Author: Night Knight

Chapter 247 Manor Economy

Gavin ate Nicole to death, hitting her every itch. His interest was completely aroused and he said: "Mr. Gavin is Mr. Gavin. His ideas and knowledge are indeed beyond ordinary people. Yes, he designs new clothes."

The meaning is to make everyone accept it and like to wear it. Sir, can you help me collect various clothing materials and clothing styles in the material plane so that I can make reference and compare them, especially the materials used are very important."

"Even if you don't say it, I will do it, but if we want to really make a unique product, we have to develop new materials ourselves. For this matter, you can talk to Ms. Estelle and talk more with her.

You should have some experience in this area." When talking about work clothes, the first thing that comes to Gavin's mind is denim.

Also known as indigo labor cloth, this kind of cloth has withstood the test of history and is durable. Even in modern society, it is very popular.

I just don’t know if the canvas used by Faerun ships is also this kind of cloth. If so, it can be used directly.

"Okay, sir." Estelle on the side responded, "We have our own small textile room in the manor. Most of the clothes used in the manor are made by ourselves using the linen woven here, etc.

After a while, I will take the lady over to have a look."

Even though Estelle looked extremely calm on the surface, her heart was already in turmoil. She couldn't help but guess, what is the background of this young half-elf?

First came the tree people, then the high-level devils.

Now there are kobolds and pixies, and the animal companions they bring with them are unprecedented.

The green-haired, beautiful female mage didn't look like an ordinary elf, but more like the legendary eladrin.

Estelle had completely forgotten that they themselves were not normal existences.

So far, in the entire Vizeme Manor, only the human female priest and the half-elf manor owner are in the normal race category.

"Great, no need to wait for a while, let's go and have a look together." His main task now is to build the manor and restore as much as possible here, especially the self-sufficient part.

It just starts with food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Among them, clothing ranks first. After all, humans do not have the natural scales of kobolds, so they have relatively high requirements for clothing and labor protection supplies.

Estelle thought about it for a moment and said to the kobolds who had just been assigned to her: "Come together."

She was originally worried about the language barrier between the two parties, but judging from the other party's reaction, her worries were unnecessary.

Even if these ten kobolds can't speak Common Tongue, they can at least understand it.

Vizeme is the most typical manor in Faerûn. Although it is small, it has all the internal organs.

Not only does it have its own textile workshop and stables, it also has its own blacksmith workshop and carpenter workshop. In addition to the ten square kilometers of vineyards outside, it also has a large area of ​​grain farming land.

All in all, if you can solve the problem in the manor, you will never find someone elsewhere.

This is the estate economy.

Just like other places, the textile workshop is also covered with dust, but inside the house, the various tools are not in serious decay.

It doesn't even need to be completely repaired. After a dozen repairs, it will look brand new.

The weaving tool is the oldest manual type. Not only is it inefficient, but the cloth produced is also very rough, which is slightly better than the material used in sacks.

But something is better than nothing, and you can do it step by step when you have time.

Estelle knew this place very well and introduced the hand-woven textile process in a very clear and logical manner. No need to ask, she must be proficient in this area and has even done it herself.

It’s true that she is the lady of the manor, but that doesn’t mean that she is completely untouchable. On the contrary, she is the person who knows the most about technology in the entire manor.

Whether it's textiles, carpentry, repair, winemaking, etc., she understands and is proficient in the corresponding processes.

This situation is not unique to her, it is the same situation in most manors.

The manor owner is responsible for foreign trade and sales, and the manor wife is responsible for internal management. If there are children, their children are often the main grassroots managers and main technicians of the manor.

The manor economy is also called the family economy. Larger manors will use hired workers, while smaller manors will be entirely composed of family members or relatives.

Estelle just knows more and knows more than the ordinary manor lady.

This was determined by her special situation at the time.

She can only work hard to learn more knowledge and skills to make herself more indispensable in the manor.

Only then can she protect herself and her daughter.

She also has a share of the credit for the prosperity of the Vizeme Manor.

Estelle said regretfully: "It's a pity that we don't have raw materials such as cotton and linen, otherwise we would not be able to get this workshop up and running."

"It's simple. When I come back tomorrow, I'll bring some of it over. It's not too big or small, but it's not difficult to get together." Lord Virginia said at the side.

Fey also need cotton and linen, and they also have their own textiles. However, most fey are small in size, require a small amount, and do not plant much. Some collect part of it directly from the wild, which is enough for the entire village.

"Now it's mainly for experiments. A part of it will be enough. In the future, we will mass-produce it in a short period of time. We will first get it from those businessmen. After summer, we will open up a large area to grow hemp and cotton. They have relatively low land requirements.

.

Moreover, these instruments are too crude and there is still a lot of room for improvement. Even if they are not enchanted and activated in the future, they will have to be replaced with other driving forces." Gavin already had his own development plan in mind.

Even if we take the mechanized route, we cannot follow the script.

This is Faerûn, a world where magic is everywhere, and the best source of power is magic.

Not to mention anything else, the ballista and the ballista can be activated and become a magic crossbow that can load the crossbow automatically and walk automatically.

There is no reason why these textile machines cannot be activated and become automatic textile machines. Even if they are semi-automatic, their efficiency has increased.

Even if the activation cost is too high, other alternatives can be used. Even water is not the first choice in Gavin's eyes.

The first choice is enlightenment tree people or enlightenment trees like Broken Thorn, which do not require commission. After they take root, they do not delay the movement of the upper body. They work for ten days and only require two buckets of water and one bucket of dung. They are economical and affordable.

No pollution yet.

"Master, we discovered something unusual in the vineyard. I think it's best to come and take a look in person." The dog demon who originally went to summon the wild wolf's subordinates hurried back.

"What's unusual?" Gavin raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Yes." The dog demon nodded and said, "I think it has something to do with the fey. My origin is too special and I don't dare to get too close. Therefore, Lord Virginia had better come with me."

The dog demon did not become arrogant as its strength increased.

On the contrary, he was more respectful, careful, and faithful in carrying out the work than before, and made ideological work reports every now and then.

Everything is done with caution and for instructions. As long as you can ask for instructions, you will never make your own decisions.

Even if you cannot ask for instructions, you must carefully report the reasons and ideological work for your decision afterwards.

This is not done simply because of the improvement in EQ and IQ brought about by the improvement in attributes after evolution.

But he is very clear about the reason why he can grow so fast.

Moreover, he discovered that while he was growing fast, this master's growth speed was even more terrifying.

The professional level is obviously not high, but the combat power is frighteningly high. It feels like the abyss is as deep as the sea and is unfathomable.

I really can't think of a challenge.

To be more precise, following such a powerful and ambitious master is what every devil dreams of.

As the other party conquers and expands, they will have more opportunities to enhance their rights and obtain more souls. When both are available, their strength will naturally rise.

"Fey? Fey in the material world?" Lord Virginia immediately became more energetic upon hearing this, "Okay, let's go there together."

The main reason why she supported Gavin in exploring new territory in the material plane was that she wanted to hitch a ride and take the opportunity to contact and recruit more fey, but she didn't expect that she would have the opportunity to contact them so quickly.

"I want to go too." Nicole said hurriedly.

"Then let's come together!" Gavin nodded. If they really had to deal with fey, they would indeed have an advantage over him.

The dog demon roared, and a matching saddle appeared on its back.

After Ivinsa fell into a deep sleep, he borrowed the necklace of enlargement, and it is currently being used by the dog demon.

Its body shape has already become extremely large, and there is no need to activate the giant enlargement technique above.

Gavin still rides with the Virginia Lord, but as a reminder, Gavin is in front, Virginia Lord is behind, and Nicole is sitting on Gavin's shoulder.

Even with two people on his back, the dog demon's steps are still very light and fast. With his long body and long legs, even in the somewhat deserted vineyards of Vizeme Manor, he can still expose half of his body.

The grapes at Vizeme Manor are all grown from trees that are more than ten years old. The grapes are as thick as an adult's wrist and as thin as a baby's.

Because there was no one to take care of it, it overgrown a bit, with many plants entangled with each other, forming a grapevine cover.

In such a place, the dog demon has no way to get past it. It can only use the magic-like flash technique to jump over.

Soon they arrived at the unusual place that the dog demon said.

In ordinary places, there are at most three or five grapevines tangled together, forming a small grapevine cover covering an area of ​​several square meters, or even more than ten square meters.

There are tens of thousands of square meters of grapevines here, all intertwined together to form a huge grapevine cover.

The green grapes hanging on the vines are clustered at just the right distance, and the grapes are round and plump, without any sign of insect damage.

Under the grape vine cover, there are no weeds at all, but are filled with various mushrooms, shade-loving fruits and vegetables, horizontally and vertically.

There were five wild wolves lying not far from the giant grape vine, not sure whether they were alive or dead.

If you say that there is no one to take care of it, and it naturally looks like this, no one will believe it.

If one were to say that the giant grapevine cover had no magic or druid intervention, no one would believe it either.

No wonder, the dog demon asserted, there are fey infested here.

"You move away first. Don't come near me without my greeting." After jumping off his mount, Gavin ordered the dog demon.

No matter what kind of fey here they are, they definitely don't like evil creatures, especially devils with the aura of hell. If there are dog demons, they will definitely not show up easily.

In fact, the dog demon discovered this place first, and they came riding on it, which already made a bad start.

Especially when five of the dog demon's wild wolf subordinates have been knocked down.

"Follow your orders." The dog demon obviously knew this. After guessing that there might be fey here, he didn't dare to get too close. He didn't even care about the life and death of the five newly recruited subordinates, and immediately went back to report Gavin.

"You handled this matter very well." Gavin added a compliment.

I have to say that Dog Demon is one of the subordinates I use most easily.

If you need EQ, you need EQ, if you need IQ, you need IQ, and if you need ability, you also need ability.

Most of the tasks assigned to him are handled very clearly and there is no need to worry too much.

Although he was not given too much power, he was used more and more frequently.
