Chapter 35 Winter Trivia

   For Bruno, the long winter is boring and boring.

   There is no need for Bruno to worry about the training of recruits. Someone is solely responsible for the construction of the sky garden. The sugar mill is operating normally, and the amount of salt produced by the Cape Salt Farm is constantly increasing.

  Everything is constantly developing in stability and improvement.

   Therefore, Bruno's life these days is extremely dull.

   I have to sleep until I wake up naturally every morning, and then eat a little bit of food at random, and then start to scribble on the parchment paper.

   The memories of the previous life must always be written down. Otherwise, Bruno is worried that some advanced crafts and techniques may be forgotten by him over time.

   Bruno felt that he had done a lot of serious things during this period of time, which did not match the original "Prodigal Son" personality, so he named the chef of the lord's castle an honorary knight.

   But what I have to mention is that this new knight does have a high cooking talent, and he quickly figured out the cooking tricks, which is much better than Bruno's cooking after only a few times.

   Bruno originally wanted to do more things in the winter, such as trying to set up a paper-making workshop, or building more fishing boats to go fishing, or repairing the roads in Idar.

   However, these plans that should have been unimpeded were hampered by money.

The investment in the Hanging Garden and the Standing Army is a bit overspend. The construction of the Hanging Garden alone costs nearly a thousand gold coins every month. If it were not for the strong income of sea salt and sugar, the average earl would have been forced to declare bankruptcy and stop work. NS.

   The original budget for building the Hanging Garden was about 500 gold coins per month, but in order to complete the work as soon as possible, Bruno recruited more serfs in Idar and expanded the number of production teams to fourteen.

   The cost of the standing army is naturally huge. Money, food, and manpower all require careful calculation and consideration.

  Compared with these huge expenses, the money needed to collect feces suddenly appears to be much less.

   Lin Lin’s new expenditure made Bruno not have enough gold coins to toss about other things for a while, so he was rarely settled down.

   Since the people sent out to pick and buy sugar beets have returned with a full load and have found a stable source of sugar beets, the output of sugar factories has gradually stabilized, and the monthly output of white sugar can be about four hundred jin.

   Actually, for a workshop, such output is somewhat low, but Bruno has no plans to expand reproduction in a short period of time.

  Because at this stage there is only one kind of people who can consume sugar, and that is the nobility.

   The reason why white sugar maintains the trend of being priceless but not marketable is entirely due to the serious imbalance between supply and demand.

   If a large amount of white sugar floods into the market, it will not only lead to a drop in the price of white sugar, but also make people doubt the source of these white sugar.

The principle of    beet sugar production is not complicated, at least the production of brown sugar should not be difficult to detect.

   Once this huge role of beets is discovered, the cost of purchasing beets will rise dramatically, which Bruno does not want to see.

   After all, at least so far, the distribution of sugar beets in Idar is not very widespread, and it will take a lot of time for large-scale cultivation.

   He doesn't want to see his raw material supply being choked by others.

   The salt ponds in the Cape Salt Field have all been opened, and the area of ​​the salt ponds is gradually expanding.

  Sea salt is greatly affected by climate change, and the salt production in winter is generally lower than that in summer.

   But even so, Idar’s sea salt production has doubled this winter.

   However, the usual day that originally belonged to Bruno was broken by a sudden news.

   A large magic crystal mine has been discovered in the Almis Mountains!

   When Old Ford told Bruno the news, Bruno was idly basking in the castle.

   After listening to Old Ford, Bruno almost jumped up from his chair.

   That's a magic crystal mine!

   No matter which world you are in, anyone who dares to say that he has a mine at home is not a simple person.

   It often means wealth, power, connections, and deep development potential.

   Bruno has been in this world for a long time, and his understanding of the world in front of him has become more and more in-depth, so he has long heard of the magic crystal mine.

  In this world, everything related to magic is extremely precious.

  The magic crystal mine naturally also belongs to this category.

   Magic Crystal is a special ore, which is an indispensable help for most wizards.

  It has many functions, and the most direct and common application is the small blue bottle that can be used as a blue bottle for the mage.

   Of course, the so-called small blue bottle does not mean that it can directly provide magic power to the wizard, but that the magic crystal can serve as a container for storing magic power.

   It is really just equivalent to a bottle, but this bottle can contain pure magic power, which will greatly reduce the consumption of the wizard's spiritual power when casting a spell.

   With full expectation, Bruno immediately let Old Ford lead the way and ran towards the Armis Mountains by himself.

   Magic Crystal Mine is located on the mountainside of Armis, in the depths of a dense forest. It was accidentally discovered by a serf of a production team while cutting trees and chopping wood.

   As soon as he arrived, Bruno announced the release of the serf who had discovered the magic crystal vein as a civilian and gave the lucky serf a house in the city of Idar.

   This house originally belonged to a bastard’s property, but in order to clean up his heavy sins as soon as possible, the reformed **** donated his house without hesitation.

   Hearing Bruno's award, the serf only felt a shock all over, and his heart thumped wildly.

   This... was released as a civilian?

   The serf had an incredible face. Even though he knew that Lord Earl was a benevolent person, he originally thought he would only be rewarded with a piece of white bread or a few copper plates, but he did not expect...

   myself... Is this free?

   "Although you have become a civilian, you are still a member of the production team. You have to work on the construction site before the sky garden is completed..."

   "The villain understands!" the serf said repeatedly.

   "However, since you have become a civilian, you will naturally have to calculate your wages for work on the construction site, so just like other civilians, get fifteen copper plates a month."

   "Thanks...Thank you sir..." The serf stammered excitedly, and kept thanking Lord Earl for his grace.

  ...

I wish you all a Happy New Year!

   Reunion, happy family!

   There is a high probability that this is the only update today, sorry~
