Chapter 471: Refugees (I)
"Romong. I hope to have the next cooperation with you. "Hong in Yuanfan Town. There are many boats, and on one of the big ships that is about to open, a beautiful woman is standing on the bow of the boat. A man who was seeing off on the shore whispered.
If it weren't for this moment, the expressions on the faces of both men and women would be too solemn, and it would be a picture of saying goodbye to their lovers.
Rao is so, their appearance still attracts the attention of many passers-by, after all, such outstanding men and women are really rare.
It's just that behind the man stood an expressionless attendant, often after being glared at by him. It was cold, and even those who were curious about such a scene couldn't help but speed up their pace. Don't dare to see any more excitement.
"Avis, if I have the opportunity, I would like to work with you again, and it is really a pleasure to work with you. On the shore, Romon who came to see him off took over half-truthfully.
At a glance at him, although Luo Meng's words were a little frivolous, people couldn't help but want to reprimand, but with a pair of sincere eyes, the anger that Avexi had just raised was unconsciously extinguished.
This guy Romon is familiar with him. You really dare to say anything. However, the people who are ridiculed by him will not really get angry, is this a special personality charm?
"Well, you don't just say these nice things. You can get me 300 tons of grain this time. I'm very grateful to you, and next time, if there is a big business that can make money, I will definitely look for you to see that the ship has gradually drifted offshore, and Avisy said again.
As soon as the words came out, I felt that it was inappropriate, and I wanted to take it back, but I couldn't.
"Hehe, thank you then". His ridicule was seen through by the other party, and Romon was not panicked. Instead of being angry, he smiled and waved his hand at the distant beauty to show goodbye.
As the big ship faded away with the rest of the fleet, and the beautiful woman's face was blurred, Romon seemed to remember something, and hurriedly picked up a package from the hand of the attendant beside him, and threw it towards the deck of the ship.
"Avisie, come on!"
"Huh?" The package happened to be caught by Avisie, and Romon had just the right amount of strength, and she picked it up at once.
"What is this?" she looked at the man on the shore a little blankly, and the feeling in her hand seemed to be a few books, what did Romon mean by suddenly throwing it over?
"It was given to you by Elenie, you used to know each other, you can be regarded as friends, these things are the ones she asked me to bring you to relieve your boredom, Romon said with a smile.
Friends? How many times have you met, can you be considered friends?
Hearing this, Avixi's eyebrows raised slightly, and nodded: "Thank you for me." ”
The two men then waved goodbye, and it was not until Avecy had gone away in the boat that Romon turned around. looked at Lu Xiupei, who was expressionless on the side: "Let's go, let's hand over this gold to the Internal Affairs Department to deal with."
"Yes, sir. Lu Xiuji left behind Luo Meng very obediently, as if he had not seen what had just happened.
On the other side of the sea, grain ships are getting farther and farther away from the port. On the big ship where Avisy was, except for her, the rest of the people were all fierce.
Fortunately, Avisi has an outstanding identity and strong strength, and no one dares to disrespect her. Rao was so, and under that wanton gaze, Avisi didn't want to stay on the deck any longer, and returned to his solo cabin.
As soon as he walked into the single cabin, Avisy carefully closed the wooden door from the inside, sat on the edge of the bed, put the package on the table, gently untied the tied bow, and opened it twice, revealing a few books inside.
"What the hell is Romon doing?" said Avisy secretly strange as it turned out to be a few ordinary books.
Then she opened it, the books in the package were some books that the noble lady loved to read, she flipped through it a few times, the doubts in her heart deepened, and after thinking for a while, she couldn't think of any reason, so she had to put it down with a wry smile.
Avecy's deal with Romon this time made Romon make a lot of money.
As soon as the money arrived, Romon only deposited some of it in the treasury, and most of the money was invested in the construction of Treasure Island.
Nowadays, Treasure Island couldn't be more likely. Not only is it better and better, but the money invested can indeed make the island's gold and silver famous.
And as time went on, the weather became colder and colder, and the first fleets sent out by Romon were dispatched. Finally, I want to come back, this is the nearest port to stop, because something happened, I asked the passing ship to bring back the letter.
After getting the news, Romon was very excited. But as the lord of a place, he has learned to be calm, and unlike his calmness, some people can't suppress this happiness.
"My Lord Fafer, don't walk around, I'm dizzy. In the halls of Yuanfan Town, Romon in a cotton druid robe sat in the center, holding a cup of tea in his hand, constantly sipping it gently, while his good friend and loyal subordinate Fafer walked back and forth with a pair of hands behind his back.
Sitting on the side were Nick and Su, the current mayor of Yuanfan Town, looking at the anxious appearance of the old man who came to Fafer, Sukal was embarrassed to be a prince, and Nick, who had a brotherhood with Fafer, could say whatever he wanted.
"Aren't I in a hurry? I said that I came back in the past two days, and I have been waiting for two days, and there is no movement. Do you think I'm in a hurry? This is the first time that Tertashaw has been to sea, if it can be successful. Next time, I can go out to sea to lead the troops and continue to fight those demons!" "Fafer's martial arts have been improving slowly in the past year, and the reason is simple. For the past year, the county has been safe and sound, not even fighting, and the edge forest is according to Romon orders. He was no longer allowed to enter, and he wanted to improve his combat skills, but he had no way, so he was naturally annoyed.
If this trip to sea can be successful, next time, he can apply to use the demon slaying to improve his level.
and his excitement, Romon is also looking forward to it, but he is very restrained.
This is his first attempt, and if this batch can be carried out smoothly and the results are good, the population problem will be solved if it continues in the future.
This is no small matter, and it's no wonder that Romon is a little excited.
In this world, there are two things that can best judge whether a lord is strong, one is the area and level of land, and the other is the size of the population.
These two things are indispensable, and now there is a lot of land in Romon, but in terms of population, it is greatly insufficient.
"My Lord Fafer, wait a little longer, nothing will happen. Nick lifted his head. Then he said comfortingly.
At this moment, someone came in and reported: "Report to your lordship, the fleet that went to sea has returned." Just this sentence immediately made the people in the hall excited.
"Are they back?" Nick was the first to ask.
"Yes, Lord Nick, the fleet is docked. The squire replied, "It's on the harbor of Yuanfan Town now." ”
"Very good, Nick, Sukal, Fafer. Let's take a look!" Romon finally exhaled softly, not only was Fafer anxious, but even he was too, it's just that, as the lord of a land, he couldn't show too much obviousness.
On the 25th of January, the first fleet sent out by Lord Viscount Tetashaw finally returned a short time after the New Year.
On that day, the lively scene on the port. But many years later, it is still talked about.
Residents in the vicinity heard that many people from the Inner 6 area had moved in, and they rushed to the port to watch.
First, there is the watchtower above the shelter weir. The lookout above, signaling that the fleet had arrived.
Immediately, a pilot was sent out, and he went in a small boat to meet him, and then he would direct the fleet to allow an orderly entry into Yuanfan Town.
It has to be said that although this system is simple, it is very effective and very helpful for port management.
If you have a heart, Jiang Zhong nodded.
The platform near the pier was crowded with people watching Reran.
The arrival of an entire fleet was a major event, especially when it was said to be full of refugees.
The fleet approached, and it was already seen from afar, it was sailing very slowly, the pilots were guiding, and the captains of the ships were also keenly paying attention to every movement of the ships, and making adjustments.
When the first boat docked, Shakat jumped up. He took off his hat and saluted Romon and said, "My lord, I'm back." ”
"How's it going, are there any casualties?"
"My lord, on the land of 6, we unfortunately encountered a demon army and lost twenty-one people!" Shakat replied, "At sea, six more died. ”
"Oh, not bad, I'll give Nick the death list later, and he'll give him a bereavement.
"Yes, sir!"
"What about the refugees above?" said Romon inquiringly.
"The refugees are generally safe, except for a few who have died of illness, my lord, I think you can be satisfied with this, when they went out to sea, it was eight hundred and sixty-one people. There are still 819 left."
"Oh, yes, you've done a good job, now order all the fleets to dock and get all the refugees on the docks!" said Rommon.
"Yes, sir!" said Shakat and turned to the crew, "all attention!
The entire crew immediately acted as ordered.
Some ran to the big banner, some ran to the spinnaker. Some went to control the turning and winding of the sail line, and some people began to drive out the refugees in the cabin one by one.
Groups of frightened refugees were led off the boat by soldiers, all of whom looked yellow and thin, and women were holding children. Follow behind the husband and the husband in front. Also with panic.
Let the people who have already begun to enjoy a peaceful life sympathize, and add a little satisfaction to their current life, and the stability in the next few years, with the great credit of this refugee migration, will make people cherish their present life very much.
That's where it comes in.
