72. date palm tree

that night after making Mr. Senopati feel calm with the actions of his sons and daughters. Mr. Senopati finally handed over the slave business to his children, Honestly, Lord Senopati really did not want this to happen.

***

now the day was beginning to light.the slaves who had been bought were re-ordered by the 13 brothers. Gayatri gives instructions to line up according to their age.

all according to him, each of them marched according to what Gayatri ordered.without the faces of the slaves bowed very, very uninspired.

"for the elderly.I release you from this bondage.In accordance with the consent of my father and brothers, we will place you around our abode. you will be farming to keep your life together. Rest assured we will help." said Gayatri with gentleness and a smile to the old man.

hearing the revelation that they had been released made their smiles appear, but they promised in their hearts that even if they had been freed in bondage, they would still offer their strength to help the family.

"thank you, miss...!!" speak them simultaneously. Gayatri smiled, nothing. When she saw the smiles printed on their faces give a special impression in Gayatri's heart. Gayatri immediately turned her gaze back to the elderly or middle-aged people.

"for the middle-aged, if you want to also live like the first parent, then that is your choice. But we also need people to work to help in our field. Who is willing to please volunteered." said Gayatri without any tones of coercion in it. It turns out that half of the middle-aged lungs volunteered to help at the residence or the white tiger. the other half chose to stay in place.

"and for children and adolescents, you will be trained immediately to take good care of yourself.We do not ask for you to be students of this school, But we will also choose some people to be part of us, or to be soldiers or bodyguards for us. And if anyone is willing, please file."it turned out that almost everyone volunteered to be a team of Gayatri and her siblings, while the others, choosing to become students. So are the extensive children aged 8 to 14. while under 8 years are freed to choose their lives.of course there they have a family.

after the election and separation. Gayatri and her 12 brothers began to organize them all. Parents were given shelter for them to farm, some chose to be servants in their residence, and also some of the disciples who had been raised by Lord Senopati, as well as the teams who joined Gayatri and his 12 brothers.

six months have passed after the purchase of slaves on the black market.The lives of the slaves bought by Gayatri and her four brothers are now better. even some who have become residents there, life is very good. moreover the land around the valley is very fertile. The same goes for the students and the team that Gayatri trained.

during these 6 months, Gayatri trained her team with military-style exercises like she had done to her other brothers.of course what Gayatri did was never protested by them all. they are very close and warm like a family. Gayatri and her family really do impose them like family on them. But still, the Gayatri members remain aware of their limits.

like today. Gayatri was walking around in this valley village.there are various kinds of plants.

and some residents who are harvesting, there are also those who clean the grass and weeds, and there are also those who replant. in Gayatri eyes this scene is very soothing to the eye. this was Gayatri's dream when she was in the modern world.

"huh..!!! the air is really cool and very pleasant" said Gayatri. some residents who saw the arrival of Gayatri there.they welcomed and greeted him kindly.

"welcome miss.. does the lady need anything..??" asked a middle-aged man to her. Gayatri smiled kindly at the middle-aged man.

"of course, miss. there is no problem." said the middle-aged man who accompanied Gayatri around in the garden of the residents.they planted a variety of plants, too, starting from vegetables, sweet potatoes and fruits.

while they were walking down the plant, suddenly Gayatri's eyes caught a plant that he thought was very difficult to grow in this tropical climate. Gayatri was very surprised to see the fruit.

there, he also saw a longan tree that had borne fruit and was ready for harvest.

"sir..!! who's that plant got..??" ask Gayatri to the middle-aged man.let's call his name Pak tilam. Pak tilam Directly set his gaze there. and immediately saw and responded to Gayatri's question.

"oh.. I don't know miss. but, for those who have, I know his people miss. he was a wandering young man. when he arrived here, he was a young man, he was interested and finally asked permission to settle.I also immediately took him to meet with Mr. Senopati." said mr. tilam. Gayatri nodded her head in understanding.

"miss wants to meet him..??" ask mr. tilam again. Gayatri immediately nodded. After that, Pak tilam Directly led Gayatri to meet with the young man.

"excuse me young man.." said Mr. tilam. turns out the owner is cleaning his garden and make a ditch or waterway.

the young man who was called immediately stopped his activities and looked towards Gayatri and Pak tilam.

"eh. mr. tilam.. what's the matter sir.." said the young man. Pak tilam smiled kindly. he was very happy to see this young man.he was kind and respectful to people older than him.

"sorry to bother you young man. I just want to accompany Miss Gayatri to go around. coincidentally, he wants to look around your garden. if the young do not mind.." said mr. tilam. hearing Mr. Tilam's words, the young man smiled at Gayatri. Gayatri who accidentally saw the young man's smile was immediately fascinated.I don't know, this is the first experience Gayatri felt fascinated to see a man's smile.

(He was very handsome.) Inner Gayatri involuntarily.but suddenly Gayatri shook her head slowly.

(hadeh what I think...!!) gayatri in the Heart.

"of course it may be Mr. tilam." said the young man. his gaze continued to lead to Gayatri.

(this girl is very unique, I think she is the daughter of the owner of this village.but why does she not feel disgusted to be in the middle of mud and land like this. usually children of distinguished people will feel disgusted if they have mingled with the land or things related to it.) the inner youth.

after Gayatri and Pak tilam asked permission to the owner of the garden. Gayatri walked up to 5 stalks of date palms that are very fruitful is certainly ready for harvest. Gayatri observes the date palm tree to convince herself that it is a date.Gayatri immediately looks at the owner.

"sorry sir, is this date tree you yourself planted..??" gayatri asked the young man, and the young man was astonished when Gayatri mentioned the name of the tree.The reason is, this date palm tree was found growing just like that in the field he was working on, But because of his own interest for the young man, he finally decided to take care of the tree.
