Chapter 343 Flattery can’t shoot!

La Jin Family, in Yejin Fort, Avery count’s face was extremely gloomy, and Charmian steward in front of him was bending cautiously, reading the Jibb Town report that had just been delivered.

“The entire dock was destroyed and burned, and it can no longer be repaired! The entire town of Gib was burned and turned into rubble, and the garrison camp was also burned and turned into rubble.”

“A total of 50 guards and 30 guards on the ship were all killed, and none survived! There were 386 townspeople in Jibu Town, only 130 escaped, and the rest of the townspeople were all missing! Shipbuilding in the dock There were 20 craftsmen in total, and all of them were missing!”

“More than 100 battallions of the Yejin Knight regiment were stationed, including Captain Nem, all of whom died in battle, but none survived, and a total of 60 corpses of war horses were found Eight, and the rest of the horses are missing.”

After reading this, Charmian Steward couldn’t help but paused, glanced cautiously at Avery Count, and was a little afraid to continue.

“Read!”

Although Avery’s face is sinking, he is a veteran count who has been in power for many years. Although his tone is cold at the moment, he still can’t hear much. mood.

“Yes! Your lord!”

Charmian has been with Avery for more than 20 years. He knows that Avery is actually furious at the moment, but the current situation is only Can brace oneself continue to recite.

“Two ships carrying coconut pomelo trees were docked in the dock for maintenance that night, and they disappeared after the war. In addition to the guards who died in the battle, Wright’s wife and his wife were responsible for taking care of the coconut pomelo trees. The serfs also disappeared together.”

Charmian finally read the last sentence out. To be honest, the loss at this time is unprecedented for the La Jin Family.

In particular, the three things of the shipyard craftsman, the Coconut Gold Knight group, and the potion coconut pomelo tree have problems together, which simply detonated the oil pot of the Jin Family.

“Did you find any clues, who did it?”

After a long silence, Avery finally spoke.

“My lord, no clues were found in Gib Town, not even the corpses of the enemy. The only thing that is certain is that these enemies landed from the sea!”

Charmian was in a cold sweat. He was guilty of submitting this result to Avery. Although he was not responsible for this investigation report, it was his steward who faced Avery at the moment. Now the loss is so great , but don’t even know the identity of the enemy, this time someone will definitely be unlucky.

“At sea?”

Avery closed his eyes, thinking about what force could annihilate the Coconut Knights so quickly and completely, and even ran out a person to report the news Can’t do it.

“Is Wright back?”

After thinking for a long time, Avery only thought of two possible enemies. The town’s attack, after all, only when the enemy is strong enough to be able to calmly clean up the scene after the raid.

Of course, Avery wouldn’t have imagined that none of Gervais’ subordinates were killed in action, only a few hapless ones were lightly wounded.

Second is Wright, Wright has this strength, and there is also the possibility of this motive, his wife and Nem’s affairs are not very secret, it is only because Wright can’t get ashore all the year round, so he was deceived. In the dark, it was also one reason why Avery speculated about Wright, because he had the motivation and strength to attack Nem’s camp.

Of course, there is one thing that doesn’t make sense here, that is, if Wright really wants revenge, why burn the dock and Gibb Town, after all, his son is still pulling the Jin Family. When the vassal Baron.

“My lord, I haven’t received any news from Wright. We currently have only five ships left to transport items around, so there is no way to send someone to the island to check on Wright’s situation!”

Charmian Steward answered truthfully.

“Send someone to keep an eye on Wright’s son, Samson Baron, and bring him to Coconut Castle if there is any sign of trying to escape!”

Avery said Solemnly, Avery can’t handle so much at this moment, he just wants to catch these murderers quickly so that he can vent the monstrous anger in his heart.

“Yes, my lord!”

“In addition, the investigation of this matter should continue. Let’s check the movements of other counts during this period. In addition, publish A bounty, 50 gold coins for anyone who can provide information on the attacker!”

“Yes! Your Excellency!”

50 gold coins is really a huge bounty, if it weren’t for this The attackers not only killed a hundred battalions of the Yejin Knights, but also stole the saplings of the magic medicine coconut pomelo tree, one of the roots of the Ye Jin family, and the Jin family would never pay such a price.

Because if you don’t find out the enemy quickly and recover the magic medicine coconut palm tree, it is very likely that one day in the future, the enemy will be able to use the magic medicine coconut palm tree to attack the economic lifeline of the Jin Family. blow.

After the island’s exploration was over, Gervais left Laurie’s guard, the squad, to supervise the serfs to open up the island.

The first step is to cut down some trees on the island, extending from the beach to the stone house by the lake.

Then build a gathering place around this small lake. When the gathering place is completed, a few fields can be plowed to grow crops. If the speed is fast enough, maybe the grain can be harvested in the next season of this year, when the time comes these serfs are fully self-sufficient.

As for Laurie’s Squad, there are only 14 people. In the face of more than 200 serfs from looting, will the number be too small to suppress? Gervais is very relieved, the serfs of this world. In fact, it has been completely domesticated by the nobles, and as long as there is still a way to live, it will not resist.

Being a serf for the La Jin Family or a serf for the Gervais, in fact, there is no difference for them, and Gervais has issued a decree that the land reclaimed on this island will not collect any tax for three years .

There were many serfs who moved on the spot, and reclaiming the land was not a big deal for them. Compared with not collecting taxes for three years, it could at least guarantee them a stable life for several years.

At the same time, the workers who took care of the coconut teak trees and the craftsmen who built the boats, Gervais did not let them idle, and had already explained that when the serfs began to cut down trees, there would be surplus space and wood.

A few people who know how to plant coconut pomelo trees are responsible for finding suitable locations to plant the magical medicine coconut pomelo tree seedlings, and to ensure the survival of the coconut pomelo tree. If you did good, you can receive a salary of one copper per day in the future.

As for the craftsmen, they need to use the freshly cut wood to build a wooden bridge outside the beach, which can be regarded as a simple dock. After all, a boat-builder is also an excellent carpenter.

As for the construction of the dock, this year Gervais does not have so many manpower to build it, so it can only be put into next year, when there are enough manpower, the construction will start immediately.

After explaining everything, Gervais left the island with seven ships and moved towards the storm.

Standing on the boat, Gervais looked towards the island has become a look of anticipation, even if orcs invade every year in the future, but when he transfers some industries here, the impact will become Very little, at most, the serfs were unable to cultivate grain for two seasons.

“Lear, tell me what the names of the islands you meet at sea are?”

Standing at the stern, now the island is officially occupied by him, and it has begun to develop , Gervais feels that the matter of naming can no longer be delayed.

“Sir, there are many small islands in the sea that have no names. We usually pick them up by ourselves, such as Wright Island, Turtle Island, Banana Island…”

Lille He quickly replied respectfully, and after answering, seeing that Gervais didn’t speak, Lille carefully patted flattery again.

“Lord, you look at this small island is so beautiful, with a piece of green on it! I think it should be named Gervais Viscount Island! This will show your majesty, Lord!”

But obviously, there is a generation gap between Lille’s level of flattery and Gervais!

Lear didn’t get the praise from Gervais, but suddenly felt a chill on his neck, as if he was about to lose his head.

Lear shrank his head quickly and looked around secretly, but found nothing unusual.

“The island of Viscount Gervais? It’s green on it? Isn’t that what people will call it in the future: Viscount Gervais is green, but it’s beautiful! Ah, no, I need to add an ‘island’!”

What a flattery shot! Lear didn’t know, his feeling was real, he almost got his braids! Gervais has the urge to send Lille to serve the glory boss, after all, it is too subservient for such a talented person to stay here.

“Let’s call it Golden Island!”

Finally, Gervais held back! In the end, Gervais ignored Lear and moved towards the captain’s room.

“His…”

Lear sizzled for a long time and didn’t know how to compliment, Golden Island! This name is too… too unaristocratic!
