straight into Zelonger's private study, and asked curiously, "What is so happy?" ”

Verde was a loyal knight of Zelonger, and the nobles were accustomed to finding a peer as an attendant for their heirs, and the two lived and grew up together, so that the knight who grew up with him had a very close relationship with his master and was extremely loyal to the territory. It would be more appropriate to say that Zeloner and Verde were not so much master and servant as a pair of brothers.

"I made that bastard owe me a favor." In front of his good friends, Ze Longer no longer has to pretend to be that unapproachable appearance: "You also know that I hate soul thinkers, why does the sun god favor them so much, the ability to create, this is the prerogative of God, many times I always think, if I give up my status and talent as a warrior in exchange for the ability of soul thinkers, whether I am willing or not, the answer is obvious." ”

Verde poured himself a cup of tea, sat down on the cross chair, took a sip, and said with a smile: "You are envious." ”

"Envy or jealousy, it doesn't make much difference." Zelonger stood up, pushed open the window, and looked down from here, he could see the scenery of the entire Black Earth City, the bustling crowd, even if it was far away, he seemed to be able to hear the clanging sound from the blacksmith shop on the side of the city wall: "This is a fairly prosperous city, but it is not all the credit of my father, and there is also the achievement of His Excellency Udir. Without him, the city would not be alive now, if not a dead city. ”

After drinking the flower tea in the cup, Verde said with a smile: "So, you feel uncomfortable?" ”

"Some, secretly, my father's efforts for this city are no less than those of His Excellency Udil, but ......" Zelong's face was a little sneering, a little helpless, and there was also a kind of fascination: "When it comes to contributing to the city, they will only think of His Excellency Udil, but not of their father." ”

An old friend for more than ten years, when Verder heard this, he knew what he was thinking in his heart, and comforted: "This is something that can't be helped, soul thinkers are indeed more relied on and respected by people." The lord didn't have any bad thoughts about this, and he was even good friends with Lord Udir. ”

Ze Long'er nodded: "I know what you mean." Lord Udir will one day grow old and return to the arms of the Lord. After that, what should we do if we don't have soul contemplators in Black Earth City? Decaying day by day? The city has poured my father's life's work into it, and I will not allow such a thing to happen, so, after Lord Udir, Black Earth City must have a successor who will be here for a long time. ”

"So you want Your Excellency Chen Xiansong to owe you a favor."

"Yes, I investigated that guy a little and found that he is a good guy, and judging by what happened to him in the last few days, he is indeed a trustworthy person. If he can stay in Black Earth City in the future, it will be a good thing for us. ”

With a playful look, Verder played with his teacup: "So, you want to learn about the relationship between your father and His Excellency Udir, and become friends with Chen Xiansong?" I agree with this, and your idea is good, my future lord. ”

Ze Long'er said angrily: "To say such a thing, you are still my friend and knight, I said, I hate soul thinkers, and I hate that guy even more." Isn't it obvious that if he owes me a favor, it is nothing more than using him, and if he stays, our city will have a future, isn't it obvious! ”

Furder shook his head in surprise: "You are duplicitous, obviously you are a very good person, you always like to pretend to kill people every day, you obviously appreciate His Excellency Chen Xiansong in your heart, but you don't want to have a good relationship with him, I can't understand your thoughts." ”

"This is the majesty I must have to become a lord in the future." Zelonger said lightly: "You should have talents who are good at reconnaissance, dial one or two to me, I plan to let them keep an eye on Howard and Comos, the two idiots." ”

"You want to?"

Zelonger nodded slightly: "I want that bastard to owe me a favor, the more the better." In this way, he will consider staying in Black Earth City in the future, and he will not think about running around. As much as I hate him, I feel like I can endure it for the sake of the future of Black Earth City. ”,

"You're so duplicitous to the point of being hopeless!" Verder muttered quietly.

Chen Xiansong rested in the tavern for a while, then accompanied Bai Min to the spice shop to buy some seasonings, and then stopped by the soul contemplative to visit Udil, and then took the carriage and walked slowly home. When I returned to Graystone Village, it was just time for dinner, and the greedy people who worked were tired from the day and were devouring dinner. Ryan was also among them, and when he saw Chen Xiansong's carriage coming back, he hurriedly put down the plate in his hand, wiped the oil and water from his mouth with a cloth, and limped to meet him.

"Ma'am, you're back! We've done our work according to the plan, do you want to check it? ”

Bai Min had already gotten off the carriage, and when he heard this, he flew directly into the sky to check the progress of the project. Chen Xiansong looked around, and when he saw those who were eating, they all stopped and were looking at him quietly, and he knew that he was here to 'disturb' them. The concept of class in this era is very serious, Chen Xiansong is their master, and as a 'servant' and 'people', if they dare to eat in front of the master, it is not a small crime.

"Everybody go on, I'll go first."

Ryan bent down and watched Chan Hyun-song leave. Ryan had never been in contact with nobles before, let alone with soul contemplators, and had no references, so he didn't know how to evaluate Chen Xiansong, but he understood that if a master didn't have any shelf, and he spoke kindly, his personality should not be bad.

Bai Min landed not far in front of Ryan from the sky and said, "You are doing a good job, and the progress is the same as the plan." Starting tomorrow, you will be officially appointed as the leader of the construction team, with full responsibility for supervising and directing the progress of the project, and in recognition of your efforts, your daily salary will be increased from three copper coins to five copper coins starting tomorrow. ”

Although I don't know what I mean by being a 'construction team leader', it's really a good thing that my salary has risen, and Ryan is overjoyed: "Thank you, ma'am, thank you, ma'am." ”

Bai Min ignored the wild animal in front of her, she returned home, took out the spice flavor, and began to prepare dinner. In fact, there are servants in the family, and one of them is a specially selected chef by Robert, and his cooking skills should be good. It's a pity that Bai Min never let him cook any food for Chen Xiansong, because she thinks that the things cooked by wild animals are not 'safe', how can such things be eaten by precious natural people, who knows what problems will arise in Lu Dao.

As a result, the cook turned into a full-time chef with six mercenaries, which was quite unintentional. The six mercenaries, led by Balf, mistakenly thought that Chen Xiansong and Bai Min valued them very much, and specially hired a cook for them, and they were very grateful.

After eating, because there was nothing to do, Chen Xiansong rolled boredly on the bed, and after a while, someone came in to report that Aslan had something to see him.

In the living room downstairs, Aslan brought some game he hunted today, Bai Min checked it for a while, sniffed it with his nose, and after confirming that it was not poisonous, he handed it over to the other servants to dispose of these things. Opposite Chen Xiansong, Aslan was a little nervous, looking like he wanted to ask someone to do something, but he was afraid of being rejected.

"Teacher Xiao Song, I have a reluctant invitation to come this time." Aslan rubbed the white porcelain cup in his hand with both hands: "Now there is still a period of time before the harvest of the farmland, everyone is idle and has nothing to do, I am thinking about helping them find some work, it just so happens that you still seem to have a shortage of manpower here, can you let the people in the village come to help, don't ask for any money, as long as the food is full." ”

"Uncle, you came in time, we are indeed short of manpower here." Chen Xiansong smiled when he heard it: "Bao Eat, three copper coins a day, it doesn't matter if there are more people." ”

Aslan said in a snort: "There are more than 60 strong people in the village, will Teacher Xiao Song feel that there are more?" ”

Chen Xiansong looked at the girl beside him: "Xiaomin, can you finish the arrangement?" ”

"No problem, if there are 60 more people, the time required for the project can be reduced to about three months." Bai Min calculated in his brain for a while, and then replied.

A few minutes later, Aslan happily came out of the small building, he really didn't expect this matter to be so simple, after all, the village had rejected Chen Xiansong's 'Shentai' plan before, he was originally worried that the other party would leave a pimple in his heart, but now it seems that his youngest son's two teachers are more broad-minded than he imagined.

When Aslan returned home, there were three old men waiting for him with nervous expressions, and when they saw him return, the three of them asked together, "How is it, did he agree?" ”

"Alright." At this point, Aslan finally felt that he could breathe.

When the three old men heard this, they all looked happy, and one of them said: "Great, in this way, we can save at least one or two months of food rations, and this winter, we should be able to survive steadily." ”
