Chapter 92: Fraud

Before going to Kitano Town, Lorist felt very strange. What kind of injuries did the family's three-star knight recover and was not healed after three years.

At Morning Academy, Lorist studied pharmacy, but although he did not get the certificate of a first-level pharmacist. It mainly requires a year of medical treatment to obtain the certificate of a first-level pharmacist, and Lorist did not have the time to play the role of an angel in white. However, being able to graduate from the pharmacy major means that Lorist himself has become an intern pharmacist. In addition to the knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine from his previous ancestors, Lorist is not unfamiliar with the detection of the human body.

When studying pharmacy, Lorist learned that in this world of Dou Qi, no matter what kind of physical damage it is, with the help of potions and Dou Qi, the human body can always recover quickly. As long as the hands and feet are not lacking, they can always be connected to you, and the bones and positions of the whole body can be restored. There was a case where two great swordsmen duels, and the loser was seriously injured, his whole body was as limp as mud, dying. But after a year and a half of treatment, the loser was revived again, and even Dou Qi returned to his former level.

When Lorist took Berunek's pulse, he soon discovered a fact that Berunek's injuries had long recovered, but now his weak and weak look was because he was poisoned, and it was a long-term poison of dispersing energy!

Thinking about the daily diet that Beruneck mentioned, Lorist knew that it was obviously Master Donbasen who was making trouble. A first-level pharmacist actually had the face and was called a master. Bah, he was really not irritable. He let Beruneck take the poison of dispersing Qi regularly, which made him unable to gather the fighting energy to restore his body and practice. Two bowls of porridge every day made his body unable to get enough nutrition and weak, and then pushed everything to the internal organs of the body, because the organs were displaced and the organs were broken and difficult to recover, so he easily played with a silver three-star knight between his palms.

In three years, an important military pillar of the Norton family was deposed on the sickbed. If Beruneck had recovered early, his father might not have regretted the battlefield or died seriously. If Beruneck had presided over the overall situation in the family, there would have been no panic and was bullied by Viscount Kenmes.

Because there was no silver three-star family knight in charge, these garrison families had the confidence to refuse to obey the family's instructions, and even wanted to gain the status of a quasi-noble from the Norton family... At this moment, Lorist became more and more angry, and his whole body was cold and murderous aura burst out.

"Damn..." Lorist said that he wanted to kill Master Donbason's family, and he secretly swore in his heart that he would never let anyone in the Donbason family go.

Although Berunek was weak, he had been out on the battlefield for a long time and had a stable mind. Even though he was startled by Lorist's sudden change, he thought Lorist was feeling sad for his current appearance. He smiled and patted the back of Lorist's hand: "Don't be sad, sir, I'm used to it. One day, this day will end..."

"Brother Baker, I can't stay here anymore. I will take you back to the family's manor castle. I will find a way to get your injuries." Lorist said.

Berunek was stunned for a moment and took a deep breath: "Okay, sir, I'm tired of staying here too. I've been in the middle of three years, just like being imprisoned in this small yard, I dreamed of going back to my family's manor castle..."

"You can't go anywhere without my permission..." A duck's voice suddenly rang behind the two of them.

"Oh, Master Donbasen, are you here?" Berunek said lightly.

Lorrist slowly turned around, and in front of him stood an old man with a proud and gloomy face, wearing a black robe imitated aristocratic dress, and a gray leather vest on the outside.

"You are the pharmacist named Donbasen?" Lorist asked word by word.

The old man looked at Lorist and ignored Lorist, as if he hadn't seen Lorist, he turned around Beruneck in a circle, fucking the ugly duckling voice, "Baker, your body is very bad. Yesterday you insisted on going back to the manor castle, because of the excitement of emotions, the internal organs in your body shifted again, which was equivalent to the insemination of treatment in the previous few months. For your health, you should stay here and don't go anywhere."

"Dog shit!" Lorist scoffed: "Old man, why don't you say that there is something wrong with your treatment? Three years ago, even though Brother Baker was seriously injured in killing the demon bear, he moved from the place where he killed the demon bear to the family's manor castle, and then from the manor castle to Kitano Town, and now he has been treated for three years but he can't move at all. Isn't this the more he treats it, the worse it gets? You, the self-proclaimed pharmacist, seem to be just that little skill, it's better not to cure it. Brother Baker, I'll take you away. At worst, I can spend more gold coins to find a senior pharmacist to come and see you. Don't worry, I have gold coins."

When Lorist said this, the old man was immediately uneasy: "Who are you, what are you doing here? Who allowed you to enter this yard?"

"Haha, who am I? Brother Baker, tell this old man," said Lorist.

"Master Donbasen, this is our new lord, this is his territory. Also, you have to salute him..." said Berunek.

"See, I've seen Lord Lord." The old man reluctantly saluted Lorist and said hello.

"You are tactful, old man. If you are no longer rude, I will kill you with one sword. In view of the fact that you have been treating Brother Baker for three years without any credit and hard work, I will spare you this time. Now you don't object to me, bring Brother Baker back to the manor castle, right?" Lorist asked, stroking the sword handle of his sword.

The old man had sweat on his forehead and bit his teeth for a long time before saying, "Since the lord insists on this, I have nothing to say. Let me take it back first and prepare a few tubes of medicine for Baker, so as to take it to the manor castle to prevent his injuries from worsening again..."

"Go, I'll wait for you for an hour to bring the potion," said Lorist.

Seeing the old man exiting the small yard in a hurry, Lorist looked at Beruneck, staring at him with confusion, leaned down slightly, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Brother Baker, from this moment on, you must not enter anything or food, without my permission, do you understand?"

Berunek was shocked: "You mean... I get it."

An hour passed quickly, and the old man Donbassen had not yet sent his potion.

Manager Kedan came in and reported: "Sir, several captains of the Kitano Town Guard Team and the head of the family came to pay homage to the Lord. Sir, the person who came is not good, you have to be careful."

...

"This is Captain Molin, this is the head of the Molin family, this is Captain Hassan, this is the head of the Hassan family, this is Captain Cupim, this is the head of the Cupim family, hey, be careful, there is a pit on the ground, don't fall to you. This is Captain Donbason, you already know this, Master Donbason..." Kodan introduced to Lorist while greeting him.

A group of mermaids came in one after another and saluted Lorist, while Lorist nodded reservedly to show his return.

When he was at the last one, Lorist smiled: "Master Donbasen, have you brought the potion back? Oh, this bag is Sedekamp, ​​take the bag, and ask the master later how to take it before letting Brother Baker take it... Now accept it? Haha, don't be so anxious. Come on, Master, sit here, let's discuss the matter."

After everyone got into the seat, Lorist looked around and said, "Everyone must have something to do when you come. I will go back later. Please tell me if you have anything to say."

A fat old man stood up, and Lorist heard from Kodan that he was the head of the Molin family. The fat old man saluted Lorist first and then explained everyone's purpose.

The head of the Molin family first apologized for not attending the inheritance ceremony of Lorist last night. He meant that he was embarrassed to go there empty-handed because the time was too tight. So today, he heard that the new lord had arrived and rushed to visit him. He said that he would prepare the gift in a few days and go to the family's manor castle again to congratulate him.

Lorist generously expressed that he didn't mind and understood everyone's respect. As for the gift, he would happily accept it.

After some politeness, the head of the Molin family protested against the Norton family on behalf of the Kitano Town Guard. First, the Norton family ignored the garrison in the past two years and owed the garrison for nearly two years. Although the monthly salary subsidy of a garrison was only one imperial silver coin, the total salary of two hundred garrison members was only two imperial old head gold coins, but in two years, there were a total of forty-eight imperial old head gold coins, which was a considerable amount.

Second, more than two hundred years ago, when the ancestors of the Norton family recruited garrison members, they promised that each garrison member's family could be divided into ten acres of land. Now, all around Kitano Town has been opened up as farmland, but most of the families of garrison members have no land to cultivate. I hope that the new head of the family can solve this problem as soon as possible and do not let the promises of the ancestors become empty words or lies.

The third question is that given the small land and the large number of people, the relatives of many garrison members in Kitano Town are idle. As the new lord, can Lorist issue several caravan pass permits to allow Kitano Town to organize several small caravans to go out for transactions on their own? Of course, these caravans will pay 10% of the profits to the lord as usual.

Lorist smiled and nodded constantly, as if he agreed with the opinions and opinions raised by the head of the Molin family, but he sneered in his heart. He treated himself as a fool, really, did he think that he didn't know the purpose of these dogs coming? After all, it was for the third item, and wanted to bargain with him and ask him to send them a few caravan passes so that their smuggling team could go out to trade openly in the name of the Norton family caravan. Without a caravan pass, they could not trade with other businesses, could not buy the supplies they needed, and could only conduct small-scale underground transactions sneakily.

Also, what they said is that they paid 10% of the profits to the lord according to the old rules? It is common for the caravan pass issued by the lord to let the lord organize caravans to go out for trading on their own. However, the lord accounts for at least 50 to 30% of the profits in such caravans, and it is not uncommon for greedy lords to account for 70%. Do they think this 10% of the taxes paid by other caravans when they come to the territory?

Lorist smiled and apologized to everyone present. Because he had just inherited the territory and did not know that the garrison was owed to pay, he would conduct a detailed investigation after he returned. If there was indeed such a matter, he would compensate the garrison members. Lorist said that he came back to inherit the territory this time and brought 10,000 gold blessings over, and exchanged one gold blessing on the market for four gold coins of the Imperial Old Man Head, and forty-eight gold coins of the Imperial Old Man Head, only twelve gold coins of the Imperial Old Man Head, such a small amount is not worth mentioning. So please rest assured that money is not a problem.

Regarding the second question, Lorist said that this is a historical issue, but he is still confident that he will solve it. Now he has an idea, so everyone can think about it together.

"Maintain Kedan, how many acres of land does Kitano Town have in total?" Lorist asked.

"Sir, Kitan Town has more than 27,000 acres of land." Manager Kedan replied.

"I have this opinion..." Lorist said: "I am going to expand the garrison in Kitano Town to four hundred people..."

"Ah!" The heads and garrison captains present were screaming in surprise. The lords of the Norton family have always wanted to limit the size of the garrison, or even cancel them. Why does this person in turn want to expand the garrison?

"Sir, how can I expand the land without land?" The head of the Hassan family stood up and asked.

"There are many fields, and there are many fields." Lorist smiled and said, "Taking Beiye Town as an example, it has 27,000 acres of land and recruits 400 garrison members. Each garrison member's immediate relatives will be calculated based on parents, two wives and two children. One person has 10 acres of land and 400 garrison members is 24,000 garrison members. Isn't this kind of land sufficient?"

"But, sir, those garrison members have other relatives, and they have brothers and sisters..." The head of the Molin family shouted.

"What is the name? I naturally have other arrangements. Manager Kodan will come over with a territory map." Lorist ordered.

The map was soon placed in front of everyone.

"Look at this place, the terrain is gentle and not far from Kitano Town. I plan to build a town here. After the building is completed, the surrounding wasteland will be reclaimed no less than Kitano Town. Then a garrison will be formed to allocate fields as Kitano Town. Isn't the problem solved?" Lorrist said lightly.

"But, but sir, there will be occasional mountain barbarians invading this place..."

"So what about the mountain barbarians? This time I hired a very famous mercenary group to deal with the mountain barbarians. It would be fine if they didn't come, so they would arrest them as slaves when they came. We need labor to build the city, so I am very welcome to come here for free! And you, don't you go out if you have mountain barbarians? You can stay in Kitano Town as a turtle all day long? You can see that this place is so big, what is the future of development! Also, this time, the expansion of the garrison team will also be stationed in Jiancheng. There are still three thousand acres of land in Kitano Town without owners. I plan to grant three quasi-knights, one person, one thousand acres, and then choose one to be the mayor of Kitano Town, and two to be the deputy mayors." Lorist threw a big bait.

"Master, sir, are you saying true?" The few people present were excited.

"Of course, you know that I have been studying in Moriente City for ten years. Territory management is the most popular and democratic way of management there. I am going to implement it in the territory this time. Manager Kodan, you have been staying in Kitano Town these few days, and register the families of the soldiers of the family and those residents without land. I am going to use them as laborers for building the city. What do you think?" said Lorist.

"This is very good, we agree..."

Of course you agree, maybe you wish they would get out of Kitano Town as soon as possible. Lorist said with a smile on his face, "That would be the best. I'll ask you to trouble you when it comes to expanding the garrison team in Kitano Town. It's best to allocate all the fields of the selected garrison teams, and send them to the construction site to work, so that they won't miss each other. Please, I will remember your credit."

"Sir, sir, what's the matter with that caravan pass?" The duck-like voice was made by Master Donbasen.

"That caravan pass, I'm sorry, we are in a state of war with Viscount Kenmath. His viscount's lord blocked our external access. When we defeat Viscount Kenmath and resume traffic, we will discuss the caravan pass." Lorrist said.
