Mountain and Forest Kingdom

The success of rapeseed will bring the living standards of the territory to a higher level.

"Kehalan, we will plant a large area of ​​rapeseed here next year to obtain a large amount of rapeseed!"

Kehalan looked at the excited Lawrence and could feel Lawrence's excitement and joy.

"The oil is enough now, is it necessary to be so busy?"

Kharan sat on the chair and leaned on the table lazily, "I feel very good now, I don't want to be so tired."

Lawrence looked at the female scientist sitting on the chair with her legs crossed. She was indeed reliable and coquettish.

"You're right. It's only a matter of time before we are defeated in Telandaho City."

"I sent another 200 people to the Southern Ancient Speaker family to support them, in exchange for the previous 100 people."

"There is nothing going on in the West. The food production in various countries this year is good. We also sold the food in exchange for medicinal materials from the Green Forest Kingdom."

"Except for the two churches, there won't be any war for the time being. Those two churches also know my current strength and won't trouble me again for a while."

"Let's have a good rest. You've worked hard these days, and then we'll enjoy life slowly!"

After the naval battle, its dominance was determined, and now rapeseed has been developed to solve people's livelihood problems.

A breeder of high-yielding potatoes and rapeseed, as well as a master wheat breeder, Kerhalan wanted to take a break, and Lawrence allowed it.

"I'll help you make a comfortable chair, a chair where you can lie down and take a nap."

Lawrence spoke excitedly.

Kehalan felt Lawrence's sincerity, and felt that Lawrence wanted to do his best to reward him because of the results of this research.

"When will Telantho City be conquered?"

Kahalan looked calm and natural and asked an irrelevant question.

Lawrence folded his hands in front of him and thought about this question seriously.

"My plan is to take it slow. I will only plunder a certain population this year, and at the same time clean up the aristocratic forces there. It is expected that the encroachment will be completed within three to five years."

"If we hurry up, we can force them to go south in a year or two and escape from Telland to Norrison."

Kharan nodded, "Then let's wait two years."

"What's going on?" Lawrence became curious.

Kehalan said naturally: "I think there are too few useful witches here. The wizards we have encountered these days are all very powerful wizards. In contrast, the wizards here seem very weak."

"If we could win over the wizards in the south, we wouldn't be so weak."

Lawrence understood Khalan's concerns.

I haven't met many wizards over the years. Except for the wizard who controlled the crow at the beginning, many of the other wizards are very capable wizards.

Some can control hurricanes that can blow people away. People like Andrew were defeated by such wizards.

There are also wizards who can throw boulders, wizards who can control minds, wizards who can summon storms, wizards who can control objects from a distance, and wizards who can set a huge building on fire from a distance of dozens of meters.

In contrast, the witches around Lawrence are all weaklings.

Compared with the wizard's witchcraft, Lathander's witchcraft also seems a bit inferior.

A family of incompetent witches like Elsabelle is even more of a disgrace.

Kehalan's concern is not sentimentality, but that the witches here are indeed weak.

"We are not weak." Lawrence looked at Kehalan seriously, "There are no weak witches, only useless coordinators!"

Kehalan looked at Lawrence in confusion, and combined with the experiences of himself and the other witches, he seemed to understand what the coordinator meant.

"Each of you has an irreplaceable and important role!"

"It is precisely because of your help that I can defeat powerful enemies one after another. This is my huge contribution, and it is also due to your combined strength!"

"The power of a witch is limited, but the power of a group of witches gather around me, and I am the sea!"

Kehalan was encouraged, "I understand! We are not weak now, and no one can destroy our beautiful life!"

Lawrence looked at Kehalan who was relieved and said, "I have been doing things to become stronger. You just have to live a good life and help me. It doesn't matter whether it's those wizards or the church!"

"It's not whether they let us go, it's whether we let them go!!"

Kahalan nodded. The Kingdom of Stars, which has a much smaller number of people than outside, has always been the main attacker, whether it is taking the initiative to attack the Valkyries, the Westerners, or the Tlan Great Hooves who are preparing to fight.

Lawrence and Kehalan worked together to clean up the plant cultivation room. This plant cultivation room will cultivate a large number of rapeseed seeds this winter, so that next year a large number of rapeseed cabbage can be planted in the mountains and fields.

Soon it’s Fried Chicken Day, and it’s also the day to remember the bitter memories and think about sweet rice.

It is stipulated that only two meals can be eaten on this day. No meal in the morning, eating the same meal at noon to recall the experiences before coming here, and eating fried chicken in the evening.

Fried Chicken Day is Lawrence’s Fried Chicken Day, not everyone else’s Fried Chicken Day.

There are now tens of thousands of people in the territory, and Lawrence cannot afford such a huge population.

The kitchen only sells bread and potato soup, and the bread most people eat is brown bread with rye added, which tastes pretty good.

Pumixiu Town has a population of 2,000, Valkyrie 5,000, Manor and Mining Area 2,000, Oak City 1,500, Feiyu Port 3,000, Lower Forest and Southern Villages 2,000.

There are about 15,000 people now. Many children will be born before the arrival of eternal night, and of course some old people will inevitably die.

Lawrence handed over the management of this year's remembering the bitterness and remembering the sweetness to the people in charge in each region. He took the food and soldiers to the Wakili people to host the remembering the bitterness and remembering the sweet rice.

While eating and complaining, everyone talked about what they had eaten before, what kind of life they lived, and how the people in Telangta City treated everyone.

After having a sweet meal together, Lawrence looked at the barbarian sitting on the ground in front of him.

"You have dug a lot of potatoes recently, and you have performed well in more than ten days of labor. Today is our fried chicken day. You will have Yikusi sweet rice for lunch, and you will eat better at night."

"In addition to a glass of vodka for each of you tonight, I'm also going to add some pork and chicken to the potatoes you're eating."

Behind Lawrence were the livestock he had brought, including two pigs and more than twenty chickens.

The savage who was sitting eating bread looked at Lawrence in shock, never thinking that slaves could also eat meat.

The barbarians quickly started cheering, and nearly a thousand people sat on the ground and roared, venting their joy.

Lawrence quickly asked the nearby Wakili people to cook, boil water, kill pigs and chickens.

The nearby barbarians went to the mountains to cut firewood or carry stones and soil.

The potatoes have been dug. There are not many potatoes planted here in Valkyrie this year. The prisoners later helped build the cellar after digging no more potatoes. In short, they were not idle.

As long as they have food to eat, these people don't mind digging potatoes or building cellars.

The next morning, everyone was given meaty potato soup and two pieces of black bread each.

"After you finish eating, you will be free. You can go back to Tlandataho City, or you can go back to your families."

Holding the sword in one hand, Lawrence stood quietly in front of everyone and announced something that caught people off guard.

Everyone who was eating looked at Lawrence. The news was so sudden that everyone was stunned.

"Prophet, can we leave here?" The people in Pig Trotter City thought this was somewhat impossible.

Lawrence looked at these people and said, "Yes, I will use ten boats to send you to the shore near Port Lofing. You can go wherever you want by then."

"I want to stay!" a young man shouted, holding a rice bowl in one hand and bread in the other, and shouted with a sincere face: "I want to be a slave here!"

Lawrence said coldly: "No, all of you have to leave."

The barbarians were speechless, wanting to leave but not wanting to.

Lawrence quickly added: "I will send you near the city of Tlanda. If you can come back on your own, I will accept your allegiance and allow you to become my slaves."

"But I have to leave today. I'll leave after dinner!"

"I will attack Telanthoof City in winter. You can go back and notify your families to take refuge, or you can bring your families over in advance to be slaves."

"I don't care what you choose. You already understand my rules here. Either fight for me or work for food!"

"Those who want to fight for me have also thought clearly, I will take action against Telantho City!"

The nearly one thousand prisoners of war could not resist Lawrence's will, so they obediently boarded the ship and went home after eating.

After these people left, Sophia asked the questions in her heart.

"Why let them go?"

"It's impossible to keep watch over these people during the eternal night. Let those who want to run away, and those who want to stay will run back."

Sophia understood what Lawrence meant. Eternal Night was indeed a trouble. During the month-long dark period, supervision would become very weak. At the same time, the mental state during Eternal Night was also prone to going crazy.

"What about the people who don't want to run or stay?" Sophia was curious about this.

Lawrence looked at the fleet in the distance, "These people are not strong-willed and have no ideas of their own. They are easily influenced by others and are also a source of uneasiness. It will be much better if they leave. What I need are those who accept my favor, not A bunch of ungrateful or ungrateful people.”

"We'll see how many come back in a few days. Those who come back will join the logging team and construction team here, or go fishing."

In this era where servants are generally regarded as expendable goods, Lawrence thought to himself that his willingness to bribe the lower class was considered very good.

If someone is willing to be bribed, then the two parties will live in harmony, and they will give money, food, and treatment, and they will work hard for themselves.

Those who don't want to be bribed should find a place for them to stay.

Lawrence just needs to be grateful to himself and treat this place as a good place for people, rather than a group of uncles who seem to be begging them.

Sophia muttered: "Master, these are just a group of trash who were beaten and surrendered. Do we need to be so kind to them?"

Lawrence felt that Sophia was right. These people were indeed a group of people who came to rob and were beaten to the ground and knelt down to beg for mercy.

If they can live a better life in Telland City than here, they will continue to be uncles.

If Pig Trotter City doesn't treat them as human beings and treats them well here, and they don't know how to take the initiative, then there is no need to keep them. (End of chapter)
