Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 339 Bachelor Eli
A simple carriage drove slowly on the smooth dirt road, and two old men in gray robes sat on the carriage.

One of the old people looked very old, and the wrinkles on his face were carved on his face like bark.

If Rhodes is here, he will definitely be able to recognize him. He is the chief scholar of the Nord Kingdom who has not appeared since he was sent to the royal library.

He lifted the curtain on the carriage and looked out through the small window on the carriage.

Driven by the farmers, the huge bison walked in the farmland on both sides of the road, pulling a set of strangely shaped carriages.

"Is this the plow you mentioned?" asked a bald, silver-haired old man next to him.

The Chief Grand Maester nodded, "We seem to be a bit late. The climate here is warmer than ours, and spring plowing has already started."

"It's not too late. They're just digging the soil and haven't started sowing the seeds yet." The silver-haired old man looked at the situation in the farmland beside the road and judged, "And we don't need to plant the seeds we brought in all the fields here. If these seeds are inferior to unimproved crops in ordinary soil without magic, the farmers here will definitely hate us."

"It doesn't matter if you fail this time, I will ask the lords here to compensate them. If you can research wheat with a yield of nearly a thousand catties per mu here, all the Nords will be grateful to you." said the chief scholar.

"Maybe I can become one of the most powerful saints in the entire history because of this." The silver-haired old man smiled, looking forward to arriving at the lord's castle here earlier.

The reason why they came here is because the land here is currently the most fertile place in Nord.

Although because of the war, many farmlands were abandoned and no one cultivated them.

But in terms of the fertility of the land, this place is the most fertile in all of Nord.

The Hewang Plain is often affected by floods. This is a plain area. Whenever the Qinghe River floods, there will definitely be floods here.

Although the flood will cause a lot of damage, the flood will bring a large amount of fish and shrimp feces to the Hewang Plain. After the flood recedes, these substances that can make the soil fertile will remain on the plain.

If things go on like this, the land in Hewang Plain becomes very fertile.

After the groom driving the carriage heard the conversation between the two bachelors in the carriage, he waved his whip at the two horses in front of him, and the speed of the carriage increased significantly.

……

Rhodes felt a bit of a headache looking at the Chief Grand Maester who suddenly appeared in his castle.

He originally thought that the Chief Grand Maester would not come back, but he didn't expect that not only did he come back, but he also brought back a bachelor who didn't look very easy to get along with.

The bachelor had long silver hair, but the top of his head was bald, which made people feel a bit awkward.

He has a tall hooked nose and sharp eyes, just like a falcon, but there is a simple and honest smile like a bear on his face.

This is the first time Rhodes has encountered such a completely invisible person.

Is this bachelor as serious as his sharp eyes, or as tolerant as the smile on his face.

"We will stay with you for a while to study the hybrid wheat you mentioned." The chief grand maester said while sitting on the chair in front of Rhodes.

"Are you with him?" Rhodes asked.

"No, he studies alone. I'm here to continue instructing you on how to manage your territory and how to be a noble lord." The chief academician said, "I heard that during my absence, you will transfer the Qingliu City across the river Marquis Marquis was killed, although it was in a legal duel, but I don't approve of this kind of killing of nobles from the same country."

It had been more than half a month since the duel with the Marquis Marron. After March, Rhodes had been busy with matters related to spring plowing, and almost forgot about it.

Rhodes didn't bother to argue with the chief maester, it was meaningless, just like a student arguing with his teacher about the correctness of something.

Even if the student is right, the teacher usually will not agree with the student's point of view unless he is a very good teacher.

Rhodes nodded, and then he looked at another bachelor, trying to change the subject, "There is still an area near the castle that is temporarily uncultivated, and it can be used as a test field for this bachelor. If manpower is needed, I can issue a recruitment report." notice."

"Then I will trouble you." The bachelor looked at Rhodes with a smile.

"What should I call you?" Rhodes asked again.

"You can call him Maester Eli," the Grand Maester replied in his old but well-mannered voice.

"Bachelor Eli, I think it's still early. If you want, I can take you to that place first to see if it's suitable." Rhodes offered.

"Don't bother you to go in person, you can just send a few servants to take me there. Let me make it clear to you first, I want enough plows and the kind of bison that can plow the land, and the seeds I bring may not be here. There are good yields." Bachelor Eli replied with a wave of his hand.

"I will definitely give priority to meeting your needs. What you do is much more important than other farmers. This year is the first year, and it is normal to have low yields. Even if you give your land grains No harvest, I can bear such a loss." Rhodes said with a smile.

He stood up, took out a copy of "Genetics" from the bookshelf behind him, and handed it to Bachelor Eli.

"It contains more mysteries about life. In addition to systematically summarizing the nuclear inheritance and several genetic laws mentioned earlier, there are also cytoplasmic inheritance and epigenetics that I haven't figured out yet. " Rhodes said.

Maester Eli took the book and couldn't help but flip through it.

"Is this the book made of the paper you mentioned?" asked the chief grand maester beside him.

"Yes, this is the special paper made by the paper mill for writing." Rhodes replied.

"You mean this paper has other uses besides being used for writing?" the Chief Grand Maester asked curiously.

Rhodes pulled out a soft white paper from an iron box on the desk.

"It can also be used as a handkerchief, but it is disposable. It can be used to blow your nose and wipe things." Rhodes said that not long ago, he was finally able to use paper instead of rough wood chips when he went to the toilet.

Although paper mills produce according to systematic formulas, the technological level is still not up to the level of modern large-scale machinery production.

The resulting paper was either too rough or too easily broken.

But it is still infinitely better than wood chips.

"It's a waste to use paper for this kind of thing." The chief maester sighed. "You should all produce paper for writing."

Rhodes sighed, and began to think about what kind of work it would be better for the chief scholar to do.

How about scratching the cat?
