Release that Witch

263. Chapter 263 “Wheat is cooked”

    In the scorching sun, Seney Darley walks on the bank of the river with a straw hat to check the growth of the wheat.

    After nearly four months of planting, wheat is now almost mature.

    At first glance, I can’t see the marginal wheat field like a golden ocean. The wheat ears are thick and full, and the number of fruit is doubled. Even the head is bigger than any spring wheat he has seen before. There is no need to wait until the harvest is weighed, and Seney knows that this year must be a bumper year.

    There is no doubt that this must be the credit of the witch.

    He spent ten years with his father, and naturally knows what ordinary wheat should look like. One wheat is divided into one to three ears, and each ear can produce twenty or thirty fruits. Whether the soil is fertile or not does affect the size of the grain, but the number of the fruit that is cut by the wheat is doubled directly? He couldn’t think of other explanations besides witch.

    There are still many changes like this, such as the towering water tower in the small town – he has observed the giants up close, and manpower alone cannot carry a large iron bucket to the iron frame higher than the residential building, let alone They are almost all built overnight. Nowadays, the townspeople living in the community rarely need to carry their own buckets to fetch water. As long as the faucet is unscrewed, the cool well water will pour out of the pipeline.

    The same is true of the “small island” in the center of the Scarlet Water River. Since the ceremony was held at the Royal Highness, and Miss Nana was taken to the table, the use of the witch became more and more unobtrusive. Let a piece of land emerge from the empty river, which is obviously only possible with the witch.

    He had asked the City Hall Premier Minister Barov about the matter, and the answer was ignored. His Royal Highness Roland had his own ideas.

    AlrightAnyway, the royal family always loves to fight with Church. Even if the latter sends an army to attack the prince, he must win the First Army before he can speak. Otherwise, the Western Region can only be Roland Wimbledon’s Western Region.

    Isn’t Duke Ryan the best example?

    “Adult, you are coming,” two serfs weeding in the ground saw Seney Darley and immediately greeted them. “Look, this wheat field can be harvested right away, so, I want to ask you…”

    “Would you like to ask if the words made by the adult lord were effective?”

    “Right right,” the serf snorted nervously. “Can we really be promoted to a free person?”

    As the head of the Ministry of Agriculture, in addition to recording the best growing methods and statistical harvests, Seney also has an important responsibility: to communicate with the serfs and to present the policies of His Royal Highness and City Hall to them in a timely manner. Although he did not like the townships that dealt with the mud all day, Knight’s self-discipline still allowed him to fulfill his task.

    “Do you see those slogans?”Seney stretches his finger to the banner on the farmland side.

    “Adult, I…ReadThe serf smiled awkwardly.

    “Labor creates wealth, labor changes fate,” he said. “That is, if you work hard, you have the opportunity to be promoted to a free person. This is the promise made by His Royal Highness, and it will be realized.”

    “Yes, is it?” That’s great! ”

    “After becoming a free person, you can stay in the small town center, have your own brick house, and get the right to receive primary education. You don’t have to ask me if these slogans are What does it mean.”Seney repeated the corresponding promotional content.

    “Yes, adults.”The serf was excited and said, “The weather is hot. Do you want to sit in my shed and have a cup of cold water?”

    “No, go ahead.”He waved his hand and looked at the two men and bowed their heads for a long time before returning to the field to continue their busy work. This is the question that Seney has heard the most in the past month. No matter how they preach, they will always bother to ask again, for fear that the feudal lord will cancel the policy in the blink of an eye.

    I didn’t go far, and some people came up. “Hello, Seney, are these wheat harvested and dried, really only pay 70%?”

    He sighed in his heart. The number of occurrences was second only to “free person promotion”, ranking second. “This is true in the first year. It will only be less and less in the future. If you become a free person, only It is necessary to pay 20%, which is what we have repeatedly stressed.”

    “If you can really get promoted,” one of the tall men touched the back of the head. “The remaining 30% of the wheat, can we?”

    “Can only be used to sell to the prince, eat it yourself, or keep it.”Seney clap his hands and simply let them call the serfs around. “You listened well. Border Town banned private sales of food, whether it was sold to local townspeople or sold to foreign traders, and violated the Border Town law. If you do this, you will not only be confiscated, but you may also be imprisoned. ”

    “What if the feudal lord only offers a very low price?”The tall man muttered.

    “Of course, there will be no such situation. The acquisition of grain by His Royal Highness will be carried out in accordance with the stable market price. No serious change will be made in either the harvest or the harvest. So you don’t have to worry about buying wheat and then you can’t afford it, and you don’t have to worry about getting too much to sell or selling it at a price. ”Seney emphasizes, “The entire Border Town has only one place to sell food, and that is the convenience market, and the market manager is our City Hall.”

    “What is the price…?”

    “Reassure, Your Highness will announce to you personally before the acquisition.”

    Looking at the serfs scattered in twos and threes, he licked some dry lips and continued to check the crop situation. I don’t know that a few of these people will remember their words, but Barov has clearly conveyed the strong will of His Highness, and the smugglers will be severely punished.

    Just then, a young serf got out of the crowd and turned back and forth, “Adult,” he gasped. “I still want to ask you a question.”

    “Yeah?”

    “Do you know where Miss May and Ms. Irene have gone?”He hesitated. “There has been no drama performance in the square recently. I think…I will ask you about their current situation, is it…I got sick? ”

    This is a new and interesting question. Seney can’t help but raise her mouth. If they didn’t happen to see them at City Hall, they couldn’t answer them. “They went to Longsong Stronghold.”

    “Ah,” the other side showed a disappointed look. “Don’t they want to stay in Border Town?”

    “Just go to the stronghold theater show,” he shrugged. “And now the weather is so hot, can’t you bear to see them standing in the sun and sweating?” When they fall, they will continue to return to the square to perform new drama. ”

    “The original, it is like this…Thank you adults! ”

    Looking at the back of the young man’s disappointment, Seney couldn’t help but think of himself—from Knight to captive, then from prisoners to City Hall officials. These months of experience can be described by ups and downs. He didn’t want to go back to the Wolf Family’s territory, where there was nothing but a dilapidated house and a piece of wheat. It was just that Knight wanted to get rid of his father’s life.

    Not every Knight can be as beautiful as Morning Light, or as Duke Knight has the best territory and squire, now he pays more than a year, and there is plenty of room to rise. Maybe it’s time to take the parents to the small town, then marry a girl and enjoy life.
