After making money, the husband who abandoned me came back
Chapter 130 Border Guard
Mark pushed a wheelbarrow and walked on the vast wilderness outside Fabimont.The scorching sun above his head made him sweat profusely.But he couldn't quench his fiery heart.
The harvest at his family is particularly good this year.
One of his relatives is Mrs. Korba, who brought him a kind of grain called potato stalks and taught him how to plant them.
His relative was originally poorer than him.During the rainy season of the previous year, the entire field was devastated and there was no harvest.At that time, he also gave him a hand.
But no one is very rich.After a few times, his relative and his family members stopped coming and there was no sound.
Although he was also worried about them, the situation at home did not allow him to be too kind. It was just the last time, when he really felt sorry for the few children in the other's family who were waiting to be fed, and finally ignored his wife's obstruction, carrying a bag of food and rushing on the road overnight. When he came to his house, he found that the place was empty.
At that time, he thought that everyone in their family had starved to death, and their bodies had been dragged away to satisfy their hunger.
But who would have thought that in less than a year, the other party would become a small nobleman with considerable wealth.
He took a large amount of food and cloth, and even some exquisite utensils he had never seen before, and sent them to their home, thanking him for his donation back then.
Mark still remembers the other party sitting on a tall horse, wearing shining armor, with a solemn face, followed by a group of heavily armed soldiers.Even the lord of the land where Mark was located came to hear the news and treated him with courtesy.
Things got better for Mark's family after that.There is no need to worry about food, and the other party even expressed his willingness to take over his children to raise them.Because in Korbaf, every child can get a good education.In school, they will have free food and clothing.And when they come out, countless decent jobs are waiting for them to do, and they no longer have to plan food in the ground like their parents.
And precisely because the other party was a nobleman from Kolbaugh, he had several places available for him to use.
But Mark is not the kind of person who just takes advantage of others.
Although under the expectant and eager eyes of his wife and children, he finally nodded in response.But he emptied his family and let the children bring all the money there.I hope it can be used to offset their food and other expenses there.
His wife was very dissatisfied with this, and the situation of the family suddenly changed from surplus to poverty, and his relative sighed helplessly when he saw this.
Later, it was convenient to teach him the skill of planting potato stalks.
Mark and his wife secretly grew potato sprouts at home in this way, and then planted them in the middle of the night.After a few months, the harvest in their land surprised everyone around, even the lord.
It's just that when the other party learned that this was Kolbaugh's potato stick, the other party didn't dare to embarrass Mark, except for a look of admiration.
Today's Korbaf is no longer the weak territory that anyone can bully.
It was a city that was absolutely on the rise, with coveted wealth, civilians pouring in from the surrounding area, developed commerce, and a powerful knight order that made the great nobles tremble.
Even their ordinary soldiers, equipped with armor and sharp swords piled up with countless money, cannot be resisted by ordinary noble knights.
The only good thing is that the lord of Korbaugh seems to be a peace lover, unless someone takes the initiative to provoke him, he has always been kind to others.
In this way, under the authority of Lord Kolbaugh, Mark harvested the grain in the land safely.
He used half of it to pay taxes, and took away half of the remaining half, and gave it to relatives as flowers for his children.Even so, the couple couldn't finish the remaining quarter.
In the end, the two combined together and left the seeds for one year chewing and the second season. After the second season potato stems were planted, Mark took all the remaining potato stems and set off from Abby Village all the way west, passing through Several cities came to Fabimon.
He knew that many big cities were not short of food, but the surrounding small towns or mountain villages were not only short of food, but also short of money.They have so many potato sticks left, there is no way to sell them around.
But he heard that in the orc country thousands of miles away, such food is very popular.And the orcs also have a lot of wealth, which can be exchanged for food.So he pushed all the belongings of their family.I sneaked all the way and rushed here along the path in the deep mountain jungle. Fortunately, I escaped the lords and bandits who exploited the passing merchants in most lands.
As long as he can pass through this wasteland and pass the last checkpoint, he can reach the orc Jiama Empire.Then when he came back from the Orc Empire, the fur he earned might allow him and his family to obtain the status of the Korbaff leader.At that time, nothing to worry about at home.As long as you farm well to support your family, you don't need to worry about the exploitation of the lord and the bad luck that may befall your head anytime and anywhere.
Someone had reminded him that if he wanted to cross this wasteland, it was best to find a caravan in Fabimon City and exchange a certain percentage of goods for the caravan's protection.But Fabimon City is now closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave, so he has lost such an opportunity.So he could only grit his teeth and plan to walk through this wasteland alone.
But when he really walked into this wasteland, he realized that maybe he was really too naive.
The Rabimo Wasteland is famous in Simena for its vastness, but also for its banditry.Almost all the caravans passing through this wasteland will not be robbed by bandits once. If they are lucky, they only spend some property. If they are unlucky, they will leave their lives in this wasteland leading to wealth.
Mark originally thought that he was alone, and that he might be able to sneak through the desert without attracting the attention of the bandits.But at this time, in less than half a day, he saw several caravans in the wilderness with violent corpses.He finally woke up from the arrogance of traveling through several cities alone, but he was not willing to turn back at this time.
In this weather, if the potato sticks cannot be sent to the orc country, they may never be eaten again.This is all the remaining harvest of their family. He is not sure whether the potato stalks planted in the second season will have a good harvest this time.
Think about the three children in the family. They have learned to write letters home within a few months after going to Korbaf.Although he couldn't read a single word, but holding that thin piece of expensive white paper and the immature handwriting on it made him laugh from ear to ear for many days.
Even for these three children, he must not back down.
Even if he can't become a citizen of Korbaff, the coins he earns this time can give the children better living conditions, so that they don't have to be in Korbav, and they don't have to be bullied by children born in wealthy families. discriminate.
Thinking of this, Mark was full of strength again.
So he ignored the scorching sun above his head, and the caravan corpses who were willing to take risks for money, but eventually died in the wilderness, embarked on this road with an unknown future like him under his feet.
Just as the sun was about to set, Mark couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.He always thought that even bandits probably work at sunrise and rest at sunset!
But how could bandits in the desert do business under the scorching sun?Anyway, people who pass through this wasteland will always spend a few days and nights here. Those are the leeks they have planted so hard.
So when Mark was considering whether he should find a place to rest, he suddenly heard the rapid sound of horseshoes.Mark's heart trembled, and he hurriedly pushed the wheelbarrow, trying to find a place to hide.But in this wasteland, how can it be so easy to find a place?
The sound of horseshoes was getting closer, and Mark's face turned pale.It is impossible for such a rapid sound of horseshoes to be made by a caravan carrying goods.
Mark was trembling with fright, his footsteps were anxious and messy, and finally he pushed the wheelbarrow unsteadily and overturned to the ground.His heart felt cold, and then he could only turn his head in despair, and saw the source of the horse's hooves.
It was a group of men wearing all kinds of brightly colored clothes. They ran forward fiercely holding knives, and some of the knives were even stained with drops of blood.
Mark was shaking his legs in despair, and couldn't help but knelt on the ground weakly, already saying goodbye to his wife and son in his heart.
But who knows that the other party didn't even look at him, a group of people just galloped past him.It wasn't until the figures of this group of people disappeared from Mark's sight that he turned his head and looked at the piles of potato stems on his wheelbarrow in a daze, unable to react.Is it because he has too few potato sticks and the other party doesn't like it?
It was only then that Mark remembered that those people seemed to have panicked expressions on their faces just now, as if they were being chased by someone.
Sure enough, a pair of people came towards Mark.Mark was a little calmer this time. He stood up on the wheelbarrow. After thinking for a while, he still stood still, thinking that if he ran, it would be easier to attract the other party's attention.
But who would have thought that when the second group of people saw him, they stopped with bright eyes and surrounded him, even ignoring those who were chasing before.
At this moment, Mark looked at the people around him in a little panic. These people were completely different from the group of people in colorful clothes in front of them. They were actually wearing standard armor, and even their heads and faces were tightly covered by helmets.
The flatterers were strong, and the riders were tall and strong, not at all like robbers that would appear in the wasteland.
But who are these people?
But what scares Mark the most is that this group of people is followed by the giant black beast.Their eyes were fixed on him fiercely, and the dripping saliva left in the open bloody mouth, as well as the sharp fangs protruding from the huge mouth, did not seem to be kind.
Mark looked at such a giant beast, and he couldn't even care about the deterrence of the knights around him. What he was thinking about today was that he might have to confess here, not only his trunk, but even himself might become The other party's food is gone.
Just when he was so frightened that he wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy, the team of knights suddenly parted to the two sides, and a person in a white robe walked out from it.
A person wearing this style suddenly appeared in front of him, Mark was also slightly taken aback, and then the other person raised his hand slightly, revealing a slender white hand under the wide sleeve.Under the reflection of the sun, the white and tender skin even looked a little transparent.At first glance, it is the skin that only noble girls have.
Those hands gently lifted the hood of the white cloak, and then revealed a soft and gentle face.
Under the scorching hot sun of the wasteland, the girl's blond hair shone a little bit of broken light, and her green eyes were like a lake of clear springs. Mark felt a slight coolness around him, making people feel a little more comfortable.
He couldn't help but want to rub his eyes, wondering if he was hallucinating from being frightened.The person in front of him shone so brightly that it hardly seemed like he should appear in his world.
"Hello," the girl said to him softly, "Do you want to cross this wasteland?"
