192 Life Events

The crowd returned with hundreds of pounds of goods, and Sariel seriously criticized Lawrence.

"Lawrence, didn't you think about it just now?"

Lawrence was thinking about the good thing of eating bread tomorrow, and was criticized by Saliel like this, and he didn't understand what he didn't think about at all.

"I think about it seriously, you see that we have not harvested a lot of wheat that can be used to make bread, and there are women who can work and have children."

Lawrence looked at the four women holding the wooden cart in both hands, all four of them were Southerners, healthy and able to do a lot of work.

Sariel sighed, a little hated that iron could not be made of steel.

"Lawrence, you do the math."

"A slave can plant three acres of land, harvest five baskets of wheat per acre, and do work to chop wood, collect firewood, build a house, and do many things."

"You exchanged two decks of cards for three slaves, think about it, these three slaves can harvest fifteen baskets of grain a year, they can do a lot of things, and they can continue to grow wheat next year."

"So, if you do the math, didn't you suffer a lot when you exchanged playing cards for wheat at the beginning?"

"This can obviously be exchanged for the same price, you will suffer a loss for this and that for a while."

Lawrence frowned and calculated, and quickly shook his head and said: "You are too messy, according to what you say, isn't one hen that can lay eggs equal to more than a dozen hens, so exchanging one hen that can lay eggs for three hens that have not laid eggs is a loss-making business?" ”

Sariel thought for a moment, "What hen?" I'm not talking about a hen, four slaves for three decks of cards, equal to one deck of cards is one point three three slaves, you use a deck of cards equal to one slave and nine baskets of wheat......"

Lawrence didn't want to listen to her nonsense, and Regelo and the others didn't understand Sariel's nonsense, and they didn't want to understand it.

Sariel is like the kind of person who has learned to learn in the alley, obviously it is a very simple thing, but he starts to talk nonsense about all kinds of theorem formulas, and then the more he calculates, the more confused he becomes.

Learning this kind of thing sometimes depends on talent, after all, sometimes in arithmetic and reasoning, there is only one way to the right one, and it depends on who is luckier.

Usually this kind of luck in learning is called talent.

It's like the dangerous instinct of a warrior, the feel of a marksman, which can no longer be described as luck alone.

Sariel has no talent for math, and Lawrence simply retorts, "Do you want to eat bread tomorrow, or do you want to wait until next year?" ”

"Tomorrow!" Sariel replied decisively.

Lawrence explained, "That's right, it doesn't matter what a deck of cards is, we're going to eat bread now, and we can eat bread!" ”

"I'll make you another deck of playing cards when you get home, and you and Deren will make noodles with a stone grinder, and bake bread at night!"

Salyl nodded, finally letting go of the puzzle she had been thinking about.

Delen felt that Salil had finally returned to normal, and came over and said, "Saliel has a problem with her brain, but I also feel that you are selling a bit at a loss, and fresh boar teeth are not easy to find, especially if you make them so beautifully." ”

Lawrence smiled, "It's okay, the issue of eating is the most important." ”

Seravin was also thinking about the group.

"Master, that group of people will come again, let's make more playing cards, we can get more wheat and women!"

Lawrence smiled: "It's not that easy to do, they made a lot of money by changing my dominoes this time, and the next time they come over, they will definitely exchange cheap wheat and women for dominoes." ”

"If you want to exchange your playing cards made of wood chips for their wheat, they will definitely not come again, these people have come here for half a month, not for the wooden cards they can make themselves."

Seravin was silent, they lumberyard workers would kill time by playing cards in their spare time, each with a deck of cards in their hands.

Seeing Lawrence exchange playing cards for food and women with outsiders, Salavin and the others also thought that outsiders were stupid and naΓ―ve, and would exchange baskets of wheat and beautiful women for the wood chips in their hands.

Lawrence quickly took everyone back, and Salavin and the others continued to work in the lumberyard, and peace quickly returned to the manor.

The four new women were arranged to sit here for a day in a wooden hut where they usually bask in the sun, according to the old rules, to observe the situation and figure out what everyone else was doing.

Most of the men could not approach the hut casually, and the main people who passed through it were maids and working nuns and peasant women, who had long been accustomed to this kind of thing, and did not look at the four new women, and seemed very indifferent.

Lawrence sat on the side and chopped wood with a small axe to make playing cards for the evening.

Sophia and Saliel learn to make bread in the house, and Delenn builds a bath with Kehalan in the back of the house.

Bull quickly walked over to Lawrence and sat down to help him make wood chips.

"Master, are these four women pregnant?"

Lawrence looked at the four women, who were sleeping in the shadows of the wooden shed, or looking around.

Lawrence asked directly at the four people, "Are you four pregnant?" Let's be honest. ”

The four women quickly shook their heads.

"No, we're all very healthy, we're not losing teeth, we're not pregnant," one said. ”

Lawrence said, "Well, you can just sit here, and if you or pee, just tell the maid in white, and they will take you there." ”

"Someone will bring you food when you eat, and tomorrow you will be given a house and a job to live in, so stay here today and don't talk to anyone else."

All four women looked at Lawrence, the new owner was much better than expected.

Bull ignored the four slaves and continued with Lawrence, "Sariel is not pregnant yet, master, do you want to try another woman?" ”

Lawrence's working hands froze.

"Someone else?"

Bull proposed: "This kind of thing is very important, generally men with women, women with men, are almost pregnant at this time, but you and Sariel have slept together for so long, and they haven't ...... yet."

Lawrence said: "I'm not in a hurry about this, take your time, now that Sariel and I are still young, especially there are still many things going on here in the manor." ”

Bull thought for a moment and asked, "I know Sophia is still young, have you done it with Deren and Kehalan?" ”

Lawrence explained: "Delenn has a very Wakyri personality, and if you want to get on her, you have to hit her first, you know, her fists are too powerful. ”

"As for Keharan...... It's pretty much the same. ”

Lawrence didn't know how to explain the matter of Kehalan, and didn't say he didn't want to, but he didn't show it either.

Bull said, "I asked the people of Durella, they can have more than ten children with a man and a woman on their side, Lawrence, you are a noble lord, and you should have many children. ”

"There are so many women and only a few men here now, Lawrence, if you want to ......"

Bull leaned close to Lawrence and whispered, "If you want to confirm if it's your problem, I can help you try it on me, don't worry, I won't tell anyone else." ”

Lawrence's ears were a little itchy, but he said gratefully: "Bull, you are a good woman, but you can rest assured about the child's affairs, I am sure that there is no problem." ”

Seeing Lawrence say this, Bull said, "Well, come to me when you need it." ”

Bull soon went on to do something else, and Lawrence went into the house with the half-finished pieces of wood.

When the witches had returned to the house in the evening, Lawrence told him about Bull.

When Keharan heard this, he said seriously: "This is a problem, we are all wizards, and each witch can only have one heir, but male wizards can have multiple descendants. ”

Sariel didn't understand, "Why can a male witch have many children, but only one witch?" ”

Kharan explained, "Because to conceive a witch and wizard who has inherited a mystery, it takes a lot of energy from the body to give to the child. ”

"But male witches are different, the child who inherits life from the mother and is born absorbs the life of the mother, and many mortals will die in childbirth because of the birth of such offspring, and only witches can generally withstand this test."

Lawrence: "In other words, if I have a child with an ordinary woman, there is a great chance that the pregnant woman and the child will die of dystocia?" ”

Keharan nodded, "That's right, and it's going to make strange dead things easily." ”

Lawrence was silent for a moment.

What does it have to do with me? I'm a human, not a wizard!

"You can play as you please, and if we can give birth to healthy children, even if we are half-blooded wizards, it will be a good thing for us," Keharan said. ”

Lawrence nodded, "yes, I see. ”

"We witches and ordinary people cannot have children, and only wizards and men with great physique can conceive life in us," said Keharan. ”

Lawrence was startled, and his face turned pale with fright.

I'm going to cut off my children and grandchildren?

Can't you?

Lawrence looked nervously at Khallan, "There is no way for ordinary people to get a witch pregnant?" Must be Berserkers and Wizards? So what's going on with Sophia's father? ”

Sophia explained: "My father was a knight, I don't remember very well, but he should be strong. ”

Keharan is a pure-blood wizard, Delen's father is a warrior of the tribe, Sariel's father is a fierce man like Andrew, and Sophia's father is also a powerful knight.

I......

"I don't think I'm a wizard." Lawrence looked at everyone decisively and sincerely, "I'm an ordinary person, how can I have a child with a witch now?" ”

Keharan smiled: "Don't worry, your talent is to hide the power of a wizard, but the power of a wizard does not come from brute force and sorcery, but from the soul, no matter how fragile you are, your seed has infinite possibilities!" ”

"I'm really an ordinary person!" Lawrence said anxiously: "I won't control the crows at all, and I won't ...... Nothing else. ”

Lawrence didn't even think that he knew anything else, it seemed that he didn't have anything to do with wizards except for crows, right?

Wisdom...... That's true!

Delenn scoffed, "I see, you just want to go and sleep with those women first." ”

Sariel showed a look of sudden realization, and said very understandingly: "Lawrence, you can go if you want, I know you have always been such a man." ”

Lawrence was helplessly silent, only to realize how considerate Saliel was.

In fact, Sariel did not stand in the way of this kind of thing at all, and once took the initiative to ask him if he would go to the town, or go to the Claudian tribe to relax.

After all, Andrew has a lot of needs in this kind of thing, don't look at him usually quite serious, in fact, with the Clauda, and the Bumians......

Lawrence suddenly thought of a very big thing!

"Keharan, after an ordinary person has a child with a witch, can he still have a child with another woman?"

"I can't." Keharan said with great certainty: "Except for the male witch who can have children with multiple women and witches, even powerful knights and berserkers cannot have children again after having children with witches, and there will be no more offspring." ”

The four women looked at Lawrence's panicked expression, and soon they all looked at Lawrence with solemn faces.

"Lawrence, you...... You're not a wizard? ”

Lawrence gritted his teeth and affirmed, "Yes, I'm not!" ”

"Ga~" The crow crawled in through the window, and today he saw that the wheat was drying here, so he came over and took two bites, and by the way saw if there was anything else to eat.

Lawrence looked at the hapless crow and didn't bother to pay attention to it.

Delenn said with a solemn face: "You try to let this crow come." ”

Lawrence sighed and shouted at the crow, "Come here." ”

The crow quickly spread its wings, flew over obediently, and landed on Lawrence's shoulder.

Sophia said to Saril and Keharan, "Whether the master is a wizard or not, he is my master!" Didn't we say that we would all be here with our master? ”

She looked left and right, hoping that the two sisters would not care so much about the wizard's affairs.

Sophia doesn't have the ability to be a wizard and doesn't value it.

Sariel nodded, "Sophia is right, when I was with Lawrence, I thought he was a very weak person, and he would be killed without my protection, so I had to be by his side to protect him." ”

Lawrence was amused and moved, it turned out that this is how Saliel saw herself.

Seems like that's how it was seen in the first place?

Lawrence suddenly looked back and realized that nothing seemed to have changed, and so had Sariel.

Keharan spread his hands outstretched, "Me too, whether he's a wizard or not, I'm surrendering anyway." ”

Lawrence gave Kehalan a grateful look, and Kehalan smiled charmingly, as if he wanted to eat him.

Now only Delenn came to follow Lawrence because of the wizarding business.

Sophia, Sariel, and Kehalan all accepted Lawrence as an ordinary person first, and then Lawrence as a wizard, and now they naturally accept Lawrence after discovering that Lawrence is actually still an ordinary person.

Delen clasped his hands in front of him and said indifferently: "It has nothing to do with me, anyway, even if he is a wizard, if he wants to win against me, he will win against me." ”

Delenn was angry at this deception, but instead of leaving, he chose to stay angry.

Lawrence relaxed a lot and grabbed the crow and put it on the table, "Let's go out and play." ”

The crow quickly flew away.

The four women and girls suddenly looked at Lawrence in confusion.

Lawrence quickly explained: "You catch it and let it go, and it will run away!" It's a law, not witchcraft! ”

Keharan looked at Lawrence with a puzzled expression, "Then how did you call the chickens last time?" ”

"Get used to it! It's a habit! I shout the same thing every time I feed the chickens, what do you shout ......"

Delenn said, "If we shout, those chickens will come too?" ”

"Not necessarily......" Lawrence explained anxiously, "The voice is different, I shouted from childhood to adulthood!" ”

Saliel looked at Khallan, "Is there any way to tell if Lawrence is a wizard?" ”

The experienced Khallan replied, "The wizard will attract the witch to the witch and will let the witch find the witch." ”

"One, two, three, four." Sophia, the little girl, nodded her fingers and counted the four witches at the table.

Sariel frowned, as if caught in a math puzzle, and glanced at Lawrence in confusion.

"But Lawrence says he's not a wizard himself."

Keharan pondered for a few seconds, and quickly hesitated, "Will it be ...... He even lied to himself? ”

All kinds of evidence show that Lawrence is a wizard, and only Lawrence himself claims that he is not a wizard.

Put it outside, no one will believe it.

"Time will explain everything." Lawrence stood up and looked out the window with a solemn face, "You don't have to care if I'm a wizard or not, because it doesn't affect me to be better than you!" ”

If it is useless to explain, then it is not explained!

Lawrence gained confidence from Sophia and the words, trust me!

Delenn snorted, "You're better than me? ”

Lawrence turned around and said solemnly to Delenn, "Pay attention to your attitude, I am the master of this place, the prophet of this place!" ”

"From scratch to now, it's not relying on me, it's relying on whom?"

Delenn turned his head to look away, but honestly acknowledged Lawrence's words.

"That's right." Keharan thought about two different outcomes, "Whether it's a wizard or not, it doesn't matter to me or Delen, but it does to Saril and Sophia. ”

Lawrence said directly: "I will shoulder my responsibility, first leave my own descendants, and then accompany you with my own life!" ”

Both Sariel and Sophia nodded, this was indeed the best solution.

Sophia had long planned to follow Lawrence for the rest of her life, and Sariel also planned to live alone for the rest of her life before she met Lawrence, and whether or not children would not have much impact on the two.

"I don't have a problem." Sariel was finally able to say what was in her heart at this time, "I'm actually afraid of having a child, if my child is an ordinary person, then according to the rules of witches, I have to kill him and have another one, until a gifted child is finally born." ”

"I think it's better not to give birth if that's the case."

Sariel thinks it's good now, and she doesn't have to worry about that kind of terrible thing anymore.

Deren stood up, "Train with me tomorrow and I'll train you to be a formidable berserker!" ”

Before Lawrence could speak, Sariel, who was sitting there, shook her head, "It won't work, Delenn, Lawrence is lazy, timid, and afraid of pain, and has no potential to become a berserker at all." ”

"Who said that?" Lawrence looked at Sariel unconvinced, and then at Delen, "We'll start tomorrow!" I have never given up on the idea of conquering Deren and crushing Delenn under me! ”

Delenn smiled approvingly, "It's like a man." ”

Sophia and Sariel are not optimistic, and they are both aware of the gap between Lawrence and Delen.
