The manor is under construction, the smelting workshop is also under construction, and in the case of not moving a penny of Lockejun and not leviing taxes, he is stunned to put out a hot posture, but the manpower is still too small, and the progress is not fast, Jones is a little lonely, urging Yang Yi to conscript, Yang Yi told him that he will give him money and power after the New Year, and it is not yet time to let him organize the training of the soldiers for the time being, in addition to sorting out the training of the soldiers, you can also talk about love with Belle.

The construction of the wind and fire, the people of Rock County have seen it, it is the winter that there is nothing to do, the knight's kindness to send money can not be forgotten, things can't afford to come out, but also can make a lot of effort, so someone came to help, these people are also idle, what I didn't expect is that to help, the knight lord not only cares about food, but also sends ten copper coins a day.

The people of Rock County did not believe in such a good thing, and they were embarrassed to accept it at first, but Yang Yi told them very seriously that this was the income of their labor, and if there was labor, there would be a harvest, and Rock County would not raise lazy people, but it would never make a hard-working person poor.

Look! The knight lord is the knight lord, the consciousness is higher than them, and the words he says make people feel warm in their hearts, there is food and drink, and there is money to take, just to help, where to find such a good thing? The people of Rock County are boiling again, anyway, the winter is cold, and they have everything to do, they have come to Yang Yi's manor to help.

Felling wood, building houses, repairing houses, even the women were not idle, helping to make curtains, carpets, washing...... Every day the manor is in full swing, Yang Yi's money also floats out like flowing water, old Sero sees it in his eyes, a little anxious, he, the knight master, makes a lot of money, and spends money very well, and he doesn't understand very much, why do you have to give money when people from Rock County come to help?

Yang Yi smiled and patted Old Sero on the shoulder, telling him that it was because of the kindness and kindness of the knight lord, the real reason was that Yang Yi wanted to cultivate the concept of the people of Rock County, that is, labor must be rewarded, once this habit is formed, it will become different from the people in other noble territories, because no nobleman will give the commoners an equivalent harvest of labor, except for Rock County, over time, once such a concept is formed, the people of Rock County will become an alternative like him and be tied to his chariot.

Someone helped, the speed of manor construction became faster, and even the big smelting workshop also had some appearance, although everyone didn't know what Yang Yi was going to do, and no one asked, Yang Yi, the knight lord, brought a lot of excitement to the people of Rock County, and everyone had a smile on their faces when they worked in full swing every day, all of which brought inexplicable confidence to the people of Rock County, and they all had a feeling that with their strange knight lord, their lives would change dramatically.

The day before the New Year, Yang Yi paid his wages and told the people of Rock County who came to help that in order to thank the people of Rock County for their labor, Yang Yi decided to hold a large bonfire party in the manor on New Year's Day, hoping that everyone would come to participate, and the dinner was provided by his knight lord, and there would be major news announced......

Yang Yi didn't understand the customs of Rock County, so he handed it over to the housekeeper Old Sero to do it, and Old Sero muttered that he didn't understand why Yang Yi wanted to invite people from Rock County to dinner, wasn't his prestige enough? Yang Yi just smiled, the gap in knowledge made him too lazy to explain, it was enough to sell well, and whoever didn't listen to him Yang Yi's words next would be ungrateful, and everyone would betray their relatives, and Yang Yi would also kill a chicken to show the monkey, to put it bluntly, these are all means.

Although old Sero did not understand, he was very serious in his work, leading people to decorate the estate with evergreen branches and leaves such as pine branches, holly, ivy, etc., and directing the servants and cooks brought by Jones to prepare steaks smeared with mustard and some smoked pork and wine...... Huge branches were also piled up in the manor, and it looked jubilant.

Before the New Year, the children began to put on new clothes, playing around the manor, while curiously watching the old Sero with people busy, Yang Yi was very satisfied with this effect, carefully prepared some clothes, and changed into a noble robe that looked both heroic and neat, his hair had grown long for a few months, and he was combed up, but he was not braiding.

In the afternoon of the next day, the people of Rock County began to come to Yang Yi's manor one after another, the men were not sloppy, although some did not wear new clothes, the old clothes were also clean, the women all changed into new clothes, and the children were too, but they did not come empty-handed, some brought honey, home-brewed beer, grilled meatloaf, and two pieces of white bread...... He even brought a small bench with him.

Things are limited, but the heart is there, everyone automatically gathered around the tall wood to talk and laugh, the children are playing, the adults are chatting, with Yang Yi giving them silver coins and the remuneration for work, this is the happiest New Year ever in Rock County, in the past, everyone would always be in their own broken homes to roast the fire, chat, and worry about the spring of the coming year.

After the laughter, some people began to perform, and the burlesque performances were vulgar but popular, and often entertained the men, women, and children of Lockshire for a while.

In the evening, except for some old people and children who were too young, almost all the people of Lockeshire came, and more than a thousand people gathered in the manor, and it was really very lively, and the bonfires were lit, and the girls of Lockeshire danced around the bonfire with their arms on their shoulders.

The food and drink were also taken out, and there was no table, so everyone helped to divide the roasted meat, bread, and wine...... In the laughter, the sky gradually darkened, Yang Yi still did not rush out, he had to appear in the most enthusiastic atmosphere, he sorted out his clothes in the study, and was especially satisfied with the white silk lace on the cuffs, which really looked a bit like a noble lord.

The mirror is a magic mirror that hides the queen, and whenever Yang Yi tidies up his clothes, he will ask the queen in the magic mirror: "Who is the most handsome man in the world?"

The queen replied every time that it was his noble knight lord, Yang Yi was very satisfied, and felt that training the queen was much more interesting than training the princess, and even when the queen endured the rampage, but had to flatter his most handsome man, Yang Yi was about to swell, just when he wanted to ask a few more words, a shout came from outside: "Lord knight, master knight...... The people of Rock County wish the knight a happy new year......"

The shouts were like thunder, wave after wave, Yang Yi was very satisfied with this effect, and walked out with the little match girl Erin, seeing Yang Yi come out, the cheers rose even higher, Yang Yi smiled and walked to the bonfire, waved his hand around, and said loudly: "I have a few good news to tell you." ”

The people of Rock County were waiting for good news, and when they heard Yang Yi's words, they all quieted down, and more than a thousand pairs of eyes looked at Yang Yi without blinking, Yang Yi raised his voice and said loudly: "My dear people of Rock County, first of all, I wish you all a happy New Year. ”

Yang Yi smiled and blessed him, there should be applause at this time, but the people of Rock County are too bad to come, the leader spoke, and no one reacted, but he still looked at him blankly, too eyeless!

Yang Yi coughed helplessly, hiding his embarrassment: "After the New Year, the construction of Rock County will be carried out, and I need everyone to cut trees, mine, and build roads...... Of course, none of this was done in vain, there were people who were willing to work, and the pay for a day was twenty copper coins. ”

The people of Lockecounty are not afraid of work, they are afraid of not working, what is the concept of twenty copper coins a day? Let's put it this way, six silver coins for a month, enough to feed a large family, and suddenly the people cheered: "We work, we have strength, we listen to the ...... of the knight master."

What the people of Rock County wanted to hear the most was this, and the atmosphere suddenly became warm, Yang Yi waved his hand with a smile, and continued: "However, everyone has their wages, and the tax should be paid. ”

The most hated thing for the people of Rock County is to pay taxes, and when they heard the word pay taxes, they suddenly fell silent, and some people even muttered in a low voice: "I thought there was something different about this knight master, and he didn't have to pay taxes!"

Yang Yi wanted this effect, his eyes widened, and he yelled at that person: "Paying taxes is not for me to enjoy, I tell you today, the tax is not high, one-tenth of the tax, everyone can afford this tax, what do you think I am giving you such a high price for hired labor, master? It's not for you to have extra money to pay taxes!"

"What will I do with the money from the taxes? I promise you that not a single copper coin will be used against me, I will use the money from the taxes to build roads, hospitals, schools, so that every child can learn, and every sick person can be treated, and I will make Lockecounty beautiful, and I will train soldiers and protect Locke......up?"

Of course, no one will leave, no one is stupid, except for Rock County, there is no place that will pay them twenty copper coins a day, not to mention, one-tenth of the tax is not very high, just like Yang Yi said, the loss is not much, but if there are hospitals, schools, and roads, it is definitely a good thing.

After calculating this account, someone immediately shouted: "I support the knight lord to levy taxes, everything for us to think of the knight lord, there is only such a person in the world, can all the money make the knight lord out of it? The people of Lockshire are not ungrateful people......"

"I'm for that, I'm for that...... Resolutely support the knight lord ......" Soon the voices of approval and support formed a trend, and Yang Yi also breathed a sigh of relief, and now he can be regarded as having a firm foothold in Rock County.
