The Amber Sword: Hundred and one scene Trentheim and young Thane (a) (first)
One hundred and one scene Trentheim and young Thane (a) (first)
There is no clue about finding Aouine Southern Legion. Mercenary sent to Grahár Mountain Ranges direction is either gone forever, or all the news brought back is useless.
Brando knows that those mercenarys sent out are not necessarily reliable.
The Mercenary that is in this collective is not everyone. They all have one mind: Fern, Kalun, and Jutta each have a one's own plan, and more people have a pass and pass mentality.
Some people sent out fled directly. In this case, Brando was not unaware, but he did not intend to take coercive measures. -- was useless.
Only those who truly stay with him and share their hardships are reliable.
Of course, Brando is not waiting to die. In the dark clouds that haunt the Trentheim from the direction of the Pallas, he arranges trusted people to go through the mountains through Shavren to continue to find Aouine Southern Legion Trace.
On the one hand, the building of the territory is also proceeding in an orderly manner --
The renovation of the city wall was finally completed at the end of the month of Moon of Hoar Frost. The construction period was nearly one week later than expected. The cost of -- was far beyond the expected. The only benefit was about the workers recruited to repair the city wall.
In the beginning, this thing was not as smooth as expected --
Because no one is willing to work for this young Thane whose name is not correct, Grudin Yu Wei still exists, not to mention the prestige of Count of Radnor is like a mountain in the heart of these bottom thrall.
The originally agreed Huairou policy ran into trouble almost immediately. The temptation of material conditions did not allow these people to overcome their fear of the old noble forces, or the fear of possible revenge.
Amandina soon realized that even if it was n’t for mercenaries *** around Fir City, or that the underlying thrall was also about the same fear of Brando, I am afraid that the large-scale escape has already begun.
After understanding this, the damsel finally understood the mistake she made. She had no choice but to use coercive means to make up for the mistake --. In order to ensure the construction period, Amandina even acted as a dog leg of noble. .
The girl personally took people to the outer city, drove out the residents who lived in thatched cottages, let them gather in the square, ordered the soldiers to send them tools, and then let them These mercenaries supervise their work.
Of course, although noble Young Lady already reduces the content of violence in it as much as possible, the violence in the supervision is still unavoidable, and the title "Devil Young Lady" soon spread in private.
The whole day passed through the coping of the workers and the resistance to the supervisor.
But this change in attitude comes from the end of the first day of work. What unexpected to everyone was --, the ‘devil Young Lady’, arranged for them a rich dinner.
dinner not only has rare white bread, but also stew broth --
Of course, those broths are actually not deserved. They are almost clear with only water and no meat. At a glance, they look like the pond -- in the mountains. So damsel can't help frowning when seeing the pot with meat, but this is not harsh Mercenary, the meat is obtained from the forest by mercenaries. Although there are many, it is not enough for so many people to share. .
She was a little worried that the workers would complain, but it turned out that things went completely beyond her expectations.
The refugees who live in slums all the year round can hardly walk when they smell the rich aroma of broth, and their eyes become brighter than the hungry wolf in the forest. -- In their opinion, white bread is already It is rare and delicious, and it is only possible to get a little during the festival or on an important day.
As for the meat, it's only at the end of the year, see if the Thane is in a good mood, and I can reward them with some residues.
As for ambiguity, there is no need to pay attention to already.
In fact, after seeing these workers gobbling, Amandina realized that he had made another mistake. She remembered that when she was embarrassed when she was at Bruglas, she could only eat a little black bread every day, let alone eat fishy fish.
Thanks to the power of dinner this time, damsel finally took the heart Stability down. She said that as long as she stayed on the construction site, everyone could eat such food every day.
This promise has caused a sensation in the crowd. Although the workers are dubious, most of them are willing to stay and see the situation. -- not to mention that even if they don't want to stay, those fierce mercenaries will help them make choices.
But their suspicions were quickly dispelled. The ‘Devil Young Lady’ fulfilled its promise and allowed them to eat a white bread and a small dish of stewed ‘thin’ soup every night.
The direct result of this is the rapid reduction of meat reserves in the warehouse -- because there are not many meat reserves in -- warehouses come from a small number of domesticated domestic animals in the territory, mostly mutton or pork, some already salted For quite a long time.
In the past, these meats were provided to Grudin and his subordinates to enjoy, but at this time, they were used to supply hundreds of people's daily consumption. Naturally, demand exceeded supply.
Flo complained to Amandina more than once, saying that she was consuming so much. It is estimated that when Brando returns, their Lord Thane will not be able to eat a meal.
This statement once touched Amandina. On the one hand, she was the youngest Lord Thane that heart admired. On the other hand, she was only a few workers from refugees. She was very important. The noble Young Lady would choose the former with almost no consideration.
But after thinking about it over and over, she finally insisted on one's own. She asked mercenaries to hunt -- in the forest as much as possible and even dropped daily training, just to supplement the meat consumption.
But this approach brought unexpected benefits. The workers gradually asked about the ‘Devil Young Lady’. To ensure their dinner and arrange people to hunt in the forest outside the city, -- hunted in the past Lord Thane's private hunting ground!
This approach once touched everyone, and even someone quietly asked Mercenary to tell her that she didn't have to spend so much. In fact, already is good with white bread every day.
Workers began to worry that the young Lord Thane would punish the kind and benevolent noble Young Lady.
But they did so to strengthen Amandina's confidence. Not only that, she then told the workers that -- told them that it was not her, but all that Lord Thane arranged, so they didn't have to worry about it at all.
Amandina used this little explanation to push all the credit to Brando, coupled with the young Lord Thane's previous tax relief initiative, which caused him to gain a very high reputation among these lower-level thralls. .
Of course Brando didn't know about it at that time, because youngster was dealing with mine affairs in Shavrend at the time, and it can be said that he was unaware of everything that happened in the territory.
In fact, Amandina did not realize at the beginning that these measures would be successful. -- She has never managed the experience of the territory, and some of them only had a few short discussions with Brando during the trip.
But soon she realized that she did nothing wrong.
Less than a week after starting to implement the corresponding countermeasures, someone asked her through Mercenary whether -- Lord Thane needed more manpower.
This is obviously a signal that her site already can attract more laborers to join. But it's not just that, it shows that between Yuwei of the old noble forces and the young and new Thane's prestige, someone from already started shake.
This is certainly a good sign.
But the only thing that regrets Amandina is that the good sign finally failed to recover the delay of the construction period. -- on the one hand delayed too much time on the one hand, on the other hand, none of them were really proficient in architecture and engineering.
The addition of Bolu masters may more or less restore some of their mistakes in manpower arrangements, but this kingdom forge master is not a real professional --. How might he create a Magic armor? Insights.
But it is definitely not repairing a section of -- on the wall
This dilemma did not change until the Odhum of the dwarf from Schafflund Mine. No matter how unreliable the old dwarf is, he has at least learned a little more or less from his fellow mountain dwarves.
After correcting a few of the original misconceptions, the repair process quickly accelerated, and until the end of the month, the completion was finally announced.
On the morning of completion, Amandina invited Brando, Medissa, Ciel and all the youngster confidants. She stood with the Scarlett and Romaine in the early morning mist, and quietly looked at the looming city wall standing in the early winter and the mist, and finally couldn't help the long breathed out.
But then she frowned slightly and looked back at Brando, who also looked in that direction, and apologized, "I'm sorry, Lord Thane, so much time was wasted --"
Brando glanced at this one's own Adviser, his eyes were full of appreciation.
He remembers that when he was at Bruglas, he was lucky because he could dig up a -- who would make Mana dredging device. This is undoubtedly more fun than picking up gold on the roadside.
But until today, he really realized that he was not only a treasure -- but also a priceless treasure.
Amandina is a very quiet girl, but there are also one's own insisting on -- Brando can see that this girl insists on her ideals and beliefs. --. He thinks he can do anything, can make such an outstanding girl wholeheartedly Do it yourself.
After returning to the territory, he already learned all the work of this damsel in detail. He was also worried that the Amandina of the unmanaged territory experience would encounter a lot of trouble --. He even expected that this city wall might not be until next month.
Month of Hibernation can only be repaired in the middle of the month. Although it is not a big trouble, it may cause some inconvenience after the first snow.
But Amandina gave him a big surprise. The damsel completed this quest / mission with his conscientiousness and meticulousness beyond his expectations.
Not only that, the performance of Bolu and Odhum also made him satisfied -- except that the old dwarf always performed a little daunting.
He looked at Amandina, smiled affirmatively, and nodded.
