v7 Chapter 2： doubt

When Davers led the mercenaries to retake the city of Amendola, Garad Moss lost his family and refused to be adopted by others because he lost his parents. He lost the opportunity to have a backer. However, there are not many Amendora men who survived the invasion of the Lucanias. The adult, the outstanding citizen of the next generation of Amendora, who is a public official, is even less likely to be afraid of the future. Doral lost the influence of influence in the kingdom, such as Stromboli, Scambras, Cornelus, and the Emmental Lama, who have always cared and cared for the next generation, like Alsinis. (Unfortunately, the young man died young), Melishanda, Garad Moss, etc. are all their main focus.

It’s just that the current kingdom city governor, although much more powerful than when the alliance was first established, there are two and a half system officials in each city that they are not under the jurisdiction: tax officials, both primary and secondary, are Directly under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Finance, with the jurisdiction of the finance minister, directly responsible for the king; the other is the judge, appointed by the Supreme Court of the Kingdom to various cities, whether it is trial or judgment, no interference from other people and departments; They are military training officers. They are appointed by the various military training stations and are ultimately under the jurisdiction of the Military Affairs Department. The local chief executives are not allowed to intervene in military affairs. However, every time a city or region organizes large-scale military training, it involves countless citizens who want to lay down their farmland. Under the complicated public affairs, it is bound to create some disorder of local government affairs. The two sides must coordinate and solve the problem. Therefore, the training officer and the local chief executive are cooperative relations, which can only be regarded as half.

Although Stromboli could not intervene in taxation, he sent a patrol team to arrest the most troubled people and severely warned the village chief of Pros de Momo: he must immediately calm the troubles of the village people, otherwise he would act Incapable of "criminal", forcibly removed the position of the village chief who did not act.

At the same time, he also wrote directly to the royal palace of Turui, and reported the ins and outs of this matter to King Davers.

After reading Daves, he did not make much emotional reaction. He just called Finance Minister Melsis and transferred the letter to him.

Melsis, who has been guarding the treasury for more than a decade, is so irritating. He immediately sent a confidant to Naxos to thoroughly investigate the truth, collect evidence, and prepare to attend Rao at the Senate meeting. Di Xi'an filed an allegation.

When Mercy's men had just boarded the ship at the port, La Odesian got the news. He immediately rushed to the palace and asked to see Davers. He sincerely said: I have been in Turui for a long time, I don’t know Naxos. The situation at home is also not clear about the details of the tax. Since the tax official pointed out the problems, he is willing to abide by the Tax Law and make double compensation.

Due to the timely service of La Odesian, the storm quickly subsided: Melsis asked Daphus to withdraw the Naxos Intermediate Tax Officer on charges of “dereliction of duty” and praised him. The Garad model's "adherence to principles, loyalty to duty" and gave him a generous reward.

This incident was spread in Naxos, and many people thought that Garad Moss was favored by King Davers, and no one had ever killed his work.

At this moment, Garad Moss took the two tax collectors onto a gentle **** and entered the field of La Odrian's house.

It is now at the end of August, the wheat is basically mature, and the half-faced hillside is dyed into a golden color. The hot sun and the heavy wheat ears do not bend the straw, and the flowing water in the field gives them the strength to stand up.

Seeing this situation, Garad Moss couldn’t help but feel happy: “This year seems to be another bumper year!”

"Since the rebuilding of Naxos, most of the decade has been a bumper year, Demuel and Persephone are really blessing us!" Kabanaks said with exclamation.

"This is all the great Daves's credit! He is the son of Hades, and will let these two gods always bless our kingdom!" Gabrinus emphasized that as a young man of Naxos He has a stronger sense of identity with the Kingdom of Dionia.

Since the integration of the eastern and central coasts of Sicily into the Kingdom of Dionia, the Hades faith has also spread. Since the Sicilian Greeks praised Demeter and Persephone, the priests of Hades went to the Romans to bring the two goddesses into the gods of Hades (Pelseyfone is the posthumous, Demeter is both the sister of Hades and his mother-in-law. Therefore, beside the Temple of Hades built in the territory of Dionysian Sicily, Demuel Temple must be built, and Persephone is in the Temple of Hades.

After the Hades celebrations in September, followed by the Harvest Festival, the people offered sacrifices to the two goddesses, thanking them for their blessings, which later turned to the Great Greece.

Just as the two of them sighed, Garad Moss was carefully examining the boundary pillars at the edge of the field and using the naked eye to estimate the area of ​​the field.

"La Odesian, 78 acres of good land, good harvest..." Garad Moss finally confirmed.

Gabrinus was busy drawing a picture on a book nailed with papyrus.

Garad Moss once again looked at the field of La Odrian's house, and was slightly surprised: the labor in the field is mostly the West Kel!

Wheat is harvested quickly, and it needs to be guarded: first, to drive away the birds that are stolen; second, to prevent the destruction of beasts and man-made; third, to encounter a persistent cold wind or other natural disasters, you must urgently grab.

There is still a lot of work to be guarded by the large farmland area of ​​La Odrian, and the difference between the Western Kyle and the Greeks can be distinguished at a glance.

“Adults, many Naxos citizens who have landed more land hired the Sikels to work as laborers during the harvest season. Even the city’s workshop owners like to hire them, and the workers in the port... who called their pay It’s cheaper and not subject to the laws of the kingdom.” Kabanaks saw the doubts of Galadmos and explained that his family lived in another Demo, in the northwest of the Naxos territory, with the west. The Kiel people are bordered, so they know more about this situation: "And the West Kel people are not like us. Their land is concentrated in the hands of the nobility and the chiefs. The ordinary people become their employers, and the rations they earn in a year. It is more difficult to feed a family. It is better to hire a Naxos as a hired worker. I heard that some Western Kyrgyz people also want to register with the City Hall Registration Office and want to be a citizen of our kingdom. Unfortunately, the towns and kingdoms of the West Kyle. The signed friendship agreement stipulates that 'the West Kel people should not be accepted as Dionian citizens'..."

“Not all towns in West Kyle are like this. I can hear that in the middle of Sicily, the city of Kefalo Idion also distributes land to the people like ours, even the other city-states. Many of the West Kelmen also rushed to Kay Fayot, "Gabrinus said.

Kabanaks retorted: "I heard that Kefaro Ioian is a small mountain town. How much land can I have? It is good for it to solve the land of its own people. More West Kiel people are still in us. Naxos, Sikuri, Katanay, and Leotini act as laborers and hired workers. It is important to know that several security officials in the city have repeatedly protested against the adults of Stromboli, who think these Sikelians Snatched the livelihoods of the registered free people in Naxos and demanded that they be expelled from the country..."

"Those security officers have protested against the problems of the Sikels every year, and even heard that they have made suggestions to Mr. Daphus at the Warrior General Assembly in Turui, but they have not seen much change -" "Gabrinus' words were interrupted by Garad Moss: "We do things within our responsibilities, don't discuss these irrelevant things!" ”

"Yes, adults." The two men woke up, not because they discussed the high Dave Kings, but because they were afraid of being heard by Naxos’s security officials. These security officials tried their best to reflect their value. Maintaining the rights and interests of civilians, citizens, and even free people, from time to time with the local council and the city hall, they do not want to get into this group of "mad dogs."

"Go, go back." Garad Moss turned to the hillside.

At this moment, Gabrinus suddenly pointed to the front and said: "Adult, two slaves came out behind the mountain."

Garad Moss turned and looked at it. I saw two almost naked, dark-skinned men on the top of the mountain hurried down, but when they reached the mountainside, they saw standing in the field and wearing Burton. Garad Moss three (the kingdom official Bolton has a special suit and stripes ~ www.novelhall.com ~ can be distinguished at a glance), suddenly stopped, his face showed a panic color, and finally turned to Running on the top of the mountain.

"Stand up!" Garrad Moss was suspicious and immediately shouted.

Who knows that the two ran faster, how could the three bureaucrats wearing Bolton possibly catch up, and in a blink of an eye, the two slaves ran across the top of the mountain and disappeared without a trace.

"Damn!" Gabrinus looked at the gloomy, rolling hills behind the mountain, snorted, pulled the corners of his clothes, wiped the sweat from his face, and handed the water bladder to his back. Demos.

Garad Moss unscrewed the stopper, but did not drink immediately, but asked: "Whose slave is this?"

"It must be La Othidian's family!" Kabanaks analyzed: "Adult, you see, this mountainside to the foot of the mountain is the land of La Othian's family, completely blocking the way up the mountain, if it is other homes The slaves, they would not go here at all, but the two slaves came directly to the field before seeing us, and they did not worry that they would be blocked by the La Othian slaves."

Garad Moss nodded and asked, "Why did they see us running?"
