"No, no, please Sigrid-sama... If you are so rough, my legs... ow ow ow~~"
Qie Ye's four legs grabbed Sigrid's edge and formed a tug of war.
"Today is a group activity. Your alchemy research is not like that of the craftsman group. You can count the number of times you have been out in Chenxi for so long. Even Herola can take the initiative to participate in the activity. How can you
How can you be so homely?"
Sigrid used the word she learned from Lu Yu, which was subtle. Qie Ye understood it, and he shook his head desperately with a pale face.
"But I...ah!"
It was clear that there was no chance of winning in Cutting Leaf with all his strength. He was suddenly pulled by Sigrid, and he immediately left the goalpost that could protect him at the end. Then Sigrid carried him directly on his shoulders and walked out. In this scene,
Herola, who was waiting not far away, felt... Sigrid looked like a ruthless bandit who was robbing homes.
Herola had known for a long time that Chenxi had brought a little spider with a social disorder that was many times worse than hers. There were only a handful of people who could set foot in his alchemy workshop. The way people in Chenxi dealt with him was to package needs and materials.
In front of the alchemy workshop, slime will be delivered to your door after a while.
Taking the two of them to the orchard, Sigrid divided them into groups, found a forest elf to teach her, and then hurried to the warehouse - she was always busy, and if Lulu hadn't proposed to let her
Even if Qie Ye, who was so closed that he had no chance to socialize, could breathe some fresh air, she wouldn't suddenly come to the door.
Fortunately for Herola, although she still lives in a cave in the Dawn Territory, the cave that was leveled with the help of the craftsman team is far more comfortable than the result of her own efforts, and she has become accustomed to the life in the Dawn Territory.
Her psychological pressure was greatly relieved because she no longer needed to flatter herself for a living. After becoming familiar with the members of the summoning group, her crypt has become a good place for the summoning group to cool off in the summer. During the hot day, they often
Gather in the cave to study summons and exchange experiences.
Although she still feels nervous when talking to people she doesn't know well, she is much more comfortable now than she was in Selkalo.
"Are you OK?"
The movement of cutting leaves and picking fruits was slow and leisurely, and the movement around him would make him look up and around, and then he quickly looked away, not daring to make eye contact with the visitor.
"It's okay..." Qie Ye replied tremblingly.
Seeing Qie Ye's reaction, Herola decided to talk about something to divert his attention: "I heard that you dig a hole in the ground and live in seclusion alone?"
"Also...you, you too?" Although he was a little nervous, Qieye's head turned quickly.
"Oh, haven't you heard of me?" Herola smiled and picked an apple, wiped it, opened her mouth and ate it, "I heard about you from Teacher Lu Yu, the variant of living in a crypt.
The spider, relying on slime juice, lichen, and purified elements to survive, the alchemist master discovered the magic plague and deduced the formula of the medicine that can make it appear."
Herola added: "This is the first time I have seen someone who can live in more difficult conditions than me... You are too awesome."
The first part was just an ordinary description, but the second half made Kiriye blush. He waved his hands repeatedly and decided not to talk about seclusion, saying: "No, no, it's just that I don't have the strength to do better. And the lord has given too much praise.
, I only mastered very ordinary alchemy skills, and the magic plague was just an accident... In short, I am not good, and there are many alchemists in Mera who are better than me."
"But they are not in the Dawn Territory. You are the strongest alchemist in our Dawn Territory." Herola blinked.
Qie Ye was stunned, and for a moment he didn't know what to say. He received a reward from heaven - a ripe apple fell from the branch under a gust of wind and hit him on the head.
Herola picked up the apple, called out a water element to wipe it clean, and handed it to Qie Ye: "Although saying this seems to be bragging, I believe that the teacher can take a fancy to it and bring it back to the Dawn Leader."
Everyone has something extraordinary, or their character has passed the test. Maybe you are not the strongest, but you must be the most suitable alchemist for the Dawn Leader in the teacher's mind. There is no need to be so unsure."
Kiriye was stunned. He slowly raised his head and stared at Herola. This was the first long conversation he had with someone he had known in a long time. Surprisingly... there was no jam and it was still smooth?
"Herola."
The shouts in the distance made Herola apologize to Qieye and run over quickly.
Dawan, Xiao An, and Manta surrounded Lu Yu, quickly cleaning the fruits on and under the trees, while Lulu and Sera were enjoying their leisure time, talking and laughing.
When she got closer, Herola discovered that the teacher's large bowl had become a tool for carrying fruits. The bowl was divided into many small squares for storage to prevent the fruits from being squeezed too hard and causing them to be crushed before being put into storage.
Xiao An's tentacles can handle the hard-to-harvest fruits very well on the top of the tree. She has changed from her previous lazy and slow movement style. Now she moves very quickly. The manta ray assisting with the wind blade can't help.
Since I was busy, I could only cut the branches and save them for the barbecue on the night of the celebration.
"Teacher, hello, ladies and gentlemen." Herola said hello with a smile.
Sera covered her forehead: "Herola, I have told you many times that you shouldn't call her that. It's okay to call her by her first name."
The corners of Lulu's mouth raised: "I think...it's okay?"
"Lulu!"
Lu Yu patted the big bowl. The big bowl tilted his body slightly, allowing the owner to easily get the desired fruit from the bowl.
A bunch of longan was stuffed into Herola's hand. Looking at Qie Ye who was shivering in the distance and working hard, Lu Yu smiled bitterly and took two more bunches.
It was not just Lulu's idea to forcibly drag Qie Ye out. Sera and Lu Yu also agreed with this approach. Although it did not take into account her actual situation, it was necessary.
In the process of cooperating with Qie Ye, Yu Cao discovered that he clearly had many fantastic ideas, but he denied himself because of his lack of confidence. If these ideas were just unreasonable and unrealistic, Yu Cao would be fine with them, but the problem was,
Cutting leaves inadvertently helps solve problems that plague craftsmen who specialize in materials science.
"I need him to have confidence. He is far better than he thought, but he keeps denying himself." Yucao said, "I need better Qianye to cooperate with me, he can do better."
The craftsman group has very high authority, and Yucao's request received an immediate response from Lu Yu.
If he wanted to make Qie Ye confident, he had to affirm his ability. For this reason, Lu Yu specially found Herola. After all, she had similar symptoms and her words were more convincing.
"Qie Ye actually hopes to be recognized. At least when I praise him, he will feel happy and excited." Herola said, "Just like teacher, you praise my abilities, no one will hate others praising him."
"I know this feeling, like...a moment?" Lulu suddenly gave a high-five.
Suddenly, she appeared, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Don't mention this, don't mention this!"
Some memories will emerge as soon as the key words are touched, such as the famous "praise me" for a moment.
To this day, whenever she appears in the Dawn Territory, there will still be people praising her without hesitation, which makes her always come and go.
If she could change history, she must go back to that day and knock herself out when she was about to speak.
The joy of a good harvest can make people lose track of time. If the sun hadn't set and the White Wolf ice drink vendor running around reminded Lu Yu that it was time to go home for dinner, the three of them would have continued to enjoy this rare leisure time in the orchard.
After sitting on the White Wolf for a long time, Lu Yu patted her on the back gently: "Let's go to the warehouse. Sigrid must be crazy busy."
It was indeed crazy busy. On the first day of autumn harvest, the work pressure of the members of the logistics team increased sharply. Even with Sigrid's on-site dispatch, the logistics team was still in a hurry.
Counting is the most important thing. Along the way with Lu Yu, she was always forced to make currency conversions. Sigrid, who has developed a good moral character of being diligent, thrifty and housekeeper, is very sensitive to numbers. It is the first time she has to deal with the logistics of warehousing large quantities of goods.
The group was busy weighing.
"very busy."
Seeing Lu Yu, Sigrid sighed: "We have temporarily classified them and stored different crops in different warehouses, but there should still be some groups that make mistakes, so we can only let the logistics team slowly sort them out.
"
Sigrid raised the form in her hand: "You must be here to see today's harvest. I can understand it. Seeing those numbers getting bigger as the logistics team calculates them bit by bit, it really makes people feel comfortable."
On the table, the crop with the most shipments today is potatoes.
The people in the farming team didn't take care of the potatoes very much. They just found a piece of relatively cheap land to bury them in. The care they took was not surprising, but the output was still amazing. According to Sigrid's estimate in the table,
The potatoes produced this year are enough to feed Chenxi’s nearly two thousand people (if jellyfish can be counted in this unit) for most of the year.
Olga from the agricultural team also accompanied the warehouse. After seeing Sigrid use mathematics to calculate the total amount of potatoes that could be stored in the warehouse, she was stunned because she was the one who proposed the variety of potatoes. She did not expect Chen Xi at all.
The potatoes were able to grow so well in those wastelands that Sigrid needed to think about building a new warehouse.
Sierra asked curiously: "How many have you planted?"
"Just... a few hills. Those places used to be areas where monsters were rampant. After the people from the agricultural team planted them, they only occasionally went there to take care of them. Many potatoes were dug out and gnawed by monsters before they were ripe, but
Still... it’s amazing. I didn’t plant any crops in the past two years, so I had no idea that the land in Dawn Territory was so fertile.”
On several mountain tops, the mountains within the Dawn Territory were not hills, but mountains that had experienced ups and downs after natural disasters. Lu Yu imagined the sowing style of this group of people, and then thought about the strengthening of the plants due to the explosion of magic power... Okay
Guys, if the monsters didn't ruin the potatoes, they could at least have a full meal of potatoes for a whole year?
The good news is that potatoes are shelf-stable. Another good news is that there are a lot of cooking methods for potatoes, so no matter how you cook them, they won’t taste bad or get boring.
"Notify the kitchen that we will start thinking about the potato menu today and make a few French fries as snacks for those who will be working today." Lu Yu immediately ordered.
Mu Du, who followed closely beside him, immediately entered the role of secretary and picked up the statue to convey the message.
Sigrid sighed: "Although I can understand it, you really planted too much..."
Olga rubbed her head in embarrassment and whispered: "After all, we have been hungry... When we were adventurers, due to failed hunting, the four of us also ate dirt and bitten monster skins to satisfy our hunger. The taste... most people don't know
I would like to experience it. From then on, we swore that we would always be full, even if we died in battle, we would not starve to death."
In order to take care of the eating habits of different ethnic groups in Chenxi, the agricultural team grows many varieties of wheat and rice, striving to ensure that everyone can eat a suitable staple food. This is why potatoes can occupy the top spot on the estimated crop storage list.
main reason.
Olga said: "We purchased a large amount of staple food through the Port of Demorris long before there were signs of drought. Coupled with today's bumper harvest, the staple food excluding potatoes is enough for us to eat for more than three years, uh,
The calculations of our agricultural team are generally based on wealth. If we eat hard, even if there is a huge natural disaster starting tomorrow and the land in the Dawn Territory cannot be planted, we can still survive for five to six years."
Not only Lu Yu has been emphasizing preparation for rainy days, but the agricultural team has also been doing the same.
The natural disaster in the first year of the magic tide was too shocking. The mountains and rivers changed color in an instant. The huge red flame mountains were instantly cut off from each other by the bulging peaks. The molten mountains are still in ruins. The majestic power of heaven is still in front of you. People from all over the world
The Chenxi leader who gathered together with the wandering people was inevitably worried. They were afraid that their rare home would fall apart due to a food shortage, and they didn't want the lords to worry too much. The agricultural team had been working hard to plant and purchase during the two years of being self-sufficient.
Staple food.
What is even more unacceptable to them than dying of misfortune is dying of hunger.
Olga and Judith were ordinary people before they became adventurers. When they had no way out, they chose to become adventurers and exchanged their physical strength and lives for a ration. Even after becoming slightly more powerful mercenaries, they considered
It is still not about stability, but about having a good meal as long as you can.
There are many adventurers who have this mentality. They are really hungry and scared.
Hunger is the most terrifying feeling in the world, and it is also the easiest feeling to lose human dignity.
As powerful as a turbid nightmare, it was unbearable to go without food for several days. In the end, he chose to exchange physical labor for better meals, let alone ordinary people.
Lu Yu rarely asked about the affairs of the farming team. He always believed that professional things should be done by professional people, and the performance of Olga and Judith during this period convinced him that these two people were born to be
Do this.
Among the estimated output of fruits, the highest one is not longan, but a treasured fruit that now makes Mera nobles crazy - watermelon.
Ever since she tasted the benefits of selling watermelons, Judith doubled the number of watermelons she planted in order to exchange for more magic crystals. She had already made up her mind to make a fortune from the blood-sucking nobles.
Anyway, the current watermelon cannot deceive the poor.
I went out for a day with my parents and will resume double updates tomorrow (typos corrected), leopard roll, by the way, someone in the chapter asked where seals are from... You can eat all you want longan, which is of course Gui family, our fruit
