Mountain and Forest Kingdom

The weather is getting colder, and there are more things for Salil to do.

Sariel, wearing a brown autumn trench coat, stood in front of her closet and had girlish troubles.

"Why are all my clothes brown and gray? Even if they are white, they are not very white."

Sariel folded her hands in front of her, looking thoughtful and troubled like Delenn usually did.

Soon this action could no longer continue. Saryl, who liked to do things, did not spend too much time thinking about plans like Lawrence, nor did she only show her displeasure like Derren did and then wait for others to solve the problem.

The hard-working Salil soon sat in her closet, as if sitting by the bed, arranging her socks and pants in the open closet.

In addition to the skirts and tops hanging above, there are many matching clothes in the wardrobe, such as scarves, belts, shawls, headscarves, gloves, etc.

"Hey!" Salil picked up a white handkerchief that looked very comfortable and felt very comfortable.

Salil looked at the fur in her hands and became happy.

"It's the skin of a snow wolf. I killed a snow wolf before and made it into clothes. I still have the remaining skin."

"I used to make fox skin pillows and deer skin quilts, but after using them for a few years, I threw them away. It was too troublesome to clean them, so I replaced them with new bearskin quilts."

Salil quickly got up and went downstairs to find the maid.

There were only Tim and a few other little girls in the living room, cleaning the dust on the sofa with feather dusters or scrubbing the already clean floor.

"Tim, where did Emma go?" Salil didn't see Candice and Emma, ​​so she came over and asked Tim.

Tim raised his head, stood up quickly and said, "The head maid went to the town to do errands. Today the master wants to bless the married people and talk to the international students. The head maid followed him and will probably not come back until evening."

Sariel remembered that Lawrence did say something in the morning, but she was sleeping and didn't hear it clearly.

"Who's home today?"

Tim replied: "Lord Lathander, Lord Delenn, and Lord Kharan are all at home. The seamstress will come over in the afternoon to deliver winter uniforms and clothes to everyone. The master asked Lord Salil to arrange this in the afternoon."

"Okay!" Salil was in a very good mood and said proactively: "Stop working and let's play cards. Go get the playing cards!"

"Yes, Sir Salil." This was not the first time that the little girls played with Salil, and they quickly went to get things.

The table is brought.

The tablecloth is spread.

Full of snacks.

She used to play with the obedient Sofia, but in the past two years, the obedient Sofia became disobedient and always went out with Lawrence, so Salil quickly got to play with the obedient little girls.

After playing for more than an hour, it was noon, and I took a nap after eating.

Get up in the afternoon to warm up and do exercises with Delen to prevent the body from getting fat.

At four or five o'clock in the afternoon, I go to check the accounts, count the storage and consumption for the week, and replenish whatever is needed.

Then go sit at the big oak tree for a while and feel the presence of nature.

When Lawrence came back in the evening, everyone had dinner together, chatting about today and tomorrow at the dinner table.

After the family had dinner, the maids cleared the table. Everyone sat on the sofa in the living room for a while before taking a shower.

The current bathhouse is much larger than the original bathhouse that could only accommodate six or seven people. It can accommodate twenty people at the same time. In addition to the hot water pool, a warm water pool has also been built for the children and Lawrence.

Lawrence usually sat in the heated pool for a while before entering the hot pool, but he always went out to take a bath soon.

Dark elf women have strong strength and service skills. They not only serve Lawrence, but also serve pure-blood witches such as Kohalan, Catherine, and Cassandra.

This was originally the case, but later on, the other witches could also receive occasional care and receive services that could make their bodies feel happy and joyful.

After washing my body briefly, I go upstairs to rest. Sometimes I am too lazy to go upstairs and just lie down in the lounge to sleep.

When I woke up the next morning, I had to go upstairs to change clothes, which was troublesome but not too troublesome.

Winter is quickly approaching, and the Lawrence family has been given new clothes for the year, as well as plenty of spare clothes and bedding.

The mattresses and sheets here are changed once a week. Although I would like to change them every day, conditions do not allow for such waste.

During breakfast, Cassandra reminded: "Lawrence, we have too few servants and we need to add some."

After hearing this, Lawrence made a rough calculation.

Myself, Cassandra, Katherine, Sariel, Delenn, Sophia, Kohalan, Lathander.

There are now eight official staff, as well as management such as Jade, Emma, ​​and Candice.

Now there are more than 20 people in the family, sometimes more than 30, and the number of beds must be more than 30.

It takes a long time just to clean the room and clean the bath every day, plus three meals a day and various things, it is really not enough.

Compared with the maid, Lawrence felt that the living space was more worth worrying about.

"When I originally planned this villa, it was designed to accommodate a maximum of forty people. Now we may need more than fifty or sixty people."

Lawrence didn't expect that he would develop so quickly. At first, he thought that a two-story wooden house would be enough to live in. When he built the new house, he deliberately doubled the capacity and changed it into a five-story villa, which expanded the space a lot.

In just two or three years, it feels like the house is getting smaller and smaller.

Salil knew this home very well and said curiously: "Our house is enough to accommodate sixty people, and there are still many vacant rooms that can accommodate two hundred people!"

Lawrence thought about this.

It was originally planned according to the design of one person per room, with guest rooms and warehouses left, so it was enough for Salil and others to live in.

Now, for example, the five members of Elsabel's family live in one room. The little maids also live with Emma, ​​and the dark elves also live together, so there are many rooms available.

Servants in this era did not have the luxury of having a separate room, and many actually considered themselves slaves.

"Then hire some more maids, beautiful and capable ones." Lawrence quickly got used to the aristocratic life of this era.

Lathander asked: "Why have no witches come recently?"

Lawrence felt strange, "There are not many witches. I have not received any reports of witches coming recently."

Before Lathander could speak, Kharan pointed out the problem directly.

"Witches are being hunted in both the West and the South right now. Those witches will definitely hide in our place. You don't notice it now because they are afraid of us. I think there must be witches who have sneaked into our place and are secretly observing our attitude towards them."

Lathander nodded, obviously meaning the same thing.

Kassandra took the initiative and said, "Leave this to me and I will find those witches."

Sariel listened to the words of these pure-blood witches and asked curiously: "Why hunt witches instead of wizards?"

"Because wizards are more dangerous." Cassandra looked at Sariel seriously, and then looked at the others. "Usually wizards are attached to a certain force, or they themselves are the master of a certain force."

"If the church deals with wizards, it will take direct action. But if it deals with useless witches, it will just let the people below do it. As long as a group of mortals can tie the witch to a fire pillar and burn it to death, or directly take out the flesh and blood from the witch's belly .”

Salil was frightened, "It's so dangerous..."

Lawrence reassured: "Don't be afraid of this. Neither the west nor the south dare to come and provoke us now. As long as we continue to become stronger, we can protect everyone."

Compared to witches, wizards are indeed more powerful and more intimidating.

Ordinary mortals would persecute a single witch when they gathered together, but when faced with a lone wizard, they were seeking death.

A lone wizard is more dangerous than a group of witches and is the top hunter.

Many villages with dozens or hundreds of people were often killed by lone wizards overnight.

It is human nature to bully the weak and fear the strong. Normal people will not challenge a strong person who can kill them easily, so the main force of the church will deal with wizards.

Those witches who are unsociable and unwilling to fight will be exterminated by the middle and lower levels of the church.

Lawrence quickly arranged for some people to patrol throughout the territory. While searching for witches, he was also responsible for recruiting some female students from the Saint's Academy to establish basic subjects.

There is no persecution of witches here, but there are no rumors about witches in an open and honest manner.

There are only nuns and saints from the Church of the Star, as well as maids and shield maidens serving Lawrence.

Lawrence didn't like violence, nor did he like forcing the witches outside to serve him.

"In the future, sweets such as sugar and fruits will be sold exclusively in candy stores, and they need to be purchased based on their status. Only our people and some international students will be given a share of the purchases."

"The same goes for tea seed oil and lard. I will set a quota. Everyone only has so much. If you want to buy more, you need to do something for me."

"There is no limit on ordinary fabrics, and there are no purchase restrictions on wheat and bread. High-end fabrics, such as the beautiful clothes you wear and the exquisite food you eat, all require purchasing tickets."

Lawrence thought about the various restrictions that could drive witches crazy. After recalling the various performances of the pure-blood and half-blood witches around him, he quickly came up with a vicious idea!

"New entrants are only allowed to use public toilets and bathrooms, and they are only allowed to go to public bathrooms once a month."

Public toilets are dry toilets, and they are very smelly toilets. The conditions are very bad for modern people and unfriendly to ancient people.

"If you come to study at Saint Lady's College, you can eat pancakes every day, and we have cleaner bathrooms and toilets here."

Many conditions and restrictions seem to be innocuous at all and have no impact on most people.

But for some groups, once they have seen beauty and are allowed to endure darkness, they will feel that they will never be happy for the rest of their lives, and they will never forget it. (End of chapter)
