For a long time, little was known about the East, except that it was more affluent and had more powerful wizards.

There is a sea across it from the East, and the climate here is terrible, and the rulers of the East should not care about the noise of this land.

Lawrence thought about what was going on over there, and soon gave up thinking about it, continuing to feel the support of the beauties in front of him and on the left and right.

The pool is not a place to think about big things, and I am not the same as before.

Not only is it a large country with a population of more than 2 million, but it has also gradually developed the power of science and technology.

Lawrence quickly emerged from the pool, and after more than ten days of walking in the wild snow, his feet were soaked in hot water, and he had a swollen feeling of bleeding out.

By this time, it was almost dawn, and Lawrence was gradually feeling sleepy.

In his bedroom, Lawrence quickly lay down comfortably.

When I woke up again, it was already afternoon.

The maids at the bedside, Isabel and Yulia, saw Lawrence wake up and put their hands on their abdomen and bowed respectfully in greeting.

"Master, you're awake."

"Hmm." Lawrence stretched and smiled, "I'm a little hungry, let the kitchen bring dinner, I'll eat some first." ”

"Yes, master!" Yulia quickly went to inform the kitchen, while Isabel stayed here and waited for orders.

Even though it was only half a day, Lawrence had quickly adapted to the privileged life at home.

The clothes on his body have all been changed, and the hair that has not been washed for a long time has been carefully washed by the maids several times last night, whether it is the armpits, toes or legs, they have been thoroughly washed several times.

Lawrence looked at Esabelle, who had silver hair and looked like a wife and a noblewoman, and asked, "Have all the people looking for me returned?" ”

"It's all back." Aisabel said respectfully, "Lord Saliel is taking a nap in the living room downstairs, and Lord Sophia is studying at school. ”

"Lord Sophia has always cared about you, go to the Mountain Wind Manor in advance and wait for you to come back."

Lawrence smiled: "It seems that she hasn't studied seriously during this time, but I don't blame her." ”

Aisabel said gently, "Yes, merciful master. ”

Lawrence felt that Sariel would come to him.

Sure enough, within a few minutes, Saliel came up.

Dressed in a linen skirt and yellow slippers, Saliel looked at Lawrence with a happy expression.

"Lawrence, you're awake! This time you're back many days late! ”

Lawrence argued: "It's really late, but at first I was going to go out for a few months, and now I'm back in ten days because I'm homesick, and I didn't even eat a few bites when someone left me to eat on the way." ”

Saliel walked over and said happily: "When others invite them to eat, they must finish eating before leaving, and it's not good to come back after a few bites." ”

"That's right." "When we invite someone to dinner and they take a few bites and leave, we definitely feel that he's either in a hurry or just can't talk to us," Lawrence said. ”

Sariel wondered, "Who invited you to dinner?" Female? ”

Lawrence nodded, "There are women and men, I met a group of southern witches on the other side of the mountain, and I met ...... It's a group of mountain people, I don't understand them, but luckily there are people who know Loffen. ”

Both hill tribes invited Lawrence to dinner, one refused outright, and the other went into the house to eat a few bites of fruit, and after getting the news that he wanted to know, he left directly.

"Help me prepare some spices, and I'll give them a jar of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar."

Saril said happily: "Good! I'm going to tell Emma! ”

At this time the maids brought food, and Lawrence soon ate another plate of meat and drank a bowl of fish soup.

Sophia, Catherine and others came up to greet each other one after another, and Lawrence and the family quickly returned to the previous natural mode of getting along, removing the superfluous touch.

Over the next few days, Lawrence spent the next few days slowly sorting out the takeaways from the trip.

The main thing is to draw a map, using dirt and stone to draw an accurate sand table model.

On the contrary, there is nothing going on in the Land of Stars, most of the Ice Land has not yet melted snow, and the Port of Ferry and Flying Fish are not a big deal, despite the visits of merchants and nobles.

Several places in the south, led by Seravin and local prestige, began spring ploughing ahead of schedule.

The provinces of Gran and Io have always been in a state of laissez-faire, because of the lack of corresponding managers, so they left it alone and let the people in these places farm their own land.

Unless it's a clear rebellion against the rule of the Star Country, it doesn't matter what they do.

There was no tax levied last year, so there was basically no resistance, at least not in Lawrence.

The province of Gran was better developed, with people from the rest of the kingdom managing it together, and coal mines could also be sold to the people of the Frozen Lands, so it was not long before the locals replaced the original nobles and coordinated the production of the kingdom.

While supplying coal and some resources, these people themselves became honorary nobles.

This part was made up of merchants, surrendered prisoners of war, and some of the original great nobles.

Both the royal family and the nobles were removed from the two places, and the hunt for the rest of the nobles was much less, and because of the mercy after the war subsided, some nobles who had supported the students were pardoned, and some lucky people who had visited the Land of Ice in person.

Because of the relationship between messaging and travel, many anxious things gradually stop being in a hurry, either they don't need to be solved, or the people below solve them themselves.

It takes a month to get from the Wave Kingdom to the Land of Ice, and a trip back and forth has long missed the best time to deal with it, so Lawrence's desire to conquer the outside world is very low.

Rather than conquering outsiders, Lawrence wanted to spread the ideas and culture of the place.

If you go outside, you must first settle inside.

After making the sand table, Lawrence drew another map.

"Jade, you ask the nun to make multiple copies of this map, at least fifty copies."

Lawrence called Ms. Jade, "This matter is not in a hurry, you can take your time, but a long-term matter, there will always be a need." ”

Jade nodded, "Yes, then can I arrange this for our students?" I guess this could be a test for those trainee nuns. ”

"Yes." Lawrence did not have a photocopier, only a humanoid scribe.

The girls of the Holy Virgin College can go on to different careers, and many of the incompetent are going to be nuns, or even maids.

It takes luck to become a maid, and strength is needed to become a nun.

You must be able to write well, and at the same time you must have a devout faith, know multiple languages, and have good memory and arithmetic.

Lawrence remembered the flowers he had encountered on the road.

"Jade, go call Delenn, I met some strange flowers on the way, maybe she knows something."

When Jade heard this, she asked, "What kind of flower?" Maybe I know something. ”

Lawrence looked at the jadeite and was curious about this, so he described the flowers.

"It's a flower that can spit out mist, I can't see their leaves and rhizomes, they are like jars and bottles that grow on the ground, they have red bodies, and they have some distance from each other, they can spew out the mist of chasing people, and they can also suck those fogs back."

Jadeite's eyes quickly lit up when she heard this, revealing a look of surprise.

"Master, my master, we are rich! This is a treasure God has given us! It's a treasure like gold! ”

Emerald's attitude made Lawrence feel joy as well, and Lawrence smiled and asked, "Oh? What kind of flower is this? As I was leaving, I heard the roar of the Earth Bear, which might have been destroyed. ”

Lawrence did not guarantee that the flowers were still in place, and made some pessimistic estimates.

Emerald smiled and said, "No, those Earth Storm Bears should be the guardians of those flowers, as well as users and cultivators. ”

Lawrence was even more curious," he said. ”

Emerald stood in front of Lawrence's desk and politely spoke about the characteristics of the flower.

"The name of this flower is the giant devil's mouth flower, also known as the man-eating flower, which feeds on the flesh and blood brains of beasts and humans, and breeds a large number of demon cordyceps in the body."

Lawrence instantly realized the value of the flower.

Cordyceps is a type of cordyceps that resembles intestines, and when burned, it emits an intoxicating smell and is very popular among the nobility.

Lawrence quickly looked at Emerald and said, "You said that the Earth Storm Bear is the user and breeder of this flower, and the Earth Storm Bear also uses the Demon Cordyceps?" ”

Jade smiled mysteriously, "Yes, it may not be what you think, the stimulation of the Devil's Mouth Flower is a little stronger, and the sharp teeth in the mouth can cut through the cortex of most animals. ”

"It's not a trouble for the Earth Storm Bear, the Earth Storm Bear, especially the male Earth Storm Bear, rarely has contact with the female Earth Storm Bear because of the relationship between living alone, and usually pouts his butt and lies on top of the Devil's Mouth Flower, so that the Devil's Mouth Flower can paralyze the prey's teeth and help it relax."

Emerald smiled: "Every time the Demon Mouth Flower gets a lot of gifts, the Earth Storm Bear will not think about finding the mother bear, and will continue to stay here to take care of these flowers." ”

Lawrence felt a chill that he wouldn't use such a thing anyway.

"Is this thing harmful to humans?" Lawrence thought seriously: "I don't think it's a good thing to use the things that stimulate the brain for us nobles, whose brains are not very good in the first place. ”

Jade was surprised: "There should be nothing?" ”

"Maybe relax your mind and they'll get smarter, maybe?" Emerald wasn't sure, but wouldn't mind letting someone else try it.

Lawrence did not want his men to die on such a strange luxury, which was henceforth only sold to the outside world, or used for internal research, and must not be allowed to be treated as a pastime and enjoyment by the nobles within.

"I've also met some witches who may be from the South, who don't seem to know about our existence and don't seem to have a good relationship with the elves."

Lawrence recalls the conversation with the hunters, "I feel like their language is a bit like the dark elves of the South, go and call Deren and Candace and Satith and we'll talk together." ”

Talking to only one person about these things will inevitably miss some important news.

Lawrence didn't trust or value Emerald that much.

By the time Emerald joined, Lawrence's side had largely settled down.

Moreover, Jade was persecuted and fled outside, and her ability was also very limited, and her status was not as good as that of Candace after joining.

Although she is also Lawrence's woman, everyone knows that Lawrence has no shortage of women, nor is there a shortage of useless witches.

Emerald soon brought the rest of the people.

"I don't know." Delen's answer was very Delen.

She had spent most of her life in the valley, and had lived a good life with Lawrence for ten years, and now her memories of the past were very vague.

Most of Delen's memories have been taken up by a happy and comfortable life.

Lawrence felt that instead of counting on Delenn, he should ask Losanda as an expert on it.

Even though Delenn was the daughter of Los Angeles, Lawrence believed she didn't learn much.

Candace's answer was also vague, "I'm not sure, because the language of the dark elves evolved from the elven language, and it sounds similar in many places, and some of the people who have been expelled by the elves and live near the elven village have this tendency in terms of language. ”

Satis took the initiative and said, "I can go and see, and if it is our clan, I will bring them over to be loyal to the master." ”

Lawrence wanted to go on his own, but after hearing Satis's petition, he found that it was more appropriate for Sartice to go for this kind of thing.

In addition to not wanting to go out and endure hardships when they just returned home, there is also the need to talk to their priests, nuns and missionaries, and to spread some of their own teachings and ideas, especially to the areas under their rule.

Get out there.

Lawrence found himself doing the "going out" thing all the time.

From the earliest out of the cold land, to the cultural and language going out in previous years, now it is a deeper and larger range of going out.

Lawrence quickly set a general direction and left small things to his subordinates to do.

"Alright, Satis will lead fifty warriors, fifty farmers, and ten trainee nuns to tell the occupants of the greatness of our Star Church and of me."

Satith quickly bowed her head: "Yes, master." ”

Lawrence arranged a few more things, then let the rest of the group leave, sitting in his chair and thinking about things.

There were not only nuns but also male warriors and generals, as well as male scholars and artisans.

It is not just a girls' school that allows women to receive education, but a co-educational school, which arranges women's colleges that are vulnerable to harassment, to protect them and a stable learning environment.

Of course, rabbits also eat grass at the edge of the nest, which is a normal thing.

In a way, it can be said to be an incentive.

Men are more suitable for this kind of thing.

"Am I being too honest?" Lawrence felt a little worried, "I've always been too honest, savages can brag, I have never learned." ”

Lawrence pondered the trouble.

"This time, I went out for more than ten days and came back, if I just told the people in the village like this, then everyone would definitely find it boring, why did I come back like this?"

"It is detrimental to my majesty, and to the majesty of God."

Lawrence frowned, thinking about how he would describe his trip to the west to the Military Academy, and to the young men in the various towns and harbors.

In fact, the dull and boring journey must not be said, it is interesting, evil, and awesome!

Enviable!

Lawrence began to rack his brains to think about how to process his own travel experience, how to portray a boring and anxious trip home as an adventure that everyone envied.
