Chapter Sixty-Nine: The Life You Longed For

Lawrence gave the simple weaving tools to Sariel.

"Sariel, can you show Emma and Bull that this works?"

Sariel took the spinning pendant that Lawrence handed over, and the wooden wheel cart that could be turned on the ground.

"What is this for?"

"For weaving wool." Lawrence gestured with the spinning pendant, "Wrap the wool around it like this, it will be much easier to smoke it later." ”

"And this is a carding device for wool."

When Sariel saw the comb, she said, "What are you doing with this?" Wouldn't it be okay to separate the wool by hand? ”

Lawrence wasn't surprised by Sariel's thoughts, "Yes, so let's make one and play with it first, and you can make wool into clothes in your own way first." ”

Saliel nodded, "Okay, I'll do this, Emma and Bull will too, and Durella's seamstress and many others will do the same, and there will be quite a few people." ”

The 2,000 pieces of wool purchased this time were actually not much, and the 2,000 pieces of wool were first made into yarn for storage, and then made into blankets and clothing fabrics.

The process is not in a hurry, and it starts when you have time.

However, Lawrence also considered the issue of machining.

"Wool is done in a big house, and let everyone build a longhouse for wool processing, right next to the stream, and the windows are bigger, so don't use fire in the house."

Sariel said, "Okay, just leave it to Emma and the others to do it." ”

Sophia reminded: "This wool is ours, one person can divide it...... Three hundred parts wool! ”

Sariel corrected Sophia, "Lawrence said that these clothes should be distributed to many people, not just us. ”

Sophia looked at Lawrence, "Master, why do we give them our things, aren't they our slaves?" Why do you have to give them clothes when you haven't done anything? It's all wool! ”

Lawrence understood Sophia's thoughts, "Sophia's thoughts are the thoughts of many nobles outside, whether it is the Kingdom of Loven or the South, the West, and the East. ”

"They can't eat all the food on their estates, and even if it's rotten and moldy, it won't be given to serfs and slaves."

"Even if their clothes were eaten by rats and looted by robbers, they would not be distributed to serfs and soldiers."

"We are all God's people, and we must share God's favor among the rest of the believers as we gain their reverence and protection."

"God has given us a lot, we have received a lot, we have received a lot, and we have divided some of it, just like a stream flowing from a snow-capped mountain to a mountain, only in this way can we bring more life to grow in the land under our feet."

Saliel nodded and said, "Yes, Sophia." ”

Sariel and Lawrence have come together to this day, and they have long understood a little bit of Lawrence's strange behavior.

"Lawrence did nothing wrong, we gave Salavin food and clothes so that he could do things for us properly."

"We helped Emma and Bull, and Emma and Bull helped us."

"Although the work of guarding Lawrence is done by a few of us, Lawrence's men have also helped a lot."

Sariel didn't feel that she was being protected by the rest of the people, because they had always protected Lawrence and the family, not the serfs and outsiders below.

"If Lawrence thinks it's the right thing to do, it's because it's right!"

Saliel doesn't think too much about it, and she doesn't skimp on this bit of wool.

Sophia didn't understand the specific reason, and nodded after hearing Saryl's explanation, "The master must be right, and what Sari said is right." ”

Lawrence smiled: "It's not directly, give priority to our soldiers and contributing shield girls to distribute woolen clothes, the rest of them wear last year's first, our next main task is to grind wheat, and...... Things to do to make money at sea. ”

Sariel was reminded by Lawrence before remembering this, "Yes, I forgot about it, Fryce and they will send someone to go to sea together." ”

Sophia said happily: "Master, who are you going to sea this time?" To harvest wool, or to harvest cattle? Our warehouses can't hold that many things, so let's make five more warehouses at the lumberyard quickly! ”

Lawrence looked at the field outside, and the warehouse of the manor really couldn't fit it.

Only ten cows brought up four yaks suitable for the alpine climate, and the rest of the farming and dairy cows were still at the bottom of the mountain.

The current site is too small to accommodate so many things.

"There is now a big hole in the cave with a living room, and in the past few days we have put the Holy Light Bead in it to illuminate it, and let Deren and Loshanda expand the cave a bit, and we will move in after the fall, and rebuild the castle here."

Hearing that the castle was finally going to be built, Sophia clapped her hands happily, "It's finally time to build the castle!" ”

Lawrence took a big step, "Sophia follows me out for a walk, I'm going to survey the extent of our territory now, roughly figure out how much we have, and call Khalan up." ”

Sariel hurriedly said, "I'll go too!" ”

Lawrence nodded and said, "Okay, then you give Emma the tools first, and Sophia and I will go to lead the sheep." ”

"Okay!" Sariel quickly ran, hurried to hand over the work to the maid, and went to change into a pair of trousers suitable for sheep riding.

Kehalan came out of the house slowly, looking at Lawrence, who was feeding the Dom sheep.

"Didn't you investigate the distance around you a while ago? Why do you want to go? Khallan felt that Lawrence was a little overly diligent, not at all like Sarile said he was lazy.

Lawrence feeds the Dom sheep fresh peas and eggs, "You're talking about the winter, it's been a long time now. ”

"Last time I was mainly surveying the distance and width of the river, and the previous times I was busy with the terrain and roads between several strongholds."

"This time, in addition to the approximate area review, I will also check the breeding status of the bees, as well as the condition of various minerals and wood on our land, which are our assets."

"If you don't want to go today, you can rest at home, and you can go again tomorrow, this matter will not end for a while."

Sophia echoed excitedly: "It's all ours!" Lots and lots of valuable stuff!! ”

Copper, iron, clay, oak, acorn, fish, bird, fruit, berries, bees, herbs...... This time the oak trade gave Sophia and Salil and others a sense of ownership in advance.

They used to feel like they lived in this land, and they were bosses and things like that.

Now, after opening up trade, I found that I was so rich!

You can exchange it for good things casually, whether it's bird droppings or fruit, even bulky wood and ore, you can exchange it for food.

Kharan was much sluggish in this regard, and followed with a look of lack of energy.

Because she is not obviously poor, even if she was once the mountain owner of Mount Talim, she does not have the opportunity to transform this status into wealth, and she does not attach the same importance to cattle and clothes as a barbarian, so naturally she does not have a deep understanding of the joy of Sophia and others.

It's not that she is dismissive of wealth, but she lacks a real sense of how much wealth she has so far, and she doesn't understand how much value she has created.

Lawrence quickly checked his territory.

There are now three villages and an outer forest stronghold in the territory.

The village of Uger, the town of Bhumixiu, the port of Dum.

These include defensive buildings, farms, mines, quarries, pastures, woods, swamps, rivers, mills, fish ponds, and apiaries.

Three villages guard the manor's expansion, bordering the Sea of Ice to the north, the village of Kur to the east, the hinterland of the kingdom of Rofen to the south, and the mountains of Agama to the west.

The area of the oak trees in Mount Ugg was not surveyed for the time being, so Lawrence first re-surveyed the approximate area around the estate, including the newly reclaimed land.

The area of the estate is only 2 square kilometers, including forest camps and fields, rivers, hillsides, nearby meadows and road forests, and only 7 or 800 acres of more than 3,000 acres of land can be developed into arable land, and most of the rest are rivers and stone slopes.

Lawrence planned to build a palace covering an area of 100 acres, and then slowly build a larger faΓ§ade, which would be both a castle and a palace, integrating the defense of the manor, the reserve of materials, the military garrison, and the banquet.

Including the current manor, but also the river and the forest camp opposite, as well as the high mountains behind.

The castle is a royal palace, and it is larger than the traditional royal palace, with vegetable and wheat orchards, and a castle within a castle.

The first is to build a luxurious palace, the palace must be high, the walls must be thick, the palace must be covered with soft wool blankets, and then open the body in it every day!!
