Mountain and Forest Kingdom
Chapter 292 Dumu Port
After placing a curse on the thief, Laurence headed to Dumport with a group of guards.
Lawrence looked at the quiet sea, full of worries about the sailors.
"In the past few days, a simple lighthouse will be built here. It is only five meters high. It is mainly used to guide ships to the shore."
After hearing this, Salil said helplessly: "Lawrence, you just like to do more things like this. You have to wait until winter when the fog starts, and it's still early for winter now."
Lawrence explained: "This is called foolproof. You only think about the foggy sky, but not the black sky."
"The ships basically don't move at night, and someone has to control the direction all the time, just to prevent the ships from moving away from the shore."
"If we have a lighthouse to guide us, those people can see this place even at night and know to approach this way."
Delen rarely interrupted, and asked at this time: "What if the Valkyrie sees it?"
Lawrence suddenly thought that the Valkyries also had to go out to make money, especially now.
"Probably not, the Valkyries..." Lawrence thought about this possibility and quickly said: "If they come, kill them!"
Delen chuckled and said, "Just because of the water people here?"
Water people refer to the people of the Water City. These more than a hundred people were chased all over the ground by more than a dozen Pumixiu people. They were no match for the Valkyries.
Lawrence affirmed: "Don't underestimate the wary humans. Besides, we are not the only people from the Water City here."
"Build the lighthouse first, then mobilize the militia."
Lawrence quickly decided to strengthen the defense here, "Ask Ai Ali to give a task in the tavern and recruit a few southerners to help us fight! The reward is to eat bread and ale every day, and you can take away thirty pounds of wheat in half a month!" "
"Tell Brick to bring the two dogs!"
Delen said: "Many of my people have never seen the sea, and they are willing to come and live here for a while."
Lawrence said directly: "Okay, we need soldiers here."
Salil asked: "There is nothing to do here. Just let Seravan or someone else do it later. We will go back to the church to decorate the room."
Lawrence's original plan was to live in the town of Pumexiu, but the plan could not keep up with the change.
"We will stay here first and then go back after the fleet comes back."
Sally suddenly looked bitter, "How long will it take... It's very difficult to live here on the seaside. It's extremely damp and uncomfortable to live there."
Sea view villas are indeed not a good place in this era, at least neither seaside nor mountain people like them.
"Talk less, do more, and remember the hardships and sweet things in advance this year!"
Lawrence scolded Saryl.
Salil muttered: "How many times have I thought about the bitter and sweetened the sweet this year? I have suffered a lot."
"That's sweeter than before!" Lawrence lectured: "You are not yet twenty years old, and you just want to lie down and enjoy yourself all day long. When Delen was twenty years old, you slept on the floor of the small room every day!"
Delen said unhappily: "Don't talk about me, or I won't give you face!"
Lawrence suddenly realized that Salil was better. Salil rarely threatened people with violence. Even if she kept chattering all day long, she would still do whatever she was asked to do.
"We are struggling now, moving towards the light step by step. If we want our future life to get better and better, sometimes we have to pay more."
"It's like farming. If you want to harvest more, you have to work harder."
"The same goes for hunting. The prey will not fall directly to the ground. It requires luck, but it also requires us to be more diligent and make weapons and armor baits."
Sofia nodded and said: "The master is right! It is the master who brought us to the paradise. We cannot stop listening to the master just because we are in the paradise."
Salil muttered: "You didn't listen...Oh, I can't take a shower today."
Delen asked curiously: "Can't you take a bath in the sea?"
Lawrence explained: "No, the sea water is not clean. After coming out of the sea, your body will be contaminated with a lot of sea water. If you don't clean it up in time, your body will be contaminated with dirty things from the sea, such as salt and sand."
Delen nodded, knowing this for the first time.
Dumu Harbor is not as bad as Salil imagined. It has been under construction for more than a year, and various wooden houses and stone houses are slowly being built.
The original location of Dumu Village was not close to the seaside, but on a protruding terrain.
In addition to a few newly built long boats, there are also two fishing boats parked on the beach.
It was getting late, and Lawrence quickly moved into a big house in Dumu Harbor to rest.
The diners were brought back from the church by the shieldmaidens on Dom sheep, and the goods that had just been unloaded from the church were loaded onto the cart again.
Soon it was evening.
Lawrence looked at Salil who was busy in the wooden house and the maids responsible for cleaning the house and moving things, and felt that he was really a hindrance in the house.
"Sophia, Derren, let's go for a walk."
"good."
"Yes, Master!" Sophia's voice was always the sweetest.
Lawrence walked on the seaside wearing a thick bearskin coat and a copper crown representing the prophet's identity.
The beach was a bit cold in the evening, and Lawrence thought it would be quiet here. After all, most people didn't like to be close to the sea.
But at this time there were more than ten people busy at the beach.
Lawrence came here often and recognized these people as being from the Water City.
People from Water City come to the seaside from Dumu Village every day and pick up various kinds of food.
If there is not enough food on the beach, these people will drive a small boat with five people and search for food on the seabed two to three hundred meters away from the beach.
Both men and women are good at diving and fishing for shrimps and crabs from the bottom of the sea.
Lawrence looked at the people on the beach and walked over to say hello.
When people on the beach saw Lawrence approaching, they knelt on the beach in advance.
One after another, soon they were all kneeling on the ground.
"prophet!"
Lawrence stopped two meters away from these people and asked: "Are you busy with dinner? Who is the leader here?"
A man said, "Prophet, I am Rao, the captain here."
Lawrence looked at this man who looked to be forty years old, "Rao, what are the people in your team doing now?"
The team is a team of more than 100 people, with a team leader and a team leader below.
Rao explained carefully: "Two groups are catching fish in the sea, and the rest, except those who cook and raise children, are drying salt."
Lawrence nodded.
There's no shortage of food here, and it's easy to get enough to eat.
Therefore, more people still dry sea salt nearby. In autumn, when the wind is strong, these people dig pools that can store sea water in wider and flat places in the distance, and use the sea breeze and strong light to dry the salt.
There is currently only one acre of salt farm, and Lawrence still eats boiled salt, and it is refined salt that has been processed many times.
The population is still too small now. If the population is prosperous and enough people help build salt farms, selling salt will also be a large income.
At this time, several people appeared on the beach, and everyone threw the crabs they were holding into the boat.
These people saw people on the beach, as well as Lawrence, Sophia and others.
Lawrence also saw these people and found that there were men and women.
"You guys keep busy and let the people in the sea go back to rest. The sea water here is relatively cold. After winter, don't go to the sea to catch crabs. Just go and help build houses."
Rao said gratefully: "Yes, Prophet, thank you for your mercy!"
Lawrence soon left here to help build the lighthouse.
The lighthouse consists of a ten-meter-high piece of wood, on which lighting beads are placed, and three pieces of wood are tilted around to fix the piece of wood.
The abundant wood resources are one of the few advantages here, especially the wood that is more than ten meters high, which saves a lot of trivial matters.
Apart from being difficult to transport, everything else is an advantage.
Lawrence took the lighting beads he had brought down from the mountain out of the box.
Under the stimulation of the weak moonlight, the fist-sized lighting beads emitted a white light that was more dazzling than a light bulb.
Many people turned their heads away from looking at this thing. Lawrence quickly stepped on the ladder and placed the beads in the groove at the top of the wood.
Sofia stood looking at the bright lamp from a distance, "Master, will this be stolen?"
Lawrence looked at the radiant lamp beads and thought it was very possible.
The brain of a barbarian is capable of doing such a thing.
"Put a dog here and arrange two people to guard it. We will build a high tower in a few days."
