Chapter 518 Loyalty
Chapter 527 Loyalty
"Hello? Are you recruiting people here?" A voice like the sound of nature interrupted Olaf's sleep. He instantly became energetic and quickly opened his eyes to look.
"Do you want to sign up?" Olaf looked at the strong man in front of him. He must be a good player whether he is a soldier or a farmer!
"The settlement fee is one gold coin, and the land and farm tools are distributed for free!" Olaf added.
"That's okay, I'll sign up!" The man patted his chest and said with a smile.
"So what's your name? By the way, are you the only one?" Olaf asked, taking out a charcoal pencil and a notebook bound with papyrus.
"Little White, of course not! My family will also come together! Their names are..." Little White gushed.
"My family has followed the King's Landing family for generations..." Little White kept talking. It was obvious that they were also among the original batch of refugees.
"Then welcome home!" Olaf extended his hand in welcome.
…
Soon people came to sign up. In one day, Olaf gathered more than two hundred households (nearly a thousand people) to watch the sunset. Olaf stretched, carefully put away the Lion of King's Landing flag, and then headed toward the rapids. Walk to the city's castle.
…
"Your Highness, the envoy of the Duke of King's Landing wants to see you!" the guard whispered to Roland.
"Huh? Let him in!" Roland, who was chewing dry bread, said casually, spraying the crumbs.
"Yes!" The guard nodded and left softly.
"Dear Your Highness Roland, I wish you good health! On behalf of Your Highness the Duke of King's Landing, I would like to offer my loyalty to you!" Olaf said as he knelt down on one knee, stroking his chest.
"Hey! Olaf is a fool! Pingshen, Pingshen! Is the Duke of King's Landing okay?" Roland asked.
"It's not bad." Olaf said honestly after thinking about it.
"Come here to recruit people?" Roland looked at Olaf and asked.
"Well, His Highness is very grateful to you after hearing about your decision. At the same time, due to the season, he immediately sent me to recruit people to prepare for migration!" Olaf nodded. After all, there is time for spring plowing.
"It's just early spring, you still have time." Roland thought that a month would be enough for them to take care of their family.
"Well, at the same time, we hope to hire your caravan as an escort..." Olaf made a request. After all, it is not easy for those old, weak, women and children to walk through. The escorts of the Lagrand Royal Caravan are very good.
"Well, the caravan consists of ten caravan hired knights, fifty caravan hired guards, and two hundred men! It is indeed the best choice for escort. So how much does Apophis Breo plan to pay?" Roland He nodded, his brother Ming settled the score, there is no problem in helping, but it cannot be free. And the two hundred caravan guys who picked up weapons became qualified light infantry!
"His Royal Highness Apophis Breo is willing to use a protective curse as a reward!" Olaf said respectfully. This was what Apophis Breo had told him beforehand. The Junlin family does not lack wealth, but it lacks people!
"Okay, it's settled! You can go find Ruel yourself, and he will cooperate with you!" Roland threw him a token with a dragon pattern on it.
"Your Highness... the reward may have to be delivered to you by Mr. Ruel before it can be cashed in. After all, I didn't bring it with me..." Olaf said with some embarrassment.
"It doesn't matter." Roland waved his hand. It was just a little cleverness that Apophis Breo was trying to avoid because he was afraid of finding fault. After all, plundering the population of a noble was no less than cutting off the roots of a noble, not to mention poaching the king... But Roland was not that boring. , since he decided to help the Junlin family restore its glory, as long as the Junlin family chooses to be loyal, the royal family will not betray the loyal nobles.
"Thank you for your generosity! The villain has resigned." Olaf bowed respectfully and left.
"Yun Feng! Check how many of my people he poached today?" Roland said lazily to the side.
There was a ripple in the air next to him. It turned out that Yun Feng had been sitting nearby and was just hiding it with magic.
"Almost a thousand people, more than 200 households have been registered!" Yun Feng waved his hand.
"There aren't many people!" Roland was surprised. He thought that the reputation of the Junlin family would attract at least a few thousand people!
"There are only a few people who are loyal to the Duke of Junlin. I estimate that at most two thousand people are in good form." Yun Feng shook his head. The Junlin family currently has nothing to attract the people. They have no other advantages except loyalty. However, they are loyal to After all, the people from the royal family have the absolute advantage.
"Let them go, they are all our own people anyway." Roland smiled. There was no need to engage in excessive intrigues with the nobles who were loyal to him. Appropriate beating and wooing were okay. Being too harsh would only alienate each other. At this moment, Roland was completely Look like you're letting go and do whatever you want! Give you the opportunity to recruit people on a large scale, but only this time! In the future, the population will depend on whether the people are willing to move far away.
"I'm more worried about the safety of the undead and Ajax than this." Roland frowned.
"You underestimate the dragon knight general." Yun Feng shook his head meaningfully at Roland. Although Roland was also a serious dragon knight at the moment, a certain dragon ate and slept all day, and slept and ate! Roland didn't have the chance to ride on the dragon's back for a few times. What made Roland think it was nonsense was that Doss didn't like to change into a riding body. He preferred to shrink himself into a house cat size on Roland's head. This made Roland There is a feeling that I am not a dragon knight but a dragon knight...
"This day is almost over..." Roland became more and more anxious as he looked at the sky.
"Calm down Roland!" Nyx came over and rubbed Roland's shoulders. Roland enjoyed guarding his body, but there was still a bit of worry in his eyes.
"Don't worry about them, they are adults and have their own judgment..." Nyx said with relief.
"Sir! I'm back!" Suddenly Kaslo pushed open the door and rushed in as if he was here.
"F*ck!" Roland was so frightened that he jumped three feet high. Unexpectedly, he thought someone had evil intentions!
"Don't you know how to knock on the door?" Roland said with lingering fear. If anyone suddenly appears in front of you unexpectedly, you will be frightened half to death.
"That's not the point! Dang Dang Dang!" Kaslo took out an iron box and placed it in front of Roland as if he was taking credit.
"So?" Roland tilted his head in confusion.
"Damn it! Lich Phylactery! Where did you come from?" This time it was Yun Feng's turn to jump up.
The lich's phylactery is very precious! It is a carrier that specifically stores the soul of a lich. An immortal lich will die as long as it destroys the phylactery, so this lich... is still alive!
"Shouldn't lichs always hide their life boxes? How did you find them?" Yun Feng knew lichs very well and was a wise man after all.
"Ajax and I worked together to destroy an army of the undead! The lich commanded by it was killed by us on the spot, leaving only this one!" Kaslo pointed to the phylactery.
"Idiot..." Yun Feng twitched the corner of his mouth. It was rare for a lich to not hide its life box. After all, it couldn't be resurrected without this thing.
