Since they met on the stairs that day, Oni seems to have reached some kind of tacit understanding with Li Yu, and has never come to trouble Li Yu again, and even saw it from afar.

Her change of attitude was also seen by the rest of the castle, especially the maids, servants, and guards, most of whom had served the Arias family for a long time.

Although Yin Leia has become the new owner of Green Field, they all know that it is still the old man who is hiding behind the scenes who controls the entire family.

Seeing that she had released her kindness to Li Yu, they naturally became more and more respectful to this strange stranger who came with Yin Leia.

Especially as the events that happened in Rock Snow City gradually spread back to Green Field, all kinds of rumors about Li Yu suddenly increased.

Many people are extremely curious about his magic tricks and the Saturday behind them, but no one wants to know more about it yet.

Li Yu has also been in Lvye for a while, and he has roughly figured out the situation here.

I have to say that the Silver Moon Church is indeed operating very well in this land, and the believers are all over the western realm, from the noble lords to the common people, and they generally believe in the silver moon goddess Pisia.

For the nobles, the Silvermoon Church adopted a strategy of starting from dolls, and would take the initiative to send teachers like Anton to the castles and mansions of the nobles in the West to teach the children of those nobles to read and write, and such professors were usually free of charge, only the lord was responsible for food and lodging, so few nobles would refuse.

In the process of learning the lingua franca, teachers from the church indoctrinate the worship of Pithia in their students, training them to become followers of the goddess of the silver moon.

Once one of them becomes a lord, he will inevitably continue to promote the belief in the goddess of the silver moon in his own territory in the future.

As for those young men who had lost the battle for succession, or who knew early on that they had no hope of competing for the throne, the Silvermoon Church also welcomed them with open doors and allowed them to continue their studies at the temple.

The best of them have the opportunity to become priests and enter the upper echelons of the church, and the status of priests on the continent of Brattis is also very noble, and they are very loved by the common people, and they will also become the link between the Silvermoon Church and the major families, connecting the two sides closely.

On the civilian side, the Silver Moon Church has not been left behind, and will regularly hold various sacrificial activities in various places, organizing villagers and citizens to sacrifice grains, fruits, and livestock to the goddess in exchange for the protection and blessing of the goddess.

In addition, some kind-hearted priests would also provide free medical treatment and delivery to civilians, and when the harvest was bad in disaster years, the church would also distribute food for disaster relief.

Although there have been scandals of priests defiling young girls or teenagers in the name of blessings, there are also merchants who pay to put their chambers of commerce under the name of the Silvermoon Church as a way to avoid high territorial taxes...... But overall, the Silvermoon Church has a good reputation among nobles and commoners.

Moreover, the worship of the goddess Picia has been in the western realm for more than 2,000 years, and on average, two out of every three people are followers of Picia.

Considering the presence of some unbelievers and barbarians, this popularity rate can be said to be very staggering.

The people who inhabit this land have become accustomed to living under the protection of Pithia for generations, and it is difficult for outsiders to break this inertia.

Li Yu tried to perform some magic skills in front of the four children and the little maid some time ago, intentionally or unintentionally, in exchange for an exclamation, but the number of faith displayed on the watch was still zero.

The children were already convinced of Li Yu's prophetic identity, but it was obviously difficult for them to abandon Picia and go to Saturday.

Let's get off the book

Li Yu was also mentally prepared for this, as his opponent was a local religion with a long history, a large organizational system, and allies.

And as an outsider, it is not easy for him to be alone and want to replace him.

Although Li Yu believes that through a long time of getting along and subtle influence, the people around him will eventually become believers on Saturday, but this is too inefficient.

And Li Yu thought about it for a while, and soon understood what the problem was.

Compared to Picia, Saturday was still a little too far ahead of its time, and his initial teachings might have quickly attracted a large number of believers in modern times, and it was not possible to win several office buildings at once.

However, in this medieval-like era, the productivity is terrible, and the ratio of sowing to harvesting is only a pitiful 1:4, that is to say, planting one pound of seeds can only harvest four pounds of grain.

In such a harsh environment, the only wish of most civilians is to be able to fill their stomachs and not starve, so who cares if they have a vacation.

Take the four little ones around Li Yu as an example, the reason why they are willing to be Li Yu's assistants is to come for two meals, as well as the extra joy of one silver coin per month, and the two-day vacation is completely incidental.

Even when they returned home, they would not use those two days to rest, but continued to help their parents with farm work.

As for those nobles, as the dependents, they wish that the lords in the territory could rotate 24 hours a day and grow directly in the farmland, so there is no reason to support the two-day holiday system.

After realizing the problem, Li Yu did not have any idea of giving up on Saturday.

Some things are not engraved in the bones from the beginning, and they need to be exchanged for blood and life in the future, and they are not strong at all.

Because human greed knows no bounds, in that case, it is better to put a shackle made of faith around your neck as early as possible.

Isn't it productivity, the most important thing Li Yu lacks in his hands is the method to improve productivity.

When he gets the land from Yin Leia, he will start to increase the yield of the field, and prove the benefits of faith Saturday to the people around him with practical actions.

He didn't believe that the followers of the Silver Moon Goddess would remain indifferent in the face of real money.

But in order to do this, in addition to land, he needs manpower.

Li Yu also took the time to take a look at Dias's territory these days, Miss Rabbit didn't lie, the land there was very fertile and the environment was good.

Standing on the hillside, you can still see the slender strips of fields that have been cultivated under your feet, one after the other, densely packed, but unfortunately they are all abandoned.

There are only a few families left in the entire territory, and there is not even a single village.

The old housekeeper Fausto had promised to help Li Yu recruit some freedmen to farm, but in the past two years, the western border had been relatively peaceful, there had been no major disasters, and the harvest was good, so not many farmers had left their homes and came out to rent land.

Even if Li Yu is willing to give a very low tax rate, the more the farmers are worried about the pitfalls.

However, on the third day after the installation of the monitoring, Li Yu had not moved any fifty fathoms in his hands, and the column of faith finally changed from zero to one.
