forest kingdom

You will definitely not be able to live in Oak City before Eternal Night, and you will have to wait until next year at the earliest.

Lawrence is not in a hurry about this matter. He is very comfortable living in the wooden house now and is not in a hurry to move.

Kehalan has researched several plants suitable for dyes, and many places on the mountain are suitable for growing these dyes.

Lathander was willing to help with things in the manor, and Lawrence got away from farming and tedious manor affairs, and began to check the transaction records of these days in the church in Pumexiu Town.

"Candice, compile these statistics and arrange for someone to check them."

"Yes, Master."

Dark elf maids are well-educated and are among the rare high-level intellectuals in the territory.

At the same time, the addition of Catherine and Candice allowed Lawrence to trust the female slaves and dark elves sent before, liberating more intellectuals.

These southerners began to be active in the commercial work of Dumu Port and Pumixiu Town, and were also responsible for money and guard work.

Lawrence looked at Brielle's introduction and found that there was a strange thing that had contributed a lot of value in the past two years.

Chamber pot!

Not only the barbarian nobles of the Luofen Kingdom, but also Madison brought a lot back several times in a row.

Businessmen from the Western Kingdom also brought back a lot.

Is the temptation to pee lying on the bed so strong in winter?
Lawrence had thought that only cold barbarians would like this, especially those in the north.

But I didn’t expect that there are so many people who are interested in this.

Could it be...that they usually peed on the bed?Or sleep without any clothes on?
Lawrence felt that if he went to bed without any clothes on, he would really dare not go out to use the bathroom.

"It feels outrageous..." Lawrence asked: "Selavin, ask a Durila man why chamber pots are so popular in the Western Kingdom."

Seravan has had a lot of contact with the Durila people and is very familiar with the habits of the Durila people.

"Because the chamber pot allows you to pee on the bed, not only the people of Durela, but also people here like the chamber pot and have made many beautiful chamber pots."

Lawrence frowned, feeling as if he had escaped from the perspective of ordinary people and became unaware of the sufferings of the people.

"Don't you usually use a poop bucket at home?"

Seravan said sheepishly: "Use it. You will only use it if your stomach can't bear it."

Lawrence suddenly remembered, these people don’t have bathrooms in their homes!
Not only that, they don’t have 24-hour heating at home, and they don’t have the habit of being clean.

These people are the kind of people who fall asleep directly after making babies in bed without cleaning their bodies and bed sheets at all. They belong to the kind of very backward savage cognition.

Lawrence saw Brielle standing aside again, and quickly remembered the physiological structure of women. The chamber pot was also a good prop for these women. They could use it directly without sitting on a dirty excrement bucket.

Many people share the same dung bucket. If some female nobles can't stand it, they do think that the chamber pot is cleaner and more aristocratic.

This is an era of lazy people. Etiquette, justice and integrity are not popular here, nor can they be popular in the minds of nobles.

For most fat nobles and businessmen, the lazier and easier things are, the more popular they are.

"Then make more and sell them outside." Lawrence ignored the topic.

Hygienic habits need to wait until the living environment improves. It is really difficult to let a group of people live in a shack and ask them to practice hygiene.

However, rectification will begin next year. Currently, the main focus is on building public toilets to maintain environmental sanitation and building more boiling water rooms to prevent most diseases.

"Most of the things this year have been arranged. In addition to building houses and ships in Dumu Port, there will also be construction of salt drying fields and kelp processing workshops."

"Let those who go to sea this year not forget to exercise. Next year we will go to the West to make a fortune."

Andrew, who was drowsy in the chair, quickly cheered up and stood up to look at Lawrence. "Where to make a fortune?"

Lawrence was speechless.

"There are fourteen kingdoms in the west. Next year we will go to Fish City, our new territory in the west. I call it Flying Fish Port."

"We set out from Feiyu Port, passed through several coastal kingdoms, and robbed the Kingdom of Waves, which is two thousand kilometers away from us. This is a kingdom with a large number of scattered islands, and it also harassed the Durila and Gran people before us. Pirate Nation.”

"Their population is about 30, and they are internally divided into multiple aristocratic forces. They threatened several coastal kingdoms for a few decades before gradually settling down more than ten years ago."

"Now this group of people are mainly merchants and slave owners. They are good at catching slaves from all over the country. Let's go and beat them up and then do business with them."

Andrew looked at Lawrence in confusion, and Seravan, Fleiss and others were also confused.

"It seems very far away?" Seravan felt that it was definitely not close.

Lawrence said: "It takes about half a month to get to this place, and then more than half a month to come back. It's not much different from the time when I went to sea before."

Seravan nodded, feeling that it was not far away.

Andrew is less optimistic.

"I heard about this place when I was in the West. The people here are not weak. There are many ships and sailors."

Lawrence knew this.

"Yes, they turned from pirates to one of the Western kingdoms because they found that plundering was not as good as doing business. However, now they do not farm, but go to weaker countries to capture slaves and then sell them to coastal countries near the inland sea. "

"Because of the trade relationship with the Western Kingdom, and because the Kingdom of Gran provided them with land many years ago, these people are not as active along the coast as we are."

The Kingdom of Waves is the pirate country in the West. Now it just has the appearance of a kingdom, but it is actually still engaged in piracy.

Lawrence hoped to do business with them and to free more slaves.

So we must first give these people a good beating and shatter their pride and complacency.

If you want to do business with a group of bandits, the most reliable way is to teach them to respect you.

Otherwise, even if a trade cooperation is reached with a pirate leader, his people will not be willing to do business honestly and will take the opportunity to cause trouble.

Only if you fight hard will your business be successful in the future.

There is no morality at all with a group of pirates, and Lawrence will prove to his allies that he is capable of protecting them.

It depends on whether you are willing or not.

And having a goal can make people in the territory more hopeful, instead of having nothing to do all day long and losing their ambition.

Lawrence looked at Andrew.

"Andrew, are you afraid of those pirates in the south? Do I know that life is comfortable and calm in the Kingdom of Waves? Will the warriors living in the north lose to the thieves in the calm waves in the south?"

Andrew said quickly: "I will chop those people to death and let them know who is the real strong man on the sea!!"

Lawrence nodded, lowered his head and continued to deal with official duties, "When I have nothing to do, I will take the soldiers to learn how to sail at sea, especially what they need to pay attention to in boarding battles, and what they need to pay attention to when sailing at sea. Tell them all."

"Okay!" Andrew was feeling uncomfortable being idle, and something was wrong.

After understanding what he was going to do, Andrew felt comfortable.

"I didn't even play a few games last year. I hope there are some powerful ones among those southern pirates who can make me excited!" (End of Chapter)
