Pendor Empire In Other Worlds

Vol 2 Chapter 83: Arrived in Linhu

Criminal service.

Serving a sentence for a crime, the sentence is hard labor.

It is not directly reduced to slavery.

Although these guys did commit unforgivable crimes, it would be too harsh to beat them directly into slaves before the crimes had serious consequences.

Although Lothar used criminals and slaves as free labor. But slaves and criminals are fundamentally different.

Criminals, after they bear the corresponding punishments for their crimes, can return to ordinary civilians.

In essence, criminals are just leaders serving their sentences.

But slaves are different. Unless they make great contributions, they will remain slaves for life. Not only are they slaves themselves, but their wives and children will also be slaves.

Slaves are the private ‘property’ of slave owners, and there is no human rights at all.

For example, if an ordinary civilian would not be pleasing to Lothar's slaves. If you beat and scold him, or even kill him directly.

So Lothar can only punish him for offending the authority of the nobility, not for murder.

In most cases, it will basically end with confiscation of money.

If the murderer is a member of the nobleman, even if it is just a nephew of a knight, he only needs to pay Lothar a certain amount of money.

If Lothar's request is too high, the other party can even appeal to the Grand Duke to reduce the amount.

But if the criminal is killed, it is the same as the murder of an ordinary citizen.

This can be used as an excuse for a legal war between the nobles.

Even if the Grand Duke (only the Grand Duke) stops, Lothar can choose a warrior to challenge the murderer other than the noble himself, and make him pay the price of blood.

If the victim is Lothar's immediate family, this restriction can be transferred to the nobleman himself.

Of course, all the above situations must happen in Lothar's own territory, and there is enough evidence, and Lothar is determined to fight with the opponent's family.

In most cases, if the killer is not an immediate family member of the opponent, the opponent will directly hand the person to Lothar for disposal. If Lothar is willing to save face, it is very common to bypass the life of a murderer.

If it is an immediate family member, in most cases it is also a matter of compensation.

From this we can see the difference in social status between slaves and civilians.

...

The two who got the order were mainly Simuller who was very efficient.

Soon, from the captured gangsters, I got the hiding place for the gangster's family, which was deliberately concealed, and set off with the scouts.

On Lothar's side, a camping spot was quickly found and the camp was built.

As for the left team, the question can be retrieved.

Lothar said: If they really can't find it, then they really don't come back.

Just kidding, although a serious mistake was made before. But the biggest reason was that the scouts were ordered to look after the carriage instead of a reconnaissance mission.

If you really can't come back, it's only because you can't come back in an unexpected situation, not because you can't find it.

That is, the biggest mistake was Lothar, not the professionalism of the scouts.

However, no one cared about this except Lothar himself.

As a subordinate, you have to take the initiative to maintain the authority of the leader.

This is the consensus of ordinary people under the background of the feudal era.

...

Simuller and others left for a long time, until dinner was prepared in the camp, and when the sky was already hazy, they came back under the pressure of a group of old and weak women and children.

However, when Simule replied to the order, Lothar also guessed why it took so long in the "'All' brought back" that was emphasized twice in a row.

All the gangsters and their families finally add up to more than 120 people.

Among them, there are not many old people and children, and they add up to a fraction, and Lothar simply pardons them directly.

Anyway, serving a sentence is not going to jail. Criminals can go home occasionally, so that Lothar doesn't have to take care of the old and the young.

Before he arrived in Linhu Town, he had gained more than a hundred labors, which was a surprise to Lothar.

Early the next morning, the team continued to set off.

Although there was a little more drag, there were still more than twenty miles left in total. In the evening that day, the party arrived outside the town.

When walking along the lakeside path towards the town.

The azure blue sky surrounding the setting sun, the golden light reflected on the Qiboer Lake, the yellow-green farmland, and the smoke rising from the small town together form a beautiful picture.

Yes, green and yellow farmland.

Although the growing season of grain is missed, May is still an ideal planting period for pastures such as alfalfa.

Embracing the famous freshwater lake of the Principality, coupled with the recent good sunshine conditions, the grass in the farmland is half as tall as a calf.

This is another surprise for Lothar.

Because from today, this beautiful town and the vast land around her belong to him.

Speaking of, yesterday, last year, he had just crossed over and had a fight with a group of hyenas.

Yesterday this year, his soldiers could already let a group of bandits collapse without fighting~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It feels full of accomplishment to think about it.

In fact, the name Linhu Town is Lothar's own name.

The reason is that the original name of the town is too long.

‘A...town on the edge of...a lake’

This is the original meaning of the long list of names in the town.

In order to avoid the suspicion of the number of water characters, Lothar simply changed it to Linhu Town.

As her new lord, Lothar certainly has this right.

For the arrival of the new lord, the town residents were full of expectations.

As soon as Lin Zhufu arrived, he announced the decision of'this year's tax exemption to be changed to paid conscription', and he even raised his hands and feet in favor.

In Lothar's view, as far as this year's situation is concerned, taxes and other things cannot be expected.

Forcibly levying taxes, in addition to arousing the dissatisfaction of the people, probably only a few dozen gold coins can be obtained.

On the contrary, it is better to use the limited labor force in more valuable places.

Announcing tax adjustments, but only to solicit people's hearts.

The first step to truly manage Linhu Town is to appoint An Sen as the mayor of Linhu Town.

then……

"An Sen, what do you think Linhu Town needs to do?" (Can you give me any tasks?)

"My lord, I think we should first gather the existing forces. All the unowned land, real estate, and materials that have not been taken away in Linhu Town and Perrota Village should be gathered and redistributed."

‘Accept a new mission: Commissioned by the elders of Linhu Village 1’

"Next, mobilize the leaders to harvest pasture and expand the stock of cattle and sheep."

‘Accept a new mission: Commissioned by the elders of Linhu Village 2’

"and also……"

...

Isn't it a normal operation to do one job and get two profits?
