Become the city lord from today

Blackwater City, located on the Heishui River, a branch of the Youshui River, even the name of the city is also named after the Blackwater River, the location is not very good, or in winter, this location is very poor.

Because the Blackwater River is frozen, it is not possible to sail by boat, the distance between Blackwater City and Youshui River, it takes a day to take a horse-drawn carriage, let alone walk on foot, I am afraid that I will be frozen after walking for half a day, so Blackwater City has become an isolated city.

The Lord of Blackwater City, Binsa, was sitting in the castle in distress, next to him stood his daughter, Sheeran with short black hair and brown eyes, both of them were worried about the grain storage of Blackwater City.

"Father, our grain in Blackwater City is only enough for everyone to eat for about twenty days, and this is still a situation of saving food and thrift." Sheeran whispered.

"This..." Binser opened his mouth, and finally turned into a helpless sigh, what can be done? Their Blackwater City was already barren, and before winter came, they were robbed by horse thieves once, resulting in a shortage of food in their Blackwater City.

How can you buy grain in other cities, many cities do not sell wheat in winter, not to mention that they do not have any gold coins.

Pencer is a baron nobleman, and his family has been a nobleman of Blackwater City for generations, or in other words, Blackwater City is an old city, and after five city lords, they are all members of the Spencer family, and the next city lord is Sheeran.

In fact, the lord of Blackwater City, Bencer, lives a life not as good as ordinary businessmen, and he is too worried about the commoners of Blackwater City, or in other words, a good nobleman who loves the people.

Spencer did not exploit the commoners, and his life was miserable, feeling like a village chief, not like the lord of a city; He lived a better life than the commoners, but he was very popular with the civilians, and when something was said, the civilians rushed to help, which was a comfort.

"Father, shall I take the knight hunting?" Sheeran pressed one hand on the knight's longsword at his waist and said with relief, "At least this can last a little longer." "

"Forget it, it's hard to find prey in winter, don't freeze it, it's not worth the loss." Pencer shook his head and stopped him, he was reluctant to let his only daughter take risks, and he was left with such a daughter.

The generation of Pencer was desolate, his wife died when his daughter was thirteen years old, and he raised his daughter alone without taking another wife.

"This... Father, how about I go to another city and ask for some wheat, and I will return it to them next summer? Sheeran couldn't bear to see his old father frown all day.

"They won't borrow it." Spencer shook his head and smiled bitterly, what virtues the nobles of other cities, he knew too well, they were all selfish people, otherwise, he would not be ridiculed as a good old man.

Blackwater City is just a small city of 2,000 people, many people in the city have blood relations with Bincer, and some of the grandfathers and ancestors of the commoners are still the knights of the ancestors of the Bincers, which makes him so ruthless to watch the civilians starve to death.

"But..." Sheeran was anxious, this is not okay, is it not okay, is it necessary to wait for the wheat to eat, everyone is waiting for death?

"Go down, let me think about it." Spencer waved his hand.

Sheeran looked at his father's face, the wrinkles had several more layers, the white hair on the top of his head was more, pursed his mouth, his brown eyes flashed a trace of determination, and turned to leave.

She had to find a way to get some food, not everything, as long as she could share it for her father, she was afraid that if she continued like this, her old father would fall ill.

Hiran put on a few sheepskin clothes, a knight's sword around his waist, and a spear in his hand, and left the castle with these two things, standing outside the castle, looking at the ruined castle walls, his brown eyes full of tenacity.

"I will definitely make Blackwater City a big city, and the castle will also become bigger, Father, you can rest assured." Shi Lan said in his heart, turned around and walked outside Blackwater City.

A few hundred meters away from Blackwater City is the Blackwater River, a river channel more than thirty wide, now all frozen in ice, and the ice is as thick as two slaps.

"Whew... It's so cold. "Sheeran moved her hands and feet and went down to the ice of the Blackwater River, and she wanted to cut through the ice to fish, which was just a whim.

She used to be a good fisherman, often poked the fish with a spear, and every time she could feed her old father, it was also the most joyful moment.

"Whew~~" Sheeran took a deep breath, and then held the spear and poked at the ice, not to mention, this ice layer was really hard, and it took more than twenty minutes to poke out an ice hole the size of a bucket.

Sheeran gasped, exercising in winter was really physically exhausting, especially if you didn't eat well.

"Good, it depends on whether any fish pass by." Sheeran took a spear and half-squatted on the edge of the ice cave, and in the most stupid way, he stood dumbfounded, waiting for the fish to emerge.

She has no other way, hunting in winter, maybe she can't find prey for days, and she has to consume more wheat to maintain her strength, but she will lose more.

Ten minutes passed, and the ice cave soon froze again, which made Sheeran so distressed that he couldn't help but poke down with his spear.

"Huh?" Hiran froze, the touch of this spear was different, it was poked at something, and quickly pulled it up, and found a palm-sized fish on the tip of the spear.

"Really, really fish?" Sheeran's brown eyes widened, flashing with joy, and he was very excited, and quickly removed the fish from the tip of the spear.

"Great, watch me poke a few more fish and go back to cook soup for my father." Sheeran stood there again, this time poking the ice cave with his spear from time to time.

However, Lady Luck seemed to have abandoned Sheeran, and an hour passed, and the person was tired and panting, but he did not poke another fish.

"Gollum~~"

The most tragic thing was that Sheeran's hungry stomach cried out, and she couldn't help but pat her stomach and shouted, "Stomach, if you hold on, I'll poke a few more fish and go back." "

"Whew~~" Sheeran stood up straight, moved her hands and feet, especially the waist that had been bent, she turned her neck again, but she saw a black dot moving in the distance.

"Huh? Is it human? Sheeran frowned, puzzled, "Who will come out and walk in the winter?" "

Since the beginning of winter, no outsiders have come to Blackwater City, and no one has left Blackwater City.
