These days, wives deliver to their door by themselves

"Everyone is looking at me!"

Under Du Wei's roar, the rabbits snuggled together in panic.

"Listen to me, you guys. I took you in out of good intentions. If you really don't want to, you can go back on your word now. I won't hold you accountable."

Although Du Wei didn't mind stretching out his hand to give someone a hand, he wouldn't do the thing of putting a hot face on a cold butt.

"Master Du Wei, please calm down, we are just not used to facing foreigners."

"Please forgive us."

"Yes, I'm sorry, we didn't mean to do this, but we just lost our home and relatives, and we really can't be happy."

Looking at the rabbitmen kneeling down and begging for mercy, Du Wei couldn't help but soften his heart.

"That's enough, everyone stand up, now I have to pay attention to everything I have to explain, guys with farming experience raise their hands."

Soon a dozen or so rabbitmen raised their hands, but the number was fewer than he expected.

Originally, I expected that adults should have some experience in farming, but most of the people who raised their hands were women, but only a few men raised their hands.

Du Wei asked the village chief.

"What's going on here, don't you men farm?"

The village head said.

"The men in the village are mostly in charge of hunting, while the work of farming is left to the women."

"...a carnivorous rabbit?"

"Cough cough."

John leaned close to Du Wei's ear and whispered.

"Master, basically the eating habits of the orc tribe are the same as that of humans, don't be confused by their orc symbol."

So, he thought the rabbitman was a herbivorous creature who could only eat vegetarian.

"I see, but I don't need your hunting skills. After this time, you all have to become farmers. It doesn't matter if you don't know how to farm. I will send someone to teach you planting skills."

At this time, a female bunny raised her hand weakly to ask a question.

"What are we going to plant?"

"Good question!"

Du Wei pushed the non-existent air glasses and shouted.

"That's watermelon and pumpkin!"

The meaning of Du Wei's opening of the workshop is to mass-produce healing potions and iron golems, and the more watermelons and pumpkins are used as raw materials for the two, the better.

"That... you said we haven't planted it, just in case..."

Du Wei waved his hand to interrupt the female rabbit man.

"Don't worry, these two crops are easy to grow, even if they fail, it doesn't matter."

The goal of the first year is mainly to let them get used to farming, cultivate their relationship, and when the time is right, take out shares to speed up their efficiency.

"Also! Some people will be assigned to raise animals, and there will be someone to teach you then."

"Yes, yes, we understand."

The main thing is cows. He has not had much milk in stock. Du Wei has long wanted to build a ranch.

But the size of the cows is a bit too big, so the ranch has to wait for him to find an opportunity to expand in the future. If Mei Ye saw a bunch of cows running out of the backyard, she would probably faint directly.

"By the way, there is one more important thing! Don't call me adults or young masters in the future."

The village chief was puzzled.

"Huh? Then what shall we call you?"

"Of course it's in the style of an orc. From now on, I'll be called the chief, how pleasant it sounds."

"..."

Everything was settled, Du Wei waved his arms towards the teleportation circle.

"Let's go, let's go home!"

The transmitted light flashed by, and what was re-reflected in front of him was his familiar hometown.

"I, Du Wei, are back!"

"Du Wei, come here and let me take a good look at you."

"Mother mother!"

Mei Ye, who came to meet him, knelt down and opened her hands, Du Wei naturally got into her arms and acted like a baby.

Mei Ye pinched his face and smiled.

"Why does it feel like you've gained weight again?"

...This is all Xiaojin's fault. She has cooked too many delicious dishes, and the quantity is amazing every time.

"Where is your father?"

Du Wei looked around, and it seemed that only Mei Ye came to greet him, not even Edith.

"Your father went to a neighboring country with Edith, and he won't be back until some time later."

To a neighboring country?This is not an easy task, because the neighboring country cannot rely on the teleportation circle to reach it, and it will take more than a month to go back and forth from the vast Farwen territory to the nearest neighboring country.

It's just that Du Wei doesn't understand why Huo Weide went to a neighboring country?

Mei Ye read the question in his mind.

"They're going to sign a trade agreement."

"Trade agreement? But haven't we always been in trade?"

Since Knox declared the armistice, the number of traveling merchants from various countries in the territory has increased a lot year by year. After all, Knox is one of the superpowers in the Eastern Continent, and the Knox nobles are also famously rich. So what if there was a war a year ago, merchants will not be troubled by money.

Mei Ye explained with a smile.

"This time we signed a maritime trade agreement. Although our Knox has a vast land, none of the aristocratic territories are close to the sea. Therefore, in addition to signing a maritime trade agreement this time, your father is more important to see if you can A neighboring country leases a seaport.”

Rent a seaport?They don't have a navy, why rent a seaport?Forget it, he didn't bother to care if he didn't do his business anyway.

So he changed the subject.

"Has the goblin construction team that Old Oss found for me come?"

Mei Ye shook her head.

"How can it be so fast, not to mention that those dwarves are not from the country, even if they come, they will have to undergo a period of identity checks, I really don't understand you, we have our own construction team in Farwen City, why do we have to go? You can't find a dwarf."

"Hey hey, I just want to see what they look like!"

"I really can't do anything about you. Come to the mansion first. The family has held a small banquet for you to celebrate your return home."

"Is there a chocolate cherry cake?"

"...Yes, I have everything you like."

Although Du Wei felt a little lonely without Howard and Edith at the banquet, he still had a happy dinner.

The next day, Sana found him early in the morning.

"Master, there is a letter from Miss Karina."

"Karina's letter? Let me see."

What Karina sent was a pink letter covered in cute floral stickers, which fit her sweet image.

Du Wei carefully cut open the seal with a letter opener, took out the letter paper inside and read the contents carefully.

"Oh? Karina said she would come over in person in a few days! Now it's interesting."

Sana glanced at Du Wei unobtrusively, and secretly remembered his happy expression in her heart. The young master is not young, it's time to stand in line. I don't know who will be the wife among the three ladies. At present, it seems to be Miss Karina Most promising.

"By the way, master, John said that the rabbits are all settled."

"Really? Then what are they doing now?"

"According to your previous instructions, the rabbit man is digging the soil in the back mountain under the leadership of the gardener in the mansion."

Although the facade of their Faerwen mansion is very gorgeous, the back hill behind the mansion is hardly used, and it even looks a bit desolate.

It is said that the area used to be full of farmland and livestock, but as the power of the Farwin family grew, the original small manor has now been renovated into a castle-like mansion. Their descendants have long been able to maintain without relying on the income of the manor. The family livelihood, so a large piece of land in the backyard has been vacant until now.

Du Wei talked to himself while thinking.

"Farming can start after the soil is dug, Sana, have you bought the New Year's gifts for the servants?"

Sana shook her head.

"Not yet, I'll send someone to buy it later."

"Need not."

Du Wei jumped off the chair and patted the dust on his buttocks.

"Idle is also idle. I happened to go out for a stroll and bring them back."

Sana reminded.

"Master, your study session today is not over yet."

Gee.

"Sana, let me tell you, there is a saying that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. Going out is also a kind of learning!"

"...Don't say I didn't persuade you when you get scolded by your wife."

Du Wei waved his hand and didn't care.

"Relax, isn't mother going to have a party with other ladies this afternoon? Why don't we set off after she leaves?"

"Then I'll go tell John to make preparations in advance."

078 He is the only one in the whole world without a sister

In the afternoon, while Mei Ye was going out to attend the lady's afternoon tea party, Du Wei slipped out of the building with his dogs.

A luxury carriage and a dozen guards riding black horses swaggered towards the main city of Farwen.

"How many new servants are there this year?"

Every winter, servants will leave the museum due to various reasons such as retirement or marriage, and of course there will be new candidates to fill the vacant positions.

Sana, who was sitting next to Du Wei, looked worried.

"The number of people who left this year is quite large, but the number of people who came in is a bit small. I heard from the head maid that this year, only less than ten children were added to the maid team."

Although Sana's qualifications are not very senior in the mansion, as Du Wei's first teacher and personal maid, her status among the maids is only inferior to that of the head maid, and she also takes care of other people very well. Li is quite trusted by the younger generation, and if a maid accidentally makes a mistake, she will secretly cry to her.

"Ah? Why are there so few people this year? Isn't our family's welfare always good?"

Although Mei Ye's government regulations are very strict, the salary and benefits offered are also the most generous among the three Dukes of Knox. In addition, many maids are here to serve her, the former princess. There is news that there is a shortage of people in the mansion. Generally speaking, the quota will be full soon. Why are there not many people joining this year.

Sana sighed.

"Young master, do you still remember the earthquake that happened in the imperial capital last time?"

"of course I remember."

"Although the imperial capital and here did not suffer much damage from that earthquake, the Weiss family, one of the three dukes at the center of the earthquake, were not so lucky. The earthquake caused many servant casualties. It is said that their mansion It is still being repaired, so there are a lot of vacancies in the number of their servants."

"So most of the staff went to the Weiss family?"

Sana then added.

"Yes, so this time the other two duke families extended assistance so that the Weiss family can recruit people across the territory."

After all, not everyone can work as a servant in the Duke's Mansion. The higher the family, the more they value appearance. Even the maid has to be a well-educated and elegant child of a noble like Sana.

"That's it, it's impossible."

This is the end of the slightly heavy topic, and Du Wei opened the window of the carriage to get a cool breeze.

The scenery outside the carriage is beautiful, but for Du Wei who has lived here since he was a child, he is already tired of seeing this kind of scene.
