She Is Not a Witch Chapter 152: Sweat and the earth
"Good afternoon, Miss Gerwier."
In the courtyard of the mansion, the eldest lady was sitting in a pavilion, flipping through relevant history books on the southern border of the empire, and taking simple notes from time to time. After hearing this greeting, she raised her head curiously.
"Mr. Lubin?" Today, the financial officer of the territory is still neat and capable, with booklets and cardboards in his hand, recording something at any time, and a copper needle pen in his chest pocket.
"I'm bothering Missy."
He bowed to salute, and Iyena, who was behind Geweier, also looked at the elder brother curiously. He is a busy person now, so why did he come to see the eldest lady here. Even if it is a report, isn't it also a small gathering in the afternoon, when Mr. Unknown and Mr. Gowas will be there.
"There is something special about coming here today. I would like to recommend a consultant who can bring a lot of help to the construction of the territory."
"So, can you tell me who it is?"
"This consultant is from the Plantagenet Dynasty in the East. She is an Eastern scholar. I believe that her profound knowledge can help everyone in the territory. Now she is outside the door. If you allow me, I will let her come over See you."
After listening, Geweier hesitated a little, and then looked at Iyena beside her. This maid has always been the representative of Mr. Unknown, and I don't know if that Mr. agrees and cares.
"Let's meet first, miss." At this moment, Yi Yena seemed to think of something suddenly, and her fingers overlapped and squeezed.
"Okay."
Jian Geweier nodded, Lu Bin clapped his hands, and then a guard came outside the mansion, letting in a girl who had been waiting for a long time.
She is wearing an oriental-style robe, holding a thick book in her arms, a pair of glasses on the bridge of her nose, long light blue hair, and her eyes are like jasper, very gentle.
This girl is about 17 years old in appearance. She is very young. Although she has a bookish temperament, it is really difficult for people to believe that she has a wealth of knowledge.
"Hello, Miss Gewier." She held the book in one hand, lifted the skirt with the other hand, bowed her head in salute, and then raised her head.
"Hello." Geweier looked at this special girl, she seemed to have a different kind of aura, like a new wind in the forest, refreshing and comfortable.
"My name is Jialan. I come from Huiluzhou of the Plantagenet Dynasty. I am a student of the Scorching Sun Xiangyu School. Maybe you can understand it as a school of mages who specialize in cultivating superhumans." Her voice was like Orchid, Clear and soft.
"I see." Geweier nodded, and then asked curiously.
"Miss Jialan is here to study in the Western Continent. I rarely see Orientals."
"Yes, because I encountered a bottleneck in my practice, I came out to travel and exercise. I happened to pass by this place recently, and felt that some local things were very interesting, so I wanted to stay for a while."
"If Miss Geweier doesn't mind, I can also contribute to the construction of the territory."
"This is naturally welcome, but I can't make decisions on the matters in the territory alone. The specific arrangements may have to wait until the evening to discuss with everyone."
"It doesn't matter." After speaking, the girl nodded again.
After chatting for a while in the pavilion, Lu Bin went to attend to his own affairs, leaving Geweier and Jialan to continue in the pavilion.
"This is the black tea from the local estate, I don't know if it suits Jialan's taste." Geweier asked Iyena to prepare new tea, and the two continued to talk.
Holding the porcelain cup with bright yellow patterns, Jia Lan took a sip, then nodded in approval, which also made Geweier feel a lot happier.
"Jialan should be able to feel a big difference between her hometown and here. I heard that the dynasty in the east is very powerful."
"There are indeed many differences, such as food, customs, systems, concepts, etc." Lorraine Hill summed up a little.
"For example, in the East there are specialized agencies and officials to deal with various matters, but here the local lords make their own decisions. Sometimes it feels confusing, and there are even big differences in the laws of different places."
"Although this allows the nobles to easily adjust according to the situation, the difficulty is entirely on the lord, and it is inevitable that some of them may lose sight of one another, or they may not be detailed enough." She didn't want to talk about too illusory ideals, but simply analyzed from the perspective of facts .
"That's true." Geweier was thoughtful.
"If it is Jialan, is there any better suggestion and method?"
"Of course there is. In fact, this is what I want to try during my travels, and that is how to build a unified and harmonious country."
"Does it feel a bit whimsical, but there is indeed a special knowledge in the East, which is about this."
"Those sages always seem to be tirelessly trying to achieve that ideal, the ideal called 'peace and prosperity'."
"Occasionally I will be affected by it, and I will think about some problems, but I also know that fantasy cannot solve the problem, and I still have to explore and try step by step."
"Is it such a grand ideal..." Geweier looked at the clear light yellow tea in the cup, and stirred it gently with the spoon.
"How can it be called a 'peace and prosperity'? I heard from my father that as long as there is a human being, there will be ugly and evil parts."
"Yes, humans are also animals, and they always seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. You can't let him harm himself and make others better, this is wrong." The girl replied softly.
"If the environment encourages doing bad things, obeying the rules and doing good will only bring harm and harm, then no matter how much you encourage, it will have little effect."
"It would be wrong to blame people for being old by the decline of the world. It must be that the environment has changed first, which gradually led to the current situation."
"But it's no use blaming the environment, which is reality, capricious and ever-changing."
"So, in order to deal with this change, we need an inhibitory force to adjust, compensate those damaged objects, and restore their balance, and the state plays this role."
"But this is difficult, because even the emperor cannot know everything and adjust everything clearly and fairly."
"Yes, but not beyond reach."
"Just as a human being has no wings, it doesn't mean he can't fly."
"Things that were impossible in the past may be possible in the future."
"If this generation fails to accomplish, the next generation may not be hopeless."
"In order to reach the sky, we can use our wisdom to create our own wings."
"In order to reach the other shore of our dreams, we can also create the ideal and perfect country in our minds."
"If one person cannot know everything, then let more people assist. If the living beings cannot detect all the confusion, then rely on tools and skills to achieve better results. If there is no such thing in the world, then Just create what we want."
"I think what I said is very obscure, but Miss Geweier should be able to understand a little bit."
Gewier looked at this oriental girl, and countless curiosity arose in her heart. She actually vaguely understood the meaning of this passage.
In an ideal country, the emperor may not be necessary, but more likely redundant. If the nobles cannot manage the territory well, then use suitable people, tools, and methods to rule.
I'm sorry, I can't say anything about the rest, Lorraine Hill thought to himself looking at Geweier who was thinking quietly.
About the future, people actually have a lot of assumptions. When AI and electronic technology become more and more developed, many evil deeds in the past will gradually disappear, because the soil for evil deeds will be lost.
The new technology makes it easy to find traces. Thanks to this, many Sherlock Holmes have already lost their jobs.
Even if it cannot be completely eradicated, at least it is gradually improving compared to the past, isn't it? The only regret is that the lifespan of an individual human being is not long. Compared with the long river of civilization that spans tens of thousands of years, it is just a glimpse of a small splash.
Thinking turned around, Geweier at the table seemed to no longer be entangled in these profound questions.
"Can we have dinner together tonight? I think I have a lot of questions for Miss Jialan."
The sun gradually slanted, and the time came to the afternoon.
Guvas, Lubin, and the unknown knight came to the hall of the mansion one by one, where Geweier and Jialan were already sitting.
Looking at the slowly approaching 'knight', Lorraine Hill shook his senses and distracted himself from the manipulation.
There is naturally no one in the armor now, it is just an empty shell. She relies on the power of the holy object to distract and manipulate it, and imitates the magic fluctuations of the extraordinary core, so that others do not notice it.
There are also a few people who know the truth to help cover, so there is no need to worry about being exposed.
After sitting down, Lu Bin and Geweier introduced Xia Jialan, a scholar from the East, to the others. Gu Huasi and the "Unknown Knight" nodded to express their approval, and then they reported and discussed the things in the past few days.
"I have received news that the war in Chixin Province is over for the time being." Gu Huasi said the news he had finally obtained.
"It is said that the military mobilized 60,000 troops and several elite regiments to suppress the Baskar family's resistance."
"However, according to the news, the little princess of the red dragon still survived the battlefield this time and fled to an unknown area."
"Now the imperial army has begun to increase its search teams, patrolling many provinces in the southern border, and many nobles have also been summoned and held as hostages in the capital of the province, in case the local rebellion follows the descendants of the red dragon."
"This will probably bring a lot of obstacles to our work." Lu Bin pushed down his glasses and explained briefly.
"Because the search will also find those colleagues, and they will also be hunted after their identities are revealed."
"So time is a little tight, we have to prepare early."
"About this, I think maybe I can provide some help." Jia Lan (that is, Lorraine Hill) raised Bai Hao's wrist.
The girl pulled out a page from the thick book in her hand and spread it out on the table.
"This is the training method of the Eastern Dynasty, the "Birin Army" and the method of making supporting weapons."
[Birin Army] (Evaluation: Silver Level): In ancient times, the imperial forest army of the country of 魑, the people at that time worshiped the sacred tree and the emerald jade dragon, and the soldiers guarding the sacred tree used a scale armor like jade porcelain Arms itself, hence the name.
The official Jade Lin army members are all natural sequence 4 or dragon sequence 4 and above, and they have learned two skills: [Shenmu Longevity Lv.3] [Jade Scale Body Protection Lv.3]. The latter can increase the defense, and it is a very tough legion. If matched with the corresponding weapons and armor, after forming an formation, it can be comparable to the ordinary Sequence 5.
[Blade of Jade Steel] (excellent silver level): There are five styles of sword, sword, halberd, dagger, and axe. The color is like jade. 2] [Sunder Armor Lv.2] Two special effects.
[Birin Armor] (rare silver level): An armor also made of jade steel, the outer layer is made of jade-colored scales, which can resist sharp weapons, and the inner lining is tanned from the bark of the **** tree. Buffers various impacts and blunt objects, with three special effects of 【Sturdy Lv.2】【Buffer Lv.2】【Insulation Lv.2】.
Because of the withering of Jianmu in the past, this kind of Imperial Forest Army naturally gradually disappeared, but the girl now has the fruit of Jianmu and the power of the Harvest Witch. It is not difficult to cultivate Shenmu again.
In addition, the special steel required for crafting can also be generated with the holy object [Zhan Tie Stowett]. The price is that the activity of this holy object will be greatly consumed, but now I don't care about saving it.
In order to avoid suspicion, Lorraine Hill specially did not use the various crafts and military systems of Clancia this time, but adopted the arms of the Eastern Dynasty. Although some of the skills are a bit outdated, fortunately, after her deduction during this period And improvement, it should be enough to adapt to the current battle.
"These are the training programs for the elite corps. As for the ordinary corps, I personally suggest adopting new-style muskets and uniformly deploying them." The girl explained.
"It looks really powerful, but now we don't have such a big budget." Geweier shook his head helplessly remembering the little wealth left in his family.
"If this is the case, I think I can solve it." The silent unknown knight finally spoke.
Two weeks later, a caravan came to Viscount Winlani.
"Hello, may I ask if this is Yamazakura City?" A business lady got off the carriage and greeted the farmers beside her.
"Sakura? This is Georgetown." He put down his **** and wiped his sweat.
"You idiot, have you read the announcement posted by the adults at the city gate recently?" A companion next to him came over, put a towel on his shoulder, and looked at the caravan with his hips on his hips.
"That's right, this is the city of mountain cherry, because the young lady likes the cherries we grow, haha." He seemed a little proud.
"If that's the case, that's right, we belong to the Roentgen Chamber of Commerce." The merchant lady has light brown skin, wearing dark red clothes, and a woven shawl on her shoulders, looking a bit elegant , but not too prominent, very approachable.
"Because I recently received a letter from a friend, I brought a lot of things here. May I ask, where is the local lord?"
"This is right in the city. The most lively place is the Lord's Mansion. Recently, people go there every day to report and receive various things. It's easy to find."
"Is it the distribution of food?" Charlene was a little curious. Recently, many fiefdoms rebelled, and food was in short supply.
"Yes or no, in fact, they are mainly various tools for reclaiming the fields, but as long as you work hard, the Lord's Mansion will distribute food as a reward." The farmer explained, and then smiled a little.
"It's much better now than in the past. It's all posted on the same day. Even if you don't go today, as long as you report later, you will still be able to make up for it. Don't worry about missing something."
"Thanks to the eldest lady, our family has survived the most difficult time, so we don't have to worry about going hungry."
"However, the eldest lady said that it was not her fault, which made us feel quite puzzled."
"Well, it's enough that the eldest lady is a good person anyway, and now all the people in the lord's mansion are good people, that powerful knight, Mr. Guvas, Mr. Lubin, oh yes, and the lovely Miss Jialan, all of them Nice guy."
After speaking, the farmer pointed to the field behind him.
Under the verdant hillside~IndoMTL.com~A small town built of white stones stands quietly. Outside the city are square fields. It can be seen that many of them have been reclaimed recently. Local residents walk among the fields. Diligent sowing and watering. Although he looks busy, a different kind of vitality is in his eyes.
[The sweat of farming will bear fruit]
[The sheaf of wheat ears in the hand is the proof of the relationship between man and the earth]
[Even if no one agrees...but I still see it]
[For me, everyone will blossom and bear fruit]
[Precious children, there is not much I can do]
[But I will stay with you. Because, I want to praise your efforts]
