Mountain and Forest Kingdom

The land of ice has been dull and lively since the last invasion of the giant octopus.

Two or three years passed in a flash, and it was the eighteenth year of the new calendar.

The number of steam trains outside increased from one to three.

The railway track developed from the line of Dumu Port-Pumeishiu Town-Ironforge to two lines leading to the southern forest and the eastern Valkyrie.

The number of steamships also increased from one to ten.

The number of cattle, chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, and snow dogs has increased a lot, and the population has increased by more than 100,000.

Lawrence also had one hundred more children, with new children born almost every month for three years.

The eighteenth year of the new calendar, winter

Snow Mountain Castle

Lawrence comes to stay for a few months every year. The industry and agriculture here are booming, and the breeding industry is gradually becoming more abundant.

In the large kitchen of Snow Mountain Castle, Lawrence and Tim prepare this year's new food in front of the fireplace.

Salil and Emma also learned Lawrence's method on the other side and conducted experiments.

Lawrence mixed plant ash, lime, and edible alkali in proportion to form a paste, then put the eggs in with a spoon and covered them with cement, and then rolled them on the floor covered with sawdust ash on one side.

Tim put on gloves and placed the rolled eggs one by one in the box on the side.

After placing the first floor, someone took it to the warehouse for placement.

"That's it." Lawrence felt that it was almost done, so he handed the spoon to Tim, "You can take it out and eat it in seven or eight days. This is called a transformed egg."

Salil has learned how to make a changed egg, but there is no mature turned egg, so she has no reference and doesn't know whether she is doing well or not.

"Lawrence, is the transformed egg delicious?" What Salil cared about most was this.

Lawrence has always been able to make a lot of delicious food over the years, some are delicious, some are quite delicious, and some are not like eating.

Lawrence couldn't be sure, "I don't know, everyone's preferences are different, I can't be sure."

"No way? I think what I like to eat, others also like to eat." Salil expressed her opinion.

Lawrence defended: "That's because supplies are scarce, and some are good to eat, so as long as they are similar, everyone likes to eat. Now, the food you eat has gotten better and better over the past ten years, and you have become more and more picky."

"I still feel it is necessary to continue to remember the bitter and sweet, so that after experiencing some hardships, I will cherish my current life more."

Salil refused at first, "Forget it, Lawrence, I really don't understand why you like to endure hardship?"

Lawrence stood up and went to wash his hands at the sink, "I can't explain to you, you can't understand."

Lolita, who was busy cooking at this time, said quickly and show off: "I know! The master doesn't want to run too fast, so he takes a few steps back to eat some bitterness to offset the sweetness!"

Emma frowned and scolded sternly: "Lolita! This is not what you should say! You are not a child anymore! This is offensive!"

After being scolded by Emma, ​​the twelve-year-old Lolita quickly realized her mistake and quickly lowered her head to Lawrence.

"I'm sorry! Master! I didn't mean it...it's my fault! Please forgive me..."

Lawrence was not angry, but thought seriously about Lolita's words.

"Lolita is right, I almost have this mentality. Sure enough, sometimes bystanders can see things more clearly."

"There are actually many smart women around me, but for various reasons they have always tolerated my various little problems and influenced my preferences."

"Lolita is right to point out my problem. Our teaching is to absorb knowledge. As a prophet, I have the obligation and right to lead everyone to live a better life, but I am not omniscient and omnipotent. Someone needs to constantly remind me."

Salil said happily: "I feel relieved when you say that, Lawrence. I will help you! I was embarrassed to say anything to you before, for fear of losing face to you."

Lawrence ignored Sariel and comforted the frightened Lolita: "Don't be afraid, Lolita, you and Heidi made the steam engine together. I have always known that you are a smart child."

"But respecting your opinion is what keeps you busy in the kitchen and the castle. You can still do this in the future."

"Don't think it was wrong this time. It won't be the same in the future. I really need someone to give me advice and point out my shortcomings."

Lolita breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully: "Yes, master! Merciful master!"

Lawrence said to Emma: "Clara is already fifteen years old, and Lolita is twelve years old. It's time to be promoted from a trainee maid to a full-fledged maid, so as to increase their salary."

"Yes, Master." Emma knew Lawrence's attitude. He was protecting Lolita and was as kind and tolerant as ever.

Saryl reminded: "Lawrence, Tim can also become a formal maid from a trainee maid. How about letting her cook?"

Tim became happy after hearing this, but Emma next to him poured a bucket of cold water.

"No, Tim's skills are not good enough. She is not capable of becoming a chef now. She has to study for another two years."

Lawrence looked at Tim's fallen face and smiled.

"Emma is right, Tim, just wait for another two years, but when you have nothing to do, you can cook for yourself, or you can use the remaining ingredients to make something for your partner and mother to try. "

"In this way, your cooking skills will improve. Just washing vegetables and cleaning pots and doing housework will not improve your cooking skills."

Lawrence's words determined the approximate time of Tim's promotion. She was not mature enough to be a chef.

After handing over the making of the eggs to the maid in the kitchen, Lawrence and Salier went to the bedroom to rest.

The queen came over with a bulging belly at this time, "Master, do you want to rest now?"

Lawrence wanted to rest, but suddenly saw the elf queen with disheveled hair and Salier with a simple ponytail next to her.

"It's too early to rest now. Let's go to the treasury and find some jewelry for you."

"Finn, call all the mistresses to the treasury. They are too shabby and need some jewelry and jewels to embellish them."

The maid Finn quickly went out to call people and inform the mistresses in the castle.

Salier asked, "Lawrence, the treasury is full of jewelry necklaces and gold and silver coins. I already have a lot, and they are not as beautiful as beautiful clothes."

Lawrence wanted to change the country girl temperament of some women around him.

"Sariel, I think your hair is a bit shabby with messy hair, like a poor person."

"I didn't mess it up, I tied it up well." Sariel corrected Lawrence's mistake and looked at the queen with messy hair next to him.

Although the queen had messy hair, she was very beautiful and had a great figure. Sariel couldn't compare to her. She was a natural beauty!

Even so, the queen felt a bit shabby.

Lawrence explained seriously: "You can have more decorations on your head, such as gold and silver hairpins, earrings and necklaces, so that you look more noble. And if your subordinates do something that makes you happy, you can also take out a hairpin from your head and reward her."

Sariel didn't understand, "I have money, I always carry a wallet with me, and besides, these are our slaves and maids, and we have paid them wages, why should we give them extra rewards? This will spoil them!"

Lawrence was speechless by Sariel's words. After thinking carefully, he found that Sariel was right.

He couldn't promote the tipping culture, which was the dregs of civilized society!

"Sariel is right, I will give you a few more pieces of jewelry!" Lawrence affirmed Salier's wisdom.

Salier became happy, "Then I will take a few more beautiful jewelry!"

"Okay." Lawrence was very easy to talk to, and said to the obedient queen standing next to him: "You should also wear something sexy and noble, so that I will be happier."

The queen nodded charmingly, "Yes, Master~" (End of this chapter)
