As a lord, I was forced to farm

Chapter 696 Summer Vacation

Jiang Ran was a very contradictory person, who liked luxury but hated waste. After learning of Li Fusheng's good intentions, she naturally would not refuse his face and gladly accepted these one hundred attendants.

"Now Lian Xiang lives in the mansion in Mingxiao City. The county lady has no personal attendant to take care of her. It would be better to at least choose a man and a woman to wait by her side." Li Fusheng said.

After Li Fusheng finished speaking, the attendants couldn't help but feel a little nervous. They were afraid that among the more than one hundred people, there was no one who didn't want to be with the county lady.

Jiang Ran swept his eyes over the hundred people, seeing through them as if he were looking through fire. The servants who lowered their heads only felt a weight on their shoulders, and the subtle atmosphere made their breathing slowly become heavy, as if they were naked and nothing could be hidden.

Soul-stealing is used in situations like this. Jiang Ran needs to ensure that the people around her have a clean background.

It can be seen that Li Fusheng put a lot of thought into this. The attendants he selected not only had clean and decent faces, but there were also no spies among them.

"You two come up." After a moment, Jiang Ran pointed at a girl who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old standing in the front and a little boy who was about six or seven years old in the middle and back.

"What is your name."

The two people who were called were like being hit by a huge pie in the sky, their heads were dazed, but fortunately they were smart enough. The girl was wearing a green dress and had beautiful eyebrows. She immediately knelt down and replied, "My lord, my name is Chun Ya."

The movements were quick and decisive, without any unnecessary nonsense. Jiang Ran nodded, quite satisfied.

The boy was a little younger and seemed to have never thought about the possibility of being selected. After all, because of his age, he was arranged to stand at the back.

The boy pushed forward with a flushed face, and knelt on the ground to salute, "Your Excellency, Ah Sheng's name is Ah Sheng."

Jiang Ran lowered her eyes slightly and looked at him, and asked, "Are you independent?"

Ah Sheng nodded his head rapidly, "Ah Sheng has learned to eat and wash his own clothes a long time ago, and he can also do housework. I learn things very quickly, and I will learn how to serve the county lady."

"Can either of you read?"

Chun Ya said, "I can recognize some basic characters, but I can't write them."

Ah Sheng's face turned red with shame, and he lowered his head in frustration, "I only recognize my name, 'Su Ling', and the numbers from one to ten..."

"You should be able to go to public school for free at your age, why don't you go?"

Ah Sheng was a little panicked, thinking that he would definitely not be selected, and whispered, "If I go to public school, I won't be able to make money, and I will starve."

Jiang Ran frowned. It was the responsibility of her as the lord and even the officials below to let such a young child go hungry and have to work hard to find a worker to make a living.

"How many such widows and orphans are there in Suling County?" Jiang Ran tilted her head and asked Li Fusheng.

Li Fusheng noticed that Jiang Ran was a little worried, and said with his head down, "Lord Wu Yun mentioned to me that there are about 2,000 widows and orphans who have no income and no family to take care of them. Most of them are from Xinheng and are left over from the war. The Ministry of Households has set up a relief home to help these people, but sometimes we are unable to do everything we can to achieve perfection... Some babies who are still in their cradles have been adopted, and those who are not adopted have been hired to take care of them. Children who can run and walk will be assigned to do some work, and will be given food and compensation every day. Ah Sheng is well-behaved and has regular features, so I picked him out." Li Fusheng believed that they in Suling had done well enough in this regard, and most territories would not care about these "burdens" who were unable to work.

"It seems that Wu Yun has done a lot of practical things." Jiang Ran once criticized Wu Yun for being too conventional. Conventional is not a bad word, but in the actively developed Suling area, this head of the Ministry of Revenue wants to stay longer, so being conventional is not enough.

Jiang Ran said to Ah Sheng, "If you want to stay with me, it is necessary to know how to read. The Jiang Mansion has a teacher who specializes in disciplining servants. In addition to teaching etiquette, he will also teach you how to read. Do you have the confidence to learn it well?"

Ah Sheng nodded quickly, "Yes!!"

The main reason why Jiang Ran chose these two people was that they had talent for cultivation, and their talent was not bad. If measured by aptitude crystal, they should be green level. If they worked harder, it would not be a problem for them to cultivate to the Xuan Bone Realm in the future.

So Chun Ya and A Sheng followed Jiang Ran, and according to their qualifications and spiritual power attributes, she gave them each a cultivation method suitable for them.

After meeting Jiang Ran, the attendants left one by one. Li Fusheng reminded Chun Ya and A Sheng, "By following the county lady, you have changed your fate. The county lady doesn't like noise and interruptions, so it's best for you to be silent. Although the lady has a tolerant and gentle temperament and won't argue with you unless it's a matter of principle, you need to be more observant and don't let the lady down... After all, there are many people who want to replace you!"

Li Fusheng's gaze stayed on the young Ah Sheng for a few seconds, and he was obviously worried that he would cause trouble for the county lady.

Li Fusheng's beating made Chun Ya and A Sheng feel a chill in their hearts, and they promised that they would not slack off for a moment.

……

In midsummer, insects are chirping and the weather is hot. The dazzling sunlight shines through the sparse branches and leaves onto young faces.

Located in Nanzhu Village, to the south of the vast salt field, it is on the open-air training ground of Suhong College.

There are many facilities here, such as the spirit gathering array that speeds up the absorption of spiritual power, the gravity array for strengthening the body, sandbags and wooden stakes for training boxing strength, archery targets, and a martial arts arena, etc.

The library, study room and exercise ground are the three favorite places for students of Suhong.

Today is a holiday, but in Suhong College, students do not have a holiday, but they do not have to attend classes, and students who have something to do at home can go back. However, Suhong students know that the world of monks is full of crises and opportunities, and if they want to go far, they must practice diligently.

The training ground was noisy and the various facilities were crowded with people. On the arena, there were also students with high morale fighting each other and having a great time.

The facilities in the exercise ground are limited, and there are too many people and too little space. So while waiting in line, students sit anywhere and chat.

"Summer break is coming soon. I heard that Hu Lian and his team went to the Mercenary Union to take on the mission of hunting monsters. Should we go to the Mercenary Union to take a look?"

Suhong College does not have a winter vacation, but there is a field vacation during the busy spring period in May and June. During August, the weather is hot, which is the busy period for the college to recruit new students, so students will be given a summer vacation of about one month.

However, the instructor suggested that the students form teams to go hunting at the borders of mountains such as Haoxing Mountain and Mingyun Mountain during the summer vacation to find some ferocious beasts and low-level monsters to practice with.

The magic cores, fur and even flesh of Warcraft are important materials for refining pills or weapons, especially the magic cores. The official weapon refining shop that Bai Lifei is in charge of - Xuanyang Weapon Refining Shop needs to consume a lot of magic cores or spirit stones every day, so he has published many posts seeking to buy magic cores in the Mercenary Guild.
