A few days later, the construction of the hospital and school began. Linna's drawings had been drawn, and Werther showed the drawings to the workers, who then built according to the drawings.
Henry stood energetically in front of the house where he once lived, looking at the house seriously.
"Are you sure you want to help build it?" Werther stood next to him and looked at him and asked.
"I'm sure." Henry nodded, "I still want to do more."
Vittor nodded: "Then come on, I will come here to help sometimes."
"I understand, Your Highness."
Workers were building hospitals and schools in three places. Werther breathed a sigh of relief, and the task finally started.
At this time, Wile said from the side: "Your Highness, you haven't had much rest in the past few days. I can just watch here. Why don't you go back to the castle and rest."
"No need." Witte said, "I still have energy, and I want to build with them today."
"But, Your Highness, you look very tired. You should go back and rest. I'll be fine here."
"You actually care about me." Werther smiled, "It's really unexpected."
"Hey, I've always cared about you, okay." Wile glanced at him sideways.
This day, Werther and Wile helped build hospitals and schools all day long.
At night, Henry was so tired that he lay down on the ground.
"Hey, Henry, what's wrong with you?" Werther quickly picked him up and carried him on his back, "Hold on, I'll take you to find Ivan now."
"I'm fine, Your Highness, I'm just too tired." Henry said weakly, "This is my first time helping to build a house, so I'm a little uncomfortable with it."
"Then what are you going to do next?" Wile asked beside him.
"Of course I have to continue." Henry raised his head slightly, looked at him and said, "I also want to make more money."
"You'd better do what you can." Werther said to him, "Don't tire yourself out. If you really need pocket money, just ask your parents for it."
"I've asked them for it many times, but they just won't give it to me." Henry puffed up his mouth, looking very aggrieved.
"You can support yourself now. It's normal if they don't pay you." Witte said, "There's nothing to feel wronged about. Just work hard. If your body can't support it, you can rest. After all, you can make money by teaching in the future.
of."
"I will do what I can, Your Highness. If my body can't bear it, then just come and work every two days. My wages can be reduced appropriately."
"That's fine," said Werther.
After returning to the castle, Tom brought another bulging envelope.
"Your Highness, this is sent from Nightstone Town."
"I understand, thank you Uncle Tom." Werther took the envelope and felt as if there were a lot of gold coins in it.
Could it be the money earned by the shops in Yeshi Town? He was suddenly pleasantly surprised. He hurriedly opened the envelope and poured out a few gold coins, a dozen silver coins and a piece of letter paper.
The letter reads:
"Your Highness, this is the money earned by Charik's taverns and hotels in the past month. The wages of the long-term workers have been excluded."
"That's great." Witte smiled, "It seems that the profits of those stores in Duck City are not too bad."
"Your Highness, the people from the winery brought news today that the winery has sold more wine in the past two days than before and made a profit.
A dozen gold coins." Tom continued.
"That's great." Witte nodded and said, "If we continue to do this, then there will be enough money to build hospitals and schools, and the people in our castle can live a better life."
"Daybreak Town is getting better and better now, Your Highness, thanks to you." Tom said with a smile, "If your uncle knew about this, how happy he would be."
Werther tilted his head slightly, looked at Tom, and asked: "Are you talking about my Uncle Three Kings?"
"Yes, he was supposed to live well in this world, but he was framed by Duke Duke, was jealous of his brother, and finally died young." Tom's eyes became dim and his tone was very sad, "If he is still alive
, I will definitely do my best to run the town as well as you do."
"Hmm." Werther put his cold hands on the outside of the warm cup, feeling the warmth of the coffee transmitted through the cup, and imagined the appearance of the Third Uncle in his mind.
"Your Highness, are you hungry now? Dinner is ready. I will go and bring it to the table for you now." Tom leaned slightly and turned to the kitchen.
Witte saw the loneliness on his back and couldn't help asking: "Do you always miss Uncle Three Kings?"
Tom stopped and did not look back. He just stood there quietly and said after a few seconds: "Your Highness, I am going to serve the dinner. If it is left for a long time, the taste may not be as good."
It seemed that Tom didn't want to mention the past anymore, and Werther was too embarrassed to continue asking.
He walked to the dining room and waited for Tom to bring the food. Unexpectedly, it was Wile and Kath who walked in.
"Hey, where's Uncle Tom?" he asked curiously.
Wile put the dinner plate in his hand on the table, glanced at him, and said, "I still want to ask you, we just saw Tom looking lonely, did you say something that irritated him?
"
Werther was stunned for a moment, suddenly remembering the conversation just now, and then whispered: "Maybe what we talked about just now brought back painful memories for him."
"Who asked you to say those things that made him sad?" Wile rolled his eyes.
Kath frowned and looked at him, obviously confused by his tone and expression. She couldn't understand how Wile managed to talk to the lord in such a way, probably because they were too familiar with each other.
"I didn't mean to say it, and he mentioned it first." Werther looked at Wile aggrievedly and explained, "I did ask more, but I didn't know it would make him so sad."
At this time, Tom brought the dessert over. After seeing them, he raised his eyebrows in surprise and said, "Wile, the reason why I was sad just now has nothing to do with His Highness. I just miss my former master."
"The former lord of Daybreak Town?" Wile asked, turning his head.
"Yeah." Tom put down the dessert and sighed softly, "He once thought about running Daybreak Town well, but he didn't have that chance. After he was killed by the king, Daybreak Town got worse and worse.
.Thanks to His Highness, this place can return to its former glory and become more and more prosperous."
"So, I still wrongly blamed His Highness just now." Wile put his index finger on the corner of his mouth, raised his eyes to look at the ceiling, and whispered.
"Of course I wrongly blamed him." Tom said, "His Highness is so kind to us, how can he bear to hurt us."
Werther smiled happily and began to eat his dinner.
dinner
After that, the castle suddenly fell into silence. People who had been busy for a day were very tired and were either lying on the sofa or sitting on chairs in front of the fireplace.
Werther was sitting in the rocking chair and was taking a nap when suddenly Zhizhi jumped into his arms and rubbed his two long ears against his clothes.
"Well, Zhizhi, why are you here?" He held the plant elf in his hands and said with a smile, "Shouldn't you be sleeping in the elf's room now?"
Zhizhi played in his arms for a while, and he had to play games with it. Unknowingly, a pair of brand new shoes was placed next to him. The hands holding the shoes were rough and gave people a sense of security.
feel.
After Zhizhi got tired of playing and returned to the elf room, Werther noticed the pair of shoes next to the rocking chair. He picked up the new shoes in surprise and looked at them. He found that the shoes looked very warm, although they were not very delicate.
It is very comfortable to wear.
There is a note next to the shoes that reads: "Your Highness, this is a gift for you."
He lowered his head and looked at his shoes, only to find that they were obviously damaged. Looking at the shoes in his hands, he suddenly felt warm in his heart.
"Who put it here?" He looked around and found that everyone was resting.
He looked carefully at everyone here and found that only Tom was not here. He got up and walked in the corridor, and heard something like a sound on the second floor, so he walked up.
At the door of his bedroom, he saw Tom. At this time, Tom was carefully wiping the door handle with a clean rag. After seeing Werther, he opened his mouth in surprise, and then smiled warmly.
At this time, Werther understood what had just happened. Everyone in the castle was resting, and Tom quietly placed the shoes he bought for him next to him, and then came here to clean the bedroom for him.
Thinking of this, Werther felt a little moved.
"Uncle Tom, you are here!" he said in surprise, "You have been tired for a long day, please take a rest."
"I'm not tired, Your Highness." He said softly, "I want to clean the door of this bedroom more cleanly."
"No need, Laura already wiped it the day before yesterday." Werther said, "It's still very clean now."
Tom smiled and shook his head and said: "As a housekeeper, I will definitely try my best to take good care of you. I am not tired, Your Highness, you can continue to rest."
Werther stretched out his hand, took the rag in his hand, put it behind him, and said with a smile: "There is no rag now, go and have a rest."
Tom was amused by him, frowned and said with a smile: "In that case, I have no choice but to sit in front of the fireplace and drink coffee."
"Uncle Tom, I have another question to ask you." Werther looked at him seriously, "Did you give me these shoes?"
Tom just nodded and said nothing.
Werther looked at the shoes with emotion, smiled, and immediately put on the new shoes, and then said to Tom: "They fit very well. Thank you, Uncle Tom."
"As long as you like it. I hope you will not disappoint our expectations, run Dawn Town and Nightmoon Town well, and protect yourself and the people here. Of course, this is also your uncle's expectation."
Werther saw the tears flashing in Tom's eyes, nodded and said, "I will definitely do it well."
"Your Highness, if you want to run the town well, you must not only keep the people fed and clothed, but also understand their joys, sorrows and joys."
Werther thought about his words carefully, then nodded and said, "I understand."
