With the affairs of the territory settled, Ed returned to a leisurely life. In fact, life needs adjustment. When you are tired from work, proper relaxation can make the work that follows more efficient.
Today is a crisp autumn day, perfect for a long journey. So Ed decides to retrace his steps and stroll leisurely along the newly repaired road.
Of course, he no longer has just one follower, but two.
Ed didn't know who invented the term "little follower." How could such a pretty and cute girl be called a "little follower"?
Looking at the two cheerful girls ahead, chattering away, he felt like he was their biggest follower and a burden to them.
Ed shrugged and straightened his clothes. He struck what he thought was a decent pose and called out to the girl in front of him, "Hey, how much do I still look like I used to?"
Hearing Ed's words, Adelaide turned to look at him, puzzled.
One point
"Hahaha," Ed laughed awkwardly. He was just in a playful mood and didn't mean anything by it.
Carly covered her mouth and chuckled without saying a word, but she was still somewhat surprised by Lord Ed's humor!
"Sister Adelaide, Lord Ed, is this how you usually talk?" Carly was very interested in Ed's daily life. She wanted to see what kind of person someone who managed the territory so well was in his daily life.
Adelaide glanced furtively behind her.
"Carly, you should speak softly in front of Master, or he'll know what you're saying."
Carly was taken aback. Was he really that powerful? They were already quite far apart. If he could hear everything, he would be a god. Did he know about the salt exchange last time? Carly was somewhat skeptical.
Adelaide's eyes darted around as she looked at Carly, who seemed completely unconvinced.
"And another thing! Carly, don't disbelieve me, Master will be calling us to wait for him soon. He probably knows what you just said, and he wants to explain it to you personally."
"Adelaide, Carly, wait for me." Adelaide had barely finished speaking when Ed's voice came from behind.
Carly stared at Adelaide in disbelief.
"Adelaide, what are you talking about? You seem to be having a great time." Ed approached and saw Adelaide smiling.
Carly snapped out of her daze and looked at Adelaide, who was secretly laughing. "Oh no, Sister Adelaide lied to me." Lord Ed had no idea what they were talking about. But how did she know that Lord Ed would call them?
"Carly, are you curious about what I just said? Do you usually act like this?" Ed knew what they were talking about just by looking at Adelaide's expression.
Carly stared at Ed in disbelief. Adelaide stared at Ed in disbelief as well.
Although she was more knowledgeable about Ed, she still hadn't expected this.
Seeing the two men's comical expressions, Ed waved his sleeve and walked over to a road sign.
The road sign was very simple, just a simple wooden board with a wooden stick stuck in the middle of the road.
Ed doesn't plan to make the road signs out of metal yet; he intends to wait until the road is paved with cement.
Ed looked at the road sign and saw a person slowly walking towards him from the nearby Red Iron Village. Ed didn't recognize him; he was probably someone who had just arrived in the territory.
"Ah! Lord, you're here! How do I get to the farm in Peach Blossom Village?" Ed didn't recognize the man, but the man recognized him.
Ed was secretly pleased; you'd come to the right person. He slowly turned the road sign in a different direction.
"Go to Taoyuan Village, take Chenghua Avenue!"
