Chapter 218 Please Let Me Follow You!
Li Mosi had previously seen it on the [Leshan Water] map.
The pastures and stables on the outskirts of the town housed more than sixty cattle, more than twenty horses, and more than a dozen donkeys.
Even if they abandoned the calves, the cows, and the pregnant livestock, they could still carry enough food to travel to the rest of the estate.
After all, even if all the living people in the remaining eleven manors directly under the Stern family and the two manors belonging to the Stern family's vassal knights were included, the population would still be less than three thousand.
Even if these people can eat two kilograms per meal, at most six tons of food would need to be transported.
It can be pulled up by six horse-drawn carriages.
They could even bring extra food for later use, as well as tools and supplies for livestock.
Ziyi and his clansmen quickly gathered outside the main courtyard with the groom and more than sixty head of livestock pulling the cart.
The tribespeople, who had already received orders, began loading things onto the vehicle.
They first loaded the buckets containing the cooked food onto the truck, and then loaded the boxes of wheat and beans, as well as the cartons of cheese and pieces of cured meat that Li Mosi and Zi'an had just moved out of the warehouse onto the truck.
This food is enough to feed the people in the other manors for another two days.
Li Mo thought for a moment and then found the leader of the new tribesmen who were not the old ones.
"Your team will be split into two teams."
He pointed to one of them.
"You and your fifty men will guard this place. I will send two more squads of goblin warriors to help you defend this town."
After he finished speaking, he pointed to another team leader.
"You and the rest of your tribesmen, continue with me."
"Yes, sir."
The two team leaders received orders and immediately went to find their subordinates to divide into teams.
The goblins had already divided into teams.
Zi Yi arranged two teams of spear-wielding warriors and twenty ordinary tribesmen carrying spears and shields.
One team of pole-wielding warriors guarded the main house, while the other team split into two to guard the high platform to the south.
Twenty ordinary clansmen were also divided into two groups to guard the two high platforms.
"You're really generous."
Hearing Hagi Saint speak, Li Moss, who was watching the tribespeople work, turned to look at her.
What is this guy talking about now?
"Or are we just waiting for our people to starve and freeze to death?"
Zi'an didn't understand either.
This food is enough for them to eat as much as they want. The wheat for next year has already been planted, so what's in the warehouse is for them to eat.
"Huh? I..."
Just as she was about to speak, Zi Yi turned and looked over.
"So you think your former teacher is the same kind of leader as you nobles?"
After these few days, he had a general understanding of the saintess's identity.
That's definitely a nobleman even more powerful than a baron.
However, just like the Baron, it only sounds impressive.
Actually, it's not that impressive.
The vegetables were no different from wild boar meat.
"I'm completely different from these nobles, okay?"
Haki Saint instinctively retorted.
"You have no idea what's outside that giant island in the northeast, outside there, mmm!"
When Li Moss noticed that the tribespeople had shifted their attention and even slowed down their work, he immediately pinched Hagi Saint's mouth shut.
"Mmm!"
Don't stop me from speaking!
ga-
Not far from the convoy, a tightly closed window quietly opened a crack.
The little boy secretly looked out the window.
"They're loading things onto the truck!"
He was then pushed aside by a girl who was a head taller than him.
"Let me see! It really is?"
"I want to see it too!"
Behind the two children, a smaller girl was tugging at their clothes and yelling.
Stop looking!
A woman whose face was beginning to show fine wrinkles shooed them away.
"We haven't received orders not to go out."
As the woman spoke, she closed the window.
She closed the window and turned to look at Calbin.
"My dear, has the new lord given you any orders?"
Calbin sat hunched over at the dining table, constantly rubbing his hands together.
"no."
He shook his head, looking at his wife and children with a tense and troubled expression.
"Even Aison didn't stand up, so the new lord must be a good person."
His wife walked over to Calbin and gently placed her hands on his shoulders.
"You are also one of the few people in the territory who can speak the common script of the Church, so the new lord shouldn't do anything to you."
"And at least they're not assigning you those annoying tasks anymore."
"Ah. Darling, you're right."
Karbin forced a smile.
His wife was right.
But he wasn't sure himself.
After all, if the new leader needs him, he shouldn't fail to summon him at this time.
Just from what the children were saying, he knew that the new lord was going to take over other manors!
Even if they don't summon him, they'll surely summon Aison or Tritan, right?
After all, one of them was a priest in the territory, whose status was equal to that of the lord, and who also had great prestige in the territory.
The other was the tax official, who knew the territory much better than he did.
But now that things have come to this, the new lord hasn't summoned anyone!
This is very wrong!
"One last check, time to go!"
"Yes, Chief."
"Did you bring the cloth strip?"
"We brought them! We've moved the buckets, the boxes, and there's enough left..."
Hearing the noise outside, Calbin jumped to his feet.
"No, I have to get out of here right away."
He walked to the door, then turned back to look at his wife and children.
"My love, wait for me to come back."
Goodbye, Daddy!
"Honey, come back soon."
Calbin took one last look at his wife and children, then pushed open the door and walked out.
He spotted Zian's armor immediately and quickly walked over to them.
Li Mosi and the other three naturally heard the commotion.
Calbin quickly bowed his head and knelt down.
"My lords, please allow me to follow you!"
They actually came here on their own initiative?
Zi Yi looked at Li Mosi.
Why are you looking at me?
Li Mosi looked at Zi Yi and gestured with her chin towards Calbin.
Go ahead and do it.
Zi Yi nodded and looked at Kalbin.
"Do you know what we're going to do?"
"Yes, my lord."
Calbin looked up.
"You must extend your mercy to the other plantations, to every single person in your territory. I have no reason not to follow you!"
Ziyi nodded.
"Then you'll have to come with us. We might have to sleep in the wild tonight."
Calbin breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
"I'd be willing to sleep in the mud just to witness the kindness of adults!"
Then you'd better really be willing.
Just as Li Moss saw Calbin get up, she noticed that the door to another room not far away had also opened.
Tritan came out from inside.
As soon as Calbin got up, before he could even leave, he knelt down directly in front of Li Moss and the other three not far from Calbin.
"My lord, please allow me to follow you as well!"
He had originally thought that the less noticeable he was, the better, so that the new lord would forget that he even had a family.
But as soon as he heard Calbin's voice, he immediately ran out.
We absolutely cannot let this guy be alone with an adult!
He might even bewitch the adults!
"Chief! Everything is packed!"
"Let's go!"
With the final checks completed, the convoy headed south.
Carbin and Trittan followed at the back of the convoy, silently watching Li Moss and his three companions ahead.
They watched as the convoy reached the southern intersection, then Li Mosi pointed west, and Zi Yi ordered the convoy to head west.
The entire process was completed without any interruptions!
It was as if the church in the south was no different from the homes of other townspeople!
ga-
Just as the convoy had passed halfway, the church gates opened.
Aisong came out carrying a wooden staff.
"I want to follow you."
what?
Both Calbin and Tritan squinted.
