Chapter 105 The New Master’s Debut

The old butler was tied down and kept shouting, asking Hardy not to tie him in front of Madam Sissi, at least to give him some dignity.

Two local officials were shivering and wiping sweat away.

Hardy's heartbreaking move made the two of them extremely scared.

Hardy's eyes fell on the two officials, and they subconsciously straightened their bodies and tried to behave better.

"What kind of punishment do you want?" Hardy asked as he spread honey on the bread.

Both local officials dared not speak.

"The three of you have managed the entire Hukaro City for sixteen years without any trouble, and you have worked hard without any credit. According to my personal opinion, it is not a big deal to reward each of you with one or two hundred gold coins. .”

The two officials were overjoyed when they heard this.

“But taking something without telling you is stealing.” Hardy thought for a moment and said, “What you stole is the owner’s property, and it shouldn’t be the case.”

The two officials looked sad.

Hardy thought for a while and said: "I remember that among the family rules of Jeanne's family, there is a kind of whipping."

The Sheriff gritted his teeth and whispered: "Your Excellency, there is indeed a kind of whipping. "

Hardy nodded and said. Said: "I thought of a way. One gold coin counts for one lash. You guys stole about 190 gold coins. I am a kinder person, so I will give you 180 lashes."
< br>Hearing this number, both of them collapsed on the ground.

Generally speaking, if you receive more than twenty lashes in a row, you will be prepared to kill someone. A hundred and eighty lashes will directly kill someone.

Looking at the desperate two people, Hadi smiled and continued: "Don't worry, you two will not die. One hundred and eighty lashes will be carried out in one month, six lashes every day, you can handle it. ”

After hearing this, the expressions of the two people relaxed a little.

After a short while, the financial officer asked cautiously: "Sir, do we have to pay back the gold coins we got from bribery?"

"Forget it, I am a generous person. Just think of it as your hard work for managing Hukaro City for sixteen years." Hardy finished eating the bread and his expression turned cold: "But if it happens again, you will understand the consequences."

As his strength has improved, he can now mobilize some abilities that can only be used in nightmare form.

For example, a weakened version of the fear aura.

The two local officials were already very scared, but once they were shrouded in this aura of fear, they felt that Hardy was even more intimidating.

It is as if a god of death is standing in front of him, ready to harvest his life at any time.

"For the next month, every day at noon, I will go to the center of the city and receive a caning." Hardy looked at Rogge and said, "You will supervise the execution. You must not let them feel the pain. It affects their normal life the next day.”

Roger nodded.

The two local officials breathed a sigh of relief.

Six lashes a day are within what they can bear.

After the two local officials helped each other and left, Hardy said: "Roger, you have collected and recorded the ashes of the brothers."

Speaking of this matter, Rogge's expression, which was quite happy just now, also became disappointed.

Two hundred brothers set out from Hexi County happily, but now there are a group of people missing.

Although the master has given enough pensions and subsidies, if the person is gone, he is gone after all.

“Some of the pension amounts have not been calculated yet, and some brothers who are less able to move are still recuperating.”

“I understand, you stay here for a month first, When the whipping is over, when the seriously injured brothers have almost recovered, you We will take dozens of brothers and escort the brothers with limited mobility back home." Hardy thought for a while and said, "By the way, we will also take their pensions back to their families. No matter what, we have to take them. Go back, even if he turns into a little jar."

Roger nodded.

"You have a lot to do recently." Hardy sighed and said: "I still have too few people at my disposal, so I can only work hard for you." Rogge knelt down on one knee with emotion: "No hard work, everything for me It’s all given by the master, and it’s what I should do.”

He himself is a tenant farmer of the Hardy family, and there is no need to question his loyalty.

The next day, a high platform was erected in the square in the center of the city.

Two well-known local officials, naked to the waist, were escorted to a high platform, and then each of them was whipped six times, leaving red marks.

Although it is very painful, it is still within the range that adults can bear.

After that, every day, whether it was windy, rainy or scorching hot, the two local officials would be taken to the high platform and whipped six times at noon.

This whipping not only hit the two local officials, but also hit the hearts of all the 'gentry' in Hukaro City.

After a month of this, everyone in Hukaro City knew one thing.

The new owner is here!

And very harsh.

After that, Hardy’s manor received a lot of invitations.

Roger helped to receive them.

On this day, Rogge placed several invitations in front of Hardy's table.

Hadi ignored the invitations and said: "Tomorrow, you will escort the brothers back to Hexi City. At the same time, you will also recruit some people at home and from the mountain people to maintain the two hundred people. Army size.”

Roger nodded.

Hardy thought for a while and continued: "In addition, inform my butler Jack and the head maid to ask them to come to Hukaro City to help. You are responsible for escorting them here."

Roger wrote this down.

“Also, as I promised before, brothers who are willing to come to Hukaro City to naturalize can bring their relatives over. Only brothers who participated in the battle will have this treatment.”

This matter is very important and is one of the benefits of Hadi's army.

Rogge immediately became excited: "Master, don't worry, I will supervise them well and won't let anyone fool them."

The next day, Rogge took dozens of soldiers with him He left, taking with him several carriages containing disabled soldiers.

And Hardy went to the best hotel in the city.

This is also the property left by Mrs. Sissi back then. It belongs to the Lord's Mansion, so naturally it is Hardy's property.

This is a first-class hotel. At this time, the main hall on the first floor is already full of people, nearly sixty people.

There were uniformly dressed bartenders busy around.

The group of people whispered.

The treasurer and the sheriff also came, but they looked awkward.

Everyone looked at them strangely, with a hint of teasing.

I have no choice but to be flogged for a month in public. Isn’t it normal to lose face?

After a while, Hardy walked in from outside.

Everyone stopped talking, and the hotel suddenly became quiet.

Hadi walked to the main seat and sat down. He looked at the 'gentry' in front and said with a smile: "I am very happy to have so many people here. As the new owner of Hukaro City, I invite everyone to I came here just to talk to you about the future of Hukaro City.”
