"Hoo ho ho!"
Xiao Yaluo held up his legs, panting rapidly, and a large amount of sweat continued to fall from his forehead.
When his breathing calmed down, Xiao Yaluo remembered his knight breathing method, and immediately changed his breathing method, and his physical condition gradually improved.
Looking up at the street, Xiao Yaluo couldn't help but be stunned.
Although he has never been here in the past, he has often looked at it from the windows high up in the castle, so he is not unfamiliar with this place.
This town is built in a very standardized manner. They are all regular two-story buildings. The roads are also paved with bluestone. On weekdays, the faces of the residents of the town look very good. There has been a bumper harvest in recent days, so the town should be even more cheerful. right.
What's the situation now?
Why are there so many unkempt and disheveled people on the streets?
Xiao Yaluo looked carefully and found that there were old people, women, children, and even normal adult men with well-developed limbs.
In the corners of the houses in the small town, there are still some disabled people curled up.
In the middle of the road, there were several half-year-old children with thin and dirty faces. When they saw pedestrians passing by, they immediately bowed and stretched out their black palms.
They were more like robbing than begging. If anyone was slow to give money to passers-by, more and more children would surround them.
As for taking action?
The dirty-dressed adults around me were all looking at this side intentionally or unintentionally.
The small town that used to be quiet is now extremely chaotic.
Little Yaluo quietly stepped back. The situation in front of him was unclear. He was just a skinny and pitiful two-year-old child, and he could not take risks easily.
The black cat walked quietly to Xiao Yaluo and glanced at the streets of the town as if nothing had happened.
"Teacher Zhenma, do you know the situation here?"
Xiao Yaluo had some doubts. The reason why the black cat forced him to go here today was because he wanted to see this.
The black cat was licking his paws to clean up the stains from running just now. When he heard Xiao Yaluo's words, he raised his head casually and said lazily: "I don't have that free time. A few days ago, when your mother went out , and specifically told me that I was not allowed to go out at will."
Xiao Yaluo turned around and asked not far away: "Didn't anyone in the castle hear the noise? Why didn't anyone come over to handle the matter?"
Tap tap tap!
Sonorous footsteps approached immediately. Kabir walked over and explained in a low voice: "Master Yaro, no one in the castle is allowed to go out these days, so even if we know the situation in the town, it is inconvenient for us to come forward."
"Teacher Zhenma," Xiao Yaluo turned around and asked, "Would you like to live next to the latrine?"
The black cat raised his head warily, frowning and looking at Xiao Yaluo.
"What's the meaning?"
Little Yarrow pointed to the castle and said: "That's my home there, this town is my yard, and now, my yard is turning into a latrine."
"However, we are responsible for your safety, young master."
"Safety?" Xiao Yaluo sneered, "The town just around the corner has become such a mess, and you are still saying that you are responsible for my safety? Why don't you lock me in a small room and you all guard the door? "
"Don't worry, you all come together, I can protect Xiao Yaluo's safety, you just do what Xiao Yaluo says." Black Cat echoed, "What Xiao Yaluo said makes sense, who wants to What about living next to a latrine? Hmm... maybe wild dogs and the like can?"
Little Yaro looked at Black Cat in surprise. Although he had heard his mother say that Black Cat was very capable, he didn't expect her to be so arrogant.
Although he didn’t know whether she was really capable or was bragging, Xiao Yaluo didn’t want to step into danger. He led Kabir back and explained: “I think those in the town are ordinary people. You just need to Arranging a few well-armed knights and attendants is enough to suppress them."
A strong body is the key to activating the power of life. Want to become a knight without strong muscles?
Never dreamed of doing this!
Because of this, people with a little bit of experience, whether they have been trained as knights or not, can tell them apart from their appearance.
"There are at least a dozen knights and attendants in the castle. A few less will have no impact on the security of the castle, right?"
Kabir hesitated, "It won't have any impact, but if we really let them go out, I'm afraid they will be bribed and defeat us from the inside."
Xiao Yaluo couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Let’s not talk about whether the homeless people in the town have the capital to bribe them.
Just say that a few people went out together and were bribed in just half a day. This castle of theirs should have been breached long ago.
What's more, if there is such a person with evil intentions, letting him live in a small town not far from the castle for a long time is the greatest danger to himself.
Xiao Yaluo did not refute, but showed approval, nodded to Kabir and said: "So you must keep an eye on them to prevent them from showing evil intentions!"
It's not a bad thing for people around him to have this kind of crisis awareness, but it's a pity that Kabir is a little stupid and feels like he has trained his muscles in his head.
But...this kind of person is easy to control.
Walking to the training ground in front of the castle, Kabir immediately issued an order and began to summon the guards.
Xiao Yaluo quietly took a deep breath.
He never forgot the plans he had made as an infant.
However, whether it is developing martial arts or developing technology, one must have enough influence.
Any development direction is a change to the existing life. If any change does not see results and benefits, there will be no shortage of opponents.
Influence does not come for free. Identity is only a foundation. I need to lead them to do more practical things and make them trust me.
Although he is young now, this is even more of an advantage.
At this time, even if you make a mistake, your age is an excuse. Being able to be forgiven is a good time to practice.
And if you succeed, then you - you will be a 'born leader'!
This is the first battle to demonstrate command ability. It has important strategic significance for conquering the hearts and minds of the town, and its importance cannot be underestimated.
Young Yaro first asked Kabir: "How much food is there in the castle?"
"food?"
Kabir looked a little confused.
"The rations for us knights are all obtained from..." Kabir paused for a moment and said hesitantly, "We get them from outside. I don't know how much food there is in the castle. I may need to ask the chef."
Xiao Yaluo turned around and ordered: "Go and invite the chef over."
While waiting for the chef to arrive, Xiao Yaluo lowered his head and pondered, asking himself questions and sorting out his thoughts.
First of all, what is your main purpose?
Establish majesty and lay a foundation for future development.
The establishment of majesty must rely on force. In other words, just mobilizing a few guards may not be enough.
Xiao Yaluo frowned slightly, quietly looked around, and confirmed in a low voice to the black cat lying behind him: "Teacher Zhenma, even without these guards, are you sure you can protect my safety?"
The black cat raised his head and said with a faint smile: "Cowardly Yaro, I am very sure about this."
Xiao Yaluo decided in his heart, ignored the black cat's comments, lowered his head and continued to think.
Soon, Kabir came over in a few steps and announced: "Master Yaro, they have all arrived."
"Um."
Xiao Yaluo looked up at a group of strong men in the training ground. These guards were at least trainee knights. With this kind of force, they were enough to subdue all the refugees.
Little Yaro stood on the stone pier aside, raised his head, glanced around, and asked, "Did Kabir tell you what happened?"
"said."
"You told us on the way here."
"Uh-huh!"
The guards responded mixedly.
Xiao Yaluo nodded slightly.
"No matter what they do, just close the door and let's protect the young master."
A sudden word from among the guards immediately triggered a fierce dispute.
"You, a stray dog without a home, what do you know!"
"Don't make random insults. My home is also in that town, but Mr. Pahz summoned us to teach us to protect the safety of the young master, not for you to take care of yourselves."
…
Who is Lord Pahz?
Xiao Yaluo cast a doubtful look, and the guard immediately noticed it, lowered his head quickly, and returned a humble smile.
Forget it, it’s better not to see such a complicated person.
Xiao Yaluo looked away and shouted loudly: "Quiet!"
The guards were still arguing. Little Yaluo's young body was not enough to convince them.
Xiao Yaluo was not surprised by this. He still needed to work hard to establish his own prestige, but to humiliate his subjects to death, Kabir clenched his fists and knocked several people over. He shouted angrily: "Shut up!"
Seeing the people lying on the ground and wailing in pain, the guards had different expressions, but they finally became quiet.
Xiao Yaluo pretended to be a good person and quickly helped a few people up and comforted them casually.
He was still young at this time and could not leave a ruthless impression in the hearts of these guards who were protecting him.
After getting up, Xiao Yaluo said humbly: "I have some thoughts on this matter. If there are any mistakes, please correct me, uncle knights."
Having said that, Xiao Yaluo did not give them a chance to correct them.
After learning the amount of food from the head chef, Xiao Yaluo made a rough calculation in his mind and determined the daily rations for the refugees.
This amount will not make them starve to death, but it will also be difficult to eat enough.
But this is all temporary. Xiao Yaluo has already thought about the source of the knights' rations. He just needs to persist in getting through the current predicament.
In addition, Xiao Yaluo also began to make arrangements for those refugees.
First, use the power of guards to drive all the influx of refugees out of the town.
The space in the town is too small to accommodate so many people. Besides, it is still your own base, and you cannot let it get chaotic.
After the food arrives in the later stage, Xiao Yaluo is ready to launch a solution - work-for-relief!
The reason why work-for-relief is mentioned frequently is because it is so easy to implement and its effect is deeply popular.
He is also preparing to use the power of the refugees to do some infrastructure construction for the castle and lay some foundations for future development.
However, mighty virtue alone without compassion is not enough to conquer people's hearts.
The work-for-relief method is a bit like a transaction and is not enough to show your kindness.
Xiao Yaluo plans to take in refugee orphans. This is also to cultivate trustworthy people for his future development opportunities.
Of course, Xiao Yaluo will not forget the other refugees. He will arrange some manpower to build new houses on other vacant lands, not only to prepare for the future expansion of the town, but also to build for the refugees who plan to stay.
To do this, preliminary inspections are also indispensable.
Xiao Yaluo, who had been prepared for a long time, was very organized and arranged everything properly. The guards, who were still a little disdainful, were convinced and listened to Xiao Yaluo's instructions with peace of mind.
And all this was watched silently by the black cat standing behind Xiao Yaluo.
In his excitement, Xiao Yaluo didn't remember what he had forgotten.
