At noon, the hill camp is always deserted, and most of the leaders work outside under the leadership of the village leader, and only return to the camp when it is time for dinner.

The large canteen, which can accommodate hundreds of people, is also deserted, with only about 30 people enjoying free lunch here, who are members of the second villager group who take turns to rest.

"Why is it sweet potatoes again?"

A middle-aged leader looked at the two steaming roasted sweet potatoes in the food bowl, and couldn't help frowning, although the sweet potatoes tasted okay, but eating them every day would not only be greasy, but also a lot of farts.

"There is not much flour in the camp anymore, so if you want to eat brown bread, you can go to the small canteen. ”

The canteen man threw a piece of roasted oily wild boar meat into the food bowl of the people, and said that he was a serious worker, and he had always been very unkind to these guys who could only eat in the big canteen.

"This meat is well roasted, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and your skills are almost as good as the chef in the small canteen. ”

was robbed by the guy, and instead of getting angry, the leader slapped the guy's ass flatteringly, because he knew very well that if he offended the canteen guy, it would be difficult to eat a good piece of meat later.

"Even if you have knowledge, you are the one who has been the team leader. ”

The man glanced at the leader with his nostrils to the sky, this is the posture of the chef of the small canteen, Lord Victor said, the man can be called a chef if he does well, and a chef can be called a chef if he does a good job, and a chef is a master like a painter. From then on, the men in the camp began to look at people through their nostrils, regardless of whether they were skilled or not.

Hearing the man's words, the middle-aged leader's body stiffened significantly, and then he casually held his food bowl and found a place to sit alone.

"Oops, I forgot, this is the purple cane wine that the team leader rewarded me with last time, come, come, everyone try it. ”

A young man shouted, and he was surrounded by other leaders from the second group.

"Little Robert, I heard that you have been recommended by the team leader to join the work sharing system, and now I am waiting for Mrs. Lilia's approval. A villager took a sip of purple cane wine and said with envy.

"Hehe, as long as everyone works hard, everyone has a chance. Little Robert spoke modestly, but his smug expression was unmistakable.

"Robert, can you tell me what this division of work system means?"

It was Wood, who was curious about everything in the hill camp compared to his son, who only knew how to keep his head down and eat.

Wood and his son were promoted to the rank of leader of the second group, and naturally became members of the second group. As a latecomer, Wood didn't know much about the division system, he only knew that it was difficult to join the system.

"Hehe, the work division system is to work for different points. As for the use of the work。。。。。。。 That's big!"

Robert paused, he still had a sense of superiority over this latecomer who was much older than him, but Robert would not forget that the group leader asked him to win over these ordinary group members.

"Do you know why the group leader and those old team members never eat in the big cafeteria? Tell you, they all eat in the small cafeteria!"

"Do you know the small canteen? I don't know? It doesn't matter, you just need to know that the food in the small canteen can't even be eaten by ordinary nobles!"

"If you want to eat in the small cafeteria, you must have a job!"

"Do you see those beautiful wooden houses in the camp? If you want to live in them, you have to have a job!"

"Do you know what the bathroom is? Don't look at me, I don't know, but if you want to get in, you have to have a job!"

"One job can be exchanged for a copper sol, only a fool would change it. ”

Looking at the envious villagers around him, Robert took a sip of purple cane wine, smiled faintly, and spit out the last sentence.

"Labor can be exchanged for land! And it's a fief!"

A pig bone fell into the wooden bowl, which fell out of Paul's mouth, and the father and son were both in the same shape when they opened their mouths.

The other villagers laughed, they were all very familiar with this scene.

Wood wondered if he had heard it wrong, it was a fief, a land that would take three generations of a family to serve the lord. Once they get a fief, it means that they become vassals and step into the upper class of society! This is the goal of all the people.

Wood had thought that if he worked hard, and his son worked hard, and then he had a grandson who worked hard, maybe his great-grandson could become a vassal, but he couldn't see it. It is precisely because of this that many vassal families miss out on vassals. I'm working so hard, what if my grandson is lazy? Anyone may have a few unscrupulous offspring.

Wood wanted to speak, but his throat seemed to be stuck, and he couldn't produce a clear syllable for a long time, he grabbed a glass of water and poured it into his mouth, he smoothed his throat, and was about to speak, when a familiar voice asked him a question.

"How can we join the division of work?" was just Paul's voice.

Good boy! I thought of it with Lao Tzu! Wood looked at his young and immature foodie son and his burning eyes with satisfaction. Wood secretly decided that no matter how difficult it was to join the division system, he would give it his all!

"Now to join the division of work system, it is difficult! Very difficult! First of all, you must have the status of a consular citizen. Secondly, you must work very diligently and be one of the best in the group. Third, it needs the recommendation of the team leader and the approval of Mrs. Lilia. The team leader can only recommend one person a month, hehe, don't think that you can get a recommendation by patting the team leader's ass, but Mrs. Lilia is staring at the team leader's every move. So, if you want to think of a crooked idea, save it. I was recommended by the team leader, but you say, how is my job?"

"Well done, I'm not as good as you. One of the villagers nodded.

Wood also agreed, although Robert often patted the team leader's ass, but when he worked, he was diligent and meticulous, which can be said to be meticulous. For example, the last time he knitted baskets, he made more baskets than others, and the baskets were still straight and round. Wood had to admit that Robert was not only hardworking, but also had a good hand.

"Let me tell you another secret, I heard the team leader say that the work division system will soon be capped, with a maximum of 700 people, and now there are more than 400 people. Therefore, whoever slacks off is doomed. ”

Robert's words made all the villagers look at each other, as if sparks were bursting out.

"Don't all stare at your own people, if you have the ability, you can fight with others. The group leader said, let everyone work hard, if our group can build a village in advance, everyone can join the work division system, and finally the group that built the village will have no choice. ”

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the atmosphere immediately became harmonious again.

Robert noticed everyone's expressions, and was secretly proud in his heart, and the leader of the group specially told him to encourage these ordinary team members, so that their group could become the second group to build a village. When the time comes, the leader of the group will become the village chief, and he will definitely not treat him badly.

"Joining the division of labor system, it can't be regarded as a vassal, and now we have only 2,000 acres of land, which has been sealed, and most of them are guards and craftsmen. ”

"Therefore, whoever builds the village first can open up the wasteland first, and then the land will be distributed according to the division of work, and those who exceed 10 acres will be vassals. Robert added while the iron was hot.

"Then let's do a good job! It must be the second village to be built. Paul's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and said excitedly.

"Your father and son are newcomers, the leader must have told you, let me remind you again, the rules of the hill camp are big, you have to walk on the right, you can't defecate anywhere, you are also particular about water, you will be punished if you violate the rules, don't expect the team leader to intercede for you, let alone lead the people, even if the team leader violates the rules, he will be dismissed. Don't we have a ready-made example here!" Robert said, pouting at the middle-aged lord who was sitting alone.

"I really don't know how there can be such a cheeky person, who has been kicked out of the work sharing system, and is embarrassed to stay in our group. Another villager said in disgust.

Benson ate his lunch in silence, and he heard all the words of these people, but he didn't say anything, because he was used to it.

Benson is the leader of the villagers, once.

When he was in the Eastern Province, Benson drove a carriage for the town mayor, and after arriving at Victor, he was elected by the people to be the leader of the villagers.

After he became the team leader, he was still competent and made a lot of contributions to the construction of the hill camp.

But he carried it, in the hands of women.

The marriage of the people is actually a man and a woman living together, and if the man is unproductive, the woman will remarry with the child. But Benson forgets that Master Victor does not allow the village leader to use his power to steal someone else's partner. And he made that mistake.

So, he was removed from his post, and Benson was not convinced, and he defended himself because the woman was also willing.

Master Victor listened to his explanation quietly, and only said one sentence: I have the final say!

Benson was removed from his post and kicked out of the work system. Then, Master Victor gave Benson two options, take the money from the work and get out. Or, write off all your work and stay here.

Benson chose the latter. He knew very well that to fuck off was to die, and he couldn't do without this beautiful and tidy camp, where he sweated and where he carried his hopes. He was reluctant.

So, Benson was still eating his lunch, but soon he didn't have to.

"Benson, my lord wants to see you. One of the guards walked into the cafeteria and said to Benson.

Benson was surprised, but he stood up at once, cleaned the table, and returned the rest of the food to the man, which he could continue to eat in the evening. After that, he and the guards left the big cafeteria.

Benson entered the upper camp under the guidance of the guards, he was slightly excited, he had not been here for a long time. But instead of leading him into the office, the guards led him directly to a fence and rang a small bell.

Benson's pupils narrowed, he knew that this was the forbidden area of the hill camp, something big must have happened, and it had something to do with him!

Soon, the door to the fence was opened, and a man leaned out to look at Benson and said, "Come in." ”

Benson knew him, he was Busso, one of the few people who could freely enter the restricted area, because Busso knew a lot of things, and he was trusted by Lord Victor.

"Don't look around, everything here can't be revealed. Busso said as he walked.

Benson followed Busso with his head down, his eyes not blinking, he knew that there were many secrets here, especially about Purple Cane, which represented wealth.

After entering a small cabin, Benson saw the lord and five people, one of whom was still an acquaintance of his, and the other who had been removed from his post as the leader of the village, Butz.

"Benson, you're here, come and sit. Victor beckoned to his former subordinate.

"Good day, Lord Victor. Benson held back the excitement in his heart and saluted Victor.

Victor smiled and said to the two, "Buts, Benson, I called you here today to get you out of the hill camp!"

Boots and Benson, pale, didn't ask any questions, they were waiting for the next step.

Seeing the performance of the two, Victor nodded with satisfaction, he stood up, walked to a wooden board with a map drawn, and said: "You see, this is our hill camp, and from here 45 kilometers to the east is the large free camp in the east. And 50 kilometers to the northeast is Pinghu Village. ”

Victor clicked on the map with a stick.

"This large camp in the east is actually a disguised free-for-all camp for the Chebman family, where they secretly mine for silver. ”

"Now, there are signs that Pinghu Village and the Chebman family camp have been contacted. ”

"I intend to establish a free camp in the middle of these two camps, and you will preside over the camp. ”

Victor tapped on the map again.

"Your Excellency, do you mean that we should cut the connection between the two camps?" asked Benson boldly.

"No, you don't have to do anything, just build a free private land here. Victor continued: "Now, there are about 100 freedmen scattered in the territory, most of them mountain people, and they will come to you as long as you build a camp. I want you to keep a firm grip on these mountain people. ”

Victor believed that the alchemy mastiff could drive those mountain dwellers to a predetermined area, where they would be integrated.

"My lord, the mountain people have a strong temperament and are accustomed to obeying the strong, and we are afraid that we will not be able to suppress them. Butz said stiffly.

"I've got helpers for you, and this is Brute, Cowbett, Conley, and Diff. ”

It was only then that Butz and Benson looked at the four strangers who were wooden, and they saw that they were all strong, especially the guy named Brute, who was almost as big as the big Renault.

"Brute Bull and Corbett are family-trained dead soldiers, and their strength is not inferior to that of trainee knights. Conley and Def are well-versed in a variety of crafts and skills and are family-trained craftsmen. ”

Victor smiled as he watched Boots and Benson's faces turn pale to pale.

"I'm sure you've already guessed it, Renault and Busso, like them, are secret forces in my hands, and this secret is not even known to Captain Nelson. ”

Boots and Benson stiffened, they had all heard that the great nobles would secretly train the dead, who had undergone brutal training, were loyal to their masters, powerful but inhumane. Now, the legendary dead are in front of them, and they will work with them.

"Don't worry, since you have been made aware of these secrets, it means that you have become a core member of the family, and as long as you do not betray me, you will not be purged. Will you betray me?"

Victor still maintained a graceful smile, but Butz and Benson felt that this smile was extremely dangerous, and they hurriedly replied, "My lord, we will never betray you! ”

"Very well, I trust you. You must remember that you have left the hill camp to find a way out because you have been ostracized, and you must not show any flaws in front of the mountain people. ”

"If Pinghu Village or the Chebman family camp contact you, you will behave like the head of the Free People. Do you understand?"

"Understood!" After the panic, Benson and Boots felt very excited, they are now the core members of the family, this is a step to the sky?

"If you want to contact me, just tell the bull. In the same way, the bull will convey my commands to you. In normal times, they are still your men. ”

"Do you have any questions?" asked Victor softly.

"My lord, when are we leaving?" Benson and Boots looked at each other and asked excitedly, it felt so good to be valued!

"Busso will take you to the temporary garrison and announce your exile, and when the cattle have joined you, you will set out at once. Victor continued with a straight face: "Can you not be so excited! You are exiled! Not canonized!"

After Busso left the room with the two former team leaders with a sad face, Victor walked to the map, covered the location of Pinghu Village with his hands, and sneered: "Pinghu Village, 500 people, 5,000 acres of cultivated land, 6,000 acres of lakes, can you escape from the palm of my hand?"

Victor, on the other hand, stared at the Chebman family camp, deep and cold.

"I'm the lord here!"
