Although Li Na is very dissatisfied with the Maise Empire, she still hopes that one day Li Yan can return to the imperial capital and become a big nobleman who can call the wind and rain in the imperial capital, which means that the Kalin family has really been recognized by those old nobles and is truly powerful.

Li Na didn't know, Li Yan didn't plan to go back to the imperial capital at all, let alone think about getting the recognition of any old nobles, in Li Yan's opinion, the recognition of those old nobles had nothing to do with him, they recognized that he had to live like this, they didn't recognize it, he still lived such a life, as long as he had the strength, what did it matter if they didn't recognize it.

It's no wonder that the concepts of the two are so different, Li Na has lived in the Tianyuan Continent since she was a child, here is a world where aristocrats are respected, and being able to get the recognition of those old nobles is the goal of the efforts of the emerging nobles, and getting the recognition means that they are real nobles, otherwise they will be called nouveau riche.

And the earth where Li Yan lives, there is no aristocrats at all, what if you are a nobleman, as long as I have money in my hands, I am a nobleman, as long as I have strength, you don't want to recognize me, so Li Yan doesn't care about any aristocratic recognition at all.

However, he will still study very seriously and understand the world better, as long as he can make the Karlin family develop as soon as possible, and he will have stronger strength.

After returning to the study, Li Yan was not in a hurry to read those miscellaneous notes, he looked carefully in the study, and found that there were really no enlightenment books in the study, the simplest, I am afraid it is only the basic foundation of fighting spirit and magic, Li Yan picked up those things and took a look, and found that they were all written very mysterious, if there was no one to guide him, if he just relied on reading books to learn, I was afraid that he would not be able to learn anything famous, and he drank the water of nothingness again, and he couldn't learn magic and fighting spirit, so he didn't care, After a few glances, he threw it aside.

In the end, Li Yan still focused his attention on miscellaneous notes, but when he was looking through miscellaneous books, he really found a good thing, which was a book about calligraphy.

In this book about calligraphy, the use of several pens on the desk is very auspicious, and Li Yan also understands that these pens on the desk are not so good looking, and each has its own use.

Brushes are used to write and draw, generally used by those who are particularly fond of calligraphy, and there are also magicians who use brushes when making some large magic scrolls, because the magic circle to be drawn on the scroll is relatively large.

The quill is the main pen used to make magic scrolls, because the strokes are thinner, and he can be used to make some small and medium-sized scrolls.

And the pen that is similar to the fountain pen is usually used to write and record, because the pen bag inside can store ink, can write a lot of words, very convenient, but this kind of pen can not be used to make magic scrolls, because the magic guide of metal is very poor, the general magician will not have metal things, affecting the use of magic, of course, there are some special metals, also have good magic guide, but the price of that metal is very expensive, no one will be willing to use him to make a pen.

Charcoal, on the other hand, is reserved for alchemy, and they usually use it to draw drawings or make a base for some drawings.

Only then did Li Yan understand that there were such pens on this table, but not for the sake of looking good, but for each one to have a different use.

In the miscellaneous notes, Li Yan also saw that the ordinary nobles on the mainland now use a brush when signing some particularly important characters, which is a symbol of identity.

This is a little surprise for Li Yan, Li Yan used to be on the earth, he always wanted to learn calligraphy, wanted to write calligraphy, but unfortunately, at that time he had no money, no teacher, in the end this wish can only be lost, I didn't expect that there is calligraphy in this world, it seems that his wish is expected to come true.

However, Li Yan only memorized the use of these pens now, and let him learn calligraphy now, which is obviously a bit unrealistic, and now there are too many things here in the Black Earth Wasteland, and he has time to learn calligraphy.

In the afternoon, Li Yan spent time in the study, and at about two o'clock in the afternoon, there was a sudden knock on the door, and Li Yan was stunned and said, "Who?" ”

The voice of the dog came from outside: "Young master, we have already mined several stones, please go and help transport them back." ”

Li Yan put down the book, walked to the door, opened the door and said, "Let's go." After saying that, he went out first, and the dog quickly ran to the back.

As he walked out, Li Yan said, "Are you still quarrying in that cave?" ”

Goudan nodded and said: "Yes, young master, An looked at a few caves and said that only the stones in that cave are the easiest to mine, and the stones produced in that cave are not iron ore, and they are the best for grinding and grinding, probably because there is no iron ore there, so those dwarves did not mine there." ”

Li Yan nodded and said: "You must pay attention to safety, now our Kalin family has a total of such a small number of people, we can't lose, every time we lose someone, our strength is weaker, I let you follow them, I am afraid that they will be too reckless." ”

Goudan nodded, he understood what Li Yan meant, under the encouragement of Li Yan's release of slave status, those slaves were very enthusiastic about working, but they were a little too anxious, and they should pay attention to it.

The two walked to the outer fort as they spoke, and the women were still weaving straw mats, but they didn't see Li Dou and Zhao Xuan.

Li Yan didn't care, followed the dog out of the castle, and as soon as the two walked up the mountain, Li Yan noticed that there seemed to be an extra grass shed on the top of the mountain, Li Yan pointed to the shed and said to the dog: "Is the shed on the top of the mountain the sentry I said?" ”

Goudan nodded and said, "Yes, Grandma Li Na asked us to help build a small shed, and there are two people in the shed watching there, and every two hours or so, someone will go to change the guard." ”

Li Yan nodded, Li Na really deserves to come out of the Carlin family, the Carlin family started with military merits, when Li Na was young, she also went out with the army many times, and she was naturally familiar with the matter of arranging sentry posts.

At this moment, suddenly a figure rushed from the mountain, shouting loudly while running, although Li Yan didn't hear him shouting, but his heart couldn't help sinking, he immediately turned his head to the dog and said: "Dogan, go to the cave, let all the people in it go back to the castle immediately, and then you go to Tie Dan and them, let them go back to the castle immediately, and I will go to Zhao Xuan and them." ”

After finishing speaking, he raised his leg and was about to leave, but the dog grabbed Li Yan and said: "Young master, I'll just go to find it, you go back to the castle immediately, the Karlin family can't do without you, if there is any situation, you will enter the space immediately." ”

Li Yan was stunned for a moment, and then his face sank and said: "Don't talk nonsense, I am the head of the Kalin family, at this time, how can I retreat from the battle, you go quickly." After saying that, he walked forward.

The dog ran in front of him quickly, knelt on the ground with a plop, hugged Li Yan's leg and said, "Young master, go back to the castle quickly, the Kalin family can't live without you, if we don't have you, then all of us will be finished, young master." ”

Li Yan looked at the dog's appearance, knowing that if he didn't agree, the dogan wouldn't move, he knew about the dog's stubbornness, and he still remembered the last time the two of them held a sword together and put it on their necks.

Li Yan had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay, then you go immediately, I'll go back to the castle, and let everyone go to the inner castle first." The dog replied and stood up.

At this time, the figure also ran to Li Yan, knelt down and said, "Master, there are a lot of demonic beasts and undead creatures on the other side of the mountain, and they are climbing up the mountain. ”

Li Yan immediately said, "Is there anyone else in that shed?" ”

The man immediately said, "Yes, it must still be on the mountain." Li Yan said angrily: "Idiot, why don't you come down, dog, you go to the mountain and call that guy down." The dog answered, and immediately turned and ran.

Li Yan turned his head to look at the slave kneeling on the ground and said, "What's your name?" ”

The man immediately said, "Back to the master, my name is Lin." ”

Li Yan nodded and said: "You go back to the castle now, go to Grandma Li Na, see if she is in the castle, if she is not there, you go and tell those who are weaving grass, everyone go to the inner castle, this is my order, go quickly." ”

Lin answered, jumped up and ran towards the castle, Li Yan also knew his body, he couldn't run as fast as Lin, so he asked Lin to pass the message.

Li Yan also started to run towards the castle, but his body was really not good, and he was already tired and panting after only a few steps.

When Li Yan returned to the castle, he found that the people who were weaving grass had already entered the inner fort, and when he arrived at the inner fort, Li Na was standing there, and everyone looked at Li Yan uneasily.

As soon as Li Na saw that Li Yan was back, she immediately walked to his side and said, "Young Master, what now?" ”

Li Yan took a few breaths and said, "Grandma Li Na, you immediately count the number of people and see how many people are in the courtyard now, I will go to the castle now, and when everyone returns, let them close the gate of the castle immediately." ”

Li Na hurriedly said: "Young master, you should stay here and count the number of people, and I will go to the city gate." After saying that, he walked out quickly, and there was no chance for Li Yan to oppose at all.

Li Yan looked at Li Na's back impatiently, Li Na really took care of him too much, and always put him in the safest place, but Li Yan also knew that now he had no means to protect himself, so he could only do this.

He turned his head to look at these people standing in the inner fort, and now standing here, except for Lin, all of them are women, there are more than thirty of them, Li Yan immediately said: "Everyone line up and stand up." ”

As soon as they heard Li Yan say this, these slaves immediately stood in line, and the speed was greatly beyond Li Yan's expectations.
