Mountain and Forest Kingdom

Most people did not feel the population problem of Dumu Port.

The population problem of Dumu Port did not deteriorate to the point where it could not survive. The great prophet just solved the problem in advance.

Lawrence was not diligent in government affairs, but he was wise. He could always avoid some difficult problems in advance based on the experience of later generations.

A large part of Dumu Port is much higher than the sea level. The mountains here hinder the flow of the water of the Agama Mountains, causing the river to meander to the west.

The mountains and cliffs on the seaside occupy most of the land. While hindering development, they also provide solid protection and block the summer hurricanes blowing from the west.

There are typhoons in the cold zone. Where there are ocean storms, there will be similar hurricane disasters, and no one can escape.

The summer outside is the autumn of the ice land. This season is also the season when Lawrence prohibits the women divers from going into the water.

At this time of year, the work of the women divers will change from fishing and gathering in the sea to weaving and housework.

Housework is not doing housework for your own family, but doing housework for the monastery and Lawrence in exchange for payment.

Every autumn, the monastery would store pickled meat, pickled vegetables and winter seasonings, and many people were needed to help.

The helpers included wives and daughters of nobles, women from nearby workers' families, and daughters or hostesses of merchants.

They basically came from all walks of life and gradually developed a habit.

Whenever there were festivals and some large banquets, women would come to help.

This kind of gathering activity was not only a time to dedicate to the prophet, but also a time for women to exchange information with each other.

Not everyone could enter the monastery. More girls would choose to get married, and mothers would come to ask which children were promising and worthy of their daughters.

The monastery was a social platform for women. In this era, it was difficult for women to get together and meet people outside the village.

The monastery, where women from noble merchants gathered, and where prophet maids and nuns walked around, could easily become a holy place in the hearts of women.

And if you come here often to work, you might meet the prophet.

"Quack, quack, quack, quack~"

Yu Bao imitated the frogs in the mountains, quacking and walking out with a chicken leg in one hand and a harpoon in the other.

Today is the day to come to work from the manor monastery.

Not only Yubao came, but also Lana and Torrevi.

Torrevi has become the vice-president of the monastery. She has no management experience, but she is trusted by children and young nuns, and can communicate well with several monasteries and churches.

This is something that the young dean cannot do.

Lana looked at Yubao walking to the monastery and shouted: "Yubao, go to the monastery by yourself. The vice-president and I will go to the church. The vice-president's son is waiting for us there."

"Quack~" Yubao didn't look back, raised the chicken leg in his hand and waved to the two people behind him, then put it down and took another bite, and walked forward happily.

Yubao is very smart. Dum Port is also where Yubao grew up. Lana is also relieved that Yubao goes to the monastery alone.

People at the train station also know this little guy, and they took the initiative to make way for Yubao and greeted him with a smile.

"Hi! Yubao!"

"Quack~"

"Yubao has learned a new sound again!"

"Quack~"

"Yubao! Do you want to drink?"

"Ka~" Yubao spit out a mouthful and walked away.

Yubao only likes to eat sweet food, not spicy food. Spicy food is one of the few things that Yubao, who is not picky about food, doesn't like.

Lana and Torrevi walked towards the church.

Bull's son Kenny wrote a letter to Torrevi to meet at the Dum Port Church.

In addition to Kenny, there was also Kenny's fiancée, Torrevi's daughter.

When they arrived near the church, Kenny, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, came with a young girl.

"Mother!"

Kenny has always regarded Torrevi as his mother.

Barbarians have a weak sense of family, and the relationship between father and son and mother and son is very weak.

But maybe because there is no father, and there is also a biological mother who always says that she will send him away, the young Kenny is very dependent on Torrevi who treats him gently.

Torrevi nodded happily and persuaded: "You are now the pastor of the prophet, and I am a nun, so you can call me nun." Kenny smiled and said, "Yes, Sister Vice Dean." "Let's go in and tell her. Nilahaita and I have decided to get married this year. I hope you can be our witness." Torrevi quickly refused, "I can't do it. Let Lord Bull do it, or you should ask the prophet for his opinion. If you can get the prophet to bless you, then you will definitely be happy." Kenny still hopes Torrevi will help witness the marriage. He doesn't respect Lawrence and Bull as much as others. But with Lawrence's consent, Kenny became a pastor of the church. Like the Seravan couple, Kenny has been working for Lawrence. "I'll try. If the prophet doesn't have time to do this kind of thing, I hope you can be our witness."

Torrevi still felt that Bull was more suitable. "I will ask for you when I go back to the monastery later."

"Okay." Kenny didn't force it. He also knew his mother's character. "We have prepared some gifts for you. You will definitely like them."

Kenny and his wife took Torrevi into the cathedral.

Lana followed in with a curious look on her face, feeling that she was in the way and bored.

If I had known, I would have followed Yubao to the monastery... Lana regretted following him.

On the other side, Yubao, who had just come out of the sea after finishing work, suddenly smelled a familiar smell, so he quickly called a female seaman on duty at the beach, and was carried to the prophet's house by the happy female seaman.

"Awoo~Awoo~"

Lawrence, who was exercising in the yard, heard Yubao's voice, and soon saw a young female seaman carrying Yubao into the yard.

Yubao quickly broke free from the girl's arms, jumped to the ground and greeted Lawrence.

"Quack~"

Lawrence smiled and said to the reserved female seaman: "Take some fresh fruits back to eat."

"Yes! Prophet!" The female seaman quickly bowed to thank her.

After seeing this, Yubao also lifted up his straw hat, took out a bulging frog wallet and handed it to Lawrence.

"Oh!" Yubao made a strange sound and gestured with a finger.

Lawrence knew what Yubao meant, opened the tightly closed ring wallet, took out a copper coin and handed it to the tool woman, the sea girl, and then pressed the wallet tightly and returned it to Yubao.

Yubao happily adjusted his straw hat.

If he hadn't often invited Lana to eat meat together, Yubao's wallet would have been bigger and bigger.

However, the meaning of Yubao making money is to spend it, and saving money is also for spending money happily. If there is no Lana to eat, drink and have fun with it happily, there is no point in spending money.

"Yubao, stay in Dumu Port with Lana these days. The fleet I sent to the east should be back soon."

"Quack~" Yubao agreed casually, and soon after the maid brought fresh fruit, he sat under the big tree and ate happily.

The food here at Lawrence is free and delicious.

Lawrence is not short of money like Yubao, but he mainly lacks a good partner who can eat, drink and have fun with him and get along with him equally.

Lana should be considered one, but Lana still wants to become a nun, and... can't support herself.

Yubao can actually support himself, and has always done so. (End of this chapter)
