Knock Down That Tower

That afternoon Mrs. Shawin took Veria into town.

Hearing that Willy was going to take Veria to the Baron's New Year's dinner, Mrs. Shawin made a budget for ten silver rams. Although she was also very distressed, she also knew that Willy couldn't be embarrassed because of Veria's dress. After all, the current Willy's identity has been greatly different from the original one. He is a prominent figure in Diamond Town.

When Mrs. Shawin returned with Veria in the evening, Veria's face was filled with a smile that was even brighter than the setting sun on the horizon.

Her mother, Mrs. Shawin, personally selected a pure white winter dress for her, embellished with delicate lace and hollow patterns, which was the most beautiful dress she had worn since she was born.

She carefully put the clothes on her bedside, then uncharacteristically took the initiative to do the housework, and learned to cook with Mrs. Shawin.

Looking at Veria's performance, Willy's heart also has an inexplicable warmth.

While Mrs. Shawin and Veria were cooking, Willy chose to go out and stroll around the village.

The heavy snow had stopped at noon, but even with a little sunshine, it still couldn't melt the snow on the ground. No way, the weather is too cold.

Willy's leather boots left a deep footprint on the snow. As he walked, he looked at the houses beside Fandoutun Road.

As the New Year is approaching, the villagers hang out sun-dried meat pieces, frozen dough cakes, and some other foods in front of their doors. This is a custom in the area of ​​Diamond Town, which means that everyone expects to harvest abundant food in the new year.

In some homes with children, a snowman is built in the yard, and the dough is placed directly in the snowman's hand.

Through the setting sun on the horizon and the snow-reflected ground, Willy clearly felt the tranquility and simplicity of Fandoutun.

Lord Tunchang!

Old Joel and Aden's cheeks and noses were flushed with cold, and they were rushing home when they met Willy on the way.

Old Joel grinned as he faced Willy, showing his charred teeth. With the new year approaching, he also felt a deep sense of satisfaction.

Not to mention that the fragmented village has been rebuilt into a more prosperous and vibrant Fandoutun, just thinking of the changes in his own family, Old Joel really felt the meaning of the word happiness.

Fandoutun changed the living conditions of the old Yoel family.

When I was in the village, my family had to worry about how to survive. Fighting against pests, fighting against hunger, even though there is land, but cannot be cultivated because of pests, life is very heavy almost every day.

But now, Old Joel's son and daughter-in-law, Aden's parents, have been in charge of the work on the fields, and they have a sense of peace of mind when they see the mature sweet beans and Xingbanxuegen.

Old Joel himself played the role of the big housekeeper of Fandou Village, and he assisted Lake in many of the affairs in the village. It can be said that he is now the most prestigious person in the village besides the Willy family.

As for Aden, because he is valued by the colonists, he is also respected by other colonists. He follows Old Joel all day long, and runs errands whenever Willy has an order. Joel instructed to work in rotation in Fandoutun. Although tired, it has grown a lot.

The old Yoel family is the epitome of Fandoutun.

Even if he cast aside Willy's [Prestige] skill halo, he still gained the respect from the bottom of the hearts of the villagers.

I was looking for you.

Willie also took two steps forward.

Lord Tunchang, do you have any orders.

Old Joel said with a smile.

Aton, who was behind him, also nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

Before the butcher shop closes, go to Diamond Town tomorrow and buy some meat,

to the families in the village.

Willy instructed: As for how much to buy and how to distribute it, you can decide for yourself.

The current Fandoutun has a special financial income, which mainly comes from the deposit of the Duval family to purchase the Xingbanxuegen, and they gave a full 100 gold ram.

Of these 100 gold rams, 10% of them, that is, 10 gold lums were turned over to Baron Kells. Baron Kells was quite merciful to Willy, charging only a 10% tax. In the entire Diamond Town, only the villages of Willy and Ole have this treatment.

The remaining 90%, 10% of which is the remuneration of the villagers, has been distributed to each family. The population of Fandoutun is not large, and these ten gold rams are distributed to everyone, which is also a lot of income for the commoners.

As for the rest, 60% is the private property of the Fei Lun family, and 20% is used as the financial income of Fandoutun.

Now that the New Year is approaching, it is time to give full play to the role of this batch of fiscal revenue.

Appropriate welfare will better unite the hearts of the villagers and make them feel more of belonging to Fandou Village.

Don't worry, Mr. Tunchang, I will definitely handle it.

Old Joel's face wrinkled with a smile.

He originally wanted to give Willi this suggestion, but after hesitating for a long time, he didn't say it. Willy's talent and kindness have completely won the respect of old Joel.

Let's go, I'm walking around the village alone.

Willie waved his hand.

Shall I accompany you?

Old Joel said.

Willy waved his hand, indicating no need, he really wanted to experience this simple and peaceful atmosphere alone.

In the next hour, Willy walked around in the village. He walked very slowly and walked slowly to the village. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, he was about to return home.

However, before he took two steps, he heard the gradual sound of hoofs and a familiar voice calling his name.

Willie!

It was Thorpes' voice.

Willie looked back and saw Thorps galloping on his horse with a smile on his face.

Seeing this, Willy smiled and went forward.

Thorps reined in the horse and jumped off.

Why did you come back?

In fact, this is Willy's well-intentioned question.

As a newcomer to the Guards, Thorpes certainly cannot have a New Year's holiday this year. The reason why he can come back must be the operation of Sandor. He is a quick-witted guy, so naturally it is impossible for the vice-captain's own brother to work hard in the new year.

The ten-day New Year's holiday was approved by the above, and I hurried back.

Thorps also said with a smile that he did not feel restrained because Willy became his boss's boss. Facing Willy, he was still the original big brother.

Go back quickly, if father and mother know you are back, they will be very happy!

Willie moved his horse for Thorpes and walked towards the house.
