Chapter 129 Leaving the Tribe

The return of Dagu and others caused a sensation in this small tribe.

The tribe near the northern province was actually formed by a group of people who were excluded by the barbarians.

Due to historical reasons, they were extremely poor.

Except for a life, they had nothing.

This time, serving the earl's military service was not much different from being dead in the eyes of the barbarians.

In the past, few soldiers who were recruited by the barbarian lords came back alive.

Even if they came back alive, they brought back all kinds of oppression and miserable news.

But Dagu and his group came back intact, and also brought back a bundle of linen and a bag of copper coins.

So they were quickly surrounded, and everyone was eager to know their experience.

"Dagu, have you seen the earl?"

This is curiosity.

"This knife looks so thick."

This is envy.

"Dagu, give me the linen, and I will marry you my girl."

This is preparing to recruit a son-in-law.

Dagu was surrounded in the middle, and it was the first time he was so popular.

He told his experience to the tribesmen over and over again, boasting to the utmost.

The earl was generous and the knight was powerful.

The previous grievances seemed to be forgotten at this time.

Even under the voices of everyone's pursuit, he straightened his chest and was proud to serve the earl.

The lively crowd was separated, and the headman Guli came out.

He seriously glanced at the soldiers returning home, saw the linen and copper coins, and saw the saber on Dagu's waist.

Of course, these guys looked stronger, and their spirits were completely different.

They were definitely not deserters.

The always serious headman also smiled: "Good boy, you have grown stronger. Come to me for a drink tonight and tell me about the situation with the earl."

Guli was very curious about Count Augusta, and he was a mixed-blood, so he was naturally closer to the Rockman.

Seeing that the pattern of the wilderness was about to change, he couldn't help but make changes.

Seeing that everyone was surrounding him, he even took the initiative to help Dagu drive away the tribesmen who were watching.

"What are you looking at? I will send you all to the next Count's conscription."

The crowd dispersed, and Dagu returned home.

At night, the headman roasted two lamb legs and entertained the returning soldiers.

He curiously asked Dagu and others why they returned, and was very emotional: "It's still Count Augusta. This demeanor is incomparable to those great lords."

To be honest, with the strength and means shown by Count Augusta, it would be abnormal for those barbarian lords to be able to do it.

Guli had some ideas, and after asking about the situation of the barbarian army, he became more determined.

Dagu and others were still resting at home, and Guli went out with a few slaves the next day.

The villages and towns in Melgen Province were naturally considered in the planning of location issues.

The first batch of villages and towns were actually a supply line, like nails nailed to the ground.

With these villages and towns as radiation points, rule this piece of land that has not been fully domesticated.

The barbarian chiefs were forced to surrender a part of their population, but most of them were afraid of force, not that it was profitable.

In fact, most barbarians would stay as far away from the Rockman villages and towns as possible, fearing that they would be wiped out by the Rockman army if they caused conflicts.

The village closest to Guli's tribe is called Wangbei Town, which is the first stop in the Melgen Province.

Therefore, the most immigrants settled here, and the most merchants came and went, and it was also the most lively.

Nearly a thousand barbarians, more than two thousand immigrants, and merchants came and went, making Wangbei Town a lively place in a short time.

Guli actually came here secretly several times, and each time he saw a different Wangbei Town.

He still had some fear in his heart, but when he thought of Count Augusta and the news brought back by Dagu and others, he mustered up the courage to find the political officer.

Political officer William is also the distant blood of the Ferreira family. Seeing Guli, the chief, he welcomed him very much.

The convenience brought to him by the bloodline has ended at this position. If he wants to climb up next, he needs real political achievements.

Is there anything better than taming the barbarians?

"Respected Guli, what do you want?"

"I want to buy a shop and do some business, just like those merchants."

When he heard that Guli had left the tribe and was ready to integrate into Wangbei Town, William, the political officer, was very excited.

He agreed very straightforwardly: "No problem, I will choose a shop with the best location for you, and the price will also give you the biggest discount.

By the way, what kind of business are you going to do, choose the right goods, so as not to suffer losses."

The enthusiasm of the political officer made Guli more confident. He took out a sack he brought with him: "I am going to sell these ores, furs and some livestock.

I am familiar with the nearby tribes and can receive the cheapest goods."

As a local, regardless of whether he is mixed-blood or rejected by the barbarians, Guli's innate advantages are also incomparable to the Rock people.

The order of Count Augusta is not blindly biased towards the Rock people.

The barbarians also retained a certain degree of autonomy. If the Rock merchants wanted to enter the barbarian tribe without permission, they would be asking for trouble.

Long-term confrontation makes it very difficult to do business.

When William heard this, he thought that this business could continue.

So he immediately entertained them warmly.

He sincerely chose a shop at the entrance of the town, and personally led people to move some shelves and cabinets, and asked people to teach these clumsy barbarians how to do business.

By the way, the news that the barbarians left the tribe was also reported.

Derek naturally saw it first, which was what he wanted to see most.

Barbarians, barbarian hybrids.

At least one or two million people, no less than the population of a small kingdom.

Even in the province of Melgen, there are 200,000 or 300,000 people. How to use them is an important matter.

Population is productivity, this is not just talk.

The barbarians have taken the first step, and they can't let things fall.

Derek personally approved: "Material procurement will give priority to the Guli headman, and the political officer, sheriff, and tax officer will give care."

This is a political task, which overrides economic interests.

It just so happens that this year he will definitely spend the New Year in the province of Melgen, and he can stop by on the way back.

At present, he is still in Swan Castle, meeting the northern nobles coming and going.

This time, not only the nobles from the North, but also some nobles from the Holy Cross Kingdom, the capital and the South, also began to visit.

Although the conflict of interests between the parties was very unpleasant, it did not affect the lower-level nobles' exchanges with the Augusta family.

In fact, because of the Augusta family's momentum, more people were willing to contact him.

For example, the person in front of him.
