Lawrence returns to the tavern with Kenny.

"Take off the rope yourself, I took you as a slave because of Bull's request, and I will work hard in the future."

Kenny looked to be in his twenties, a little older than Boole, and he had a down-and-out air on his body.

Lawrence sat in a chair in the tavern, Sarile and Sophia sat near another empty table, Kenny stood in front of Lawrence, and Bull served ale and pork bacon to several people.

Unlike home-made bacon, Doug's bacon here is tastier.

Although the method is very simple, it is to cut the smoked back muscle into slices, but it is like cooking, and you can taste it whether it is delicious or not.

Kenny looked at the young man in front of him who was enjoying the food, and said honestly:

"Mr. Lawrence, I want to be free from you."

Lawrence looked surprised, but still calmly broke the bread and sandwiched bacon, kale leaves, and berries in the bread.

I took a light bite and the salty bacon and vegetable bread were mixed together.

It would be better if there was cream.

After taking a slow bite, Lawrence said softly, "Work for me for five years, and I'll give you freedom." ”

Kenny said anxiously, "I'm afraid I won't be able to wait that long." ”

"Then there's no way." Lawrence continued to eat, and took the time to say, "Unfortunately, it is not easy for you to understand that you came to me from Vip. ”

Kenny grimaced, "Allow me to introduce myself." ”

"Yes." Lawrence looked at Kenny, who was clearly different from the Baumitheon.

Kenny said, "I'm Kenny from Durella West, a missionary from the Church of Dawnlight. ”

Lawrence looked puzzled, "What is Durella?" ”

"It's one of the countries of the West." Kenny puffed out his chest and said, "There are 300,000 people there, and there are many more powerful nations near Dulary. ”

Lawrence asked directly, "How far is it from here?" ”

"It took 19 days from the time I set off to the time I got off the boat and stood by the sea," Kenny said. ”

Lawrence asked, "Is this where the Bomitheans went?" ”

Kenny: "I'm not sure there's more to Durella than just on the western coast. ”

Lawrence cares a lot about Kenny's identity.

"You're a missionary for the Church of Dawn?"

Kenny stood up proudly and said to Lawrence, "Yes, I have come to spread the greatness of God in this land of ignorance. ”

Lawrence said, "I also respect God, since you are spreading the power of God, why were you caught by the Durm?" Has your God not given you strength? ”

Kenny bowed his head and explained, "I'm not a knight or a priest, what I'm going to do as a missionary is to make more people understand the greatness of God, not use violence. ”

"But I think the people here are the ones who eat violence." Lawrence pondered, "What spells do your priests know?" Are there any particularly powerful magical powers? ”

Kenny argued, "From what I've observed, the people here need faith, even if they don't use violence, to be able to influence some of the people here, and to make the people of this land sing the hymns of the Lord of the Dawn through generations." ”

Lawrence was a little annoyed, "I ask you, do you have magical powers in your church!" Answer me this question!! ”

Kenny could only relent, under Lawrence's glare, and said, "Yes, the bishops of our region can use the magic of calling for fire, and although the warriors of the Kingdom of Loven are brave, they will understand what order is when they meet the Templars of our Church of Dawn Light." ”

Lawrence nodded, "Well, I'm actually not averse to churches or anything like that, but in exchange for you, I paid the price of a slave, and I can't just let you go." ”

After realizing that the Church of Dawn Light did indeed have mysterious powers, Lawrence spoke a lot.

At first, he was very talkative, and it was already a very benevolent act to be able to promise to let this person go.

Kenny said, "Yes, I don't think you're doing anything wrong, and I can pay an equal amount in order to be able to shorten my slave time." ”

Lawrence was very interested and said, "What can you give me?" ”

Kenny explains, "Church brothers and sisters in all regions are willing to make friendly deals, and we provide bread, wine, and resting places for missionaries on the go. ”

"We also trade with merchants to provide protection for travelers."

"In order for more people to understand the greatness of God and join our church, we will also spread knowledge."

"Mr. Lawrence, you were one of the first people in the area to speak to me on an equal footing, and you also took an interest in our church and offered a friendly act of relief."

"I think you have what it takes to share our knowledge, and now you can choose one of the three I know, and I'll help you master that knowledge in three months."

Sariel came interested, "What knowledge?" Lawrence is literate! I'm literate, too! ”

Kenny explains, "The first is the technique of making delicious bread, and we missionaries have visited churches around the world and tasted the unique bread of many regions, and I can only tell you how to make durella cream bread. ”

Saliel was curious, "What is cream?" ”

Lawrence knew that cream was said to have been invented BC when he was on Earth, so it must have been foreign.

The cattle in the north are all beef cattle or farming cattle, and there are no dairy cows and no cream.

There is a lot of goat milk, but most people don't point out the corresponding technology.

"It's a necessity to go with bread and make it taste better," Kenny says. ”

Lawrence said directly: "You go on, Sariel, don't ask first, let him finish." ”

Sariel is curious about the rest of Kenny's skills, and what brioche tastes like.

Kenny continued, "The second type, barley wine, will definitely taste better than the wine you have now!" ”

Lawrence quietly took a sip of ale, the church staff were the first workers of this era, and they naturally had time to do other side hustles without heavy work.

Brewing beer and baking bread are all decent jobs in this era.

Moreover, churches are generally not poor, have their own sources of income, and naturally have mastered some profit-making techniques, and do not rely entirely on alms from believers.

Many churches and chambers of commerce have dealings, but judging from the missionaries in front of them who are willing to come to the barbarian kingdom to preach, there are also many people who want to do something.

The church needs a lot of intellectuals to help preach, and it doesn't have such a monopoly on knowledge.

It's just that most people don't have the idea of studying, and many people are running around for three meals a day, and they have long missed the best time to study.

Seeing that Lawrence didn't care, Kenny continued, "Third, I can keep your bees and get beeswax to make candles. ”

"Mr. Lawrence, what kind of technology would you like to get?"

Kenny looks at Lawrence, waiting for his choice.

Lawrence quickly clenched his fists and said, "I want it all." ”

Kenny quickly shook his head, "No, you can only get one. ”

Lawrence said directly: "You are now my slave. ”

Kenny didn't give an inch, "My soul belongs to God!" You can kill me, but don't try to get a second knowledge from me! This is God's test for you, and it's for me! ”

Lawrence looked at the man carefully, and he looked like he would rather die than give in at this time, obviously afraid of death.

You can scare him into trying, but it doesn't feel like there's any need.

It's enough to catch another missionary in the future, and there's no rush anyway.

"I'll choose the third one, you help me raise bees, and after the honey and beeswax are produced, I'll let you go."

Kenny smiled and bowed, "You will be overjoyed with your choice for today, in my country, it is a luxury item loved by both the nobility and the church, and you can sell it at any chamber of commerce and church." ”

"If the mountain is suitable for beekeeping, there will be merchants who come here in the future to buy beeswax, which is more popular than wine, pottery, and honey."
