The days gradually increased, and there were more traces of birds and beasts in the mountains and forests.

Young Lawrence set off with a basket on his back, followed by Saryl and Sophia, dressed in thick winter coats.

The bloated and thick animal skin robes wrapped several people tightly, and the three people with limited mobility led the domme sheep that had not come out for a long time to walk on the snowy mountains.

The morning sun was dry and harsh, and Lawrence asked Salyl and Sophia to sit on a sleigh and led the two sheep down with her.

When encountering a downhill road, Lawrence uses two wooden sticks as brakes to prevent the sleigh from hitting the feet of the domes.

After three or four hours, Lawrence finally saw the house he hadn't seen for more than a month.

Sariel walked over and stood with Lawrence, the place where she had lived for many years still looked the same place, but it gave Sariel a different feeling.

It's home, it's not home.

"The snow is starting to melt under the mountain, let's go to town today and eat something delicious!"

Sariel regained her vitality and was still a lively girl of fifteen or sixteen years old at heart.

Lawrence also wanted to eat something other than meat, preferably potatoes and turnips.

Because most likely potatoes and turnips, there are no cabbages or tomatoes, but as a substitute are all kinds of small berries that can only be found in spring and summer.

"I want to eat something delicious too, what will there be here to eat at this time?"

Lawrence led the sheep closer to the house, and the Dom sheep beside him seemed to be walking faster than usual as if they needed to be on a leash.

Lawrence soon sat down on the sleigh and let the Domme sheep lead the way.

Sariel sat next to her and said, "There are mushrooms, fish skins, shrimp, seaweed, we'll know when we go to Emma's house!" ”

Sophia, who sat with her back to Sariel, was listening with her ears pricked up, her small body curled up in the leeward, covered with a blanket made of wolf skin.

Sophia, like Saliel, has a strong interest in good food.

Lawrence soon reached the outside of the house, where there were many human footprints on the ground, and the snow on the ground was also melted and trampled on, and there was a lot of black muddy water.

"Wang!"

"Wang!"

As soon as Lawrence got closer, he saw two large dogs running out of it and galloping towards Lawrence.

Lawrence quickly stood up, stretched out his hands and grabbed the two dog's paws, and his face showed surprise at seeing his old friend.

"Tira! Tyr! ”

Lawrence looked at the two familiar sled dogs and greeted them happily.

At this time, the people in the house also came out, it was Kate and the blacksmith, and two other men from the village.

Seravon and EDI also came out of the next hut and stood aside, not daring to approach.

Lawrence looked at Kate, "Kate, why are you here?" ”

Kate said: "We came three days ago, Lawrence, Sariel, we need the ore here. ”

Sariel stood beside Lawrence without speaking, leaving the decision to Lawrence.

Lawrence didn't hesitate, "Yes, but you have to mine your own, and my share is not missing." ”

Kate looked at Lawrence, "You're going out with us?" ”

"Are all the men in the village going out?" Lawrence asked rhetorically.

Kate thought for a moment, "It's not decided yet, we're building ships and making weapons, Vip won't go, the blacksmith won't go, the rest of us all agree together, but our ship can't fit so many people." ”

Lawrence looked at the blacksmith, "Why don't you go?" ”

The blacksmith didn't want to be misunderstood, and quickly explained, "I want to go too." ”

Kate explained: "My father told him to continue making weapons, and only he could do that. ”

Lawrence quickly said, "Although I will too, I still need to take care of this side of the mountain." ”

The blacksmith's face was very unsightly, as if he had turned pale from the cold.

The rest of the people didn't realize it, standing in front of the door and chatting about homely things.

Kate said, "My father's health is already well, this time we are going out with the Vakiri, and my father wants you to stay here in the mountains." ”

"Where do you stay in the mountains? We went to the mountains a few times and couldn't find your house. ”

Lawrence remembered that neither Emma nor the two slaves had ever been to the house on the hill.

The two slaves in Friesen should have known, and Kate should have thought of this, thinking that Seravin didn't know, and the rest of the people didn't know.

Lawrence looked at the mountain in the distance, "It's a little closer to Mount Talim, and a crow has recently lived in my house, and I've been taking care of it this winter. ”

Kate looked at Lawrence with reverence, "Mr. Lawrence, I will tell my father about this, and your share of the pay will definitely not be less." ”

Lawrence smiled: "Come into the house and say, this house is Andrew's home, don't mess up here, otherwise Andrew will be angry when he comes back." ”

Kate walked in and said with a smile, "Of course not, we don't want to offend Andrew." ”

"Mr. Lawrence, I brought the dog you wanted." Kate entered the house and walked to the side and brought a basket of clothes to the dining table.

Lawrence looked over and saw two strong and energetic puppies sleeping inside, with some food scraps and wet water stains near the chubby body.

But not one, but two, one black and one white.

Sariel looked at the little white dog and said happily, "Why two?" ”

Kate said to Sariel, "I'm worried that you'll die, so I'll send one more." ”

Saliel looked at Kate angrily and complained that the man had said something unpleasant.

Lawrence smiled, "Two are just right, one is too lonely." ”

Kate was quick to say something else, like copper and iron ore.

There are not only copper ore, but also iron ore, but the iron ore deposits are deeper.

Lawrence asked, "There aren't many people in the village, how are you going to mine?" ”

Kate said proudly: "This winter, we have captured some slaves from the neighborhood, and the people who were defeated and escaped by us have also returned, and the farming affairs will be handed over to these slaves in the future, we just need to hold the axe!" ”

In the past, slaves were not captured because there was not enough food to eat, so even if someone surrendered, they would be killed, or even eaten.

Now that there was enough food to eat, and there was a lot of work in the town that needed manpower, the slaves survived.

The current town of Bhumixiu has annexed two nearby villages, and is larger than before.

Lawrence asked, "How many villages are there near us now?" ”

"There are two other nearby, both of which are small villages." Kate was quick to say something he knew well, "One is a hundred Ug people, and the other is a snow cave man of two hundred. ”

"Neither of these is our opponent, if you don't get the harvest when you come back this time, we'll go and rob them!"

Lawrence nodded, not at all surprised.

Kate smiled and said, "In the winter, we ran out of meat, so we went to the Ug people to exchange wine, and they planted a lot of wheat and potatoes there. ”

Lawrence asked, "What is the land at the foot of the mountain to plant this year?" ”

"Just plant a little, it's mainly a tax for the baron." Kate looked at Lawrence in a bad mood when she said this, "That baron doesn't know why he's still alive." ”

"But if we don't get the treasure with the Vakiri this year, if he dares to come, we'll kill him together!"

Kate exposes her murderous intentions.

Lawrence nodded, "I'll help." ”
