In the days of rebirth as a lord

Chapter 55 Caravan Return

At the same time, Cecil was very regretful, regretting that the yeast powder sold to the slave trader Bruqi was sold cheaply.There is so much yeast powder, so that Bruci's hundreds of slaves were exchanged. Based on the current income calculation, at most half of the amount needed to be given to Bruci at that time!

"Good! Good! Good!" Cecil said three good words to express his satisfaction, and said to the people in the caravan with a pleasant face: "You have all worked hard, take a good rest. I haven't come back for so long, A lot of things have happened in the village, and there have been many changes, so let’s get acquainted with it today. When everyone returns, I will hold a celebration banquet for you.”

In addition to the verbal commendation, Cecil also distributed a travel fee to everyone in the caravan. The ordinary laborers were given some food, and the little chiefs were given a few silver coins. As for managers like Yuan Yi, they were directly rewarded with gold coins. !

The money is touching, and other people are very envious when they see the rewards that the people in the caravan get.

"You guys have gained a lot by going out this time, and it's more cost-effective than our soldiers!" This is the patrol guard chatting with the people who came back from the caravan.

"But we have also worked very hard. If we are away from home, if we are not lucky and do not encounter any robbers, we may not be able to return. This money can be regarded as our life-saving exchange."

"Why didn't we work hard when we were soldiers? We only defeated a group of robbers two days ago, and we killed several people..." "Didn't Your Highness reward you with land? It's still tax-free, much more than these few silver coins There are too many!" The people in the caravan were also a little envious of the land that the soldiers got.

Especially those who originally belonged to the patrol guards, but were assigned to protect the caravan. When they came back and saw that their former brothers now have their own land, they felt as if they had eaten a few lemons!

When it comes to the land, the soldiers will no longer be greedy for a few silver coins and a few catties of grain, but they still have to say something modest: "We fight here, maybe we won't meet once in a few years. It's different for you to go to business. You have to go out several times a year, right? Your Highness is a generous and generous lord, and he will definitely reward you every time you come back, and you will earn more than us!"

After hearing this, the people in the caravan thought it was the same reason, so they didn't feel lemon anymore, and said: "I don't know when the next time will be..." After a short rest, Yuan Yi also talked to Cecil about the next business trip: "Your Highness, next time you go out, I'm afraid you will have to arrange more people for us."

"Oh? Did something happen on the road?" Cecil asked.

Yuan Yi said solemnly: "We are lucky that we didn't encounter a large group of robbers this time. There are some small robber gangs who dare not attack us when they see that there are so many people. Therefore, we can bring the goods back safely this time. But next time It will definitely not be so lucky, when the news that our caravan has received a lot of goods will spread, there will be many robbers looking at us specifically. Even, it may not only be robbers who are staring at us."

Nowadays, some small nobles gather some armed forces to pretend to be robbers and rob caravans, which have always been emerging in endlessly.The reason why Cecil has not met so far is probably because the nobles are giving him a little face for this unlucky prince who has just arrived—after all, they all know that he is not good.But after the name of the fortune is spread, people will no longer judge the prince's face, and the real money that is grabbed is the hard currency.

In this regard, Cecil also felt that Yuan Yi's consideration was very necessary: ​​"Okay, before you go out next time, you can discuss with Mu Ziyu and ask him to select 20 more people from the patrol guards for the caravan."

A war, plus a business trip, Cecil distributed a lot of rewards to those who made meritorious deeds.Although many Han people are still slaves, they have accumulated some private property during this period, and even live a better life than some civilians in the village!At this time, the desire to pick up the Hui people to live together in Aote Village became stronger.The food and money they have saved can barely support the tribe, and those lands must be cultivated by someone, right?Soldiers are busy with training and have no time to do farm work. Instead of spending food and hiring other people in the village to farm, it is better to let your own people do it.No matter how hard it is to farm the land, it is better than living in the forest with today and no tomorrow.

"Young patriarch, now we have lived the life we ​​expected before, but our relatives are still suffering in the deep mountains and forests! The forest is dark and humid, not only snakes, insects, rats and ants, but also wild beasts... we The Han people are hardworking, His Highness can buy so many slaves back, why can’t we take in our other tribesmen? When our tribesmen work, they must be more diligent than those slaves bought back!”

Mu Ziyu's heart was also a little moved. As the young patriarch supported by the clansmen, he naturally hoped that the clansmen would live well.I didn't mention this before, because it is very difficult for His Highness to maintain the status quo of the village, but now life is getting better and better, grain is piled up in the granary, and feeding hundreds of people is no longer a problem, it seems that it is time to mention it.

Mu Ziyu said, "Let me ask His Highness what you mean."

The clansmen quickly nodded: "Go and ask, His Highness is the most kind, and he will definitely agree. If it is not possible, you can talk to His Highness, everyone knows how much His Highness values ​​you, and His Highness will definitely consider it if you intercede." It's..." These words made Mu Ziyu's face change: "We have already received enough favors from His Highness, how can we still pretend to influence His Highness's thoughts? If His Highness disagrees, we can't have any double-mindedness." At worst, save some food and send it back to the clansmen, this is also a way to help them."

Mu Ziyu went to Cecil and proposed the idea of ​​taking all the tribesmen over.

After hearing what Mu Ziyu said, Cecil immediately said: "Of course I can take it! I thought you didn't mention it all the time because you didn't trust me..." Mu Ziyu immediately explained : "I've never thought about it this way! Your Highness was also very difficult before. In order to feed the people in the village, I even exchanged my own gold and silver utensils for food. How can I increase the burden on you, Your Highness!"

"You just worry too much. If there is not enough food, I will naturally find a way. Gold and silverware are dispensable. But if you want the territory to develop well, the people are the most important. In short, you can take it with confidence. Come on, your clansmen, I will accept as many people as you come, now the village is developing, and manpower is very scarce."

After learning about His Highness's attitude, all the Han people were very happy, and hurriedly planned to go to the clan's place to connect.
