Your Majesty, the Spectacle Has Missed the Country!

Chapter 19 Return (asking for investment!)

The journey back to Idar City was not bumpy. It only took half a day to reach Idar City in sight.

Bruno and Old Ford rode ahead with a few followers, while the serfs followed slowly behind under the leadership of the remaining guards.

"Lord Bruno, are you serious about releasing serfs as free people?" Old Ford suddenly asked on the way back to Idar City.

"That's what I think, and I do plan to do it. Is there any problem?" Bruno said.

"It was a rare thing to release serfs as free people, let alone such a large-scale release," said Old Ford.

"It's not like they were all released. The more than 300 serfs only released 45 freedmen. Besides...didn't we tell them to wait until the hanging garden was built before releasing them?" Bruno asked rhetorically.

"But if this precedent is set, then if Idar Territory builds such a project in the future... wouldn't it mean that a group of serfs would have to be released?"

Old Ford had a lot to think about. After all... his master was really a man who was unwilling to remain calm and was thinking about things all day long. Today he planned to build a garden, but he might have a headache and plan to build a fortress tomorrow...

Such ideas must be nipped in the bud...

"Then let it go. There are so many serfs anyway, so it's not bad to just have a few." Bruno said rather nonchalantly.

"Master, it costs money to buy serfs..." Old Ford persuaded him earnestly.

"Didn't you just say that the profits from salt production can double several times this year? When you have money, you have to spend it. How much money do you need to buy a serf? You can't just hide it in the cellar as soon as you have money, right?"

After hearing this, Old Ford was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. If it weren't for Mr. Bruno, your father and grandfather had saved a lot of money through generations of management, the Stuart family's wealth might have been lost to you long ago. I have been completely defeated. What should I do if there is another prodigal son like you in the future... Of course, I can't say it so bluntly, so Old Ford advised: "Master, money is not such a waste." The law...if you have money, you should spend it wisely..."

"This is on the edge of the knife." Bruno finally said seriously: "Think about it, from a serf to a free citizen, even you think it is incredible, so it must be even more so for those serfs. In this case , how could they not work hard with all their heart? Maybe stimulated by this promise, the progress of the project will be doubled... plus there are daily evaluations, just wait, Old Ford...the construction of the sky garden may go much smoother than we expected..."

"If they really want to become free people...what you said is not impossible..."

"Although serfs have a low status, they are not stupid. What's more, you and I are all aware of the tricks here. A large number of serfs were innocent civilians before being sold to Idar. How could they be willing to become nobles for generations? Where are the serfs?"

"Besides..." Bruno paused and continued: "Even if some serfs are really so stupid, the fish and white bread they eat every day are real things. Furthermore, there are dozens of people in a production team, even if There are a few people who want to cheat and cheat, but they will be punished by most people for holding back the production team... What's more, the value of the surplus labor created by the serfs under such stimulation will definitely be far greater. To the value of the means of survival we provide them..."

"It seems...it does make sense..." Old Ford thought thoughtfully.

"Think about it! Old Ford, nothing in this world is static... Maybe, when there are more and more free people in the territory, Idar will become better..." Bruno smiled. said.

…

Soon, a group of people rode horses and arrived at the gate of Idar City.

As soon as we entered the city, the smell of Sabi hit us.

"Master, you are finally back. I miss you so much..." Shabi came over with a shy face and a mean smile.

Bruno suddenly discovered that after not seeing each other for a few days, this guy Shabi... seemed to have become a little bit wretched...

"Oh! Sabi..." Bruno looked at him intently, "How did you do with the task assigned to you..."

As soon as he heard this, Shabi suddenly frowned: "As far as I can tell you, the collection of feces went smoothly...but..."

"Just what..." Bruno asked.

"It's just that there are some bad rumors in the city... they say... they say that the villain was disliked by the master, and then... then he went crazy, so he started collecting feces everywhere..." Shabi added these Tianli briefly talked about the rumors in Idar City.

When Bruno heard this, he immediately became happy. ,

Isn't this just gossip from another world?

Unexpectedly, there are so many melon-eating people in another world.

It's just that... the public opinion trend in this other world doesn't seem to be very friendly to Shabi...

Bruno patted Shabi on the shoulder and comforted UU Reading www.uukanshu.net: "Okay, okay, when the feces you collected come in use in a few days, these rumors will naturally be disproven... …”

Several people were walking towards the city while talking...

Not to mention, Shabi is really a decent shit shoveler. In just a few days, the frightening smell in Idar City has been reduced a lot.

Even the piles of excrement could no longer be seen on the roadside, and the entire city of Idar suddenly became much cleaner. Although it was still a bit reluctant in Bruno's opinion, it was much better than at the beginning.

"Well done, I'll go to the castle to collect the reward later." Bruno said casually in a good mood.

"Thank you, sir!" Shabi said gratefully.

"By the way, in the past few days since I left, has anything new happened in Idar City?"

"There's something new... there is, it's about Mr. Anel." Shabi recalled for a moment and said.

"Who is Anel...?"

"..."

"As far as I can tell you, his full name is Arnel Blood. He is the guy who stole your white bread. He claims to be the son of the Duke of Loon and a disciple of the Archmage Glen Galvin."

"Oh! It's him!" Bruno suddenly realized.

It’s not that Bruno has a bad memory, but because although Bruno inherited the memory of his original body, the words in this world are very different from the words on earth in terms of word order, word formation and writing. In a short period of time, Bruno It’s really hard to get used to it, let alone remember some random names.

"What happened to him?"

"He...he set your stable on fire, using the fireball technique...and also burned a bullock cart..."
