Olivia's worries over the past few days were noticed by her group of girlfriends, who all comforted her or gave her advice. Since Ulyan's rise, Olivia's status has risen and she has more and more close friends. Although some women of similar age would secretly envy Olivia's good fortune. But on the surface, no one would reveal a single detail. Olivia is gentle, kind, helpful, and controls the entire village's property. Who can refuse her friendship? Some village girls who are a little more scheming even consciously try to curry favor with him. After all, the Hewan is becoming more and more prosperous. Once Ulian is successfully canonized as a pioneer knight, Olivia will be a true noble lady. When Olivia gets married, she will be the lord's wife. At that time, let alone becoming a friend of a noble lady or a lord's wife, even being her maid would be ten times better than being a village woman working in the fields. So as soon as Olivia revealed her troubles, at least ten village girls of the same age who were on good terms with her came over to comfort her and have private conversations with her.
Some of the women's statements were outrageous, but some made sense. Agata even opened up directly and talked about her feelings as someone who had experienced it. Before Ulian retired and returned to the village, Agata's father-in-law was the head of the village, responsible for collecting taxes for the knight and managing the village. My husband is the head of the militia and controls the armed forces of the entire village. Her own family was also a wealthy family in the neighboring village, and they gave her some silver jewelry and two big fat pigs as a dowry when she got married. So when in the North, Agatha was the real landlord's daughter, even more outstanding than Olivia who had not yet grown up. Unfortunately, a raiding group of orcs invaded and killed her family and took away most of their property. Only Agata, who was looking for piglets in the haystack, survived by holding two little black pigs. It can be said that Olivia’s current situation is exactly the same as Agatha’s back then. If Leo died in battle and the alien coalition forces attacked the river bend, Olivia would have no choice but to escape like Agata, holding the two little dog-headed men. So Agata told Olivia earnestly that when Leo came back, she should give him a son as soon as possible. Once you have a son, you won’t always be focusing on thinking about men. There is no need to be like her and take her two pig sons as spiritual support. Olivia agreed with this, but Uliyan never mentioned marriage, and she didn't have the nerve to urge him. After a few days of psychological torture, she decided to take the initiative! But she was thin-skinned and her attack power was limited. Those obscure words with deep meanings could not wake up the brainless Leo at all. For several days, Leo lived in Olivia's weird mood. As a straight man, Leo never thought about this. The two of them are lying on the same bed, so what's so difficult about talking about marriage?
He just felt that he was too young and it was too early. Uliyang is a very busy man and has no time to take care of his love life. As the ruler of Hewan, in addition to supervising various projects and issuing various instructions, he also had to travel back and forth between the three camps to coordinate the conflicts among the three parties. The villagers in the three camps are not easy to deal with, and it is impossible to have no conflicts. The villagers of Hewan are very territorial and fear that the new population will encroach on their interests. The Langya people are wild and unruly, have their own ideas and rules, and look down on the farmers and refugees in the river bend. The refugees were rejected by the villagers and the wild people. They lacked a sense of belonging and just wanted to eat and wait for death, and have some fun at the same time. Wuliyang not only had to reconcile various conflicts, but also had to find ways to improve their production enthusiasm, which made him so worried that his hair turned white. As the population of River Bend increased, the problem of talent shortage was also exposed. Apart from Ulian, Leo and Olivia, there were almost no capable internal affairs talents. Even if there was, there would not be enough prestige to overwhelm everyone in a short period of time. Like the deputy commander of the infantry regiment, Vichy, one of Ulyanov's designated knight attendants, he was a qualified officer but also had difficulty handling various civil disputes. In the military camp, he could hang up and beat the militiamen who were causing trouble without saying a word. After leaving the military camp, he didn't know where to start when faced with the old and weak villagers who were crying and shouting. There are also infantry squad leaders such as Wu Jin and Moros, who have gained a certain prestige and have some say in the three camps. But they were originally gangsters in the village, so they were thankful that they could control themselves, and they didn't care about others. In this regard, Olivia also seemed a little indecisive. She is an excellent logistics officer and territory manager. She manages the flow of materials and manpower allocation in Hewan with ease, and handles most of the internal affairs well. When it comes to civil disputes, people are often hesitant due to their kindness, wanting to avoid offending both parties and get a perfect result. Obviously, such an outcome is impossible. No matter how fair and reasonable it is, there will always be one party or even both parties who feel they have been disadvantaged. So during this period of time, Leo, who had some free time, often stayed by her side to share the pressure. He was wearing a torn linen shirt, holding the hilt of the sword, and he and the little mouse stood on the left and right of the busy Olivia to intimidate the villagers. His reputation as an outstanding general and a terrible villain turned the villagers from all three parties and the kobolds into good kids. Whenever three villagers gathered together to chat, they would disperse when they saw Leo. Whenever there is a group of children playing happily, they will line up and be inspected when they see Leo. Even the savages had to bow their heads when they saw Leo. The eyes of those young boys and girls from the wild people were even more eager, as if they were a group of fans chasing a star. They admire the strong more, and Leo, who is almost the same age as them, is the most ideal object of worship. If there really is a conflict among villagers, Leo can resolve it with just a few words.
And teach Olivia: You don’t need both parties to feel that it is fair and reasonable, you just need to make the villagers watching feel that it is fair and reasonable! Fairness is fairness for the majority. If a minority feels it is unfair, let them deal with it themselves or make up for it in other ways. With Leo's assistance and guidance, Olivia handled civil affairs more efficiently. At this time, the little mouse was the most proud, and there was nothing better than a fox taking advantage of the tiger's might. And sister Olivia said that among the left and right guards, her status is higher than Leo! Because Leo was unwilling to help her look at the account book or count, the clever little mouse was able to do it. Sister Olivia also secretly said that when the dog-headed men grew up, they would fire Leo and let the dog-headed man who was best at writing and counting be promoted to be the little mouse's assistant. The villagers' children, who usually looked down on her or refused to play with her, now looked at her with envy. The old people in the village said that black hair and black eyes are the blood of the devil and the embodiment of the curse. Although the children didn't believe it, they didn't want to get into trouble. So the little mouse can often only play with the little dog-headed man. These godsons of Olivia regard the little mouse as their big sister and obey her every word. In addition to internal affairs, Ulyaan also has to deal with diplomacy. The threat from the river bend is not only from the north, but also serious in other directions. Ulian had to travel back and forth between the river bend and Isenpol, and frequently discuss with several knight lords such as Rigolav who cared about their homeland to deal with the problems of refugees and bandits.
