I'm really a crispy French

Now that things were going well, and Morifio, who was intoxicated, was watching, Leon and Eldi hurried away with the cat in their arms.

Originally, the two of them were going towards the village hall—it was a relatively large wooden house, but there were only three walls, and there were two horizontal bars on the side without walls, and a sliding door in the middle.There are several iron cages behind the house.There is a square in front of the house, and there is a row of notice boards in the official field, as well as guillotines and scaffolding.

A general city should also have a public platform, which is the kind of wooden yoke that binds people's heads and hands.Leon refused, and all public punishments were changed to hard labor.The original intention of this kind of punishment is to make people feel ashamed, but after being punished like this once or twice, people will have no shame at all. Instead of doing that, it is better to let them do some human affairs.

Factory recruitment, trials, promulgation of new laws, etc., are also carried out here.In the early days, the village hall was basically a decoration, but now it's getting busier.

Recently, the boats sending immigrants to Hope City are not only the boats of the Modosu family, but also many businessmen who are purely for making money, or ship owners who do not have fixed routes but trade passengers.The port is becoming more and more lively, and the market area planned by Hope Village has changed from all tourist merchants to a [-]-[-] ratio of tourist merchants and fixed merchants.

Hotels, restaurants and taverns were built one after another, and pastry shops and clothing stores were also indispensable.All this shows that the demand of the local people is rising and the economic environment is getting better and better.

But the rapid expansion of the population has also brought a lot of nasty things, and there are more and more thefts, robberies, and frauds.

=. = Leon also saw the familiar low-end classic trick two days ago - a chicken with a chrysanthemum stitched on it!He thought this kind of deception was unique to Diller City.The deceived person was Lily, an old acquaintance. Now this woman has grown into an extremely big waist. At that time, she...was covered in chicken feces, including her face.With a frenzied look on her face, she grabbed a skinny little man, who was the one who sold her the chicken.

This is a criminal case, which was heard by Eldi, and Leon, who was watching, exhausted his willpower so as not to laugh madly on the spot.

As for Eldy... Leon saw him pinching his thigh the whole time.

The village is in urgent need of magistrates and judges. Although using these knights to do these things is a bit overkill, I hope these trivial things can further wear down the gloom of the knights, right?

There is still a case waiting for the two of them over there.But while walking, Leon suddenly stopped.

Eldy: "?"

"Although five hundred knights have relieved our pressure, you haven't been able to train for a few days? I'm going to find Mombe and explain the matter to him."

In fact, this is not just a question of whether there is time to train, but a question of whether you will be exhausted.Now Aldi has taken back the power of personnel management part by part. Of course, it is said that he is in charge, but in fact the two of them are in charge together, but the workload is still huge.Today he took a little time to receive these knights, and he didn't know how long he would be busy at night, but if he said that, Leon felt that Eldy would probably be brave.

"We need him very much at this stage, not only for his personal ability, but also for his connections. But once you speak up, he can't stay. And...Mombey probably doesn't think he's cheating." On the contrary, we will think that we are greedy for power when we are young.

"I understand what you mean. So after you raised his problem, I didn't let him go, but kept silent like you. But now he should become an obstacle to the development of the village. The big businessman still only has the Modosu family, Although they are very good, they let us have no second choice. The immigrants who were sent were too simple, and they were not as good as the free people who heard the news. "

The two taverns and restaurants in the village were opened by small businessmen who came over from Yarman City, and most of the other shops were opened by merchants who had done business a few times and thought it was a good place to settle down. There were also various craftsmen and others. So did the immigrants in the small immigrant flotillas.There is only a large immigrant ship sent by the Modosu family. The people they sent seem to have been specially screened. There is not even a decent craftsman. Recently, there are more and more thieves and robbers.

Leon and Eldy knew about these things, but they didn't mention them to Mombe, and they didn't know whether he really didn't know, or he was just pretending to be stupid.

"But these things are not a big hindrance to our village now, but now the village is very small, if..." Eldy looked at Leon, "No, you are right, do as you say."

"Can you finish your opinion? Because I always ignore a lot." Although he changed his mind midway, Leon felt that he should finish listening.

"You are strong yourself, and you have the Holy See, the God of Nature, behind you, so you can use any tough method you want." Eldi raised his left hand and his right hand horizontally. The invisible weight he holds in his hands is two kinds of considerations, "Mombey is a local snake, after we tell him, he will leave, he may not resent us himself, but he has no way to continue to grab more benefits from us People will resent us and even make trouble for us. At this stage, the village is still very fragile, and it is likely to be severely damaged by these troubles."

Aldi pressed his left hand down: "But I found that your ability is more important. Besides, we are children. If anyone dares to make trouble, then kill them! No matter how big the trouble is, you can use children to suffer It can’t be explained by bullying. Mumbe’s delay doesn’t seem serious, but I filtered it just now and realized that it is already serious. And the more the village develops, the more serious it will be.”

Leon gave Erdi a thumbs up, and Erdi pressed his thumb down: "My paranoia has delayed things until now, which is not commendable."

"No, you mentioned a lot of situations that I didn't expect. The attitude I talked to Mombe just now is absolutely different. Do you want to come with me?"

"No. There are many things to do." Aldi pointed in the direction of the village hall, "and it is almost the time for the court session we announced yesterday."

It's very lively there now. If it wasn't for the fact that the land around the village hall is not for sale at this stage, the circle around the small square would have been busier than the trade area.Not being able to buy a store can't stop people's desire to buy things. Before the court session every day, many people will go to sell things with a big box on their backs.

Therefore, Eldi is a real matter, but it is also an expression of trust.And he found that Leon's straight-forward, ingenious behavior was more suitable than his thinking more in some cases.For example, in the case of Mombe, even if he didn't point out that Mombe was eating inside and outside of the paper, he couldn't tolerate Mombe now.

"Come on." Leon waved to Eldi and turned to another direction.

Mombe is also busy now, almost all the personnel management matters have been handed over, but he still manages most of the logistics, and now these tasks are getting heavier and heavier.Although the knights who followed Leon knew how to write and count, asking them to sit down and settle accounts would kill them.

Five hundred knights came over yesterday, and Mombe took a look and left.Knowing that they still had action this morning, Mombe did not follow, and still handled official business at his home as usual.To deal with the matter temporarily, Mombe stood up, opened the window, and moved his body facing the window.

"You didn't go to see the excitement today." Leon's head suddenly stuck out from the window, startling Mombe.

"Eh? Yes, I didn't go today, because I don't think I can help you, and you already have your own plans." Before he expressed any opinions, they had already discussed what to do. up.

Leon read his subtext: "Whether we exclude you from doing things, or we take away your power, don't you envy or resent?"

"Of course not! How is it possible?!" Mombe straightened his neck instantly, "Even if you are a lord and a child, you can't use this kind of speculation to insult others arbitrarily!"

"Your family, or people close to you are also making paper?"

Like a balloon being stuck, Mombe, who was still tense just now, loosened, and his face was a little red: "I...I'm...really..."

"You feel like you're an outsider, you feel like you're going to leave at any moment, so you don't feel anything about us clumping together, or taking your power. It doesn't have anything to do with your moral character, you just don't think 'these ’ is yours, or something you should go for.”

Leon grabbed the window frame, propped his body up with his hands, and sat on the edge of the window frame: "But for papermaking, there is no instruction from the Holy See. No one in the Principality of Gretel has the courage to reach out, but even if the Holy See allows it, it is actually because I am here, you know this, right? Using the papermaking technology I provided, I can engage in this business unscrupulously because of my existence, but when I have promised not to sell paper for a year, refuse to provide me with manpower .”

The redness on Mombe's face had spread to his neck, and he started to tremble, Leon continued: "By the way, I have to add one more point, the Holy See will probably think that all the paper sold in the Principality of Gretel was produced by me, Or it is also related to me, so it will provide various conveniences. Like this kind of method of eating meat and drinking blood, and in turn stumbling, can it explain a person's moral problems?"

"I..." Mombe was taking deep breaths, and when Leon suspected that he would faint at any time, he stabilized, "I did...do something wrong, but my original intention is the same as your wild guess Not the same."

"Go ahead, I'm here to listen."

"When you asked me for manpower, I really delayed on purpose, because... because I think this village will be destroyed sooner or later. It would be a waste of one more outsider to know papermaking. Because when the village is destroyed, Once these people are exiled and more outsiders know about papermaking, it will cause huge losses to the church."

"It's not just that the people I asked for are outsiders. In your eyes, everyone in this village except you is outsiders, right?"

"If you want to be sarcastic, please do whatever you want. But with all due respect, you should live in the orphanage of the church and receive an education, rather than doing the work of an adult as a child." Mombe completely let go, and you can Saying that he gave up, he said what he wanted to say from the first time he saw Leon, "You spent a lot of money and force to make a group of useless people fat and stupid, Even if you come up with papermaking skills, this kind of waste is stupid! And what you waste is not your own money, but the wealth of the church!"

"So what if you build a splendid city here? The money to build a city according to your method is enough to make a country rich!"

"Do you think you're leaving?" Leon asked him with his chin propped up.

"Even if you keep me, I won't stay!"

"No, whether I stay or not doesn't depend on whether you are willing or not, but on me. I let you stay not because I need you. I made the situation clear today because I want you to get out. But you really are It's so annoying, so I'm going to let you stay and watch me waste it."

If it's really just a bastard who eats inside and outside, Leon will kill him to fertilize himself, but the situation of Mombe is very annoying to Leon.Not only did Mombe not think that he was wrong, on the contrary, he thought that he was thinking of everything for Leon, an annoying child. He was creating a retreat for him and helping him minimize losses.

"Don't do the logistical work, Morifio will take over later." Leon jumped out of the window and went straight to the village hall to find Eldi.

After Leon and Eldi left, Morifeo sat directly on the ground, closed his eyes and focused on the "beautiful" crying.When the people inside gradually calmed down, he stood up, walked into the arena, and circled around to comfort and take care of the others.

Some people have already fainted from crying. This is the best way to deal with it, just move into the dormitory next door.There are also some people who cried and cried and started fighting with other people. They didn't need fighting spirit and didn't know how to use divine power. It was the simplest kind of hand-to-hand combat. He couldn't move on the ground, but his eyes became brighter.Some cried and hugged and kissed the people next to them, both men and women, men and women, such... Let them go back to the dormitory quickly.

The rest of Morifio looked at their situation and asked them to follow him to the cafeteria for dinner.Today I eat tonkatsu, beef pie, cheese bread, small cakes for dessert, and fruit milk as a drink.

The food last night and this morning was also very rich, but everyone's sense of smell and taste seemed to be abolished. Now after they cried bitterly, they seemed to be able to smell the smell sitting in the restaurant.

"This is the recipe provided by our village chief." Morifio introduced with a smile. That little fellow Leon really knows how to enjoy it. How did he make these delicacies?The little guy Eldi is really strict with his mouth. It wasn't until the establishment of the village that he revealed that Leon was a good cook. "Eat, I swear, the pope's tongue is not treated like this."

"If we were the Sun Knight, we would grab you to our death now." A bold female knight laughed loudly.

Morifio shrugged: "If you were the Sun Knights, I wouldn't be able to entertain you so sumptuously. A glass of salt water and a piece of ancient bread are enough."

Old-fashioned bread is actually unfermented dead flour bread, and it must be "whole wheat" with a lot of wheat bran in it. The name of an old-fashioned bread is just for the sake of sound.

"You are so harsh!"

"Only Discipline Knights eat that kind of food now, right?"

"So they all have rotten teeth."

The knights were discussing enthusiastically, which was actually an embarrassing cover-up.After all, as a young knight, crying loudly in front of a large crowd just now is really... a little bit of dignity.

"Morifeo." During this commotion, a tentacle suddenly popped out, and this tentacle can still talk? !

The knights around Morifeo drew their swords in an instant, and Morifeo opened the protective shield immediately: "This is the power of the village chief!" He yelled at the top of his voice, stretching his arms In front of the tentacles.

Then... the roof of the cafeteria exploded.

With a loud bang, seven or eight big holes appeared.

They are all fighters who have fought for the rest of their lives. Their mood has just been adjusted slightly, but they are not at all vigilant.On the battlefield, the hands usually move before the brain, and they are already elite if they can even redirect the power they send out.

The tentacle obediently hid behind Morifio, and waited for the sawdust and smoke to subside before saying: "Morifeo, Mombe is going to rest for a while, you go and take over his work."

Morifeo turned around. If Leon's body was here, he probably couldn't help but beat up the kid: "Okay, I'll go right away."

"Thank you." The tentacles happily clicked twice, without eyes, only the tip of a mouth turned around, "I'm sorry to disturb everyone's meal. There is a barbecue dinner tonight, and I have prepared a special seasoning, I hope everyone will like it.”

Looking at this weird tentacle, everyone who was still very itchy smiled awkwardly...

Hogan was writing, but what he wrote seemed to make him very worried. He had to rub his head with the pen twice after writing two strokes. There was an obvious bald area on his forehead, which should be rubbed by him with the pen.

"Father Hogan. Father Hogan!"

"Ah? Oh!" Hogan suddenly came back to his senses. He was still terrified when he turned his head and saw the tentacles. He touched his chest, "Leon, can you let the tentacles stay outside the door next time?"

"And when you hear someone calling you, go out and open the door..."

"..." It must be admitted that the situation would indeed be more terrifying than it is now, "Cough! If I didn't say anything, what's wrong?"

"You can communicate with the local archbishop. Ask him to send someone... No, send some more people. No priest is needed. Ordinary apprentices, priests, and monks are fine. The only requirement is that they have a decent character and can read Just write."

"..."

"What's the matter?" Tentacle thought that what he asked Hogan to do was not a big deal, but Hogan was contemplative and didn't speak for at least 3 minutes.

"He has a decent character, as long as he can read and write?" Hogan asked cautiously.

Leon didn't understand his situation even more, but he felt a little relieved - he probably didn't want to intercede for Mombe: "Yes, what we lack now are teachers, clerks, tax collectors, judges, etc. Civil servants in the village. This kind of young people can get started immediately when teachers and clerks come, because the situation in our village is different, so the civil servants need training, and it is more convenient for young people to train like this.”

"That's great." Having said that, Hogan didn't seem relieved, "Then, do you mind if these people are believers in the God of Nature?"

"How could I mind? I have also converted. You, Morifio, and the knights are all believers in the God of Nature. Now there are more and more believers in the God of Nature in the village. Although Eldi has not formally converted , but it should just be a matter of his personal character."

"I think it's just because you converted, so he didn't bother to convert..." Hogan muttered in a low voice, and Leon actually felt that what he said was quite right, "Cough! Since you don't mind, maybe I can just take nature The children of the Orphanage of the Church of God recommended it to you."

As soon as Hogan said it, Leon knew what the orphanage was.It is not the ordinary orphanage that Leon has seen before, but the orphanage that Archbishop Huerta once recommended Leon to enter. The youth of the middle nobles is only one status away.

"Aren't the children who come out of the orphanage there given priority to enter the church?" Leon couldn't understand that these children had no father or mother, no family encumbrance, and they were brainwashed by the church since they were young. Bah, educated, they will be the most devout believers when they come out , and capable, it should be a talent that everyone is vying for, right?

"The church's territory has been fixed, but there will always be a lot of orphans. Moreover, I'm talking about those orphans who failed to become awakened ones. They just know how to read and count, but..."

"Huh? I thought they could all become awakened ones."

"No, only the best, or those with special circumstances, can become awakened and stay in the church. Others have to leave the orphanage after the age of 16. Although the church tries its best to arrange jobs for them, some things The church is also helpless."

"I want it! I want as much as I have!" In this case, of course Leon wants as much as he can.

"Great!" Hogan happily pulled out a large box. As soon as the box was opened, there was a scent of flowers, because the box was full of morning glory for communication.

All the flowers do not have a single color repeating, but it should be difficult for normal people to remember whose petunias belong to them, right?Hogan can't remember either, so he has a small cloth strip with his name written on it tied to each flower.
