Carefree Path of Dreams
v1 Chapter 670: condition
As a village chief, how much strength does the Cavaliers have?
Fang Yuan slightly estimated that there may be a hundred serfs and civilians under the command of the Qola Knight, which is already quite a lot.
If it is exhausted and fished, it is possible to draw up 100 adult males to fight. Of course, the location cannot be used for a day's journey. After all, these are labors. Once they are far away from production activities, the next year will inevitably encounter famine.
"Therefore, there are only 20 people who can keep standing, and according to the principle of five households, they can not damage the people's power..."
"As a vassal of the superiors, the knights have their own horses, equipment, and obedience every year, and they are obliged to fight for 30 days without compensation. If there is no more than this, they will be able to collect their own spoils... And the obligations of the Qola Knights clearly stipulate that the militia can never be less than fifteen..."
Although there is no formal inheritance, Fang Yuan has undoubtedly taken the entire knight as his own.
After all, under the system at this time, even the prince of the higher level of the Qola Knight has no right to take back the territory that was enshrined, and even because of the excessive request of the tyrant, it is often the case that the vassal rebellion is caused. .
"But... It is said that the Qola Knights died in the plague?"
Fang Yuan looked around and had a harmonious pastoral scene. There was no sign of sorrow and grief: "Is it only for the family's evil? Interesting!"
Thinking of this, he stopped a farmer passing by: "Take me to the villa of Chora Knight!"
The lord has the power of finance, military, etc. in his own picks, and no one is in charge of building the palace.
Of course, due to financial problems, even the baron, it is difficult to have their own castle, most of the knights can only live in the villa.
In turn, a castle that has been inherited for hundreds of years is a landmark, the source of the glory of the nobility, and it also represents security.
After all, the castle of this era, in addition to showing off force and financial resources, the most important function is defense, or defense is the main function.
"you are……"
The person who was stopped seemed to be thirty or forty years old, with a gray face and a sack-like dress.
However, Fang Yuan is clear that it is not caused by eating and drinking, but because of long-term heavy physical exertion and oppression, which often means consumption of future life.
In fact, this person should be in his twenties, but he has already had a tendency to be premature.
At this time, he looked up and had doubts on his face with vicissitudes of life, with a little awe.
After all, a man who can ride a horse and wear a weapon is not a small peasant who can offend him.
"I am Lun, the heir to the Chora Knight!"
Fang Yuan announced in general.
"It turned out to be the Lord! I am called Willie!"
Willie quickly went to salute, it was the kind of **** posture, but unfortunately he did not have a hat on his head, but it was like a chicken coop, but it was very nondescript.
Moreover, Fang Yuan was keenly aware of a horror and pity from his eyes.
‘I think I will die from all kinds of accidents in a few days, just like the hapless heirs?” ’
He thought quietly, and then licked a few pieces of copper in the past: "I am a generous person, this is your reward!"
"Ah... how can this be?!"
Willie said quickly, but his hands unconsciously tightened the coins.
This money can buy a black bread, so that a few kids at home can eat a meal, oh... the poorest Kriel has never eaten since he was born, and often rushes to eat with his sister.
Because of the tipping, Willy suddenly broke out of inexplicable enthusiasm, while leading the way, introducing Fang Yuan to the original lord Chora and several heirs:
"The Qola Knight is a good man. My wife is also very kind. Sometimes I will give bread to the people. But unfortunately, the family died of illness. Thanks to the arrival of the pastor, the source was controlled in time, and there was no spread. ......"
"When the Cavaliers went, Master Marvins was the first heir, but on the way, he was thrown down by the horse and broke his neck..."
"Compared with Marvins, Engel is much worse, his temper is very violent, and even the unlucky one has been whipped by him. It’s just that he stayed in the villa of the Cavaliers for one night and seemed to be scared. It became a madman, and it didn’t take long to drown himself...”
"Since then, all the heirs have been in trouble, and everyone has rumored that the villa is surrounded by the curse of the Jola Knight. He is not willing to see the outsiders inherit his family business..."
......
Although the serfs of this era have a natural awe in front of the lord. But at this time, under the influence of money and a little hint, Willie seemed to be very familiar with Fang Yuan and became a big mouth.
Until he saw the two-storey villa, he seemed to think of his identity and quickly waved:
"Oh! Sorry, Master, I am not talking about you!... The so-called curse... It’s just a rumor! Rumor!"
"Ha ha!"
Fang Yuan smiled and did not care about Willie, who was scared to death by himself. He knocked on the door.
As the residence of the knight, this villa is very large, the mahogany door is very strong, the window is very large, the purple curtains are opened, let the sun sprinkle, the lighting is very good, very close to the appetite of Fang Yuan.
‘In any case, it’s always better than the castle...’
Castles as fortifications can destroy the dreams of young girls in many cases.
The narrow windows, the cold and wet environment is the mainstream. After staying in it for a long time, it will definitely be infected with diseases such as rheumatism. Of course, the extraordinary body is exceptional.
In comparison, the villas of the knights have made a lot of effort to use the marble floor, and there is a small garden behind, faintly visible fountains, statues, and cut vegetation, some flowers are blooming, exudes intoxicating Aroma.
When Fang Yuan saw this, he immediately decided that even if he had enough funds, he would not build a stone coffin to bury himself.
Just as he was thinking about it, the carefully crafted door opened from the inside, and there was a middle-aged housekeeper wearing a wig. There was some confusion in the muddy eyes: "You are..."
"I am Lun from Blue Moontown, this is my identification, there are other documents!"
Fang Yuan handed over the inheritance documents in the package: "I will inherit the legacy of the Jola Knight!"
"It turned out to be Master Lun. I am the butler of Chora, I have been waiting for you for a few days. Please come in!"
The Marseille Butler immediately gave way to the road, slightly owing it, and ushered Fang Fang into the villa.
The light inside the villa is not bad. There are copper candlesticks everywhere. There are marble sculptures and oil paintings on the walls and corners. It looks very noble.
"The young master is far from hard, please take a break, I will let the servant prepare dinner!"
Marseille said politely.
"These things are not urgent!"
Fang Yuan came to the living room and sat down on a chair wrapped in a thick layer of cloth, like a sofa. He waved his hand: "First of all, let's make sure that my inheritance rights are illegal, and what is really needed to inherit the jazz. formalities……"
"Yes!" Marseille was slightly surprised. He immediately took a pot of black tea and filled it with Fang Yuan. He said in a slow tone: "After the death of Master Raymond, you are already the first heir, as long as You don't declare abandonment, the inheritance is unshakable, but in the will of the master, you must also complete a condition in order to fully inherit these heritage!"
"What conditions? Aristocratic trials?"
Fang Yuan took a sip of black tea and crossed the fingers and asked with interest.
"No! It's just a very simple request. The Jazz adults need you to stay in this villa's study for one night!"
Marseille replied with a calm voice.
"In the study, stayed for one night?"
Fang Yuan suddenly associates with the unfortunate ENGEL in the previous guide of Willie. It seems that because of staying for one night, the spirit has a problem?
"can!"
But for him, this is nothing natural, and immediately nodded.
"In this case, I immediately went to ask a few notaries to come over!" Marseille seemed to be eager to export, and owed it to him.
"Is there really any evil spirit in this villa?"
This kind of performance made Fang Yuan slightly suspicious, and the gods spread out, and the corner of his mouth immediately brought a smile.
......
The dinner in the villa is very good, there are lamb chops that are roasted and tender, a variety of vegetable salads, as well as white bread and pulp, drinks with wine, and tableware are silvery silverware, which is very luxurious.
It is worth mentioning that Fang Yuan is not a person to dine, with him, there are several designated ‘notary public’!
Among them are the superiors of the Qola Knights, the messengers sent by the Baron Shawshank, the local heads, and the bishop of the Church of the Death.
What surprised Fang Yuan even more was that they seemed to be living nearby, and Marseille went out for a trip and immediately brought them back.
"Thank you for your hospitality!"
After eating and drinking, the Bishop of Hess, Daniel, spoke first: "I wish you success!"
"Thank you!"
Several people held their glasses and sipped them, because it was the first time they met, and they were not afraid to say anything.
It just feels that this bishop is looking at his own eyes and seems to have a deep meaning.
......
"Good night, Master Lun!"
After dinner, Fang Yuan was taken to the study of the Knights of Chora.
Immediately, Marseille commanded the servant, put down the quilt, and quit the study, politely closing the door.
Through the window, Fang Yuan saw that the servants were leaving the villa, apparently having another residence, and could not help but be even more surprised: "It seems that this villa is a bit deep in water!"
