Duke of Grief

Chapter 152: Pioneering (Part 2)

Charlie flinched and looked around. There were not a few people like him among the crowd.

Messy hair, dirty clothes, some people are not covered, some people have worn shoes, like Charlie, but he still did not want to throw it away.

They have many similarities, but the most similar one is probably that all their property is just clothing.

Without land, work is hard to find. If they had not seen the misery of slaves, they might have already sold themselves to become slaves of others.

You can only eat black bread and water, and only a ruined house. The farmer’s farmer is a job that everyone wants. How can they get such a person?

Sometimes a month’s income is less than five coppers. In addition to the necessities of life, the lord is also taxed. If the local is under the jurisdiction of a knight, they may be exempted from their taxes, but if they are under the jurisdiction of the nobility, they Still have to hand over that piece of copper.

In winter, we can only store more grass to keep warm. When no one is frozen or starved to death, no one will bother about it. This is the poor class led by the sad wind.

Not only the mournful leader, such a poor class exists in most parts of the world. The number of poor people in the Wind City has gradually decreased due to the developed business and large labor demand, but in other places in the mournful leader, many nobles have The maid’s decrees are in violation of Yang Feng’s and Yin’s, which has led to the relative backwardness of other territories, and the lives of the poor have not been improved.

Charlie is a poor man. He knows that the mourning leader basically recruits soldiers every year, and many people choose to respond to the recruitment in order to eat a meal or defend the mourning leader.

This time it's the same, but it's strange that this time "Knight" only recruited them the poor.

When they set off, they passed the legendary ‘Wind’, which was indeed as beautiful and ‘magic’ as the rumors, and some people gave them shoes for free.

It was a pair of straw sandals, the pair that Charlie was wearing now.

"Knight of the Knights" took them on the spacious gray road, no one stopped them, and even the "Knight of the Knights" prevented them from leaving the road.

In the sorrow winds, trained militia can deal with monsters and ordinary beasts, but these poor people can't do it. At most, they deal with some herbivores like deer.

Because of the long-term inability to fill their stomachs and malnutrition, most of the poor people are relatively thin, and some people are even hungry to the point of being skinny. Pulling up their sleeves can only see atrophic muscles.

Yes, even on a hot summer day, they are still wearing long sleeves, that is tattered, and the clothes that have been patched are their only wealth, except for the house inherited from their parents , They don’t have much.

The "Knight of the Cavaliers" who led the team also smiled when facing these poor people, and occasionally looked at them with some lonely and sad expressions, which also made them more convinced that "Knight of the Lord" compared to those. The nobleman's rumors are much better.

After a few days of trekking, they did not miss any one. Because of the kindness of the'Knight Lord', not only did they not suffer any damage from beasts and monsters, they also did not leave any one behind due to physical or other reasons.

They can get a piece of dark bread every night, and then the "Knight of the Knight" will also take out the dried meat to cook broth for them, even the cold-hearted people can not help but move.

As for the broth, when they swallowed the still rough and bitter black bread, they no longer showed grief or numbness, and they sincerely thanked this'Knight of the Knight'.

The "Knight of the Knights" took several soldiers and escorted them to a small town called "Watch Town". The carriage that followed their team also stopped here.

Even Charlie had heard of the town’s name.

This is a town with a very strong military atmosphere. All the houses are two-story buildings. Most of the people who come and go are adventurers and businessmen. After coming here, the "Knight Lord" who has led them through the wilderness has been relieved. .

"It's finally here!"

Earp showed a light smile and wiped off the sweat on his forehead. He turned back and said to the poor: "We are here, but this is not our destination. We are not the only team of pioneers." , Watch Town is just a transit station and a supply station. Next we will go to the Black Forest...Oh no, it should be "formerly Black Forest", there is no specific name yet, but you can rest assured that we will still Protect you!"

Charlie, who received the guidance, followed a group of people to line up to register in a place. When he learned from the joking registered population that he was the 36th person named'Charlie', he did not feel surprised and made him feel To my surprise, what happened next.

"Mr. Charlie, in order to facilitate registration, statistics, and salutation, you now have the opportunity to choose a surname. Here are-twenty-seven surnames! You can also choose one of these twenty-seven surnames as your Surname, I don’t know which one you want to choose?"

Charlie's first reaction was to shrink his neck and wait until the serious-looking "noble lord" had finished speaking, then he asked with a blank expression, "Why, what?"

The civil servant did not bother to repeat what he had said before, when Charlie accepted the fact in shock.

"I... can I have a surname?" Charlie asked cautiously and excitedly.

"of course!"

Charlie got a positive answer from the civil servant.

He gasped for breath, as if choosing a surname, and received a brand-new set of clothes and shoes, he was taken to a large bath to clean his body.

After washing his body and walking out of the bath, Charlie recovered.

He touched the brand-new linen clothes on his body, his face unbelievable.

He recalled his previous memories and touched the white nameplate on his chest, which read a line of symbols that should be'words'.

‘Charlie Mulov’, this is his new name, and until now he still can’t believe he actually has a surname.

They were gathered together. A group of people lived in a camp outside the town. Soldiers outside the camp warned them not to run out of the camp at night because there were monsters and beasts outside the camp.

Do not defecate anywhere in the camp, if you want to excrete, you need to go to a designated place.

Many people, including Charlie, obeyed these rules, but after all, they came from poor people, and some people did not follow these rules, and then those were punished.

They were punished to personally clean up their excrement and do fifty'push-ups'. After the punishment was over, they were all exhausted.

It was also at this time that Charlie saw the sternness of the soldiers, and even the "Knight of the Knights" who brought them here looked coldly and stood aside.

But what really surprised them was that by the time of dinner, those who were punished also had dinner, and they were the same as they were-meaty broth and bread.

When Charlie looked at the bowl of glazed broth and flakes in front of them, they burst into tears.

No one wants to escape from this camp anymore, maybe they will be subject to a lot of control, but now they have broth to drink, although the amount is not too much...

After a few days, they were taken to a very sultry place, where there were several wooden houses, and when Charlie came there, someone was already reclaiming the wasteland.

Charlie and several poor people from the same team were arranged in a wooden house, and they will be roommates who will eat and live together for a long time in the future.

Their mission was to reclaim the wasteland~www.NovelMTL.com~ When Charlie got the leased farm tool, his tears fell again.

'If they can reclaim a wasteland, the wasteland they reclaimed can be leased to ten years, and after ten years of labor, they can buy the right to use the field at the lowest price', which is the legendary The original words of the maidservant who brought happiness and prosperity to the sad wind collar, because they were afraid that they would not understand, the'Knight Lord' summarized this sentence.

‘If they work hard for ten years here, then they can buy the right to use the field they have cultivated’, that is, they can own their fields in the future.

After hearing this sentence, Charlie knelt down immediately, gently put down the leased farming tools, his hands folded in tears, and wept lowly:

"Thank you maid grow up kindly!"

Devoted... like worshipping a god.
