Chapter 253 The Transformation of Serfs
Barton had never been so excited.
Now, I will give you a chance to get out of slavery, as long as you can get enough merit.
This sentence has been lingering in his mind for a while, and today it has all become a reality.
After successfully turning in the wheat he planted, he successfully obtained the merit points needed for promotion.
Originally, he thought that he would have to wait for a while to get the news, but the officials in charge of management actually helped him get out of slavery on the spot.
Seeing his name crossed out on the slave registration with his own eyes, tears burst out of his eyes, and the seven-foot man cried profusely.
What it meant to be a freeman, he knew very well.
This means that they are no longer slaves of their masters, no longer subject to abuse by their masters, no longer forced to farm endlessly, and can freely control everything of their own!
They were born serfs and lived at the bottom of the world. Normal people cannot experience the pain of a serf.
And in the future, whether it is living, working or other things, they can live according to their own will, and their children will no longer be serfs from the day of birth!
"Finally, finally, I am no longer a serf."
"Father, mother, you must be very happy, your son is no longer a serf!"
Kneeling down on the ground, Barton's low growl attracted countless passers-by to watch. There was no ridicule, and there was only emotion in their eyes at this moment.
"Congratulations, Barton, from now on you will be a free citizen of the territory." Darby came over and helped Barton up.
"Well, thank you Lord Darby, I will definitely cherish the free citizen status I finally obtained."
"From now on, I will be a subject of Lord Aiwen. For Lord Aiwen, I will definitely work harder and dedicate everything to the territory!"
Patton wiped the tears off his face fiercely, and told the Minister of Agriculture in front of him the promise he would keep in his life!
Darby nodded with a smile, "This is our common home. Under the leadership of Master Aiwen, everyone's life will definitely be better."
On the way back to the village, Barton didn't know how he got back, but when his figure appeared at the entrance of the village, he immediately saw a large number of serfs coming over.
"Button, what's the matter?"
"Successful, have you succeeded?"
The serfs' faces were full of uneasiness and tension. Even with the promise of the lord, they can only relax when this day actually comes.
Seeing this, the image of his name crossed out on the slave registration appeared in Barton's mind again. He took a deep breath and nodded very vigorously, "I am a free citizen now."
In an instant, the field fell into silence, and in the next moment, bursts of cheers suddenly came from the mouths of the serfs.
They cheered loudly and celebrated crazily. Tears kept flowing from their eyes, tears mixed with smiles, and everyone looked crazy!
"I didn't expect that before winter came, we would be able to get out of slavery."
"Originally, I thought it would take at least a year, or even two or three years, to complete."
"If that's the case, all of us here will be able to get out of slavery!"
An old serf wiped the tears and snot from his face, and looked at the golden wheat grains drying in the open space in the distance.
In order to be able to get out of slavery as soon as possible, they worked desperately to open up wasteland and sow seeds during this time.
Originally, they were all prepared to wait at least a year, but this year's bumper harvest really surprised everyone.
It took only two months for the wheat to mature, and the harvest was far more than ever, all of which were brought by Mr. Aiwen!
Perhaps when this plan was formulated, Master Aiwen really wanted to get all of their serfs out of slavery, right?
"Long live Mr. Aiwen, long live Mr. Aiwen!" The next moment, someone shouted, and the waves of cheers resounded in the open field.
After the warm celebration, Barton calmed down a little and walked towards his home.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw two figures poking his head, they were the walking grass and the big-toothed civet.
After seeing him come back, the two little guys ran out of the room excitedly, threw themselves into his arms, and rubbed the back of his hands happily.
"Walking grass, Big Tooth Fox, I'm back!" Barton embraced the two elves.
Afterwards, he returned to the house with the two elves in his arms, and then carefully took out a cloth bag from his backpack.
Open the cloth bag carefully, and you can see that there are a lot of dark brown grainy food in it, which is exactly the food of elves!
On the way back, Barton saw in a trance that someone was feeding his elves with these elf food.
Seeing the walking grass happily eating elf food, he immediately thought of the walking grass and the big-toothed raccoon.
The two of them must also like it. They have helped me so much during this time, and I must thank them well. At that time, Barton had only this idea in his mind.
So even though elf food was really expensive, he still bought a pack of elf food without hesitation.
Nainai ~ squeak squeak ~
The walking grass and the big-toothed civet sniffed carefully, and their eyes lit up.
They can smell a very attractive aroma from the elf food in front of them.
However, they didn't eat the spiritual food right away, but looked at Barton and asked if they could really eat it?
Seeing this scene, Barton felt sour. He squatted down and stroked the walking grass and the big-toothed raccoon, "I'm sorry for making you suffer with me."
"In the future, I will definitely let you live a better life." Barton's eyes showed firmness, "From now on, I will let you eat elf food every meal in the future!"
Nainai ~ squeak squeak ~
Walking Grass and Big Tooth Beaver looked at each other, nodded cheerfully, and began to eat the elf food in front of them.
Kacha Kacha Kacha~
The sound of chewing continued, and the two little guys ate very happily.
"That's great, life will definitely become better and better in the future." Barton remembered expectantly.
boom boom boom~
At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the wooden house.
"Barton, are you home?" Button's familiar voice came to mind at the door.
He recognized the voice as the person in charge, and hurried over to open the door.
Although this steward was dedicated to managing these serfs, he was really kind to them, so he was very respected in the village.
"Master Huo Sen." After Barton opened the door, he hurriedly greeted him.
"You don't need to be too polite, and congratulations on being promoted to a free citizen."
After hearing the steward's words, Barton quickly expressed his thanks, and welcomed the steward into his home at a loss.
"What are your plans for the future?" The steward entered the room, his gaze fell on the elf who was eating elf food on the table.
Now Barton has been promoted to freeman, and the land originally allocated to him will be taken back.
In the future, if Barton wants to continue farming, he will have to take a lease to be able to move the farmland.
At that time, the territory will harvest the food they grow at a uniform price after collecting a certain percentage of taxes.
Of course, they can also find other livelihoods. Now that they are free citizens, they can enjoy the same treatment as ordinary civilians.
"The next plan?" Barton was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "I want to open a grilled fish shop in the village."
He had already decided on this idea a long time ago, and he was very confident in his grilled fish skills that Master Aiwen had praised!
"Grilled fish shop? This is indeed a good choice."
"But it's not that simple to open a grilled fish shop." The steward hesitated.
Barton's face changed slightly when he heard that. As a serf, he had only grown wheat, but he really had no experience in opening a shop.
Even if his grilled fish tastes really good, he needs to consider where the fish comes from, how to rent the shop, and what to do when the business is not good.
Thinking about it, Barton's face showed decadence. As a serf, he had no relevant education at all, which made his face look decadent.
"If you are not ready, I suggest you join the village patrol first."
"As long as you can become a patrol member, you can directly get a house in Pure White Town, and you can also get a good salary every month."
Seeing Barton's confused look, the steward thought for a while and said his suggestion.
He looked at the walking grass and the big-toothed raccoon in the house, feeling a little emotional in his heart, especially the big-toothed raccoon.
Although Master Aiwen subdued a group of big-tailed raccoons, there is a lake in the elf breeding area dedicated to the life of big-tailed raccoons.
But the number of trainers who can really be recognized by big-tailed raccoons and big-toothed raccoons is very small. These big-tailed and big-toothed raccoons live in groups, and few of them are willing to leave the group.
Therefore, relying on this big-toothed raccoon, he felt that the possibility of Barton successfully joining the patrol was still very high.
As long as he joins the patrol team, Barton can better integrate into the territory, and at the same time, his life will be guaranteed. He is very optimistic about this.
"Join the patrol!" Barton was obviously taken aback.
After a while, he hesitated and said, "My lord, can I really join the patrol team?"
"Of course, you are now a free citizen of the elf land, so you are naturally eligible to join the patrol team!"
"But... But, I was a serf before, even if I am like this, can I join the patrol?"
Button was still a little hesitant. Although he had become a freeman, he was still a little worried about his past.
In fact, according to his understanding, when the other serfs talked about what to do next, they were all a little confused.
After hesitating for a long time, they decided to continue living here as a farmer. They saw that this way they would not have to contact those civilians.
"Barton, remember my words."
"Elf leaders don't care about their origins, we are all Lord Aiwen's subjects!"
"In addition, you may not know that our Lord Aiwen was an ordinary civilian before he became the Earl of the Border."
"Lord Darby was a fruit farmer before he became the Minister of Agriculture, and Lord Jorah and Lord Mader were disabled knights who were forced to leave the knight order."
"Barton, the elves don't care about their origins. As long as you have the ability, you can start as an apprentice trainer, gradually become a patrol member, and finally become a knight!"
The steward looked at the former serf in front of him very seriously, but at this time Barton was completely stunned, and his vision gradually became blurred.
"Trust me, Barton."
"No one will care about your past, what we want to seize is the present."
"Oh, by the way, these are the original words of Mr. Aiwen. I can't say such great words."
This time, Barton nodded very vigorously, "Thank you, my lord, I have decided, I want to be a patrol member!"
The next day, Barton left the village with the walking grass and the big-toothed raccoon.
Without looking back, he waved his hand and bid farewell to his companions behind him. Now he has to take a step ahead, and you all have to catch up as soon as possible!
Walking quickly on the country road, a team of patrol members advanced in the distance, patrolling the territory.
Barton looked over and found that these patrol members were accompanied by a stinky flower, which is the evolution form of the walking grass!
"Walking grass, one day you will definitely be able to evolve into a stinky flower, and then we will patrol Lord Aiwen's territory just like them."
"There is also the big-toothed raccoon. I heard that your evolution form is a tall and tall big-tailed raccoon. Maybe one day, I will ride you and charge like a real knight!"
His face showed longing, "Finally, we will go back to Chengguo Village and open our own grilled fish shop!"
Hearing the master's lofty goal, the walking grass and the big tooth beaver nodded heavily, followed closely by their master, and walked in the direction of Chengguo Village.
After entering Chengguo Village, you can clearly see many civilians walking on the streets with walking grass.
Elves like walking grass are really easy to feed. Of course, this is the case if you don't plan to breed walking grass to have enough combat power.
Now the territory in the southeast corner has officially possessed the title of elf leader, and the civilians also feel that if they don't subdue an elf, they will be ashamed to say that they are the leaders of the elf leader!
"First go to the Elf Breeding House to register as a trainee trainer, and then go to the patrol team to sign up for the assessment." Barton recalled the account of the steward.
Taking the walking grass and the big-toothed raccoon quickly through the street, he soon came to the elf cultivation house, and many people could be seen in the house at this time.
"Phew, I'm sure I can do it!" Barton took a deep breath, but he was still a little worried.
Although the steward has said that Chengguo Village doesn't care about his background, when facing these ordinary people and even those wealthy families, he still feels a sense of inferiority in his heart.
"Trainer, hello, may I help you?"
While Barton was hesitating, a waiter in a white linen dress suddenly came over and asked softly.
The voice was very nice, Barton was stunned for a moment, looked at the girl in front of him, blushed, and hesitated, "I want to register as a trainer."
"Ah? Aren't you a trainer?" The waiter also showed surprise on his face, and his eyes fell on the walking grass and the big-toothed raccoon.
Especially the big-toothed raccoon, she has worked in the elf breeding house for so long, and it was the first time she saw someone bring the big-toothed raccoon here, subconsciously thought he was a trainer.
"I'm not yet, so I want to register as a trainer." Barton quickly added, bowing his head with a little inferiority.
Just now on the road, he had the feeling that everyone was a trainer, which made him feel inferior again when he was not yet a trainer. After successfully breaking away from the status of a serf, he felt that he was much more sensitive.
"So that's how it is. Please come with me. I think you will be able to become a trainer soon." The waiter smiled slightly and welcomed Barton in.
Soon, with the help of the waiter, Barton got the number plate. There were several civilians waiting to register as trainers in front of him, and they were all talking and laughing at this time.
"Ah, it's a big-toothed raccoon, really a big-toothed raccoon!"
"I didn't expect to see a big-toothed raccoon here. Whose elf is this?"
"It should belong to that person. He actually owns the walking grass and the big-toothed raccoon at the same time. He must be a very strong trainer!"
While waiting, Barton suddenly heard a few exclamations, and then saw a few teenagers in the distance suddenly showing envious expressions in order to come up.
"Hello, is this your big-toothed raccoon?"
"Yes, yes." Barton nodded blankly, not knowing why these people were so excited.
"It's too strong, it's really too strong to be able to subdue the big-toothed raccoon!"
"May I ask, how did you tame the big-toothed raccoon?"
"Although I have seen wild big-toothed civets in the elf breeding area, these elves are not willing to leave their group at all."
The young man exclaimed again, and then began to ask questions in a hurry, the envy on his face was not concealed at all.
"Big-toothed raccoon, I tamed it when I was opening up wasteland. It was at that time." Barton told the process of taming the big-toothed raccoon very honestly.
While speaking, he was suddenly taken aback, and found that he had also told about his past at the same time, his whole face suddenly changed.
"When opening up wasteland? Did you also participate in opening up wasteland?" The next moment, the boy deliberately mentioned it, which made his heart sink suddenly.
At this moment, he seemed to be able to see the strange gazes from the people around him, and the ridicule that followed must have made him want to run away immediately.
"It turns out that the wasteland outside the village was reclaimed by you." Barton's whole body began to tremble.
"Thank you so much. Without the wheat you planted, we would still be hungry!"
But the next moment, Barton was completely stunned, and looked at a commoner boy who spoke in front of him. The boy's eyes were clean and sparkling.
"I heard that there was a food shortage some time ago, and many people in other territories starved to death, but in Chengguo Village, not a single person died of starvation. This is all thanks to you!"
"Well, fortunately, the food shortage is finally over. This year is a bumper harvest year. We don't have to worry about the food problem this winter!"
Boys, you said without saying a word, and Barton felt that his eye sockets were a little moist again. Damn it, he had clearly sworn that after becoming a free citizen, he would be happy every day!
"Hmph, you brats are still talking about this!"
"Labor is the most glorious, but Master Aiwen often talks about it!"
At the same time, a trainer echoed and gave Barton a thumbs up at the same time.
"That's right, I came here from other territories with my father."
"If it wasn't for Lord Aiwen's shelter, if it wasn't for the pioneers who planted a lot of food before winter, we would have starved to death!"
A series of voices from trainers again connected serfs and pioneers. At this time, the cognition of these commoners was completely different.
At this moment, the values that Aiwen has been promoting in the territory have been greatly reflected.
Compared with other territories, the southeast border is really poor. Before Aiwen became the lord, it was a place that was often invaded by monsters.
And this has also created the unpretentious personality of the commoners here, not influenced by the concept of nobility, they do not reject serfs.
Even because of Aiwen's propaganda all the time, they have a great affection for serfs, and this famine and bumper harvest pushed this affection to a peak.
Now, even if Aiwen directly announced the abolition of the slave status of all serfs, everyone in the elf leader would not have the slightest opinion, and would even cheer enthusiastically.
"Thank you, thank you very much." Barton was extremely satisfied, and the trace of inferiority in his heart completely disappeared at this moment.
"No. 77, please come to the service desk."
At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the service desk, and it kept echoing in the room.
Barton spread out the note in his hand, and it happened to be number seventy-seven.
"It's my turn." Barton took a deep breath, and walked towards the service desk with the walking grass and the big-toothed raccoon.
Everything went very smoothly. Barton, who treats the walking grass and the big-toothed raccoon sincerely, was recognized by the two elves and successfully became a trainee trainer.
"Is your name Barton?"
"Walking Grass and Big Tooth Beaver really like you very much."
"Congratulations on becoming an apprentice trainer, and congratulations on joining the elf leader."
Just as Barton was relieved to have passed the trainer's assessment, a voice suddenly sounded in the room.
Button froze for a moment, turned around quickly, and said in surprise, "Lord Peter."
He is very familiar with Peter, even when he is opening up wasteland, he can often see the figure of the patrol captain.
"You're welcome. Sit down and talk." Peter waved his hand, "Actually, it's nothing, I just want to invite you to join the patrol."
Patton was stunned again. He felt that he had not had as many surprises in his life as today. Patrol Captain Peter personally invited him to join the patrol?
"Well, you don't have to doubt what you hear."
"No way, there are really too few trainers who can successfully tame the big-toothed raccoon."
"Now, the Darkshore Forest is about to lead directly to the sea. We need to cultivate a patrol team for patrolling the seaside."
"And I just received the news that a trainer has subdued the big-toothed raccoon, so I came here directly. I didn't expect it to be a lucky guy like you!"
Peter explained with a smile that the serf in front of him was indeed enviable. Even he, the patrol captain, had not been able to subdue a big-toothed raccoon so far.
"Lord Peter, can I really do it?" Barton was still in a daze at this moment, feeling that the surprise came too suddenly.
"Of course there is no problem. You tamed the big-toothed raccoon, so I invite you to join the patrol team. Is there any problem?" Peter continued with a smile.
After finishing speaking, Peter's expression suddenly became very serious, "Barton, the elf leaders don't care about their origins, we are all Lord Aiwen's subjects, everyone is the same!"
Barton felt like he was dreaming.
On the same day, he was promoted to Freeman and joined the Patrol.
Chengguo Village is really an incredible place. He has never seen a place where commoners can even have the opportunity to become knights.
As long as you can subdue an elf, even if it's just an ordinary walking grass, you can register as an apprentice trainer.
Then cultivate elves according to the method taught by the elf cultivation house, as long as they can pass the assessment of patrol members, they can become a patrol member.
This is a patrol member, and he can get a fixed salary every month. This is a position that all civilians dream of!
In other territories, only those with a good background can join the patrol team, and it is impossible for civilians to join in their entire lives!
But in Chengguo Village, the patrol members are actually composed of ordinary civilians, as long as they work hard, there is hope to join them.
Even he, who was born as a serf, could also join the patrol team and even go a step further to become a knight. This is no longer an unattainable fantasy.
Now, he can still imagine how excited the other companions will be when he brings the news of joining the patrol back to the village!
However, now is not the time to return to the village. He, who has just completed the trainer registration, is following Captain Peter to the trainer headquarters to register a new identity.
The trainer headquarters is located in the newly established Pure White Town.
They entered the town from the West District. I heard that this is a commercial district. If he wants to open a grilled fish shop, he can choose this place.
However, because the town has just been established, it has not been fully developed to the outside world. At this time, a large number of craftsmen are doing the final construction.
Passing through the West End, they soon entered the East End of the town.
"This is the trainer area of Pure White Town."
"The Trainer Headquarters is in the middle of the Eastern District, where the Knights, Patrols, and Rangers are located."
"However, since this place is still under construction, many follow-up facilities have not yet been fully established. At present, there are only three parts here: the trainer headquarters, the elf cultivation house, and the elf center."
Peter kept introducing the pure white town under construction to Barton, and he paid great attention to this trainer who grew up from a serf.
"The elf cultivation house is located next to the pure river. This will be the headquarters of the elf cultivation house, and the elf cultivation area is on the other side of the river."
Barton now has a good understanding of the elf cultivation house, and his eyes are a little hot. If he wants to become stronger in the future, he must rely on the elf cultivation house.
"As for the elf center, this is a place dedicated to healing elves."
"During the patrol, if your companions or elves are injured, you must send them to the elf center as soon as possible."
"You must firmly remember what I said, no matter at any time, as long as you are injured, go to the elf center as soon as possible, and maybe you can save your life because of it!"
While speaking, Peter was also very emotional. With the elf center, the people in the future will have a place where they can get quick treatment.
Speaking of which, since the establishment of the Elf Center, there have been no casualties in the territory for a long time, and I believe it will be the same this winter.
Seeing the captain's serious explanation, Barton nodded seriously, keeping this sentence firmly in his heart.
Moving forward quickly, they soon arrived at the trainer headquarters, and under Peter's leadership, they completed the identification of patrol members.
After getting the identity card belonging to the patrol member, Barton was really excited. He knew that starting today, his life would undergo earth-shaking changes!
On the top floor of the trainer headquarters, Aiwen leaned over the whole town.
In his eyes, this small town named after Pure White is exuding vitality.
With this as the center, trainers and elves will become active in this continent, and the elves alliance will truly step onto the stage of history.
"Master Aiwen, Barton has successfully joined the patrol." At this moment, Peter also boarded the top floor.
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
"Patton was the first serf to become a freeman, and he will be the representative of this new era."
Aiwen nodded. Serfs and nobles are products of the old era, and they will also be the biggest obstacle to alliance building.
For the nobles, the serfs themselves were part of their wealth, and the more serfs they had, the more value they could create.
But for the alliance, trainers are the cornerstone, and elves are the primary productive force. If the alliance wants to develop, it needs more free people to participate.
In the future, in his territory, the production method will definitely undergo earth-shaking changes. The harvest this time and the construction of Pure White Town are very good examples.
Therefore, he needs to comprehensively promote the abolition of the serf system, so that more serfs can be liberated from the labor force, become trainers, and join in the construction of the new era!
ps: Please ask for a monthly pass again, the 1000 monthly pass will be available soon, and I will send it in 2w words at that time.
