North Water City.

Although they have been in the academy for nearly two years, there are not many people in Beishui City, and most of the time, they come here to buy materials or something.

Although the academy can also buy some materials for the general public, more often, the materials in Beishui City are more abundant, and some rare materials can be found.

Some materials are used in small quantities, and they are piled up in the warehouse to eat ashes, and it is not easy to buy them in time.

Jia Yi didn't take Xiaoqing and his pet bird with him this time, because this way is more waterways, it is not convenient for Xiaoqing to take it with him, and he can't get on the airship, as for his arrow hidden hummingbird, now they are all free-range, and they can only be seen occasionally.

They first went to the construction site of Beishui City.

About 3 miles (5km) east of Beishui City, there is a large forest, in fact, the entire Taberina Lake is surrounded by a forest, but Beishuicheng is a little sparse, the closer to the academy forest, the denser it is, and the further north of the academy is the Beidi forest, and then north it is connected to the bitter moss ice field.

When they arrived, there was no forest in the area, only rows of felled trees piled on the side, and some large pits and stumps could be seen on the ground.

On one side of the leveled land, there is a building rising from the ground, but the construction site is in a mess, and the shape is still not visible.

This is the rice field planned by the college, which is already starting to be cut and cultivated, and it will be completed soon, and then composted, dried and dried, and by the beginning of spring next year, it will be ready to plant elf rice.

This row of buildings under construction is a dormitory for workers, and it will be closed at that time, and it will not be allowed to enter and exit at will.

After looking at the group for a while, the group turned around on their skateboards, and a little farther away, next to a small hillside, they saw the destination of the group, the new paper mill of March.

Although the paper mill relies on the wood produced by logging, it cannot always rely on that side, the development of rice fields is not endless, and the college also has some trade-offs, and the paper mill also plans a large area of forests for them in order to be "sustainable".

On the paper mill side, while buying timber from the rice paddies, they also cut down their own forests and replanted them, creating a cycle. Otherwise, there are druids in this world, and if they come out to protest, not only will production be affected, but the safety of personnel will also be a big deal.

Druids are not all sane, sometimes they look at nature much more heavily than humans, and regard humans as pests, although there are quite a few humans among the druids.

And they work all year round, which is much more powerful than 996.

Of course, the rational ones still account for the majority, after all, human beings are powerful, and if they want to develop, they will inevitably have some encroachment on nature.

In fact, it would be closer if they came directly from Beishui City to the new paper mill, but they wanted to see the rice fields opened up by the college, so they turned a corner and turned around from there.

But I can't see anything, after all, the rice fields are all like that, just look at the past, that large rice field stretches out one piece, and there seems to be no end in sight.

As soon as they entered the border of the paper mill, they saw that a fence had been fenced around the perimeter, and there were several strong men with pestles at the gate of the fence.

In this way, it seems that the rice field is more open, but Jia Yi knows that there will be a magic array deployment behind the rice field, although the specifications are not high, but the protection ability is much stronger than this circle of fences.

As soon as they entered, they saw a middle-aged man walking out, looking in his 40s, with a white face and beard, but he looked much younger.

"Delis. March stepped forward and beckoned to the other, "Where's Ryder?"

Delisi made a noble salute to Jiayi, Jia Yi didn't pay attention, but it seems that the usual etiquette is not very different, but he has not studied the aristocratic etiquette, he is already a formal mage, and it is enough to perform the mage ceremony.

Just as a Taoist priest only needs to make a cross, a monk only needs to make a cross.

However, Jia Yi was a little surprised to observe that the other party was a mage apprentice, but a mage apprentice of this age was almost able to break through to the limit of the gray-robed mage, and he had exhausted his potential.

Yang Xi, who was only on the side, squinted his eyes slightly, and looked at March with some playfulness.

Delis said: "Ryder is not here, he went to contact the rest of the chambers of commerce, after our blank paper is made, we still need to cooperate with several chambers of commerce, our own sales are too slow, except for the Suthern Kingdom, we all need to cooperate with other chambers of commerce." ”

March didn't want to care about these things anymore, but said: "You can solve these things by yourself, remember to do a good job of accounting, don't have problems, and maintain the relationship between the academy, no one in Beishui City dares to trouble the academy." ”

With a few words of advice, March took Jiayi and them into the paper mill.

The place here is more than ten times larger than the college's paper mill, and the planning seems more reasonable, but the equipment is not much new, just a little more. According to Delis, they are going to level the hill next to it and make a slope to dry the raw materials.

This paper mill will only produce ordinary grade and below paper, which is used in large quantities, while premium paper and premium grade paper will only be produced in the old paper mill.

Saying that, Delis said with some complaints: "The location of this paper mill is a bit too remote, it should be next to the Isuvi River, so it will be much easier to transport." ”

"That can't be. Jia Yi immediately shook his head, "That will pollute the water source, the pollution of the Isuvi River will affect the water safety of North Water City, if you are not afraid of being hung up by the irascible mage and immersed in the water, you can try it." ”

As he spoke, Jia Yi stared at Delis's eyes: "And the pollution here must be controlled, there must be no sloppiness, but I heard that there are druids living in the Northland Forest, if you provoke them, the academy doesn't matter, and your own safety will be difficult to guarantee." ”

"Vengeance druid?"

Kaichi was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the other party still knew about revenge druids.

However, he shook his head: "I don't know, few people have seen it, I heard that there are professors in the academy who know, even if it is not to revenge the druid, it will not be polite to see you polluting the water source." And I've heard that maybe the elves will come over, so you all have to keep a low profile, especially when you're cutting down trees. ”

Jia Yi himself didn't know the news, but he just heard his teacher mention it, it seems that the matter of the college's elf rice has been spread to the elf clan, so someone from the elves wants to come over and take a look.

The academy has not made a big deal of publicity about the elven rice, but it is true that some elven rice has entered the market to test feedback, and it has already cooperated with several large business talks, although the public is not very clear, but for senior mages, it is no secret that the academy has elven rice.

Jia Yi originally wanted the academy to put two advertisements in the newspaper, but he didn't expect the academy to refuse without even thinking about it, and now the production capacity of elf rice is seriously insufficient, so he is only worried about not buying and selling, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to sell it.

"Elf?" said Delis, opening his mouth in surprise.

For him, the elves are really a legendary species, not only beautiful and elegant, but also very strong and united, and most importantly, the elves are widely known for their love of nature, and he is a little afraid that his paper mill will be smashed by meteorites falling from the sky.

Marche lightly hammered Jia and comforted Delis: "You don't have to be afraid, the elves also have to be reasonable, and they won't do anything excessive in the academy, you just need to do it according to the standards I gave you, and the academy will protect your safety." ... As long as you don't make a mistake. ”

Hearing March's words, he was a little relieved, but he was still a little apprehensive, he used to dislike the remoteness of this place, and the sewage treatment cost a lot of money, now, he just wanted to hide in a more remote place, so that the elves could not notice.

And you have to go through the sewage system again, so that you don't mess with the elves.

Originally, he ignored the sewage treatment module.
