Release that Witch - Chapter 504
[Chapter 497 A Chaotic Departure]
Neverwinter City, Longsong District Wharf.
Two cement ships were docked on the shore, and the workers were unloading the sacks one by one. The newly appointed officials from the Ministry of Agriculture were counting the quantities. The whole pier was filled with a hot atmosphere, which had not yet dissipated the influence on Xie Yue. It is rare for a fortress with snow on the road.
After inspection and statistics, the seeds in these sacks will be distributed to each farmer by a special person.
“Your Highness, the Golden No. 1 seed can really increase the yield of wheat by more than three times?” Pei Luo still couldn’t believe it, “Doesn’t that mean that the output in the field can fill everyone’s stomach?
” Roland had also heard Barov say that, or in other words, in the eyes of most nobles, it is normal for civilians to be hungry, “It is the most basic responsibility of a lord to feed everyone, and we have only taken the first step.” That’s all. Besides, you don’t need to take it as my kindness, because the hungry people can’t devote themselves to the construction of the city.”
“But… this is undoubtedly a great feat, as far as I know , there is no city in the Kingdom that can do this.”
“The merits are indeed commendable, but I only accounted for a small part, and the most important thing is to rely on the witch – without the transformation of the leaf, the Golden One is impossible to talk about.”
Pei Pei Luo was silent for Xiaohui, “Maybe we were really wrong before.”
“What?”
“In terms of treating witches.” He took a long breath, “Most nobles don’t take seriously the church’s propaganda, but they also hold witches. Disgusted and guarded, cooperating with the church to kill is just following the trend, even if you use it, you are basically guarded like a slave… Only when you see their value and treat them as ordinary people, this is the most incredible point ——They are obviously unusual.”
Not only did you fail to see the value of witches, but you also ignored the power of the people. In fact, the potential of the latter is even more astonishing.
Witches are like catalysts. The combination of the two can bring about a leap in civilization. The more it develops, the greater this improvement will be.
However, Roland didn’t say what was in his heart, “It’s still too late to make amends, after all, we belong to the same origin.”
“Your Highness, the boiler has been boiled, and the Victory can set sail at any time.” Qinweihui reported.
“Let everyone get on the boat, I’ll be here right away.” The prince looked at Pei Luo after giving instructions, “The guidance team from the Ministry of Agriculture should arrive in the afternoon, and they will tell you how to plant Gold No. 1. As for the mining of mines Construction, population expansion, popularization of education, and opening of factories have been discussed enough at the meeting, just implement according to the plan, try to solve any problems by yourself first, and tell me if it doesn’t work.” He patted the eldest son of the Honeysuckle family “After I leave, this place will be handed over to you. Work hard, the executive officer of Changsong District will not be your end.”
“I will not disappoint your expectations, Your Highness.” Pei Luo bowed.
Roland boarded the cement boat and gave the order to set off.
With the siren sounding, the Victory slowly left the shore and headed for the border area.
*******************
“Which bald boat is this?” Joe clicked his tongue, “They all come from the direction of the town!”
“Then It’s called the Frontier District, didn’t the lord say that we’re a city with the town now,” Snake Fang curled his lips, the bald boat is Joe’s nickname for those weird boats without sails in the inland river, but he prefers stone boats The title–the broad gray hull was like a rock, and it wouldn’t budge even as the porters ran up and down on it.
“What’s it called?”
“Neverwinter.” Tiger Claw echoed.
“Whatever it is, it has nothing to do with us,” Joe yelled excitedly, “You will also take such a boat when you go to the town, remember to take a good look, why they can move without sails or oars, the white mist sprayed from the top and What is the black smoke!”
This really has nothing to do with us, Snake Fang thought to himself, after the city is built, everyone will be able to find a job after all.
“You really don’t plan to stay?” Aoi looked a little sullen, “They are all handymen, why do you have to go to a strange place?”
“One more silver wolf,” Tiger Claw said cheerfully, “Stay here It’s six silver wolves’ wages, but it’s seven for going there, anyway, it’s all about work, so of course choose the one with more money.”
“I didn’t ask you,” Kui gave him a white look, and fixed her eyes on Snake Fang.
For some reason, Snake Fang suddenly felt a little guilty.
After the establishment of Neverwinter City, the lord seemed to fulfill his promise. There were countless recruitment announcements in the square overnight, but there were not many opportunities for mice. Most of them were handymen and mason apprentices, and their salaries were lower than others.
Of course, no matter what, it would be better than being hungry and full when you were a mouse-if the salary can be paid to the hand on time as stated in the announcement.
For several partners, he said that going to the border area would make more money, but his real thought was that it was closer to the white paper. Looking at Aoi’s scrutinizing eyes, he swallowed the words again, “My idea… …It’s the same as Tiger Claw.”
“Then will you guys come back?”
“Tick——tick——” At this moment, a whistle sounded in the direction of the pier, and a red flag waved.
“It’s our turn, let’s go!” Tiger Claw grabbed his hand and pulled him towards the pier.
With the sound of the whistle, the crowd around him also surged. When they entered the inspection passage, they were almost pushed forward. Snake Fang hugged his luggage on his chest while looking back. Unfortunately, there was a crowd of people behind him. He couldn’t find Aoi and Joe at all.
Several black-clothed police officers were checking the boarding pass at the end of the passage, “Your name? The assigned team? Show me the proof!”
After Tiger Claw passed by, it was his turn soon, and Snake Fang took out the warm card from his underwear pocket. He carefully handed the crumpled note to the policeman, “Snake Tooth, the Fifth Construction Team of the Red Flag Group, look…” The
other party ignored his “introduction” at all, opened the boarding pass and glanced, impatiently It patted on his chest, “The boat on the left, the next one!”
Board the side of the ship, UU read www.sonicmtl.
com Tigerpaw was already waiting for him at the entrance.
“It’s unbelievable that they didn’t ask for extra coins.”
“Yeah… they didn’t.” Snake Fang absently refolded the certificate, put it back in his arms, and looked at the dock area, looking for the location of his partner.
It wasn’t until the stone boat made a high-pitched sound and slowly sailed away from the pier that he found two people on a stone step beside the embankment—Aoi was waving Joe’s coat, and Joe was curled up with his arms folded. behind her.
Snake Tooth quickly took off his coat, ignoring the surprised gazes of others, and shook it vigorously.
The eyes of the two finally met again.
“Take care!” he yelled, and the other party seemed to be saying something, but the roar of the ship overwhelmed each other’s voices.
Aoi chased along the embankment for a while, but was still pulled further and further away by the stone boat, and gradually disappeared from sight.
Until the end, Snake Tooth failed to give an answer.
