I Have a Dragon Island - Chapter 556

[Chapter 556: Frightened to Death]

Although the castle still looked a bit shabby, it was no longer without a place to stand.

After coming back, Old Mike went straight to meet Yu Bu.

“Have all the corn seeds been distributed?” Yu Bu asked without raising his head as he flipped through the information about Thunder Town.

“Yes, my Lord.”

“Um.”

Yu Bu nodded slowly and then closed the large booklet in front of him.

Dust suddenly flew in his face, and Yu Bu’s face was full of disgust, and he was too tired to complain.

He turned around and looked at the glowing old Mike. Although he was puzzled, he still said, “Give the order. From now on, the tax rate in Thunder Town will be reduced to 30%. Oh, by the way, also inform the servants that the salary will be changed to eight…two silver coins a day.”

Yu Bu originally wanted to follow the old practices of Fengming Town, but then he thought that the gap was too big and he wondered if the old man in front of him would be so excited that he would faint.

So he modified what he was about to say and claimed that the daily salary would be two silver coins.

On the side, Old Mike was still immersed in fantasy.

When food was being distributed, he boldly tried to eat a corn seed in response to everyone’s request.

The sweet taste lingered in his mouth, making him reluctant to leave.

So when he heard Yu Bu’s words, he was stunned for a long time before finally reacting.

“Oh…oh…wha, what?!!”

Old Mike suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Yu Bu. He felt as if he was struck by lightning, and his ears were buzzing.

Afterwards, he was gasping for breath and fell headfirst, losing consciousness.

“…”

Yu Bu watched all this in silence. He released his mental power, and after making sure that Old Mike was fine, he rang the bell beside him.

Ding ding ding.

The sound is clear and pleasant; it is the bell to call the servants.

Not long after the sound stopped, a servant walked up to the second floor and stood in front of the Baron’s office.

“Respected Lord. What can I do for you?”

The person who came was no longer Leah, but a male servant in the castle.

Yu Bu knew that the man’s name was Mark and he was the gardener in the castle.

Now a group of maids were boiling water and cooking according to Yu Bu’s instructions, but they had no time to come up and serve him.

Mark was very frightened.

Just when he was taking care of the lord’s flower garden downstairs, he suddenly heard a loud bang coming from the second floor of the castle.

Then there was the sound of ringing bells.

Although Mark didn’t dare to face Yu Bu, if he deliberately delayed, he would definitely be whipped.

Thinking of this, he had no choice but to go upstairs trembling with fear.

But at this moment, Mark saw the figure lying down in the Baron’s office, and he couldn’t help feeling terrified.

“Old, Old Mike… is he dead? Did he violate the Lord’s authority and be punished?!”

…

Even after carrying Old Mike downstairs, Mark was still a little frightened.

He was sweating profusely and finally managed to place Old Mike on a wooden chair. He was gasping for breath and his heart was about to beat out of his chest.

Just at this moment, a hoarse voice was heard, and it was Old Mike who woke up.

Mark was shocked when he saw this.

“Old Mike, you’re not dead?!”

“Huh? What?” Old Mike was a little confused the moment before, but the next moment he slapped Mark on the head.

“Tell me who’s dead!”

Mark held his head, feeling very aggrieved.

“I thought you were beaten to death by the Baron.”

When he heard the word “Baron”, Old Mike’s cloudy eyes suddenly brightened.

“Oh my God!” He exclaimed, scaring Liya who was holding afternoon tea!
