Chapter 510： New tasks for winter

After all, let alone want to eat meat in previous years, even if you work hard, you may not be able to eat enough every day.

Therefore, the attitude of everyone towards this Lord is extremely respectful now, for fear of violating the laws of the territory or colliding with the Lord, and then losing everything.

Of course, there is another important reason for this, that is, when the food Narant distributes to them, it is distributed on a weekly basis.

This is mainly to prevent some of them from being dishonest and causing trouble or running away after getting food.

When Narant rode on the back of the white dragon and nodded to the crowd, his eyes were constantly scanning these serfs.

Although hoarfrost and ice cubes can be seen in the morning in the territory now, these serfs are still wearing the linen gowns they used to wear some time ago, as if the clothes show no signs of thickening or increasing.

Seeing this, Narant couldn't help but asked the big stone beside him: "Big stone, what clothes do you barbarians wear when they spend the winter?"

"Go back to your lord, we used to wear beast fur, and we only wore a few more during the winter. However, after following the lord this year, we can add linen clothes inside the animal skin, which should definitely be more comfortable. Warm!" Big Stone thought for a moment and replied with a smirk.

Nalanda nodded, and then continued onwards, and then he really saw clothing sewn from animal skins to keep out the cold on the barbarians who occasionally passed by.

On the contrary, a group of thin ordinary serfs only have the linen gown.

Seeing this, Narant couldn't help but feel a little worried, and understood the reason why the system issued this task.

Looking at the situation, I don't know whether the serfs can survive the winter safely.

However, now he is ready to finish the task first.

So, with his personal guards, he moved from Maiye Village to Lucky Village, and finally went to three small villages in the new territory.

It took half a day to inspect this circle.

And he also found that the situation did not seem optimistic, because he found that the situation of other villages was the same as that of Maiye Village.

Whether it was the new serfs or the aborigines with storm collars, they all wore thin linen gowns.

Of course, the aborigines in the storm collar are better, because the arrival of Narant has given them a little extra money, so the aborigines have rich linen gowns, at least one or two more than the new serfs. At least a little warmer.

And because the new serfs have only been here for a few days, they have no wages for work these days. Narant only cares about meals, so naturally he doesn't have the spare money to buy new clothes.

Finally, Narant arrived at Maiye Village again and found Mario.

"Sir, are you looking for a little one?" Mario hurriedly came to Narant when he heard the notice.

"Mario, the weather is getting colder and colder, but the Lord found a problem during his inspection today!"

"Sir, what's the problem, the little one will do it right now!" Mario was stunned when he heard the words, and then responded nervously.

Looking at the face of his own adults, he seems to be a little dissatisfied with his work.

"I think the clothes on those serfs seem to be relatively thin, Mario, why didn't you report this to me some time ago?"

If it hadn't been for the system's mission, Narant wouldn't have paid attention to this. After all, this was also the first winter he had passed through, and he still had a dead end, thinking that if the serfs had enough food, they would be safe and sound. winter.

But the current appearance, it is estimated that it will really start to snow in the second half of the month, and a few will freeze to death.

If Mario, the civil affairs officer, had been informed in advance, he could have prepared some countermeasures earlier.

"This..." Mario was stunned for a moment, and after a while he guessed what his lord meant, and immediately explained respectfully: "Sir, the serfs also spent winter like this in previous years, so... So the little ones didn't report, yes Small negligence, please punish the adults!"

"That's how we spend the winter? Mario, are you sure they can survive it?" Narant frowned slightly.

"Sir, it's true, our Storm Territory is still pretty good, especially the aborigines, because of your kindness, Sir, they have the ability to buy more clothes, serfs in other noble territories, basically the same as our territory. Like the new serfs, they dress like this in winter..."

"Of course, they look lightly dressed now, but when it gets colder for a few days, they'll stuff their clothes with hay or leaves so they can withstand the colder weather."

"It turned out to be like this!" Narant found that he was ignorant and blamed Mario.

No wonder Mario did not report this matter to himself. It turns out that this is the normal state of the world. Since it is the normal state, it is not abnormal, and there is no need to report it.

However, adding hay or leaves to your clothes, although not as good as cotton wool, does add some warmth.

"By the way, Mario, can this really guarantee that all the serfs will spend the winter safely?" However, after thinking for a moment, Narant was still a little worried.

"Master, in fact, when the serfs work during the day, they usually don't feel cold."

"I'm afraid that during the continuous heavy snow, staying in the thatched hut and being unable to move around may cause some weak people to freeze to death."

"In previous years, when other noble territories were cold in winter, there were basically dozens or hundreds of people who might freeze to death..."

"But in my opinion, because of your kindness, Lord, they can eat enough every day. Even if it really snows, the number of people who freeze to death should not be too many..."

In the eyes of Mario or people in this world, it is actually normal for dozens or hundreds of people to freeze to death every winter.

After all, cold and hunger are the main themes of the life of the serfs in this world, so they always visit a few poor serfs every year.

As long as there is no natural disaster, causing widespread famine or other disasters, it is a normal year But Narant doesn't think so, although the **** decides the head, it is impossible to say that the serfs will live in the previous life Such a good life, but not starving to death is the bottom line.

"Not too much?" Narant frowned.

"Ding, the system side quest: inspecting the territory and understanding the situation of the serfs over the winter has been completed, and the news of the quest about the sacred continent has been released!"

"Ding, the system's new mission, as a traveler, as a mighty and benevolent lord, other nobles can ignore the casualties of dozens and hundreds of territorial citizens, but can you?"

"New system side quest: find a way to help the serfs survive the cold winter and solve the cold problem!"

"Quest Reward: The Appearance of a New Plant!"

"Solving the cold problem? A series of missions?" Listening to the prompts in his mind, Narant was not surprised.

Even if the system does not issue follow-up tasks, since he knows this, he will try his best to prevent people from freezing to death.

However, now that the system has released the task, he has to take it seriously.
