Chapter 192 Major Events in Life
Everyone went back with goods weighing hundreds of kilograms, and Salil seriously criticized Lawrence.
"Lawrence, didn't you think carefully just now?"
Lawrence was thinking about the good thing that he could eat bread tomorrow. When Sariel criticized him like this, he didn't understand why he was not thinking.
"I've thought about it seriously. Look, we have harvested a lot of wheat that can be used to make bread, as well as women who can work and give birth to children." Lawrence looked at the four women holding the wooden cart with both hands
. He is from the south, is in good health, and can do a lot of work.
Salil sighed, somewhat hating that iron could not become steel.
"Lawrence, please do the math here."
"A slave can cultivate three acres of land, and each acre can harvest five baskets of wheat. He can also work to cut wood, collect firewood, build houses, and can do many things."
" You exchanged two decks of cards for three slaves. Think about it, these three slaves can harvest fifteen baskets of grain a year, and can do many things. They can also continue to grow wheat next year." "Think about it
, Did you suffer a lot when you first exchanged playing cards for wheat?" "
This can obviously be exchanged for the same price, but you now do this and then that, and you suffer a loss."
Lawrence frowned and calculated, quickly shaking his head. Said: "Your calculation is too messy. According to what you said, one hen that can lay eggs is equal to more than a dozen hens, so use one hen that can lay eggs for three hens that have never laid eggs. Is it a loss-making transaction?"
Salil thought blankly, "What hen? I'm not talking about hens. Four slaves exchanged three decks of cards, which means one deck of cards is one point three and three slaves. You A deck of cards equals one slave and nine baskets of wheat..."
Lawrence didn't want to listen to her nonsense, and Reglo and others didn't understand Salil's nonsense, and they didn't want to understand it.
Salil is like the kind of person who has learned something in an alley. It is obviously a very simple thing, but he starts to talk nonsense about various theorems and formulas, and then the more he calculates, the more confused he becomes.
Learning this kind of thing sometimes depends on talent. After all, sometimes in terms of arithmetic and logic, there is only one right path, and it depends on who has better luck.
Usually this kind of luck in learning is called talent.
Just like the dangerous intuition of a warrior or the touch of a marksman, it can no longer be described by luck alone.
Salil had no talent in mathematics. Lawrence simply refuted: "Do you want to eat bread tomorrow, or do you want to wait until next year to eat bread?" "
Tomorrow!" Salil answered decisively.
Lawrence explained: "That's right. Don't worry about how much a deck of cards equals. Anyway, now we want to eat bread, and we can eat bread!" "I will help you make
another deck of playing cards when you get home. You Make dough with a stone mill with Delen, and bake bread for dinner at night!"
Salil nodded, finally letting go of the confusing problem that she had been thinking about.
Delen felt that Salil had finally returned to normal, so he came over and said: "There is something wrong with Salil's brain, but I also feel that you are selling at a loss. Fresh boar teeth are hard to find, especially when you make them so beautifully. Lawrence
smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. The most important thing is eating."
Seravan was also thinking about that group of people.
"Master, that group of people will come again. If we make more playing cards, we can exchange them for more wheat and women!"
Lawrence smiled and said, "It's not that easy. This time they made money by getting my dominoes." If you come here next time, it will definitely be to exchange cheap wheat and women for dominoes." "
If you want to use the playing cards made of wood chips in your hands to exchange for their wheat, they will definitely not come here again. These people They traveled here for half a month, not just for the wooden cards that they can make themselves."
Seravan was silent. They, the lumberyard workers, would play cards to kill time in their free time, and everyone had a deck of cards in their hands.
Seeing Lawrence exchange playing cards for grain and women with outsiders, Seravan and others also felt that outsiders were stupid and naive, and would trade baskets of wheat and beautiful women for the wood chips in their hands.
Lawrence quickly took everyone back. Seravan and others continued to work in the lumberyard, and calm was quickly restored in the manor.
The four new women were arranged in the wooden shed where they usually bask in the sun. According to the old rules, they sat here for a day to observe the situation and figure out what others were doing.
Most men are not allowed to approach the wooden house casually. The people passing by the wooden house are mainly maids and working nuns and peasant women. These people have long been accustomed to this kind of thing and do not look at the four new women who have joined them. They appear very indifferent.
Lawrence sat chopping wood with a hatchet and making playing cards for the evening.
Sophia and Saryl are learning to make bread in the house, while Delenn and Khalan are building a bath in the back of the house.
Bull quickly walked over to Lawrence and sat down next to him, helping Lawrence make the wood chips.
"Master, are these four women pregnant?"
Lawrence looked at the four women, who were sitting in the shadow of the wooden shed sleeping, or looking around.
Lawrence asked directly to the four people: "Are you four pregnant? Tell the truth."
The four women shook their heads quickly.
One of them said: "No, we are all very healthy, no teeth have been lost, and we are not pregnant."
Lawrence said: "Well, you can just sit here. If you poop or pee, just ask the maid in white. , they will take you to solve it."
"Someone will bring you food when you eat, and you will be given a house and a job tomorrow. Just stay here today and don't talk to others." All four women
said Looking at Lawrence, this new owner is much better than expected.
Bull ignored the four slaves and continued with Lawrence: "Salil is not pregnant yet. Master, do you want to try another woman?"
Lawrence's hands stopped working.
"Others?"
Bull suggested: "This kind of thing is very important. Generally, men with women and women with men are almost pregnant at this time, but you and Salil have slept together for so long, and you haven't..."
Lawrence said: "I'm not in a hurry, just take your time. Salil and I are still young now, especially as there are still many things going on here in the manor."
Bull thought for a moment and asked: "I know Sophia is still young, you Have you ever done it with Delenn and Kehalan?"
Lawrence explained: "Deren's character is very Valkyrie. If you want to fuck her, you have to hit her first. You know, her fists are so powerful."
"As for Kharan... it's about the same."
Lawrence didn't know how to explain Khalan's matter. He didn't say he was unwilling, but he didn't show his willingness either.
Bull said: "I asked the Durila people that a man and a woman can have more than ten children there. Lawrence, you are a noble man, so you should have many children." "We have so many women here now
. There are only so many men, Lawrence, if you want to..."
Bull came close to Lawrence and whispered in his ear: "If you want to confirm whether it's your problem, I can try it on me for you. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else." Lawrence's ears were a little itchy,
but He said gratefully: "Bull, you are a good woman, but don't worry about the child. I am sure there will be no problem." After seeing what Lawrence said, Bull said, "Well,
when you need it, you can call me." Me."
Bull quickly went to do other things, and Lawrence also came into the house to work with the half-finished wood chips.
When all the witches returned to the house in the evening, Lawrence told them about Bull.
After hearing this, Kehalan said seriously: "This is a problem. We are all wizards. Each witch can only have one heir, but a wizard can have multiple descendants."
Salil did not understand, "Why a wizard You can have many children, but a witch can only have one?"
Kharan explained: "Because to conceive a witch and wizard who has inherited the mystery, a lot of energy needs to be stripped from the body and given to the child." "
But the wizard cannot Similarly, the child who inherits life from the mother's body and is born absorbs the life of the mother. Many mortals will die in childbirth due to the birth of such offspring. Only witches can generally withstand this test." Lawrence: "In other words, I and
I If an ordinary woman gives birth to a child, there is a high chance that both the pregnant woman and the child will die in childbirth?"
Kharan nodded, "That's right, and it will be easy to give birth to strange dead things."
Lawrence was silent For a moment.
What does it have to do with me? I'm a human, not a wizard!
Kehalan said: "You can play whatever you want. If a healthy child can be born, even a half-blood wizard will be a good thing for us."
Lawrence nodded: "Yes, I understand."
Kehalan added Said: "We witches and ordinary people cannot have children. Only wizards and men with extremely strong physiques can give birth to life in our bodies."
Lawrence was shocked and turned pale with fear. Am I going to have no descendants?
Can't?
Lawrence looked at Kehalan nervously, "Ordinary people can't get a witch pregnant? Do you need berserkers and wizards? What about Sophia's father?" Sophia explained: "
My father is a knight, I don't remember. It's too clear, but he should be very powerful."
Khalan is a pure-blood wizard, Delenn's father is a tribal warrior, Sariel's father is a fierce man like Andrew, and Sophia's father is also a powerful knight.
I...
"I don't think I am a wizard." Lawrence looked at everyone decisively and sincerely, "I am an ordinary person. How can I have a child with a witch now?" Kehalan smiled and said, "Don't worry
. Your talent is to hide the power of the wizard, but the power of the wizard does not come from brute force and witchcraft, but from the soul. No matter how fragile you are, your seeds have infinite possibilities!" "I am really an ordinary person
. !" Lawrence said anxiously: "I can't control crows at all, and I can't... don't know anything else."
Lawrence didn't expect that he didn't know anything else. It seemed that except for crows, he didn't know anything else from the wizard. Are they related?
Wisdom...that's true!
Delen laughed and said: "I know, you just want to go to bed with those women first."
Salil showed a look of realization and said very understandingly: "Lawrence, you can go if you want. I know you have always been like this. Man."
Lawrence was helplessly silent, and only then did he realize how considerate Salil was.
In fact, Salil never stopped him from doing this at all, and she even took the initiative to ask him if he wanted to go to the town or go to the Clodagh tribe to relax.
After all, Andrew has a lot of needs in this kind of thing. Regardless of his usual seriousness, in fact, with the Cloda people and the Pumi Xiu people...
Lawrence suddenly thought of a very big thing!
"Khalan, after ordinary people have children with witches, can they still have children with other women?" "
No." Kehalan said with certainty: "Except that wizards can have children with multiple women and witches, Even powerful knights and berserkers cannot have children again after having children with witches, and they will not have any offspring." The four
women looked at Lawrence's panic expression, and soon they all looked at Lawrence with solemn expressions.
"Lawrence, you... you're not a wizard?"
Lawrence gritted his teeth and affirmed: "Yes, I'm not!"
"Gah~" The crow crawled in from the window. When he saw the wheat drying here today, he came over to eat it. I took a few bites and checked to see if there was anything else to eat.
Lawrence looked at the unfortunate crow and had no intention of paying attention to it.
Delen said solemnly: "Try asking this crow to come over."
Lawrence sighed and shouted to the crow: "Come here."
The crow quickly spread its wings, flew over obediently, and landed on Lawrence's shoulder. superior.
Sophia said to Salil and Kharan: "No matter whether the master is a wizard or not, he is my master! Didn't we agree to stay here with the master?" She looked left and right, hoping that these
two Sister, don't worry so much about wizards.
Sophia doesn't have the ability to be a wizard, so she doesn't value this.
Salil nodded, "Sofia is right, when I was with Lawrence, I felt that he was a very weak person and would be beaten to death without my protection, so I had to be by his side to protect him. "
Lawrence was both amused and touched. It turned out that this was how Salil saw him.
It seems like that’s how you saw it from the beginning?
Lawrence suddenly looked back and found that he seemed to have not changed much, and Salil also had not changed much.
Kehalan spread his hands, "Me too. Regardless of whether he is a wizard or not, I have surrendered anyway."
Lawrence cast a grateful look at Kehalan, and Kehalan smiled charmingly, apparently wanting to Gonna eat him.
Now only Delen came to follow Lawrence because of the wizard.
Sophia, Salil, and Khalan all first accepted Lawrence as an ordinary person, and then accepted Lawrence as a wizard. Now that they discovered that Lawrence is still an ordinary person, they all accepted it naturally.
Delen held his hands in front of him and said coldly: "It has nothing to do with me. Anyway, even if he is a wizard, if he wants to have sex with me, he has to defeat me first." Delen was very angry at this deception, but he did not leave
. Instead, he chose to stay angry.
Lawrence felt much more relaxed, grabbed the crow and put it on the table, "Let's go out and play."
The crow quickly flew away.
The four women and girls suddenly looked at Lawrence in confusion.
Lawrence quickly explained: "If you catch it and let it go, it will run away! This is a rule, not a witchcraft!"
Kehalan looked at Lawrence with a puzzled look on his face, "Then how did you call the chickens last time?"
"Habit! It's a habit! I shout the same thing every time I feed the chickens. If you shout..."
Delen Said: "If we shout, those chickens will come too?"
"Not necessarily..." Lawrence explained anxiously: "The sound is different. I have been shouting since I was a kid!"
Salil looked at Kharan, "Yes. Is there any way to tell whether Lawrence is a wizard?"
The experienced Kharan replied: "Wizards will attract witches, and witches will find wizards." "
One, two, three, four." The little girl Sophia pointed her finger. Counting the four witches at the table.
Salil frowned, as if she was stuck in a math problem, and looked at Lawrence with confusion and worry.
"But Lawrence said he was not a wizard."
Kehalan thought for a few seconds, and then quickly hesitated: "Could it be that... he even deceived himself?"
All kinds of evidence showed that Lawrence was a wizard. Only Lawrence himself said without any evidence that he was not a wizard.
If you put it outside, no one would believe it.
"Time will explain everything." Lawrence stood up and looked out the window solemnly, "You don't need to care about whether I am a wizard or not, because it does not affect that I am better than you!" If explanation is useless, then there is no explanation
!
Lawrence gained confidence from Sophia and her words, just believe me!
Delen hummed: "Are you better than me?"
Lawrence turned around and said seriously to Delen: "Pay attention to your attitude, I am the master of this place, the prophet here!" "
This place started from scratch to now, no If you rely on me, who are you relying on?"
Delen turned his head and looked away, but he admitted Lawrence's words honestly.
"That's right." Kehalan thought about two different outcomes. "Whether it's a wizard or not, it has no impact on Delen and I, but it does have an impact on Salil and Sophia." Lawrence said directly:
" I will shoulder my responsibilities, leave my own descendants first, and then spend my life accompanying you!"
Both Salil and Sophia nodded, this is indeed the best solution.
Sophia had long planned to follow Lawrence for the rest of her life, and Salil had also planned to live alone for the rest of her life before she met Lawrence. Whether or not to have children would not have much impact on the two of them.
"I have no problem." Salil was finally able to speak her mind at this time, "I am actually afraid of giving birth to a child. If my child is an ordinary person, then according to the rules of the witch, I have to kill him and give birth to another child. Until a gifted child is finally born." "
I think in this case, it is better not to have a child."
Salil feels that it is good now and she no longer has to worry about such terrible things.
Delen stood up, "Train with me tomorrow, and I will train you into a powerful berserker!" Before
Lawrence could speak, Salil who was sitting there shook her head, "It won't work, Delen." , Lawrence is lazy, timid and afraid of pain, and has no potential to become a berserker." "
Who said that?" Lawrence looked at Salil unconvinced, and then looked at Delen, "We'll start tomorrow! I have never given up the idea of conquering Delenn and pressing Delenn under me!"
Delenn smiled approvingly, "This is like a man."
Sophia and Salil were not optimistic. They both knew that Lawrence and Delenn's gap.
