My Magic Has No Attack Power Chapter 114: : Work hard for a while
A few days later, spring in a real sense arrived, and the rain-contaminated water sources showed signs of recovery, albeit at a slower rate than the last time it rained.
But what is worrying is that some weeds have withered. The trolls are trying to grow potatoes in the farmland next to the town with the stream water that has not fully returned to normal, but there is still no sign of germination.
The experiment of the trolls made Xiang En also give up the idea of watering crops with river water, and continued to add Unscaled Spring to the water in the reservoir every day, or to add natural fertilizer to the urine pool in the toilet.
On this day, Xiang En made an extra-large mashed potato as usual for himself and Andrea.
Looking through the storage room, he found that there was not much left of the salt collected from the 500 people's homes in the town, and the remaining amount was only enough for two or three months. I've heard of salt mines.
After eating mashed potatoes for Andrea and leaving a pot of milk for her as usual, Xiang En took Naka, who had broken through the gold level, out of the room and continued to patrol his territory.
Today the trolls also consciously came to the manor and began to do farm work.
Among the fields, the trolls began to turn the soil, planting potatoes, corn, peanuts, sugar beets, wheat and melons.
These crops are the only crops that Xiangen can plant, and they all need to be arranged. The farmland in the front yard is temporarily planted with beets, peanuts and oil melons.
I planted potatoes once before, and it takes a long time to make up for the fertilizer in the field.
Therefore, the staple food was not planted on a large scale. The large open space in the backyard has now been reclaimed into farmland, one-third of which is grown for corn, one-third for wheat, and the remaining one-third for potatoes.
Although the taste is average, those potatoes can be eaten in two or three months, and one mu of land is ten tons. Who can refuse this kind of grain!
As the chief wizard of the Frost Troll Tribe, Auda also came to the field. He was assigned a test field, and he was going to try to use wizards to cultivate plants in the direction of greater yield and faster harvest.
Witchcraft is an alternative way of using natural magic, with the power to blaspheme life. One of its functions, like a delicate gene editor, can change the direction of the will of the life caster to a certain extent.
Such mutations are more stable if they arise from seeds or embryos.
In the distant era, the trolls relied on special witchcraft to obtain high-yield food and a large number of soldiers of a new race who were not afraid of death, and finally were able to divide the world with the elves.
In the end, because of his unscrupulous style and brutal rule, he was spurned by most of the created races, and finally all kinds of rebellion and betrayal pushed the trolls to the altar.
Some trolls in the continent are still doing similar experimental research, but their time has finally passed, and most of the current trolls have become pitiful creatures struggling to survive.
Xiang En looked at Auda, who was dancing in front of a corn seedling, shook his head and walked away.
He doesn't despise the trolls, on the contrary, he thinks that their witchcraft is very miraculous and can change lives. However, the casting process is difficult to control, and it requires a lot of time to interfere, so there are still many disadvantages of witchcraft. The key is that He can't learn.
After leaving the farmland, Xiang En went to the iron workshop built next to the fence in the backyard.
This iron-making workshop is run by Markey and Duncan. In addition to making iron for Xiang En, the two of them work with several trolls to burn at least a ton of pig iron every day.
Walking into the already burning iron workshop, I saw several trolls pulling bellows and shoveling charcoal, while Markey and Duncan were forging the freshly burned pig iron.
The pig iron is the size of an irregular human head. Duncan is responsible for fixing it on the anvil with iron pliers, and Markey is waving a sledgehammer to beat it, and when it is knocked into a large discus, they will be quenched by them and finished. After quenching it will be thrown aside.
If necessary, it will be processed into other shapes.
Seeing that the employees were all working hard, Xiang En couldn't help nodding, and with his hands behind his back, he walked over to the iron-bearing sandstones that had not been thrown into the furnace to be calcined.
He couldn't help but think of a question that he hadn't paid much attention to. The iron ore has been dug for almost two months, is it still not finished yet?
Iron ore is not a precious mineral. There are iron ore in many mountains, and most of them may be open-pit, but the reserves are very small and have no value for development.
Xiang En has never cared about the reserves of iron ore, just because this thing is really common, and there is a mountain next to it, if a place is dug, just find another place to dig, it's just a long way to go thing.
But it's been two months, and dozens of tons of iron have been produced. Bourne, who went to mine, is still digging. Could it be that there are a lot of reserves?
This question may not be understood until Byrne pulls the ox cart back at noon.
Patting away the injured sand, Xiang En turned his head and patted the dull-eyed Maki on the shoulder, encouraging: "Work hard, I will give you two a rabbit as a reward next month!"
You seem to have said this last month...
Maki turned his head to look at Xiang En's encouraging eyes, his expression collapsed and he looked like he was about to cry.
Think about how easy their jobs used to be, even if they had to be on call 24 hours a day, they had plenty of time to enjoy and rest.
Since starting iron making ~IndoMTL.com~ he and Duncan have been working nearly fifteen hours a day.
There is a fixed production target. The trolls will leave as soon as it gets dark. The two of them are busy working to complete the work at night.

A week or two is better, but after working for two whole months, every day before dawn, I have to get up to burn charcoal, and the two of them have not come from the troll until the troll is gone at night. Drag your tired body back to rest.
Every time I don't get much substantive rewards, if I want to be transferred, I will press it back with special treatment during a special period.
But so what!
Xiang En looked at Maki's crying face, and the smile became brighter. It's not that they really want to squeeze the two to death, but the brains of trolls are really not very good, and it is easy to make mistakes. How hard it is for the two of you!
Maki sold out his crying face, and under Xiang En's gaze, he slowly revealed an ugly smile, "Yes, it's all for the boss, so there's no reward... I'll do it too!"
"Okay!" After receiving a satisfactory reply, Xiang En put down the hand on Maji's shoulder this time, and said, "Don't worry, you will be able to change jobs soon... Hey, just tomorrow! Tomorrow you will bring Two bullock carts, Bourne and Hogan, go to the mountains to dig some salt mines, it should take a few days, you should take a good rest these few days, and by the way, come back from digging two bullock carts iron mines."
Maki was stunned at first, then showed a look of excitement and surprise.
This made Duncan on the side look anxious, "Old... boss, what about me?"
"The outside world is very dangerous now. Iron is an important material. We need iron to strengthen our walls, and iron will also be used for future weapons. Without enough iron, there is no enough security. In short... Please work hard!"
