Warlords: Rise From the Land of Doom

"This bastard, I really did not kill you wrong!" Narant really wanted to vomit three liters of blood. Naturally, he had never given such an order. This ration must have been issued privately by Anthony without telling him.

If he hadn't already killed Anthony, Narant would have to find him and kill him again to relieve his anger.

"Vivian, give him some food, don't eat too much, fill your stomach first!" Narant ordered, looking at the dying village chief.

Afterwards, the guards fed the village chief some food with water.

After a short rest, the village chief's face finally recovered a little, and he immediately knelt down and said again and again: "Thank you Lord Lord for the gift, Lord Lord, the villain knows he is wrong, please forgive the villain!"

"Get up! What's your name!" Narant waved his hand.

"Go back to the lord, the villain's name is Pete Boots!"

"Cough cough! This surname...a bit interesting...!"

Narant, who was caught off guard, almost choked, but all the surnames of serfs in this world are like this.

The elegant surnames belonged to the nobles, and serfs or commoners did not dare to use them.

For example, normal names such as Tulip or Berwick are reserved for nobles. As for serfs, they either don’t have them, or they can only use sticks, stones, and even cow dung.

Next, Narant asked for more details about Anthony's ration.

He wanted to get the food back, but according to Pete Boots, the food had already been shipped to the Barony of Quint next door.

The Baron of Quint, although it was Narant's nearest noble neighbor, it already belonged to the Earl of Black Iron, and it was also the only place where the residents of Stormwind usually bought their daily necessities.

And Anthony transported the grain over, obviously having exchanged the grain for money.

"Bastard!" Narant couldn't help yelling.

He learned from Pete that Anthony's raid was very thorough this time. There were about a thousand people in the entire Maiye Village, and the food left by all the villagers could only meet the rations for the next month.

But the problem is that it will take at least three or four months to get the next grain harvest.

"More than a thousand people, only enough for one month's ration!" Narant took a deep breath. This is bad news.

"Ding! System side quests, the serfs in Stormland are your private property. As a lord, you can't watch them starve to death. You have to find a way to let the serfs live for the next four months until the next time. Harvest!"

"Task reward: the appearance of the second lucky girl!"

Just when Narant was worried, the voice of the system came from his mind.

"Huh? The second lucky daughter?" Narant was stunned for a moment, but the appearance of this quest had dampened his anger a little.

Vivian's ability Narant has seen, and he is very much looking forward to the arrival of the second lucky daughter, so he is very happy to see the arrival of this task.

"Where is Anthony's residence?" Suppressing his thoughts, Narant began to get down to business.

He hadn't had time to get Anthony's belongings sorted, and now it seemed necessary to search his house.

"Go back to the Lord, that's the one!" Peter Leather Boots said, pointing to the only second-story building on the edge of the square.

Only then did Narant notice that it was the only stone-built house in Maiye Village. Although the surface was covered with moss, it was the most solid and luxurious existence in the village.

...

Two hundred catties of semolina flour, ten catties of fine wheat flour, fifty catties of bacon, one barrel of wheat beer, two catties of monster meat...

A set of silver tableware, five gold coins, thirty silver coins, and several copper coins...

Looking at the things the guards brought out of the stone house, Narant's face gradually darkened.

This bastard, Anthony, is even more nourished than him, and that monster meat needs a gold coin a pound.

In the original owner's memory, he only ate monster meat once, which was specially purchased by his baron father during the 16-year-old coming-of-age ceremony.

"Sir, except for a carriage in the backyard, everything in the stone house has been moved!" Quick and Vivian reported.

"Well, send five people to take these things back to the castle to Thomas!" Narant nodded and put down the silver spoon in his hand.

He had already been able to determine that this set of silver tableware was real, and it was very different from the set of silver-plated Xibei goods in his castle. This set of silver tableware was worth at least five gold coins.

And all the objects found in the stone house just now are worth at least fifteen gold coins.

The monetary system of this world is precious metals, 1 gold coin is equal to 100 silver coins, 1 silver coin is equal to 100 copper coins, and one gold coin is equivalent to the purchasing power of 10,000 yuan in the previous life.

It has to be said that although Anthony deceived the top and the bottom, the final loot was cheaper for him, and the system quest was triggered.

Soon, Quick arranged five guards to transport all the items back to the castle by carriage.

"Vivian, give Pete a silver coin and let him buy some food to eat first!" He had a general understanding of the situation in Maiye Village, and he needed to continue his inspection.

"Thank you Lord Lord for your gift!" Peter Leather Boots knelt on the ground again and kowtowed again and again, moved by this.

...

"Vivian, do you know how much a pound of wheat is?" After setting off again, Narant began to think about how to complete the task released by the system.

To keep the serfs from starving to death, Narant's only way now is to buy food.

There was not much food in his castle. When he came, he only loaded a carriage, which was only enough for the guards and him to eat for more than a month.

"Go back to your lord, if you go to the Baron of Quint to buy it, you need thirty copper coins per pound!"

"Well, it's so expensive?" Nalande was taken aback, thirty copper plates was equivalent to thirty yuan, and even if he didn't know much about the price of this world, Nalande felt that it was ridiculously high.

Seeing Narant's doubts, Vivian continued to answer, "My lord, Baron Quint has to collect taxes on the purchase and sale of goods by our serfs in the Storm Territory. Whether it is purchased or sold, there is three times the price difference, otherwise he will not be allowed. Let's go to the Barony of Quint to make a deal!"

"If it was purchased in other territories within the Tulip County, it should be ten copper plates per pound!"
