Swan strolled through the streets of Flower Town. The snow had stopped last night.
The road had been shoveled out of the snow, revealing the gravel road on the ground. Compared with the stone roads she had seen in big cities, this kind of gravel road was very simple. But for a small town, it was very bold to be able to lay a gravel road. No matter which country, most small towns had dirt roads.
The patrols, with a smile, maintained the order of the new serfs and began to distribute clothes.
The clothes were thick cotton-padded clothes, without cutting corners.
After a while, the serfs began to transport the prepared food to the residential area and provided it to the new serfs through the team organized by the town officials.
The food was plentiful. Although it was only beans and black bread, everyone was given a kind of shellfish.
She had inquired about it. It was seafood, a delicious food given to Lord Liszt by the sea. Last night, she tasted the seafood and found it tasted good. It was said that Flower Town relied on seafood to let everyone live a full life. From the color on the faces of the civilians, she knew it was true.
Compared with the dishes common to the serfs in the countryside, the serfs here had ruddy faces.
They wore thick cotton-padded clothes, smiled when working, and received a copper or two as a salary. It was hard to believe that such a life would appear in a small rural town.
Not long after, she had arrived at the wheat settlement.
Chickens crowed one after another in the settlement, and she could see the serfs taking out the leftover bread crumbs and some wheat bran to feed the big and small chickens.
She also passed a pig farm with more than a dozen fat pigs.
Everything showed that this was a rich town. Not only was the castle rich, the town rich, but even the village farm was rich.
"A very quiet village."
She suddenly remembered her hometown, also in a small town, a village farm like the wheat settlement, but more dilapidated. The local lord's taxes were too heavy and excessive, resulting in serfs not having enough to eat. Her family also did not have enough to eat. Her parents planned to marry her to a crippled old man in the village.
She was only fifteen years old at that time.
The crippled old man was in his fifties, his folds could catch flies, and he looked like he would die at any time.
After mustering up her courage, she ran away from home early the next morning. Just as she was about to leave the village, she happened to hear serfs working in the fields at the entrance of the village singing their hometown songs.
"My hometown is in this village. I was born and raised here. Don't be fooled by the size of this village …"
At that moment, her tears flowed freely, but she had no regrets.
Four years passed in the blink of an eye.
Too many things remained the same, but the people had changed.
When she finally had the ability to rewrite her own future, she heard that the Iron and Steel Ridge Kingdom was going to war with the Eagle Kingdom again, so she embarked on the journey back home, ready to pick up her family.
However, when he returned to his hometown, it was already a scene of devastation.
Her hometown had not been destroyed in the war. Instead, it had been slaughtered by a group of mercenaries. Her parents' corpses had already been eaten by wild dogs. However, she had also received a clue that her little sister was still alive. So she chased him all the way from the Kingdom of Eagle to the Grand Duchy of Sapphire.
He had finally found his sister in this remote village on the island.
"Good morning, Captain Swan." Suddenly, a stuttering greeting pulled Swan back to reality from her memories. She turned her head and saw that it was a little slave girl.
It seemed that on the ship, the little slave girl fell down, and she took her to get a meal. "It's you."
The little slave girl had changed into cotton-padded clothes. They were a little big, but they looked very warm. Her face had also been washed. Although there was still a trace of malnutrition, her spirit had recovered.
After the Serpentine greeting, she immediately changed to Wind Whisper, and her tone became lively. "Captain Swan, are you the lord of Flower Town?"
Swan then asked, "Do you like Flower Town?"
"Well, I like Flower Town. Mr. and Mrs. Brown are good people. I also met Onija, who, like me, is a serf who came by ship from another continent. She has been practicing qi with the Knight. Do you know qi? Ah, a big man like you must have practiced qi. "
"Female slaves can also practice qi?"
"Yes, Onija asked her instructor, Lord Romm. All girls can go to class. In a few days, I can also practice qi. Well, I want to be as powerful as Captain Swan. "
"Don't you want to go home?"
"Home?" A trace of confusion appeared on the little slave girl's face. She lowered her head and seemed to think of something. "But Lia has no home."
But soon, she raised her head again. "Mr. and Mrs. Brown said that Lia should make Flower Town her home."
Swan was stunned, then smiled and said, "Then make it home."
… …
Eating breakfast.
Liszt habitually called out the smoke mission.
Although he had to restrain his dependence on the smoke mission, the smoke mission was really useful. He couldn't help but think about the smoke mission every day.
If you can catch the tail of fate, you must try your best to pull it.
Keep the opportunity, don't waste it.
However, this time, the smoke mission has changed for a long time. The ethereal Serpentine is no longer the familiar words, but the Serpentine that only appeared once.
"The mission has changed."
Immediately, a new smoke mission was issued.
"Mission: In the snow-covered Flower Town, workers work and sweat every day, but they can't get enough hot water to wash. It is easy to catch a cold. The Lord should take this into account and build a bathhouse for men and women. Reward: a new variety of Flame Mushroom. "
The monkey hasn't been bought yet.
The mission was obviously not completed, but now it has changed.
Liszt recalled the mission of "The Diary of the Descendants of Philip Suns". He did not promote the contract between Phil and Jesse until now. But he searched Phil's leathersmith shop and got the diary that was supposed to be the reward in advance, and the mission changed immediately.
This time, it is likely that the same reason has led to the change of the mission.
"The smoke mission prompt says that the mission has changed, not that the mission has failed. Is the reward for my thief already in place?"
He thought of the possibility that Swan might already have someone in her heart.
But he felt that the progress was too fast. He was very confused about this mercenary who could make herself invisible. She must have value, and her invisibility alone is worth subduing. But there are also hidden threats. Killing aristocrats and unknown origins have violated his taboo.
So he was ready for a protracted war. He never expected that the other party would surrender so quickly.
It even made him sigh, "Alas, I thought it was a guardian boss, but I didn't expect it to be just a cutscene animation. Is it because you are flustered, or is my charm too high? "He picked up Mrs. Abby's new" invention "of steamed bread, smeared it with beef mince and mustard, and took a bite.
It's dry and hard.
It's not as soft as a real steamed bread, and it needs to be improved.
"Whether Swan has someone in her heart or not, the original plan should continue, and the investigation of her background should be accelerated … The construction of the two bathhouses must start immediately. I just designed the bathtub hot spring, and the smoke mission keeps pace with the times, letting me build the bathhouse."
