Chapter 54 Actors, Scripts, and Stage

It is already autumn, and the autumn wind is blowing. The wheat planted in the spring is almost ripe and it is time to harvest.

Moreover, Rand's previous three-crop rotation experimental field can also test some of the experimental results.

It was morning, the sun had just risen from the horizon, and the air was still a little cool.

But after putting his pants back on, Rand no longer felt cold.

Rand detained Elsa, of course, not to let her operate the sewing machine. The main reason was that his current hideout didn't even have a prison. As for such a high-end machine as the sewing machine, Rand had no ability to develop it in a short time.

I can only say that the major is not suitable.

What he needs is actors.

Nowadays, the publicity of the White King has solved the problem of the ruins' popularity, but the degree of danger of the ruins and whether there are treasures in the ruins are still unknown. At this time, someone is urgently needed to act as a stand-in and publicize the treasures and knowledge beneath the ruins.

Thinking of this, Rand suddenly thought of a question and asked, "Miss Elsa, you are an adventurer, right?"

Elsa nodded, not understanding why.

"Have you heard of the White King's family relics?"

Elsa nodded again.

Rand breathed a sigh of relief, then said, "Come with me."

[Elsa Amberlette Gender: Female Ability: All-round Dexterity] (expandable)

Elsa didn't dare to have any opinions. After all, there was a top swordsman watching her, and if she didn't obey, she might really die.

Walking down from the hideout to the lower ground, you can see a large area of ​​houses, as well as a tavern, a blacksmith shop and a temporary medical clinic.

It looks like a small town. On the contrary, the hideout on higher ground looks like a small village.

Rand's design was to separate the hideout from the gathering place for adventurers. Outsiders were not allowed to enter the hideout normally. At least they had to be inspected before they could come to the sacrifice room of the hideout to meet him as the lord.

Otherwise, if the ritual objects of the Torch Church were brought along, the project that had just been launched might be aborted.

Following Rand, the thief girl, who was wearing a night tights and leather armor, looked around curiously. She knew that there was a relic promoted by the White King here, and she came here to take a look at the relic.

It seems that the White King's men are well prepared. Such a large-scale event does not seem to be an ordinary worthless or low-value relic.

I just don't know why the Frost Moon Kingdom didn't react to this. Did they reach some kind of agreement with the White King? It's a pity that she had a kleptomaniac and came here to steal from the lord. Now she's been caught. Otherwise, it would be very tempting to explore the ruins before others.

Walking to the Adventurer Resort underground, Rand said, "I want you to experience the facilities here and tell me what you think."

Of course, Rand would not ask at the beginning that they need to cooperate with him in acting, as this would only make people think that he is a liar. Anyway, as long as he does not go too far, it is very easy to control this kleptomaniac.

The reason why kleptomania is kleptomania is that you cannot resist the desire to steal with reason.

When kleptomania did not take over her mind, Elsa was still a very normal beautiful girl. She was also a very powerful thief. At least she could easily sneak up behind Rand before being discovered by Olenna. This was not something an ordinary thief could do.

After Rand took her to experience it, Elsa nodded in approval and said that this place was very comfortable to stay in.

The second to last place is the tavern, which currently only serves crude ale. When food becomes abundant, Rand can try to make distilled liquor.

But now the important thing is to promote Rand's blended juice.

Since the holiday villa has not been officially launched, the counter of the tavern is currently operated by Lisa.

After returning from scouting outside and tasting Rand's blended juice, she expressed her desire to learn how to make it.

Rand had no objection. Lysa had contributed a lot to the hideout, but in fact Rand had not given her anything in return except for some strange things.

There was no need to keep this matter secret from a core member of the den like her.

Ryza's body coordination was very good. The series of production processes were smooth and the clear juice was poured into a wooden cup and handed to Elsa: "Four silver coins."

Elsa felt that she was being ripped off. Four silver coins were not worth a small amount. In the Northern Union, a pound of bread cost four copper coins, and a knight's squire's daily wage was about 80 copper coins. In other words, even a knight's squire, which was already a very high-quality profession, had to work for five consecutive days to be able to afford a cup.

But although the price was too high, and I was invited to experience it, I had to pay. Was this Lord Rand the kind of person who was obsessed with money? However, this little money was not a big deal, and Elsa was still in the state of being guilty of attempted theft, so she still paid the coins honestly, then picked up the cup and took a sip.

Her eyes suddenly lit up. She had originally thought it was just some freshly squeezed juice, but it seemed to taste quite good. In her opinion, the four silver coins were well worth it.

After tasting the flavor, she was no longer very ladylike and drank the juice in big gulps. Her bold attitude was comparable to Rand's.

After drinking, she slammed the cup on the table: "Another one!"

Rand was not in a hurry. He thought it would be a waste not to make money. He waited until she had drunk her fill before taking her to continue the tour.

The last stop is the big bath, which is now fully operational. Such welfare will definitely be given to the believers first. Now that the food is good and they can wear warm clothes, they don't have to worry about catching a cold and getting sick from frequent bathing.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Elsa looked up at the huge brick and stone structure. She had noticed it when she came down from the hideout before, but she didn't expect it to be a bathhouse. This was the first time she had seen such a design.

It’s not that the kings or nobles couldn’t afford it, but many nobles did not believe in taking baths. Even if they liked to take baths, they would only enjoy it for themselves and would not build such a huge bathing center.

"Want to try it?" Rand asked.

Elsa looked at Rand and said unhappily, "Why is this so expensive again?"

Seeing Elsa taking the initiative, Rand smiled and said, "If it's a basic flush, it's 10 copper coins per person."

If you want to soak in the hot spring, it will cost 1 silver coin. If you want a private bathing room, it will cost 10 silver coins per person.

Elsa asked about the price and felt that the charge was reasonable. After all, such a huge project would require a lot of fuel to maintain hot water.

Nodding, Elsa expressed her desire to try it and handed a silver coin to the front desk of the bathhouse.

Soon she ran out of the bathhouse and gave 9 silver coins to the bathhouse management front desk. This world is really messed up. She didn't expect that 1 silver coin would mean taking a bath with Rand and Olenna. Olenna obviously didn't look like Rand's wife. Wouldn't she feel embarrassed?

Elsa also carefully confirmed that public baths were also divided into male and female areas, but the special bathing rooms did not seem to be subject to this restriction.

…

Tanner, a man with a black and brown collar, took the letter and saw that the messenger from the hideout had handed over an extra package. He opened it with confusion and saw that it was a large bag of crude sugar and spices, with a juice recipe attached.

Unfortunately, Taner didn't have the time to try it now.

The friction between the Second Prince's faction and the Third Prince's faction intensified, and local conflicts had already begun. Taner, under the order of the Black and Brown Count, confronted the Green Leaf Marquis's army here.

Thanks to Rand's military guide, Taner's military command ability was recognized by Count Black and Brown. Therefore, in addition to the 150 people in his mercenary group, Count Black and Brown also sent an additional 300 people to his command.

Unfortunately, things are not going well now. Rand's military guidelines cannot solve all problems. Since the number of people under his command has increased, various situations will always arise.

What's more serious is that Taner felt that Marquis Greenleaf could no longer sit still and the real conflict was about to begin.
