”Alright, what master Ikki wants to know?”
”How many people in this village have?”
”Around 200 people master Ikki”
”What they do for a living?”
”Mostly farming, some hunting, lumberjacks and few people with certain skill do as their respective skill, like Lukas, he works as a blacksmith, there are also some carpenters, we also have tailors”
”Is there any cattle here chief? Instead some chicken in the back of your house I didn't see any animal like horse or cow”
”We have some master Ikki, but we placed them in another place in the village together. You know their shit can bring bad smell if the stable too close to the house”
”Oh, that really thoughtful chief, you're right about that. What kind of cattle there?”
”Some horses, cows, goat. We use horse and cow to plow the field, and goat for its meat and milk”
”Is there any other village like this village?”
”The other villages? There're some. Like us, they also mostly founded by runaway slave”
”Did they make contact with your village?”
