In the days of rebirth as a lord

Apart from the empty land, a group of freedmen and serfs who barely survived starvation, and an empty castle, the territory that His Royal Highness took over did not inherit a grain of food. It is simply absurd!

"I didn't expect the village to be so difficult. You have worked hard all these years." Cecil said holding back his anger.

Pickle seemed not aware of it, and said with guilt on his face: "I am incompetent, and I can't control those lazy villagers and slaves."

"It doesn't matter. From now on, Pirk, you can take a good rest. I will replace the laborious duties of the agricultural officer with someone else."

Cecil's words made Pickle's face change drastically.

"Your Highness, no!"

"Your Excellency Pickle! Please pay attention to your words! Your Highness is now the lord of Otto Village, no matter what you say or do, there is nothing wrong with it." Conrad interrupted Pickle and accused him unhappily .

Pickle also knew that he had made a slip of the tongue in his anxiety, so he quickly made amends: "The people your Highness brought from the capital must be smarter than me, but they just came here, and they don't know many things in the village, so they can't be responsible for farming. Such an important duty as an official. I am willing to continue to serve His Highness, and I am not afraid of hard work!"

"Don't worry, I will let the original villagers in the village take up the duties of the agricultural officer. Steward, I asked you to go to the village to check today. Which farmer in the village has the best harvest this year?"

Conrad answered immediately, "It's the Joseph family."

"Then let Joseph's family be in charge of the agricultural affairs officer. Tell them that next year they must not only guarantee the harvest of their own land, but also be responsible for the harvest of all the land in the village. If there is any good way to increase the harvest, it must not be hidden." Private. If the average harvest of all the land in the village next year is not as good as [-]% of his family's harvest this year, then the agricultural officer will have to be replaced by another family."

"But... But Joseph's family is illiterate, and they don't know how to record harvest data..." Pickle stammered.

Cecil looked at Pickle with interest: "So you can read? Do you have any records of the village's harvest in previous years? How much did each family harvest, how much tax did they pay, and where did the tax go..."

Pickle was speechless, of course he couldn't take it out and record it, even if he could take it out, he couldn't show it to His Highness!In the end, he lowered his head unwillingly: "I...I can't read..."

"Then there's no problem. You can't read or write and you've been a farm officer for so many years. If you want to come to Joseph's family, you can. If you really can't, I will arrange someone to record the harvest during the harvest season."

The appointment and dismissal of such an important post as the agricultural officer was decided in such an understatement.Cecil heard the long-lost system prompt beeping—【Ding!Changed the life trajectory of agricultural officer Picker Martin, indirectly saved the lives of [-] people, and gained [-] points of merit. 】

Um?One hundred and three lives?In other words, on the trajectory of the world where Cecil was still the original body, this Pickle will kill one hundred and three people in the future!

Cecil's eyes turned unkind when he saw Pickle, this guy was more hateful than he imagined.Originally thought that he was a person who cheated and enriched his own pockets, but he didn't expect so many lives to be involved!Maybe this person has already donated blood with his hands dyed, but he was not exposed.
