Chapter 48 Lily, Pompeii (Second Update)

The two exchanged pleasantries, and Luther expressed his thoughts. Old Bob was stunned after hearing this, and then said generously: "Isn't it just recruiting apprentices? Okay. But there are two points, please don't mind, Master Luther."

Old Bob answered this, and Luther was slightly stunned.

Because he guessed that with Old Bob's character, teaching apprentices should not be too high a priority. But unexpectedly, Old Bob agreed so readily.

Things went smoothly, and Luther was of course very happy. He nodded and said: "Uncle Bob, just tell me if you have anything."

"One is that blacksmithing is a very hard job, and it is very strict with apprentices. Just like me, Old Bob, I will scold my sons when they are learning. Don't mind this. The other is that Old Bob plans to open up the fields next year and be a great farmer. I am afraid he will not have time to teach apprentices. But Master Luther, don't worry, Old Bob's skills have been passed on to his sons, and they are qualified to take apprentices."

Old Bob said.

In fact, Old Bob should have hidden a little. When he taught his son, he didn't just scold him a few times, sometimes he would even slap him a few times.

Although Luther said just now that those apprentices were serfs.

But Old Bob still thought it would be better to explain the situation first. Blacksmithing is very hard, and learning blacksmithing is even harder.

After listening to it, Luther felt relieved and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal. If those young people don't listen, just beat and scold them at will. Just pay attention to the degree. Flesh injuries are okay, but don't make internal injuries or something. As for Uncle Bob, you want to be a farmer, I won't stop you."

Old Bob was relieved and patted his chest.

"Okay, Master Luther, don't worry, I will tell my sons when I go back."

"Okay. Then Uncle Bob, you continue to look at the forest and think about the land reclamation. I'll go back first." Luther also nodded and got on the horse.

"Okay." Uncle Bob nodded.

Then, Luther rode his horse and returned to the castle with his entourage and guards.

Very happy.

Because in recent times, the development of Pompeii is almost like this.

Recruit guard knights.

Recruit people.

Eliminate serfs and train some serf boys as carpenters, blacksmiths and other professionals.

Enclose a part of the field as the city center of Pompeii, that is, a small city. Of course, there are some finishing works, but the big things are almost done.

The next step is to wait for the recruited population to arrive one after another.

Thinking of this, Luther was naturally very happy.

Although the developed city will not be too big, it is at most a small town with a small territory of about 12,000 people.

But you have to eat one bite at a time, just take it slowly.

When Luther came back, it was already past lunch time. But it doesn't matter, as the heir of a knight lord family, of course he can't go hungry.

Luther asked old Ferran to tell the kitchen to prepare a big steak, some bread, vegetables, and cook a small stove. After dinner, it was done.

After dinner, Luther planned to go down for knight training. Before that, Luther had to change into training clothes. It was simple. He just called his personal maid, Maya, to come over.

"What color training clothes do you want?" Maya came quickly in round-toed leather shoes, clacking, and asked.

Luther said, "Black."

In fact, it doesn't matter. When you sweat more, you can take off your training clothes and practice with your bare chest.

"Okay." Maya nodded seriously and turned away. Soon, another round of clacking footsteps sounded.

Luther showed helplessness on his face. Relying on knight-level hearing, two troubles came. Not long after, two little loli appeared in front of Luther.

Both lolita looked six or seven years old, and both had blonde hair. They looked slightly different, but they were equally delicate and had a pair of big watery eyes.

Even the clothes they wore were the same style, white dresses, as if they were two princesses walking out of the castle.

Haha, speaking of which, this is indeed a castle, Pompeii Castle.

These two lolita are sisters. But the blood relationship is quite distant.

The slightly taller one is Luther's sister, Mary Pompeii.

The slightly shorter one is Stone Pompeii's daughter, Lily Pompeii.

But don't say it, Lily Pompeii is a little lolita who is very vindictive and very concerned about her height.

Because they are of the same clan and are about the same age, the two little girls play together. Mrs. Sophie likes Lily very much, so she specially prepared the same clothes for the two lolita.

By the way, because Knight Stone went out to do business, Lily was temporarily taken care of by Mrs. Sophie, and she is currently living in the castle.

"Hi, Luther."

Lily greeted Luther first, then blinked her big, flickering eyes and looked Luther up and down.

This made Luther a little nervous, this little guy is not easy to mess with.

He loves to play pranks.

"Luther." Mary wanted to be more straightforward and called out.

This sister was not cute at all. She chattered all day long and treated her elder brother like an equal friend, without any respect at all.

On the contrary, Luther liked William among the three siblings. He was a taciturn, honest and reliable younger brother.

"Hey Lily, and Mary, what are you two doing here?" Luther said hello with a bit of a smile, and then asked.

"I'm fine. It's Lily. She wanted to do knight training, but Uncle Stone refused. So I wanted to ask you, can you teach her how to do knight training?"

Mary came to Luther's bed very familiarly and sat down, took off her little leather shoes, and made a rolling ball on the bed.

"Luther, can you teach me?" Lily asked cutely, blinking her big eyes, but there was a dangerous light in her eyes, as if to say, you refuse to try.

There were threads on Luther's forehead. This little guy was vindictive and stingy. He was not a fuel-efficient lamp. If he didn't agree today, he might play a prank tomorrow.

It made him jump all over the place.

A smile appeared on Luther's face, as if he was a fox that had become a spirit. Then he nodded and simply agreed: "Okay."

"Really?" Lily looked surprised.

"But you have to wait until you are eight years old, because it is not good to train as a knight at a young age, and your future achievements will be limited. After countless generations of research, it is most perfect to start training as a knight at the age of eight."

Luther quickly changed the subject and said.

Luther didn't lie to Lily, it only made sense to start knight training at the age of eight. Luther didn't agree with Lily's desire to become a knight, but he didn't object either.

There are female knights in this world, and many of them are very powerful beings.

But Knight Stone doesn't intend to teach Lily, there must be his reasons. And Luther didn’t have time to spare for this little loli, so he might as well forget it.

Lily is six and a half years old this year, and it will be a year and a half before she turns eight.

Who still remembers today’s promise?

Children are easy to deceive.

"Okay, then Luther, you must teach me when I am eight years old." When she heard that she would have to wait until eight years old, Lily was disappointed for a moment, but then she cheered up and said seriously.

"Of course." Luther promised confidently.
