Chapter 105: The Western Kingdom's Reaction
Loshanda quickly came to a conclusion.
"I can't tell how old it is, this oak tree must be over a thousand years old, and it's bigger than many of the oaks I've seen."
"My time is too short compared to it to understand the mystery of its birth."
Losanda is in awe of the Great Oak, which is no longer a large oak, but a symbol of nature and history.
Lawrence said, "Then we will use this as one of our strongholds, and send people to build houses and homes around the big oak tree." ”
"It's still a long way before winter, and we're building houses faster and faster, so that we can build a big house here before the eternal night," Khalan advised. ”
Losanda was very fond of the big oak tree and agreed: "That's good. ”
Lawrence looked around, Saliel and Sophia didn't care, and Delen definitely supported Loshanda's opinion.
"It's good to be able to live outside, and I want to live in a sunny place too."
Lawrence said helplessly: "But housing is not only about the house, but also about many things, such as the pool, the kitchen, the drainage pipes, the water purification device, the fresh eggs, goat's milk and fish. ”
"If we move, we may have to suffer a little more than safety issues, are you willing?"
"I think it's better in the cave, there's nothing here, and there are a lot of dead people underground, so it's a hassle to clean up." ”
Sophia also nodded, "It's better to live in the cave, our servants are all there." ”
Delen, Kehalan, and Loshanda also pondered conveniences.
The Great Oak has a historical significance and spiritual worship for them here.
But now we enjoy all the conveniences brought by Lawrence, and at the same time, these are inseparable from the support of a large number of people.
Lawrence continued: "A lot of our stuff is a match, and it's impossible for people to come over and the rest of the stuff just come. ”
"To make potato beef stew, you need the best oven, and you also need to clean the pool, potato field, cellar, vegetable field and other supporting things."
"There are some things that you don't usually notice, such as bugs, rats and snakes and other troublesome things, the environment in the camp is good, and it depends on the efforts of many people."
"If we can build our own house in a short period of time, but we can't build a place for others to live in a short period of time, then we will have to move in by ourselves, wouldn't it be the same as living in seclusion?"
Lawrence watched the reaction of several witches, and this opportunity was the perfect opportunity to reinforce the importance of ordinary people, and make several witches understand the benefits of having a group of subordinates.
Only by understanding this will they understand the importance of ordinary people.
Loshanda was persuaded by Lawrence, and quickly nodded and said, "You're right, there's no rush now. ”
Loshanda turned to look at the big oak, "This ancient oak has been here for a long time, and it has enough time to wait for us. ”
Kharan stepped aside.
"If I come to live next year, then I will use this time to let the flowers around me grow and wither, and return the nutrients from the ground to the ancient trees."
Lawrence and the others evacuated here in an orderly manner, leaving Keharan to dispose of the ghoul vines and the ancient corpses underground.
The Ug people have buried a large number of dead people here for a long time, and these corpses will take many years to dissolve properly, and some will not disappear for hundreds of years, leaving all kinds of bones and debris in the ground.
Keharan's ripening ability accelerates the growth of nearby vegetation, which is usually a poison tonic for these plants, making it the best nourishment.
Rapid birth and death, can quickly decompose the nutrients in the land.
The downside is that you won't be able to come over for years.
Sarriel asked, "How will these poison gases dissipate next year?" ”
"Burn it." Lawrence gave the easiest way to go, "You can trust Kharlan, she's always been so reliable. ”
Sariel felt a little surprised, "I'm also reliable. ”
Lawrence laughed and said, "Reliable, all reliable." ”
Sariel's weather forecast is actually strong as well.
The group quickly returned the same way, because they had been in the village of Uge for a long time, and it was already late in the evening when they returned to the manor.
When Sariel got home, she took off her muddy shoes and skirt and put on the pajamas she had worn in the shower.
The rest of the witches did the same, taking off their dirty clothes and bathing, and then they all changed into beautiful and noble new clothes.
The clothes worn by the aristocratic women who had been purchased before were changed, and even Sophia was put on new clothes.
Sophia is no longer small, she is developing very beautifully, and she is getting sexier and hotter.
Lawrence also changed into clean and comfortable clothes, and there was a special drying room in the cave, although there was no sunlight, but the temperature was enough to dry clothes.
After taking a shower, everyone began to eat, and at the dinner table Salyl asked, "Lawrence, what are we going to do tomorrow?" ”
Lawrence thought about it for a moment and realized that there was nothing left to do.
There was enough food, enough clothes, and enough fuel this year for the large-scale construction of houses and boats.
You can also continue to collect some fuel during this time before winter.
"Prepare cured meats and pickles, that's it."
"Sheep and chickens can be killed to reduce winter consumption, and some chickens that are two or three years old can be eliminated."
Saliel ate the oily grilled chicken thighs and asked curiously, "What else?" ”
Lawrence looked at Sariel strangely, "That's not enough?" ”
Sariel said as a matter of course: "Emma and they are done with this, I have nothing to do." ”
Seeing that the hard-working Sariel was so hardworking, Lawrence also considered what to arrange for her.
Keharan reminded: "Isn't it good to be idle? Sariel, you're too influenced by the Berserker bloodline and don't have the grace of a witch. ”
Lawrence said to Keharan: "Don't teach Sariel badly, hard work is a virtue, for example, I am very industrious. ”
"Sariel, don't care about Keharan's words, Kehalan has done a lot of things, since she came to us, she seems to be very lazy and leisurely every day, and has actually helped us a lot, doing a lot of hard things."
Keharan was a little embarrassed when Lawrence said that.
Saliel agreed: "Keharan is indeed very capable, I can't do what she does, Lawrence, what do you want me to do?" ”
This one was a bit of a problem, and Lawrence felt like there was nothing he could do right now.
Things like cleaning and doing chores happen every day, and Sariel is not suitable for this kind of thing at the moment.
There are endless things to do in the church, and it is not for Salil either.
Lawrence quickly said, "It's cold, you knit me a sweater." ”
Saril said happily, "Yes! ”
Sophia saw that Sarri had something to do, and she followed suit: "What do I do?" If you don't go out, master, I won't have anything to do in the house. ”
Lawrence said: "You and Delen are learning to fight, and your perception has been trained now, but your physical fitness is still a little bit poor, so you need to improve your strength and reflexes as soon as possible." ”
Sophia didn't want to do something so difficult, but after many battles, she also understood the importance of fighting.
"Yes, master!" Sophia agreed.
Lawrence was not idle, he insisted on exercising every day, and from the age of fifteen he planned to live to the age of 100, and reasonably planned his diet and living environment.
Soon the whole territory entered a period of recuperation and recuperation, until the ships from the west came to shore and brought good news that was not bad news.
Salavin quickly reported: "Master! Redbeard and Andrew were captured by the armies of the Western Kingdoms, and they sent a caravan over to demand an exchange of prisoners. ”
Lawrence looked stunned.
It didn't take long for Lawrence to react and understand why this was happening.
Redbeard belongs to the Wakiri people, who used to rely on others not knowing their details and not being efficient to arrest them, arresting people or doing business along the coast.
Usually others don't want to pay attention to them, even the pirates of the Rofen Kingdom frequently go to the coastal area to make a fortune, because they are all a group of people, and others can't tell the difference between Redbeard and the rest of the pirates, so they are not targeted.
Until his side established contact with the Western Kingdom and exchanged a lot of information with each other.
Originally, there wasn't much going on, and the efficiency of the Western Kingdom was not enough to mobilize a large army to capture the Haikou.
It doesn't matter how many poor people are kidnapped in normal times, and they can't react at all if they haven't been around for more than ten years.
Western aristocrats also have a strong barbarian tradition, and martial virtue is actually not weak at all, but they are used to living a comfortable life, and they don't want to fight for the people at the bottom.
The trouble was that Lawrence sent people into the Hokuriku Kingdom and captured the Marquis of the Hokuriku Kingdom.
Don't look at this marquis as wasteful, it's useless, but people are really the cards of the nobility.
This was a far more serious act than several attacks by the Kingdom of Loven, forcing the Western Kingdom to quickly form an alliance.
This kind of planned attack on the opposing aristocratic ruler is no longer an ordinary fly behavior for the entire Western aristocracy, but a blow to the opponent's eggs!
Everyone sensed the danger, so everyone no longer ignored these barbarians, but decided to unite to protect themselves from the moment the Marquis of York was captured.
