The existence of pirates is not a secret, and there are many families in the kingdom of Lorfen who are engaged in piracy-related work.

From the slave trade to the maintenance of ships in ports, from the merchant trade to mercenary wars, every decade or even a few decades, a fight is fought towards the wealthy regions of the South.

The trade routes to the south were occupied by the barbarians of the plains of the kingdom of Loven, and the pirates routed along the ice sea to the east or west, raiding caravans at sea or coastal areas.

These hordes of pirates were not a small number, and at times they organized thousands of sailing ships and fleets of tens of thousands of people to go out to rob.

There are three types of pirates within themselves, nobles, freemen, and slaves.

Lawrence now belonged to the slave class because he had no land and no house.

There were no members of the land, houses, or families, and they belonged to the slave class in the kingdom of Rofen and even in the rest of the kingdoms.

Fortunately, Lawrence bought a slave, and according to the simple rules of this wild area full of loopholes, he was no longer a slave.

In both the East and the West, those who did not have land and houses were tenant farmers or serfs.

Having a house and land in the city is just a basic condition for ordinary people and free people.

Lawrence wanted to own his own land and house now, and he could have enclosed his own land in the mountains, but no one here cared about it.

However, after arriving here, Lawrence realized that there were actually people in charge.

Lawrence looked at Andrew, a strong man walking in front of him.

"Andrew, you're actually pretty good, aren't you?" Lawrence looked at Andrew with admiration.

Andrew turned his head, and his old face was full of doubts.

"What are you talking about?"

Lawrence quickly said: "I didn't feel it a few days ago, but today I suddenly found out, Andrew, you are also a big man with a face here, right?" ”

Andrew shook his head, "No, I'm not a nobleman. ”

Lawrence smiled and said, "Even if you are not a nobleman, I think you must know a lot of people here, and you are respected by many people, and you are a warrior, right?" ”

Andrew was so praised by Lawrence that he couldn't help but show a happy and smug look, and his waist was even straighter.

"Yes, that's right!"

Lawrence now determined that as long as there is an area of human activity, there is no borderland, and it has always been the one who has the fist to whom.

Andrew didn't mind Lawrence settling near his home, otherwise it would involve a lot of troublesome problems, some problems that needed to be solved with his fists.

In the midst of compliments and small talk, Lawrence also knew where to go.

This time I went to a town called Bhumesius, which had a bazaar and tavern in addition to a noodle mill, as well as a blacksmith shop.

Farm implements from several nearby settlements are purchased at this blacksmith shop, which also recycles ironware.

The tavern is also a complex building, in addition to drinking and chatting, it also works part-time hotel business, the type is similar to the hotel, and before you go to bed, someone will ask if you need additional services.

It is usually a night book, and it is mainly engaged in married women, and the objects are also businessmen from other places.

The mill was noisy in the middle of the village, and outside the wooden house like a granary, there was a large forest with a lot of dung in it.

It's not that hunger and thirst have reached this point, the main thing is that noodle work is heavy physical labor, and only a very small number of people can grind twenty or thirty pounds of stones, and normal people will have a sore arm in more than ten seconds.

This kind of thing requires help.

Women in this era don't have the face to ask for help, and basically solve problems on their own.

Most of the local women have their own men to help, and the men from other places mainly go to the tavern to drink and brag, and the women will bring their children to fight together.

There was almost no custom industry, and women in poor places did not stay alone for too long, as was the case with women in this era, and it was easy to find a fixed mate.

What you can't find will be eliminated.

Although it is poor here, it is not particularly poor, and the particularly poor generally die and cannot survive the winter.

Lawrence quickly said, "Then I'll go down to the blacksmith and see if he can use silver." ”

The mill was not attractive to Lawrence, but he was a little resistant to it when he knew that he was going to use it as a livestock.

I didn't want to go to the tavern either, and the rest of the bazaar and blacksmith shop were naturally the most important blacksmith shop.

The recycling business of the blacksmith shop is related to how much food and props you can bring back.

Andrew laughed and said, "Okay, let Saliel take you over, I'll go drink first, and I'll help you ask Wenge if he collects money at noon." ”

Doug is the name of the tavernkeeper, a prominent figure in the town and a merchant of medicinal herbs.

The group soon arrived at the small town of Bhumesiu, where the surrounding trees were sparse, and most of the area was bare with no trees or grass in sight.

When you enter a wooden town, you will find that it has become lively.

The imaginary mess and cow and sheep dung no longer exist, and the residents of this place also have their own law enforcement powers, and others dare to pull cattle and sheep to in front of the door, so they will naturally ask for an explanation, so order and rules are formed.

The bazaar is a few meters away from the houses, not far from the living quarters of the townspeople, and the wooden doors and tents of the townspeople can be clearly seen all around.

Most of them are large wooden houses, but there are also a few large two-story wooden houses, which are like classrooms and shops.

There are already many vendors sitting in the market, and there are also vendors who come by one after another to place their dried fish and salt on the edge.

People set up their stalls with baskets one by one, and some put several baskets directly in front of them, with live chickens and sheep inside.

There are also wooden planks placed on chests and stones with smoked meat and stale pork, as well as wild animals such as squirrels, rabbits, snakes, etc.

People sell the wild animals they hunt for money, but it doesn't seem to be doing well.

There were very few people who sold grain, and most of them sold clay pots and pots and woven goods, including baskets and sieves, as well as wooden hoes and barrels and pots.

In front of the stall selling fruit and wild vegetables, Andrew said goodbye to everyone, took the blackberry straw bag from the dom sheep and strode to the tavern.

Sophia took the initiative to lead another domme sheep and asked Saliel, "What are we going to do now?" ”

Sariel looked left and right, and while shopping and looking at the goods sold today, she said, "Let's go to Emma's house to get wheat, and the wheat that Emma gave has no stones in it, so it won't eat your teeth." ”

Lawrence was very aware and said excitedly: "Yes! I hate the kind of thing that eats and eats stones! ”

Most ordinary people in this period have rotten teeth.

It's not easy to eat food that doesn't have to be mixed with sand.

Sometimes it's not intentionally mixed, it's mainly that I don't care about this thing at all when cleaning and processing, and I don't have the idea of quality control at all.

Sophia also has a deep understanding of the fact that she often eats that kind of tooth-knocking food in the slave camp.

Eating bread was a privilege reserved for the aristocracy, and both freemen and slaves had to be careful when eating.

Sariel quickly led the two to the door of a house on the street, a large house five meters long and three meters wide, which looked like a rectangular workshop, with a simple triangular thatched roof and simple mud and wood walls.

"Emma, it's me, Sariel."

As soon as Sariel's voice fell, a woman's voice came to mind behind the wooden door.

"It's Sariel! I've been waiting for you for a long time! ”

Soon a young woman dressed in an apron-like gown opened the door, her young face with freckles and messy red hair that looked like it hadn't been washed in days, and she was looking at Sariel with a delightful expression.

Emma was very young, she looked less than twenty years old, but she was already a mother of three.

Sariel also smiled and said, "This time it's earlier than before, this is Mr. Lawrence, and Lawrence's servant Sophia. ”

Emma also notices Lawrence and Sophia.

"Mr. Lawrence?" Emma looked Lawrence up and down suspiciously, her arms supporting her chest in front of her, and looking at Lawrence like an interrogation, "What will he do?" It doesn't look like much strength. ”

Lawrence is not very tall, in the northern environment, where the average height of 1.75 to 1.8 meters per capita, Lawrence's height of 1.7 meters is a little short.

This is mainly a fusion of Northland pirate genes, and the average height in the plains is less than 1.7 meters.

Sariel glanced at Lawrence and introduced to Emma, "Lawrence is a wise scholar, he can catch squirrels in trees, rabbits in the woods, even if he walks in the mountains for a month, he will not get lost, and he saved my father from the cannibal water and repelled the cannibalism. ”

Emma's face gradually tensed, and soon she put her hands on her abdomen and said anxiously to Lawrence, "Mr. Lawrence! I'm Emma! ”
