These days, Lawrence has been taking care of things at Ferry Harbor.

The matter of the Sea Clan has not yet happened, and the matter of the Elf Clan has not broken out, and now the main concern is to improve the quality of life.

For example, the appropriate amount of salary for soldiers is more important than the affairs of the Sea Clan and the Elven Clan, and it is also more urgent than the issue of the fire dragon and the church outside.

Over the years of fighting the Transcendental, Lawrence knows all too well how important this is.

Wages are not set arbitrarily or taken into account, and Lawrence has always observed and understood the standard of living that can be comfortably lived in most walks of life.

More often than not, we rely on feedback to understand the problem.

Lawrence knew that it was difficult for him to hear the truth in the tavern, and that his knowledge of this huge country came mainly from the reports of those around him, especially those he trusted.

Harbour Abbey, where Lawrence came to listen to the nuns for the second time this month.

Not only Boole and some of the nuns who were in charge, but Lawrence also listened to the voices of the schoolgirls and noblewomen who studied here.

It took a lot of time and a good mood to listen to the nonsense reports of these menopausal women, most of which were emotional praises and angry grievances and complaints, complaining about the injustice of some people.

Lawrence would often deal with all kinds of injustices, but sometimes he was also indifferent and didn't care about anything.

The good mood of the day was consumed for most of the day, and Lawrence was tempted to make this kind of thing a semi-annual thing, and he knew that it would not work.

At least not yet.

Seeing that the prophet had finished his condolences, Hela came over and said respectfully, "Prophet, afternoon tea is ready. ”

"No, I'll walk around as I please."

Lawrence is not hungry, he usually eats a lot because of the amount of exercise, and he deliberately gained weight for a while, but now he does not exercise much, and he also intends to maintain his figure, so he eats very regularly.

Hela quickly followed, saying, "I'll walk with you." ”

"No, you don't." Lawrence just wanted to walk around on his own, "You go and get busy, I'll leave myself when I leave, and it's almost time for you to go back to Flying Fish Harbor." ”

Hela also knew that she had been escorting the slave girl over for too long, "Yes, Prophet. ”

Lawrence reassured, "Let's talk before we go, in Oak City." ”

Hela understood what Lawrence meant, and received blessings several times a year in the comfort of her room in the castle.

"Yes, great master." Hela smiled in response.

Lawrence quickly walked out, and after leaving the house, he felt a little lighter and in a better mood.

In the afternoons the nuns were busy, some studying, some cleaning and washing clothes in their rooms.

These women were not responsible for farming, fresh vegetables and grain were delivered every other week, and the noblewomen could send people out to buy fresh food.

Lawrence didn't want to meet the nuns, so he walked towards the middle of nowhere, and soon came to the corner area where Lana was.

This is the area on the outskirts of the monastery, which is a complex of buildings surrounded by many buildings, and when it was built, some dirty things were deliberately concentrated in a certain area on the periphery.

Areas similar to livestock sheds, toilets, tools, farm tool warehouses, vegetable fields, etc.

The history of the monastery is not recent, the monastery was built a few years ago, and there were no breakthrough ideas at that time.

At that time, I thought that the monastery needed to farm its own land, and it needed a vegetable field and other production areas in the monastery, but I didn't expect that in a year or two, it would develop into an extraordinary facility that depended on the outside world for food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Even many aristocratic estates need vegetable farmland, including many vegetable fields next to Oak Castle.

The monastery had set aside a vegetable patch, which could not have been at the entrance point, and was soon abandoned because no one wanted to work in the monastery.

Lawrence came here and overgrown the barren dirt with weeds, forming a yard-like area.

The spring sun here is just right, and the sun is warm and comfortable, but it emits a stench from the dog house not far away.

A young nun was sleeping lazily against the wooden house at the door of the dog house with a broom in her arms, leaning her head back and holding a simple broom made of branches and wood, and sleeping soundly with her mouth open.

Lawrence was a little relieved, at least the Sea Clan toddler was indeed as the nuns said, but he was unusually noisy in the evening, and did not attack or hurt the people around him.

"Wow!" A shrill cry came from the dim and gloomy dog house, which soon woke up the sleeping little nun.

Lana quickly sat up, reached out and wiped her mouth, and after sitting up, she said, "Don't cry, don't cry, I haven't finished my work yet, I can eat when I'm done." ”

Lana, who gradually woke up, quickly saw the Prophet, quickly dropped the broom nervously, and then quickly picked it up and bowed.

"Prophet!"

Lawrence smiled: "You don't need to salute when you work, I'll come to see you and that kid, I let you live here yesterday, haven't you cleaned it today?" ”

Lana also forgot about what she was sleeping on, thinking Lawrence didn't know about it.

"I'm cleaning, I've cleaned all the shit inside, and I'm still cleaning."

Lawrence said helplessly: "This place is for you and your children to live, clean it early, and you can get a good night's sleep early." ”

Lana didn't realize her problem and continued to defend herself.

"I slept well yesterday, but the child was too noisy, I fed a lot of milk with a spoon, and I drank it all before I went to sleep."

Lawrence walked to the door of the dog house and stood in the doorway and looked into the pitch black room.

You can't feel the coldness of the place in the sunny place outside, and you can't see the scene in this dark place.

As I got closer, I could see the layout of the room, and the light could actually penetrate through the windows and the cracks in the wood during the day, and there was a fairly clean cover on the damp hay floor, where an ugly cicada monster was lying and making a screeching sound.

Lawrence watched the sea toddler quietly, and the other party may have sensed the approach of the predator, and quickly instinctively stopped calling for the protector.

There were wooden rice bowls in the house, and spare clothes hanging on the walls.

It's the time between spring and summer, and it's no problem not to heat yourself without a brazier.

It may seem dirty and smelly, but a few years ago many barbarians lived in a worse place than this one for the rest of their lives.

Living in the same house with cattle, sheep and livestock, and breathing the air of manure together, this is actually a very normal thing in this era, and it is already considered a kulak level.

"The dirt on the floor is not cleaned, and there is a lot of wet soil mixed with urine and feces, and you have to clean it up to get a good night's sleep."

Lawrence commanded, "Go find a shovel to clean up the dirt in the house, what good can you do with a broom?" It's not a clean house, so go find a barrel, get a piece of wood or a shovel, and the cracks and holes in the walls need to be repaired, or find some wood to build a wooden bed, don't always sleep on the ground. ”

Lana looked embarrassed, "Yes, Prophet. ”

Lawrence shook his head, "Don't think about being lazy, hurry up and do things now." ”

Industrious girls are not sent to work in monasteries, especially if they are descendants of their families who have followed them over the years.

As long as they were early followers, if their children were hardworking and brave and willing to give, Lawrence would arrange a place for them, whether they were slaves or warriors.

Lana's reason was laziness, unwillingness to think, and slow to react, and her arrival at the convent was already the most reasonable protection that Lawrence could give.

Without Lawrence's permission, Lana was more likely to marry and do odd jobs after losing her parents, rather than attending a seminary.

No one but Lawrence cares about her dead Kurish parents.

Lana quickly left the yard to look for tools.

Lawrence waited ten minutes and didn't see her return.

In the boring waiting, Lawrence was not idle, and went into the house to look at the ugly monster lying quietly on the grass.

The Sea Clan child's body was shriveled and covered with folds, like old bark, and like a terrifying rift where flesh could be seen.

After a long time for Lana to return, Lawrence quickly turned and walked out of the stinking kennel and away from the guarded toddler.

Lawrence looked around, and quickly walked into the farm tool warehouse not far away, and brought out a large water tank one meter high and one meter wide from it.

This type of tank is used to store water, and the water tank of this era is very prone to cracking, so if you have money, you will prepare a few more.

Lawrence moved the tank to the grass and used a broom to simply sweep the inside of the tank with dust, and then brushed the outside again.

After setting up the water tank, Lawrence went to fetch water.

As soon as she poured a bucket of water into the tank, Lana panicked over with a dustpan and shovel.

"I searched for a lot of places, and then I told the steward that you wanted this, and I found this in the kitchen!!"

Lawrence didn't ask anything else, and continued to pour water, "That kid might need a place to take a bath, I'll do this, and then you can warm up the water every afternoon, and then put the kid in to play for an hour or two." ”

"Now go clean the house, if you don't clean it, I won't give you food at night!"

Lawrence threatens the little nun.

"Yes, Prophet ......" the little nun quickly went into the house and began to clean it.

Lawrence poured most of the well water, and after thinking of something, he went to the kitchen to ask for a bucket of hot water and a handful of salt.

The water in the tank is still a little cold, but it's a little acceptable.

Lawrence quickly enters the house and takes out the Sea Clan child, who is as stiff as a dead thing.

However, soon after putting it into the water, the monster, which had been sinking for a few seconds, quickly came to life, and its curled body stretched out, like a dog, and like an otter, it swam around in the tank with its head exposed, diving into the water and spitting bubbles from time to time.

Lawrence looked at the Sea Clan children swimming happily, and the little nun in the house was still sweeping the dirty and smelly ground.

The church bell rang quickly, and the little nun quickly showed her head and said, "Prophet, it's time for dinner, and the Holy Maiden must be looking for you to eat." ”

Lawrence looked at the sky in the distance, it was already evening, and this time the Sea Clan kid didn't make a noisy noise in the evening.

"Hmm." Lawrence looked at the little nun again, "Is your house cleaned?" ”

"It can be cleaned at night!" The little nun was quick to reassure.

Lawrence insisted: "You have to clean before you eat, keep cleaning!" ”

"But......" The little nun looked embarrassed and said aggrievedly, "But I can't do it alone......"

Lawrence looked surprised, surprised not that the little nun could quibble, but that the little nun looked at him with that kind of ...... Hope to share the joys and sorrows!

She's asking me to help her clean the dog house?!! The wise prophet gets an outrageous idea that the rest of the people can't imagine!!

This is an idea that no witch, and most of her followers, would not have, and it is really an idea that you can't even think of!

Lawrence himself felt that he was thinking too much, but looking at the little nun's eyes and the way she was in a hurry to eat, and thinking that she herself was this disrespectful character to the gods and masters, he gradually realized that he was not wrong.

That's what she had.

Lawrence looked helpless, and after thinking about it, he showed a funny look.

"Okay, I'll help you, you'll pour the dirt, I'll dig it."

Lawrence didn't talk nonsense, let the little nun take care of one part of the things, and take care of the other part of the things himself, and began to turn this dog house into a house for people.

For the little nun's ideas and requests, Lawrence can satisfy them, and it's not a big deal anyway.

Although it may seem deviant to some, Lawrence is a young man and thinks it's normal to think about it.

Whoever doesn't give himself food and makes himself suffer all day long, then he doesn't care if he is the master or the master, and even instigates a group of people to turn against him and call him in the face with cold rice!

When encountering things that can't be done, seeing the boss coming, it seems to be normal for people to hope that the boss will share weal and woe, but unfortunately most bosses will not help at this time.

As long as it's not a big deal, Lawrence is usually very talkative, especially when he feels that the other party's request is reasonable and will not affect most people, and will not hurt others and himself, he is very reasonable.

The little nun was thinking about eating at first, but after Lawrence volunteered to stay and help, she still worked hard, and did not talk about eating anymore, nor did she play tricks to be lazy and delay time.

Lawrence spent half an hour sweeping the garbage out of the house, and spent more than ten minutes making a bed for the little nun to sleep on from the discarded wood and shelves in the utility room.

"Okay, let's eat, I'll give you five catties of rations every day in the future."

Lawrence, who helped the little nun finish her work, gave the sweaty little nun an excited reward.

The little nun looked at Lawrence excitedly, "Five pounds? I can't finish it...... I only eat two catties a day! ”

Lawrence patted the sawdust dirt on his hands, wiped his face with his sleeve and said, "This is an extra ration, which is considered to be your salary, and you usually have to go to the cafeteria to eat." ”

"The milk and clothes that the child needs are not counted, this child is what I decided to adopt, I will take care of its clothes and some supplies, if you can't eat enough food for you, you can save it, and when you go out one day you go out to the market to exchange it for money, so that you can buy what you want to buy."

"I'm going to have someone send you two hens tomorrow, and you have to keep these two chickens well, and the eggs they lay are going to be eaten by this child, and you can only go to the canteen to eat food."

The little nun knelt down happily, lay down on the grass with her hands on the ground, and said, "Thank you, merciful prophet! ”

Lawrence walked out helplessly, although he felt that the little nun was normal, but he also knew that this kind of nun had no promotion value in the church, she was really useless, and holding a high position would only affect everyone's morale and loyalty.

She has none of the six virtues of the church.

Soon after Lawrence left, the little nun quickly ran off to eat. (End of chapter)
