Chapter 221 74. The annoying Annan

Flying edelweiss falls in the quiet bay.

In the dead of winter, people become hypothermic, and the freezing wind and snow quietly blend into the earth after falling on the soil. This heavy snow will make plants that have been dormant for a winter wake up faster.

The bad weather did not dampen the enthusiasm of the residents, who braved the heavy snow to prepare for the next spring plowing.

The hands embedded on all sides of the clock tower mean that residents can clearly know the time no matter where they look up. The glacial rivers and bays are showing signs of melting, and the raw materials for building harbors and shipyards have been neatly stacked on the beach. superior.

As soon as the snow stopped on the third day, the villagers couldn't wait to lead their cattle to the countryside and stand on both sides of the road to loosen the soil and fertilize.

The Lord's Mansion is beginning to take shape. The preserved wood grains and carvings combine the thickness of the north and the natural style of the elves.

Annan went in once out of curiosity, and the echo was clearer than expected... ... He wanted to choose some maids, but Ingrid said that was not possible - unless the maids in the Lord's Mansion were all over thirty years old and similar in size to Aunt Susan.

The north is getting warmer day by day. After the first rainfall at the end of March, Xingyue Bay officially started farming. Bags of wheat seeds were sent to the farmland, and the farmers worked hard.

This busyness lasted for several days. One night, Annan stepped out of the Dawn Tavern and heard the sound of tide brought by the sea breeze.

The snow on the bay and the ice also began to melt, and the glacial river in the north turned into a gurgling stream, a moist and abrupt riverbed without a piece of ice.

The prepared port began to set sail. Fabian Clemonger, who was hired at a high price from Breeze City and was said to have been "one of the designers of the Royal Port of the Tatooine Empire", proudly sat on the swaying sampan. , select the location of the port.

Annan felt that he was indeed a big shot from the imperial capital. No matter the neat streets, exquisite houses, or towering clock tower, he didn't stop for a moment.

Not long after, Fabian Clemonger returned dissatisfied after strolling around the bay.

He said that the bay can only be a shallow port at best, and because it is in the north, it is frozen for half of the year. But for the closed Xingyue Bay, as long as it can be navigable to the outside world, it will be fine.

Annan and Fabian Clemonger decided on the location of the port: a swing-rope trestle hanging from the upper end of the bay's crescent. This location will not change the town layout, nor will it damage the scenery of Xingyue Bay.

The next day, they began to build the foundation and lay the trestle.

Sowing, construction, and gathering, Xingyue Bay is full of busy scenes, but Annan has nothing to do at this time, sitting boredly in the house signing the documents sent by Ingrid.

They are all trivial matters: such as the collection of limestone mines, the sales of cement, the income from two magic videos, the goods and trade volume brought by merchants.

The eldest sister Idilia said in the evening letter that this is what a lord should do. So Annan wanted to bring these things to the Osuronde Territory with the Fire Crow, and he almost did it. If he hadn't thought of the consequences, he might have made the eldest sister and the second sister come to Breeze City.

The next day, it was sunny and sunny. Annan, who had nothing to do, ran out. Respond to the respectful greetings of the people along the way. The workers were busy working on the beach. Annan watched them from a distance for a while, close to the glacier river. This river originating from the snow-capped mountains has not completely thawed, and there is only an icy winding stream at the bottom of the river bed.

The women were washing clothes in the upper reaches of the river, until the rough words were carried by the wind, and Annan fled back to Xingyue Bay in a hurry.

Mr. Victor was teaching the children, and Annan appeared in front of the window, looking at the future of Xingyue Bay - the children sat at the desks and listened to the lectures.

In addition to Abby's brother and the children in the orphanage, there are also some older children, such as Joan.

“Lord!”

The children of the active age quickly discovered Annan. Some shouted, some waved their arms, and some looked timidly.

"What are you doing here?"

Every wrinkle on Mr. Victor's face was full of dissatisfaction with Annan for disrupting order in the classroom. "I just...I'm leaving right now."

Annan was good-natured and winked at Joan, who was sitting among the children, and the latter turned his head.

Seeing Mr. Victor's face stretched into a daisy when facing the children, Annan suddenly thought, the top 100 mage apprentices in the Kingdom of Ruikan'er? It's not like he was coaxed into losing his temper by a group of children who were about the same height as goblins.

Thinking of the goblins, Annan ran to the factory area again.

The spinning mill is adjacent to the spinning wheel factory. After a winter of digestion, the price of cotton fabrics in the northern market has stabilized - about one-third lower than before Susan's spinning machine.

The cotton-padded clothes that originally cost eight or nine silver coins now only cost six silver coins.

The Susan spinning machine is much worse... The spinning machine originally priced at 30 gold has been reduced to 10 gold, which is still half the price of those spinning machines produced by goblins and workshops - you put the spindles up ? We also put the spindles up and added 15 spindles - you increased the number of spindles to 15? We increase it to 30. It only takes two female workers or an animal to turn it, and it only costs 10 gold.

In the face of these radical improvements, Annan's "original" advantage disappeared.

The spinning wheel factory is not working, there are only goblins playing and playing in the open space. They gathered around chattering, hoping that Annan would let them do something. The tribe also had a bunch of goblins waiting for them to send money back.

Annan thought for a moment and said, "Why not bring your people to Xingyue Bay?"

The goblins burst into noisy cheers, then circled, hugged, and hit the wall in the open space.

"What do you want so many goblins for?" asked Dorai, the smart one among the goblins and the little leader of the goblins.

"What do you think the future of Xingyue Bay will be like?"

"An amazing city!" Dole admired sincerely.

"What else?"

"And...I live here?" The smart goblin carefully observed Annan's reaction, "This is my home?"
< br>Annan imitated Olmedo's warm smile: "This is the answer. Xingyue Bay will become a city in the future, and Xingyue Bay is your home."

Dorai couldn't wait to go back to the lair to bring the tribesmen hiding underground, but Annan said that just a few people would be enough.

“What can we do for you?” Excited and then worried, Dorai could not imagine how his tribe could help Annan.

“Continue to build spinning machines and improve them.”

The quality of cotton yarn in multi-spindle spinning machines is slightly worse than that of single-spindles, but poor people are not picky.

As well as these spinning machines can be sold to the south, the Principality of Keating should not have time to have spinning machines everywhere.

Annan went to visit the female workers next door. The cotton yarn they spun became one of the main goods given to the merchants. After coming out of the factory, Annan continued to wander around with nothing to do, walking around in front of busy people, and finally aroused public outrage.
