When there is nothing urgent, time always flies very quickly.

When you suddenly feel a little cold and want to look for a quilt one day, it is autumn coming.

Heidi was slow to respond to this change, and it wasn't until one day when she went out for a walk with her school friends and saw a group of people drying quilts that she sensed the arrival of autumn.

There seemed to be something special about this day, and Heidi clearly felt that there was something special today.

"Dean, is the afternoon science class still in the classroom?"

Heidi came back from outside and saw the Emerald passing through the hallway, and quickly stepped forward to ask about the afternoon's science lesson.

Seeing that it was Heidi, Jade stopped and smiled, "In the master's bathroom, you can go over now, maybe you can help." ”

"Thank you, Dean." Heidi politely thanked her, and then went to the large bathroom with Sophie.

Soon Heidi walked into the large and open bathroom, which had several large pillars supporting the roof, and the whole large bathroom could be divided into several different areas, with an area dedicated to dance, a seating area and a toilet.

The large bathroom is where the hosts and hostesses come almost every day.

Because of the frequent visits, several hostesses have fixed their positions one after another, and around their beds according to their own preferences, placing their own clothes and bedding.

This act of placing self-marked items is, of course, the prerogative of only a few.

Walking past the private bednets, which were furnished like livestock sheds, Heidi despised the aesthetics of these savage women.

As they walk into the pool, Heidi and Sophie see Lawrence observing.

Lawrence, dressed in a simple loose summer shirt and shorts, sat by the pool and watched the equipment in the water, with Loshanda and Sophia standing beside him, as well as several maids.

"Master." Heidi and Sophie walked over to say hello.

Lawrence smiled: "Come and see, I handed over all the technology to you, but in the past few days, I suddenly remembered that a lot of equipment may not be able to be made, so let the Iron Fort try to make it and see how much." ”

Heidi and Sophie walked to the edge of the pool, where there was a small boat the size of a foot that was paddling forward, powered not by sails and oars, but by two exhaust pipes.

An oil lamp was burning under a semi-enclosed metal container on the boat, and hot gas was coming out of the two metal pipes that spiraled outward, and the heat propelled the boat forward.

"The steam engine I taught you is a little more complicated." Lawrence smiled: "This is just a casual play, the current technology of the Iron Furnace Castle is still some distance away from the various equipment needed to make the steam engine, and after the autumn harvest, the Iron Furnace Castle will be idle, and then you can make more detailed equipment." ”

Basic parts such as springs and screws have not yet been made, and there is a lack of machining capacity for precision parts.

The production of farm tools and weapons alone could no longer meet the technology and needs of this side, and for a long time to come, it was a joint effort of scholars and blacksmiths.

From embroidery needles to machine furnaces, all of these require all-round technical support.

Heidi looked at the steam boat and asked curiously: "Master, this fist-sized water tank looks very capable of burning, how long can it burn?" ”

"I can last more than 20 minutes." Lawrence thought of something else, "Different fuels produce different amounts of energy, such as wood and coal, and perhaps in the future we will be able to find better fuels than coal." ”

Heidi said: "Coal has been burning for a long time, and if it could be burned more than coal, it would be expensive, right?" ”

"I can't say for sure." Lawrence ended the topic with a smile, and suddenly asked with some emotion, "Heidi, how long have you been here?" ”

Heidi said honestly: "I came seven years ago in the new calendar, and I have received candy three times so far, it should be three years." ”

Lawrence nodded, "It's been three years, so do you think it's better because of our living standards here, or the aristocratic life in your memory?" ”

Heidi said without hesitation: "Here! It's a hundred times better than the previous place! ”

Lawrence could sense that it was a genuine compliment.

Not only Heidi thinks so, but Sophie also thinks so, and everyone in the Land of Stars is proud to think that they are doing better than the outside, much better!

Soon the rest of the students of the College of Saints Mary came, and Lawrence began to lecture, imparting what little scientific knowledge was left to the studious young men.

After the lecture, the rest of the group began to stand and leave, and the Virgen Hela, who had been waiting outside for ten minutes, walked in.

"Master, the maids of Flying Fish Harbor have been trained, and now they can replenish the shortage of young female slaves in winter."

Lawrence frowned when he heard this, "Those female captives of the Io Kingdom? I feel like I need to watch for a while more than just send it now, and I don't care that much about that enjoyment. ”

Hela quickly lowered her head and said, "It's not the female nobles of the Io Kingdom, it's those female nobles of the Durella Kingdom two years ago, those noble ladies who came over voluntarily. ”

Durella ...... Lawrence quickly remembered that King Durella had banished the rebellious nobles to the land of stars, and because he didn't like the traitors and criminals, he had placed some of them in a seaside fishing village east of Vakiri.

The women, on the other hand, stayed in the Flying Fish Harbor to be trained, and relied on their knowledge to work for the Flying Fish Harbor, transforming into followers of the Celestial Church in churches and monasteries.

Lawrence nodded, "I don't have a shortage of women here for the time being, their husbands and fathers were tragically killed while going out to sea on an adventure, and you ask their opinions on whether to continue to live in Flying Fish Harbor or work in the town of Phumetheus." ”

"I can arrange for them to work in local churches and monasteries, provide houses and food for their children, allow them to start families freely, and send them back to their hometown of Durela."

Hela nodded, "Yes, master." ”

Lawrence suddenly felt that his attack was too dark, the royal family members of the Kingdom of Glen that he knew before, and the bear family who had visited him could actually survive, but he did not pardon them, so he died.

Although this is war, this is the competition of interests, but every time I think about it, I still feel that it is too dark.

Lawrence sighed, "God has conveyed His will to me, that those pioneers who come to us on their own initiative to seek knowledge may be forgiven of their sins." ”

"Men and women who have come to us for business, trade, study, and visit can be pardoned, and I will allow them to live in dignity in the cities of the Land of Stars, and provide them with a shop to operate."

"You go to every church to convey God's commands, whether day or night, the sun, moon and stars in the sky will record everything, and those pioneers who spread knowledge and bring advanced technology and beautiful knowledge, whether they are from our church or not, are worthy of respect."

"If they are talented enough, then I will give them a more prominent position, whether it is the nobility of the province of Gran or the nobility of the province of Io."

Hearing that it was God's will, Hela became more respectful and humbly said, "Yes, great prophet!" ”

The damned ones are dead, and there is no problem in pardoning some of them next.

Especially those nobles who came to study and exchange knowledge in the early days will inevitably have a grudge against the affairs of the Kingdom of Grand and the Kingdom of Io.

Now that the land is vast and sparsely populated, resources are abundant, and as long as Lawrence has a need, naturally there are a large number of nobles willing to come and manage the land for Lawrence.

Prioritizing the selection of the right ones from among the nobles and talents who came to study will help to improve the special status of the Frozen Lands, especially Oak City.

This year, the pain of the Io Kingdom was quickly healed.

When the peasant serfs in various regions found that they had to pay only a small part of the wheat they harvested, and that they did not need to pay additional taxes, they quickly forgot that they were Aiou.

The resistance of a small group of nobles could not overthrow the established rule, and the abundant harvest in various places soon brought the war to a smooth end.

Lawrence was drying the wheat at the foot of the mountain, looking at the golden wheat all over the ground, and then at the snowy mountains and the blue sky and white clouds in the distance.

"This year is another year of good harvest, and then it will be the age of civilization."

Lawrence touched the corners of his mouth and chin, still without a beard.

Compared to other barbarians, he has a lot less hair, and he doesn't have that kind of black pressed hair on his chest and thighs and arms.

There is very little hair anywhere else except hair, including underneath.

"Slow growth is not a bad thing, and after almost ten years of hard work, it's time to enjoy life."

As the ninth year of the new calendar was almost over, Lawrence bent down with a wooden tool and continued to clean up the wheat on the ground, thinking about how to enjoy life next. (End of chapter)
