Mountain and Forest Kingdom

The seamstress came over quickly and stood a meter and a half away and bowed.

"prophet."

Lawrence suddenly thought of safety issues from this movement and distance.

There is no problem if you are casual with your own people, but it will be troublesome if you encounter a bad person who wants to assassinate you.

With the barbarian's throwing skills, within ten meters unless Salil and others have weapons in their hands and know in advance that there is going to be a fight, they are likely to be shot in the head.

Body search is one way, and Sofia needs to sense in advance whether others are carrying weapons.

By the way, I have a magnet, so I almost forgot about this.

Lawrence remembered that Sophia had obtained a magnet from the forest people a long time ago. If he could make a magnet bar specially used for inspection, he would be able to greatly ensure his safety.

Not only can you ensure your own safety, but you can also identify dangerous individuals who have sneaked into the market.

Currently, only warriors and guards in their own territories are eligible to carry weapons with them. Ordinary people can only carry agricultural tools and production tools.

The barbarians from outside often made trouble and stole after coming in, but they were all caught by the patrols and provided with jobs for these people, so most of the troubles were eliminated.

There was a pause for a few seconds, and Lawrence gave the seamstress a look of gentle kindness.

"What have you gained in this land?" Lawrence asked a strange question.

The seamstress lowered her head cautiously.

"I have been here for four years, learned the language, started a family here and had two children, got a wooden house for work and living, and raised four chickens and a sheep."

Lawrence said: "So, has your tailoring skills, which you rely on for a living, been improved? How has your skills improved compared to before you came here?"

The seamstress never thought about it.

"I used to make four or five pieces of clothing a year in Durela, and I usually did housework and raise chickens. After coming here, I make more than 30 pieces of clothing every year, and I spend the rest of my time busy on the farm."

“I learned to make skirts, wool coats, cardigans, sheepskin hats.”

Lawrence's clothes were made by this seamstress. Compared with other seamstresses, the seamstress who followed him first had more opportunities to practice.

But her skills are not very good, and the beautiful clothes in the manor come from outside.

Robbery, trade, and Catherine gave many beautiful clothes as a gift when she married.

"As a tailor, you should take some time to seriously think about your career and life."

Lawrence reminded: "When you work for me, I allow you to take a moment to sit there and think about improvements in tailoring techniques, what tools you need to make more beautiful clothes, or any suggestions for beautiful clothes." Think for yourself."

"Of course, all this can be done slowly. I will give you beautiful clothes from the outside world as a template. You can start by learning."

"First, make a mainly white nun's uniform for each of Kehalan and the others, and then make new clothes for the maids for next year."

The seamstress received Lawrence's guidance and orders and quickly agreed, "Yes, Prophet."

Lawrence added: "I will find some people with tailoring skills to work with you and learn each other's skills."

"Yes, prophet!" The seamstress felt that she had received God's guidance, and she felt excited that she was being taken seriously and needed to do something quickly.

Lawrence asked the seamstress to measure Kehalan and make more beautiful and sexy high-end clothes.

Kehalan and Delenn, who don't like to wear clothes much, are actually very suitable for the various special costumes Lawrence has in mind.

Candice took the initiative and said: "Master, I request to teach the tailors how to make beautiful maid uniforms and work clothes."

Lawrence praised: "Okay, I'll leave it to you."

Candice politely thanked her. As a maid of the Ancient Whisperer family and a pure-blooded dark elf who can inherit the blood of elves, her learning ability and knowledge reserve are far better than ordinary people.

Especially since I don't need to be with Catherine all the time now, I have more time to do my own things.

Lawrence was absorbing the culture and technology of the Western and Southern Kingdoms in a way that few people noticed.

Because the local technological and cultural advantages were so great, neither the Southern Kingdom nor the Western Kingdom noticed this.

The newly integrated technologies are still local technologies, and they will become more and more powerful, crushing those backward areas culturally and technologically.

The blacksmith combines techniques from the Western Kingdom, local techniques, and Lawrence's guidance.

Shipbuilding technology is mainly based on the most advanced Valkyrie technology of this era, integrating the guidance of Sailor Man and Lawrence. Now even the Valkyrie people can't tell that many technologies were developed by them.

Agriculture provides technologies such as breeding, screening, fertilizing, insect control, weeding, irrigation, plowing, and agricultural tools. However, agriculture is not iron-clad. It has long been changed to spring planting and autumn harvest.

Technology that is in line with the environment is good technology. Lawrence basically improved it from local agricultural technology and spent many years gradually exploring it to form an unstable technology that is still developing and changing rapidly.

In terms of architecture, Western architecture and local architecture are also copied, but in this era there is no concept of plagiarism.

In addition to showing off their power in attacking the southern pirates, they also wanted to absorb more people and technology and spread more advanced civilization.

Each country has retained excellent technology and dross during its long development. Lawrence, as a predator, is free to filter the culture he wants.

"This winter needs to be more lively. We can hold a bonfire party at the foot of the mountain so that people with different languages ​​can quickly get to know each other and unify the language and writing."

"Tell our women that it is enough to teach our children our language. It is easier to learn our language first."

After hearing Lawrence's arrangement, Salil retorted as the steward of the manor's supplies: "We don't have enough wood."

Lawrence walked to Sariel and looked at Sariel who was playing cards.

"There is still a lot of wood, how can it not be enough?"

Salil turned her head and looked at Lawrence. It was obvious that she had enough reason to say so.

"We need wood for iron making, cooking, water boiling, ship repair, building houses, and tool making. There are so many places where we need wood!"

"Now, except for wheat straw and some burning things, there is not enough wood fuel at all. We will need more fuel in this eternal night, and we cannot use it casually."

Lawrence believed Saryl's words.

"That's right. I forgot that there are a lot more people this year. Whether it's building houses or supporting the forest people, too much wood is used to build houses."

“We definitely need more fuel this winter, and it looks like we’re going to save some.”

Sophia asked curiously: "How to save?"

Lawrence thought about it carefully and quickly came up with a solution.

"This year we will continue to burn wood and wheat straw, and next year we will look for burning stones and coal from the west!"

Not having enough wood to burn is not a problem at all. Just chop more wood. There are a lot of forest resources that can be used in this era.

After dinner in the evening, Lawrence grabbed Delen who was about to take a shower.

"Dren, help me make something."

"What?" Although Delen was confused, he still followed Lawrence upstairs.

Lawrence quickly took out a ceramic bottle from the warehouse. The bottle was strangely rectangular, like a large brick standing on the table.

"Dren, can your ability seal the opening? It only seals the opening and does not affect the structure inside."

Delen pinched it casually, and his two fingers pinched the one centimeter protruding hole together as if by magic.

Delenn's abilities should be that of an earth elemental structural framer, not just digging holes and diluting soil.

"Are you ready?" Delen thought it was a troublesome matter, but when he saw that it was just a small matter, he said casually: "I'm going to take a shower."

"Hmm." Lawrence began to shake the bottle up and down to see if it would leak.

Delen's suturing skills are very good and there will be no leaks for a while.

Lawrence soon went to take a bath as well, and went outside early the next morning to light a fire and burn bottles.

boom!

The empty bottle exploded as expected.

Lawrence has another reserved skill that is very suitable for offense and defense.

Especially the long-range flame combination with Lathander, mother and daughter can explode into the sky!

Sofia looked at the exploding hot water bottle in the distance, "Master, why are we doing this?"

Lawrence smiled and said: "I decided to purchase a large amount of tin ore from Durila. The melting point of tin cans is less than three hundred degrees, which is easier to process than iron cans. We can make some thermos bottles."

Sofia still didn't understand, "Master, what is the use of the thermos bottle?"

Lawrence has a lot going for it.

"It can explode to kill people, and it can also warm feet. Use a mold to make a twisted bottle mouth to prevent hot water from escaping, and then put it in a piece of cloth to keep the temperature in the quilt longer. It is more suitable for our winter."

Durila is rich in tin resources, but they cannot be sold at a good price.

Even when it comes to compensation, they are embarrassed to use tin mines that no one wants to pay debts. The tin mine resources there are like the wood here and can be used for hundreds of years.

The difference is that Lawrence will plant some fruit trees and oak trees, and sow suitable seeds while cutting down the trees.
