Mountain and Forest Kingdom

Chapter 82 Moving



"Master Lawrence!"

Seravan has a new master and recognizes the new master from his status.

Lawrence heard this and said, "Call me Mr. Lawrence, and you will work here for me until spring comes."

Seravan and Itty remained silent.

Lawrence asked: "What's the answer? When I talk to you, you have to answer me. When Friesen asked you to do things, you also responded to him with silence?"

Seravan hurriedly said: "I will obey!"

Lawrence found that most barbarians did not know how to reply.

Being able to negotiate and respond normally after being asked by others is generally an ability that only wealthy people with formal education have.

For barbarians, it is probably a slightly better response than beasts.

Give them food and clothes, and they will quickly get away from danger with the food and clothes. There is no concept of kindness.

Fortunately, the barbarians in Pumixiu Town have had more interactions with each other due to the long-lasting peace, and have developed relatively complex concepts.

After all, they are not beasts, but they are not qualified slaves either.

The Southern Kingdom absolutely does not like these barbarian slaves. They are neither docile nor smart, and there is a high probability of killing their masters.

Who among the southern nobles with normal brains would use barbarian captives as slaves?

Lawrence's main reason for exchanging slaves for this couple was that they could communicate more easily than the rest of the slaves.

He saw gratitude and recognition in the eyes of Seravan and Itty, especially when they met for the first time today and found the two men giving him a humble gesture of awe while standing behind Friesen.

Being able to communicate was the reason why Lawrence accepted them. Otherwise, they would simply exchange three female slaves for food. At least Lawrence had no place for those three female slaves.

"You don't have to answer like this. From now on, if I ask you to do something, just say: Yes, Mr. Lawrence."

"If you don't do it, you'll get beaten."

Lawrence explains specific situations and ways to respond.

Seravan and Itty looked at Lawrence nervously and did not respond as they should.

They are only afraid and nervous now. Maybe fists and whips can let them know to work, but they cannot understand Lawrence's rules for the time being.

Lawrence felt strange: When I communicated with Andrew, Salyl, and Doug, everything was normal.

If Andrew and Doug had such a strong relationship, what about Emma, ​​who was negotiating with me normally?

Are the barbarians here in the north unable to understand this simple conversation?

Lawrence quickly remembered Emma and soon discovered why.

Emma has always been Sariel's partner, and is often responsible for negotiations between the village and the mountain. She is not weak in courage or initiative in negotiation.

When the Pumixiu people were attacked and Emma's children and brother died in this disaster, Emma bravely took up farm tools to fight for revenge.

In order to have a better life in the future, Emma will also participate in the war against the Domu people with her family.

Although Emma is not as powerful as Salil, she is a brave woman.

On the contrary, the two Pumi Xiu people in front of me are the garbage holding them back.

"Now go to work, you two go get water first."

Lawrence arranged things for them and personally took them to the waterside to break the ice and get water.

Although there are some problems in communication, it is not a big deal. As long as you follow along and learn it, you will almost know it.

They also have basic living abilities. Apart from not being good at fighting and not daring to resist, the other thing is the relationship between thinking and knowledge, which is not as easy to understand as educated people.

Sophia was now very distrustful of other slaves, so she went to Lawrence and whispered: "Master, should we stay here and watch them, or should we go to the mountains?"

"I think it's better to stay," Salil said.

Lawrence has a different opinion, "The mountains are more suitable for living and development, and there is more land that can be expanded. There is a metal mining area nearby, and it will be used as a trading location in the future."

"There are more grasses and shrubs on the mountain to feed livestock, and it is close to the river. I plan to cultivate farmland near the area where the river passes, which will also solve the problem of food in the future."

Sophia helped and said: "The house on the mountain is very warm! It is much warmer than here. It is very comfortable when sleeping at night!"

Lawrence continued to Salil: "Selaven and Itty can take care of some of the livestock here. From now on, Seravan will be responsible for mining, Ittie will be responsible for collecting firewood, cooking and raising pigs, and we will live on the mountain by ourselves. "

"If you need anything, go to Pumixiu Town or trade in the mountains."

Salil still liked a quiet life. After hearing Lawrence's description, she nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Lawrence was relieved, but also felt the responsibility on his shoulders.

The main reason for going to the mountain was not knowing what Andrew would do and what those Valkyries would do after he killed Avari.

After learning about the savage war culture, Lawrence must do something to save himself and his family's lives.

Lawrence and Sariel quickly gathered the things they needed recently and moved to the mountains using two Dom sheep.

Sophia was leading a sheep behind, and the remaining five sheep would be led up tomorrow.

Only chickens and pigs are left at the foot of the mountain, and the sheep suitable for grazing are taken up the mountain to graze.

Lawrence walked towards the mountain, looking at the rugged mountain road in front of him. Because he had chosen a safe road before, the journey up and down the mountain was now shortened to two hours of walking and about seventy minutes of riding a sheep.

However, it can still be shortened. For example, in some steep places that require detours, you can directly use ropes to go up and down, or you can dig steps into the steep stone walls.

This matter is estimated to take several years.

Lawrence said to the two beautiful girls leading the sheep beside him: "After the snow melts in winter, we can make some ladders and bridges out of wood, so that the up and down the mountain can be shortened to less than an hour."

Salil showed a shocked expression, "Can we also build a bridge on the mountain?"

Lawrence said casually: "You can, or even if necessary, make a suspension bridge that is lowered from the mountain. You can put it down when you walk, and pull it up when you don't need it."

He was talking about the kind of suspension bridge in front of the ancient city gate. Salil had never seen anything like that. After thinking about it, she showed an even more shocked expression. It was obvious that she imagined something that was deviating from common sense based on her poor knowledge and imagination. s things.

"Can you do that kind of thing?" Salil looked at Lawrence curiously.

Lawrence knew very well that Salil's thoughts were different from his own. "I don't have that ability at the moment. It will be fine when we have more people in the future."

Salil nodded and took note of this matter.

Lawrence quickly took Saryl and Sophia back to the stone hut on the mountain.

Standing in front of the house and looking at the lower and lower hillsides around him, Lawrence saw a large area of ​​fertile soil and land to be developed.
