Chapter 6: Miss Nana

The early morning sun brought warmth through the screen windows, and on the first day of work, Menes was still used to lying in bed, according to the Kemert habit.

Menes stretched and was just about to get up when she saw Nana bring breakfast with her servant, milk, fried eggs, bread and fruit.

Who taught the people of the rotten country the habit of eating breakfast in bed?

"Dear Mistress Menes, your breakfast is ready, do you still eat it in bed?" asked Nana.

It seems that the habit of breakfast in bed needs to be changed.

"Oh, no, put it on the table, and call me Menes, I don't deserve respect. Menes said casually.

The servants looked at Menes in amazement.

"What? Am I ugly?" Menis asked.

In this strict society, such arbitrary calls are punishable.

The servants hurriedly bowed their heads and said timidly, "Yes, honorable Lord Menes!"

Menes smiled at Nana, "Then start with you, and call me Menes in the future!"

"Okay, respect...... Oh, Mistress Menes!" Nana wasn't used to it.

The servant quickly put breakfast on the table and bowed out.

"Thank you!" Menes said casually.

The servants were so frightened that their plates fell to the ground, and immediately lay down and said, "Dear Lord Menes, I beg your pardon!"

This time it was Menes' turn to open her mouth wide in fright, wasn't it just a casual thank you?

Menes couldn't explain it, it was just a habit, so she waved her hand and said, "Go down, it's okay!

The servants thanked them for their kindness, knelt on the ground to collect the plates, and pushed the door out on their knees.

Nana looked at Menes with a strange look, and in Nana's eyes, Menes was so strange now that she actually said thank you to the servant?

Menes looked at Nana and said, "Excuse me, please ask where I can wash my face?"

Nana: "Huh?" looked at Menis and said, "Now?"

Menes spread her hands, and my habit was to wash up first before breakfast.

Nana hurried down, and after a while came in with a basin of water, Menes washed her face, and asked for a glass of water to rinse her mouth, and there was no toothbrush or toothpaste.

Nana stood by and waited on the eccentric Menes.

"Sit down, don't stand, tired!" Menis picked up the bread and took a bite.

Nana sat down timidly, her restrained hand didn't know where to put it, Nana missed the irascible Menes a little bit in the past, and now it was polite and strange.

"Don't be nervous, come and have breakfast with me!"

"No, respect...... Mistress Menis!" Nana was nervously speechless, how could the servant have breakfast with his master?

"Hahaha......" Menis let out a hearty laugh.

"I know you may find it a little weird, it's okay that you'll find me even weirder in the future, probably Anubis changed my brain, but it looks like I'm still Menes, and you're still my little sweetheart. ”

Menes blushed as soon as she said this.

"There are a lot of habits that we have to change later, take your time, first remember to wake me up early in the future, and secondly I want you to have breakfast with me. ”

"Oh, by the way, where's my glutinous rice ball?" Menes remembered the cat, who hadn't seen since she entered the house.

"Tangyuan?" Nana didn't react.

"Oh, it's my cat, I'm giving it a new name. Menes explained.

"Your holy cat is enjoying its breakfast in the temple. ”

"Oh, then it needs to have breakfast with me later. Menes said.

"Yes, but it's not etiquette for me to have breakfast with you. Nana was still a little reserved.

"I insist on this, understand?" Menes said, pointing at Nana, a little bit of a domineering president.

"Nana understands!"

"Well, don't stress my little sweetie, drink some milk. Menes handed her milk to Nana.

Nana held it carefully with both hands and didn't dare to drink.

"Actually, you know I've died once, this brain is a little ......," Menes said, gesturing to his head.

"So I need someone to tell me about the current situation, and of course the previous situation, Jett only has politics in his head, politics!"

"Oh, what do you want to know, sir!"

"Everything, all the people, all the things, everything you know, start with our house!" Menis swallowed the egg and took a sip of the milk from Nana's hand.

Nana is not truly a Kemert, her home is in the far north, and as such she has golden, sunny hair and eyes as blue as the sea of encircling hers.

Nana was robbed by pirates at a very young age and sold to the Menes family, because she was beautiful and lovely, she was deeply favored by Menes's mother, and she stayed with her and gave it to Menes when she grew up.

Nana has received a good education since she was a child, and has been learning knowledge with Menes and Ipiya, and she is considered a talented girl in the local area, and her family has always regarded her as a family member, of course, this is a limited favor, and her real identity is still a slave, but this does not prevent Nana from understanding the world, in fact, because of this identity, Nana has a better understanding of the living conditions of ordinary people.

The world is still backward and poor, and the majority of the people are still living in difficulty, often in a state of semi-hunger, busy and unable to eat and wear.

But Kemmert remains one of the world's centers of civilization.

Nana is considered to have a high status among the servants, second only to the housekeeper in the family, but she can still only drink well water and nibble bread for breakfast.

Most people don't eat meat more than a few times a year, and having fish from the Nune on the table every day is a luxurious meal, and more often than not, just bread, ale, and vegetables.

Therefore, first of all, we need to solve the problem of food and clothing, and only when we are full can we work, and if we want to be full, we must farm and improve productivity, so that we can have a good life.

The Kemert people have done a good job of farming, after all, with the blessing of the Nunn River, the land is very fertile, but there is too little farmland.

After breakfast, Menes took Nana to inspect her territory.

The state of Bastit is not large, about 50 kilometers from south to north, and 100 kilometers wide from east to west, but most of it is desert.

The only land that could be cultivated was a narrow strip of land along the Nunn River, and at its widest point it was only about ten kilometers, and it was still an uncultivable swamp.

This swamp is not far from the Holy Cat City, and it is about ten kilometers south after leaving the city gate, and it will not be long before you can run fast in a horse-drawn carriage.

The biggest obstacle to the development of Kemmert's agriculture is the lack of water, with the exception of narrow areas that can be inundated by floods, the terrain in other areas is relatively high, which cannot be effectively irrigated.

The marshes were very good agricultural land, but the premise was that the swamps were drained and reservoirs and irrigation channels were established, and the largest drainage and irrigation project of the Kemerts was in the northern Fayon region, so it was the granary of the kingdom.

The swamp in Shengmao Prefecture is much smaller, with a total area of less than 30 square kilometers, but if the water conservancy and irrigation system can be built, at least 2,000-2,500 hectares of land can be added, which translates to 7,000-9,000 aru in the local area.

These cultivated land can support 5-6,000 people in the Kemert Kingdom, which is not big, but the population of the entire Holy Cat State is less than 50,000, and if you can increase the arable land and population by ten percent, it is still considerable.

In recent years, the Holy Cat State has not developed this place, the main reason is that the Holy Cat State is in the border area, and it is not peaceful all the year round, and there have been drainage and irrigation projects before, but a conflict with Noa was destroyed in one fell swoop, so there must be a peaceful environment for economic development.
