  Chapter 49 Salary increase

   After two months of such painful and happy days, Jack has undergone changes visible to the naked eye. If he hadn't seen his own appearance while washing his face, Jack would hardly have known that the person in front of him was himself.

  My former self, due to long-term hunger for food, had less than two taels of meat all over his body, and putting on clothes was similar to hanging clothes on a clothes rack.

  But now, with the clothes on her body, she was bulging, and she grabbed her fist, and obvious muscles could be seen on her arms, and there was still flesh on the inner thighs.

  The most obvious thing is the height, at most three feet when he first arrived, and now Jack has secretly measured it, and it is almost four feet. correct! He still learned the unit of feet from his teacher at night. Jack didn't know that there was such a unit of measurement before.

  Jack quietly admired his handsome face, except for a little darker, there are not many shortcomings.

  He hadn't thought about this before. He looked at his face leisurely, thinking about how to find food to take care of his stomach all day long.

   "Jack! Come on, the time is almost up, or the instructor will scold you!" This is his friend in the same bed, urging him to gather.

  His bed was a long plank, twenty feet long and seven feet wide, and each man had his own bedding, and he slept side by side.

   "Here we come! Wait for a while!" Jack carefully tidied up the new clothes that were handed out, and wiped them very preciously, with a look of love on his face.

  For Jack, this is the only new piece of clothing he has worn so far, and there are reasons why he cherishes it.

  Jack ran to Alan in front of him in three steps and two steps, stopped and walked in a row with him.

   "Hey! Alan! What do you think the coach told us to see His Majesty the King?"

   "I don't know! But no matter what he looks like, I only know that he is the benefactor who saved my sister and me!" Allen's face was sincere and grateful.

  Jack expressed his understanding. It is said that Ellen's sister was starving to death at the time, and by luck she came to Windsor Castle to beg, praying for the kindness of the nobles living in this castle.

who knows! Allen and his sister were taken in, and it was later learned that this was His Majesty's castle.

  Since then, Ellen and his sister have always regarded the king as a benefactor.

  In fact, Jack has been here for a long time, and he is also grateful to His Majesty the King, who has never masked his face, especially compared with his previous life, this is heaven.

  The two came to the big grass field where they usually practiced. The foot-long grass was trampled into flat ground by them and turned into weeds.

  At this time, there were more than 2,000 people standing on the big grass. Jack and Allen found their own square team, lined up, and stood in the military posture they had trained for two months.

   It was eight o'clock one after another, and all the orphans had already arrived on the grassland, and no one dared to be absent.

  Edward arrived at Windsor Castle last night. After a night of rest, he was alive and kicking again, returning to his previous appearance.

   I remember that just after returning last night, when he saw the neat rows of wooden houses in front of the castle, he felt endless joy in his heart. These are the cornerstones for him to conquer the British Isles and fight for world hegemony in the future!

   "Uncle Smith! Are these the orphans sent by Darkblade?" Edward looked at Baron Smith standing beside him, and couldn't help asking!

"Yes! Your Majesty! These are all sent by your Dark Blade." Baron Smith was still so confident, "However, there are more than a thousand babies under the age of four who are taken care of by Madam Anna, the head maid. !"

  When Edward heard the news, he couldn't believe it. There were so many abandoned babies in England, which really refreshed Edward's impression of England.

   "So! The training outline I wrote, have you practiced it! Dear Lord Baron!"

   "Of course, I will do exactly as you say!" Smith said loudly, beating his chest vigorously in order to show that he had completed the task seriously.

  Edward felt pain just looking at it! Thinking about this hammer, I won't be able to stay with the bed for life!

"My lord! Tomorrow! Tomorrow, you will see the children I trained with the other guards, and they will give you a big surprise!" Baron Smith made a promise, also to show off As a result, he talked in a big way.

"Yes! My Uncle Smith! Tomorrow I will see the results of your two months. If I am satisfied, everyone in your guards will increase their salary by five floors!" Edward also made a promise. There was a sweet pie hanging in front of them, which was enough to make them cry.

   "Is this true? My lord!" Baron Smith asked in disbelief.

   "Are you doubting me? Uncle Smith!"

   "Of course not! Your Majesty!" Smith shook his head hastily, and hastily explained.

   "That's good! I look forward to a good result tomorrow!" Edward shook Baron Smith's head, and returned to his room to rest.

   Then Baron Smith told the good news to the boys in the entire bodyguard group. The boys, whose average age was only twenty years old, jumped up with joy.

  You know, since they left home and became the king's bodyguards, they no longer have the support of the family, and live on the king's salary every month.

  You must know that since Henry VIII instituted five pounds a month in 1540, prices across England have almost quadrupled, while their salaries have remained unchanged.

   What used to be able to support a family's salary is now of course easy to support a person. But for a guard with a family, the whole family is living a tight life, especially in the big city of London.

   And if it goes up five floors, then there will be a monthly salary of 7.5 pounds, which is enough for the family to live a comfortable life.

  In fact, Edward is also planning to raise the salaries of the guards, so using this excuse, let's just raise them now! It's even better!

  So the monthly salary of Edward's luminous guards is 3,750 pounds, which is an unimaginable figure for ordinary people.

   For the nobles, this is a high figure, but for Edward, whose monthly income is close to 40,000 pounds, it is drizzle!

  So, the excited guards came to the dormitory of the orphan army overnight, as if they were on hormones, and greeted them one by one to perform well tomorrow.

   Then he showed a kind smile and said that as long as people behave well, there will be great benefits. As for those who were dragging their feet, the coaches just showed a dark smile, and Jack shuddered even thinking about it.

  So, there was a scene where Jack and Allen went to the grass in a team.

   There was also a scene where Edward put an end to the urge to sleep for a while and got up early.

   Thanks: Don’t worry about two copies, Minhang Menghua, LancasterKoo, book friend 160328233758532, XG Jason, Tianwei Shendiao, Prussian nobleman, Ip001735, xinhaiyue, Legolas~Windrunner, 56-legged brother Mao, it’s really slow to update you. There are fewer and fewer collections, why is this?
