Chapter 61: The Origin of the Battle to Defend the Pants (Additional update, please read it!)

It rained yesterday and it cleared up today. Rand is supervising the sugar production. A lot of beets are planted in the farm, but the sugar production process is quite primitive. It is just a simple boiling, filtering and refining.

To make white sugar, you need to control the crystallization process, desalt and bleach it. If there are alchemists in the future, let them study these things.

Now only the most basic sugar-making technology is needed to ensure the supply of formulated fruit juice.

As adventurers gradually gained wealth from the ruins, they became more generous, and the blended juice finally sold well.

The ruins here have a total of ten floors, and each floor has a large space. Currently, these adventurers are still operating on the first floor, but knowing that the ruins have more than one floor has already made many adventurers excited.

This means that the wealth here will not be fully mined in a short period of time, and Rand does not collect any taxes on the output of the ruins. It only requires that the intelligence and records obtained must be sold to the hideout.

In fact, there is no need to collect taxes. The real source of wealth is to take advantage of the adventurers' food, clothing, housing and transportation. Rand, who was a modern man in his previous life, knows this aspect very well.

The danger of the ruins is not very serious, it is simply an adventurer's dream paradise.

You know, many adventurers either help nobles deliver things and find pets, or fight monsters in the wild such as goblins and demonized wild boars.

This kind of work is either extremely low-paying or extremely dangerous.

Even on adventure and treasure hunting missions, there is often no wealth to speak of.

Rand looked around the workshop for a while, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, he walked towards the lord's hall.

Because the den is illegal, trade with nearby noble territories cannot be carried out on a large scale. They can only arrange a small group of people to disguise themselves as nearby villagers to go to trade, and they are exploited or even robbed.

However, if Taner's results are good, the den will probably have a legal status to a certain extent in the near future, and will not need to be formally granted a noble title. As long as the Second Prince's faction regards the den's forces as their own, many things will become much more convenient.

Due to the recent war, Rand has not received any letter from Taner so far, and he is still very worried.

Today's lord's hall is a lord's longhouse expanded from the original sacrificial room. Above the entrance of the longhouse is a giant snake skull. When you enter the longhouse, you will see some decorations.

There are chandeliers on both sides of the long house, and a dark red carpet in the middle. At the end of the carpet is a stone chair, which looks like a throne.

However, Rand still felt a little uncomfortable sitting there, and there was no need for diplomacy at the moment, so he never sat there.

One side of the lord's longhouse is Rand's living area, and the other side is the office area. After continuous training, these office apprentices no longer hold back Ellie and Olenna.

Therefore, the two of them finally got rid of the situation of working without holidays all year round, and occasionally they could take half a day or a day off, but at this time they both still worked.

Ellie handled the documents skillfully and then piled them aside, waiting for Olenna to review them. If there were no problems, they would be approved directly. If there were any problems, Rand would make the decision.

Every once in a while, they would compile a briefing to let Rand know the development of the hideout during this period.

Ellie was wearing a bright yellow dress, which was probably bought from a tailor shop in the town managed by Taran. Although it was not as exquisite as her own clothes, it did not look rustic.

Seeing that Rand was just here to hang out instead of helping, Ellie didn't make room for him. She looked up at the busy clerk apprentice in the distance and whispered, "That Elsa seemed to say she wanted to take revenge on you?"

Rand nodded. "There's nothing to be afraid of. I have Lysa and Olenna watching over me. She can't do anything to me."

"She seems like a sensible person." Some time ago, when she forced Elsa to be an introducer to adventurers, she had some contact with Elsa and had a good opinion of this strange girl.

After thinking for a while, Ellie said strangely: "But she doesn't seem to be normal."

Rand continued to nod: "That is God's curse. The God's gift is too strong and has certain negative effects."

Ellie looked at Rand in confusion, wondering how Rand knew this information.

Rand did not explain either. Now he had discovered that as long as he did not explain, he would not have to explain the source of some intelligence. Everyone in the hideout, including Ellie and Olenna, trusted him very much.

"Will she come to steal your things?" Ellie continued to ask. Olena next to her also stopped processing documents and looked over here with her soft eyes.

Rand nodded. Maybe, but there was nothing valuable in the hideout. What was truly valuable were the people and buildings in the hideout, which could not be stolen.

"You must have pissed her off," Ellie said.

Rand always felt that there was something else behind Ellie's words.

Ellie did have something else in her words. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Tell me, is it possible that she came to steal your pants?"

Rand's heart skipped a beat and he hesitated, "That shouldn't be the case. The last time she stole the pants was probably an accident. I don't think she's a pervert, right?"

At least it's definitely better than Lisa.

"I think." Ellie cleared her throat and teased mischievously, "When people are anxious, they can do anything."

Rand wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, thinking that such a small thing would not force Elsa, who looked normal, to become a pervert who specialized in stealing people's underwear.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Elsa was very annoyed at this moment. Since she had found the golden tree seeds from the ruins, adventurers would come over from time to time to ask her for information about the ruins. No matter where she went, there were adventurers, which was almost annoying her to death.

Fortunately, the valuable treasure had already left her, and she herself was quite skilled, so no malicious adventurers came to trouble her.

But it’s still troublesome!

Elsa stayed in the hotel room with gritted teeth, planning her revenge on Rand.

What is very troublesome is that although Rand is cunning, insidious, despicable, shameless, has no bottom line, is greedy for money, and has a dark heart, he is still a good person.

At least under his rule, this Crescent Territory did not have the sense of despair that existed in other territories that had been caught up in wars. He was also very nice to adventurers. Although there were many charges, most of them were reasonable, and he had never raised prices based on demand.

If she hadn't been tricked, she would still have a very good impression of Rand. This trick could only mean that Rand saw through her kleptomania. In the final analysis, it was her own problem.

Therefore, she couldn't use many methods against Rand. If she wanted to take revenge on this bastard, she could only resort to some pranks to disgust him, and even these pranks couldn't really disturb his work.

Otherwise, she would feel bad if Crescent Moon Ridge and the holiday villa were shut down.

Now Elsa is in a dilemma, but it is impossible not to retaliate! Thanks to meeting Xie Shen, a small account of a weekly updater, don't talk, book friend 20240126162120835, book friend 20210815164528320, Fog City Dream Chaser 100 coins reward.
