Chapter 3 Let the loyal knight betray his lord

[Life Story] is a business simulation gameplay.

There are as many as a dozen life skills to master.

According to Roman, these life skills are very important.

These days, whoever masters various skills masters advanced productivity.

The way to obtain experience points and improve skill levels is also very simple, that is, to participate in daily work and slowly gain experience points in the process.

Improve [Construction] skills by building houses and decorating;

Improve the [Planting] level by cultivating and harvesting crops;

Improve [Collection] skills by cutting down trees and mining mineral veins...

Not only that, there are milestone rewards in the system of [Life Story] - you can get rough stones after upgrading your skills.

In addition, the only way to obtain additional rough stones is to use extraordinary resources to transform them. But Roman didn't know the effect of the original stone yet, so he didn't act rashly - he didn't have the money to recharge, because extraordinary resources were rare.

The skill milestone resources currently available for free are very important to Roman now.

If you upgrade from level 1 skill to level 2 skill, you can get 500 rough stones, which is equivalent to signing in for five more days instantly.

But based on Roman's personal experience, upgrading skill levels should be a relatively long process.

He was busy for most of the day, but in the end he only got 10 [Construction] experience points.

Upgrading from level 1 to level 2 requires 100 experience points.

These 10 experience points may seem like inconspicuous mosquito legs, but they are still of some use.

Every time he gained 1 point of experience, he gained a little more knowledge about civil construction in his mind.

Innate earth and wood holy body!

Although the work lasted less than a day, Roman's final performance was like a skilled construction worker who had been in the industry for several months. His work efficiency was extremely high. One person could do the work of ten people. The slaves were so surprised that they almost couldn't tell who was the slave. .

Otherwise, Roman might not be able to build five wooden houses before nightfall.

Although it is very simple - logs are used to build four walls, the roof is sloping, and finally thatched grass is put on, which can only block the wind, but not the rain.

In the eyes of the nobles, he was too miserable to look at and so ugly that there was no place to start.

But in Roman's eyes, these wooden houses contain the fruits of his own labor and are simple and unpretentious, so he is satisfied no matter how he looks at them.

"Sir, with all due respect, your status is not suitable for doing these things. This is not in line with noble etiquette." A sigh came from behind Roman.

After accepting the canonization, Roman naturally had to bring a team from home to avoid having no one to use in the fiefdom.

However, the resources allocated to him are not generous.

Two armored war knights, one deacon, two clerks, one cook, three assistant cooks, five male slaves, and five maids, a total of 19 people.

Finally, there are five horses and carriages as well as various living supplies.

Counting Roman himself, the number reached 20 people.

For ordinary nobles, these resources are beyond the standard.

But for an illegitimate child with cracked armor, it seems a bit shabby.

Although there are many people, the real internal members are only two war knights and one deacon. Only these three people are trained by the Split Armor Family.

The two clerks were civilian employees selected by Roman and had a contractual relationship.

The status of cooks, male slaves and maids was so low that they could only be counted as private property.

The speaker is Seth, the deacon, who is responsible for assisting Roman in managing his fief and property.

Seth is nearly forty years old, with a solemn expression, a straight body, and neat clothes with no wrinkles visible, making him look clean and professional. He was also the only person present who did not carry the wood with Roman.

Roman smiled and said: "If aristocratic etiquette can help me build a manor out of thin air, then I don't mind using it."

Seth once served as the tutor of the Split Armor family, that is, Roman's etiquette teacher. However, he has an old-fashioned personality, pays attention to elegance, and is not lovable - otherwise he would not have been missed by Roman. He took a fancy to the latter's rich management skills. Experience, don't care about the other party's preaching at all.

This old guy is a noble gentleman, the kind who can be bullied as a gentleman.

Roman looked at the two war knights chosen from his family.

One is named Aaron and the other is named Green.

The two of them have no canonization or knighthood, but they are strong, and they are better because of their youth. They have a promising future and belong to the potential group.

"You guys pack up and get ready to move in." Roman said to the two of them.

Green felt incredible: "Do you really want to stay?"

Roman hummed, "Why else would I build the house before dark?"

Moore wiped his sweat and spent a long time together. He felt that Roman had no intention of demoting him to the pigsty, so he suggested: "Master Roman, Master Knight, if you don't mind, you can stay overnight in Sige Town..."

"I hate it." Roman interrupted with a wave of his hand.

Medieval market towns were completely pig pens where dogs didn't even live. It was better to sleep in the wild and at least breathe clean and hygienic air.

When the knight named Aaron saw that Roman had made up his mind, he turned around, drove the carriage up, and began to unload the luggage.

Green said quietly: "I don't dislike it."

Roman glanced at him sideways: "Then go ahead and don't come back."

"As you command!"

Green looked at death with a look on his face, and then said loudly to Moore: "You will lead the way."

"Huh?" Moore looked at Roman and Green blankly, then at Aaron who was unloading and saluting, and Seth who couldn't bear to look at them.

One sentence made the Knight of War betray his lord.

I was the one who instigated the discord?

More was shocked.

"This..." More looked embarrassed. Was he testing his loyalty? Once he really took Green over, would Roman immediately smash the cup as a signal, and five hundred swordsmen jumped out of the bushes to chop him into a meat paste?

But the Knight of War was also a master to him.

Green walked towards More, and then was kicked by Roman.

He staggered, turned around and looked at Roman with resentment, it's okay for you to suffer here, but you actually prevented me from finding another place to live?

Roman glared at him.

Green was considered a child of the Split Armor family. He received special training from the Split Armor family since he was a child. The probability of betrayal was much lower than that of Roman drawing six stars alone.

Roman was tolerant, mainly because he led Green astray - they grew up together and influenced each other, otherwise Green would not have said such a rebellious word.

Roman stopped Green from making trouble and turned to Mor, saying, "You can go now. Come early tomorrow. I have something to tell you."

After that, he waved his hand and dismissed Mor and the group of slaves.

Mor hesitated to speak, but his life was saved for the time being. But he was worried about the future, and felt that this was not a proper noble.

After thinking hard, he had to take people away.

The slaves were also amazed and felt that today was the most dreamy episode.

Do you know the newly appointed lord? I carried wood with him.

Who would believe it if I told others?

…

After sending Mor away, Roman's attendant chef also prepared dinner. It was not rich, but it was okay.

There was nothing much to say about the room allocation.

Roman had a single room, two knights and a deacon had a room, and the rest were free to allocate.

It was early spring, and the earth had just revived, so there were not many mosquitoes.

A few wooden boards were laid out as a temporary bed, and Roman lay on the bed, studying the game interface and functions, and he did not sleep for a long time.
