Lord: Taken away from inheritance at the beginning

Chapter 113 114. The team has grown again

When Luo Ning came to Wushan Castle, there were only four people, but the team that returned included escorting knights, recruited craftsmen, and Wushan Castle's letter bird trainers. The number had already exceeded forty.

After he paid the relocation fee, the number of apprentices and craftsmen willing to accompany him to Shanlin Town increased significantly.

Wharton and George screened and screened these people with the assistance of Wushan City officials. After removing those who fished in troubled waters and wanted to defraud the relocation fees, these thirty-six people were left.

Among them, there are 2 blacksmiths and 5 blacksmith apprentices;

3 tailor apprentices;

2 carpenters, 12 carpenter apprentices, and 1 master craftsman;

2 masons and 5 apprentice masons;

1 potter and 3 apprentice potters;

Although Luo Ning was willing to pay a lot of money for relocation, apprentices came the most, and most of the craftsmen still did not choose to leave Wushan City.

Although the skills of these craftsmen who are willing to come are all passable, they are not doing very well in Wushan City.

For example, the pottery craftsman Jim is a craftsman who has no sales in Wushan City and is barely making a living.

He went to Luo Ning mainly for relocation expenses so that he could help his family overcome the current difficulties and at the same time take a chance on the possibilities of the future.

Among these people, the person Luo Ning cared about the most was a carpenter named Dahn.

Dan is not an ordinary carpenter. He is a craftsman certified by the Wushanling Carpenters Association. His skill level is far beyond that of craftsmen and has been practiced.

Whether it is Wushan Fort or Wushan City and its high-rise buildings, manor castles, etc. in and around the city, many buildings have the shadow of Dahn.

And this time he not only followed Luo Ning to Shanlin Town, but also brought two carpenter apprentices and eight carpenter apprentices with him.

To be honest, Luo Ning couldn't believe it when he first heard about it.

A well-known craftsman is actually willing to work in a remote rural area?

After questioning, I found out that Dahn had met Luo Ning in the workshop that day and heard Luo Ning talk about the structure of the curved shaft plow.

Dan decided to go to Hillwood Town because he was attracted by Luo Ning's explanation.

Luo Ning naturally treated such a talent with courtesy. Not only did he offer a high price of 150 copper coins per day, but he also paid up to 50 gold coins for relocation expenses!

"Master Daen, Shanlin Town is quite far from Wushanbao. If you have any discomfort or requests on the way, please feel free to ask!"

Before departure, Luo Ning met with this famous craftsman.

"You are too polite, Master Luo Ning!"

Dahn is not young and has a long beard all over his face, but he looks energetic.

"In the eyes of us carpenters, if you can design something as exquisite as a curved shaft plow, you are a master craftsman!"

Thinking of the scene where he explained the structure of the Quyuan Plow two days ago, Luo Ning unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth.

At that time, there were many people around him. When he explained the structure of the Quyuan Plow and briefly mentioned a few words about force analysis, the eyes of those people all shone with little stars of admiration.

Luo Ning has neither built a building nor joined any craftsmen's guild, but they all shouted Master Luo Ning one by one, and they all sounded a little carried away.

"Your comfort is very important to me."

Luo Ning said sincerely: "After arriving in Shanlin Town, I still have many things that I want to ask you to help me analyze and design."

What he said was true.

What Luo Ning wanted to make most right now was not the curved shaft plow, but the spinning wheel and loom.

He would never let a carpenter like Dan do the assembly line work of assembling iron wood armor. He wanted the other party to make the loom according to his own ideas, which was the key to making silk.

In addition to the loom, Luo Ning also thought of waterwheels, windmills, and even the ships behind them. After all, there is a sea to the north of Wushan Territory.

"It is an honor to serve you, my lord!"

Dan's eyes were sharp.

When a craftsman's skills reach his level, there are only two ways to become a master craftsman -

Either he can master the method of using magic energy materials, but he is just an ordinary person and does not have such conditions;

Or you can only design something unique and valuable.

Dan saw this possibility from Luo Ning, which was why he chose to leave Wushan City and go to Shanlin Town.

"Baron Ronin, can we set off?"

Knight Galil approached on a tall horse and asked politely.

When he went back this time, Wiggins arranged for twelve professional knights from the First Knight Squad to escort him.

In Wiggins' words, the Skull and Bones Society was likely to take action against Ronin or Brayton, so he arranged for teams to escort both of them when they traveled.

Regardless of whether it was Wiggins' fear of assassination or out of concern for himself, Ronin did not reject Wiggins's offer of kindness. After all, he is taking so many important people on the road this time, and it is very important to ensure that they arrive at Hillwood Town safely.

"Okay Galil, let's set off now."

Luo Ning ended the exchange, turned over and rode on the Cloud Riding Horse, waved to the two stewards who came to see him off, and then led the large army towards Shanlin Town.

For this return trip, Luo Ning rented dozens of carriages from Wushanbao, and purchased food and items that needed to be consumed along the way. He spent more than forty gold coins in order to make these craftsmen feel comfortable.

Although he spent more than a hundred gold coins before and after, fortunately, he earned more this time, and this small amount of gold coins would not cause Luo Ning heartache.

He looked at the vast team. Compared with last time, there were more people returning to Shanlin Town this time.

It's just that the quality of the personnel this time was uneven. The oldest one was Craftsman Dahn, who was already forty-seven years old. Considering his endurance, Luo Ning could only slow down his progress.

Because of this, the journey from Wushanbao to Shanlin Town may take until early November.

After arriving in Shanlin Town, I'm afraid it won't be until mid-November for this group of people to settle down and start production.

Although Luo Ning is in a hurry, there are no airplanes, high-speed rails, or flat highways here, so it's useless no matter how anxious you are.

……

"Luo Ning is gone?"

In a training room in Wushanbao, Brayton was practicing swordsmanship and stopped practicing when he saw his mother coming over.

In the past few days, rumors have spread that Luo Ning brought magical farm tools to Wushan Castle. As for the Quyuan Plow, which had only heard its name but not seen its actual substance, Brayton really wanted to see what was so magical about it.

It's a pity that he has been given a grounding order by Diane, who doesn't let him go out casually, let alone play with Luo Ning.

Diana, who had blond hair and was always dignified and beautiful, said, "I'm leaving, under the escort of Galil."

"Brayton, it's time for you to go back to the Transcendent Academy. This time, we didn't help Baron Reisen of Thain to get those lands. We need to explain it to him."

Diane said and handed over a letter, "Please take this letter back to the Transcendent Academy and give it to Moravi so he can forward it to his father."

Brayton wiped the sweat from his hands and took the letter, "Okay, I will forward it to him."

Diane did not tell him not to open the letter, because she knew her son's character and would not mess with other people's things. This was basic courtesy.

"Alright Sir Laurent, please lead the team to escort Brayton back this afternoon."

Laurent Nolan, a canonized knight of the Hyde family, is said to have the strength to rival a silver-level knight.

Since Wiggins was assassinated last time, in order to ensure the safety of his grandson Brayton, Orson specifically applied to Rulans to let Laurent Nolan become Brayton's personal guard.

Although Ushanbao had sufficient manpower to protect Brayton, Rulans did not reject the Hyde family's proposal. At least protecting Brayton's safety was their common aspiration.

"At your service, Lady Diane!"

Laurent saluted respectfully, but there was a different emotion in his eyes when he looked at Diane.

Diana was beautiful once, no, even now, Diana is still beautiful.

When she was not married to Wiggins, this girl was the dream lover of many knights in the Earl of Hyde, including Laurent.

Diane avoided Laurent's gaze, stepped forward, stroked Brayton's cheek, and warned: "Remember, after arriving at the academy, don't just focus on training and practice, but also learn more from the teachers how to handle government affairs. "

"I heard that Luo Ning has some insights into territory management. You can't be compared to him, you know?"

Brayton nodded, "I understand, I will learn from my brother."

Diane's hand froze for a moment, then returned to normal, "Well, go ahead."

Brayton left the training room under the escort of Laurent.

Diane looked into her son's eyes and sighed leisurely. Brayton was very talented in cultivation, but he was really not that good in other aspects.

But she is not panicking. With her help, she believes that her son can be the master of Wushan Territory.
