She Is Not a Witch Chapter 98: The new year is approaching

After leaving the Yellow Sea Mountain, Lorraine Hill returned to Luojing and continued to deal with the country's affairs. In fact, it was only a few weeks later, and he didn't accumulate too much, and he finished it in just one day.

After solving these matters, Lorraine Hill was free for the time being, and started to do some things that she had no time to do before, such as practicing other sequences. Among the nine sequences, the ones she has never touched are the ocean sequence, The magic sequence, the original sequence.

However, the original sequence has little meaning to her. In a sense, she is the purest original sequence, and she can change her own sequence arbitrarily.

You can try the Ocean Sequence, but you are not in a hurry for the time being. Lorraine Hill is going to advance the Angel Sequence and Demon Sequence to the ninth level first. These two sequences can be said to be her two strongest forms, if there is no dragon vein support.

Thus, in the following time, Lorraine Hill lived a very regular life. Except for the weekly court meeting, he slept in the palace of Yuzhang Mountain and practiced the sequence of angels.

In this way, the summer is gradually passing, and the fruits from all over the world ushered in a small harvest after the disaster and war. All the states in the world donated some fruits to Luojing, and Lorraine Hill tasted them one by one. The product has a clearer and more direct understanding.

Maybe in the future, different varieties can be researched according to the climate and soil quality of different places? After tasting, she came up with this idea, but this is not a small project. At present, the main energy of the country is not in this area. The most important thing is to ensure the high yield of food crops.

At the end of the summer, the cool autumn wind blows from Hedaizhou to the continuous central plains. When the autumn wind arrives, the yellow leaves are flying all over the mountains, dissipating the hot summer heat. In the coolness, the crops around the country are gradually maturing. The yellow stalks are full of rice ears and grains, like golden waves rippling on the ground, which makes people feel a touch of satisfaction and happiness.

Seeing the bumper harvest, the last trace of anxiety in the hearts of the people all over the world gradually dissipated. Even the children of peasant families can feel the joy of the adults at this time, and they are more cheerful than before, wanton in the fields. Running and playing on the street made some adults shake their heads, but they didn't want to stop it. After all, it was a rare harvest year. This winter should be able to pass through safely, so let the children be happy too.

Because of the abundance of food, some snacks that had never been imagined before have become popular again among the people, such as the extra sweet and sticky maltose. Use a small hammer and a shovel to gently tap off small pieces of flour, and hold it in your mouth. After a while, it will slowly soften and become chewable.

Gradually, the autumn wind turned cold, and the first winter after the founding of the People's Republic of China came. Snowflakes began to fall in Zhou County north of Nolan Island, and people in the south also wore thicker clothes.

Lorraine Hill sat by the window in the palace, occasionally looked up at the snowflakes outside, then continued to lower his head, cutting the window grille in his hand, the vermilion paper was very festive, with a few gold particles sprinkled on it, Lorraine Hill's white and slender fingers folded and changed lightly like a butterfly piercing flowers, and then the scissors also cut lightly and non-stop, fine pieces of paper fell, and the complicated and beautiful window grilles in her hands gradually took shape.

With the construction and expansion of the glass factory, many people in Luojing have begun to replace with transparent glass windows. Although window grilles have taken shape, they have not yet been officially invented and popularized. .

This can be regarded as passing down the cultural meme. After Lorraine Hill finished cutting the window grille, he slowly unfolded it. A phoenix slowly took off amidst the flames and flowers, which was extraordinarily gorgeous and beautiful.

Called the witches on one side of the room, and Lorraine Hill asked them to stick the window grilles on the windows of the palace.

"Let's post it in the main hall used by the court hall. There are many people there."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Then the two young maidens raised their heads and looked at the special paper flower in their hands with a little curiosity.

Slowly, as the winter became colder and colder, smoke rose from everywhere in Luojing. In the era before heating, most people still burned wood for heating.

It was the end of another court meeting, and Chief Xia came to see Lorraine Hill in his study.

"Is there something wrong?" Luo Lanxi

Sitting behind a tidy desk, I looked at this energetic young ***.

"Your Majesty, it will be a new year soon." Official Xia Yu Caifeng seemed to have a lot of thoughts.

"Yes."

Lorland Hill leaned lightly on the back of the chair, pressed his fingers lightly on the side of his face, thinking about what amazing ideas this Officer Xia has. Among the officials of the four seasons, this Officer Xia is the youngest , with the most ideas and ideas.

Officer Chun is cautious, Chief Qiu is strict and strict, and Chief Winter is restrained and reticent. It seems that there is a reason why he stands out so much.

"I'm waiting to hold a grand New Year celebration in Luojing to wash away the stagnation of the past and bring a new vitality to the world."

"So, I'm asking for money again, right?" Lorraine Hill glanced at the thoughtful Officer Xia angrily.

"Well, although it costs money, I have been thinking about it for a long time in the Xia lawsuit. This is indeed a good thing, and maybe I can recover the cost later."

"Aren't you in charge of Xia's lawsuit? Besides, this kind of celebration should be under Chun's lawsuit." Lorraine Hill shook his finger, expressing that he was not so easy to be fooled.

"Your Majesty, please listen to me." Knowing that Lorraine Hill is not the kind of person who fools around casually, Yu Caifeng also told the plan that he had prepared for a long time.

"First of all, for this celebration, we will invite representatives from all over the world to gather together to increase cohesion."

"Then during the celebration period, various activities will be held in Luojing, including food related, special products from all over the world, and new creations."

"There are a lot of new handicrafts produced in our summer lawsuit, but because of the lack of fame and promotion, few people in the world know about them, so I hope to use this to make a publicity. The cost can speed up the progress of many projects, and some folks will imitate it and slowly open some workshops and factories, so that the world's economy will gradually become active.”

"That's true." Lorraine Hill could easily understand what Xia Li said. After all, she had seen too many similar activities in her previous life.

"However, maybe it can be made bigger." Lorraine Hill was thoughtful.

"What does Your Majesty mean?" Now it was Yu Caifeng's turn to ask curiously.

"I think, someone should use photo stones to record the images and sounds of the celebration, and then send them to the state capitals of each state to play, so that the effect will be even better."

In this era without televisions, perhaps this kind of picture and sound will cause a sensation and become a memory of a generation.

I still remember that when I was a child, I sat around the fire with my family and watched the Spring Festival Gala. Only with the advent of the Internet age, the flavor of this festival became less and less, but it is undeniable that in that particular era, such The show really does make a huge difference.

"Let's do it like this, and it can continue in the future, and then a grand event every three years, so the effect will be better. And the place doesn't have to be limited to Luojing, it's better to change it every three years."

Rarely, Lorraine Hill agreed to Officer Xia's suggestion without discounting or criticizing it, which surprised and excited the other party, and then immediately got up to leave, fearing that the girl might go back on her word.

Looking at Yu Caifeng hurriedly walking out of the palace, Lorraine Hill suddenly remembered something.

It's over, I'm going to hand over the important celebration to Xia Jusi this time, I'm afraid the people in Chun Jusi will think about it again. The affairs of the lawsuit were handed over to Xia Lisu, as a warning of suppression."

I have to think of a better reason to comfort that timid Chief Chun, uh, let’s put it this way, “Because this celebration is mainly for the promotion of various new creations that increase production, it is an extension of Xia’s lawsuit , and Chun’s lawsuit is already very busy, so I don’t let him worry about it.”

Since Lorraine Hill became the first leader of the country, he seems to have learned certain methods slowly without a teacher.

I always feel that I am not as innocent as before. After thinking about it, Lorraine Hill slowly drank water from the teacup, sighing that life has changed his appearance.

Soon, as the New Year's celebrations approached, Luojing began to decorate with lights and festoons, with scarlet ribbons on the eaves and

Hanging in the attic, vermilion lanterns are hung everywhere. When night falls, Luojing will be illuminated with fiery red and lively. Even in the middle of the night, there are still many pedestrians on the main street. There are steaming stalls everywhere. You can see all kinds of delicious snacks and novelty items for sale.

"Fire copper pancakes from the Gufia Plain~relieves the cold and is real~"

"The ice spirit's dream of ice brew can make you heal the deepest painful memories in your heart."

"The big green mango in the Southern Islands is definitely a special fruit that you have never eaten before."

"The cranberries from the Mountains of Sighs are iced and delicious."

"Wenyu Peach Blossom Wine in Taowuzhou is made by Honghu in the past. It is absolutely pure."

"Heart-eating Qinghuai Noodles, don't look like green bamboo, but it can get rid of abdominal poisonous insects, children must eat~"

Wearing a black witch costume, black stockings, a wide witch hat on her head, and small leather shoes, Lorraine Hill walked through the streets of the night market, because the shadow of the hat brim made her face slightly hazy, And the smoky crystal pendant on the chest is also very good at hiding the girl's special aura, allowing her to lower her sense of existence and walk on the street without causing some surprises.

Although the whole body is dressed in the style of witches and mages in the Western Continent, it is not surprising in this Luojing, because there have been many guests from all over the world here since ancient times, only because of the chaos and wars of the sea currents and wars in the past few years. less.

"Miss, do you need medicinal materials? You are satisfied with the high-quality ones." A stall owner on the side of the road waved to Lorraine Hill on the road, as if he was sure that the girl would sell something to him Interested.

"What is it?" Lorraine Hill looked at the stall owner with a slightly playful look. There were two very strong bodyguards standing beside him. There are many wooden lattices, in which medicinal materials are placed, and the top is pressed with glass to prevent moisture and random access.

"Of course it's rare in the west, but the oriental specialty potion, I think the young lady has just come to Luojing, and the magician must need to refine some potions. The goods here will definitely help the young miss." He enthusiastically said Introduce skillfully.

"This is the black owl's feather from the mountain of swagger in the south, here is the cold vermilion silver that is a specialty outside the mountain in Beifu, and this, the phantom fragrance exhaled by sea whales in the East China Sea, if there is anything else you need that you haven't found, You can also tell me, I can help you pay attention here."

"These..." Lorraine Hill looked at them one by one, his eyes shifted, distinguishing these things one by one.

The price has already been marked on each grid, but they are not too cheap.

"These things are expensive."

"Of course, the materials are rare after all, but these materials can be used to refine excellent potions, and I believe it will be of greater help to the young lady." Seeing that Lorraine Hill seemed somewhat interested, Start rubbing your palms together.

"No, I know that some things are not easy to transport, but these things are not really good." Lorraine Hill blinked.

"For example, this black owl's feather, there are many black owls in Baimanzhou, and you can go to the village to collect a few big baskets with a few silver coins. It is said to be the cold vermilion silver from Beifu Mountain, but it is actually just some kind of cinnabar. The material of mercury and silver does not necessarily have to be produced in Beifu Mountain, and it is actually not difficult to make. In addition, the last magic fragrance, it is reasonable to say that the real magic fragrance is produced by the seventh to eighth-level white mound whales. But yours seems to be just an ordinary sea beast, and its effect is average. It can only create mist that fools low-level monsters, and people with a little IQ can easily see through it."

"This... this..." The stall owner wiped his sweat with one hand, seeing more and more people around him, he also became anxious.

At first, he saw that the girl was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and she was well dressed. She should be the kind of person who is rich and easy to deceive, but he didn't want to be an expert among the experts, who knew some things better than him. As for the origin of the goods, let’s talk about the Huanlongxiang. He didn’t even know that he had to find the Beluga Whale. He also bought it from fishermen by the sea. It seemed that he was fooled.

"What this lady said, uh... what she said is indeed reasonable, but it is really not easy for me to do business, why don't you sell it to you at a reduced price, do you think it is necessary?" Seeing so many people pointing around At this point, the stall owner also felt a lot of pressure, and his voice was a little quieter.

"I'm temporarily

Not required. "Seeing that he was subdued, Lorraine Hill didn't continue to expose the shortcoming. He just asked him to change the price to make it more reasonable, and then gradually retreated into the crowd.

With this knowledgable girl bargaining, many customers who were tempted but thought it was expensive before started talking to the stall owner about buying and selling. Of course, the price must not be as high as before, but this The stall owner will definitely not lose money.

Walking through the bustling streets, Lorraine Hill watched the once-prosperous Luojing slowly recovering, thinking in his heart that the celebration recommended by Xia Lisi really played a lot of role, and many businessmen from all over the world came to Luojing Going to the market, some factions also sent people to purchase some needed things, which can be said to have promoted a lot of useful exchanges.

It is also because it is the first time to hold this kind of event, and there are many small problems in the process, such as the merchant who quoted the price indiscriminately just now, and some people who sell fake and low-quality products. These situations have to be gradually improved.

However, the disadvantages do not hide the advantages, thanks to this kind of celebration, people from all states in the world have also seen a lot of new and useful things.

"Powder that can purify water, only one pack is needed, and raw water can be drunk." In the shop opened by Xia Litigation's affiliated organization on the street, this small white medicine pack is sold, which can sink water Impurities, this is very useful for the people of the world who have not yet popularized tap water, but the price cost needs to be iterated slowly to reduce it.

In addition, Lorraine Hill also saw some new industrial products, such as paper-wrapped soap~IndoMTL.com~Copper-cased lighters, small magic lamps, simple refrigerators, small engines, can Put on different accessories for grinding flour and rice, etc.

There are also a lot of high-end daily necessities in life. Some newlyweds will carefully select a set in the store, including duvets from the west, enamel watches and clocks from the south, sewing machines from Clancia, and colorful quilts. silk fabrics and so on.

Walking among them, Lorraine Hill also saw a few familiar signs, which were the chambers of commerce in the Virga Business Alliance. They seemed to be recommending large-scale machinery to some big factions or rich people, including There are mighty and tall locomotives on the side of the road, and magic stoves that roar with steam and rotate endlessly. Occasionally, airships with slogans can be seen in the sky.

After the war in the east gradually subsided, many chambers of commerce in the western continent began to send representatives here to find new markets and opportunities.

Finally, Lorraine Hill stopped in front of a tall shop. This shop uses black walnut wood as the door frame and doorposts. The large and transparent glass closets can be seen from the street. There are all kinds of exquisite creations and arrangements inside, and there are black and purple three-dimensional purple petal signs on the eaves, which are written in elegant and graceful letters below, and then the translation is written in oriental characters on the side.

"Flower of the Lacquer Night"
