Chapter 8: trick

"what did you say?"
Tang En suspected he had heard it wrong.
"You heard me right, because you saved a lot of people and helped Captain Ronnie fight off the robbers, so Lord Lord decided to entertain you two at night, and you can also prove your identity to Lord Lord."
The private captain said with a stern face: "It's time for a meal, please prepare and go to the lord's house for a banquet."
Help Ronnie fight off the mountain thief?
Tang En's face was speechless, and Fiona's face was even more angry: "It's shameless, obviously it's Tang En's credit, you dare to grab his credit for it!"
The private captain ignored Fiona directly, glanced at Tang En, and left.
Tang En thoughtfully, with a sloppy smile on the corner of his mouth: "Interesting."
He noticed that the private soldier's gaze turned a few laps on the potent life potion before leaving.
Fiona said in a deep voice: "That lord must have thought otherwise."
"Of course, his private soldier captain looked extremely effective ... the greedy eyes of the goddess' blood had already revealed their thoughts."
Tang En shrugged and couldn't help crying and laughing. He never expected that a bottle of life potion would cause other people's anger.
At this time, Tang En saw Ilya hurried over, and the little girl seemed a little anxious, and almost fell to the ground, Tang En stepped forward and supported her.
Elijah blushed, and then twitched and said, "Big brother, Father Abbotton is back. Sister Elsa said he wants to see you, so you don't need to leave here."
"Daddy Abbotton?"
"Sister Elsa's father."
Ilia said with a look of course: "I'm not a child of Mom and Dad."
Tang En froze: "Are you an orphan?"
Elijah looked at Tang En very strangely: "No, I have sister Elsa."
Tang En froze, patted Elijah's head a moment later, and smiled: "Well, yes, I will be your family in the future, and I will take care of you and protect you."
Yi Liya blushed when she heard the words, lowered her fingers and twisted her face.
Big Brother wants to marry Elijah? But, it's a little too early. People are only twelve years old. Besides, I haven't liked big brother yet ... but what if he really said that?
When Elijah cleared her thoughts and summoned the courage to refuse Tang En, at least temporarily, she found that Tang En was gone.
The little girl was discouraged.
Tang En didn't notice Ilia's abnormality. He had already seen Elsa, so he walked over.
The vicissitudes of the middle-aged man walking beside Elsa must be Elsa's father, Abbot.
"Brother Don, this is my father, Abbotton!"
Elsa gave a brief introduction to Tang En: "Dad, this is Brother Tang En who saved many people."
Abbot stared at Tang En for a while, then stepped forward cautiously, just as Tang En wondered what he wanted to do, all of a sudden, Abbot kneel on one knee in front of Tang En!
By then Elsa, Elijah, and the surrounding residents were all stunned.
"father!?"
Elsa exclaimed, "What are you doing !?"
Abbotton bowed his head slightly, and said in a deep voice, "I, for all residents of Ellington, thank the Lord Lord for his kindness."
He is really the new lord! ?
Elsa and Ilia were dumbfounded and stupid.
There was an uproar around, what was Abbotton saying just now? Lord? This one who rescued Ellington turned out to be our new Lord! ?
"How is it possible ... how could the nobles rescue our civilians by mistake?"
"Is Abbot wrong?"
Tang En could not help asking: "Do you know me?"
"I just returned from Yalinks."
After hearing this from Abbotton, Dunn understood that I was afraid that the news of his own land purchase had spread to Alinks, so Abelton heard it.
"If our new lord is you, I'm afraid we don't have to worry about anything."
Aburton smiled: "A lord who is willing to use such precious treasures to treat civilians, I believe you will be able to manage Ellington."
"Get up first ..."
Tang En lifted Abbot, and his behavior undoubtedly told those around him that what Abbot said was a fact.
Down, really Ellington's new lord.
What a strength!
There was a look of surprise in Abbotton's eyes, aided by Tang En.
Not far away, Hogg's personal soldiers saw such an unbelievable turn, all of them were dumbfounded, and after stunning for a moment, they immediately ran back to report to Hogg.
"Is this really the case ..."
Hogg frowned: "Abbotton is mysterious and mysterious all day, and hits my place as soon as he returns from Alinks!"
"correct."
The private soldier said suddenly: "The guy's letter of appointment for the lord seems to be on Ronnie. Ronnie had intended to take him to see you, but Elsa called him to put out the fire."
"Lord's appointment ..."
Hog's face was somber, and after thinking about it, he sneered and said, "Go and let Ronnie burn the lord's appointment book."
"Sir, you are planning to ..."
"I didn't see the lord appointment letter, how would I know he was the new lord?"
Hogg smiled coldly: "The new lord was killed by a robber on his way to office ... isn't this in line with Ellington's status?"
The others smiled suddenly.
On the square, Tang En learned from Abbotton about the problems that Ellington is facing now, heavy taxes, greedy and greedy lords, frequent robbers ... even the richest cities can't bear this Situation, let alone Ellington is just a remote town.
The land here is not barren, but there is no mention of how rich it is. Frequent pirates greatly affect farming. In addition, a greedy leader collects 80% of the crops as tax revenue. The residents here are expecting enough food. Not to mention protecting Ellington.
The vast majority of people Tang En saw after entering Ellington were emaciated and malnourished, but the militia was relatively good. After all, they depended on them to maintain law and order and protect the town.
Hogg's personal soldiers were significantly better off.
Down found that if he was to sit firmly in Ellington, the first thing he had to do was get them to eat.
He pondered for a moment and asked, "Since the pirates are so mad, why didn't the lord lead the soldiers to destroy them?"
Aburton smiled and said, "Of course, how could he not act? If there was no movement at all, how could the aristocratic council keep him seated here?"
"However, action is action. Whether the bandits are effective is another matter."
Abbotton said meaningfully: "Every time I took someone to the thief's lair, there was an empty area. There was no one, only some wealth that was plundered. After Lord Hog searched those wealth, One part went up to declare the success of the bandit, and the other part filled his own treasure house ... "
Tang En narrowed his eyes: "You mean ..."
"I did not say anything."
Abbot shrugged. "What to do, it's up to you."
"Lord Lord."
Fiona came over: "The wounded have all been dealt with. There are 352 seriously injured and 448 lightly injured. They have now fully recovered. There is still half a barrel of diluted goddess blood. I have asked people to fill it up and reserve it later. used."
The diluted actually needs to be refilled ...
Tang En's face was silent, and Fiona was too easy to live.
After Fiona reported the situation, she said in admiration: "But Lord Lord, you have used such precious treasures to treat them. Now the residents of Ellington are very friendly to you. After you take office, the implementation of policies The resistance must be very small. "
Tang En nodded indifferently, then said, "It's almost time, accompany me to the banquet."
"Go to a banquet?"
Fiona was taken aback: "Master Lord, do you really plan to sit and dine with that guy? I am afraid it will greatly affect your reputation in the residents!"
Tang En grinned: "Rest assured ... they will understand."
I first arrived, and the gold coins in the game could not be used in reality. To take a good first step, of course, I have to "talk" with this Hogg and get a "political starting capital".
Tang En believes that once the news of Hogg's extortion spreads, it will definitely make the residents of Ellington savagely angry. At this time, he will introduce some policies to benefit the people in a timely manner, and he will definitely settle in this position immediately.
As for future developments ...
Tang En laughed. With the knowledge he has learned on the earth, his broad horizons and forward-looking, is it not easy to develop a territory?
Now Hogg is his stepping stone.
"Uncle Abbot."
Ronnie, who had just burned the appointment letter according to Hogg's order, ran over, saw the back of Tang En leaving, and said disdainly, "This guy is sneaky, it must not be a good guy, I will have to wait for him later Grab it and question it clearly ... why do you look at me like this? "
Ronnie found that the people around him looked very strangely in his eyes, a little strange in his heart.
"Ronnie, don't be disrespectful to Lord Lord!"
Elsa yelled, "Master Lord has brought out precious treasures to treat everyone, how can you stigmatize him like this?"
"He? Lord Lord?"
Ronnie sneered: "Elsa, what are you kidding me? If he is the lord, I will be the king of Illus!"
The letters of appointment have been burned. How can he prove his identity? Why is it against Lord Hogg?
"It's superficial! Ilia, let's go!"
As soon as Elsa shook her hair, she took Eliya home.
After Abdon watched Down's departure, he said to Ronny, "Town is our new lord and must not be rude to him."
After saying that Abbotton also left.
Ronny's face became extremely bad. What the did this Tangn do? Let them all stand by his side!
Just wait and see!
If you can't get the appointment letter, Lord Hogg will make you die terribly!
