After listening to Lawrence's request, the paladin who had a lot of field experience before immediately grabbed a large beer jug filled with beer and walked over to the centaurs, and then started chatting with them at the bar.
.Only seven or eight minutes later, the centaur who seemed to be the leader came over with another younger subordinate.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. August. I am Gray Mane, the owner of Gray Mane Farm." The leading gray horseman came over and stretched out a hand and said to Lawrence. "Listen.
You are said to be the scholar who proposed the theory of disinfection. Thanks to your theory, the survival rate of our animals after giving birth is much higher than before."
Disinfection theory can not only be used for infection problems in humans, but animals are no exception. According to the information Lawrence got from his own pastures, after paying attention to cleaning and disinfection, the survival rate of those lambs and calves was worse than before.
It is much larger when it is dirty, which is very helpful for animal reproduction.
"Yes, I did put forward the theory of disinfection." Lawrence nodded and admitted, and then said humbly. "It's just that when I published the paper, I only put forward a point of view based on human infection, and then slowly
We are experimenting with applying a series of knowledge about infection and disinfection to other things. People like you who are able to learn and apply it are entirely because of your intelligence. The knowledge I proposed does not play a big role in it."
"Ah, scholars with their minds full of knowledge like you are always so humble." After listening to Lawrence's words, the centaur did not show any sign of looking down on Lawrence, but instead seemed more enthusiastic. "The feeling you give me is the same as ours.
The great shaman over there gives me the same feeling, they all have wisdom as profound as the ocean."
After chatting enthusiastically with the horseman for a while, Lawrence inadvertently asked about this year's harvest on the grassland under the guise of needing to investigate some information. After hearing Lawrence's inquiry, the horseman named Gray Mane thought carefully and then turned to the man behind him.
A horseman asked, "Iron Leaf, did you find anything wrong in the north?"
"It feels like there is no difference compared to previous years." The centaur frowned and scratched his head and said, "Although there was a little less rain this year, it did not affect the growth of the pasture.
.At least this year’s cheese and your live cattle shipments are not much different from previous years.”
"It's the same here." After the black centaur called Iron Leaf finished speaking, Gray Mane said to Lawrence. "The overall situation is not much different from previous years. Although there is a little less rain, it is still normal.
Within the range. It can be said that this year should be a fairly passable year.”
After finishing speaking, Gray Mane hesitated and asked Lawrence. "Mr. August, are you doing this investigation because something happened there? If you have any special findings, please tell me as much as possible. This will help
So that we can be as prepared as possible in this regard.”
"Actually, when I came here, I heard that serious pests and diseases broke out in the cotton fields on the plains near Heraklion, so I was worried whether this year's climate would be more suitable for the growth of those pests." Lawrence thought for a moment and then faced the centaurs in front of him.
He said, "Now that I hear what you say, I feel relieved. It seems that the situation on your grassland should be okay."
After all, when those people from the Church of Fortune went out to help on the farm, they attracted the attention of everyone in the city of Heraklion. With their habits, when they went out, they naturally attracted the attention of everyone in the city with their shining golden light.
.So it seems very reasonable for Lawrence to use similar excuses to ask the horse people about pests and diseases at this time.
"Ah, is the situation over there already so bad?" After hearing what Lawrence said, the two centaurs in front of them all looked nervous. "This time we went to the city to buy some cloth in addition to selling cattle. Now
Have such problems affected the price of cloth in urban areas?"
"At least not when I came out." Lawrence comforted the two centaurs, "Because although those pests and diseases may have supernatural forces behind them, but as far as I know, they have not affected this season's cotton harvest. So now the market
The prices of all cotton or cotton products on the Internet do not fluctuate much."
"Ah, that would be great. In the name of the ancestors, I hope that the crisis of pests and diseases in the cotton fields will pass quickly." After hearing what Lawrence said, the expressions of the two centaurs relaxed a lot. Then Gray Mane said to Lawrence
Said, "Our observations are relatively rough. As long as the changes in the insects on the grassland are not too severe, we often will not observe them. However, the Great Shaman will have more detailed records in this regard. If you want to know about this situation,
You can ask him."
After finishing speaking, Gray Mane told Lawrence the current location of the Great Shaman, and then everyone chatted for more than half an hour before they dispersed to rest. After leaving the lobby of the tavern, Lawrence ordered the man next to him who was disguised as the security captain.
The Paladin of the Church of Fortune informed everyone to slightly change the route the day after tomorrow and detour an extra five or six kilometers to visit the great shaman.
"Why do we need to take a long detour?" the paladin of the Church of Fortune asked with some confusion. "Sir, this is not questioning you. But I think it is best for us to rush to the location of the source of the pollution as quickly as possible.
, and then solve the problems there instead of wasting too much time on minutiae.”
"A detail? No, this is not a detail." Lawrence looked at the paladin and said, he was not surprised why the paladin would put forward such a point of view. After all, the armed forces under the Goddess of Wealth Church have always tended to rely on outstanding talents.
The equipment directly hits the enemy's face head-on, so it is understandable that he is not satisfied with his current detour approach.
"First of all, we are pretending to be a scientific expedition team this time. It would be a bit strange to go straight to the location of the pollution source." Lawrence explained carefully, although as the leader of the team, Lawrence can directly report to the team members
They gave orders, but he felt that it would be better to explain many things clearly to this improvised team. "In order to disguise, it is necessary to take a slight detour and waste some time."
"Secondly, we are all outsiders in this land, so we don't know many things clearly. When we encounter any danger, it can easily cause unnecessary problems or even casualties. If we can ask the friendly locals in advance
Even if extraordinary people get their help, these can actually be avoided."
"Last and most important point." Lawrence looked at the paladin seriously and said. "The range of activities of these centaurs is much larger than that of us humans. According to what the centaurs just said, they will often enter
Some herbs or specialties are collected on the edge of the Death Gobi for use by witch doctors or shamans. So their shamans must have enough samples for us to conduct detailed inspections."
"Please forgive me for my recklessness just now." After listening to Lawrence's explanation, the paladin thought about it and apologized to him very seriously. "I did not think carefully about this before, and I will follow it completely.
Execute your order." After saying this, he walked towards the team without waiting for Lawrence to say anything, and seemed ready to inform the team of the upcoming change of itinerary.
After saying goodbye to Gray Mane and the others early the next morning, Lawrence and the others continued their journey westward. After spending a day passing through the valley, Lawrence and the others saw a land as graceful as the sea under the flaming red sunset.
It is an ordinary flat grassland, with several small streams flowing out of the mountains like silver ribbons flowing quietly, nourishing this grassland.
"Let's go over there first." After looking at the scenery outside the mountain pass, Lawrence pointed to the west and said, "Now let's go visit the shaman together. I hope we can get enough from her.
The news creates better opportunities for our subsequent actions.”
"Okay!" "No problem." Voices of support came from the crowd. Because the specific situation was explained clearly yesterday, everyone is more supportive of the change in today's itinerary. More importantly, everyone hopes to rest in the settlement.
It was not about resting in the wild. Soon, everyone got on their camels and drove towards the settlement that was smoking.
