My Wife Is Great Fief Lord

Chapter 117 Serfs in action

When Gervais was testing the simple grenade, the serfs in the entire Storm Territory were also in action, whether it was the villagers of the three villages or the townspeople of Binhai Town, today today It was already out before it was light, everyone was carrying a huge basket, and all the men, women and children were dispatched.

These serfs didn’t run to the fields, but all got into some dense woods, looking for wild fruits that only children paid attention to before, when some serfs found There were already people in the nearby woods, and they rushed to the next woods without stopping. Their silhouettes were almost all over the territory.

“mother…Come here, I found it! I found it!”

In a dense forest, a little boy of only six or seven years old was messing around in the woods. Drill, the thin body has played an alternative advantage in the dense bushes that cannot move a single step. With the thin body, it can ignore the obstacles of many branches and hay, so that the little boy can move freely here, while the adults However, they had to work hard to remove or break the branches in the way, because they did not have a sharp iron tool to open the way.

When the little boy crawled through the path blocked by branches and weeds, he finally saw the scene inside. After seeing what was in front of him, the little boy excitedly climbed off the ground. He got up, almost shouting in a screaming tone.

“Father, mother, hurry up! There’s a lot of fruit here, can I get a little cake!”

“Little Kerry, wait a moment there, Father mother, come here immediately, you must not pick it yourself!”

Not far away, two middle-aged serfs, a man and a woman, were also searching around, and suddenly they heard the screams of their children, and they were immediately excited. Get up, if they really find that kind of thing, then even if they don’t farm today, it’s worth it.

“Little Kerry, just stay where you are and don’t move. If you gain a lot, the father will go to the next town to buy a cake for you to eat!”

Little Kerry can rely on With a small figure, he wandered around in the woods, but his parents couldn’t. Even if they knew where Rick was, the two had to keep detouring and tearing apart the dense bushes. Rick’s father groped. He rushed over and told Rick that he was afraid that Rick would destroy that kind of wild fruit ignorantly. After all, Mr. Steward had explained that only the intact ones were collected, and the broken ones were not. Steward said that this kind of wild fruit is called grapes. They were not used to the name of this grape for a while.

“Ah, the father is the best, the grapes are the best!”

Little Rick shouted excitedly when he heard the father’s words. He likes the wild fruit even more. This wild fruit used to be his favorite fruit. Today, he brought his parents to look for it, because he had seen it here when he was playing, and even the older friends didn’t like it. Know, because they can’t get in, this is Rick’s secret base, a treasure trove of snacks.

Today, for the fragrant and sweet cake, little Rick told them about his treasure trove without the slightest hesitation when his parents asked. You can eat it every day, but the fragrant and sweet cake can only be eaten once a year.

In fact, little Rick didn’t know that his so-called cake was nothing but white bread, but the white bread was added with some dried fruit and jam, which became the cake of these serf children.

The real cake can only be eaten by aristocrats. It needs to be baked with eggs, sugar and fine flour. Compared with the white bread that is only slightly screened, it is not delicious. how many times.

A few minutes later, after much effort, Kerry’s parents finally carved a path to Rick, and when they reached the clearing surrounded by branches and weeds I saw seven or eight vines growing in the open space. The vines of these vines climbed everywhere, and a bunch of grapes of purple crystal clear and near-transparent were covered with branches and vines.

“Little Rick, it’s great. After these grapes are exchanged for money at the castle, the father will buy you a cake tomorrow, and buy a piece as big as a father’s fist.”

Rick’s father was overjoyed to see so many grapes, but when he squatted down and looked at his five- or six-year-old son’s tender face with a few open wounds, his eyes were a little red, holding the Both hands gently rubbed Rick’s little head, and assured Rick in a loving tone.

“Yeah! Thank you father! Thank you mother!”

Little Rick was unaware of the wound on his face, only to hear that he was able to eat the cake right away, happily Jumping up, seeing Rick like this, his father mother hugged him tightly, and the three of them hugged each other tightly.

The serfs in the entire Storm Territory are in action, including the seaside mountain village, of course, but the slight difference is that the people in the seaside mountain village are divided into two waves, and a group of people have penetrated into the woods like other serfs. Find grapes.

The other group of people came to the seaside. Among the group of people on the seaside, little children are the main force. This is because children usually do the work of picking up oysters and catching lobsters. , they are more familiar with the habitat of these seafood than some adults, so the task of finding seafood is handed over to the children, and a few adults are responsible for catching the seafood after the children find the habitat.

Oysters can be found between the reefs, but lobsters need to go to the sea to find them, because the children’s sampans were lost not long ago, so when I learned yesterday that the fief lord will spend money to buy these seafood , the whole village mobilized, a group of more than ten people, cut down a lot of huge trees, hollowed out the interior directly, and made simple boats. Although the ability of this boat to resist waves is not high, it only needs to leave the beach. Lobster swarms can be seen within a few dozen meters, so it is just enough.

Gervais didn’t know that because of his orders, the serfs in the whole territory fell into excitement. In fact, they didn’t need to work every day to cultivate the land, but what could the serfs do if they didn’t go to the land? Women and children can also pick wild vegetables and fruits, but the male serfs have nothing to do, so they usually stay in the ploughing fields if they can’t be idle. They can not only drive away birds and beasts, but also clean up the weeds that have just emerged.

But it’s different now. Now picking wild fruits called grapes has become an opportunity to make money, and in the eyes of the serfs, it’s a big profit. Originally, only children and women did it, but male serfs They became the main force.

……

After the successful completion of the experiment of gunpowder and earthen grenades, Gervais took everyone back to the gentle slope of the castle, because the regular exercise in the morning was to practice running, and Gervais did not have any more To continue to follow the necessity, Gervais directly let Laurie Audrey take the lead in the long-distance running, and he ran to the cultivation in the space. In the future, he will only be responsible for the training in the afternoon, after all, his own cultivation cannot be left behind.
