But I heard from the soldiers at Mermaid Bay that the father and son seemed to have had a fight, but in the end, they reconciled with the mediation of Rudy's mother, and the relationship between the father and son seemed to have improved a lot.
Is this some strange family tradition? Green was puzzled.
The first thing he thought of was Arthas. He took out his filial sword and beheaded his father. Could it be that this family also had this gene? That would be too terrifying.
I heard that Paul even shed tears, saying that as a father he could not provide conditions for his daughter and had to let such a young child go to another place. To be honest, Green was speechless. You have never seen fifth and sixth graders in modern primary schools studying across provinces.
If we change the concept and put it in a modern way:
The twelve-year-old prodigy Rudy was admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University on an exceptional basis and became a rising star of tomorrow. Her younger sister was also favored by the big guys and invested in in advance. She was sent to the gifted class since elementary school. In her previous life, her parents would have been so happy that their faces would be broken with laughter.
However, Green does not hate the couple. Paul may be a scumbag, but he is indeed trying his best to be a good father. Green will not have much resentment towards such a person.
So he didn't make things difficult for them. He would just wait until his daughter grew up and deal with this kind of thing.
In other words, people in the Middle Ages died at will, and he didn't mind letting Rudius take care of the sad widow and grieving mother.
Then it was settled that Rudy's sister would stay and receive a good education, and as her brother he would always look after her, ensuring her safety and preventing her from being bullied.
Of course, no one would bully her. Sebastian seemed to be interested in training Aisha as a future housekeeper. Green agreed because of Aisha's mother's excellent heavy genes. This was reasonable.
There's nothing he can do about it, he just likes heavy things, preferably big and soft.
As an evil feudal lord, he doesn't mind letting his subordinates take the promotion platform and take the shortcut in life occasionally.
Everyone is different. Some people can be valued by their leaders with their excellent abilities, but some people can be praised by their leaders for their excellent abilities just because they are valued enough.
The destinies of different people are so different!
In his previous life, Green hated those people who were born with shortcuts in life and could enjoy the benefits that came with them, because he didn't have them.
Now he is really happy. According to the original words of Lüshi Chunqiu, every girl has potential, and it is not wrong for him to cultivate her since childhood!
perfect!
Rudeus' mother planned to stay for the New Year, but his father Paul had to return to the territory because he heard that there were many cases of monsters privateering in the west of the kingdom, and he had to go back to protect the people.
Talking about other people, this family's affairs are almost coming to an end.
The Goblin Slayer faithfully carried out the task of maintaining law and order and strangling monsters, mainly goblins. Kaiar has already made preliminary goblin-flavored food. During this period, he also consulted Rudeus about related technologies and began further research. He was determined to promote the goblin diet. Moreover, this group of goblins seemed to be endless and would refresh from time to time, which made people feel very strange.
But that's a good thing.
During this period, the fur color of the Demi-human slaves in the territory has improved a lot, and sometimes even looks shiny. This saves food from being fed to the Demi-humans, and the lord is very happy.
Demographics:
The first batch of immigrants finally arrived and were successfully taken to Gushan County. The originally expected number of people was reduced to about 5,400 to 5,600, with some dying during transportation. A total of 500 to 600 people died.
This is because payment is made upon arrival of the goods and the number of people who make them pay. Otherwise, more people would die. These merchants even hired some pharmacists who were rejected by the church, just to prevent too many slaves from being killed.
If the situation were really based on the level of the Middle Ages on Earth, thousands of people would have died, and most of them would have died according to Boss Cao's way of playing.
Green discussed with the higher-ups in the territory and combined the suggestions of the SAO players who had been extremely busy exploring the terrain and geographical environment with the officers recently. He divided the people in the territory into dozens of small villages and settled them in different locations in Gushan County.
He also based the baojia system, which he had been thinking about for a long time, on the household-by-household basis. Ten households formed a baojia, with one baojia head managing about a hundred people. This way he could try to screen out available people.
The higher-ranking Greens didn't dare mess around, so they replaced them with their loyal officers.
economic aspect:
The food has been purchased and can feed the territory for one or two years. He basically purchased this batch of food at a price slightly lower than the cost. The money he won in the Royal Capital Casino last year was not cashed in on time. In the end, he only received less than 20,000 gold coins in total, and there were more than 20,000 left.
The person in charge of the casino was a viscount who had good relations with several noble families. Green could not push him too far and asked him to pay off his debts with grain. In the end, this guy vomited out all the luxury goods he had bought with the money he had earned over the years, plus a lot of grain.
As for whether their people would suffer from famine because of this, this was not within his consideration. Green only considered his own people.
Next comes the weapons.
The weapons production line after Rudius's reform continues to operate, and the second batch of weapons has been produced. However, it is currently difficult to open up the sales market, and only sporadic sales of low-quality weapons are being made.
The market share of their Medici family's weapons is still very low.
The framework for the caravan has been purchased, and he has also requisitioned two people from SAO to serve as computers for the caravan. The whereabouts of the caravan leader are still unknown, so he plans to go to the royal capital to see if he can find any loopholes through the system.
In addition, the park's effects have begun to show, and the speed of construction projects in various places has greatly increased. Castles have been built in many counties that were originally empty, and land reclamation has also greatly increased, waiting for more serfs to arrive and take over.
At the border:
Everything is fine. The attack by subhumans before the New Year was the last one this year.
The Earl sent Lilith and several demihumans to inquire about the news. It was said that the Tigerman Royal Court had lost the war, and its strength had been drastically reduced, resulting in the royal family being unable to suppress those formerly superior races, and almost all of them were in a state of obeying orders but not orders.
Even some of the slightly stronger subhuman races have become disloyal and are finding all sorts of excuses to shirk their taxes. Green laughed when he heard this. This is definitely a good thing. Unless someone like Hellscream, Gul'dan, or Thrall appears to truly unite the subhuman tribes, these guys will not pose a threat for the time being.
All that’s left is the Chinese New Year. Even in another world, there are similar festivals. At the beginning of each year in the cold winter, people can finally put down their hoes and return home to their wives and children.
In order to improve the happiness index of the territory and to maintain good relations with his subordinates, the Earl naturally had to hold a grand banquet.
A party must be held!
Finally, as the day approached, around the beginning of February, Green held a meeting in the hall of the lord's mansion. According to the earl: This makes me feel like I am rubbing the Tiger King's Court under my feet. What a bullshit royal court, it's just my buddy's canteen.
February 2st. Lord's Mansion
The author has something to say: Still typing, don't worry hahahaha
Chapter 80 Annual Meeting Three Small Groups 2700
February 2st. Lord's Mansion
In this magnificent aristocratic banquet hall, dazzling high-end imitation chandeliers cast a dreamy light, bright candlelight illuminates the hall, and the air is filled with the scent of spices.
The rude military nobles, dressed in gorgeous formal attire, roared with laughter like thunder, echoing throughout the conference hall. They held their wine glasses aloft with their sturdy arms, told vulgar and obscene jokes to their colleagues, and glared lustfully at the busty maids passing by.
If I had to live a life like this, being a maid when there's work to do and being a maid when there's nothing to do, it would be worth dying for!
The maids were dressed in the same uniform, carrying trays filled with delicious food and fine wine as they moved lightly among the crowd. Even the female demi-humans who had been in grief for years had sweet smiles on their faces. After today, the count would give them some freedom.
They were allowed to go out under supervision, visit their relatives and friends who were still struggling in the park, and deliver the food they had prepared. The human cadres in the park would also take care of those damn demihumans for the sake of the maids.
If they perform well, these demihumans may be promoted to team leaders and become superior slaves to manage other demihumans.
The music in the banquet hall was quite melodious. There were actually two women among the SAO players who could play musical instruments. They worked with several musicians in the territory to organize some small performances.
Originally, they seemed to be planning to organize some activities related to Japanese culture, but Green directly rejected it. They replaced it with more localized music and told stories of ancient bards. Then, as time went on, the performance turned into various modified versions of the imperial book stories.
The culture from another world doesn't work here unless you do pole dancing or striptease. Otherwise, Green will reject it. He doesn't need something high-end, just something that can make everyone happy.
The territorial officials in the hall were divided into several small circles to interact with each other. One group was border guards, and the other was the park. With different thoughts in mind, everyone forgot their worries at the same time.
The Shield Hero is welcomed by the officers because of his active participation in the extermination of monsters in the territory and his straightforward character.
A burly man held a wine glass in one hand and grabbed Iwamine Naofumi's shoulder with the other, with a grim smile on his face.
"Dun, you got us all drunk last time. I don't believe I can't drink more than you this time!"
"Hehe, I won't give up easily!"
"Drink! Drink!"
Ah this.
Iwamine Naofumi chuckled twice. He was also surprised that he could drink a lot, and he was the type who could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. Ever since the news of him getting a group of people drunk last time spread, the officers who refused to admit defeat wanted to join him in a drinking contest, but naturally they lost in the end.
This has led to more people coming to challenge, and they have been defeated over and over again, but they keep trying.
"Okay, okay, I'll drink it." The Shield Hero sighed, picked up a glass of wine and started drinking it, winning the admiration of the people around him and making the atmosphere even more lively.
They chatted while drinking.
"Speaking of which, you, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, actually found a demihuman maid. Shang Wen is also a bear man. Your hobby is quite unusual, isn't it?"
"Shut up! You bastard, why do you care what kind of maid Shang Wen looks for? Isn't this better than you doing it every day?"
"Fuck, it's none of your business! Come and fight if you dare!"
“Hahaha, drink, drink!!!”
not far away.
"Hmph, a bunch of drunkards." Kaiar snorted arrogantly, but raised his index finger unconsciously, his eyes wandering.
Due to some minor changes in his actions, he seemed to have become colder and more difficult to quit. Even some officers who had originally had a good relationship with him stopped interacting with Kaiyal frequently.
"They are just very enthusiastic, but I am not used to it." The Goblin Slayer sitting next to him did not take off his mask even when drinking.
Those who don’t know him would think he is a bull warrior.
Because of their personalities, the two of them don't have many acquaintances in the territory.
Rudeus was also caught up in a similar matter with the Shield Hero. To be honest, he got into trouble some time ago, but it didn't seem like a big deal in the eyes of other officers, because when Kaiar was in charge before, there were frequent riots by subhumans, and they had long been desensitized.
On the contrary, the officers were very happy because of Rudeus's new assembly line factory. The originally worn-out weapons could finally be updated!
"Thank you, Rudius, for the weapons you made! Thanks to your help, even our Third Line Militia Regiment has decent weapons! We only had dung forks before, so I won't say much. Thank you!" The speaker was an officer of the militia regiment. He was really miserable. His soldiers each had a wooden shield and could not even carry a dagger.
It is true that the new weapons assembly line factories produce low-quality weapons, but as long as the weapons can kill people, they don’t mind.
Better than a dung fork, right? Better than a bamboo spear, right?
The militia's combat effectiveness has been improved.
As for the first and second-line corps, they have also been affected to a certain extent. The assembly line weapons production occasionally produces qualified weapons. I believe that the weapon level of the territory can be slowly updated in the future.
"Hahaha, you're welcome. This is what I should do." The young man humbly accepted the compliment and secretly smacked his lips while holding a glass of beer.
This body of mine is only in my teens!
"Hmph! I'm not saying anything bad about you, Rudeus. Although you're a genius I admire, you're still a man! A man should be rough and bold! Drink and eat meat with big mouthfuls! Don't always imitate those pretentious aristocrats, except for the boss."
"Yes, yes. Thanks to Rudeus, we now have an abundance of weapons. Our second-line troops have even received a new batch of weapons and equipment. To be honest, before this, many of our brothers' weapons were barely usable."
They all seem to be very grateful to me. Did I do well enough?
Rudius was confused. He had been having a hard time recently. Because of his stupidity, his sister had to come to the remote Medici County. He also had a fight with his father, although they reconciled later.
But looking at the sincere congratulatory voices around him, he believed that these people would not betray their colleagues, would not enjoy the benefits he brought them, and then find a way to kill him tomorrow.
Suddenly, the boy felt a little sore in the corners of his eyes. He had been under a lot of pressure during this period, and now it seemed that it had finally paid off.
What can be said?
So he looked at the fist-thick cup with some difficulty and made a decision, imitating the others and drinking it in one gulp.
"Gurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr."
"Good!!! Like a man!! Great job Greyrat!"
“Drink! Drink! Drink!!!”
"I'm taking you out to be a man tonight!!!"
"Hey, hey, hey, stop messing around. Rudeus is only twelve years old now. I remember that in some faiths, twelve years old is not allowed, right? He should be at least fourteen!"
"Bullshit! I was only twelve years old..."
There was a great uproar.
In addition to following their leaders to drink and chat, SAO players also spontaneously gathered together to talk about the recent changes. To be honest, the environment is no longer comparable to the modern one, which is undeniable. In addition, some people are still thinking about their modern families, and their hearts are filled with mixed feelings for a while.
But this does not mean that they have no good feelings towards the Medici leader.
They came out of the virtual life of SAO, escaped from the dangerous environment, and lived a life of food and clothing. To be honest, the pressure was even less than in modern times, because they were valued by the lords and mostly engaged in non-physical labor, and were relatively respected.
The most important thing is that compared to the oppressive and suffocating feeling in modern Japanese society, the environment here makes people breathe a sigh of relief. After thinking about it for a month or so, most of them came up with similar ideas: since they can't go back, why not just stay here honestly?
But they were surprised to find that the pressure here was surprisingly small. They did not have to be criticized by their superiors in a sarcastic manner every day. At most, they would occasionally be scolded by officers, but it was acceptable. It was much better than workplace bullying.
In the crowd, Kirito, who had just received two months' salary and bought new warm coats for himself and his girlfriend, looked at Asuna in the crowd from afar. To be more precise, one of the two women who were supported by the Count was Asuna.
At this moment, she looks very wealthy.
The girl's top is a slim fit, highlighting her graceful figure. The sleeves are fluffy puff sleeves, and the edges are also decorated with lace, adding a touch of playfulness and agility.
The color of the long dress is deep and charming violet, and the neckline is made of exquisite lace, which is delicate and complex, like a cluster of blooming flowers surrounding her white neck.
The girl was leaning in the Earl's arms with a somewhat cold expression on her face, and Green didn't seem angry. Instead, he kept touching her, kissing and biting her from time to time, like a gangster.
This made Kirito feel mixed emotions. How could things turn out like this?
"Asuna"
