Chapter 243 Harvest

The wheat seeds sown in spring are now mature, and the golden wheat waves are swaying in the wind. There is a scene of harvest everywhere.

Farmers and serfs were busy harvesting wheat in the fields, and the next week was harvest time.

After the harvest is completed, Owen will have to go through statistics from the newly established Ministry of Agriculture to know how this year's harvest will be.

However, seeing the joyful faces on the farmers’ faces, I guess the harvest must have greatly exceeded expectations.

A female elf with pointed ears stood on the edge of a certain wheat field, quietly watching the waves of wheat in front of her, and she suddenly felt much more relaxed.

"Miss Ellie Renee?" A female voice suddenly came from behind.

Turning her head warily, Elle Renee saw a middle-aged human woman holding farm tools and wearing shabby clothes. She looked familiar, as if she was the wife of a serf.

"It's really you! What are you doing here?"

The other party didn't mean any harm, he was just too nervous.

Ellie Renee put away her vigilant eyes and replied: "Nothing, I'm just standing here blowing the wind and looking at the mature wheat in the field."

"So this is ah."

The serf's wife nodded, and then said: "Miss Elle Renee, thank you so much for allowing the wheat we planted to mature smoothly this autumn, and we have a good harvest."

"This is my duty, no need to thank you." Ellie Renee said.

"Then I still have to thank you..."

After thanking her several times, the serf's wife said goodbye to Elle Renee and walked towards the fields in the distance.

Because of the good harvest, the serf's wife was in a good mood. After all, the lord had promised to give all serfs a chance to get rid of their slave status.

Even if they miss it this year, their family will definitely be able to obtain free citizenship next year.

Watching the other party gradually walk away, Elle Renee let out a breath. She was not used to dealing with human passion.

In the final analysis, Elle Renee's job in Border Guard Town is just to transfer her magic power to the fields to promote the growth of crops.

In fact, all elves have this ability. There are many people who are stronger than Ellerene, but she is at the bottom.

As a result, Ellie Renee was respected by many farmers here, and her reputation was second only to the lord.

"Oh? Isn't this Ellie Renee?"

On the way back to the castle, Owen happened to meet this female elf.

"Lord Eisen."

Ellie Renee turned around and bowed respectfully.

Stopping for a moment, Owen looked at the wheat field in front of him and thanked: "Bianzhu Town has such a bumper harvest this year, all thanks to your ability."

When most of the serfs were sent to Bianzhu Town to cultivate land, they had already missed the opportunity for spring sowing.

Fortunately, Ellie Renee can promote the growth of crops, so that the wheat that missed the sowing time can mature smoothly this autumn.

The disadvantages are not without, it will over-deplete the fertility of the land, and the yield will be significantly reduced if normal farming is done next year.

Irving is not very worried about this. He can just use fermented fertilizer to replenish the fertility. The public toilets in the town were not built in vain.

Speaking of which, the elves have a very high affinity with plants, so the elves are very powerful in the forest.

Of course, it is not that there are no countermeasures. Humans have long discovered that as long as large areas of forest are cut down and the help of plants is lost, the strength of the elves will be greatly reduced.

As a result, the current area of ​​Venola Forest is less than half of its peak, and more than half of the forest has been cut down by humans.

If this move hadn't angered the Silver Dragon King who lives in this forest, humans might have cut down the entire Venola Forest, and the elves would have been enslaved or even exterminated.

"I dare not take it seriously." Elle Renee said modestly.

After a moment of silence, Owen asked: "Ellie Renee, you have lived in Bianzhu Town for a while, what do you think of it here?"

“It’s very reassuring, Bianzhu Town is a good place.”

Ellie Renee commented: "What's more important is that the human and demihuman races here can really live in harmony. Lord Aisen, you really didn't lie to me."

"Of course." Owen smiled, "Border Town is just the beginning. I plan to make the entire Dawn Kingdom achieve the goal of friendly coexistence of human and demihuman races."

"That's really an ambitious goal." Elle Renee said slightly surprised.

After a pause, she added: "However, if it is Lord Aisen, maybe one day it can be realized."

"Thank you for your trust."

Owen smiled and then extended an invitation: "Since you think Bianzhu Town is a good place, how about staying there for a long time?"

If the elves have this convenient ability, if they want to plant certain plants on a large scale in the future, they can shorten the planting time and the survival rate will be very high.

Hearing this, Elle Reni was silent for a long time, seeming to be thinking seriously.

After a while, she still shook her head and refused: "No, I still want to go back to Venola Forest."

Elle Reni is still a little excited about living in Border Guard Town. After all, this place is really nice.

A few days ago, a young man who worked in the city hall expressed his love to her and asked her to date him. He did not dislike her past experiences.

But it was the previous tragic experience that made Ellie Renee full of resistance to all men (not limited to humans), so she declined.

"Really? That's such a pity." Owen said with some disappointment.

Elle Renee naturally knew the reason why Owen retained her, and said: "If you want to use the power of our elves, if you have the opportunity in the future, you can try to seek cooperation with our queen."

"Your elf queen?"

Owen reached out and touched his chin, and said solemnly: "The current relationship between humans and elves is probably very difficult."

Not to mention how many forests humans have destroyed before and crazily suppressed the elves.

Even now, humans are still catching and selling female elves on a large scale, resulting in a very serious male-to-female ratio and loss of population in the Venora Council.

Therefore, the relationship between the Venora Council and human countries is extremely poor.

"It is indeed difficult." Elle Renee did not deny it. "After I go back, I will recommend Marquis Aisen to the Queen and make you one of the few trustworthy humans."

"Oh? Can you talk to the Elf Queen?" Owen looked surprised and turned to look over.

Is it possible that Elle Renee has a high status in the Council of Venora?

To be honest, Owen has no idea about the system implemented in this elf country, how the queen governs the country, etc.

After all, the Elf Country is at the western end of the continent and has little connection with the Kingdom of Dawn, and there are very few books about the Elf Tribe.

"No." Elle Renee shook her head, "But I know an elder who can advise the Queen."

"Then it's up to you."
