Chapter 194

Today is day two of the makeover.

The dungeon where the nobles were held was not as cold and damp as Newlander's impression. Instead, coal was continuously supplied for heating. In fact, the overall structure of the prison has also been refurbished and strengthened, and now it looks more like a hotel.

"Is it because we are nobles that we enjoy such treatment?" Newland took a look at the meal delivered. Although there was only one piece of white bread and dried grilled fish, they were rare items not seen in farmers' homes.

"No, Your Excellency, in fact, all prisoners are treated equally here, and you will not be treated preferentially because of your status. Enjoy this delicious meal, and it will be your turn to try out later." Dukas put the tray Put it away, and ask the other party to eat quickly.

Compared with the plight of the manor under his rule, even the nobles can only go out to rob their houses. The prisoners here are better off than them. Newland has a special feeling in his heart.

"Oh, it's so delicious. It doesn't have a dry taste. I thought these guys would put some mud in the bread to humiliate me. It's a pity that there are too few of them. I can't finish it."

"I can recite the eight regulations proficiently, and I also know the content of the little red book by heart. Can you give me more grilled fish? Multiple pieces of bread are also fine."

Before Newland came back to his senses, the surrounding cells started to make noise, but it was not a disturbance. Everyone was intoxicated by the delicious food, praying for a little more charity, probably because they hadn't eaten for a long time.

"Quiet and quiet. The daily servings are fixed. If you really want to have a good meal, you will have a great chance to join the city hall in the future." The management officials who maintained order suppressed the hustle and bustle on the field, and some of them were silent , and some are licking the residue in the container in a gaffe.

Newland took a small bite tentatively, and an unprecedented feeling came to the tip of his tongue. The indescribable silkiness made Newland unable to stop his hand from sending it to his mouth.

"It seems that I am really hungry. No, this feeling is not the usual one. They must have adopted some special method. They can have such accomplishments in food. They are really full of curiosity in other fields. "Newland added another point to Hafleur's mystique.

"bang"

"Nulland, it's your turn." Dukas opened the cell door and released the shackles on Nuland's feet.

Nuland looked at the meaning of the other party, as if he had no intention to untie the shackles on his hands, so he asked: "Just untie the shackles on my feet? You can remove my weapon, can you please help me untie the shackles?" Open your hand."

Dukas turned his eyes back and refused, and was ready to lead the other party out and stand by, "Rules are rules, and everyone must abide by them. Before the end of the inspection period, all nobles must wear handcuffs. Don't worry, their length is determined by Carefully designed, it will only limit your dangerous behavior, but it will not hinder your daily work, although the efficiency will be greatly reduced."

"I understand. This is also part of Hafleur's philosophy, emphasizing the importance of rules." Newland did not intend to argue hard, and obeyed the opponent very wisely.

"Smart, it seems that you will be able to adapt here soon."

According to the previous experience of the nobles, Dukas arranged Newland's first trial position in the mediation room, which was mainly responsible for coordinating civil disputes in the city.

"Hello, this is Newlander. This position is his first job. Please give me some pointers." Dukas patted Newlander on the shoulder after ordering the rest of the chores and encouraged him: " Well done and I look forward to working with you."

The shackles on his hands were very eye-catching. Newland wanted to cover his hands under the stage, but was stopped.

"You don't have to be like this. No one will discriminate against you because of your identity. Their attitude towards you only depends on your work ability."

Newland bowed his head and said, "Sorry, I will improve." Then he put his hands back on the table, and the handcuffs were clearly displayed in everyone's sight.

The first citizen he received looked like a farmer from his attire, but his radiant face was a bit more radiant than his own.The other party glanced at the handcuffs on the table, and didn't worry too much. The civilians had long been accustomed to this. The farmer opened the wooden chair with one hand and sat down, and began to explain his experience.

"I am a small farmer, and I am only responsible for cultivating one-third of an acre of land. Recently, I have suddenly developed a strong interest in God. Can you tell me the specific details? I know you are all literate, and the things in the Bible I can't even understand it, and the priest's words are sometimes too mysterious, can you please explain it in a layman's terms."

Newlander didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He thought the other party was crying about his tragic experience, or he was feeling bad luck and begging to make decisions for the people. He didn't expect it to be such a trivial matter, but he would have been arrested and beaten up long ago. , but Newlandt still decided to solve the doubts for the other party.

Without a full overview, Newlandt only told the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, and incorporated his own opinions, and the language was expressed as popular as possible.

"So, what we are doing now is for the atonement?" the farmer asked half understanding.

Newland nodded, maybe the other party understood what he said, "Indeed, in order to return to heaven, everything I have done now is worthwhile."

"That couple of dogs and men are really not human. They only wanted to be happy, but they made us suffer too. If I really want to meet this kind of people, they have to go around without eating." The farmer is also straightforward. Scolding, all kinds of foul language are used.

The words and deeds of the farmer really are a serious crime of blasphemy, but seeing that the people around them did not respond, Newland also automatically ignored the past.

After seeing off the chatting farmers, the mediation room was filled with many people one after another. There were vendors and customers who were arguing over product issues, and some were entangled to the point of collapse because they didn’t know whether to walk with their left or right foot first. Women, everyone's problems may seem small, but Newlandt devotes all his energy to answer them one by one.

After a busy day, both absurdity and rigor exist in Newland's thoughts. On the one hand, people will always struggle with some strange problems. In Newland's cognition, ordinary people should only think about what to eat next Yes, but the civilians in Harfleur are actually interested in astronomy and geography.

On the other hand, although the two parties had great conflicts in the dispute, they were able to proficiently cite laws and regulations as support, and even though they were full of gunpowder, they were still full of etiquette, without contempt and arrogance, which really surprised Newland.

"That's all for today's trial position. Dukas will take you back to prison later, and try another job tomorrow. After the trial position is over, we will arrange a suitable position for you based on your performance. "The man humbly bound and sealed Newland's resume himself.

By the time Newlandt returned to the prison, the first batch of trial knights had already started arguing inside.

"Do you know? These commoners don't even think of me as a nobleman. They feel that I'm just like him. What do you mean?"

"I'm a little tired from the work I'm doing. I've been sorting out the files today, and now I feel a headache when I see the words."

"I was very lucky. I was assigned to the brewery. They taught me some skills and let me taste it. Oh my god, it's a pity that the place will be changed tomorrow."

"What? Are you treated like this? I'm going to the winery too."

"Me too."

"I don't know if it will be my turn."

Newlander didn't want to join their conversation, and sat alone in his cell, thinking about what he had seen and heard today. Hafleur is indeed a unique city, full of unique charm.

When the dinner was served, the previous discussion was covered by bursts of exclamations, and everyone's nostalgia for the past was also reduced a bit. Newland swallowed, picked up the white bread and carefully Enjoy it.
