Traitor Summoning System [Infrastructure]

The wind hasn't blown since the new year, and the weather looks good, but the temperature is cooler.

Cai Lun speculated that this should be the last cooling down.

Leonard also felt that it would be unscientific to keep it cold.

Forget it, this is a different world, and there are some places where science cannot be discussed.

Taking advantage of the fine weather, He Shen took his slaves out to dig ice, and brought truckloads of clean ice back to Little Thorn Castle.

He Shen transformed an underground warehouse into an ice cellar.

The principle of the ice cellar is very simple, use the land to insulate the heat, and then build the entrance to be more tactful and twisty, so that the hot air can't get in.

Keep the ice cellar well, and you can eat ice in summer.

In addition, some of Gongsun Sheng's "spells" also require ice.

Leonard rode a horse to inspect the Chaotic Bazaar that day, and then met with some local residents in a large house in the Chaotic Bazaar to learn about their current situation and what they lack most.

Come from the masses, go to the masses.

It was already night when Leonard returned to Little Thorn Castle, he reined in his horse and enjoyed the scenery outside for a while.

The dark blue night sky, the mountains that are darker than the night sky, the shadows of the mountains are hazy in the mist and become the blurred background of the winter snowy night picture.Nearer are the woods.The leaves have all fallen, and the branches are black in the night, and they look like cracks in the ice from a distance.Because it is too rugged, there is not much snow on it.

These trees form a unique landscape around the little houses that are lit up.There is a thick layer of fluffy snow on the roof, the lights are warm yellow, and the night is dark, it looks warm.

"My territory." Leonard muttered.

"Your territory." Mayor Parker accompanied him.

"I'm going to build this place better," Leonard said.

"This place is good enough." Mayor Parker said seriously.

As the mayor of Wanzhong Town, although he has no real power now, he has no complaints.

In the past, he complained about why all the power was taken away from him, and some power can be distributed to him. He has been the mayor of the town for so many years.

Then I saw what Leonard did in Evening Bell Town.

Mayor Parker: ...

Mayor Parker: Farewell.

He really can't do this, it's good to continue to be the puppet mayor.

Over the years, he has also had feelings for Wanzhong Town, and he is very happy to see Wanzhong Town develop rapidly this year.

"It's not enough." Leonard shook his head, "There are still many aspects to develop, well, let's come in and have dinner together."

"Okay!" Mayor Parker said immediately.

He was also very happy to be able to eat the Lord Lord's meal.

After Leonard returned to Little Thorn Castle, he first took a comfortable hot bath.

After he came out, he learned that there were slaves asking to see him.

"Let the slaves in," Leonard said.

Two slaves came in. Leonard looked familiar, but didn't know their names.

"My lord." The two slaves saluted first.

"Well, what can you do?" Leonard asked.

The whiter slave said: "Some time ago, the blizzard broke some big trees in the Darkmoon Forest, so we wanted to go to the forest to pull those broken trees back, just to serve as timber."

"Oh, let's go." Leonard said, "However, Bachelor Cai Lun has been very busy recently and has no time to organize. Butler Conrad is also busy..." He couldn't think of who to send to organize.

"Let's do this kind of trivial matter by ourselves." The slave said after hearing Leonard's words.

"Okay, then you go on your own." Leonard also said very straightforwardly, without hesitation.

Mayor Parker, who saw this scene next to him, was actually a little surprised.

Let the slaves go out to work by themselves without supervision?If it were any other nobleman, the slave probably would just run away like this. Even if he didn't run away, he would definitely be lazy.

It's scary that the slaves came to ask for work... It's unbelievable, completely subverting the usual imagination.

Mayor Parker thought.

But slaves were treated so well in this land that there was no reason to run away.

They can come and take the initiative to do this, and they can realize that each of them has a heart for the territory.

Mayor Parker seemed to realize something.

The lord is quite critical of the kindness of the slaves, but now it seems that everything is worth it.

……

The slaves spontaneously organized themselves the next day. They found two cows, pulled two carts, and went out. Then they ran back and forth for two days, brought back a lot of wood, and piled it all up in the outer court.

Cai Lun took the time to take a look and found that they had done a good job. Then he rewarded the slaves with food and rewarded the organizer with two copper coins.

Cai Lun found Mayor Parker and asked about the weather here.

"If there is no strong wind in the future, the fan blades of the windmill can be installed." Cai Lun said.

I heard that there will be strong winds after winter, so Cai Lun asked the slaves to remove the fan blades of the windmills in time in early winter to avoid being damaged by the strong winds.

Even so, the roof of one windmill was blown over, and Cai Lun plans to repair it with stronger wood.

"Oh, I don't know," said Mayor Parker.

Cai Lunqi: "Have you lived here for many years?"

"Yes," said Mayor Parker.

"Don't you know some of the climate characteristics here?" Cai Lun asked.

Mayor Parker: "Well, there will be a few strong winds in winter, and then, that is, spring will come after the strong winds."

Cai Lun felt a little bad: "Well... about the time?"

"Just a few months," said Mayor Parker.

Cai Lun was shocked: "Have you not observed and recorded it?"

Mayor Parker was at a loss: "Ah, do you need to observe the records?"

"Okay... I used my past thinking to replace it again. I should know the situation here, and I should have some awareness." Cai Lun persuaded himself, and returned to Little Thorn Castle with his head in pain.

I met He Shen on the road, and He Shen asked him what was wrong, and he told He Shen, so the two returned to Little Thorn Castle with their heads in pain.

If there is no clear time, then some things will be delayed.

"Let's start with the solar terms." He Shen suggested: "Start observing today and rearrange the solar terms here."

"Okay." Cai Lun also recovered.

The 24 solar terms are a great creation of the Chinese nation, which guides farming and production, and also has rich cultural connotations, representing a kind of historical accumulation.

The 24 solar terms are even considered the fifth greatest invention of China.

It is of course very good to start this matter from the 24 solar terms.

They also know that the solar terms are different in different geographical locations, so they say this.

When Cai Lun and He Shen were holding their heads in pain, Leonard followed the Cavaliers into the Dark Moon Forest.

The lake deep in the Darkmoon Forest has been frozen, but there are still some waterfowl.The Cavaliers shot two fat ducks, and Leonard prepared to roast them for dinner.

After it started to snow heavily, Gongsun Sheng had nothing to do and made many traps in the forest.First dig a hole in the ground, then put the bait in the hole, and then spread the fragile twigs and leaves on top.

The savages... oh no, they should be called Montliers now. Under the order of Gongsun Sheng, two Montliermen came to check these traps every day. They did catch a lot of things, but many of them were not edible. .What the man didn't eat was fed to Leonard's hounds.

Leonard planned to build a road here from Darkmoon Forest to Chasing the Sea, so that he could enter with a cart in the future.

These are all things that need to be done in spring.

Leonard hopes to cart some clams to another beach and start a new clam farm.

He came out this trip just to find a beach suitable for raising clams. He went all the way north, and the last thing he saw was a beach protruding towards the sea, which was also in a semicircle shape.

It's a good place, Leonard thought, just right for a second clam farm.

Leonard and the others continued to walk north, the coast became steeper, and there were rocks everywhere.Leonard knew that there were a lot of edible things attached to these reefs, but it was too cold now, he didn't want to check, and he didn't plan to let his hands go to check.

The wind picked up, and the sea water was blown by the wind and slapped on the reef. It was very powerful, and there was a rumbling sound, and the feet seemed to vibrate a little.

"The weather is going to get worse." Said one of the Montreers accompanying him. "My lord, it's time for us to go back."

His mainland Chinese is not very good, but he can already express the meaning clearly.

"Okay, let's go back first." Leonard made a decision.

At this time, it was too late to return to Little Thorn Fort, so Leonard and his party hurried back to the base of the sea-rushing team.

No sooner had they entered the door than a blizzard descended, sweeping across the beach violently.

"I hope those shells will be hidden in the sand." A member of the sea hunting team said humorously, "Then let us dig and eat them tomorrow."

Everyone laughed.

At night, Leonard roasted the two fat ducks. Of course, the ducks need to be roasted with fruit charcoal.

The duck tastes better when roasted with fruit wood, so that it has the fragrance of fruit wood.

There are enough seasonings here, so it is easy to prepare.

Leonard used the method of making Peking duck. He made relatively small holes in the duck, emptied the internal organs and poured boiling water into it, so that the duck meat would not lose moisture when it was roasted. It will also expand the skin of the duck, making the skin thin and crispy, making it the most delicious part of the whole roast duck.

Leonard roasted the duck over and over until the skin turned an attractive red color and was oily and crispy, before he stopped.

There is no cake here, so I ate it directly.

Leonard tore off a duck leg, blew on it, and then bit into it. The layers were crispy, and his eyes lit up on the spot.

The gravy was juicy and delicious, and the meat inside was so smooth and tender that Leonard was delighted.After eating, I only feel that the lips and teeth are fragrant, oily but not greasy, and the aftertaste is endless.

Moreover, the meat of the duck itself is very firm and delicious, which is different from the artificially raised ones.

The fresh aroma of the whole duck was raised to a whole level by the faint fragrance of fruit trees. Leonard ate the whole duck and then burped happily.

Others around shared another duck, and everyone exclaimed after eating.

It's stormy outside, and you can hear the waves lapping on the rocks and the earth rumbling.

Inside is a warm fire, roast duck, seafood and soft sourdough bread.

It's a good life.

Leonard was lying on the bed, chatting with the knight next to him.

After a while he got tired and closed his eyes.

Listening to the sound of wind and rain outside on the bed has a special flavor.

This is the last snowstorm of the winter.

After the snow, the weather gradually warmed up.

Many things can be started.
