"Today we will go to the town to find a blacksmith to make ironware, and by the way, we will go to Doug's house and let the puppies and big dogs get together to see if we can learn something."

Lawrence had already made plans for today, and when he walked outside after eating, Seravin and the others were already standing at the door waiting.

Every morning Lawrence schedules his day's work, resting early when he finishes early, usually an hour before eating.

If you can't finish it, you won't eat, and the feeling of being hungry at night is still fresh in your memory, and you can finish it early the next day.

"Salavon, you group of housekeepers, clean up the chicken coop and sheep coop."

"Reglo went back down the hill to supervise the male slaves."

"EDI, your group will do the laundry today and clean up the weeds in the vegetable patch."

Lawrence was about to go down the mountain after arranging things, when EDI asked, "Master, do you want to bring the pigs from the mountain?" ”

"I'll bring a little pig with me when I come back." Lawrence plans to raise a fat pig to extract oil in preparation for the fried chicken festival, "first raise a female, and the other two later." ”

Lawrence brought the rope again, and the six-month-old pig was not small, and it was easy to run away without a leash.

Domestic pigs are different from puppies, they will not come back if they are lost, and they are easy to adapt to life in the wild.

Sariel put the two puppies in a basket and led the two domes down the hill.

Cattle are not suitable for climbing, and the best mounts for mountains are domestics and moose, and as for the better mountain boars, the kind of wild boars suitable for mounts, are in the hands of the nobles, and few domesticated ones are sold outside.

Powerful mounts are more difficult to obtain than knight armor, and almost the entire net worth of a knight.

If it is the kind of majestic mount that is in excellent condition, the price will only be higher, and it will be worth a hundred times more than a woman.

Lawrence looked at the Dom sheep in front of him, especially focusing on the tail of Nala the Dom sheep.

"I don't know if Nala is pregnant."

Lawrence felt the need to find some veterinary knowledge.

Compared with treating people, being a veterinarian is more tiring, but it will not earn less, and at the same time, the psychological burden is not so great.

There is no need to see too complicated diseases, in addition to castration, the main thing is gastric lavage and midwifery.

I can't, but I can learn it, right?

After all, the cattle and sheep in the manor are all treasures, and they will definitely have to raise cows in the future, and it is really a waste of a good place to not raise cattle on this terrain in the mountains.

Soon Lawrence and the others returned to Andrew's house, where they examined the harvest of the five slaves and a large pile of copper ore and iron ore placed outside the shed.

The Bumishians are no longer there, and the barbarians are not a people known for their industriousness.

When Lawrence arrives in the town of Peumetheus, he finds that the situation is much more optimistic than he had imagined.

"Mr. Lawrence, he's drunk, and he probably won't wake up until night."

The blacksmith's wife explained the blacksmith's condition.

Lawrence looked at the man sleeping on the bed, and said helplessly: "Vip also drank and slept, is there a lot of wine in the town?" ”

The blacksmith's wife explained: "Last time I brought back a lot of wine from the Ugers, wine made from acorns. ”

Lawrence didn't like to drink, and he was even more helpless when he saw that the few men left in the village were still drunk all day long.

Lawrence had no choice but to tell the blacksmith's wife what had happened, and said that he would come back in two days, and that he would borrow a stove for it.

After leaving the blacksmith's house, Lawrence goes to Emma's house and explains his intentions.

Emma was making baskets with the children, and when she heard this, she said, "After Kate left, Allie went to the village of Dum, and the dogs and her children were there, but you can go to Bull, the dogs in the Bull family are the offspring of wolves." ”

Elle is Kate's woman, and Bull is Kate's woman, and she is also a tavern girl who works in a tavern.

She sings very well, is enthusiastic, and knows many people in the village.

Lawrence goes to the tavern and finds Bull mopping the floor.

Bull sensed someone coming in, looked up and saw that it was Lawrence and smiled, "Mr. Lawrence, it's a pleasure to be here in this deserted tavern, do you want a drink?" ”

Lawrence walked over to the table and sat down, "No, I heard Emma say that your dog is the offspring of wolves?" My two dogs don't know anything and want to find a big dog to teach them. ”

Bull walked over and sat down, "I don't think this is good, dogs and dogs are difficult to get along with, you can learn from big dogs when you are young, and if you are too big, you can only look at the bloodline." ”

"That's right." Lawrence said helplessly: "I've been busy with other things, and I've forgotten about this." ”

Bull reassured: "It's all right, they can learn to watch the house and catch rabbits on their own, as long as they see strangers barking and driving away foxes and mice." ”

Lawrence was curious: "How do you get a wolfdog?" How did the offspring of that wolf in your house do it? ”

Bull quickly said: "This is not a good thing, the wolf has too much blood, so he is disobedient and eats too much, and I sometimes go home and see it and am afraid, and I dare not let the child near it." ”

Lawrence found that it also made sense, if you really engage in a wolf, it will be troublesome to domesticate.

Don't let the offspring of domesticated hounds go, what kind of wolf do you want......

"That's right." Lawrence thanked, "Very good, I see. ”

Bull saw that Lawrence cared about the dog, and introduced: "If Mr. Lawrence you want a good dog, you can actually exchange it with the snow cave man, who is very willing to exchange the extra puppies for wine and vegetables." ”

"Okay, I remember." Lawrence remembers that several of Doug's dogs were bought from the Cave Man.

Doug does have strong dog training skills, but because of time, he can't cultivate a better bloodline dog, and he has always obtained stable puppies from the snow cave people.

Bull quickly said in embarrassment: "Mr. Lawrence, I want to ask you to help me with something, if it doesn't work, forget it, I am not qualified to ask you for help." ”

Lawrence smiled, "You say, I want to know what it is first." ”

Bull nodded and said embarrassedly, "I am pregnant, and the father of the child is not a Bumishian. ”

"Whose is that?" Lawrence thought for a moment, "The Vakiri? ”

The Ug had only recently been wiped out, and the Churs and Durms were slaves, most likely the Vakiri, and the town was now under the rule of the baron.

The last time the baron came, maybe Bull would have entertained them.

This is not a shame, for the sparsely populated Bhumishu, the town needs foreign blood, and the seeds of the Vakiri are better in everyone's eyes.

Bull was embarrassed and said, "It's a slave, I want to ask you to see him, he always wants to see you again." ”

Lawrence frowned, "Is it Taloki?"

Bull quickly denied, "No, he used to be a slave of the Durm, and then he was captured by Vip as a slave to raise pigs and fetch water for Vep. ”

Lawrence quickly remembered who it was, and that he had indeed encountered a slave who had escaped while attacking the ferrymen, and had spoken a few words.

But then I forgot about it.

"He's a slave to Vip, how do you want me to help him?"

Lawrence didn't understand how Bull could get along with the slave, but it wasn't easy to say, so there was no need to delve into it.

Bull rejoiced, "Vip would love a healthy Ug slave, and if you're willing to exchange, he's willing." ”

Lawrence said, "But I need slave mining, if you give it to Vip, can that person mine?" ”

Bull said embarrassedly: "His strength is indeed a little smaller, and he can't fight, I heard that your slaves can eat, you can ask him to help you herd sheep and pigs, and I will sometimes go up to help and do things for you." ”

Lawrence thought for a moment, then looked at the kind girl who was looking at him expectantly.

"Well, I promise you." Lawrence asked casually, "What does VIP want the Ug slaves to do?" ”

Bull replied, "Drink blood." ”

Lawrence didn't continue to ask, anyway, the Ugers are not civilized people, and they don't do much sacrificial cannibalism and the like.

It is very cost-effective to exchange a cannibal slave for a human who can negotiate normally, and he is also a friend of his own friend.

Lawrence quickly found Vip, and when he woke up, he heard Lawrence's intention, and he didn't ask Lawrence why he did it, so he happily agreed.

Lawrence brought a relatively strong Uger slave, and Vip brought a young man named Kenny.

Because it was an exchange of slaves, both parties needed to sign a new slave contract.

The ritual is simple, and it is also very much in line with the bizarre wisdom of primitive humans.

Lawrence paid for a jar of wheat and a ten-pound of bacon for Friesen's wife's whip.

Then, under the frightened eyes of the Friesen children, he slapped the little boy in the Friesen family on the ass several times, and the other party howled and cried.

The little boy who was beaten remembered the face of the man who hit him, and also remembered the approximate time when he was beaten like this, and the contract was established!

Notarized by the rest of the village, and by the memory of the important little boy, Lawrence and VIP exchanged slaves.

Freesson's wife received the child's share and took her child home satisfied.

Lawrence didn't want to hit the child, but it was to help another man get out of the bloody mouth.

The barbarians were very concerned about certain customs, and Lawrence did not want to change them casually, so he could only say sorry to the little boy who was beaten, and find an opportunity to give him a piece of bread as compensation in the future.
