Werther returned home dejected, and until this time the smell of mints remained in his mouth.

He's been hooked on this nostalgic taste.

After eating the mints, he even felt that the smell in his mouth was full of sweetness when he spoke, it was almost as if he had kissed a girl—didn't the bards say that the feeling of kissing a girl was sweet......

As for what Donn said, collecting mint grass can be exchanged for silver coins and mints?

Cut, he didn't believe it, how could there be such a good thing in the world?

It must be a lie!

"I'm back......"

As soon as Werther opened the door, he saw his father and mother sitting at the table and discussing something in a whisper, but he didn't care, and went straight back to the house.

“…… Do you think the lord's announcement is true? ”

"I don't know, but since it was issued by the lord, it should be true......"

"Collect mint grass to exchange for silver coins? What the hell is the lord thinking? The mint grass mentioned in the announcement is the one that grows by the river, right? It's everywhere, so why send someone to collect it? ”

"Who knows? The lord may have his plans, everyone has just escaped from the fear of the bandits, and he may want everyone to have something to do. ”

"No matter, it's good to give it a try, if you can really exchange it for silver coins, it would be great!"

Witt suddenly stopped, his face uncertain: "Dad, Mom, are you talking about a new announcement issued by the lord?" ”

"Yes, as long as you collect mint grass, you can exchange it for silver coins, and there is a lord's signature on it, it should be ...... Hey? Werther, why are you going? ”

"I'll go out for a while!"

Werther picked up the bag next to him and turned around and ran, rushed out of the house and went straight to the Emerald River, and when he came to the Emerald River, Werther was stunned.

At this moment, there are already many people collecting mint grass by the Emerald River!

"Brother Werther!"

Marshall was very happy to see Werther, raised his hand and shouted.

Witt ran over, Marshall pulled up the bag in his hand and showed off: "Brother Witt, I've collected a lot, although I don't know how many kilograms there are, but I can definitely get mints!" ”

Witt took a closer look, the bag in his hand was almost full, and the other people around him were similar, and the original dense mint grass was much less.

Witt is in a hurry, if the mint grass makes them shine, then how can he earn silver coins!?

At that moment, Witt didn't care about talking to Marshall anymore, and rushed directly to the side and began to collect mint grass.

Children born in Ellington will help the family from an early age, and they are good at collecting wild vegetables and everything, and it is certainly not a problem to collect mint grass.

And under the constraints of Don's decree, they didn't dare to be too ruthless, but left the roots, and they could collect them again after a while.

On the banks of the river, all the people who had nothing to do were in full swing, and a few homeless people who had been in Ellington all year round were busy here, hoping to get some silver coins and buy a few bread to fill their stomachs.

Not far away, Don observed all this, and his heart was satisfied.

With the motivation to make money, these people have a goal in life, and their spirits are different after they get busy.

"Big brother, can I also collect mint grass to earn silver coins for mints?"

Elijah watched with excitement as everyone was busy there, and she was a little eager to try it.

Tang En originally wanted to say that with me taking care of you, you don't have to earn silver coins to eat mints, but after thinking about it, he smiled and said, "Yes, if Ilia wants to eat mints, she has to work hard herself." ”

"Hmm!"

Illya nodded vigorously, then ran down and picked mint grass with a few friends.

Don smiled.

He didn't want to spoil Illya too much, there were too many examples of this on the earth, even if a genius child was spoiled, it would be difficult for him to grow up in the future.

If he just blindly protects and spoils Elija, she will have no ability to be independent when she encounters difficulties in the future.

What's more, now her friends are using their own efforts to make money, and she can sit back and enjoy it, which invisibly draws a line between her and her friends, and over time, she and her friends are estranged, which is not a good thing.

Working together and sharing the joy together can quickly enhance the relationship between them, and at the same time, it will also allow Eliya to understand others in her labor, making it easier for everyone to accept her.

In short, it's a good thing to kill multiple birds with one stone.

In the evening, Fiona sent a table in front of the lord's house to buy mint grass according to Donne's order, and Don made a scale for her to measure the mint grass.

Seeing this situation, the residents of Ellington, who had been extremely nervous, were relieved and knew that the lord was really planning to buy mint grass, and a happy smile appeared on their faces.

It was Tang En, who was startled when he saw them all in large and small bags, originally he thought that these people would get bored if they didn't collect much, but he didn't expect them to do it until this time.

"Danny, three points eight kilograms, here are three silver coins and eighty copper coins, please put them away."

Fiona Maria put away the mint grass, and then handed the coin to Danny, who jumped up excitedly after receiving the money: "Yay! That's great! Tonight's drink money is here! ”

Danny's mother, Aunt Sandra, grabbed Danny: "What a wine money!" Leave it to me for safekeeping! ”

Danny suddenly wanted to cry without tears: "Mom! How can you do that! ”

"This is for your good, save money for you to marry a daughter-in-law!"

After Aunt Sandra finished speaking, she put the mint grass she had collected on the scale, and looked at Fiona with a nervous expression.

"Two points and four kilograms, two silver coins and forty copper coins, Aunt Sandra, please take them."

Aunt Sandra immediately smiled, and in just one afternoon, she had earned two silver coins, and forty copper coins, which was simply unthinkable when Hogg was in office!

"Your lord, what a good man!"

Aunt Sandra said happily, "But what's the use of the lord's purchase of this mint grass?" If the lord loses money to help us, we don't want to ......."

Fiona smiled and was just about to answer, when she saw Betty behind Aunt Sandra, smiled, and said, "You'll know by looking at the side." ”

Sandra stood to the side, a little confused, and then saw Betty tugging at a bag and placing it on the scales with some difficulty.

"Four-and-a-half-kilogram!"

Fiona exclaimed, "Little girl, you are so capable! ”

Betty's face turned red.

"Four silver coins and fifty copper coins, how do you want to exchange them?"

Betty said nervously, "I'd like to exchange two of these silver coins for mints, is that okay?" ”

"Yes."

Fiona smiled and took twenty mints for Betty, and handed them to her along with the silver coins, "Put it away." ”

Betty took the mint candy and stuffed one directly into her mouth, with a happy expression on her face, and then left happily.

"Mints?"

Aunt Sandra looked confused: "What's that?" One is worth ten copper plates! ”

Similar questions appeared in the hearts of many people at the same time, with the exchange, several children exchanged mints, and finally a few adults were curious, exchanged some mints, but as soon as they tasted it, they were immediately stunned.

More and more people are succumbing to the charm of mints, but most of the people who actually exchange mints are children, and for adults, they have to think more, and it is more important for them to exchange them for silver coins to subsidize their families.

But children are different, they have no ability to make money in the first place, and now they have earned money with their own labor, except for a part of it taken home, and the rest can be used freely by themselves, which is of course a good thing.

Don En hid aside and quietly observed, especially Elija, after an afternoon of work, Elijah was standing in the team at the moment, talking and laughing with her friends beside her, and the adults next to her seemed to be used to it, and there was no special reaction.

It seems to be working well.

Don thought for a moment and walked out.

"Your Lord!"

"Your Lord!"

A series of voices sounded outside, and at the moment they called Don En, but they meant it.

This made Donn very emotional, just a little favor made them support themselves so much, if, just if, Ellington's development is more prosperous, how should they react? Are they willing to defend Ellington with their lives?

"Excuse me, everyone."

Don waved his hand, smiled at Elijah, and then said aloud, "Everyone may be a little confused, why did I buy mint grass. ”

The following immediately fell silent, waiting for Donn's answer.

"Peppermint grass, as many people know, grows by the Emerald River, grows a lot, and has a very special smell, but everyone doesn't know that this peppermint grass is edible, and its juice is also useful."

Don said with a smile: "Yes, Ellington is very poor, but we are not poor, we have rich land and many treasures here, as long as you find it with your heart, you can find something very valuable." ”

"Peppermint grass is one of them."

Donn exclaimed, "I have good news for you, soon, Ellington will set up a workshop, I call it the Ellington Confectionery Factory, and when the time comes, anyone who wants to work will have a job of their own, and I promise that you can earn a lot of gold coins, so that everyone can have no worries about food and clothing, and be proud to be a part of Ellington!" ”

"At the same time, I would like to announce one thing, the day after tomorrow, Ellington's 1,232 farmers will be able to receive agricultural subsidies, and this agricultural subsidies will not be distributed to you for the purpose of replacing your farm tools - but at that time, all farmers who have received subsidies will be able to go to Edgar's blacksmith shop and receive a set of iron farming tools for free!"

Outcry!

Astound!

Almost everyone can't believe their ears!

What did they hear?

The lord paid for the replacement of iron farming tools for them!?

The gods are above...... Is this true!?
