Chapter Seventy-Three, Wealth Touches People's Hearts
Just the first one caused an uproar in the crowd, pension, Kanna led the war every year, and conscripted the militia again and again, which family has not been white?
But the word pension is really the first time I have heard it, not to mention that so many people have died this time, several times more than before.
"Really, there will be a pension?"
"It must be true, you didn't see that this was posted."
"What do you know, it's not normal for those noble lords to say hexagrams?"
"Pity my brother, if this is true, my brother and sister's family can live better."
"But the Baron's words count."
……
From the reaction of the people, you can see the image of the aristocracy in the hearts of the masses, which is simply scolding. But it's not entirely one-sided, and there are still people who remember Lord Lane's credibility.
"Ahem, quiet, quiet.
There is another one here, after I finish reading it, you can verify it for yourself, and now give me peace! Sivis had a straight face, a little unhappy in his heart.
"I really don't understand, why does the Baron give these mud legs a pension, there is so much money that there is no place to use it?" He muttered to himself in his heart.
Seeing that the crowd gradually quieted down, he said: "This is a recruitment notice issued by Lord Delai of the Government Affairs Department, which roughly means that as long as you have a skill, you can try it, and as long as you are selected, you can find a job in the Government Affairs Department."
Even if it's farming, as long as you have a way to grow better than others, you can also try it! There is no time limit, you can go at any time. ”
This one is also a bombshell, in their opinion, this is the lord recruiting officials, as long as it succeeds, then it will not directly become a human being, become a noble lord?
In their barren cognition, even an official the size of a sesame seed in the government affairs hall is a noble lord, and he is different from them.
"It's okay to farm, I'm having a bumper harvest this year, I must try it." A simple man touched his head and said happily.
"You? You also want to be an official, so dream of it. ”
"I've hunted leopards, and I'm going to try them too."
Listening to the heated discussion around her, Xi Yue. Chasing Feng raised her eyebrows, she couldn't quite understand why these people were so happy, whether it was a pension or a so-called official, she was not interested at all.
It's just that this lord doesn't seem to be the same, and she has heard a lot of discussions about him in the city these days, and the reputation is rare and a little good.
The Mentor told her that the human lords were greedy, stingy, hypocritical, brutal, and dangerous, and that they must stay away when they encounter them.
She had traveled to several territories, and even to a viscounty, where the people were full of complaints about the lord, but there were still some people like Ryan who had never seen it.
"It seems that he is a good person, and what the mentor said is not entirely right, so I still have to go out and have a look by myself."
Xiyue shuttled briskly through the crowd, humming an unknown song in her mouth, and finally gradually disappeared into the street......
The whole of Dorman City was talking about the edict issued by Ryan, and because of the basic prestige that had been established before, not many people felt that it was a big pie.
And soon someone put it into practice, and the mother of a fallen militiaman not only claimed the ashes from the government department, but also received five kindlers!
The whole city was boiling in an instant, and many families of the fallen militia or the wounded gathered in front of the government hall and began to receive bereavement benefits and compensation under the maintenance of officials.
Money can't bring the dead back to life, but it can make the living better.
For a while, Lane's name was once again praised by the people of the city, and in the short history of the Kanna Territory, there have been several lords, but Lane's credibility and prestige are the first among these people!
It's just that, under the temptation of money, there will always be people who can't hold back their dirty hands.
Several ruffians waited on the outskirts of the crowd, their arms crossed, their eyes wandering over the people who came out of the government hall, and in their eyes, these were golden Dele.
Soon, they had chosen their target, an old woman named Mary, in her fifties, whose youngest son had been killed in battle the other day, and the only thing left in the house was the lame eldest and her young grandson.
There is no better target than this, and after a few whistles flirtatiously, they followed unabashedly, as long as they left the government affairs hall, they were afraid that there would be no way to make this old woman spit out the money?
Mary held the urn in both hands and staggered down the slightly muddy streets, a little distracted. The four great sorrows of life, the loss of a mother at an early age, the loss of a father at a young age, the widowhood in middle age, and the loss of a child in old age!
Her parents died under the iron hooves of the orcs when she was young, her husband died in middle age, her eldest son broke a leg just after they got married, and her daughter-in-law also died in childbirth when she was in her second child a few years ago, and both mother and child died.
There is only one second son left, who has the strength of a hand, and is also smart and assertive. He was going to fight the orcs, and she agreed, but this time, the white-haired man sent the black-haired man, and he didn't even stay......
As she walked, Mary could no longer control the tears in her eyes, and the cloudy teardrops dripped on the wooden urn and fell into tears.
"Hey, old woman, what about the mourning? What about the money, hurry up and give the money to the master, otherwise you old arms and legs can't stand a few punches from the master. ”
As she walked, Mary felt a strong push on her shoulder, and she stumbled and fell into the muddy ground, and the urn in her hand also fell to the ground, scattering the gray ashes on the ground.
Mary stared at the ashes contaminated by the mud, forgetting the pain on her body, and she didn't even hear what the thugs said.
Seeing that she ignored herself, the leading thug suddenly felt faceless, and immediately stepped forward and kicked Mary on the shoulder, and her thin and shriveled body suddenly fell into the mud puddle on the side, cold and piercing.
She struggled to get up, but just as she was about to succeed, the thug came up with a sly smile and slapped her in the face, and fell into the mud puddle again, the blood spilling from the corner of his mouth staining the muddy mud with a wisp of scarlet.
Such a big movement, someone around has long noticed it, but when they saw that it was a few fierce and vicious gangsters, they all avoided it as if they hadn't seen it.
For a while, more than a dozen people came and went, and no one dared to come forward.
One of Mary's neighbors happened to see this scene, and he felt that he couldn't beat them, so he quickly ran to find the patrol......
Dressed in rudimentary leather armor and patrolling aimlessly with a small squad of militiamen, Colin was promoted to squad leader for his outstanding performance in the war, tasked with patrolling the west of the city.
Since the refugees were taken in, there have been frequent fights and thefts, and they patrol around to serve as a warning.
As he walked, Colin suddenly heard a loud voice shouting: "Hit someone, help......"
Colin frowned, and hurriedly led someone to find him......
