Chapter 293 A solid interior

Another seven or eight days passed, but the outgoing team still did not come back.

Lawrence felt a little uneasy and would go out to the beach every morning to take a look.

Sariel followed Lawrence to the beach early in the morning, looking at the vast sea and the steep cliffs in the distance.

"Lawrence, let's go back and play cards."

Lawrence walked along the messy beach, where there were sea vegetables and shells washed up by the sea, as well as many dead fish.

People from the nearby Water City were cleaning the beach and picking up all kinds of edible things into tubs and baskets.

The marine resources here are very rich, dozens of times richer than those in Water City.

Lawrence blew the sea breeze for a while, and then returned to Dumu City with a few people.

There are already more than 60 houses in Dumu City. Except for Lawrence's house and public warehouse, the rest are private houses.

Some of the houses are already occupied by people, while others are ready for new people to live in.

Lawrence calculated the time when the sailing team left, and found that it was actually less than a month since departure.

It's because I worry too much about this matter.

There is no use worrying about this. The ocean in this era is very dangerous. Even if the navigation technology here in the north is very powerful, it cannot be 100% safe.

Sailing at sea is inherently accompanied by various accidents and risks.

Not to mention that these people are not doing serious business, but are out to make a fortune.

Lawrence couldn't help those people now, so he could only find something to do for himself, so as not to worry about this all the time and lose his balance.

"Sariel, is there no news from Emma and Ai'ali? Is anyone going to investigate the whereabouts of the big river in the north?"

Salil shook her head and said: "I don't know about this matter. If we ask people from other places to investigate this, they will definitely not be able to handle it. Can't we just let our people go there?"

Lawrence explained: "I want to leave some time-consuming things to outsiders to do, and at the same time find something for some people to do. If they have something to do, it will be less likely to cause trouble."

Salil thinks this statement is unreliable.

"There will be trouble when there is something to do. If there is nothing to do, nothing will happen. This has always been the case here."

Salil's view is very simple and in line with the basic logic of people here.

The nobles and barbarians here are actually like this. The king will not always find things for the nobles to do, and hopes that these nobles will be quiet.

People like the Baron and the Earl also wanted their men to be quiet.

They would not provide jobs to people like Red Beard and Fleiss. Subconsciously, they felt that as long as they used these people, these people would get into trouble.

Their views are actually correct.

Lawrence felt that he was equally right.

"These things may sound complicated, but in fact they are not that simple. For example, witches, the general nobility and rulers do not like witches and magicians, no matter whether they are wizards, witches, magicians or berserkers, they actually don't want to use them. .”

"I'm different from them. I can use the power of witches, magic, and berserkers in the right places."

"The right place doesn't just refer to agriculture and the military, but it's something that both of us want and are willing to do."

Khalan, Lathander, Dren, Fleiss, and the barbarians under Earl Sidel, these people are all strong men in this area!
These people are now fighting for Lawrence on the surface, but in fact they are fighting for themselves.

This is not a contradiction, and the same goes for Salil. The biggest reason why everyone wants to follow Lawrence is that Lawrence gives everyone support and leads everyone to a better tomorrow.

Luofen III and the Marquis of Pig Trotter City are definitely stronger than Lawrence, but these people don't know how to use people.

Wizards, magicians, berserkers, as well as a large number of barbarian soldiers, merchants, farmers, and craftsmen, all of them have no role under these noble rulers.

Just like a dog that has been chained in the house for a long time, it will either become a lazy pet or it will go crazy.

Working under Lawrence is just like Doug. Every day is work, rest is rest, food and shelter are taken care of, and you have a good and trustworthy partner.

Others used ropes to tie those people's necks, but Lawrence untied the ropes here, but used the concept of a home to make everyone reluctant to leave here.Lawrence arranged for people in the water city to dry salt and clean the beach. In the summer, these people also did the fishing work that their ancestors had done for generations.

The Pumixiu people have also begun to farm. They are not a special group of human beings who will die as long as they farm. They can also farm honestly.

Andrew can farm, why can't they?

The main problem in the past was that farming was not guaranteed and it was difficult to survive on barren land.

Nowadays, everyone believes that the land can grow enough food for everyone to eat and drink. As long as we work hard to take care of the land and make God happy, we can have a bumper harvest every year.

Whether it is a civilized society or a barbarian era, most of the time the difference is environment and education. In fact, the difference in race is not big.

Most humans share the same emotions, such as family affection and the ability to think.

Of course, there are some people whose savage minds can't think of anything else and are driven by murder. What these people need to face is being beaten with hoes and shovels!
Lawrence continues to provide a variety of jobs for idle people, and the largest number of jobs in Dume City is construction.

Relying on endless wine and endless food, Lawrence can quickly settle down the place as long as he ensures that his wine and food are not taken away. At the same time, he can also lead people of different languages ​​to build more houses.

Lawrence attaches great importance to communication skills. Now that he has fully mastered the top combat power of the entire territory, and has continuous publicity to strengthen his absolute right to speak, Lawrence has no worries about internal rebellion.

The most capable witches are all his own, the soldiers responsible for guarding and patrolling are all Delen's men, and the young man from Phumexiu has followed Lawrence until today.

There are also Pumi nuns and Durella women. These numerous mothers and wives are all loyal followers of Lawrence.

Lawrence's main awareness of prevention is to target the outside world and not waste energy on meaningless checks and balances.

Because of his trust in his men, Lawrence did not think that the people in Water City would rebel, so he also gave them free houses, iron tools for building houses, and weapons for self-defense.

Even feed them enough to give them the strength to pick up hoes and axes!
Lawrence soon lived in Dumu City for more than half a month. In more than 20 days, he led the people from Water City to build more than 60 houses, doubling the size of Dumu City. At the same time, it also allowed the people of Water City to quickly integrate into Dumu City.

With Sariel waiting anxiously, the sailing team finally returned at noon.

"Prophet, our fleet is back! We have brought back seven large ships!"

After hearing this, Lawrence quickly dropped his job and said happily: "Let's go take a look!"

Salil, Delenn, and Sophia also breathed a sigh of relief.

Now a few people just want to go home early and don't want to continue to live a make-do life in this simple place.

Several people came to the beach and found that there were more than a dozen large boats approaching the sea in front of them. Some people were already rowing smaller long boats quickly approaching the beach.

Delenn said, "It's Beow and Fleiss."

Lawrence had an easy smile on his face.

No matter what the harvest is this time, at least it would be nice if these young people could come back.

No matter how many cattle and grains there are, they are not as important as these people.

Beow jumped from the boat into the sea and walked quickly to Lawrence.

"Prophet! We captured those nobles and brought back a lot of treasures and slaves!"

Lawrence nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, are all our people okay?"

Beow said: "Father, he is dead. This time, a total of three of us died, and five of the people who followed us also died."

Fleiss came over and bowed his head to Lawrence, "Prophet, only two people died during our battle. The others died from eating food there or from injuries on the way back."

Lawrence nodded with a sad face, "Tonight, their souls will rise from the sea to the stars, and I will pray for these warriors in the temple."

Beow's father Friesen died and he was a good man.

Lawrence knew very well that 90.00% of the people in the territory disliked this person, but in Lawrence's eyes, Friesen was really a good person.

Friesen has been nice to Lawrence, who decided to pray for him and the rest of the Warriors today.
