Chapter 134: Finding the Door
The early morning sun shone through the window, and Carl opened his eyes and stretched, he hadn't slept so soundly for a long time. There was a shouting in his ears, and Carl got up from his bed.
When I opened the door, there was a crowd of people under the steps, all of them were coolie workers, carrying sacks, pushing wheeled carts, sweating profusely, not knowing what was in the bag.
Lei Tianlei sat leisurely on the bench to supervise the work, holding the yellow flower candy in his hand, and threw one into his mouth from time to time. As soon as he saw Carl coming out of the house, he hurriedly ran over: "I got up so early, didn't I make any noise to you?"
As soon as Carl saw Lei Tianlei, he hurriedly made a knightly etiquette and bowed, which is a habit he has developed over the years of treating people and things: "Thank you for taking it in last night!"
Lei Tianlei: "I told them to be lighter just now! I hope it didn't make you noisy." ”
Carl didn't expect Lei Tianlei to be so hospitable: "No, no, before going to bed last night, a maid came to my room and put a pot of flowers on the table, the flowers are purple leaves, pink stamens, extremely fragrant, refreshing, I don't know what kind of precious flowers?"
Lei Tianlei couldn't help but smile after listening to what Carl said: "That flower is not a precious word, just an ordinary flower and plant, called rosemary, which is everywhere in our city." ”
Carl: "I see. ”
Lei Tianlei: "What's the matter?"
Carl hurriedly waved his hand: "I slept well last night, I was wondering if it was the effect of the flower." ”
Lei Tianlei realized that Carl inquired about this flower because he slept too well last night: "I'm still worried that it smoked you, that rosemary has the effect of calming the nerves and helping you sleep, and the locals will put a pot when they sleep." In this way, I will ask the maid to bring you a few sachets, which are also made of rosemary, which is easy to carry around, and can be put next to the pillow when I sleep at night, and the effect is also very good. ”
Karl performed another knightly salute: "Thank you very much." ”
Lei Tianlei was a little excited, he was too late to be happy, the purpose of taking Carl to the mansion was to ask for a trick and a half, and it would be natural for him to open his mouth when the time came: "Okay, then it's decided!"
Carl: "Okay, by the way, what are you moving to?"
The men at the foot of the stairs were all local residents, the Asimetroths, who, in addition to their fat and bloated statures, were tall and very robust, and were also known as fully evolved orcs.
Lei Tianlei: "Grain, it's all grain, it's transported to Mokaben City." ”
After living in Mokabon City for many years, Carl always thought that the food was sent by the lord of Tuna City, so he asked curiously: "Isn't all this food in charge of the city lord of Tuna City?"
Lei Tianlei shook his head: "Of course not, the old man of the city lord has never taken care of this matter, and the food in Mokaben City is all given by our family for free." ”
Karl: "This is the first time I've heard of it, and I originally thought that the supplies sent by the city were arranged by the city lord." ”
Lei Tianlei: "No, we sent it, it's been almost 30 years, my father used to do it himself, we didn't allow him to help, what to say is a responsibility, can't go wrong, to put it bluntly, I don't worry about us." In recent years, his old man's health was not good, and he couldn't walk that far on the mountain road, so he was taken over by a few of our brothers. Every year we buy a lot of grain from the farms and ranches under the ground, and then send it to the past. We'll do the math until winter is a month away, and we need to get there before winter!"
From what Lei Tianlei said, Carl noticed that the Lei family would spend a lot of money every year to collect grain from farms and pastures, and then send the received grain to Moka Bener City, never asking for a penny, this cost alone is unimaginable, thirty years is like a day, this is no longer a kind of responsibility that Lord Lei said, in other words, the Lei family has fed Moka Bener City for thirty years, and can't help but be in awe of the Lei family, without food, I don't know how many people will starve to death every year.
Carl bowed to Lei Tianlei again: "It turns out that you have done such a big thing." ”
Lei Tianlei touched his round head and was a little embarrassed: "Yes, yes, my father often taught us to be kind, to be good to giving, and to help people in need." The people of Moca's Ear City are all big heroes, and this contribution we have made is nothing compared to the beetle snake compared to the heavenly dragon, and the stars are more than the bright moon. ”
Carl: "I see, it's going to take a month for you to come and go!"
Lei Tianlei smiled: "You don't know, if you really didn't say anything before, it would take a month, the horse-drawn car walked on a rugged eighteen bends, while resting and walking, it would take more than ten days to go, and it would take more than 20 days to come back, now, the car was replaced by a roller car, and the original two-horse cart was now replaced by a cow to pull it was easier, so the back and forth was much faster, less than half a month, more than 20 days, you can come back." ”
Karl: "Then why is it that the time to go is shorter than the time to come back?"
Lei Tianlei: "That's right, the road we go to is mostly downwind, mostly downhill, and when we come back, we have to pull and the pomegranate trees are mostly uphill, so we have to waste double the time." ”
Karl: "And the pomegranate, the kind of tree that we eat and which grows?"
Lei Tianlei: "Yes, this pomegranate tree is a good thing, it can be made into beds, cabinets, insect repellent, fresh air, and most nobles are using this kind of wood." So every time I go, I have to bring some back and sell them. ”
Carl nodded: "I see." ”
Lei Tianlei handed the yellow candy in his hand to Carl: "Then, you will come with it too?"
Carl nodded and picked up a piece and threw it into his mouth: "It tastes good, is this sugar your specialty here?"
Lei Tianlei said while eating: "Yes, this is made of yellow flowers, called yellow flower candy, which is particularly delicious, as well as blue and white candy and jasmine candy." ”
Karl: "Are you servants going with you to Morkabener?"
Lei Tianlei nodded: "Hmm!"
Carl: "Oh, that's great, I have a friend in Moca Bun, she was very fond of candy when she was a child, and she certainly hasn't eaten this candy, and I want to ask you to do me a favor and help me bring some of this candy to her." ”
Lei Tianlei: "Okay, no problem, I don't know what your friend's name is?"
Karl: "Shenhe Ze Belbed!"
Lei Tianlei: "Isn't that the celestial princess of Mokaben City?"
Carl wondered, "Celestial princess?
Lei Tianlei: "Of course, there were heavenly people in ancient times, known as the beginning of man, and they were the rulers of the earth. When the princess came into the world, she was widely spread in the city of Tuna as the lord of heaven and man, and everyone in the city wanted to see her!"
Carl laughed: "Haha, it's the first time I've heard about this, and I remember saying that you sent it when I sent it!"
Lei Tianlei nodded: "Okay, this matter will be wrapped up in me." ”
"Yo, what are you talking about?"
Lopez walked out from behind, the iron fan on his shoulder, except for sleeping.
Carl frowned: "Hide in the back and eavesdrop!"
Lopez: "Yo, yo, you don't want to see that princess the most, why do you want to give her a gift? If it weren't for her, you wouldn't have been able to leave Moccar!"
Carl turned back into the house and slammed the door shut.
"Bang!"
Lopez muttered, "Neurotic!"
