The Extraordinary Earl

Pompeii collar.

This is a small knight's territory in the countryside that is very remote and basically no one cares about. The permanent population includes serfs and civilians of almost 2,000.

Especially in this territory, the lord Old Sol basically doesn't care about anything. Therefore, Luther and Pompeo are the biggest bosses.

The fashionable saying is, BOSS.

Therefore, whatever Luther wanted to do, no matter how absurd it was, he could still accomplish it. The next day, the first mayor of Pompeii, Lelouch and Bonaparte, took office.

Because it would take some time to build a city hall, Luther first decided to choose an open space near the castle and summoned the craftsmen in the castle to prepare a city hall.

Luther's ambition is not small, just look at it. Pompeii will definitely become a real city in the future. Therefore, Luther was also very concerned about the construction of the city hall.

The plan was to build a two-story villa to house the city hall.

However, the city hall cannot be built in a short time, so Luther temporarily chose a room in the castle as the temporary office of the city hall.

During this process, Lelouch first recruited four assistants who knew Chinese characters. Although Pompeii is in the countryside and not many people know how to read, it can still be done with four people as assistants.

As for the ten guards responsible for guarding and running errands, it is better to say.

Luther transferred Bove's group of guards to the town hall.

Then it was time to start construction work, repairing roads, cleaning up excrement, and fertilizing the fields.

Inside the castle, the temporary residence of the town hall.

This room used to be empty, and there were five temporary tables, chairs, and some writing tools. It couldn't be more shabby.

Four assistants were dispatched, and they were responsible for summoning the chiefs of each village to come to the castle to discuss matters. So there were only two people left in the room, Lelouch and Luther.

The weather in the south has always been hot. Although it is still early spring, summer seems to have come quietly, and the weather is a bit sultry.

So the windows in the room were open.

Lelouch was leaning against the window, with one button on his upper shirt undone, and his image was somewhat casual.

Luther also sat casually on a chair, facing Lelouch.

"It is very simple to repair roads and clean up excrement. But building toilets in each house, fermenting excrement, and fertilizing the fields is something that farmers have never done for their ancestors. They will definitely be confused and resisted. But we have The advantage is that the Pompeii family still has a lot of weight in this territory. No matter how confused the village chiefs are, you just insist on doing this. You have to come forward in this matter. My words have no weight.”

Lelouch explained.

"good."

Luther nodded, indicating that he understood.

To put it simply, it is a fox pretending to be a tiger.

Ha ha.

The Pompeii collar is not too small, but not too big. Now is not the busy time for farming, and the village chiefs are also idle, so soon the village chiefs hurried to the castle.

There were about 1,300 civilians in Pompeii territory, divided into ten villages. Each village has about 130 people, or a dozen households.

The person who can be selected as a village leader must certainly have some ability and knowledge.

But they were still ordinary civilians. Usually, these village chiefs could only look at Pompeii Castle from a distance and never entered the castle at all.

He was suddenly summoned again. At this moment, he was naturally uneasy.

"Master Luther has just been promoted to junior knight, and a carnival has just been held in the territory. It is said to be a carnival, but in fact it is just that the Pompeii family distributed some food. Now Master Luther has summoned us, what is this?"

Everyone is very cramped.

"Hello. I am Lelouch, Bonaparte, and this is the heir to the Pompeii family, Master Luther. Some of you know me, some don't. But it doesn't matter. Today I am announcing something. Things. I have become the acting lord of the Pompeii family, and you can call me Mr. Mayor on behalf of the Pompeii family. The next thing I want to do is to repair the roads near your village. , one thing is to clean up the feces on the roadside and dump it into the fields for fertilization. By the way, you have to build a toilet first.”

Lelouch was originally leaning against the wall near the window, but at this moment he was sitting in the seat belonging to the Mayor of Pompeii and spoke in a very serious tone.

Luther sat on another chair and tilted his head to look at Lelouch. This senior must have experienced a lot when he returned from working outside for three years.

Maybe he has worked in the official department and is very aura.

The ten village chiefs were a little commotion and more confused.

Well, building roads and stuff makes sense, it's even good news.

Because the roads in the territory are so difficult to walk, the people are miserable. The lords organized them to build roads, and they approved of it with both hands.

And according to custom, the lord should give them rations.

It can not only fill the stomach, but also build a good road.

This is the time to shout "Lord, please have mercy."

But what the hell is dumping poop into a field? Can the wheat grown be eaten? How disgusting. Will it breed pests?

At this time, a village chief stood up.

This is a man in his fifties. The farmers all look older. This man is probably only in his early forties. The appearance is very ordinary, and the body shape is also very ordinary.

He glanced at Luther with some restraint, and then looked at Lelouch again, his eyes were different. The look in Lelouch's eyes showed suspicion.

It was still necessary for Lelouch to pull the Pompeii family's tiger skin.

People may not give Lelouch face, but they must not disrespect Luther and Pompeii.

"May I ask, Mr. Mayor, why do you dump feces into the field?" The village chief looked at Lelouch with suspicion.

Lelouch shrugged, he knew this would be the case.

At this time, Master Luther appeared on the stage. Luther coughed slightly and said, "Ahem, what is the commander number of you?"

"Back to Master Luther, I am the seventh camp commander." The camp commander instantly became restrained, his back bent subconsciously, and he replied in a low voice.

There is also some fear.

"Don't be too nervous." Luther waved his hand and said, but the effect was not very good. The captain was still very restrained. Luther had no choice but to ignore the question and said directly: "I read in a book that pouring manure into the field will make the wheat grow stronger and increase the harvest. For the sake of the territory's harvest next year, I order you to do it. Can you build a toilet outside the house and dump the excrement into the field?"

At the end of the sentence, Luther crossed his hands on the desk, leaned forward slightly, his eyes were very sharp, and his tone was slightly stern.

He showed off the aura of a tiger.

"yes."

Commander No. 7 and the other nine commanders seemed to have been struck by lightning. They thought for a moment and then spoke in unison.

Pompeii's words are supreme in this Pompeii territory.

This is tiger.

And with Luther's order, these people will no longer be sneaky. The effects will come out in the fall.

Luther can already see that this year's taxes will definitely be high.

So happy.

Let's do it in full swing.
