My Magic Age

After the Nibru Spiders retreated, the two most important problems faced by the residents in the Black Forest were post-war reconstruction and food crisis. Almost all wild animals in the Black Forest, whether they were Warcraft or ordinary beasts, and even some large birds, were slaughtered by giant spiders. The spiders ate everything they could eat.

After the war, the Black Forest returned to its former tranquility. People living in the forest needed to face their future lives. For people living in Tanton City and Trum Town, the food in the forest suddenly became very scarce after the Spiders left. The shortage of meat food had little impact on the vegetarian Yelo natives, but it was a bit uncomfortable for the Green Empire people living here.

The days without stewed meat and grilled steaks made the residents of Trum Town no longer so picky about meat.

During the war, the residents were afraid of the Nibru Spiders, and their food needs were just to fill their stomachs.

After the war, people began to be dissatisfied with the current situation and had some new requirements for the food on the table. However, the lack of food added many new things to the menu of the residents here. Walking in the free market, you can see some unique meats from the Hierro plane hanging on the iron hooks in the butcher shop in the free market, such as some large lizard tails that look a bit like ham, or rows of bullfrogs that look like white-striped chickens after being peeled, and the whole swamp giant crocodile was also placed in sections on the butcher table.

Probably because giant spiders don't like to get close to rivers, some amphibians living on the riverbank are lucky enough to survive, but in the end they still have to be put on people's tables.

This time I stayed in the town of Trum for more than a day. It was a rare time to have some peace. I took off the "Earth's Wrath" magic pattern structure, took off the noble medal and magician badge on my chest, and wore a linen round-necked shirt, breeches, and long leather boots that were particularly popular in the town of Trum. I inserted a skinning dagger on my belt and hung a purse that would make a slight sound when walking. These were the clothes most often worn by the residents of Trum, just like an ordinary young adventurer.

Katarina wanted to take the original design drawings of the town and discuss with the dwarf Bernd about the market area that was about to be built in the town. I took Puyaka and Connie to stroll around the town of Trum.

The streets and alleys of this emerging town still maintained their cleanliness. The bluestone paved roads revealed grayish-white stripes after being washed by rain. The gaps on the stone walls on both sides were smoothed with white lime, and the creepers at the foot of the wall had just pulled out a few filaments.

I like stone walls covered with ivy, so some ivy and wild grape vines are planted between the walls of the houses in the town of Trum.

The climate in the Yelo plane is warm and rainy, so there are wide rain shelters in front of the doors of each alley, so that residents can go out on rainy days.

Although it was not raining at this time, the eaves were still very wet, and occasionally some water drops dripped from them, "clicking" "clicking" "clicking" falling on the stone slabs, and instantly shattered.

These houses are close to the street, and there is a small yard behind them. When I took Puyaka and Connie through a yard, I saw the man in the yard planting trees with two children, so I chatted with the owner of the yard across the wall. I suggested to him to plant a lemon tree, and when the lemon tree grows taller, a table can be placed under the tree.

The two children in the yard looked at Puyaka and Connie curiously. They seemed to be very curious about the natives. The owner of the yard warmly invited us to come in for a cup of tea, and I smiled and politely declined.

The leaves of the chestnut tree they planted in the yard were already withered and yellow. It was summer now, and it was usually difficult for transplanted trees to survive. This chestnut tree was obviously older than the transplanted tree age. In my opinion, it was likely that this chestnut tree would not survive. Obviously, the owner of the yard did not know that the chestnut tree he transplanted would not survive, so he asked the two expectant children to start cultivating the soil and watering it.

Connie pushed the door open from outside the yard and walked in. The sweet-looking girl would never be annoying no matter where she was. She walked directly to the chestnut tree, half-crouched, stretched out her hand and drew some strange runes around the chestnut tree that only the natives could understand, then half-knelt in front of the chestnut tree, put her hands together and chanted a series of incomprehensible spells to the chestnut tree. The wood element began to condense in front of the strange rune array. The small chestnut tree was moistened by the wood element, and the withered yellow leaves turned green little by little, and the whole tree seemed to come alive little by little.

In the eyes of the children full of surprise and admiration, Connie stood up with a smile. She was slim and light, and wearing a linen dress made her look like a forest fairy. She said some encouraging words to the two children and asked them to take good care of the chestnut tree. The two children nodded repeatedly and looked very well behaved.

The owner of the yard did not expect to meet a Yerro native girl with magical powers, and there was some awe in his eyes.

After saving the chestnut tree, we did not stay any longer and said goodbye to the owner of the yard and left the alley.

The low shrubs on the roadside have just begun to take shape. It will take some time for these shrubs to slowly grow lush branches and leaves. Only the main street has some shops on both sides. The sweet smell of baking bread can be heard from the bakery on the side. The smell of yeasty wheat and honey will make people involuntarily touch their belly with their hands.

Although Puyaka and Kony were wearing long linen skirts, they could still tell that they were girls from an indigenous tribe. When they passed by a bakery, the owner of the bakery actually gave them each a spiral bread with a filling inside. The thick salad dressing and the rich milky bread made the indigenous girls’ eyes roll with laughter.

Although the owner of the bakery said that he didn't need any money, Kony and Priyanka saw the price of spiral cream bread on the price list in the window and paid for the bread according to the price on the price list. They took money from their money bags. He took out some coins from his pocket, counted out twenty-six coins in a serious manner, handed them to the shop owner, and turned around to leave under the surprised eyes of the shop owner.

After leaving the bakery, I asked Priyanka curiously: "Since the owner of the bakery has said that he will give the bread to you for free, why do you insist on spending money to buy the bread?"

Puyaka held the bread in her hand. As she walked, she thought about it seriously and said to me: "Koni and I also have some change on hand, so we don't need the bakery owner to give us bread for free."

Coni usually speaks very few words, and the granddaughter of the elder of the Gilda tribe is almost always talking. Now she can speak the imperial language fluently, with a strong imperial accent.

I turned around and asked Corny on the other side: "Where's Corny, you think so too?"

This disciple of the great witch didn't expect that I would actually turn around and ask her again. She looked at me in astonishment. Her big eyes were very clear. She lowered her eyelids and didn't dare to look at me. She just said silently: "I I hope the indigenous people living in the town of Trum can be fully integrated here.”

We passed through a semicircular arch, and a unique and gorgeous bridge appeared above our heads, connecting the buildings on both sides of the street. There was a very eye-catching plaque hanging on the arch bridge, which said Cat's Claw Inn, this hotel. The hotel is not small, and it actually spans both sides of the street. I looked up and saw rows of white sheets drying on the roof terrace. People were coming and going at the door of the hotel. It seemed that the hotel's business was quite good.

This reminds me of Count Zimmerman's widow, Ann Zimmerman's mother, Lady Jenny. I remember that she also opened a hotel in Ayr City, and I don't know about Alia's. My niece, Miss Demi, has not returned to the North.

By the time I realized that I was distracted, I had been silent for a while, so I had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "I heard from Bernd that the indigenous people in the town live a pretty good life and obey the rules."

Puyaka saluted me from the side, and then said softly: "We can have these, but we still have to thank you. It was you who made the people of the Green Empire change their attitude towards us."

I said to them: "I hope this can become a place of freedom, equality, and rule of law. As long as they abide by the rules here, anyone can live in this town, whether they are dwarves, elves, orcs, barbarians, Aboriginal people and other races can live here without any discrimination.”

It was as if a plaque like 'I am an herbalist' was hung above the head of the Hierro indigenous people. When the three of us turned to a street that looked a little lively, although it was not the main cross street, there were some on both sides of the street. In small shops, there will always be some businessmen from the Green Empire approaching us at this time, politely asking Puyaka and Kony if they have any magic herbs in their hands. Regardless of any magic herbs, these businessmen All are guaranteed to be purchased at market price.

Unexpectedly, there were so many vendors buying herbal medicines that suddenly appeared like mushrooms in the town of Trum. Obviously there was huge profit margin, which was probably one of the reasons why the indigenous people were able to quickly integrate into this town. First, the Green Empire needs a large amount of healing magical herbs, and the Yero indigenous people are experts at collecting magical herbs in the forest. Only these indigenous people know where those herbs grow. Because of this, the indigenous people do this. Popular with town residents.

When we came to the market, we began to see some indigenous people from the Gilda tribe setting up stalls in the market to sell some magic herbs. They obviously knew the prices of the herbs in the town, and those merchants who wanted to sew them were We can't get any benefit from them, and only real herbal traders will come to their stalls to inquire about prices.

These indigenous people of the Gilda tribe know Puyaka and Kony. When we pass by them, these indigenous people will stand up very respectfully and salute Puyaka and Kony, as if they are worshiping them. Princess.

Puyaka would sometimes stop and ask the indigenous people something in indigenous language.

"They said life here is pretty good. You can eat delicious wheat cakes every day, and you don't have to worry about the Niburu spiders and jungle beasts. It's just that the place they live in is a bit unaccustomed. The floors in those stone houses are very cold... ..." Puyaka walked out of the market and started chattering to me about the content of her chat with the indigenous residents.

We return to the town governor's apartment, which is also the temporary residence of the dwarf Bernd.

Bernd and Catalina have already discussed which areas of the town should focus on construction next.

However, Katarina and Bernd had some differences on how to build it.

Bernd believed that a large furnace should be built outside the town near the mine. After all, there was a large open-pit iron mine next to the town of Trum. Although it was still under development, the furnace for refining ore would be built sooner or later, which would become a cornerstone of the industrial system of the town of Trum in the future.

Katarina believed that the internal environment of the town should be improved and some public facilities should be added. As the population of the town increased, new problems began to emerge one after another. These problems needed to be solved as soon as possible, while the mine and smelting workshop could be put aside.

In the end, the stubborn dwarf Bernd compromised and decided to carry out the next step of the town construction according to the plan mentioned by Katarina.

Before leaving, Bernd put his feet on the chair, slapped the table and said to me seriously: "Meat, dairy products, eggs, yes... and barley... Don't always bring wheat flour here, I want barley, barley that can be used to brew beer, which dwarf doesn't drink beer at dinner?"

No matter where they are, dwarves like to drink, even in the town of Trum, which is currently extremely short of supplies.

Bernd complained to us that his dinner recently was almost all stewed lizard tails, which made him have an illusion every day when he woke up from sleep that sooner or later he would become a big lizard, so he needed some normal meat, such as yellow sheep meat and bison meat, as well as cheese and butter...

"List, I mean a detailed list, don't always say it casually and think I can bring it back to you." I knocked on the table, motioning him to be quiet, this problem can't be solved by his loud voice. I said to him, "Besides, I can't bring a lot of fresh food that is not easy to store. Those things will spoil after a short time in the Hiero plane. I will try to get you some food that is easy to store."

"Can you transport a batch of yellow sheep here?" Bernd asked me.

I frowned and said, "Even if I transport a batch of yellow sheep here...how are you going to feed them? Or are you going to turn the forest around the town of Trum into pasture?"
