Chapter 238 - 238 164 The Powder keg and the Rash Knights
?Chapter 238: Chapter 164: The Powder keg and the Rash Knight’s Attendant_1 Chapter 238: Chapter 164: The Powder keg and the Rash Knight’s Attendant_1 Ando looked at the rebuilding village from the carriage.
The bricklayers were bustling at the head and end of the village, children were chasing and playing in the open space in the village, and the women were weaving baskets and doing some chores in front of the house.
The village in front of him was simple, but it overflowed with a certain kind of spirit.
Ando, in the carriage with Robert, Ambros’ civil officer, said, “I can’t believe it, the serfs of the lord’s house seem to be in good spirits, they are like citizens in Ambros City.”
“People have happiness all over their faces only when they are satisfied with their current life.”
Robert laughed lightly, looking at the village on the mountain through the window of the carriage. “Isn’t it? Their houses are mostly dilapidated.”
“Ando, when did you take to giving cheap compliments, this is unlike you.”
“Is it because this territory is in a very important geographical location and they have defeated a team of wandering monsters?”
Robert looked at the rural area and sighed. “If it weren’t for my sister, Lady Alice, telling me that the lord here is her friend, I wouldn’t have come.”
Ando laughed, “Indeed, it is because you are Lady Alice’s brother, and the eldest son of the Emon family, that you were sent to this territory by the council.”
“You should also know about the iron casting.”
“This is not some remote rural area, the buildings of the village have not been completed due to the war, but everything is waiting to be rebuilt here. Look at those building materials, red bricks, green bricks, lime, these are top-quality materials.”
“I heard that these were donated by the lord here for free.”
“No wonder his civilians feel very happy.”
Robert doesn’t know much about this, his pupils suddenly shrank. “The lord who would do this, is either a complete fool, an idealist, or his ambition is not limited to this.”
Councillor Ando said: “In any case, according to the information I had before I came, coupled with what I have seen and heard, I think Lord Ivita is someone we can try to forge an alliance with. Even though he has ignored our recruitment twice before. Even though he is a baron, he is likely an adventurer and is an ally that the council needs to fight for.”
“That’s also why the council sent you over. The council hopes that you can become friends with him and strengthen the connection between him and us.”
“This time our aim is not only to get in touch with the mayor, but also to get the Western Border Guard of Ambros to our side.”
Robert sighed, “That’s easier said than done.”
“Become friends? I don’t even know what he likes.”
