Chapter 160: Charles Splashed with Cold Water (IV.)
Samuel, who had not been comforted by his nephew and niece, stiffened before putting Luna back on the ground, muttering that it was becoming more and more unlovable, and then snorted coldly and threw himself into the sofa not far away.
"Big brother, you've worked hard. I didn't want to see my uncle come back this time, and suddenly played the uncle, Luna turned her head to look at Charles, and said with a little distress.
"Actually, it's fine. My uncle taught me a lot. Charles smiled at his sister.
"Count you boy with a conscience. Samuel scrambled up from the couch and raised his chin at Charles.
Luna looked at Samuel, who was tossing around the room, and only felt that he was still not tired.
If you were really tired, you would have gone to the guest room and slept a lot.
"You've all worked hard all the way, come and eat, I specially asked the kitchen to prepare your two favorite food. Olivia, who walked in with the servants, greeted everyone.
"It's better to be a sister-in-law!" Samuel salivated and smiled flatteringly at Olivia.
"No matter how good it is, it's my wife. Sit down and eat!" Silas glared at his faceless brother, and the words were not too obvious.
After sitting down and waiting for the eldest brother to share the food, Samuel didn't bother to pay attention to the topic of finding a daughter-in-law, and looked directly at Luna and asked, "By the way, didn't you raise a difficult little griffin, why didn't I see it? And Jack's griffin?"
"It's all sent to the trainer. At the mention of Ali, Luna sighed, that little thing had been badly trained by Carl recently, and when she saw her, her eyes were full of tears, so that she didn't dare to go to see it now.
"Well, it's all my fault, big brother, I feel like I've missed a lot of things!" Samuel sighed faintly.
Silas, who turned around, looked at the large piece of meat specially distributed for his brother on the fork, and raised his eyebrows: "Then why don't you go home and eat now?"
"Don't don't, big brother, I was wrong......" Looking at the fragrant and steaming meat, Samuel subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and immediately changed to a flattering smile, took the initiative to pick up the plate, put it under the meat, and held it, "Thank you, big brother, big brother is the best!"
Silas shook his head and snorted coldly before pushing the meat into the plate Samuel was holding with his knife, turning back to his place.
"How's the homeless settled?" asked Gotte, enjoying the little greens on his plate.
Samuel cut a large piece of meat, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it before replying:
"It's still going to be some death, but most of the displaced people are fine. The dead were also those who came further south.
If you want to say that this is a really good way for them to build their own houses, there have been a few times when they made trouble because of the dead, and they were digested internally without the presence of our soldiers.
I thought that homeless people like them had to huddle together, but later I found out that this life has improved, but I don't care about those, it is true that there is food, drink and housing!"
"But what's the trouble?" Silas looked at his younger brother who didn't even have a good look, and knew that he was afraid that he had suffered a little along the way, Guan Cui lowered his head and looked at his plate, out of sight.
"There will always be some trouble, but it is not the homeless, those people are really miserable, they have food, shelter, land and planting, they are quite content.
Although there were some conflicts with the transferred soldiers at the beginning, they got along for a long time, but they were able to understand each other.
Thanks to Charles, my principle was to kill and pull down all those who make trouble, and I was honest after a few times.
He was a soft-hearted little guy, and persuaded me for a long time to say that it was not easy for those people, and that he wanted to appease them, and he also ran to deliver food to the homeless people, which scared me a lot at the time, but it turned out to be good.
It's the happiest lords who are making a fuss about tax cuts, and there are some problems, I secretly look at it, and I'm afraid there are a lot of people in their hands.
I've sorted out the list, and I've collected some evidence, so I'll go back to the big brother and see if it's them who have always had to cut taxes in the past few years. It's better to do it early. ”
Speaking of those lords, Samuel's tone turned gloomy.
The Snow Wolf has always been fierce, and has always been open-minded about the lord's private soldiers.
After all, most private soldiers say that they are private soldiers, but in fact they are tenants, who farm on weekdays and only take up arms when there is something, usually to protect their rented land, and they cannot be called soldiers completely, and there is still a big difference between them and the regular army that is purely supported by the state.
Only a very small part of the people are the armed forces that the lord spends money to feed, and these people are basically wandering within the scope of the lord's land, suppressing bandits, helping to collect rent, because the lord also has to bear the country's taxes, so usually, there are very few such people, and most of them are related to the lord's family, but there are no more than a hundred people, and the few may only be a dozen.
But these lords who were highlighted by Samuel were remarkable, and it was even said that there were robbers among them.
Silas knew when he heard this, he didn't need to see the list, a person's name had already appeared in his mind, nodded, and after a moment of silence, he looked at Charles and asked:
"Didn't I tell you to listen to your uncle before I left?
Charles pursed his lips, looked at Silas, and organized his words before saying, "Those outcasts just need some necessities, and I know that I am reckless, but don't you also say that they are likely to become civilians of our Snow Wolf Country in the future?" ”
"If you can't guarantee your own safety, how can you protect others?
Are you sure that when the displaced people get the necessities, they don't want more?
Your uncle's approach may have been harsh, but the situation was chaotic in the early days of the resettlement, and they were driven through, mostly with uneasiness and resentment. Some of the blood is not shed, which is not enough to deter.
On the contrary, you have bent them so much, have you ever imagined what would have happened if your uncle had not stood behind you?"
"I ......" Charles lowered his head when he heard this, in fact, after that incident, when he saw the anxious Samuel, he reflected on himself, but because of what he did, it played a role, and there will inevitably be some complacency in his heart, Silas has no words of certainty, undoubtedly pouring cold water on his head.
The atmosphere at the table was also a little stagnant for a while.
"Okay, okay, what's there to teach, won't you say it well?" Gotte glared at Silas, this king has been in office for a long time, all of them are so stinky, and they don't care about the occasion, so why don't you finish this reunion dinner?
"Teacher......" Silas turned his head to look at Gotte with some frustration.
