Chapter 41: Pig Teammates
When the nine captains of the guards came to Owen's office, they were extremely warmly received by Owen, either shouting for warmth, or talking about homely things, and from time to time mentioning some hard work in the city defense. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Everyone was confused by this scene, and in the end, Owen even proposed what kind of work advanced individuals, and everyone had it, but the number of gold coins rewarded was different.
Before leaving, Owen also saw off in person, although everyone was skeptical at first, but after receiving a reward of hundreds of gold coins, how could they care so much, and all of them said goodbye to Owen enthusiastically.
As everyone knows, this scene was seen by people with a heart, such as Rouen, after leaving the administrative hall, Rouen never left, and took his guards to wait at the door, coldly watching his four henchmen and Owen laugh and say goodbye.
Unlike Morgan and Pieru, Rouen climbed all the way up, relying on nothing else, or that ruthlessness, just from his penchant for drinking blood, it can be seen that Rouen is absolutely ruthless in doing things.
With a gloomy face, Rouen changed his guard and drove the carriage to the Viscount's Palace...
"My lord, what do you think about this?" Morgan was sitting in the living room of the Viscount's Palace, holding a wine glass, and looked at Walter with a nonchalant expression.
"Hmph, this Owen is so stupid..."Walter leaned back against the wide chaise longue, and in his arms two beautiful-faced, well-dressed, and spring-exposed maids held wine glasses, and carefully fed Walter's mouth full of oil stars.
The three of Morgan came out of the administrative hall, except for Rouen, who stayed to observe, the other two came directly to the Baron's Palace to report today's events.
These three henchmen were all pulled up by themselves, and they didn't expect them to do anything earth-shattering, but at least they had a little brain, and if something happened, they could block the gun for themselves!
But looking at Pieru, who was still at a loss, he had a dark anger in his heart, such an obvious situation, he couldn't see it, and he couldn't help but be a little annoyed for a while, and said with a displeased face: "Pieru, what are you thinking?"
Seeing Walter's unhappy face, Pieru hurriedly stood up, following Walter for so many years, he didn't know Walter's thoughts, he must have thought that he had no brains, but if he really had no brains, how would he be reused by Walter.
Seeing Pieru think for a moment, he said his question: "My lord, what kind of person is Owen, you don't know yet, Kliman has relied on Owen in recent years, biting the tax revenue of Dale County, although it is not much, but at least it keeps the daily expenses of the Viscount's Mansion..."
"My lord...", Pieru put on a profound look: "I don't think Owen would do such a stupid thing, this kind of scheme to make us suspicious of each other is too simple!"
If Rogge will definitely applaud here, it is simply a pig teammate and a god mending knife, although the guess is correct, but in this kind of situation where the three of them are completely incompatible, and they don't know what happened inside, such a guess will only make people think in a bad way.
Listening to Pieru's words, Walter looked at Pieru in surprise, he didn't have any doubts in his heart that it was impossible, and Pieru's words happened to be at the key point, I really don't know how Pieru, who is usually slow to others, became so smart today.
"Actually, I agree with what Pieru said...", and Morgan said: "Gurouen said that Owen seems to know a lot about us, and it is very detailed, so there is a problem here......"
Pieru was thrilled to see that the Viscount looked at him differently, and even Morgan, who was usually very smart, thought so.
Why don't you show yourself more vigorously, your face immediately straightened, her brows furrowed, and she analyzed seriously: "I think this matter should be related to those subordinates!"
"You mean our men?" Morgan said disapprovingly when he heard this, "Aren't you afraid that that's also Owen's plan?"
"I..."
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Walter raised his hand to stop, not caring and said: "Rouen is coming soon, just listen to his words in a while, how big of a matter can a viscount who is about to die make? Just his more than 1,000 guards? hum~~"
"But there are still a thousand vigilantes..."Morgan frowned slightly, although he agreed with Walter's words, but he couldn't underestimate the viscount.
Not to mention anything else, I don't know what kind of people I bring with me? When a bully beats people, it's okay, but when it really starts, it's really hard to say who can do it.
"I just like your cautious temperament!" Hearing Morgan's words, Walter laughed: "Charles took my money, I spread the news yesterday, and now you think Owen will still believe the commander who just came up?!"
"But," Morgan added, but Walter waved his hand to stop him.
"No, but!" Saying this, Walter's face turned gloomy: "Now the lives of the Charles family are in my hands, so I can't help him not listen to me!"
"I see, my lord is scheming!"
"Now, look at what tricks that waste man has!"
While the two were flattering, Rouen walked in......
At this time, Rogge was chatting with the prison warden Marven and drinking tea!
"It's worthy of the black tea of the south of the empire, tsk, this taste!" Marven's mood in the past two days was extremely happy, he had been a prison warden for a few years, and he didn't have any oil and water at all, not to mention that his wife and children were starving with him, and there were not even many people who were looking at him.
But now it's different, in the afternoon, Lord Owen actually summoned him personally, and gave him a reward of 1,000 gold, which is a thousand gold, even if he does his original position, he can't earn it for the rest of his life.
Of course, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that what he did was affirmed by Lord Viscount, remembering the scene when Charles asked him to do it two days ago, he was still looking forward and backward, Marven sighed in his heart!
Now it seems that my decision at that time was very clear, and it is true that there is no wrong thing about high risk and high reward!
But who doesn't want to be famous, who doesn't want to be a master?! After this incident, Marven made up his mind to continue to follow Rogge.
From that day on, Marven no longer dared to underestimate the child in front of him, especially today, when he saw what Lord Owen decided to ask Rogge, Marven knew that whether he could be promoted and raised as a leader in the future depends on the child in front of him!
Now he is offering it like an ancestor, and while sipping tea, he looked at Rogge with a flattering smile on his face, and said, "Your Excellency..."
"Why bother to see the outside like this, just call me brother like Charles!" Rogge said proudly waving his hand.
In fact, it's not that he is arrogant, but Rogge really can't get used to the kind of face that is inferior and considers himself an ancestor, and for a few days, Rogge has wanted to vomit.
Marven's eyes lit up after hearing this, and after decades of experience, he naturally saw that Rogge's actions were not hypocrisy, Marven and Charles were actually the same kind of people, both of them were soldiers, with straight temperaments, and they didn't like to worry about trivial things.
But because of this, he also ended up like this, and after a few years of life, Marven recognized a lot, but who has no dignity in his heart, and who likes to talk in a low voice? !
Although the title of Rogge is from the heart, after all, he is a member of a noble family, but for a child, he is somewhat awkward in his heart, and Rogge's words made Marven sigh in his heart.
has a status, the status is still very high, but it is approachable, which can be described as commendable!
At this time, Rogge's status rose sharply in Marven's heart, and Marven smiled happily: "Okay, brother, there will be a useful place in the future, although I said, my brother is... It's just...!"
"What's it?" How could Rogge know that his words made Marven think so much, but for Marven's realization, Rogge likes it very much, and in his eyes, only those who are informal can make friends.
"It's Scott's wild boar, haha~~" Seeing Rogge quip, Marven laughed.
"Okay, brother, stop talking nonsense, get down to business..."Rogge shook his head and smiled, and then asked with a straight face: "Brother, is the person who let it out reliable?!"
"Hehe~~" Speaking of this, Marven raised his eyebrows and promised: "Although my brother can rest assured, he doesn't have the ability to do things at all, how can he do things for Lord Viscount?!"
"The people who were released were all investigated clearly, they were all little ruffians, one had no background, the other had no strength, there were Charles and I in town, if you dare to spoil our business, hum, after so many years of soldiering, you can kill someone!"
"Done!" Rogge was overjoyed when he heard this: "You keep this bag of tea, I'll go on an errand!"
"Okay, brother, go slowly!" Marven got up to see Rogge out.
After going out, looking at the sky, Rogge frowned: "Time is running out, you have to hurry!"
As he spoke, he greeted the guards and walked towards Luo Ji, and when he came to Luo Ji, he saw that except for a few people standing guard and sentry, there was no one in the courtyard, and dozens of families around him were very quiet!
looked up and followed Roque who was standing on the roof of the room in shift, said hello, and walked straight into Ed's room, just after entering, he saw that the room was full of people, and when he saw Rogge come in, he looked at it with a brush.
"How is Offman, have you all arrived?" Rogge saw Offman at the head of the line and quickly asked.
"The shopkeeper is all here!" Offman said and looked left and right, and smiled fiercely, the face that was already fierce was like a rakshasa at this time, and he smiled and said: "All the people who can be found have been found, and they are all nested in the house!"
"How many?!" Rogge nodded and continued.
"There's... Yesβ" Offman's eyes widened and he was about to snap his fingers.
"There are more than 1,200 people!" a rugged man with an unfamiliar face on the side, seeing Offman like this, hurriedly said respectfully to Rogge.
"I.... So many people!" Hearing the number of people, Rogge was taken aback, who was the person in front of him Rogge didn't bother to ask, he just looked at Offman with a stunned face, and hated in his heart!
There is nothing else to do with Offman in the past two days, it is to recruit people!
The medicine stall that was just set in the morning has not yet opened, and now Luo Ji can only have breakfast stalls, fur stalls and shops left in addition to basic employment.
You don't need to find so many people to recruit people, you don't have a brain! Rogge is like a river and a sea rushing at this time, wanting to cry without tears, Luo Ji is not finalized yet, so many people come purely to find trouble!
Under the expression of Offman's face that he saw that I was good at doing things, Rogge wiped tears in his heart, and finally knew the truth of the matter, and in line with the idea of helping the poor, he asked Offman to go to the slave market to collect some people as workers, and if it didn't work, let them sell it early.
But Offman's voice spread among the poor, and the matter of Luo Ji was known to everyone in Dale County during this period of time, with the name of Lord Viscount, adding Luo Ji's slogan, we are the team of the poor, and Luo Ji's reputation for treating the poor well.
The scene of recruiting people was simply crazy, it happened that Rogge was in the Viscount's Mansion, and Offman couldn't find anyone, so he simply made his own decisions and stopped everyone!
This is just a poor man who came in the morning, no wonder when looking for Offman at noon, he searched for a long time, it turned out that this goods were recruiting people in the slave market, and Rogge was in a hurry, and when he learned that his earthwork could be sold for money, Offman only smirked and didn't have time to say!
At this time, Rogge deeply felt that the scene of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's uprising was really a thousand responses, if this TM himself engaged in a revolution, then he wouldn't lift Dale County!
But I'm not engaged in a revolution, and I don't want to engage in a revolution, I just stabilized and have enough to eat, and helping the viscount is also for my own better development in the future, what I care about most is not the money, it's magic, it's technology!
For these, Rogge needs money, and Luo Ji also needs to expand, but everyone knows that if a new enterprise expands without restraint, it will only accumulate more problems, and eventually lead to bankruptcy and destruction!
Rogge looked at Offman angrily, gritted his teeth and said: "Say, say, tell me, counting the people who buy breakfast, how many people are there in Luo Ji now!"
"There's... Hmm..."In the eyes of everyone, Rogge is a manifestation of inner excitement, and Offman has a proud and capable expression, turning his head to look at the strong man who helped him out of the siege just now, and saw the strong man secretly stretching out five fingers, Offman was overjoyed when he saw it: "Five... More than 5,000 people!"
"Poof~~" Rogge almost didn't spurt out a mouthful of old blood, pig, what a pig teammate, but the matter of collecting slaves was still ordered by himself, and there was suffering in his heart, Buck, Buck, grandma didn't expect that because of you, I planted such a big pit!
Thinking of this, Rogge covered his little heart, looked at everyone's expectant expressions, thought for a moment, Rogge's eyes twisted, his heart was horizontal, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I didn't want to find many people, but since I came, I have to listen to Luo Ji!"
"Yes!" said everyone in unison.
"Okay!" At this point, Rogge didn't hesitate, settled down, squinted his eyes and said coldly: "Twelve teams, the captain you choose by yourself, if something happens at night, I will be merciless!"
"Don't worry!" "Yes!" "Listen to your lordship!"...
"If you do it, then you can do it!" Rogge lined up the crowd to the table and opened a drawn map: "This is what I drew in my spare time, since there are new arrivals, then again, although there are more than 90,000 people in Dale County, the size of the town is just like what I painted, the poor are gathered, the rich are scattered, and the streets are on the road..."
After some explanation, Rogge looked at everyone, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Can you do it?"
"Look at what you said...", the strong man at first patted his chest and said, "Which of us has not been bullied by those guys?! With you taking the lead, if any of us are disobedient, I Wood will not be the first to spare him!"
"Yes, I, Aman, can't spare him!"
"Me too!"
Hearing this, Rogge's eyes lit up, and he looked at the man in front of him, with a circled beard, a high nose bridge, a pair of bull's eyes under the thick eyebrows, a pair of bull's eyes blazing, an unusually strong physique, taller than Offman, a wide palm covered with calluses, and a large axe at his waist.
It turned out to be a lumberjack in the slums, Rogge guessed Wood's identity, not only can he speak, but he also knows when to speak, and the most important thing is that this man is real and literate!
"I remember?!" Thinking of this, Rogge became cautious: "The logging business in the slums is not bad, why did you come to our Luo Ji?!"
These poor people are mixed, Offman still has a vision, he can pick out and do things tonight, there are no two brushes, except for a few hundred hunters Rogge can still be trusted, as for the others, you have to weigh it carefully, Rogge doesn't want to make a mess at a critical moment.
"What's so good.." Seeing Rogge ask, Wood scratched his head and giggled as he told what had happened.
Wood used to work in the lumberyard, and the family was the only one, with great strength, a practical person, relying on the temperament of not being afraid of heaven and earth, not only did he pull up a group of buddies in the lumberyard, but even the factory owner in charge did not dare to offend, and he could get by.
I don't know that a few days ago, Rogge led people to crack down, and served the factory owner and several other people in charge, those villains in the slums did not hate, and the same was true for Wood, usually those people did not deduct their wages, and they brought their own men, nothing more than to help those people.
But by himself, after all, he couldn't fight those stewards who had the support of the rich behind him, and that day in front of the city gate, I saw Rogge standing with his eyebrows on his lips, referring to thousands of people, and surrounded by wind and snow, and the small figure was deeply fished in the bottom of his heart, and that night, in the woods, it was Wood's murder!
There was no manager in the lumberyard, and I wanted to pick it up, but I always thought of Luo Ji in my head, and there was always Rog's figure standing in the wind and snow, and yesterday Offman shouted in the slave market, and somehow it reached Wood's ears, so how could he still sit still, and without saying a word, he ran over with a group of people.
"Hehe, I Wood thinks I can do great things with you!" Wood finally patted his head and smirked.
"Then you don't need to say!" Hearing this, Offman immediately raised his head and said angrily, "I'll tell you..."
Wood's expression when he spoke, Rogge kept looking at it, knowing that this upright man was telling the truth, nodded, and interrupted Offman: "Okay, it's not too early, don't talk about those useless things!"
"Wood!" Rogge said and looked at Wood, "Take your people, pick a hundred people for me, follow Offman!"
"Yes!" Wood said in surprise as he didn't know that he was being reused.
"Offman!" arranged everything, and Rogge continued to ask, "How's Casona going?!"
"Don't worry!"
"Okay!" Hearing Offman's words, Rogge smiled coldly: "Go, someone will inform you when you go back..."
After everyone left, Rogge let out a sigh: "The show is about to start!"
