Chapter 241 Countermeasures
Rhodes walked out of the room. He probably knew what the King of Nord had sent the Chief Grand Maester. He was worried that if he became a lord at such a young age, he might do a lot of wrong things, such as treating the residents of the territory too harshly. .

This made Rhodes even more suspicious of whether the original owner of his body was the illegitimate son of the King of Nord. Although some nobles treated their illegitimate children as if they were insignificant servants, some nobles treated his illegitimate children as if they had the right to inherit. Same as son.

The chief scholar told Rhodes to ask him if there was anything he didn't know. If he wanted to deal with the case in the territory, he had to be accompanied by him. The plan to build the territory also needed his consent before it could be implemented.

Rhodes was a little helpless, he felt that this didn't seem to help him, but it seemed to restrain his hands and feet.

But fortunately, the plan Rhodes made last night was not denied by him, allowing Rhodes to implement his plan.

Rhode felt that as long as he gave the Chief Grand Maester something to do, or let him recognize himself, he would not interfere with his behavior.

Rhodes stood there thinking about what he could do to the chief scholar. It would be best to let him do research. Although he is blind, it doesn't mean he can't see.

The Chief Grand Maester can replace his eyes, hands and feet with the terrifying spiritual power and magic power in his body. If he can work, it is estimated to be faster than dozens of adults combined.

His blindness did not cause him any inconvenience, the only effect was that he no longer liked to look at people with straight eyes.But it can't be his fault. He can turn his head to talk to others, which means he respects others very much.

Rhodes stood still and began to think.

What are you looking for for this chief scholar to do?

Send him and Gilbert to work on cement?

Forget it, he is so old, it's not good to go to the wind and sleep.

There is a complete process for papermaking, and there is no need for people to study it, just make instruments according to the drawings.Although the production staff needs to be trained, the site for the paper mill has not yet been selected, so there is no rush for this matter.

Let him and Hamer go to make farm tools and water conservancy facilities?

There are also complete blueprints for these things. You only need to ask a few carpenters and blacksmiths to manufacture them against the blueprints, and you don't need him to study them, but it should be good for him to pass the time.

Rhodes mainly wanted to distract the Chief Grand Maester, and if he was by his side, it would definitely be a bit of a hindrance.

When facing people in this world, he always has a sense of superiority of modern people. After all, he has traveled from a more advanced civilization, and he feels that standing on the shoulders of countless giants must see farther than people in this world. .

Maybe he is not as good as some people in war or political means, but compared to how to develop, he is still better than people in this world. The exploration and practice of countless ancestors can save Rhodes from many detours.

Rhodes turned around and knocked on the door again.

The door was quickly opened, and the Chief Grand Maester was still sitting in his previous position.

"Is there any question you want to ask?" the Chief Grand Maester asked. He looked very old, but his voice was full of air.

"I want to ask if you have done any research on farm equipment?" Rhodes replied.

"Are you referring to tools like a hoe?" the old man asked after thinking for a moment.

"No, I mean agricultural tools such as plows, water mills, and drums?" Rhodes explained.

"What are you talking about?" The old man seemed to be interested and asked again.

This world is even a little behind than the Middle Ages in Western Europe, and even the plow has not been invented.

"The plow is used to plow the land. It can break the clods of soil for easy sowing. The plow we will use in the future can also sow the seeds while plowing the land. The water mill uses the power of the water to drive the millstone to crush the grain, and the drum car uses the turbulent water flow. Turn the wheel, so that the water tank mounted on the wheel will automatically pump water and bring it ashore for irrigation." Rhode explained that he still has a little understanding of these, and he has read a lot of farming articles before crossing.

"What you said is a little complicated. I'm old and I don't understand it very well." The old man was a little confused by Rhodes' series of explanations.

"Why don't you come and take a look with me later?" Rhodes asked again, "See if you can give us some suggestions?"

He felt that sooner or later these agricultural tools would be spread, it was just a matter of time.However, he believes that it is better for the Nord Kingdom to use it for the time being. If other countries get it, it will definitely increase their national strength rapidly.

Unless he can unify the entire continent, he will definitely maintain his current narrow thinking.

"Then I'll go and have a look with you. It just so happens that you don't have any books to read here." The old man stood up tremblingly.

"Why don't you lift yourself up with teleportation?" Rhodes saw how hard it was for him to get up.

"I'm not that old yet. Walking when you're free is also good for your health." The old man replied.

Rhodes thought to himself, when he made an extremely comfortable and luxurious wheelchair in the future, let's see if he still said such things.

"How old are you?" Rhodes asked. It's not polite to ask a lady her age, but it shouldn't be a problem to ask such an old man.

"There are more than 200." The old man replied.

Rhodes was a little surprised. He didn't expect this old man to live so long. He originally thought that only elves or other long-lived species could live beyond 150 years old.

People in this world may have a relatively long life expectancy because of their strong physique. If there are no hidden injuries or diseases, they can generally live to be over 150 years old, but almost no one can live to be over [-] years old.

150 years old is like a limit for human beings, but the life of elves or giant dragons is calculated in thousand years, and there are even elves over [-] years old on the mainland.

Rhodes is curious about the reasons for the longevity of these species. He also wants to live another 500 years, and it would be better if he lived another 1000 years.

He helped the old man to the stairs leading to the first floor.

"I'll use magic to ask you to go down. Going down stairs hurts your knees, especially for an old man like you." Rhodes suggested.

"I'll do it myself." The Chief Maester floated up, floating on the surface of the stairs, all the way to the first floor.

"Did you bring the carriage?" Rhodes asked again, "The place we are going to is still a bit far from here."

"I'm not too old to ride a horse," said the Chief Maester stubbornly.

Rhodes was a little skeptical, how could an old man like him withstand the bumps of riding a horse, even he felt that the horse bumped him hard.

After the initial novelty wore off, he felt that even riding a crowded bus was better than riding a horse.

Rhodes and the chief scholar came outside the castle, while Baron and Gilbert had already left the castle for the Rocky Mountains.

After he talked to a soldier brought by the chief maester, the soldier ran to the stables and brought two horses.

The Chief Maester walked up to a horse, stroked its head, and whispered something in its ear.

The horse seemed to understand what he said, and kept nodding.

"Let's go." The chief bachelor said to Rhodes.

Rhodes turned on his horse and walked a few steps before looking back at the chief scholar behind him.

The Chief Maester levitated and sat on the horse.

Afterwards, the horse didn't need him to control it, so he obediently followed Rhodes to the direction of the town...
