Chapter 172 (1/2)
The gray sky seems to indicate the coming heavy rain.
In the center of the former panda collar, there is a small town with a large scale and a large population.
This town has no name. Even on the map hidden by the Lord, it is just marked with a red dot to show that there is such a town.
Unlike Hongye Town, the town has very distinctive red maple fruit wine to sell. However, the town is better than the surrounding fertile land, and the climate is not as cold as that in ordinary southern areas, so the town can plant plants three times a year, but the last planting after the autumn harvest is just a small addition. Therefore, when pandaling was not abandoned at the beginning, the villagers usually planted a large number of marketable crops during spring farming. After leaving for their own use, they saved some money through sales to help pay taxes in summer and autumn, while the harvest in autumn was used to pay taxes in winter.
Only the harvest of the last planting is what the townspeople can really keep. So usually with this little addition, they will grow what they like and store it for a rainy winter. Of course, those who have the ability and technology will also use these small additives to make some wine or dry food that can be stored for a long time, and then send them to the most prosperous town for sale.
But now, the townspeople of the town no longer need to calculate everything so tightly.
Because since the loss of the Lord's rule, the townspeople no longer need to pay taxes to anyone. Their harvest completely belongs to themselves. The surplus parts, whether for standby or for sale, are a good choice. Most importantly, they had good luck. They didn't quarrel with a mercenary regiment like Hongye Town, nor did the whole town become a human purgatory like dabron town.
The relationship between the townspeople and the mercenary Corps is really good. Many young people are even willing to join the mercenary Corps rather than reorganize a so-called militia Corps. So I heard that Hongye town played tricks on a militia regiment, and when they fought with the mercenary regiment several times, these townspeople would laugh at it. Even if the commander of their civilian regiment was a veteran who had experienced two wars, so what?
Isn't it the same as being crushed to death?
At this time, the townspeople will sincerely praise their mayor. If their mayor had not invited this highly rated mercenary corps, I'm afraid their town would be as miserable as Hongye town and dabron town sooner or later.
As for the Lord appointed by the female warrior God of the Principality of Ryan?
Hey, who cares!
I haven't had a lord in the past year. Isn't that what happened? But if they say so, they would like to thank the female martial god, because if it were not for the female martial god, their town would not be so relaxed and free now.
The wind blows slightly, bringing a trace of cool in the stuffy heat.
A young man wearing heavy armor and carrying a thick ridged heavy sword broke in from outside the town. The heavy armor on the man's body is not the general full-body armor, but a suit of armor composed of upper armor, shoulder protection, skirt armor, leg protection and heavy boots. Because this armor is made according to the body shape, its protection ability is slightly worse than that of ordinary heavy armor, but its weight is lighter, However, even if the weight is slightly reduced, the armor still weighs hundreds of kilograms, not to mention the thick ridged Epee in his hand, which is specially thickened and heavier for swinging and cutting.
But looking at the young man's behavior, he didn't seem to feel the weight of these objects.
He walked like the wind. Several mercenaries with long guns were patrolling the town. When he first met the young man, he was still at the gate of the town. When he just shouted out the deputy commander, the young man left only one back to face them.
”Deputy commander Floyd ran so fast that there was no urgent matter?” A mercenary looked at the young man's back and asked.
”It should be.” Another slightly older mercenary mused, ”the last time I saw the deputy commander like this, the group of bastards of dabron came over. Is it an accident over dabron this time?”
”Shouldn't it?” The third mercenary frowned. He had a scar on his face, but he didn't look ferocious. ”We fought with the rabbits of dabron before. They were completely defeated by us in that battle. How could we do it again Even if we really want to start a war again, it can't be at this time. It's only a long time since the end of the last war. ”
But if it wasn't war, what made their deputy commander so eager?
The man named Fred, like a gust of wind, quickly crossed the whole town and came to a house.
This house is nothing unusual. It is the most sparse and ordinary folk house in the town. However, since the mercenary regiment called heroic sword came here, the folk house has become much more lively. People from small towns often visit here every day. They didn't say there was something urgent. They just wanted to come here to meet the head and deputy head of the mercenary regiment. They always felt much more secure, so it became a custom after a long time.
”Captain!” Fred opened the door and strode towards the living room.
At this time, there were three people sitting in the living room. In addition to the head of the heroic sword, one was the mayor of the town, and the last was the rich businessman of the town. Since the brave sword came to this town, the rich businessman has become the logistics manager of this mercenary regiment. Naturally, he has the ability, because he alone can complete the armament replacement of the whole mercenary regiment. This overall planning ability can definitely be regarded as a talent.
When the three saw Fred's rush in, the three people who were still talking and laughing immediately became dignified.
