Pioneering-Lord-People, these concepts are themselves connected, without the people can not be developed, and the development is also to increase the living space of the people.

And the one who can lead all this is the lord.

Xia Duo still agrees with this, this is a basic social contract, and there are similar words in his hometown, such as being an official and not making decisions for the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes.

There is certainly a difference between a lord and an ordinary official, and to be realistic, the power of a lord does not come entirely from the support of his subjects, but from himself.

Even the source of everything may be because he is strong.

But "strong" is not necessarily a reason for asylum, nor is it necessarily a reason to be kind after asylum.

In other words, not everyone has the consciousness that "the greater the power, the greater the responsibility", perhaps "the greater the power, the more freedom" is the idea of more people.

Even Xia Duo often felt constrained by his lack of ability, and he never wanted to gain more freedom by pursuing stronger abilities.

But unlike many color-resistant mages, Xia Duo also has a sense of responsibility, perhaps from the old proverb in his hometown, "If you reach the world, you will help the world".

Or perhaps it stems from the recognition that "with great responsibility comes great power".

This time, Archmage Gretta's clear statement made Xia Duo feel a little more good for the princess.

In this magical world where individual strength is very prominent, spellcasters, especially powerful spellcasters, are almost impossible for ordinary people to resist.

Whether the superior is good or bad, they can only bear it silently.

In such a situation, Princess Xia still follows the ancient and simple pioneering tradition, which is undoubtedly worthy of respect.

In particular, Xia Duo has a similar philosophy, which can almost be called a "comrade"!

……

On the issue of how to treat the people, Greta didn't talk too deeply, and Xia Duo didn't want to say too much in front of the other envoys, so the mage was still more subtle.

After drinking the tea, Greta offered to leave, but Shado and Nia did not stay, and Nessel did not like this, but it was still to be sent.

The delivery was delivered to the outside of the teleportation room, and Greta first sent the council emissaries who had come with her to Conch City to inspect other frontiers on the Conch Plains, southeast of Conch City.

And she herself reactivated the teleportation circle a little later, and returned to Severn, it seems that she really came alone to understand the Great Xia Territory!

……

Leaving from the teleportation room, Nia suddenly grabbed Xia Duo, lowered her head like a gnat and whispered, "The council inspection is over, don't go back to the territory recently, stay in the Tower of Time!" ”

Although the voice was soft, it was very clear in Chador's ears, and it was rare for Nia to show such a weak side, and he remembered that the last time the two of them had sent Lord Epps into the stasis together.

This made Xia Duo feel pity for a moment, during the time he came back from the Green Field, he only lived in the Tower of Time for two days, and he still lived in the previous room, even if there was a spell connection from time to time, it was indeed a snub to the other party.

So, he took Nia's hand, gently pulled Nya into his arms, leaned into her ear and whispered, "Don't worry, I'm always by your side!" ”

……

Although the private relationship of children is not the whole of life, it is also a very important part.

Xia Duo is naturally no exception, and there are always some feelings of family and country.

However, the family is reflected in many aspects, not limited to Twilight's stay, and after comforting Nice, Shado leaves the Tower of Time again.

Of course, he didn't return to the territory to live for a long time this time, but just returned to the territory to get some wood, and the problem of the lack of paper in the Tower of Time has become more and more serious.

Unless you take the teleportation circle to Severton or other commercially developed territories to buy it now, you will soon face a paper panic.

And now in Xia Duo's territory, there are not many other things, but there is a lot of wood, and only a few are used for cooking, heating, making wooden houses, or burning the ground.

There are still a lot of logs piled up there, and I don't know what to do with them, let alone the more expansive green pearl forests beyond the frontier lands, and even the eastern forests.

How to deal with these pieces of wood has always been a headache for Xia Duo, which is not an exaggeration.

Just making furniture, making wooden houses, or whatever, it is difficult to have any sales volume if it meets the needs of the territory, after all, the amount of wood is not a problem for the Great Xia Collar family.

Unless it's a color-resistant core area, you can cut as much wood as you want, provided you don't get troubled by the elves, of course.

Even in the core area, there are closer territories that provide large logs, and as for daily firewood, there are large patches of fast-growing thorns almost everywhere as a source of firewood for ordinary people.

Unless the wood products are made by elves, it is difficult to sell them across long distances, and the shipping cost alone is very troublesome, so it is better to burn them on the spot!

But for Xia Duo, who has mastered the art of papermaking, incineration is undoubtedly a waste.

It's just that in the past, he didn't make up his mind to make paper, so the wood in the territory became more and more piled up, and even affected the development of the territory to a certain extent!

This must be solved as soon as possible, and for now, there is only one solution, papermaking.

……

Not long ago, Cecily told Chardo that the Tower of Time was short of paper, and he had made up his mind to make paper, but he had been staying in the territory lately and ignored it for the time being.

Now that Nia has asked him to return to the Tower of Time, Shado immediately puts papermaking on the agenda.

After returning from the territory, Xia Duo brought back about 1,000 cubic meters of logs, that is, filling the entire carry-on space.

Of course, it was impossible for Xia Duo to turn all these logs into paper by himself, and it would be a waste for him to do this as an arcanist.

So, he called Cecily, along with a few low-level mages from the Magic Mechanics Department, to a pre-transformed workshop.

"Cecily, Garnal, I'm going to show you an important technique next, don't spread it around!"

In fact, the biography is nothing, but it is more troublesome, so it is better to keep it secret before the appearance of a large number of wood pulp paper!

In fact, for the most astute spellcaster, it is possible to know its origins and even the manufacturing process through the paper.

This was already realized when Xia Duo decided to come up with papermaking skills.

"Look!"

Xia Duo first took out a piece of the tree trunk that had not completely dried and threw it into the important reaction pool in the workshop, and then randomly cast a bloodline spell to summon a stream of water to fill the reaction pool.

After that, he cast a series of spells from the papermaking series he brought back, and while casting spells, he also introduced:

"If you look closely, the first step in making paper is to turn the finished wood into wood pulp!"
