Chapter 53 53. Unwelcome Soybeans

"It needs magic power!" Lovi tried to make mental contact and sensed the dragon egg's desire.

"Didn't you input it before and it didn't work?" Lodel frowned.

"Maybe the input is not enough." Lowe yawned, "Do you want me to help you? If not, I'll go to sleep."

"Enter it!" Lodel made up his mind, "If I can't become a dragon knight, do you know the consequences?"

"What are the consequences?"

"Just be a dragon."

"Just say some dirty words."

Lovi's cold hand reached out, but before he could explore a few times, it was grabbed by Lodel and placed on the eggshell.

He began to concentrate his mind, mobilizing the various elemental forces he was sensing, and continuously integrating them into pure magic power.

The form of magic power is the chaos of the fusion of various elements. Due to the relationship between the elements, pure magic power can be transformed into any element at will.

A steady stream of magic power poured into the eggshell.

After a few minutes, Lowe's mental energy was completely exhausted and he simply lost power.

Lodel removed Lovi's hand and continued to pay attention to the movement of the dragon egg. After repeated throbbing, she realized that injecting magic power was indeed effective.

The next day, when the sky brightened.

On the training ground, just as Laudel had finished organizing the troops, Evelyn and Mossofie arrived.

"Lodel, don't train today. Come and help build the winery."

"Where do you want to build it?"

Evelin raised her hand and pointed to the woodland on the other side of the lake, about three hundred meters away from Fort Fulin in a straight line.

"That location doesn't seem very safe?" Lodel was suspicious. As an important source of income for the territory, the winery should be placed inside Fulin Castle or in the middle of the guard camp.

"Don't worry, I can sense that side." Evelyn said confidently.

Luo Deer still felt unsafe, "You will always be careless sometimes, do you want to reconsider it?"

"It's already been agreed that Zoe will arrange personnel to serve as a fixed defense force. In addition, I will also arrange patrol personnel appropriately. Doesn't that ice wolf like to run around everywhere? Let it patrol with the guards at night." Evelyn described the plan in detail.

Laudel agreed.

The guards showed great enthusiasm for building the winery.

I think it will be much more convenient for them to drink after the wine shop is built. No need to spend an hour going back and forth to the tavern in Donggang City! Maybe there will be an internal discount price . The whole morning, everyone was busy cleaning up the venue.

The workers at the stone workshop kept bringing in stones and stacking them neatly on the roadside.

The cost of crafting each stone slab is equivalent to one silver coin, not including the transportation cost.

It can be imagined that Fulinbao Jinlong's reserves are shrinking rapidly.

The project is expected to take two to three months. Of course, if it continues at the current pace, it may be basically completed in one month.

Evelin was not in a hurry and did not urge the progress. She just promised to treat everyone to a drink after the construction was completed.

Such a promise inspired everyone's enthusiasm for work.

At noon, the bell for dinner rang on time.

The guards dropped their work and ran towards the cafeteria.

Luo Wei has returned from Donggang City and is waiting for the cook to serve the food in the private restaurant.

Today, we have successfully integrated all the population data of towns and villages.

The current population of the territory is 193,657. The largest population in Donggang City has exceeded 50,000, followed by Donglin City with 47,000.

The increasing population has brought pressure on food production.

Fortunately, there are high-yield crops such as black potatoes and the abundance of the sea to make up for it. Fortunately, there is no food crisis that will cause people to starve to death.

However, it is urgent to increase the utilization rate of idle land and incorporate the floating population into the household registration system.

At the latest, before spring begins tomorrow.

It may even take several months in advance to facilitate preparations by local rulers. After lunch, there is a period of rest.

As usual, Lowe received some businessmen who came to him for business, as well as the subjects who asked for help.

As long as the weather is good, he would put a set of chairs at the entrance of Fulinbao and bask in the sun while letting Lanlan give him a back massage.

Lin Xia from the Squirrel Clan came over from the roadside, carrying a bamboo basket on her back. "My Lord, I got the bark you requested."

She bent down to put down the backpack, picked it up and placed it on Lovi's desk.

"Thank you for your hard work." Lovi rubbed the bark material with his fingers and nodded slightly.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"It's my honor to serve you." Lin Xia bowed gracefully, stretched out her claws and spread her palms, "Is this the yellow bean you are looking for?"

Lovey's expression changed, and he quickly picked up the beans and looked at them in front of his eyes.

"Yes, try to collect as many as you can."

"This kind of beans are actually sold in the market, but not everyone likes to eat them. The main reason is that eating them raw can cause diarrhea, and eating them cooked can cause flatulence. The taste is just so-so, and few people grow them," Lin Xia explained.

"That's because they won't eat it. Buy me a ton." Lowe put away his relaxed attitude.

"One ton? Do you need so many beans to feed the cows?" Lin Xia looked surprised.

"Soybeans are good things. I will encourage my subjects to plant more." Lovi carefully placed the beans in his palm, treating them as if they were treasures.

Lin Xia saw the importance in his eyes and said, "I understand. I will definitely try my best to help you acquire it."

Luo Wei took the bark out of the backpack, returned the basket to Lin Xia, and gave her a few silver dollars to facilitate her work.

Watched Lin Xia leave with the bamboo basket on her back.

Luo Wei asked Lan Lan to get another basket and put the bark in it. He also called two guards to bring shovels.

I dug a hole by the lake and led the water in. I poured the bark into the water and soaked it.

"Master, do you want to eat tree bark? My mother said that in the past, people would eat tree bark when they were extremely hungry." Lanlan blinked curiously.

This is certainly not food, Lowe smiled and said to the two guards without explaining.

"You better watch out, and don't let anyone touch my things."

"Yes!" the two responded.

Soon, the news of the Lord soaking the bark spread like wildfire. Lodel came over curiously to take a look, but didn't understand what Lovi was doing.

He took people to the city again in the afternoon.

"Do you have any water-permeable cloth here?" Lovey came to the clothing shop and stated his request.

The person in charge was stumped: "Water permeable? Do you mean water absorbing?"

"No, the requirement for water permeability is that water can leak out." Lowe asked the person in charge of the clothing shop to pick up a piece of silk and poured a little water from the bamboo tube into it.

The water hardly penetrated at all, and most of it slid down to the sides and spilled onto the ground.

"Water-permeable means that water keeps leaking out of the cloth."

"I understand, what you want is yarn?" said the person in charge of the clothing shop firmly.
