The adults had already passed by the door before this old man finally came out.
Even if the priests and barons here are considered equal rulers by the Papacy, this is still far too opportunistic.
Zi Yi glanced at Li Mosi.
Seeing that his master did not speak, he waved to Aisong.
"Then you should follow too."
If the old guy wants to come along, then let him come along.
"OK."
Aison nodded slightly, glanced at Tritan and Calbin, and walked to a short distance behind Limos and the other three.
He was accompanied by a young man carrying a bronze bell.
Upon seeing the bronze bell, the saintess leaned slightly towards Li Mosi and spoke.
"That bell was used to summon the people."
Whenever she inspected the nobles' lands, church members would ring a small bell to gather the people.
Li Mosi took out something and gently touched Hagi Saint.
"What about mine?"
The saintess felt the hard texture, her body trembled, and she looked down.
It was a small horn with silver rings and carved decorations at the front and back openings.
When did the craftsman take this?
She was puzzled, but she still spoke up.
"This is also for summoning the people, but it's for the lord."
Li Mosi nodded.
This was something he had found on the butler earlier, and he casually put it in his pocket.
Putting the horn back into his pocket, Li Moss beckoned to the young man next to the pastor.
"Hey kid, come here."
The young man and Ai Song exchanged a glance, and only after Ai Song nodded did he dare to step forward with the bronze bell in his arms.
As soon as he arrived, Li Mosi grabbed the bronze bell and threw it onto the carriage.
Good guy.
This thing weighs at least 20 pounds!
"Eh!"
The young man seemed surprised that he would do this, and paused for a moment before reaching for the bronze bell.
Then his hand was grabbed by Zi'an.
"What are you doing?"
Zi'an's tone was calm, but it made the young man afraid to speak.
Li Mosi looked at the young man and spoke.
"Go back. You are not to use this bell without my permission."
The young man was somewhat at a loss.
He tried to pull his hand back, but failed.
He only withdrew his hand after Zi'an released it.
The young man glanced at Li Mosi, then at Zi'an, and quickly turned and ran back to Ai Song's side.
He whispered something, but Aison just shook his head.
The group continued forward and soon left the town's boundaries.
When the group arrived, they didn't notice any obstacles, but when the vehicles and horses needed to pass, the problems with the originally flat ground and adequate dirt road became apparent.
Although the twelve manors within Baron Stern's territory are not deliberately separated by roads like those between Valos and the two surrounding knightly territories, there are still dirt roads between them.
But the road is in terrible condition.
It was narrow and uneven.
The road was covered with all sorts of footprints and mud, making it even more uncomfortable to walk on than in the forest.
Coupled with the fact that the caravan was only wide enough for two carriages to pass side by side, the convoy that had just left the town was squeezed into a much thinner shape, just like dough being squeezed by a dough press.
Keep in mind that this is just outside the town, and the surrounding area is still farmland.
But the road is only wide enough for one car and a row of people standing on each side.
The woodland not far ahead was even more spectacular, with a dirt road just wide enough for a horse-drawn carriage to pass through.
Li Mosi took out strips of coarse wool cloth from the car and began tying them to the trees on both sides of the road.
Calbin moved closer to Li Moss.
"Sir, let me help you."
Tritan hesitated for a moment, then ultimately did not step forward.
How could Calbin do such a thing?
Does he think of himself as a servant?
It's rare to see a middle-aged manager with a sense of crisis in this day and age.
Li Mosi casually handed him half of the cloth strip.
"Go to the other side and tie a strip of cloth to each tree that is next to the dirt road."
Calbin nodded.
"Yes, my lord."
He immediately turned around, cut in front of the convoy, and went to the other side to start working.
"call--"
Does this mean the adult has accepted him?
……
Although the roads were difficult to travel, the distance between the manors was not long.
The convoy soon arrived at the manor on the west side of the town.
After glancing at the map of [Leshan Water], Li Mosi sounded the horn.
woo~~~
The sound of a small horn is not as loud as that of a large horn, but it is still very penetrating.
Li Mosi blew the horn for ten seconds, then put it back.
He opened the [Leshanshui] map and spoke to his two disciples.
"Ziyi, Zian. I'll tell you about the situation in this territory first, then you can decide for yourselves how to arrange for your people..."
Before long, the first group of people gathered in front of the convoy.
They were all carrying tree branches, looking like they had come to the woods to collect firewood.
"There are goblins!"
"Goblin?"
The first child to run over saw the green figure, which was about the same height as him, dropped the firewood, and turned to run away.
But several tribesmen carrying spears immediately stood out from the woods on both sides.
"Don't you dare escape!"
"Gather in the past!"
This scene would occur once every time no new people were approved to come.
And so, everyone in the manor gathered together.
Besides people, there were also many livestock.
After all, at this stage, there's almost nothing else to do besides gathering firewood for fertilizer and repairing houses.
The people cautiously observed their kinsmen surrounding them.
The leaders standing at the front observed the convoy.
At the very front of the procession were six people whose clothes were somewhat neater.
Four of the six were soldiers carrying spears, one carried a short hunting bow and was both a hunter and the head of the manor, and the other carried a short whip and was the swineherd.
Unlike other inhabitants, they were not afraid; they were more puzzled and curious.
Besides feeling puzzled and curious about the tribespeople, they also felt puzzled and curious about Li Mosi and his three companions, and even more so about the three managers, Ai Song and his team, as well as the row of small buckets placed between them and the caravan.
Zi Yi already had a general understanding of the people from Li Mosi.
He had just personally inspected the number and condition of his subjects, and now he had a clear understanding of their situation.
After looking at the now quieted-down citizens, Zi Yi spoke.
"The Stern family has vanished..."
He fully demonstrated what it means to "make a living with just one trick".
Although he didn't quite understand the elements in the speech, such as declaring a change of sovereignty, using suffering to evoke empathy, and promising benefits.
But he knew that his master's trick was very effective.
As long as there is even one person in the community who hasn't heard of it, this kind of talk can be used.
Even without Calbin leading the way, the people still expressed their gratitude.
Regardless of whether the food is good or bad, as long as there is enough food, we can reduce the amount of food we consume at home.
This is absolutely great news!
Besides, with the three adults standing there, how could they possibly refuse the new lord?
"Now, let's eat."
As Ziyi gave the order, the tribespeople lifted the lids of the wooden barrels, and the aroma of oil and meat wafted out, making the gratitude of the leaders even more sincere and fervent.
"There's meat in it!"
"Quickly thank the master for his kindness!"
"I smell milk?"
"Thank you, Goblin-sama!"
They were all tightening their belts to prepare for winter, but they never expected to be able to eat meat!
This isn't a day for begging for favors, is it?
The new lord is too kind!
The people quickly lined up in front of the buckets.
Although they didn't bring any bowls, Li Mosi had prepared three hundred ceramic bowls in advance.
However, after they lined up, Ziyi did not immediately call the clansmen to get their food.
He spoke casually.
"Is someone from your family still waiting?"
Some of the residents froze.
Zi Yi just watched them like that.
"You must not deceive me."
