Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 20 The Shocked Pompeian Collar ([-])

Michel looked at the terrified villagers, laughed, and patted the Bass cow's butt. The Bass cow seemed a little dissatisfied, turned its head back, and mooed.

"You have also seen that this is a tool invented by the great Master Luther. It is called a "plough". It can plow the field when it cooperates with an ox. And the benevolent Master Luther distributed five Bath cattle to us, which means What, I believe you also know."

Michel smiled like a child, full of joy.

The villagers reacted one after another, and their eyes lit up.They gathered around the Bass ox together, and it seemed that it was not a cow, but a golden bull.

A cow that radiates gold.

"I know that our spring plowing this year must be very easy, seeing the Bass cattle plowing the fields easily. The great Master Luther, the great Pompeii family. It is my luck to be able to grow in the territory of the Pompeii family."

Some villagers said enthusiastically.

"Shut up you, you are so stupid. Having this cow saves us energy, we can spare more energy to take care of the fields, and next year we will start cutting down forests and building more farmland. My family can farm. Double, no, double."

Some villagers took a longer view and laughed at the villagers who had spoken before, and spoke in a more fanatical tone.

"That's right. With more fields, more production. Our children will grow stronger, and it's okay to have more. We will become richer and richer. No more children because we have too many children." Too many, when they can’t support them, they have to throw away the weak children.”

Some villagers said with tears in their eyes.

That's right.

This is a very primitive and primitive world. If a family has too many children and cannot eat enough, the parents will cruelly discard the thin children and feed the more robust ones.

The plow invented by Luther is absolutely incomparable in its significance.

"Don't be too happy, Bass cattle are a very precious breed of cattle. They need to eat special rations. If we want them to work hard, we must first learn to take care of them. And we need to cultivate more farmland, just these five cattle There are not enough Bass cattle. After this year’s autumn harvest, we will beg Master Luther to pool our own money to buy more cattle. Be sure to allow us to reclaim twice as much land next year as this year.”

Michel took out the prestige of the village chief, not only suppressing the messy villagers, but also announcing the matter.

After hearing this, the villagers nodded their heads one after another.

If Bass cattle were just a kind of beef cattle, it would be impossible for villagers to chip in to buy cattle.But now that the Bass cattle are the labor force that can plow the fields, it is considered a waste of money and starvation for a year, and they must raise enough money next year to buy five more Bass cattle.

Cultivate more fields, and life will get better and better.

At this time, Michel had a smile on his face again, and said: "Besides, since the great Master Luther can invent such a magical tool, then what he said must be true. And this time I I heard that not only human excrement can be used to fertilize the field, but also some bird droppings and livestock droppings. Now that we have Bass cattle to help you plow the fields, we can organize people to go to the forest to collect dung and fertilize the land. Maybe this year The harvest can increase by [-]%."

The villagers were taken aback for a moment, and then they all let out a strange cry.

"That's right, since the great Master Luther invented this miraculous tool, then what he said must be correct, manure fertilizes the field."

"So bird droppings are okay too?"

"So that's it, let's get started right away."

The villagers planned to leave one after another, to call in helpers to dig out all kinds of excrement.At this time, Michel stopped the villagers and called the villagers to build a house for the Bass cattle to live in.

First settle down the cattle, then we can talk about the future.

Yoyo, our Bass cattle are simply golden bulls.

And this kind of thing happened not only in Tie Ma Tun, but also in the other nine Tuns, even among the serfs.

Luther changed from Master Luther to a great Master Luther.

The prestige of Pompey's family and Luther's personal prestige are all increasing.

If Luther immediately became the lord of the Pompeii family, then in the minds of the people, he might immediately become the most outstanding and greatest Pompeii lord.

Great Luther, Pompey.

…………

Five days later.

Near the castle of Pompeii, the town hall.

Yes, the initial construction of the town hall of the great city of Pompeii has been completed.This is a villa building with double-storey structure.

There are twenty rooms inside, including office rooms, meeting rooms, toilets and so on.

It covers a large area and is majestic.However, due to limited conditions, the current city hall is mainly made of wood, and it has not been painted yet. The appearance is the true color of wood.

There are many rooms in the city hall, but there are two or three staff members.At present, there are only the mayor Lu Luxiu, his four assistants, a few errands, and a team of ten guards.

The internal structure of the city hall is also relatively simple.

In the mayor's office, Luther leaned against the window. Looking out from this window, the scenery he saw was almost the same as that of Pompeii's castle.

Pieces of farmland, and the people working on the farmland.

Bass cattle have captured the hearts of the people, and new farming methods have been spread.Coupled with the manure field, I believe this year's harvest will be good.

Looking forward to the future, Pompeii Ling’s income will double several times next year.

And Luther was even more shameless. What he seemed to see was not pieces of farmland, but houses, even villas.

In a few years, this is sure to be a downtown location.

Pompeii would be a great city, and commerce would flourish.And agriculture will not decline. In this primitive and backward world, agriculture must not be given up.

If there is no food, it will be controlled by others.

Agriculture will not disappear, and it will just as well thrive.Just will be away from the city.A city of Pompeii with a prosperous business and a large population, plus the vast farmland around it.

Pompeii's future.

The future looks bright.

"Little Luther, the people have accepted the new farming method of farming cattle. They also believe in the "fantasy" of manure and fertilizer fields. I believe that next year Pompeii's farmland and tax revenue will increase by two or three times. In the case of increased tax revenue , Pompeii can raise more civilian knights, and the children of the common people are more likely to survive. In less than 20 years, Pompeii's territory will expand several times, and the population will also expand several times. If you are lucky, you can get The population, even increased tenfold. I believe you will own a city. But to own a city, you must have at least the title of baron. Do you have any ideas to persuade, or bribe the House of Nobles, to raise the title of your Pompeii family? ?”

Lu Luxiu, who was sitting on the seat of the mayor in the office, asked seriously.

Not long ago, Lu Luxiu didn't think that Luther could own a city, but now that there is a plow, if manure fertilization is really effective, then Lu Luxiu thinks that it is not impossible for Luther to own a city.

Under such circumstances, Lu Luxiu felt that it was necessary to make some suggestions for Pompeii's family.

Only with the title of baron can one own the fiefdom of a city.

In addition, it is necessary to cultivate more knight families who are loyal to the Pompeii family, similar to the iron horse family.

Lu Luxiu even felt that if he got married in the future and gave birth to a few strong young men, he might be able to seek a knight leader and become a knight vassal under the Pompeii family.

Bonaparte knight collar.

Yo, it's not bad.

Luther came back to his senses, he took his eyes back from the vast farmland, then turned his head to Lelouchu with a smile and said, "20 years? That's too long. I think three to five years at most, I can own a city. So at this time we have to plan carefully, how can I have enough potions and other resources to become a powerful knight during this period of time. By the way, persuade, or Said to bribe the House of Nobles and upgrade our Pompeii family's territory to a baronial family."

Lu Luxiu was dumbfounded.

Is this ambition a little too big?
Take it for granted?
Do you think it is so easy for a hereditary knight family to become a baron family from a tadpole to a frog?Did you run the House of Lords?

But it's exciting to think about it.

If Luther can become a baron in three to five years, does that mean that he will become a hereditary nobleman within ten years?
Yo, I'm a little swayed too.
