Chapter 118 118Wilson’s Complaints

The 11th Son’s Complaint

After Browning's explanation, Luo Ning learned a lot about taming Warcraft.

Generally speaking, the methods used to tame monsters are five combinations of starvation, boiling, beating, rewards, and training.

For some monsters with weak willpower, if you starve them and give them some food, you will be able to make them surrender after a few repetitions. If you cooperate with them through training, and after two or three generations of reproduction, you will be able to get a docile pet.

It is not so easy to tame monsters with fierce temperaments. After all, they are not only violent in temperament, but most of them have high intelligence.

Some guys would rather starve to death than eat a morsel of food thrown away by humans. If you want to make them surrender, you can only rely on auxiliary props such as Warcraft Contract Scrolls to establish a master-servant relationship from the soul.

However, the Storm Wolf cub obtained by Luo Ning was a little different. Firstly, it didn't stay with the mother wolf for too long, and secondly, it was so small that it didn't even open its eyes.

There is an unwritten saying in the animal taming world that cubs will have a deep impression on the first person or animal they see when they open their eyes.

Therefore, Browning suggested that Luoning have more contact with the cub in the past few days to ensure that he is the first thing he sees when he opens his eyes.

At the same time, he also warned Luo Ning to be close to the Storm Wolf cub after it opened its eyes, to interact with the cub in a gentle, friendly and patient manner, and to minimize any interference to the cub.

In this way, the foundation of trust has been established, and then it is almost enough to let the other party know the identity of Luo Ning's master through training, rewards and punishments.

Storm wolves are also wolves. Humans can tame wild wolves into dogs, and it is very feasible to tame demon wolves into "magic dogs".

After sending the trainer away, Luo Ning and Irene played with the Storm Wolf cub for a while.

"Let's give it a name, shall we?"

Erin gently stroked the cub's head, as if she felt that she had another playmate in Hillwood Town.

Maybe it was because it had been touched too many times. The cub was a little resistant at first, but now it just grunted and showed no resistance.

Luo Ning thought for a while and said, "I see it has black hair all over its body, so let's call it 'Little Black'."

"Xiao Hei?"

Erin tilted her head and thought for a while, "Brother, can you change your name to something more domineering? Xiao Hei sounds very weak. How about calling him 'Black Tiger'?"

"My father said that tiger monsters are very powerful!"

"Black Tiger can do it too."

Luo Ning smiled and agreed, "Looking at its tiger-like appearance, this name is appropriate."

"Hehe, Black Tiger, Black Tiger~"

Amid Irene's cheerful shouts, the valet Gallon knocked on the door again, "Sir, Political Officer Wilson is here. He has something to report to you."

"Let him come to my study."

Luo Ning touched the black tiger's little head and asked Irene to play with it before leaving the temporarily arranged pet room.

"Sir, long time no see!"

In the study, Wilson greeted Luoning warmly.

"Long time no see Wilson, how are the accommodation arrangements for the craftsmen?" Luo Ning asked.

"Sir, although we have been building wooden houses for the past two months, the number of people you have brought this time is quite large, and they are all famous craftsmen. It will be difficult for them to live in one room alone."

Luo Ning nodded, frowning and thinking for a while.

"It is my commitment to provide accommodation for the craftsmen. However, if the room is limited in the early stage, I can let them live in one room. If it is expanded later, I promise to change it for them. Most of the craftsmen come in groups, so living together should not be a problem. .”

These people came to Shanlin Town not as guests, but as workers working for Luo Ning, and they came to start a business.

Luoning's ability to provide shelter from wind and rain was enough, but it did not guarantee how luxurious it would be.

"Oh, by the way, Craftsman Dahn let him live in the castle, and Jim, the potter, made better arrangements for him."

Craftsman Dahn was involved in the manufacturing of looms, while Jim was involved in porcelain. Both of these would be the pillar industries of Shanlin Town in the future. It would not be too much to treat these two people, especially Craftsman Dahn, with too much courtesy.

Wilson remembered the names of these two people firmly, and it was definitely unusual for the Lord to single them out.

Next, Luo Ning explained to Wilson the work arrangements of these craftsmen.

Carpenters can be arranged to the ironwood workshop, where the newly built factory building is relatively large and has enough space;

The two new masons and five apprentices naturally joined the army of building houses to prepare for the subsequent expansion of Luoning's population;

The only difficult thing to arrange is the blacksmith - Kallus's blacksmith shop is not big and cannot accommodate so many people working.

Hillwood Town needs to build a new blacksmith shop.

Luo Ning thought for a moment and then ordered: "The day after tomorrow, let the craftsmen come to the Forest Fortress for a meeting the day after tomorrow. Call up Kallus and William in the town."

"Okay, sir, I will notify everyone tomorrow."

Wilson wrote everything down, "Sir, we have sown cabbage according to your ridge farming method, and applied urine fertilizer according to your method. After more than a month, it has grown very well. Do you have time to inspect it? one time?"

The first wave of crops grown using the ridge farming method in Shanlin Town was cabbage, and it has indeed grown in the past two months.

new

Chahar, who had been standing aside, also reported: "Sir, according to Maxin's report, several piles of feces at the fertilizer base have turned black as you said, and they no longer smell. I went over to take a look, and I should be satisfied. I have fulfilled your request. When are you going to check it out?"

Luo Ning nodded, "Let's go to the fertilizer base first, and then check out the cabbage planting situation tomorrow. Oh, by the way, Wilson, have you planned the experimental field?"

Wilson nodded, "Sir, with the assistance of the four village chiefs, I have planned ten acres of land in each village."

These forty acres of land were specially used by Luo Ning to cultivate wheat.

Luo Ning planned to let people cultivate it intensively, and then select large and plump wheat ears as seeds, which would also serve as a base for testing the effects of fertilizers.

If he wanted to get seeds with good properties, he could only think of this method.

As for other wheat fields, in terms of the original planting method, Luo Ning has asked the village chiefs and team leaders to take the lead in collecting dead branches and leaves and other things to burn fire dung before spring plowing, and at the same time applying a little fertilizer to ensure that the wheat fields are in good condition. Irrigation and weeding can be carried out effectively.

In short, we must never grow food with the "seven gods bless" mentality like before.

The conversation lasted for a long time, with Wilson and Chahar mostly reporting on the situation in Shanlin Town in the past month, and Luo Ning also asked a lot of questions.

Overall, the agricultural aspects of Shanlin Town are basically moving in the direction Luo Ning expected. The only problem may still be the lack of manpower.

When Luo Ning came back, he thought about whether to take a detour to Muma City to buy a group of slaves. However, considering that the winter was coming, it would be difficult to transport so many slaves, and there were not that many houses in Shanlin Town, so he had to give up in the end.

"grown ups……"

Wilson was hesitant, as if he had something he wanted to say but didn't dare to say it.

Seeing this, Luo Ning smiled and said: "Wilson, you have done a good job recently. If you have any ideas and opinions, please feel free to mention them."

After receiving the affirmation, Wilson plucked up the courage and said, "Sir, can you recruit an assistant for me?"

He quickly explained: "With the help of the village chief and team leader, it is very convenient for me to handle agricultural matters. But sir, regarding the arrangement and supervision of slave work, logging and construction, I am a bit unable to handle it alone. .”

When he first applied for Luo Ning's job as a political officer, Wilson never imagined that a political officer would be so busy. After all, the previous Prince seemed very idle.

But since becoming Luoning's political officer, Wilson has never had a good night's sleep.

Although he very much enjoyed the enthusiastic honorifics given to him by the village chief, group leader and the people in the territory, and also enjoyed being busy and seeing the harvest process, the lord's team was getting bigger and bigger, and there were more and more things to do, and he was alone Some are too busy.

Taking pity on his ordinary riding horse, he was afraid that it would be exhausted if he ran too much every day.

Luo Ning nodded slowly.

"I understand your situation. There are indeed more and more affairs in Shanlin Town. It is really difficult for you to be responsible for them all."

"One assistant is clearly not enough."

The main reason is that there are still three places, Qingzhu Village, Ziguo Village and Huitu Village, where there are no political officers. Luo Ning needs to ask Wilson to bring out a few people.

"Let's do this. I'll give you five places. You go to the town to recruit five political affairs officer assistants. Each assistant will earn about three copper coins a day. It's best if you can read. If you can't read, arrange other jobs."

Wilson's eyes widened, a little overjoyed.

He only needed one assistant, but he didn't expect that the Lord would approve five of them at once.

"Sir, you are so generous!"

Luo Ning chuckled. He was rich now. The five assistants to the political affairs officer added up to only five gold coins a year, which was nothing.

"Let them learn from you. If they perform well, I will arrange for these people to serve as political affairs officers in the three villages in the north. By then, Wilson, I will promote you to the position of 'Government Chief', responsible for seven villages in Shanlin Town." All government affairs in the village.”

"Of course, the salary will also increase." He added.

The political officer is a civilian position he made up, and its position is one level higher than the political officer.

Wilson's eyes sparkled after hearing this, and this sentence alone swept away his recent fatigue.

He had long seen the extraordinary qualities of the lord in front of him.

Although he is currently trapped in Hillwood Town and is just a little baron, Wilson believes that sooner or later Ronin will get out.

He was very worried about whether the lord would stay here as the political officer of the town if he left Shanlin Town in the future.

But now that the lord has said this, it means that he will have the opportunity to follow Luo Ning's footsteps out of this mountain town and go out into the wider world to make a name for himself.

"Don't worry, Sir, Wilson will definitely live up to your expectations!"
