The Wizard’s Fairy Tale

Oh, please, old John, don't worry, it's just a trick! Besides, those things have to be composted before they can be used effectively! William shrugged.

Compost? A compost pit? Your lord, what is that pit?

That's right, it was dug for composting. Old John, you will never say that digging this pit is useless. William nodded, confirming Old John's guess.

Old John was overjoyed, and was about to ask William how to compost, when he suddenly remembered that this was the lord's secret, and he couldn't inquire about it at will, so he held back abruptly.

In fact, if Old John wanted to ask, William would tell him.

Because this is really just an ordinary thing for William.

Compost is a kind of organic fertilizer made by using animal and plant remains and excrement containing fertilizer components, plus soil and minerals to be mixed and piled up, fermented and decomposed, and microbially decomposed under high temperature and humid conditions.

The purpose of digging pits is to facilitate the fermentation of fertilizers, but not too deep, not more than one meter.

Every 20 days or so, the fertilizer must be plowed again, and the fertilizer can be brought into the field for use after three months!

Old John said sternly, So that's the case, Lord Baron. Old John is too stupid to understand your intentions.

You are not stupid, old John, I should tell you clearly, but now it seems that it is not too late! William chuckled.

Master Baron, please rest assured, I will definitely supervise the villagers and ask them to send more manure over...for composting! Old John is not very used to the word composting.

Just let it develop naturally, old John! William said casually, no matter how powerful this fertilizer is, it will only be effective after harvesting next year, but the attack of the lizardmen is coming soon in winter.

This is the big deal that can't wait!

Although William said it easily, Old John still didn't dare to be casual in his heart, but secretly remembered it in his heart.

Old John, do you know the purpose of my doing this now? William asked Old John.

Old John bowed to William, Of course, Lord Baron, your wisdom is like the stars in the sky!

After a pause, Old John asked again strangely, The baron, what did you let those villagers find?

I'm very useful! William pursed his lips, I used it to build the wall!

Building a wall? Lord Baron, what kind of stone and soil do you want to use to build a wall? Old John exclaimed.

In Old John's perception, there are several types of wall construction, either tamped with soil, or polished stones, then stacked stones, and then glued with something.

But no matter which one, the construction cost is not low, especially the second one, the cost is even higher!

Well, from a certain point of view, you can also say the same! In short, you help me keep an eye on it at all times, and show me what the villagers find at any time! They are very important! William said in a dignified tone.

If he couldn't find those things, William wouldn't be able to build a thick wall in three or four months with the people in the small village of Enisei!

And if there is no wall, William thinks it's better for him to admit that he is cowardly, obediently go to Patras to take refuge, and then he will grow up wretchedly, instead of staying here to give away his head.

Yes! Lord Baron! I will definitely find what you want for you! Seeing that William was so serious, Old John also solemnly promised.

William nodded. William was more at ease with Old John's ability, except for being a little bit stingy.

For housekeepers, though, this isn't necessarily a drawback.

After a moment of silence, Old John suddenly said again, Master Baron, if you want to build a wall, then I think it is even more necessary for you to lower the treatment of the guards!

The treatment you give to the guards is too high. In fact, it can be lowered. The money saved can be used for the construction of the wall! Regarding the construction of the wall,

Old John agreed with both hands, and he also felt that a simple wooden fence was not safe!

But when it comes to the treatment of the guards, he is indeed quite critical!

I don't think, Old John, the members of the guards will fight the lizardmen with me in the future! What if the salary is lower? William said.

Lizard people? Baron, lizard people don't necessarily exist! Maybe they are just lies made up by those pariahs to pay less taxes. Maybe a few over-hungry beasts come over in winter, but as long as there are walls and a powerful baron Sir, if you sit in town yourself, there is nothing you can’t solve! Old John said disapprovingly, since he had been dubious about the existence of lizardmen.

Old John, I regret to tell you that the existence of the lizard people is true, and what the villagers say is true!

Old John was stunned for a moment, Master Baron, this joke is not very funny!

It won't do me any good to lie to you, old John! I have definite news, and, I also know that there are a lot of lizardmen, more than a hundred thousand!

Lord Baron, is your news reliable? Old John still didn't give up, looking at William with the meaning of this is not true in his eyes.

It's absolutely true! William said softly, looking into Old John's eyes.

Old John's pupils shrank suddenly, he grabbed William's arm, and hurriedly said, Master Baron, this place is too dangerous, we can't stay here any longer! Let's go to Patras immediately!

William shook his head, and with a little force, he got rid of Old John's tightly grasped hand, then spread his hand, and said to Old John, I'm sorry, Old John, we have already rejected Viscount Glenn's invitation! I I don’t think he will welcome me anymore!”

Ah! Your lord baron... This... Your lord baron, why do you still want to offend Viscount Glenn when you know this situation? Old John complained to William in a hurry.

However, the matter is already like this, and it is useless to say any more, old John, can you catch up with that knight named West? William looked at Old John with interest.

Old John was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, But, but... Maybe I send someone to chase it now, maybe it's too late!

It's too late! William poured a bucket of cold water, So do you think the guards' treatment should be lowered?

At this time, Old John couldn't listen anymore, and walked around in place, muttering to himself, and kept thinking of ways.

Old John...Old John...Old John, look at me! William didn't respond when he called him. In desperation, William had to yell at him, and then recalled Old John's soul.

Lord Baron, how do you want me to explain to the dead lady? Old John smiled wryly at William, with despair in his eyes. Back then, he promised William's mother that he would take good care of William, but now, he just watched William commit suicide. Seeking death!

He can't stop it!

Old John, don't worry! We may not be dead! William comforted Old John, The lizard people only come out when there is no food in winter! Even if they come out, they won't all come out, after all, there are still many inside. Food is just not enough to satisfy the appetite of all lizardmen, so what we have to face is only some lizardmen.”

What's more, our place is not the only exit. There are countless exits in the long dark forest. By then, there will be fewer lizardmen coming to our side! So, don't worry too much!

These are all analyzed by the magic mirror, otherwise, William would have already run away!

One hundred thousand lizardmen!

It's really a pig!

William's words sparked hope in Old John. He raised his head and looked at William, trying to find confidence from him.

Yes, old John, believe me, there is nothing wrong! William encouraged.

So, don't pay too much attention to those money now! Spend what you need! If you can't survive this winter, no amount of money can buy your life back!

The most urgent thing is to find the things I ordered, the sooner the better! And the guards, recruit me as soon as possible, and I want to train them as soon as possible, you understand?

Yes! Lord Baron! I'm going right away! Old John ran away in a hurry to finish what William told him.

This time, William didn't have to worry about Old John's work attitude anymore.

William believed that whether it was for William, or for himself or his son, Old John would definitely use all his abilities.

At the same time, Old John will no longer point fingers at William in the use of money.

Everything must be fast! William looked up at the sky and thought to himself.

Judging from the sensory point of view, the Kalachakra Hourglass still has two and a half months before it can accumulate the energy to travel through again, and it should be able to allow itself to travel through again before the arrival of the Frost Moon!

I hope that this time travel can significantly improve my strength, or get new treasures.

But this time, which world will he go to?

Is it still a fairy tale world?
