Chapter three hundred and eighteen: appease
As expected, at a construction site on the south wall, Li Ran found the old village chief Molga. In just a few days, the old village chief's face was full of folds. The face that had been calm when facing Manniuqiu was replaced by anxiety and fatigue. A wooden stick in his hand was leaning on the ground full of mud, which made Li Ran no longer find the shadow of the staff.
If it were not surprising, the level of this staff must be not low. Li Ran couldn't help feeling a little sad when he saw this, and at the same time he was relieved that he had such a dedicated village chief in his territory...
"Except for the escorts, everyone else stopped working and went back and had a good rest!" Although he wanted to build city defense as soon as possible, it was not a solution to tired construction like Molga. As the lord, Li Ran looked at the villagers around him and shouted loudly.
The sudden shouts made the villagers who were under construction stop their work. After seeing that it was the lord who spoke, they immediately burst into cheers, but most people still looked at the old village chief Molga habitually.
Morga also saw Li Ran returning at this time. He knew that Li Ran was going to prepare the materials and his eyes lit up. However, after hearing Li Ran's shouts, he immediately came over to express his disagreement: "Lord! The other three directions have been built, and only this side is enough to complete the preliminary defense system. How can I rest at this time? Give me two more days and I will definitely be able to build this place!"
Looking at the villagers who were still holding tools in his hand, Li Ran couldn't help but frown, but the next moment he stretched his brows and looked at Molga with a smile and said, "I can understand my mood. As the village chief who used to be these people, I definitely hope to build this place as soon as possible so that everyone can be safer as possible!"
Li Ran then faced the surrounding villagers and said loudly: "But you also need to check the physical condition of these people. Can you guarantee that our people will not fall down next moment? Although I just became the lord, I will never allow my people to be exhausted!"
The old village chief Molga hurriedly said, "I don't mean this!"
Li Ran suddenly reached out to interrupt his words, looked at the villagers around him with a serious look and said, "As the lord, I ordered to put down the tools in my hand and go back to rest. I will be stationed here in person tonight. Unless I step on my body, no creature can disturb my sleep!"
While speaking, Li Ran used the authority of the lord to recall all the low-level iron golems and guards, summoned 30 ninth-level sulfur steel golems again, and summoned two Maruke warriors in one breath, including the three lamp gods of Topol, as well as the two eleventh-level ** divisions Wolson and Sanchez, and the captain of the Zeriramo Orc who had reached the thirteenth level. In addition to the several th divisions and goblins who had stayed here before, Li Ran gritted his teeth and directly used the authority to summon troops to the limit, and at this time the number of soldiers carrying reached an astonishing 50.
At this moment, not only the villagers took a breath of coldness as they looked at the tall sulfur steel golemnly shining in the sunset. Even Doric and the old village chief Molga flashed with each other's eyes, which were staring at each other with the old village chief Molga.
At this time, the captain of the Zerramo Orc, whose name is somewhat similar to that of the old village chief Morga, was carefully looking at the surrounding environment. Since the brief fight with Li Ran, the orc's gaze has become less arrogant. On the contrary, there are more praises to Li Ran, the temporary owner. This is the case with orcs who advocate force. They do not know how to pity and sympathize with the weak, but they will respect or even fear the strong enemies. Moreover, the prophet had already told him before he came here. He must find a basis for the reproduction and development of his own race.
I don’t know if it was because of the touching, or Li Ran’s unquestionable tone, or because of the tall and strong body of the ninth-level sulfur steel golem, gave the villagers confidence. In short, as Li Ran finished saying that, some villagers slowly put down the tools in their hands, and as the first person threw away the tools, the others also threw away the tools.
"Lord! Lord!" Just as Li Ran was about to deliver some food to the villagers from the storage space, neat and dull slogans slowly echoed throughout the village like springs coming from the ground, making Li Ran's heart tight.
Next, Li Ran asked Dorik to help distribute some food to the villagers, and at the same time personally comforted Morga. As a lord, Li Ran knew very well how lucky it was to have a subordinate like Morga in his hand. He could suppress it if he had too high reputation, but it would be bad if he hurt his heart.
Based on this idea, Li Ran chatted with him for about half an hour, and took him a tour of the newly built village for an hour or two. Finally, Li Ran personally sent it to the doorstep of his house and must pay attention to rest. It can be said that he would do his best to the younger generation.
Of course, some people couldn't stand Li Ran's actions. Sanchez, the eleventh-level master, was the first to show dissatisfaction. In his opinion, Molga was just an old villager. Li Ran treated him so enthusiastic and even flattered him. Sometimes he didn't hesitate to neglect them and wanted to please the other party. This was simply an insult to a master. If it weren't for the orders from the tower master Kunasoyed, he might have been angry long ago.
However, when Li Ran leaned over and said a few words in his ear, the eleventh-level ** master stopped talking and just looked at Li Ran with a questioning look, who just smiled and nodded at him.
Next, Li Ran did not forget the promise just now, returned to the place to watch all the villagers leave the unbuilt city wall, and then left behind with all the troops alone. Except for a few monsters, Li Ran ordered them to go back to rest. During these days, these monsters were also used by the village chief and did not have to be relaxed. Fortunately, although they are of low-level troops, their physical fitness is much better than ordinary villagers. Although they are a little tired, most of them have no problems with their health. I believe that as long as you sleep well for a night, you will be able to live a life again tomorrow.
"Master Dorik, you should go back early to rest. If something really happens, I will ring the bell!" Li Ran looked at Dorik behind him and said, "On a slope that had not yet been built into a city wall."
Doricken said nothing. He had too many questions and too many expectations for the lord who had just arrived.
He was almost fifty years old, actually not just an ordinary family in the imperial capital as he said. His family history can be traced back to the time when the first emperor was in power three hundred years ago. His uncle, as one of the commanders of the most famous legions of the empire, was naturally extremely powerful. He was also obsessed with the various legendary experiences his uncle told him since childhood, so he chose to run away from home in his prime and join the mercenary group to live a life of unyielding and licking blood from the knife.
Looking back now, that period was also his happiest day. Every day, he drank the strongest wine with his teammates, went to the most dangerous places, watched the most beautiful scenery, fought against the most powerful creatures, met with the most beautiful women, and some of the most exciting things happened.
However, the prosperous past was ruthless, a stupid opinion, a wrong decision, a doomed task, and a battle with huge strength. It made all the once extremely close comrades-in-arms become souls of another world, and also made him lose the fighting spirit with Molga and lose the weather vane for advancement.
The person in front of him was obviously too old than him, but he felt a long-lost fighting spirit from him. At first he thought it was just an illusion, but after seeing the building complex planned by the lord, he became more convinced of his feelings.
Because of his unique eyesight, he saw that the architectural drawings planned by the lord had great expansion space. Take the current city walls as an example. Once the villages and towns expand in the future, they can be strengthened and strengthened into inner cities. You must know that this is a standard that can only be set by some medium and large cities. If you say it is just a coincidence, I am afraid that ghosts will not believe it!
After thinking for a long time, Rick still didn't know what to do. He had to chat with Li Ran for a few words and hurriedly left the city wall. He still had some things to do. This year's taxes will be paid soon. The village suffered such losses, so it would be impossible to submit them in full. As a clerk, when he didn't want to rely on the family power, he had too many links to worry about to reduce the amount paid to the lowest level. Who made it so much blood of his comrades back then?
