All the people around him retreated, and there was only Grand V in the huge study. His beard and hair were all white, and his face showed his age.

Wearing a red robe, he was lying on the bench, reading the letters on the table, recalling what Nalin and Heather had just said, and slowly closed his eyes, with thousands of thoughts in his mind.

He had a lot to say. If he were young, his dirty words could penetrate the thick stone walls and hit the ears of the guards.

However, he is no longer the straightforward young man he was when he first took the throne. Time has made him calmer.

When Grand V realized that being the leader of a country was not an honor but a heavy responsibility, impulse became a luxury.

The letter filled with information about Lu Yu that was supposed to disappear and was sent back by the Knights of the Stars in Kais City was miraculously found by the faint secretary.

Some things will disappear if you don't look for them.

Grand V wanted to call the guards outside the door to come in countless times to convey his will, but when the words came to his lips, his dry lips closed again.

There was a gentle knock on the door.

"Your Majesty, will the fruit plate be served tonight?"

"...bring it up."

Grand V, who was thinking too hard, sat up, looked at the cut orange, and took a bite. The juice was overflowing and the flesh was sweet. The sweetness and the aroma of the fruit seemed to be able to penetrate the heart and spleen.

Grand V, who was already exhausted, suddenly became energetic and called to the waiter who was about to leave.

"Why are the oranges so sweet today?"

As the king of a country, daily expenses are naturally the best.

Grand V also ate a lot of oranges. The oranges produced in several agricultural cities in the southwest of the empire were far less delicious than the one in front of him.

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten that the elf envoy brought many gifts two days ago, and this is one of them. Because it has to be inspected, your Majesty can only eat it now."

"I heard from the elf envoy that after the borders and trade are opened, these fruits will continue to flow into the Grand Empire. By then, the subjects of the Grand Empire will also be able to eat these delicious fruits. This is all your Majesty's achievement."

Grand V chuckled and said: "It has nothing to do with me. What we are here today is due to the contributions of the frontline soldiers... Countless people were buried in the forest to get where we are today."

After the waiter left, Grand V looked at the oranges in the fruit plate and fell into deep thought.

He has long heard that elves are very good at handling plants, and the large areas of land they occupy are also very suitable for growing various crops.

The same kind of fruit always seems to taste better when grown in the land of elves.

"Light, soil, rain, climate, fertilizer, selection and planting of varieties are all knowledge."

The answer Grand V received from the experienced fruit grower made him deeply feel that every line was like a mountain. He could only extract one piece of information from this sentence.

Different soils will produce different fruits.

Grand V's face darkened a little, then he chuckled and cut an orange himself.

"Preach my will and execute the secretary."

The knight who came to the door and listened to the order knelt down on one knee, not daring to raise his head. After realizing that His Majesty had no extra orders, he accepted the order and left.

"Cornwall, wake up. As a father, I have been giving you opportunities... You are a fruit that cannot grow completely in the soil of the aristocracy. Come and admit your mistakes to me, silly boy."

Only Grand V himself knew how much helplessness the sigh contained.

It’s not easy to be a king, nor is it easy to be a father.

After he grows old and returns to the embrace of Mother Earth, whether this country can continue to be strong depends entirely on the next successor.

This multiple-choice question is really difficult.

After the knight left, another waiter entered the study.

Grand V wrote an invitation letter himself and gave it to the waiter.

"Tone it more respectfully, do you understand?"

The waiter fell to the ground to take orders.

A suspected seventh-level magician, such a powerful person, no matter whether he has a bad feeling for the Grand Empire or not, in this critical period, it is best to put it where he can see it.

Even if his sincere invitation and the life of a clerk could not extinguish his anger, it was enough to satisfy him for the time being.

Lu Yu was actually quite happy at this time. Sigrid had really purchased the two materials Lulutis needed.

Red Riding Hood is the name of a jellyfish-shaped monster.

The skin of the red hat, as well as the toxin extracted from the tentacles, which can temporarily paralyze people's perception, can be used to make medicine.

After being satisfied, Lu Yu asked by the way why toxins were needed for medicine.

"Relieving the pain caused by the dragon's blood, the magic power rich in the dragon's blood rushes into your body. This experience is similar to when you were almost suffocated by Huo Gu's magic power."

"These toxins can temporarily trick your body so that the person who drinks the medicine will not feel too uncomfortable when absorbing it, making it impossible to absorb the medicine."

"As for the skin of Red Riding Hood, it is matched with other slime materials. You have also seen that there are many slime materials on this list. They all have the effect of strengthening the deformation..." Halfway through, Lulutis reacted,

She waved her tentacles repeatedly.

"Hey, even if I explain to you what this does, you won't understand."

Lu Yu cupped his hands to express his admiration.

At that moment, he had the feeling that there was a medical student standing in front of him, holding all kinds of messy medicines, reading the long and difficult to pronounce scientific names, and explaining the pharmacology to him.

Sigrid looked at the big white orange next to her, very confused.

There are two extremes when it comes to Mist Demon's speech. He can either pester you with a lot of talk at once, or he can keep silent for a long time and just play by himself quietly.

But when it comes to action, Sigrid has never seen her idle. Transformation is her normal state.

The mist demon has remained the same since she came back from shopping, which is very unlike her.

Lu Yu suppressed his laughter and patted Sigrid on the shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work. Please go out and buy some oranges."

As soon as these words came out, the mist demon became even more depressed.

The "big orange" squeezed into Sigrid's face and dangled. At this moment, the mist demon wanted to say "I want it too."

After buying the oranges, Lu Yu and the others ate them happily. While eating, they discussed how to decorate Lulutis' house with various crops in the future, and use crops to bury Lulutis' house during the harvest.

.

The mist demon took the peel peeled off by Lu Yu and others and sniffed it.

In fact, the fog demon's perception of smells is relatively weak, but probably because Lu Yu's description was too detailed, the fog demon became intoxicated just by smelling it.

"Look, I've already planned it."

Seeing Lu Yu take out the paper, Lulutis quickly came over.

"First of all, we need to find a place with a pleasant temperature and suitable lighting. This place cannot be infested with too many high-level monsters. Otherwise, even if we can cope with it, our fruit trees will suffer."

When fighting high-level monsters, just a few magic attacks may affect a large area. It doesn't matter if they are injured. It is bad luck if the fruit trees that finally bear fruit are affected.

Lulutis raised her tentacle, then quickly realized that she was in chat room mode, and immediately helped Lu Yu modify the details.

"As for high-level monsters, we have actually arranged the magic circle and continuously absorbed the magic power from the earth's veins and the air. In most cases, we are safe."

"Does this formation require very clever layout techniques?"

"Depending on the area you want to cover and the effect you want to produce, if Rabbit is willing to help me, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Sigrid on the side did not participate in the previous discussion of farming. Only when she heard the exchange between Lu Yu and Lulutis did she realize that the two were preparing for life after returning to Solon.

Sigrid has long been accustomed to the status of a servant, and now she doesn't think there is anything wrong with being a servant, not to mention that Lu Yu has basically no airs as his master.

She was still nervous when she signed the contract, but now she is extremely happy.

As a servant of Lu Yu, I have received a lot of teachings from Lulutis, and even obtained the extremely practical skill of "Hybrid Furnace". In the future, I still hope to follow them to experience more powerful power. This opportunity is placed in

In the past, Sigrid didn't dare to imagine it.

"Planting trees? I wonder what I can do to help?" Sigrid thought.

"Benlong is your good friend, isn't he? We can use the natural fertilizer he provides to compost the land first and improve the fertility of the land."

"After completing these preliminary work, I can experiment with summoning some summoned objects that can help us with mechanical work. Considering the efficiency issue, summoned objects may not be the best solution. We may need some puppets."

"You were so proficient in nesting puppet arrays for Andrew before, so you must know some relevant knowledge, right?"

Lulutis said: "I'm pretty good at making dolls. If it's just repetitive work, there's really no problem."

In this way, the boring mechanical labor can be omitted, and magic is really a good thing.

Lulutis' enthusiasm for discussion was also brought up by Lu Yu. After being awakened to the farming soul, Lulutis entered a new world.

In the past, she had only carved out her own area in the forest, planted some flowers and plants, and preserved some medicinal materials. She had never thought of taking further care of the surrounding area and turning it into her own manor.

Under Lu Yu's conception and layout, the outline of a large manor slowly took shape.

There is no need to constantly deal with outsiders. Once the manor is formed, you can completely play your own game.

According to Lu Yu's idea, since fruit trees have been planted, it is perfectly fine to open up some areas and plant some grains.

Since even grains have been grown, there will definitely be plenty of food, so it is reasonable to raise some chickens, ducks, fish, sheep, cows, pigs, etc., right?

Now that we have started breeding and grazing, it is normal to build the manor into a castle and maximize the defense attribute. After all, my family has a lot of grain and livestock. It would not be good if a few high-level monsters with malicious intentions come here.
