Chapter 32: Foggy Days

Overnight, the manor was shrouded in a white mist.

When the people of the manor opened the door, they saw a white sea of clouds.

The churning mist flowed slowly in front of the door like a river of life.

"Outside! It's all white water outside! ”

The Clauda, who had seen it for the first time, let out a panicked cry to call out to more companions with his voice.

"It's like this every year, just wait in the house, don't go out, it's not until noon."

The voice of the Bhumixiu came from the other side.

Soon more and more people opened their homes.

Emma and Bull led the men to light a fire on the estate, and the shepherdess and EDI and Mandekre's family lit a bonfire outside the lumberyard camp.

Visibility is so low in this foggy weather that even torches can't reach a distance of five meters.

Lawrence and the others quickly got up as well, and Sariel brushed her hair while looking out the window.

"It's time like this again."

Lawrence took out his calendar board to record that last year's foggy day was five days later, and this year's one came a little earlier.

After recording the date of this year's fog, Lawrence went downstairs to eat with Saliel and Sophia.

Both Kehalan and Delen were seated at the table, and Lossanda had likewise come out of the house to enjoy a hearty breakfast.

Lawrence sat down and said, "The fog will last for two or three days before it clears, so let everyone rest at home today and don't go out." ”

Emma said, "They have been informed, and the newcomers have also known about it, but it is not easy to inform them from the other side of the mountain." ”

In foggy weather, the mountain road that was originally taken casually will become extremely dangerous, and at this time, not to mention going down the mountain, even if you go out to the toilet, you have to be careful of bumping into people.

Lawrence looked at Deren and asked, "You haven't seen fog before?" ”

"Nope." Delen replied, "We don't have this fog there, it's been warm. ”

Lawrence nodded, the fog was indeed caused by the cooling weather.

"There are Pumixiu people on the mountainside and at the foot of the mountain, and the Pumixiu people are also aware of the situation here, just like eternal night, everyone can wait patiently."

Saliel said: "Now that's all there is to it, let's play cards together after eating!" Lawrence: Do you want to come along? ”

At the moment, there are enough people in the family, and there are up to four people playing cards, so there must be someone watching from the side.

Lawrence said, "You guys, I'm going to think about the water mill today, and we're going to expand it next year, and I'm going to think about how to build a house." ”

"Hmmm! Good! Saliel said happily: "Hurry up and eat, and think about it quickly after eating." ”

Although the house is now very large, Sariel is still looking forward to a bigger house.

After eating, the maids cleaned up the table and cleaned up, and the hostesses went upstairs to play cards and chat.

Lawrence went to the warehouse to build a model of a water-powered mill out of wooden blocks.

The technique of making a water-powered mill is very important, more so than the mill itself.

This technique can be replicated to build waterwheels and cranes.

There is a need for more wheels and axles, and there is a need to make more precise and stable axles.

In the future, highly repetitive tasks such as irrigation, papermaking, and processing can also use the waterwheel system.

Theory is theory, Lawrence thinks and tries related techniques repeatedly, and when he starts to do it, he feels like there are too many things to foreshadow.

Resting on a woollen carpet when a man was tired, Lawrence put aside the wheels for a moment and thought about the rest of the estate.

"Originally, I wanted to discuss going to sea with Friesen today."

"I don't know ......," Lawrence suddenly came up with a very dangerous, but very much in line with the thinking of a barbarian.

"With my current strength, can I rob Redbeard?"

Lawrence pondered the question.

"Redbeard's main masters over there are Redbeard and Andrew, and there are some other small bosses who are more powerful than Friesen."

"Andrew definitely won't fight us, after all, we're closer here."

Redbeard's words...... It felt like it would take at least five or six fierce people to deal with him. ”

Lawrence counted the combat units on his side.

Except for a few witches who are reluctant to use it, there are not many others who can fight.

It's okay to bully weak chickens, if you really fight with Redbeard, you will only lose both.

It's not that I can't fight, but the main thing is that I can't bear to get injured by Saliel and Delen.

"Forget it, you can't have zero deaths against Avari and Uribe, if you really fight with Redbeard, a batch of people who have been trained by me will die again."

"I feel like I'm still too weak compared to Count Vakiri, alas!"

Lawrence quickly became firm, "I should still find foreign aid, on the one hand, to develop trade and obtain more supplies, and on the other hand, to recruit some barbarians who have nothing to do to work for me." ”

"When the fog clears, go out with the sled team and see if you can visit the barbarian tribes of the south."

"Those barbarians often go out to rob, and obviously need a channel to sell their stolen goods, and if someone hires them to fight, as long as the remuneration is right, they should be able to win them over."

"Before you can use these barbarians, you must first have the stupid idea of not letting them have bad intentions and think that it is more appropriate to rob me."

Lawrence thought about the idea that he had just come up with, that a civilized person like himself thought about robbery all day long, and that group of barbarians outside would only be worse than himself.

"Take advantage of the winter to make more weapons, and I'll take a look at the blacksmith shop too."

"Make a bellows for them."

Lawrence couldn't make a windmill and watermill, so he quickly relaxed his brain and made a simpler hand-pulled bellows.

This thing can be used not only in the stove, but also in striking iron to raise the temperature of the flame.

The mountains and forests are exceptionally quiet in foggy weather, and the scene is different in the dimly lit houses.

As a lord, Lawrence carefully crafted tools on the first floor, while two maids tended to the children in the room, or took a nap in bed.

The women on the second floor were concentrating on playing cards.

Sarriel thought of something, dropped the wooden sign and walked to the cupboard, crouching down and rummaging for something.

Sophia plays cards in place of Saliel and three other witches.

While the group was playing cards, Salil came over with a box.

"This is the last time Lawrence made potato chips, and I happened to be hungry, so I'll try them."

Sariel grabbed three slices of potatoes and put them in her mouth.

"Click~Click~Click~"

Saliel swallowed the potato slices under the gaze of several people, "It's not delicious, only the taste of potatoes." ”

Kharan also didn't think the potato chips were tasty, but after listening to the sound of Saliel eating the potato chips, he wanted to try them too.

"You can take out the honey and dip it in the honey and eat it."

Sariel thought for a moment and quickly nodded: "Okay!" ”

Once Lawrence would be scolded by Salil if he wanted to drink a bowl of sugar water, but now Saliel and the others can eat snacks and dip honey casually!

After the originally ordinary potato chips and honey were paired together, several people instantly whetted their appetites.

Sophia, in particular, kept reaching for the potato chips.

Everyone happily bites into the potato chips and makes exciting sounds.

Soon potato chips became a more popular delicacy among girls than fried chicken!
