Lord of Riding and Slashing

When the servants were gathered in the open space in front of the main building by the soldiers, everyone felt very panic in their hearts, but the life under the Krissen family for many years had smoothed their edges and corners, and they had learned to be submissive, There is no sense of resistance at all.

Since Nord captured the castle, no matter what work Nord ordered them to do, these servants have done it very hard, for fear that Nord will take his anger on them, even more attentively than before under Viscount Ollie, because they have already They understand Viscount Ollie's temper, but they still don't know anything about Nord, the new lord.

The unknown will make people more frightened. Although Viscount Ollie has a very violent temper, as servants, they all know very well that as long as Viscount Ollie is not out of trouble when he is furious, basically there will be no trouble. There is great danger, but they don't know what kind of temper this Viscount Nord has.

This time they were called to the open space. They didn't know what they were here for. There were two middle-aged men standing in front of the main building commenting on them. Some clever servants had guessed it. The next step was to decide their fate. It's just that they don't know what their future destiny is.

Steward Abel saw that more than a hundred servants were almost gathered, so he stretched out his hand and motioned for Scholar Hill to go to the front of the crowd with him. Scholar Hill shook his head and declined, not intending to presumptuously, and he let Steward Abel Walk in front and follow behind.

People respect me one foot, and I respect others ten feet. Both Butler Abel and Scholar Hill are good people, and they are very experienced in human affairs. They are not purebred whites like Nord, so they act very prudently. , will take into account the feelings of the other party, will not go beyond.

Steward Abel walked in front of these servants, and didn't speak directly. Instead, he glanced at the frightened servants and took a panoramic view of their performance.

Almost all the servants are in a state of panic, but there are still a few people in the crowd who are staring at Steward Abel. They may have guessed the identity of Steward Abel, hoping to know their future fate from him , Abel silently recorded these people in his heart, or he could focus on these people in the future.

"I am the steward of Viscount Nord, the lord of this castle. You can call me Abel. The reason for calling you out this time is very simple, that is, the castle does not need so many servants now, which means that most of you Everyone has to leave the castle."

After Steward Abel finished announcing the news, the scene became very silent. The servants' eyes were very dazed. The things they had feared before had become reality, and they could not accept this reality in their hearts.

But they didn't have the guts to resist the decision from the nobles, they could only be at a loss thinking about how to plan for the future, where is their place to live and work.

But they do not have the ability to arrange their own future, otherwise they would not be servants to Viscount Ollie, and of course it is not ruled out that some people are not willing to be servants, but what is certain now is that after leaving the castle, their The situation will definitely not be easy, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a narrow escape.

Steward Abel had expected the reaction of the servants. Abel was quite satisfied with their performance. A servant who obeyed orders was a good servant. Those who caused trouble had probably been dealt with by Viscount Ollie long ago.

The nobles' castles seem to have no worries about food and clothing, but in fact there are hidden murderous intentions. If you are not careful, you may die, especially when you encounter a grumpy noble. It is common for them to kill one or two servants.

But the rest of the servants were well trained by Viscount Orly's steward. At least for Steward Abel, these servants are already qualified. Steward Abel would also like to thank the Krissen family for their training, otherwise there would be so many ready-made servants , Butler Abel doesn’t know how long it will take to train.

"Are any of you willing to leave? I can decide to give you freedom and let you leave the castle without incident. The contract you signed with the castle before will also be cancelled. You will be free citizens in the future. Think carefully about it. If you choose to continue Stay, then wait for the arrangement honestly, you should think about it clearly."

But the answer to Butler Abel was still silent. Seeing this situation, Butler Abel smiled instead. No matter what the reason was, since they stayed, it was a good thing for Butler Abel. Of course he would be happy.

Although there is no slavery in this world, it is inevitable for these nobles to play other tricks. For example, the contract signed with the servant is like this. Servants are used as slaves.

But fortunately, the empire at that time was so powerful that it was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even now that it has perished, people dare not go beyond certain systems, even if they take advantage of loopholes like this first, they dare not be too blatant, so these servants are still much better than slaves.

"Since none of you are willing to leave, I will announce Lord Nord's order. Lord Nord is a kind and benevolent lord. He doesn't want to see you displaced after leaving the castle, so he arranged jobs for you."

Having said that, Steward Abel paused for a moment. He did not want to catch the appetite of these servants, but to grandly introduce the Scholars Hill behind them, and it would be more convenient for Scholars Hill to choose servants. The Hill Scholars were invited to the front.

"This is a knowledgeable Hill scholar. Next, he will serve as the administrator of Fort Isaac and assist in the government affairs of all the territories of Fort Isaac."

Steward Abel smiled at Scholar Hill, signaling that he could start selecting servants.

Scholar Hill walked to the front of the crowd calmly, his eyes were full of wisdom, and he looked at the servants around him with an extraordinary demeanor and a calm expression, which made people feel good about him.

"Just like what steward Abel introduced just now, my name is Hill, I'm a scholar, and I'm going to be an administrator soon, but I haven't been an administrator before, and I'm not familiar with this place. Some of you choose to come out on your own initiative help me?"

At this time, the servants began to commotion. Looking at the Hill scholar in front of them and hearing his request, many servants felt a little moved in their hearts. Dare to stand out, so no one dares to stand up.

Facing the commotion in the crowd, Scholar Hill and Steward Abel looked at each other and smiled. Both of them could understand the worries in the hearts of these servants, so Scholar Hill shook his head and smiled wryly. Looking at their appearance, there might be no results for a while. , Scholars Hill had to choose a different way to select candidates.

"Then let me ask another question. Anyone who worked in the market outside the castle before, or who has a better understanding of the outside situation, can take the initiative to stand up. If you miss this opportunity, there will be no next time. Then I will It might be chosen randomly, so don’t regret it.”

Before Scholar Hill finished speaking, a well-dressed servant came out from the crowd.
