Chapter 77 It’s easy to do things when there are many people
"Sir, this is the information about those serfs."
Karis placed a stack of parchment on the table, "Most of the serfs here only know how to farm, a few have certain skills, and a few have certain reading and writing abilities."
Linn took it over and looked at it carefully.
"A carpenter who can read and write, a beekeeper, and a dyer." Linn murmured.
After reading it, he looked up and looked outside. The serfs were waiting outside the yard.
And the panel in front of him also changed.
"Task 7: Increase the population, complete the task and reward talents [long-term task 30/30] (completed) next stage (0/50)"
[Task Reward: Beekeeper, Excellent Carpenter]
Lin En nodded slightly, it seemed that this reward should be given to both of them.
An excellent beekeeper has a very important status and can even live a more comfortable life than ordinary free people. This is a rare occupation because bees are aggressive and can sting people if they are not careful.
Beekeepers need to understand the habits of bees and know how to collect honey, which is not something that ordinary people can do casually.
In particular, there is a kind of honey wine among the nobles, which is deeply loved by the upper class nobles. Most nobles do not have the money to buy it, and the main raw material of this wine is honey.
Ashes Town is located in the Sunset Forest, with a large number of flowers growing around it, and you can also plan the place to plant flowers, which is especially suitable for bees to live.
Once you successfully raise bees, you can not only drink mead, but you can also add honey to your daily diet.
As for the outstanding carpenter, I don’t know what he knows at the moment, but he can be asked to follow Farr to make a water wheel.
Lin En tapped his fingers on the table and wondered: "Are there so many capable people among serfs? They master a craft and should be free people."
Karis replied, "I asked, these people with abilities were all free people before, but later they were sold into serfs because of some things."
Linn probably understood after listening to Karis's words.
"Taxes!" Linn muttered twice.
"Master, how should we distribute it?"
"These incompetent people were sent to Old Tom to cut down trees, reclaim land, and find young and strong people to mine mining areas."
"Mining area?" Karis was confused.
Lin En smiled and said, "Where do you think those magic potions come from?"
"Isn't it the Mage Tower?" Karis replied. Linn had told him something about the Mage Tower before, and he vowed never to tell anyone.
Karis was extremely moved by his master's trust.
"There is a mining area outside the mage tower, and I saw iron ore there."
"Ah?" Karis's eyes widened in shock, "Is this true?"
Then, he slapped himself and said, "Sir, you will definitely not joke about this kind of thing."
"The mining area, even the Earl doesn't have many mines."
Karis was really shocked. As a steward, he naturally understood the importance of iron ore. If a large amount of iron ore could be mined, it would be a huge wealth, whether for personal use or trading.
But
Karis suddenly thought of something, "Sir, iron ore involves too many interests, we can."
"You can't protect it, right?" Lin En seemed to know what he wanted to say.
Although everything in the territory belongs to the lord, if you leave the territory to sell it, you will face many problems.
"So, I'm going to set up a militia." Lin En explained the plan he had already made step by step.
"You will find those adult serfs who are free from disabilities and diseases, including the original serfs, and I will train them."
Karis had not yet come out of the surprise in the mining area, and was shocked again, "Sir, training serfs is not in line with the behavior of aristocrats, and they don't even know the words, so how can they train them to ride horses and use swords."
In his opinion, the lord formed a militia just like the knights, both to protect the security of the territory. However, generally speaking, those who could enter were civilians and above, and serfs did not have this qualification.
These serfs didn't even know their true age, so it was simply impossible for them to learn how to use a sword.
Lin En glanced at him and said, "We don't have enough civilians, so we can only use serfs. As for the noble behavior, do you think the things I did before are consistent with it?"
Karis thought for a moment and shook his head.
"That's it. Here, don't care about any noble behavior, as long as it is useful. As for how to train, that is my business. By the way, you can also tell the civilians in the town. It is best if they are willing."
Linn paused and continued: "Tell those who meet the requirements that as long as they participate in training and persevere, they can drink a bowl of meat porridge every day."
Karis's eyes widened again.
“Our food”
Linn interrupted him, "Now that trade has been established, there is no need to worry about spending money but not making money."
Karis closed his mouth.
"In addition, those who have skills, let them use their abilities again." Linn pointed to the parchment, "This Negi will be assigned to Farr, and let the two of them study the waterwheel. I hope as soon as possible
Made.
As for the beekeeper, try to satisfy him as much as possible within his reasonable requirements."
Lin En looked at the tailors and had other ideas in mind, "We will go to Nezer's house later."
"Okay, you go make arrangements."
Karis bowed his head, saluted, and walked out.
Lin En continued to look at the parchment. To be honest, the quality of the serfs purchased this time was quite good. He did not expect that there would be so many people with skills, which greatly improved the basic system of the town.
With more people, he can gradually implement the plans he made before.
However, these people are still not enough. If he wants to speed up the process, he needs more serfs. Most of the serfs in Sheep Town have been bought by him. If he wants to continue buying, he will have to wait for some time or go to other towns.
Linn's fingers kept tapping on the table, thinking about how to increase the population.
Karis came back, "Master, it has been arranged. Those who have the skills, because they don't have the tools, I will let them cut down the trees first, and then let them come back after they have made them."
Linn nodded, approving Caris's arrangement.
"Let's go find Nezer."
Walking on the street, Linn suddenly asked, "Karis, do you think these free people who have mastered skills are willing to teach others their abilities?"
Karis replied, "No, because it means taking away their customers."
