Chapter 510 The First Aboriginal Official

"Have you heard that Lao Jifei has received the Medal of Honorary Knight and has become a noble?"

"Don't talk nonsense. The honorary knight is just a reserve noble. It cannot be hereditary, and it is only an honorary title. But even so, it is much better than ordinary people like us."

"Tell me, how did the old chicken feather become an honorary knight? I heard that he will soon be in charge of 10,000 people. This is the total population of at least 20 tribes. In the past, tribes with a population of more than 10,000 people , that is the top big tribe here, we are definitely the overlord, we don’t even need to be afraid of Warcraft.”

At this moment, a large group of indigenous people were gathering together, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

"Give it all, Sir Ji Fei will soon choose the civilians under his rule. I must choose him this time."

"That's right. It's an honor to be able to follow Lord Ji Fei. Maybe I can become an honorary knight in the future."

An old man next to him shook his head and said, "I don't want to. I just want my grandson to become Ji Fei's apprentice and learn something about plants."

After hearing this, many people surrounded him. "Do you know something? I heard that Mr. Ji Fei became an honorary knight because he contributed some special plants. Our lord likes plants very much."

The old man had a mysterious smile on his face but said nothing: "As long as you tell me, I will give you a jar of fine wine that I have collected. Okay, two jars, that's all I have, no more."

These wines were not brought over from Hongshaling, but brewed by the local indigenous people. There is not much local food, and those who can make wine are big tribes. Therefore, fine wine is very precious here, especially those old wines that have been stored for a long time, which are even more priceless here. When the old man heard this, his saliva flowed out involuntarily.

"Well, let me tell you, my son was working there at the time. Originally, the things Jifei sent did not attract the lord's attention. But then Jifei said something about the life-saving wood."

"What? Lifesaving tree, yes, why did I forget this? This is a very strange plant."

Many people's faces were full of annoyance. Everyone in the Life-saving Tree knew it because they or their ancestors were saved by the Life-saving Tree when they came to this island.

They are very familiar with the life-saving wood, and are full of gratitude, but also full of resentment. If the life-saving tree could leave the island, he would leave through the life-saving tree tomorrow morning, so everyone subconsciously forgot about it.

This is something that everyone knows, but no one has ever talked about it, so it’s time for an old man to talk about it. "This chicken feather is really lucky. If I had thought of it earlier, I would have said it. But is this thing really that useful?"

"Yes, old man, we all know what a life-saving log is. Is it really useful? I think it is worse than an airship."

The old man had a mysterious smile on his face. When people around him saw this smile, they immediately understood that this was for some benefit. So several people looked at each other and took out the benefits one after another. Soon the old man had a bunch of things in front of him.

The old man looked satisfied, wrapped the things in a piece of cloth, then waved, and everyone gathered around.

The old man lowered his voice and said, "Let me tell you, this life-saving tree has been studied to calm and control water flow, so this thing is used in the water, not in the sky."

"Then it's still useless. Even if it can be used in water, I think it's not as good as the one in the sky."

"Shut up and listen to what the old man has to say, or I'll beat you up."

"If you have the ability, do it. Try it here and see if the patrol will look for you."

Chinan's regulations do not allow violence within the city. Some people who were disobedient in the past are now being put in prison cells for forced labor. It is said that the most unlucky person was Guan Xiaoheiwu, and many people almost collapsed.

"Okay, just stop talking. Old man, keep talking, we are all listening."

The old man continued: "I have inquired about it. That kind of wood is very light, it seems to be lighter than water. The lord said that this kind of life-saving wood is the best material for making ships."

"Our airship is very powerful, but the output is limited and the production speed is very slow. Besides, ordinary people like us can't all use airships. In the future, if we want to communicate with other surrounding islands, we will not need to use ships."

Now everyone understands. "It turns out that this is a plan related to the entire Island Alliance. No wonder it has such great benefits. After receiving the medal of honorary knight, I might be able to become a lord one day."

"Hey, what is this Lord? Is it also a title?"

The person who spoke before rolled his eyes: "You guys are really uneducated. Knight is an honorary position and cannot be hereditary. It is regarded as a noble reserve. Lords are real nobles, but they have no territory. Starting from baron, they are real nobles with territory." It’s just that the territories are generally not large, and they are often placed in remote places where there are no people.”

He was talking about the situation in the surrounding kingdoms and the three major families. He didn't know that the situation on the mainland was even more severe than here. Most nobles do not have territories because there are too many nobles.

"Shut up, Lord Ji Fei is here." At this moment, a voice in the distance remembered, and the people in the middle suddenly moved out of the way. Dressed in pitch-black chicken feathers and dressed meticulously, he walked over.

That's right, it's meticulous. At this time, Ji Mao is no longer wearing animal skin, but a formal armor. This is an armor made of red sand steel, and the surface is polished like a mirror.

From a distance, it is majestic. Compared with those fancy noble costumes, the natives here still like armor, because armor is more suitable for fighting.

Such precious armor can be regarded as a family heirloom in their eyes. Look at the spider tanks following next to them. Those who have seen the power of spider tanks are even more amazed.

Behind the old Ji Mao is his own tree man, the eagle hair who came here first. But the eagle hair is nodding and bowing now, with a flattering look on his face. The rapid change of the status of the two people is really eye-catching.

From a distance, Old Muka looked at the scene here and nodded silently: "Your Excellency is right. We should promote some useful natives and let them manage themselves. This will make it easier for them to integrate into us and also easier to divide them. In the future, for the sake of status and merit, these natives should have no time to think about other things."
