Chapter 55

At breakfast the next morning, Tina buried her head deeply and felt that she had no face to see the Lord.

She was very frightened.

What if the Lord gets angry?

What if the Lord doesn't want to be himself?

It's not easy to have such a job. If you lose it because of your impulse, then

Tina was filled with regret.

She was really too impulsive yesterday.

Knowing that Donne had gone to the mine, I felt that he might not come back, so when I cleaned up for Donne at night, I couldn't help lying on Donne's bed.

The smell on the quilt flustered her. She fell asleep unconsciously and had a shameful dream.

But unexpectedly, the LORD came back in the middle of the night and caught her

God, what a shame!

How to face the Lord in the future!

Tina was crying.

I can't, I can only apologize to the Lord for mercy!

Lord is a good man. He won't mind... Will he?

After breakfast, as soon as Donne returned to the room, Tina followed him in.

"Tina?"

"Yes, sorry!"

Tina knelt directly in front of Donne and cried, "Lord, it's my fault. Please forgive me!"

"Ah? What's the matter?"

Donne was confused.

"It was yesterday, yesterday I......"

"Oh!"

Donne suddenly realized and said with a smile, "I was negligent and didn't give you a holiday. You must be tired of cleaning yesterday? Well, I'll give you a holiday today. You can have a rest."

When Donne got up in the morning, he saw the tools in the room, and he realized how Tina was in her room.

Tina clenched her lower lip: "but I fell asleep in your bed..."

Donne smiled brightly and said, "it doesn't matter. It's better to say that you warmed my quilt. I slept more comfortably. There was a refreshing smell of mint in the quilt. Did you wash the quilt for me with Mint Soap?"

Eh, eh!? No, not angry!?

Tina's heart jumped and she felt that she saw the dawn of hope.

Tina said awkwardly, "actually, that... I took a bath with mint soap yesterday..."

"I see!"

"Lord, do you like it?"

Tina blushed and said shyly, "if you like, I'll warm your bed later..."

"No."

Donne waved his hand and said with a smile, "I'm a big man. It's like asking a little girl to warm my bed all day."

"Well..."

Tina was very disappointed.

"Well, I have something to do. Go and have a rest. Don't forget to give you a day off today. Do whatever you want."

When Donne finished, he patted his forehead and took out a few gold coins: "look at me. Forget this. Here's your pocket money. If you want to add something, go buy it. Tell me if it's not enough."

Tina was startled when she saw the gold coin and waved her hand again and again: "no, no! The gold coin Lord Fiona gave me before is useless!"

Donne said with a smile, "what she gave was what she gave, and what I gave was what I gave. It's different. Let's take it as the cost of warming the bed last night."

"The cost of warming the bed...?"

Tina froze there: "so... In the Lord's eyes, am I that kind of woman?"

Donne was stunned: "ah?"

"So... So..."

Tina's eyes twinkled with tears: "so, Lord, do you think Tina is the kind of casual woman?"

"I didn't mean that..."

"I, I know!"

Tina wiped her tears and bowed deeply: "Lord, please forgive me for leaving."

Tina left with a dull look on her face.

What did I say wrong

"Women are really inexplicable creatures..."

Donne muttered.

"It's not that women are inexplicable, it's that you talk too much."

Fiona came over and rolled her eyes angrily: "which girl will be angry if she is said like that?"

Donne looked blankly, "ah?"

"I'm too lazy to tell you so much... By the way, you said you had something to tell me?"

"Yes!"

As soon as Donne was refreshed, he forgot about Tina in the blink of an eye and said with a smile: "I promulgated several new rules yesterday..."

After Donne finished, Fiona was stupid there.

"You... You... Pay the miners for their service!"

Fiona covered her head and her face was tangled. She felt her brain AChE: "my Lord, how much do you want to spend?"

"They work for me and I pay them. Isn't that normal?"

"But they are in service!"

Fiona said angrily, "when the residents grow up, they have the obligation to serve the Lord! This is an obligation! A free obligation!"

"Really?"

"Of course! The residents live on the Lord's land, pay taxes to the Lord, serve and even work for the Lord, and the Lord provides shelter for them and their families. It's natural! You pay them a salary. I, I'm really angry with you!"

Fiona stamped her foot angrily: "and, and you made a decision without consulting me in advance! Do you know it's very difficult for me!"

After a while, Fiona already knew what character Donne was, so she dared to talk to him like that.

If you change to another Lord, Fiona is afraid to make her little temper.

"I don't think so... It's just spending thousands of gold coins, but their enthusiasm for work has improved a lot. It's good."

"It's very good, but you've made such a start. What else will you do in the future? You still have to plan to rebuild Ellington. Do you still have to pay the reconstruction workers!?"

Donne took it for granted: "isn't that normal?"

"Very abnormal!"

Fiona was crazy: "it is the duty of every resident to re plan the town and work together to build it! What is it when you pay them? Build the whole territory with the LORD alone? Not to mention our financial situation in Ellington. Even the owners of other big towns have a hard time building a city. You are a territory!"

"Oh... Then continue to make money..."

"Making money... It's not as simple as you said... Alas!"

Fiona sighed: "now that you have promised, you can only find a way to improve it. You will really find me a job... But next time, you must discuss it with me in advance!"

"Well, well, listen to you!"

Donne smiled, "but don't worry about making money. There will be another sum of money in the account soon."

Fiona was excited when she heard that money was recorded: "what do you say?"

"Come with me."

Donne led the way to the outside: "more than 100 soldiers were recovered from the mine yesterday. They are Baron duvier of caspamiburg. Now I'm going to ask Baron duvier to pay

Redeem these people and ask him for compensation for illegal mining. "

"This... I can understand the former one, but you think the latter one is too easy."

Fiona shook her head: "he may redeem it, but he can never compensate for the income from selling the ore. I know more about the nobles of the empire than you do."

"Really? I opened my mouth. He can't give it if he doesn't want to."

Donne said casually, "Ellington is cheap. No one can take advantage of it."

That's it!

Fiona looked at Donne's side face and her heart pounded. She liked to see Donne's expression best. It seemed as if no one in the world was his opponent. The attitude of inadvertently disdaining everything was so charming!

Now Fiona understands Tina's feeling a little. If Donne inadvertently said such cruel words, she would probably run away in tears.

I hope I won't meet that day

They came to the prison and let the guard open the door.

"Lord, there are too many soldiers, and they are responsible for the food of more than 100 people. We are under great pressure."

The guard poured bitter water on Donne. This is why many lords are unwilling to accept the surrender. The surrender can't be used safely and can't play a role. It's better to raise a group of livestock than surrender.

"The expenses here will be reported to me at that time. I need to detail everyone's catering ingredients and the quotation of various ingredients."

"OK! Two adults, please be careful. It's a little dark and humid here -"

"Ah!"

Before the prison guard finished, Fiona slipped and fell down the stairs!

"Be careful!"

Donne put his arms around her waist, Fiona pressed on Donne tightly, and her face immediately began to turn red.

This feeling of concern is really too happy

Unfortunately, when he got down there, Donne let her go.

This guy!

Fiona stamped her foot angrily. Is she so unattractive!? Don't you know how to hold it for a while!?

How many men are not willing to let go of their hands holding beautiful women. He doesn't feel at all!

Doesn't this guy know the charm of women!?

Fiona stared at Donne suspiciously. Donne didn't realize it, but looked at the soldiers in the dungeon with interest.

These guys don't seem to worry about their situation at all. Although they look a little decadent, they stay in the dungeon one by one, and even a few get together to play Quint.

"I need a messenger."

Donne said suddenly, "send a letter to duvier and ask him to pay for you. Who is willing to volunteer?"

The soldiers looked at each other, and one of the guys waved at him: "Hey! Don't worry about the messenger, Lord Ellington, why don't you play Quint! No one can win me!"

Donne said softly, "I'm not interested."

"Er..."

The guy was not calm and muttered: "I always feel something wrong. Even the wizard master can't resist the charm of the Quint card. He fought with me for 300 rounds. Why doesn't the Lord get on the road..."
