Mountain and Forest Kingdom

Summer is the season when clothes are washed most frequently.

After Lawrence came back from the manor monastery, he called a meeting of the witches in the castle.

After the witches arrived, Lawrence found that most of the female elves were wearing sexy underwear, some were directly wearing swimsuits or wearing erotic clothes similar to towels.

"Why are they all wearing so cool clothes?"

Lawrence asked casually, feeling helpless and emotional, but he couldn't get angry.

Sophia smiled and said, "I thought it was a party!"

Sariel didn't have so many bad intentions, and seriously made excuses for everyone, "The weather is too hot, so it's normal to wear less."

Deren smiled and broke the stage, "It's not hot in our castle at all. It's a bit cold when the wind blows, especially when Dana is here."

Dana, who was sitting not far away, didn't mind this joke. She was very satisfied with her life here, and her own aggressiveness was also very low. After coming here, she became more peaceful.

Now Dana's main task is to help the female students in the school understand the existence of witchcraft, and at the same time let every witch understand and use their own witchcraft, so that they can better restrain and use this gift.

Despite her strength, Dana has the character of a scholar and educator.

The aggressive one is Divkris, and generally the others don't provoke this arrogant female elf.

Sariel boasted: "I am not cold or hot in what I wear. The clothes and the crown that Lawrence gave me are very beautiful!"

Lawrence raised his hand, "Be quiet, I will directly say that the purpose of this meeting is mainly to hope that everyone will work together to help research a potion that can make clothes cleaner."

"It's like the soap we usually use, but it can also be solid powder, or liquid shampoo and other cleaning products."

"By mixing with water, the dirt on the clothes is removed while stirring."

"The principle of cleaning the dirt on the clothes is to let the dirt leave the clothes. Everyone has seen our clothes. The production process is that clothes are made up of woolen threads, and each woolen thread is made up of silk threads. "

"The dirt is actually attached to the fibers of the woolen threads. We can take away some of it with our hands because these rice grains and meat pieces are too big, and some small things will get stuck on the clothes and stick to the gaps on the surface. "

"I need an active agent, not alive, but it can move the dirt, has the function of lubricating water and clothes, and has the characteristics of fusing grease and dirt. "

Lawrence explained the specific principles to the witches. Only by letting the witches understand what laundry detergent is can they make such a thing.

Divkris sat in the front row to listen to the lecture. She came here to have a party. Even if there was no chance of pregnancy, she was still happy to get the same glory and status as the queen.

"Master, I don't understand." Divkris raised her hand and asked the master to look at her more.

Lawrence looked at the female elf with the ability to cut.

Divkris' ability is cutting, which can easily cut people and trees into many pieces.

When Stella was going to take them outside to rebuild the elf village, this noble female elf who had experienced the superior life of Snow Mountain Castle but could not enjoy it was driven crazy.

Stella could not beat this noble elf, so she obeyed him tactfully, which prevented the death of most elves.

In front of Lawrence, this noble elf showed a servility and obedience that Lawrence could not imagine, and successfully became one of Lawrence's female slaves.

In addition to cutting, Difkris's ability also includes controlling the wind and releasing sound waves. She is a very dangerous combat witch.

But she is very afraid of fighting. In addition to bullying the inferior elves who have no ability, she is afraid of seeing other wizards and dares not fight at all. She is like a dog seeing its master, wagging her tail and begging for mercy for the powerful Lawrence.

Lawrence knows many of Difkris's problems, but it is not a disadvantage for him. Difkris also uses her cutting ability to help Heidi make a steam engine, saving a lot of manpower and material resources.

In the early days of the industrial age, having a precise metal cutting machine was definitely a great help.

"What don't you understand? Tell me, I will tell you again."

Lawrence encouraged Difkris to speak out the problem. Only by speaking out what she didn't understand can she get help from others and explain the problem clearly.

Difkris stood up and said seriously: "What I don't understand is... why do we have to wash clothes? Our clothes are worn out and dirty, can't we just change them into new ones?"

Lawrence: ...

The other elves looked at this side in surprise.

Some elves think that Difkris has a problem with her brain.

Some elves think that Difkris is right!

Stella is the kind of person who thinks that Difkris has a mental illness.

"Difkris! How can you say such stupid things? I can't imagine that such stupid things actually come from the mouths of our upper elves!"

Stella stood up and reprimanded the upper elf on behalf of the lower elves.

Among the hundreds of witches in the conference room, most are female elves, with only a small number of human witches and female students, as well as female warriors and maids.

As soon as Stella finished speaking, Oroda stood up to refute.

"I think what Difkris said is right! Since we joined here and became slaves of the great master, new clothes will be delivered to us every two weeks."

"Whether it is beautiful clothes or gorgeous jewelry, we can get these rewards from the benevolent master, relying on our loyalty and hard work."

"We, the hardworking elves, are not as lazy as you elves in the mountains and forests, wearing the same clothes for more than ten years! Dirty and smelly!"

Stella's face was red, "Don't tell lies! I have never worn the same clothes for more than ten years. Even in the forest, I will change two clothes!"

Devokris said disdainfully: "I don't want to tell you your forest story. I live very well with the master. Look at my beautiful clothes. Have you seen such soft fabrics? Have you worn them? It's very comfortable!"

"You low-level elves must not know how many beautiful clothes the master gave me! I can't remember clearly, because my wardrobe can only hold 100 pieces, and I threw away the extra ugly ones!"

Lawrence originally called everyone to discuss the matter of washing powder, but now this group of witches are not discussing the matter of washing powder, or even whether it is necessary to openly order washing clothes.

It was Lawrence's mistake to let these witches live a good life too early.

At this time, Lawrence has realized his problem.

He gave too much...

Although it sounds a bit harsh, the current problem is that after letting the witches enjoy a superior life, their ideological innovation and work enthusiasm have rapidly dropped to the freezing point.

It is definitely not possible to reduce the rewards now, such as reducing the welfare benefits of Difkris, then this female elf will definitely be depressed and go crazy.

Lawrence stood up and looked around at the shocked expressions on the faces of the female elves nearby. These ignorant female elves learned about the existence of another class because of the quarrel between Difkris and Stella.

"Dismissed! I will be resting in the castle for the next ten days. Whoever can come up with useful laundry tools during this period, I will let her live the same life as Difkris!"

"You can work together, but you are forbidden to mess with each other! I will give good treatment to useful women and elves!"

Lawrence looked at Difkris again, "I let you live a good life, but I don't want you to quarrel with other elves! Your task is to serve me well. If your smart brain can also think of something useful for me, I will slap your big ass hard a few times!!"

Difkris quickly tightened her legs, "Yes! Master!!"

Under Lawrence's high reward, a research craze soon came quietly.

Even Salier pulled Deren and Emma to study how to wash clothes together.

Salier was just interested in this kind of thing and didn't need extra rewards.

But Tim and Lolita cared a lot, and the three-person team soon discussed how to wash clothes around the kitchen basin.

The laundry craze spread from the mistress and the maid witch to the female warriors and women outside.

Nuns and overseas students from all over the world, as well as priests and craftsmen, also began to study this problem.

There is a need for washing clothes in all walks of life. Because the main materials for dirty clothes are different for different jobs, and the cleaning methods are also varied.

Some people wash with water, and some wash with sea.

When sailors sail for a long time, they will wrap their clothes and tie them with ropes, and then use the impact of the water flow to remove the dirt and sweat stains inside. However, the quality of many clothes is not good enough, and it is easy to leave only a rope in the end.

The traditional way of washing clothes in the Ice Land is to wash with water, and then scrape with a knife when you are free.

In the past, most people wore animal skins, and the food was relatively poor, so the dirt they encountered was basically dust and soil.

What animals can wash clean, people can naturally do.

In addition, in the past, people didn’t pay much attention to things like cleanliness. It was enough for clothes to be wearable, and it didn’t matter whether they were clean or not.

With the improvement of the times and living standards, under the call of Lawrence, the merchants and nobles in Dum Port and Pumice Town also began to care about this matter.

The Ice Land gathered thinkers and inventors of this era.

The business atmosphere here, the respect for knowledge by all, the integration of efforts over the past decade, and the great prestige of the prophet, led to the early arrival of the first R\u0026D boom.

Heidi's steam engine, Sophia's clockwork gear clock, and the witch war in the south did not trigger it. Instead, the seemingly unimportant laundry incident triggered this boom.

People began to wash clothes in various ways, even taking a bath and washing their hair.

Because dirty clothes are gone after washing, they also wash their faces and hair by the way.

Because they put on clean clothes, they suddenly felt that they should tidy up their hair and shoes, so they indirectly promoted the hygiene habits of some people.

There are differences in mentality when wearing clean clothes and dirty clothes.

Women put on beautiful clothes and go out for a walk even if they have nothing to do.

This is still an ordinary woman. For more materialistic witches, the words of Difkris and Oroda made them unable to calm down for a long time.

They are all female elves and pure-blooded witches. Who can't do things like shaking their buttocks and dancing like Difkris?

Why can Divkris live a life with a hundred beautiful clothes, but we have to wear one piece of clothing for one season?

When in the forest, most elves actually lived separately, and there were not many elves in a village.

Class and noble life were very indifferent to the elves at that time. Everyone took care of themselves and occasionally handed over some food and medicinal materials to the outside world. This was how they lived for many, many years.

Even though they lived together for these years, they were all prisoners, and they exchanged food and stability by satisfying the animal desires of Lawrence, the king of barbarians.

Everyone endured it for a bite of food and clothes. In fact, not many elves were willing to do that kind of thing.

But after being awakened by the words of Oroda and Difkris today, the witches who were not stupid quickly realized the huge difference here!

The queen, Oroda, Difkris and others twisted their waists and buttocks for Lawrence every day, in exchange for benefits that no one knew about!

The kingdom of elves had been razed long ago. Except for Stella, the other female elves never thought that the kingdom of elves still existed, nor did they think that the queen and others were still queens.

Fortunately, Lawrence gave all witches a way to live a good life and extinguished the flames of class struggle.

Otherwise, the awakened witches would only bring destruction and fighting, rather than solving problems.

Their destruction and fighting will bring bad consequences. In order to avoid more serious consequences, the rulers will compromise and appease this group after solving some of the troublemakers.

But what are the demands of these witches? The demand that every witch live a good life is difficult to achieve.

Unrealistic demands will only bring more destruction and hatred.

Lawrence understands the trouble of such things, so he still strictly abides by the doctrine of more work, more pay, and requires the rest of the people and witches to use wisdom and labor results to improve their class and live a good life.

If there is no effort, and no excellent qualities such as knowledge, loyalty, and wisdom, then you are definitely not qualified to get more.

The trouble caused by Difkris also made Lawrence realize that he can no longer blindly improve the quality of life of witches, otherwise these witches will use a very short time to regard themselves and the rest as two creatures.

Although this ideology was used before, Lawrence was most troubled by the difference in thinking.

The witches in the past just had different ways of thinking. They still looked at problems from the most fundamental aspects of interests, animality, and humanity.

Those ways of thinking without morals and unnecessary emotions are immoral, but they also really hit the core.

Now it is different. Now it is not only immoral, but also more and more extreme and violent.

If the witches' way of thinking is very different from that of ordinary people because of the material level, then these witches will lose the ability to govern the country and become a group of sows and bitches who can only eat, drink, bark and mate. (End of this chapter)
