Chapter 190 Manor Connection
Chapter 190 Manor Connection
The plot is heating up: Update! Come and check it out!
Farol's words were almost a plea.
This piqued Li Mosi's curiosity.
Although he discovered the anomaly in the two surrounding territories, it was clear that Knight Valos had searched these two territories when he led his men to escape.
But since Farol stayed here, he obviously had little to do with this matter.
Besides, he was just the butler's assistant.
They are essentially still leaders.
Given the Varos family's control over their people, they shouldn't have given him the opportunity to run around.
"You'll help me? What can you do for me?"
Ziyi, Zian, and Haji Sei, who were holding the strip of cloth, also looked over.
Farol also guessed some of Li Moss's thoughts.
"Sir, I am merely the steward's assistant. But I was a blacksmith in my youth."
"Before the current generation of Valos Knights inherited the territory, the manor did not have such strict control over us. Back then, we and the people from the nearby manors would exchange some necessities in the woods on Sundays."
"My craftsmanship is better than that of the blacksmiths in both manors, who occasionally ask me to make tools or ironwork for them. The villagers also sometimes ask me to repair their tools."
"I know a lot of them."
Li Mosi nodded.
Farol is even more influential than he thought.
They've also mastered the art of craftsmanship.
Such small-scale transactions between neighboring manors also existed in the original owner's memories.
After all, Sunday is not only the only opportunity to rest during the week, but also a great time for socializing.
However, in the territory of Baron Talis, these craftsmen often made verbal agreements after leaving the church on the previous Sunday, and delivered the goods when they gathered the following Sunday.
Ordinary citizens and slaves were not entitled to attend services at the church in Talis Town.
Although the original owner had never seen them, she had heard that they would gather in their territory to worship and then exchange some necessities.
As for the specifics, the original owner didn't care much.
Just like how the original owner didn't care about starting a family.
To be fair, the original owner's craftsmanship was quite good among the artisans in Baron Talis's territory.
Hunters would ask him to adjust their bows, and soldiers, craftsmen, or wealthier villagers would also ask him to make handicrafts.
Rather than being recognized, Hagi Saint should perhaps be thinking more about how his craftsman's face is legitimizing his claim to the Baron Taliss.
After all, Baron Talis's territory was not far to the south, so it was impossible for him not to want to fight.
I don't feel safe unless I hit him.
Not to mention that Baron Stern was killed by Baron Taliss himself.
Given Baron Talis's greed, it's impossible that he wouldn't plunder Baron Stern's house.
His attempt to seize Baron Stern's territory would inevitably lead to conflict with Baron Taliss.
Not to mention that the nobles' territories weren't connected by walls, but only by woodlands...
Farol's words brought Li Moss back to reality.
"Moreover, Sir Tufate died in battle recently, and he had no heir. The Valos family took over his manor."
"I accompanied the butler to take over the estate and got to know many people there."
Ziyi and Zian couldn't help but nod in agreement.
During their previous visits to various stores, they had already witnessed the effectiveness of Farol.
With his trusted and familiar face around, the people could indeed become more obedient to them.
"Alright, I grant you permission to come with me to take over the other two manors."
Li Mosi naturally had no reason to refuse.
"Then I'll have the old man lead the people here for you."
Farol smiled.
"Thank you, sir."
Li Mosi nodded casually and looked at the old man.
"Then you'll have to watch over the procession of the people."
The old man nodded.
"Yes, sir. I will do my best to protect them."
Li Mos casually handed a pile of strips of cloth to Farol.
"Have the shepherd mark the livestock with strips of cloth so they don't get mixed up."
Once everyone was seated and in position, they got to work.
Watching the stonemasons lead their men up the stone wall and begin prying up bricks from the top of the gate, Li Mosi urged the large group forward toward the western woodland.
On the way, he opened the [Leshan Water] map and took a look.
The people in the Tufate and Matica knightly territories were not acting any differently, continuing to graze their livestock in the woodlands of their respective estates in preparation for the winter.
The only difference is the location.
When I saw it yesterday, the people of the Valos Knights Territory were grazing their livestock in the woodland on the west side, and the people of the other two Knights Territories were also in the woodland on the west side of their respective territories.
But before their group even got there today, there were already dozens of people in the woods to the west.
This group of people was very concentrated, mostly clustered on the western edge.
On the contrary, fewer than fifty people remained in the woodlands on the western side of the Matica Knights' Territory.
Good guy.
Did they come here to graze their livestock?
Let's take this group of people in first.
Li Mosi turned off the map and looked at Zi Yi and Farol beside her.
"A group of men from the Matica Knights have wandered into the woods to your west. We'll surround them in a bit..."
"A group of men from the Matica Knights have wandered into the woods to your west. We'll surround them in a bit..."
……
"Is it really okay to do this?"
Bazk, who had just turned seven last month, frowned as he looked at the woodland in front of him.
This woodland was no different from any other woodland he knew, full of shrubs and low oak trees.
The only problem is that this woodland is to the east of their territory.
This is woodland belonging to the Valos family!
Upon hearing his words, the people who had been walking forward froze in place.
They turned to look at each other, somewhat hesitant.
Ahead of him, a girl three years older than him turned around and spoke angrily.
"What problem could there be? Our woodland isn't very big to begin with, and those soldiers even stole the acorns we collected! If we don't fatten up our pigs, we won't be able to survive the winter!"
Bazk stared blankly at the girl in front of him.
The carpenter's second daughter is still so easily excitable.
Seeing that he didn't move, the girl walked back and took Bazk's hand.
"We don't know when the Valos family will return, and we need to prepare for winter first. Besides, with so many people here, what problems could there be?"
The girl shouted as she moved closer to him, then spoke softly.
"My surname is carpenter, and yours is blacksmith. Even if we're discovered, nothing will happen."
"Go to hell, you bunch of idiots!"
"Keep moving forward!"
Seeing the others begin driving their livestock into the woods, Bazk nodded somewhat reluctantly.
"You make a good point."
"Let's go then!"
The girl pulled him forward.
Bazk finally took a step forward.
This step crossed the edge of the manor and entered the woodland of the Valos Knights' manor, a place he had been warned never to enter since childhood.
rustling sounds...
Suddenly, a series of rapid footsteps approached from afar, startling all the citizens.
"Stand still!"
"Hands up! Drop your weapons!"
"Wow! It's another human!"
"Surround them!"
Accompanied by a language they could understand and a squeaking sound they couldn't comprehend, the short, green goblins surrounded them!
Several villagers holding wooden sticks instinctively raised their sticks and loudly reminded their companions.
"Goblin!"
Goblin!
Upon hearing this word, Bazk turned around to inform the others.
But a group of people emerged from the side of his field of vision, blocking his escape route!
Yes, this is a group of humans.
A group of humans wielding spears!
Where did these goblins come from?
As Li Mosi and his group came out, he finally saw the goblin.
But he looked at Farol first.
"Grandpa Farol?"
Farol's face still works perfectly.
Only halfway through the afternoon, Li Mosi had successfully taken over three territories.
Thanks to the efforts of the people, the western end of the main road of the Valos Knights Territory and the eastern end of the main road of the Matica Knights Territory are about to be connected, and a section of the stone wall has been torn down from the gate.
