Chapter 138: The Gradually Stable Territory

"Hello, sir."

Walking in the city, passers-by took off their hats and saluted the unknown knight. They had heard more or less about what happened that night. It was precisely because of the existence of this hero that the cavalry finally restrained themselves.

No more random killings.

They were more willing to trust this knight and beings like Guhuas than the cruel nobles who broke their promises.

Now that the war has gone through, ruins and burned sites still remain in many places in the city, but a general order has finally been established.

Guhuas found several leaders of the rebellion at that time, and together they formed a group of trustworthy people to form a temporary patrol team, carrying weapons and maintaining law and order on the streets.

They are locals, so they naturally know which are the ruffians and which are the honest and kind-hearted farmers. Very few people can deceive them.

With these people here, people who take advantage of the chaos to rob and steal will no longer be seen on the streets. And those troublemakers who were caught are now being assigned to dig stones in the nearby mountains to rebuild the city. There are natural

Someone treats them.

Walking through the main road in the city, the knight came to the ruins of the castle, where many people were now gathered.

Some of them are local people who are watching the fun and curious, and most of them are Atomic Lord's subordinates.

Under the command of Guhuas, the guards were removing bricks and rubble and digging out the contents. Occasionally they found buried money and treasures, which were put into boxes aside and stored as funds for the territory in the future.

"You, and you, don't be lazy there." Gu Huas waved his big ax and pointed at several guards in the field, forcing them to speed up.

Nowadays, no one in the city can beat this old man. For the sake of their own lives, these guards naturally dare not disobey. Besides, the eldest lady also asked them to obey, so who can they complain to.

As for the housekeeper, he was also surrounded by several strong soldiers in a small pavilion nearby, asking him to identify the things dug out one by one and make records.

"If you dare to cheat, I will kill you."

That day, Guwars scratched the side of the ear of Butler Bulvos with an ax, pulling up several strands of hair, which made him tremble with fear. He had seen Guwars kill Viscount Wenlani with his own eyes, and he believed that killing him was just casual.

It is natural to be afraid of things.

As a last resort, the housekeeper had no choice but to obey the order, classify these things one by one, and record them in a book.

The unknown knight said that if he fails to keep up with the situation in the future and is found to be intentionally explicit and untruthful, he will be held accountable.

Compared to the simple-minded Guwars, the unknown knight caused more headaches for the housekeeper. If it hadn't been for him, the eldest lady would not have listened and actually allowed these rebels to join the current viscounty.

These are enemies, how can we stay together?

Although he saved his life, the housekeeper was still depressed and had to work every day.

"Let me take a look at this wine glass. It should be a product of the Imperial Fragrance Year. At that time, it was popular to use enamel to imprint bird patterns on the cup." The butler raised his glasses to observe carefully.

"Just tell me how much it is." The rough guy on the side didn't care about this.

"Ahem, this is difficult to evaluate. If it is a noble who likes collecting, it is estimated that it can be sold for more than 10 gold coins. But if you can't find a good buyer, it will be difficult to sell it." The butler frowned.

"Okay, just 10 extraordinary gold coins." The people on the side didn't care and wrote directly on the booklet.

Looking at the numbers written down above, the housekeeper felt uneasy. Who else could he turn to when dealing with these things? Will it fall on him again? But what if he can't sell them? These stupid people

It's hard for you to explain to them.

"This is just an estimate, it's difficult to implement..." He made a final struggle.

"Huh? Are you lying to me?" The thick man on the side raised his eyebrows.

"No, no, no, how dare I lie to you. Actually... ok, ok, just 10 gold coins." He wiped the sweat from his head and quickly stopped the topic.

"The next thing is, what is the origin of this painting?" As he said this, a man brought a damaged oil painting.

In the painting, there is a young aristocratic girl, wearing a light yellow and white dress and a sun hat, running among the flowers. There is also a shadow standing far away in the corner of the painting.

Unfortunately, the originally beautiful painting is now full of dust and stains, with burnt and yellowed marks on the corners.

"This, this, isn't this Wenlani's family heirloom?" Looking at this painting, the housekeeper felt heartbroken.

The girl in the painting is the sister of Wenlani's ancestor, the one who brought everything to the Wenlani family, so the significance of this painting is particularly important. It has been hung in a secret room all year round. Even the housekeeper has only been there for many years.

I met him at a banquet before.

At that time, in order to show the long history of his family, the previous Viscount Wenlani hung this painting at the banquet, and only then did it let everyone see it.

"Tell me, how much is it worth?" The person next to me said nonchalantly.

"This, how do people evaluate this? It may be an ordinary painting to outsiders, but to the Wenlani family, this painting is a priceless treasure." The housekeeper explained, looking at the burned corners, and kept thinking

Shake his head and sigh.

"Don't waste time, give me a decision quickly." The strong men next to him have long been disgusted with this white-faced steward. In the past, this guy often bullied people in the territory.

"Ahem, I think I need to ask Miss Gweir about this. After all, this is the inheritance of the Wenlani family." In desperation, the housekeeper had to think of another way.

Seeing that these people were still in trouble, the sound of relief finally came.

"Put this painting aside for now."

Lorraine Hill hid under the armor, walked slowly, and looked at the half-destroyed picture.

"Yes, sir." When these people saw it was 'him', they all stood up and answered respectfully.

This hero who saved the city was even stronger than Gu Huas. Naturally, they admired him and would not object.

Picking up the book next to the table, Lorraine Hill briefly read it and estimated its value.

It's about more than 300 gold coins. The things I found are very fragmentary. Even if I want to sell them, it will not be an easy task.

Putting down the book, he continued to look at the ruins in front of him. Judging from the progress, it was estimated that it would take another week to completely clean up.

"Sir, do you think this is reasonable?" A few people nearby asked carefully. In their eyes, this chivalrous knight should be born into a famous family. He has the style of a glorious noble in ancient times. He is well-informed and must know this butler.

Did you perfunctory them?

"It's roughly reasonable, but it's difficult to fulfill it now." The girl under the helmet shook her head.

"But I'll keep it anyway so it can come in handy in the future. I'll continue to trouble you these days."

"No problem, we'll take care of it." Hearing this adult's compliment, these people felt very motivated, patted their chests, and agreed.

Afterwards, Lorraine Hill walked around in front of the ruins of the castle again, and then returned to the shade of a tree nearby. Guwars was sitting under the tree, with an unopened bandage on his body, and a calligraphy book in his hand.

brochure.

Lorraine Hill is currently practicing the Natural Sequence, which cannot heal wounds instantly and quickly like the Angel Sequence. Fortunately, with the help of medicine, it is not difficult to heal slowly, but it will take more time.

Because he saved Guhuasi's life and was stronger than him, this Barbarian Bull was naturally willing to be his younger brother and work behind 'him'.

"Brother is back, how are you? I'm in charge pretty well, haha." The big man showed a rough smile.

"It's very good, but how have you been learning calligraphy recently?" The girl's eyes under the mask instantly glanced at the booklet, and when she saw the slightly new marks on it, she knew that this strong man rarely opened it.

"Ahaha, this, this..." Looking at the silent knight in front of him, Guhuas shook his head, gradually sweating, and finally had to admit it honestly.

"This is too difficult, I feel sleepy just watching it, and I'm just a thug, so learning this is really of no use."

Hearing this, the knight shook his head.

"No, you have to learn." 'He' didn't want to explain the reason, because once explained, this slippery guy would definitely find various reasons to escape.

"In three days, I'll come to check your progress. If you're not satisfied with it." As he finished speaking, a cold look came out of the mask, which startled the brute.

"Okay, no problem, boss." Gu Huas quickly lowered his head to show that he listened.

It’s really weird. By the way, I’m just a strong mercenary and adventurer. Why did I become the leader of the rebels in Viscount Wenlani overnight? Not to mention, I killed Viscount Wenlani.

, was actually forgiven by her daughter, and recruited An as the captain to lead the army, in charge of the military personnel in the territory.

What's even more unbelievable is that at my age, I still have to learn to read and pronounce words from scratch like those little kids. It's really embarrassing.

However, if it is the request of this life-saving brother, then he has no choice but to agree. Who should let himself owe a life, and he is better than himself.

A big fist means really big. This is Gu Huas's philosophy of life.
