Having learned about the 'characteristics' of the wildly growing potatoes, the new potato field quickly became the knights' new 'happy base camp'.
Furthermore, the direction of this potato's mutation is truly amazing.
They were forced to turn digging potatoes into what they called "Minesweeper" from their past lives.
Because the 'starter' potato looks just like a regular potato.
When digging, the initial outer area is the easiest, and it's an endurance training exercise.
You've completed the task if you dig out potatoes weighing at least 30 pounds each.
The difficult part is what comes later.
The closer you get to the center of the potato, the more stimulating this training exercise becomes.
It not only trained everyone's reaction speed, but also incidentally cultivated the knights' forms.
In short, throughout the afternoon, there were frequent 'bangs' in the potato field.
Li Aili watched the knights digging potatoes for two hours straight.
One of the knights, named 'Elisaco', is the most powerful.
He unfortunately bumped into potatoes in the 'inner ring'.
But! Before the 'starter potato' explodes, it has a two-second expansion period.
In that brief moment, the knight decisively tore the potato in half and threw it into the air.
Thus, with this skill, he directly became the most outstanding person today—the potato bomb disposal expert.
After confirming that the potatoes in the potato field posed no threat to the knights.
Li Aili then returned to the temporary camp that had been set up in Campbell.
Before they left, the simple military tents were gone.
Instead, rows of small wooden houses with smoke rising from their chimneys have been erected.
Staying in a campsite made bathing inconvenient, which caused great discomfort for the women.
After the territory was built, everyone discussed it and immediately dismantled the tents and built small wooden houses instead.
At least you can boil water and cook a meal without having to go to the dark street.
Hearing the commotion outside, Joanna immediately came out. She must have been washing something, because she wiped her hands with her clothes as soon as she came out.
"Madam?! You're back?"
Ellie nodded.
“This is your house.” Joanna led Ellie to the largest wooden cabin.
This wooden house has two rooms, one inside and one outside.
"If you have any complaints, I'll have the goblins fix it right away," she asked cautiously.
Li Aili took a look and found it sufficient, and was very satisfied.
"Need not."
“The elves’ plans include castles.”
Although she hasn't yet made up her mind to build that enchanting crystal castle.
But there's no rush.
Joanna's cheeks flushed as she felt her decision was being recognized.
Li Aili said, "Get me some hot water, I want to take a bath."
"Wait a little longer for dinner. The Knights have gotten a lot of fresh potatoes."
"Also, construction of the territory has already begun. I'll call a meeting tonight."
Then, Joanna inadvertently noticed the badge pinned to Li Ai Li's shoulder.
My God!!!
When Joanna saw the Duke's medal, she almost screamed.
Everyone expected the lady to be granted a title, but most believed that reaching the rank of marquess would be the limit.
After all, Li Aili divorced that prince...
The specific reason is unknown to everyone.
However, given the current relationship between the two, no one believes that His Highness would grant such great power to his divorced wife.
After all, if it's called 'divorce compensation,' that 'expansion order' is already enough.
Oh my god!
The Duchess plus the 'Pioneering Order'—what does that even mean?!
Doesn't that mean that in the future, Madam... no, in the future, her Princess Ellie will conquer as much land as possible and possess such a large duchy?
Just thinking about it made Joanna feel dizzy.
Li Aili said helplessly, "Joanna, my hot water."
Finally, in a daze, Joanna used the Fire Magic Stone to prepare a tub of hot water for Li Ellie.
Yeah, the kind that bubbles up like a 'bubbling' sound.
Seeing that she was not suited for work, Li Aili told her to do something else.
She let the hot water cool down a bit before crawling inside.
Enveloped in the warm water, Li Aili sighed contentedly.
Once the territory's infrastructure is in place, she'll realize how many things she's currently lacking.
First, manpower is one aspect.
Secondly, rapid urban development is inseparable from economic and trade activities.
Trade is key.
If you want to do business, you need to decide on your main products.
After all, her neighbor, who was also her brother-in-law, was a ruthless man who had already run every business imaginable in the world.
Li Aili does not believe that she can compete with Tankar Elf in the market.
There's no need for that.
There are 360 professions, but there are always some that the Tankar elves won't do.
After taking a bath, it was just time for dinner.
Li Aili dried her hair, walked out of the cabin, and ate with everyone.
Please avoid meetings.
Tonight's dinner is roasted potato wedges, fried potato cakes, and roasted wild boar meat.
Li Aili saw the wild boar. "Huh? You guys went hunting?"
An eerie silence fell over the air.
When Li Aili looked up, she saw the fearful bubble above Thomason's head:
[This is terrifying! She just dumped the food she cooked into a hunting trap, and the pig was poisoned!]
Li Aili: "……………………"
Don't be angry, I'm not angry! (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
Li Aili asked, "What are everyone's thoughts on the future development of commerce in the territory?"
With its mouth stuffed full of food, the cow raised its hoof and exclaimed, "Alchemy shop!"
Li Aili nodded, "That's for sure, but besides alchemy, we also need to do some other business."
