After combing her hair, Lester tied a simple ponytail for the girl, then applied light pink magic lipstick on the girl's lips, and finally applied a little mage-specific skin care cream on the girl's face to make the girl feel a little more beautiful.
Rough skin becomes extremely hydrated...
Gray mist-colored pupils, small and straight nose bridge, alluring pink lips, energetic ears, slight curvature...
After finishing her makeup, Margaret stared blankly at the big-eyed blond beauty with her mouth half pursed in the bronze mirror, and pointed stupidly at the strange girl in the bronze mirror.
"This, is this me?"
After the words came out, the girl saw an incredible expression on the beauty in the bronze mirror.
"This is you, Margaret."
After putting Rose's cosmetics back to their original positions and ensuring that the rotation angle of the bottle caps was the same as before, Lester put the drawer on.
"You are a very beautiful girl, but you just don't pay attention to your grooming and maintenance. You have to believe in my vision, my general."
Standing up from the stool awkwardly, looking at herself in the mirror who had completely changed her race, Margaret's movements softened subconsciously, and she was no longer as careless and vigorous as before.
"Lord Leicester..."
Patting the girl on the shoulder, Lester smiled.
"My general, could you please accompany me on a tour of the southern mining area?"
"yes!"
After punching herself hard on the chest, Margaret realized that she was not wearing armor now. Fortunately, she didn't hit anything with this punch, only a slight pain.
"You don't have to salute me today. Just relax and treat yourself as an ordinary person, okay?"
"good……"
…
Before the Emerald Territory was established, the Mombians discovered a total of two natural mines in the Nokmoch Plains, one at the foot of the Urus Mountains in the north, and the other in the Shining Silver Mountains in the south.
After the Emerald Territory was established, the two mines were naturally inherited by the Emerald Territory.
Due to factors such as insufficient population, insufficient labor force, and war workshops being established in the south, the Emerald Territory chose to prioritize mining in the southern mining area located in the Shimmering Silver Mountains.
Every day, citizens of the Emerald Territory receive their mining tools and food from outside the mines, and mine minerals in mines reinforced with stone pillars or wooden beams by experienced miners and builders.
Under Leicester's order, miners' life safety was given top priority, so lighting oil lamps made of thermal insulation materials can be seen everywhere in the shallow mine tunnels.
Miners are also told that it is absolutely forbidden to mine minerals in unreinforced or unexplored areas, or to light open fires in the mine tunnels at will. Once discovered, the minor will be permanently deprived of the qualification to mine, and the serious will be expelled from Jade.
Those who cause harm to others will be directly imprisoned.
As for the deeper mines, without exploration and insufficient mining equipment, Leicester is not prepared to send people to mine. After all, the various minerals in the shallow mines alone are enough for the current Emerald Territory.
It has been developed for more than ten years.
In the end, the main problem of the Emerald Territory now is that there is not enough labor force. Supporting the refugees to join and encouraging the Territory residents to have more children are the most critical issues.
To this end, Lester is also working hard, but unfortunately for some reason, the stomachs of several women have not moved. It seems that the scale must be expanded.
Soon, Lester and Margaret arrived in a carriage to the southern mining area, the mining point designated as 'Mining Cave No. 1'.
"Lord Lord!"
The soldiers of the Noxian Black Iron Guard guarding the mine entrance saluted Lester, and then looked at the expressionless beautiful woman behind Lester with confusion.
Why does it feel familiar? Wait, is this strange woman threatening me? Why does my body feel so cold?
"Go and call the person in charge of the mine."
"yes!"
Withdrawing his doubtful gaze, the aggrieved soldier, who did not dare to speak or ask, turned around and ran away.
Soon, a smart middle-aged man with a mustache and rather well-dressed people trotted over, bowed to Lester, and spoke respectfully.
"Lord, are you going to inspect the mine today?"
"Blister, take me to the latest stable point of the mine."
"Okay, Lord."
Passing through the large mineral material warehouse built next to the mine, and nodding to the soldiers guarding the warehouse, the three of them walked into the dark mine.
The torch at the entrance of the cave was burning brightly, and the mine tunnel visible to the naked eye began to become wide and complex. The wooden beams were supported on the roof of the cave, and there were many traces of pickaxes and hoes around it.
The three of them walked deeper into the mine.
"Tell me about recent mineral production."
"Mainly iron ore, supplemented by copper ore and tin ore. Under the order of your lord, the silver mine in the depths has not yet been mined. The daily output of iron ore is about 3.4 units (one unit is equivalent to ten adult men,
The output of a normal day's work in a rich ore area), 1.8 units of copper mines, 1.3 units of tin mines,
After meeting the smelting needs at the War Workshop, there are currently 125 units of iron ore, 95 units of copper ore, tin ore and other ores (including quartz, sulfur ore, mica, pyroxene, etc.) in the mineral warehouse.
120 units.”
"There haven't been any accidents recently, right?"
"...Lord, there is no big problem. It's just that a middle-aged miner named "Gut" did not come back from the third branch of the mine tunnel last night. He seems to have disappeared.
Yesterday, I organized people to search in the mine tunnel of the third branch, but unfortunately they were not found. The search team is still looking for the missing Gut."
"disappeared?"
While talking, the three of them had arrived at the middle work area.
Dozens of miners were divided into different areas in the form of teams. Under the light of the oil lamp, they used their pickaxes and hammers to pound hard stones.
Most of the broken stones are ordinary stones, and a small amount of hematite containing red "spots" was picked up by the miners and placed in the wooden basket next to them. After filling the basket, or after working hours
, the miners will leave with their baskets on their backs and deliver the ore to the mineral material warehouse.
From the perspective of Lester, who is used to seeing modern large-scale industrial mining machines, this kind of work efficiency is appallingly low. However, judging from the current mining technology of the Emerald Territory, this is already considered very efficient, unless a mage is allowed to use it.
Magical magic to mine, but it's impossible.
"Lord, I think this is not a big problem. After all, miners have been lost before. In the end, they got lost and were successfully found by the search team... Go ahead two more forked roads.
We have arrived at the latest support point, which is also the third branch of the mine road where Gut disappeared, and the road conditions are extremely complicated."
Thank you to the readers of [Love Nightmare] for your monthly support, and thank you for your recommendation support. Are there many readers who are reading books recently? It feels like there are suddenly fewer people today, and Hongye is a little panicked.
