Chapter 94 So that's how those strangely shaped tools are used? ...

The more Shu Xin thought about it, the better she felt about the idea. Considering the size of the flower fairy slaves and commoners, the workload was not a big deal at all.

Thinking of the tunnels, Shu Xin also thought of how to solve the housing problem for the newly arrived flower fairy slaves—they could dig tunnels! She remembered that in some areas of the Loess Plateau, people would dig cave dwellings to live in. Being underground would also provide wind protection. In addition, the flower fairies had night vision, so insufficient lighting wouldn't be a big problem.

It's just that, after all the twists and turns, the flower fairy slaves still have to live underground. Thinking about this, Shu Xin was a little speechless. But on the bright side, the living conditions of the flower fairies underground will definitely be a thousand times or a hundred times better than before!

When the officials summoned them again, the natives of the Land of Sin no longer felt as fearful as before. Seeing that the newly arrived flower fairy slaves were somewhat nervous, they would whisper a few words of comfort.

Nonori, accompanied by her flower fairy servants, arrived before the slaves and distributed the wooden tools that the princess had worked through the night to make.

The flower fairy slaves looked at the strangely shaped wooden objects they had received, somewhat bewildered for a moment. However, the official quickly summoned several flower fairy servants to demonstrate how to use the two tools.

One of the tools consisted of a thin, long wooden stick attached to a square wooden board with its edges thinned. The flower fairy servant who was responsible for demonstrating the tool grabbed the upper half of the wooden stick with both hands, and then, while flying through the air, he slammed the tool down hard onto the ground.

The thin, sturdy square wooden plank was driven deep into the ground. The flower fairy servant held onto the stick tightly, not letting go, but instead flying backward to use the force to press down the vertical stick. The square wooden plank, which was driven into the soil, was pressed up along with a large clod of earth. Then, holding the stick, the square wooden plank connected to the stick was used to push the clod of earth aside, leaving a deep and large pit in the ground.

The flower fairy slaves' eyes widened in shock. They didn't know how long it would take them to dig such a big pit by hand!

The other tool also uses a round wooden stick as a grip, but instead of a square, thin wooden board, it is connected to a large, round, thick block of wood.

The flower fairy servant, who was also holding the upper half of the wooden stick, first raised the stick and lifted the connected wooden block high above her head. Then, she slammed the stick down hard on the ground. Just before it hit the ground, she quickly swung the stick and smashed the wooden block into the pit that the servant had dug earlier. With a bang, the previously loose soil was smashed into a firm and flat surface.

The flower fairy slaves were in an uproar. So that's how it's used?!

Many flower fairies, when they were still commoners, tried to do this with stones when building houses. However, it was difficult to control the direction and force when throwing stones. It was also time-consuming to choose a stone of suitable size and weight, and it was easy to break the stone. But with a large wooden block with a long handle like this, it would be much easier to control the direction and force.

As for hardness, the flower fairies all recognized that this tool was made from the branches of a magic tree, which are much harder than stone!

Shu Xin stayed up all night to finish making this batch of wooden hammers and shovels. Fortunately, the common flower fairies were quite small, and the flower fairy slaves were even smaller. Even considering that the flower fairies were gradually growing taller, Shu Xin deliberately made the tools larger. After making such a large batch of wooden tools, she didn't use up much of her inventory. Otherwise, Shu Xin would really be worried about what she would use to make suitable tools...

Once the flower fairies have regained their original size, the Land of Sin should be able to supply other wood or stone materials again, Shu Xin thought optimistically. She handed the finished tools to Nonoli and used illusion magic to show him the effect of the water channel she wanted the flower fairies to create. Then, Shu Xin yawned and climbed into bed to catch up on her sleep.

After a good night's sleep, Shu Xin opened her eyes, stretched, and went downstairs to eat something. When she was about to study how to dig a tunnel, she realized that she had forgotten to tell Nuonuo how to use the two tools. She quickly flew out of the Flower Castle, only to see the flower fairy slaves already working with wooden hammers and shovels in the distance—but the way the flower fairies used the wooden hammers and shovels was completely different from what Shu Xin had imagined!

Shu Xin cast a concealment spell on herself and flew to the flower fairy who was frantically digging a hole and smashing soil, and carefully examined her.

After watching in silence for a moment, Shu Xin had to admit that the method the flower fairies had figured out on their own was indeed more suitable. In fact, if they had used these wooden hammers and shovels in the way she had originally envisioned, that is, in the way humans normally use them, it would not have been as convenient as it is now.

The wisdom of the working people is truly boundless, Shu Xin couldn't help but exclaim once again.

When Lillian was dug out of the ruins by the slave traders in a daze, she hadn't yet realized what had happened; her memory was still stuck on the previous night.

Before falling asleep, she complained to her parents about the white moon fruit on the table. The overripe fruit was so sweet that it made her feel like her throat was being choked. As a result, her older brothers and younger sister all laughed at her, telling her not to eat so many at once next time. She lay down to sleep, still thinking that she was determined to eat a lot of them. White moon fruit is so delicious, why can't she eat more? There are so many fruit hanging on the bushes outside that they are almost touching the ground!

When Lillian opened her eyes again, she didn't see the roof of her own little house, but a huge slave trader with an indistinct face and a blue cloak.

Oh, she's become a slave, is that right...?

The sudden fire burned almost the entire village to the ground. Lililian, who had a talent for water magic, was the only flower fairy in her family to survive. She briefly regained consciousness and then fell into a long sleep. Between her sleep and wakefulness, she knew that she and the other flower fairies who had survived the natural disaster had been gathered into bundles by slave traders, taken to the market, transferred to another slave trader, and finally sold to this place called the Land of Sin.

Lillian didn't care where she had come from, nor did she care about her fate.

But what she didn't expect was that these slaves were not only arranged to live in the romantic and fragrant flower fields, but at night they could also sleep with the other slaves in a beautiful house that smelled of nuts. Even though they needed several flower fairies to sleep in one house, Lillian found it incredible. For the tiny flower fairy slaves, such a spacious house was more than enough to sleep dozens of flower fairies. In the end, the local slaves all had their own houses!

What Lillian found even more unbelievable was that the slaves here could eat two meals a day!
