Mountain and Forest Kingdom

In the morning, Lawrence took Beow and Seravan to build a new beehive.

The original beehives can still be used, but the new beehives were coated with honey and placed in another mountain forest.

Lawrence said to Beoff and Seravan:

"Bees are afraid of noisy places. Where we live there are often the sounds of logging and mining, so we need to find a quiet place near flower fields to keep bees."

"You don't need to deal with bees, as long as you know that we have placed beehives here, come here often for inspections. If you encounter wild beasts or people who steal honey, you must teach them a lesson!"

Beow has been on the mountain for more than ten days. There is food and drink on the mountain. Except for doing more work, everything else is better than at home.

I go home one day every seven days. It takes three hours to get from the manor to the town. If I take a shortcut, it will only take one hour.

At first, she was herding sheep in the manor, and she was herding sheep with the children of Mandekru. Because of the acquaintances, she quickly adapted to this place.

Then it was time to work with the women on the fields and vegetables, then work with the men on chopping wood and cutting branches.

Until today, I followed Lawrence to patrol the territory.

Lawrence himself was not good at raising these barbarian children, and he did not want him to really turn into an honest child and farm his whole life.

"Beow, you are too weak and your fighting ability is too weak. Go hunting with Reglo first. She will teach you how to become a strong and brave man."

After Seravan heard this, he asked, "Master, is this a little too early for him?"

Beow, who was still a child, followed the two and listened curiously, not understanding what was being said.

Lawrence said: "It's getting late. Now is the time for his character to be finalized. Reglo will use the Valkyrie method to let him understand how to become a man."

"Beoff." Lawrence looked at Beoff.

Beow had already learned the rules here and responded: "Yes, Master."

Lawrence said: "Go and learn various things from Reglo. When you can defeat her, you will be stronger than all your friends at the foot of the mountain."

Beow didn't know how strong Reglo was, but he only knew that Reglo was not good-looking.

"Yes, Master." Beow agreed, just for the sake of agreeing, without thinking too much.

Lawrence didn't mind either, since Reguero would take good care of the child.

There are new residents arranged in Andrew's wooden house, and someone always needs to be here to give an early warning to buy reaction time for the people on the mountain.

Wheat seedlings have sprouted on the land here, and the women in the manor are busy in the fields.

Compared with the land on the mountains, the land here is easier to cultivate, and the original land can be expanded to about 20 acres.

But that's the limit. Although it is more difficult to open up forests on mountains, more connected land can be reclaimed.

A farmland area of ​​more than 200 acres near the river is enough to supply the consumption of more than 100 people.

After arranging Seraven and Beow, Lawrence, Sariel and Delenn took the team and set off.

A team of fifteen people moved along the road, with the iron tools picked up from Doug's house loaded in the car.

Others were borrowed from the blacksmith.

This year we will definitely face off against that Baron Avari, so collecting taxes in advance will help unite the Pumixiu people.

If you give something to Lawrence, Avari won't receive it.

Barbarians are not fools. They don't think that if they can't pay taxes, they just have to wait and tell the truth to get forgiveness from the other party.

Since he can’t pay taxes to Avari, he must work with Lawrence to do Avari!

Because there was no concept of a country during this period, the Pumixiu people did not think that they were one with the Wakili people at all, let alone that it was treason to resist the Wakili people.

What they were afraid of was only the strength of the Valkyries, and Doug and others died following the Valkyries. Now the Pumixiu people immediately chose to fight Lawrence against the Valkyries.

Anyway, the worst case scenario is to go to the mountains and become a savage, so just pay Lawrence the protection fee in advance.

Some Pumixiu people also needed food, so they followed the convoy with some iron tools and went to the Snow Cave people to exchange supplies.

Lawrence's team soon arrived at the village of Dumu. Mandekru and Brick quickly came out of the village and greeted Lawrence with the rest of the people who came out.

"Where are the Snow Cave people?" Lawrence looked around and soon saw several strange-looking men with big faces and obvious tumors on their faces.

Several snow cave men looked here nervously, trying to show humble and harmless smiles.

Mandekru said on their behalf: "There are five Snow Cave Men here. The Snow Cave Men killed whales at the beach yesterday. There are ten whales two people long lying on the beach. Now we have just packed the meat of three of them."

Lawrence was riding on the Dom Sheep, looking curiously at these snow cave people who seemed to have little military value.

"It's so easy for you to get food? You can easily hunt ten whales."

The people in the Snow Cave didn't dare to answer, they all lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at Lawrence.

Mandekru said with a smile: "It's very simple to hunt whales. I watched them rowing a small boat to drive the whales in the sea to the beach. It's very simple."

"I can beat three of them with one hand!" Mandekru clenched his last remaining fist and showed off his power in front of the Snow Cave people.

Lawrence looked at the male Snow Cave people and found that these people were as timid and meek as others had always said.

"They're just not good at fighting with people." Lawrence said gently: "Hunting bears, whales and seals, they do a good job."

Lawrence looked at the snow cave people and said, "Come to the beach with me and take a look. I will take away the fish and meat here and the useful things you bring out. I will also give you tools and ropes based on what you provide."

Brick took the initiative and said, "Thank you, kind master."

Lawrence soon led the team to the beach.

The water on the beach was blood red, and the dead whales and the snow cavemen cutting meat near the whales proved that this place should now be a slaughterhouse.

Each whale was two or three meters long. They were not considered large whales, and Lawrence couldn't tell what kind of whale they were.

Whaling is the craft of the Wakili and one of the things these snow cave people are good at.

There were not many men among the Snow Cave people, plus some children and women. They did not have the courage to launch an invasion like the Pumi Xiu people.

In an icy and snowy environment, wounds are bound to occur when fighting humans, but when hunting seals, whales, and snow bears, injuries are not guaranteed.

In the eyes of the Snow Cave people, outsiders are more powerful than bears.

Lawrence quickly asked people to help break down the whale meat and skin. Although the fish meat was very unpalatable, the Pumixiu people were very short of food now, so some would be good to eat.

Whale meat and the thick skin and fat of whales are both good ingredients.

Lawrence lost interest after watching for a while, and walked to the distance to ask Brick about the situation here.

"There are not more than 200 people in Snow Cave, why are there more than 20 here."

Brick replied with evasive eyes: "Everyone else has gone to the other side of the sea. I just finished moving."

Lawrence thought for a moment and understood that these snow cave people were afraid of being killed.

The savages' habit of killing people has long been known to the snow cave people, and these snow cave people are very afraid of the savages.

The views of the Snow Cave people were actually not wrong at all. Both the Valkyries and the Pumixiu actually killed a lot of people.

The barbarians other than Lawrence would never be lenient towards these snow cave people.

The transaction went very smoothly. Without any means of preservation, everyone packed the whale meat and quickly went home to cook.

Before leaving, Brick said: "Master, the Snow Cave Man can dedicate to you ten dogs this year, three two-year-olds, five one-year-olds, and two just one month old."

Lawrence looked at the snow caveman holding his dog in the distance, "I don't need so many dogs. These dogs eat more than people. The ones at home are enough. The rest will wait until next year."

Brick said carefully: "Our previous deal... was to provide dogs every year."

Now the Snow Cave people have cooperated with Lawrence. Whether it is the trade of meat and iron tools, or the trade of men and women, only the trade of dogs remains.

Lawrence didn’t want to talk nonsense, “Then just get one, a puppy.”

"Yes, Master." Brick quickly went back to talk to his tribe.

After a few minutes, Brick brought back two dogs.

Both dogs were struggling hard, trying to call their mother.

One is snow-white and stronger, while the other has brown and white hair and looks quieter.

Lawrence felt that the smaller dog would not live long, so he pointed at the puppy and said, "This is the one."

Brick felt that the dog would not live long, but he was not good at talking, so he handed the puppy to Lawrence.

After the Snow Cave people completed the transaction, they rowed away and took a large amount of goods they thought were good things. They left Dumu Village and went to the Iceberg Continent, which no normal person would go.

On the way back, Lawrence handed the puppy he was holding to Salil, the expert dog breeder.

"Saryl, this dog is for you."

Salil looked at the puppy curiously, and then said to Lawrence, "I'm very busy and don't have time to take care of the puppy."

"It's okay, just raise it as you like." Lawrence handed it to Salil directly.

Salil quickly hugged the puppy and said reluctantly: "Okay, do you want to give it a name?"

Lawrence said: "Get up, Doug is my friend. To commemorate Doug, this dog's name is Doug!"

Lawrence gave the puppy, who thought he had a short life, a very meaningful name.
