Chapter 40: A Harvest

After talking to Dulu, Lawrence asked Dulu to take five "best slave girls".

These five superb slave girls not only did not make Lawrence drool satisfied, but let the smart Lawrence discover their background and strength.

Lawrence sees the quality of a beautiful woman as a sign of power.

There may be some beauties in the small forces, but whether they can keep this kind of beauties is a test of strength and luck.

The big forces rely on the vast territory wealth, and enough searchers, it is easier to find some beautiful women.

Among them, there must be all kinds of means to make the beauty and the person behind the beauty cooperate.

Beauty may not have strength in itself, but there is no problem in seeing it as strength.

Lawrence himself has this process, and the quantity and quality of the beauties around him are directly proportional to his own strength.

During Sophia's time, Lawrence was just a thin and lonely teenager, and there was only a little slave girl by his side who was careful not to do heavy work.

During Sariel's time, the lonely Lawrence broke free from the heavy labor of the land, began to have his own shack, and had plenty of time to think.

By the time of Keharan, Lawrence of this period already had his own wooden house, had a dozen slaves, and could eat fried chicken.

During the Delenn period, Lawrence's power expanded rapidly, engulfing the mountain tribes and several population settlements at the foot of the mountain.

Catherine's time, a period in which she had gained influence and fame through constant business and fighting, bared her fangs in both the South and the West.

By Kassandra's time, the fist was hard enough to break the traditional barbarian forces and force the pursuers on the Church's side to flee.

During Heidi's time, she had basically become the overlord of the Ice Lands.

Later, whether it is the conquest of the Kingdom of Grand or the destruction of the Kingdom of Io, Lawrence has the opportunity to obtain new high-quality beauties, but Lawrence has had a lot of things in recent years, and he has no intention of doing so.

Now that the Star Covenant has not yet been stabilized, and the problem of the elves has not been properly resolved, it has gained the favor of some elves.

If the situation of the Star Alliance is stabilized in the future, and the problem of elves is properly solved, then the quality of the beauties around him will definitely improve.

The beauty of the normal world does not represent the strength of a country, but this world is a world with extraordinary bloodlines, and the bloodlines of transcendental people can make future generations more powerful!

Affluent living conditions also make it easier to produce beautiful women.

Lawrence no longer had any expectations for the White Sun Chamber of Commerce, nor did he see the Chamber of Commerce formed by a group of small merchants as some mysterious organization.

Soon Lawrence went to gather the emissaries of the countries to discuss the population problem, and the claim to protect the populations of the countries was quickly appreciated.

Lawrence has been the one who has been frantically expanding the population, and now Lawrence is thankful that he has allowed his country not to let its people run elsewhere.

Monasteries are set up only in the land of ice, and in various countries there are churches responsible for proselytizing and selecting talents.

The reason why the priest of the church can brew beer and make bread with different flavors is because this group of people has money and time, and it is difficult for ordinary people to eat, and they certainly do not have unique brewing techniques.

Churches around the country will also receive donations from the local area, and the local people will help build them.

This kind of thing is very normal in this day and age, and Lawrence naturally has no reason to refuse.

Letters went back and forth, and by the time this matter was decided, it was already the time of the autumn harvest.

In order to gain the approval of the people, Lawrence worked hard during the autumn harvest, and diligently harvested the wheat in front of the public, and one person did the work of more than 100 people a day, and worked for nine consecutive days, until all the nearby land was harvested.

The joy of the harvest soon spread throughout the icy land.

Because of the joy of the harvest, the adults became extra tolerant, and the children also felt the joy and kindness of their parents after a little hard work.

The people quickly pushed the carts, and after handing in the food for the Prophet, they rushed home with the borrowed carts, calling the women and children to load the food and sell it in the harbour market for pots and pans, sewing cloth, and precious oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar.

The most important thing is alcohol, and it is not only the barbarians who like to drink, but most of the men outside like to drink, especially those who are engaged in heavy physical labor.

Wild fruit was everywhere during the season, and the benevolent Lawrence allowed the slaves to pick the ripe fruit without destroying the trees, and also allowed some of the families of eligible soldiers to sell the fruit to the market, so that many small children could also buy cheap fruit.

Under the sun, there are also some shady businesses, such as the traditional hook bar business.

This kind of business is usually not good, because there is no shortage of women in the icy lands, and men here are easy to find a partner, whereas in local teaching, only men and women who are blessed by the prophet and the church will give birth to healthy children.

It is easy for young teenagers to get married, especially those with soldiers and craftsmen in their families, and it is usually only this part of the population that has spare money to enjoy.

The serfs who farmed the land generally did not have any extra money, and some of them were only in the hands of the man who was the head of the family, and these people had to feed the family, buy wine and clothes, or donate them to the church, and were reluctant to give them to strange women.

Cathedral of the town of Phumetheus.

Lawrence rarely went to the monastery anymore, and spent most of his time in the church with the teenagers, teaching them the latest technology.

The techniques of the steam engine and clockwork were shared with the craftsmen of Ironforge, as well as to the foreign student aristocracy of the military academy and several churches and monasteries.

In addition to encouraging technology, Lawrence has always focused on nurturing the younger generation, and has a good relationship with the children of the past and the teenagers of today.

After class, Lawrence was about to leave the classroom when he was greeted by the young man in his seat.

"Prophet!" A young man in his twenties raised his hand and asked excitedly and respectfully, "Prophet! When are we going to conquer the Elven Forest? The wheat harvest is now finished, and it's almost winter! ”

Lawrence looked at the Vakiri immigrant, a man of pure blood who was a descendant of the Oraua family.

While having great strength and a sense of battle, he also has a strong desire for war.

Lawrence said calmly: "Koda, it's okay if the elves are willing to continue in the forest, now what I want to do is to let the God-given land grow, not let those elves disappear." ”

Korda was puzzled, "Isn't it good to let them disappear?" If you kill some elves, the rest will be obedient. ”

Lawrence shook his head, "God has let us live here, not so that we can kill with other races, but to prove to all nations and races that we are the best here." ”

"After conquering the Elven Forest, do you want me to leave here and go there to be the Elven King?"

Korda was watched by Lawrence and quickly cringed, "That's definitely not going to work...... You should be here. ”

"That's it." Lawrence said to the rest, "The elves have no food, no heating, no good wine, and no food and drink, and that's what God tortures them. ”

"It's like making a person never enjoy a delicious meal, always eating a crust of bread, watching people not far away eat meat and drink wine, which proves our strength more than killing them."

Korda and the rest were convinced!

The bread crust of this era is not the kind of soft bread crust of the civilized world, considering the backward way of baking bread in this world, and many times the bread eaten is cold and dried for half a month, most of the bread crusts at this time are charred and moldy, which belongs to the things that most people do not eat.

This year's grain harvest will be bumper, and winemaking and cooking techniques will also develop.

And Lawrence blocked the food sales channel to the elves, and all countries tacitly obeyed this rule because of Lawrence's concessions.

The Elven Forest is rich in fruits, but for the elves, eating meat and bread is the life they want. (End of chapter)
