Chapter 26 The Guard 1
Five days later, the small village of Nisse, the central dirt house.
It was almost noon and the sun was a little sunny. William stood alone in front of the dirt house, his face as deep as water, looking forward motionlessly.
Old John walked over with a few villagers, and the villagers were carrying several rectangular rough wooden shields in their hands.
When he came to William, Old John asked the villagers to put down the wooden shield and waved them to leave.
Old John reported to William, "Sir Baron, the ten wooden shields you asked for are already made! Each weighs about five pounds!"
William casually glanced at the rough wooden shield that was sent over.
Maybe it is pursuing speed, and there are still wooden thorns on the wooden shield that have not been cleaned up, but these are all small problems. It is enough to have no problems in the general structure. Don’t force it to be sophisticated!
William said lightly, indicating that there was no problem, so he turned his head again and looked ahead.
Most of the villagers went out to find the treasure William wanted, or they would go to work in the fields. William was empty in front of him, and he didn't know what he was looking at!
Old John did not leave, hesitated for a moment, and then reported, "Sir Baron, because you are in a hurry, Charles couldn't make it alone, so he asked the village carpenter Modun to help with it. He had enough wood there. He paid him 50 Poole copper coins for each wooden shield. He gave him a total of 4 francs silver coins."
Military products are indeed huge profits!
People with a skill have food to eat everywhere!
These are two thoughts that flashed through William's mind.
But that's it! His focus is not on money now!
As long as money can buy what he wants, it is not a problem.
So he just said to Old John, "Okay, keep it in the account."
Because there are too many expenses recently, William cannot rely solely on John's mind to check the accounts. This is not a matter of trust, but a matter of system in the future.
So William used a blank parchment to recreate a new financial form.
It cannot be said to be a financial form, it can only be said to be an accounting form or a simple version.
The horizontal row is time, and the vertical row is the expenditure items and expenditure amount.
William asked Old John to fill in as long as he had expenses according to the date of the day. This way, it would be much simpler and clearer.
It will be convenient for William to reconcile the accounts in the future.
William doesn't care much about money, but he cares whether others fool him like a fool!
Although he felt that Old John would not do this, what about the others?
Beware of the unburned!
"Yes, Baron!" Old John responded, but did not leave, but stood silently next to William.
William said nothing.
"Huff...da da da...ha...ha da...da da..."
At this time, a mess of running and panting sounds came from the front.
Accompanied by this sound, a crooked team appeared in front of William and Old John.
Seeing this scene, William frowned, but Old John was delighted.
This crooked team is not long, and there are only ten people who can make the most of the game.
These ten people were the first members of the guards found by Old John.
The one in the lead was a strong and bearded man. His breathing was relatively calm and he looked relatively relaxed. Who else did not violate William and who was hanging by Jacques Porter at the entrance of the village?
After Jacques Porter was punished by William, his prestige in the village plummeted!
The villagers were not as afraid of him as before!
He didn't dare to blackmail other villagers as he did before!
But his appetite was too high, and there were a few boys in the Porter family, who were really unable to satisfy his appetite.
So Jacques Porter is hungry every day.
Until William's "recruitment" spread throughout the village.
When Jacques Porter heard the "bag food" he became interested in signing up.
His father and brothers all attacked him, saying that he had angered the Baron. The Baron would not invite him into the guards and told him not to appear in front of the Baron, so as not to vent his anger into their house!
Because of Jacques Porter's affairs and the exchange of gold silk grass for money, Old John has never given their family a good face!
The Porter family was afraid that Jacques Porter would add fuel to the fire, and then they would be out of control and the consequences would be unimaginable!
As a result, Jacques Porter was furious. He had a fight with Old Porter and his brother, and shouted, "I would rather be beaten to death by the Baron than starve to death!"
Then I ran to Old John to sign up.
Many villagers were full of hatred for Jacques Porter and were ready to watch Jacques Porter's jokes.
Unexpectedly, Old John, who was in charge of the registration, asked Jacques Porter's age (he was 20 years old), then pondered for a long time, looked at Jacques Porter several times, and finally went to the dirt house to ask William for his opinion.
William was stunned at first, then nodded and asked Jacques Porter to come in to the guard!
William has confidence and ability, and is not afraid that Jacques Porter will turn into heaven!
Jacques Porter's selection made the villagers in the village of Nisse break their glasses, and even more inspired the villagers' enthusiasm for registration.
Some village households who had no intentions also asked their children to sign up with Old John for screening!
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Running in the second position, not far from Jacques Porter, is a relatively clean and high-end boy!
Little John!
Old John's son, baby!
Drake John!
15 years old this year!
His face was flushed, his face was covered in sweat, gritting his teeth and staring at him, running desperately, chasing Jacques Porter's back.
He is also the reason why Old John has not left to do other things for the time being.
Seeing his son working so hard, Old John looked distressed.
He was older and had this child and always spoiled him!
I wanted to tell William to reduce the intensity of the training, but seeing William's silent face, Old John closed his mouth again and could only cheer up his son in his heart.
Not far behind Drake Old John are Grett's younger son, Grett's younger son, Kyle Adams and Rick Adams, the miller's Adams's two sons, Jerry Hurt's eldest son, Grey Freck, the cowherd's child, Jack Smith's Jack Smith's family, Mike Chris's family, and Kerry Mark, who ran at the end, was the thinnest.
Except for Kerry Mark, the only child from a poor family, the others are basically the sons of wealthy families in the small village of Nisse.
