our family is gone

Chapter 229
"I understand." Grindel thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Indeed, there is still some time before the completion of treatment, and there is no need to rush into a decision.

"I don't know how much you hear about Hamlet from witches, but these things are entirely within my control.

After all, I was just an ordinary scholar in the university three months ago. I didn't even know that there was a place called Hamlet, and I didn't even know that I was the heir to the nobles. But now Hamlet is flourishing. "

Lance reminded her one last sentence, what this means is obvious, you think the conspiracy woven by the cult in Hamlet is terrible.

But I am not an ordinary person, there are people above me!

Grindel watched him fight the witch with her own eyes. Others may not know how she could not feel the strength of the witch, and she almost killed herself with a single blow.

As for Lance, who was able to fight against witches, and even kill them, she thought he was an elite cultivated by the imperial aristocratic system that spent countless resources and spent more than ten years.

But he didn't expect that he was an ordinary person three months ago. Having this kind of strength in three months is more terrifying than calming down and developing the territory in three months.

This is beyond the category of genius, is this still something normal humans can do?

At this moment, Greendale couldn't help but doubt, is this a human being in front of her, or a monster in human skin?

Lance originally thought he could pretend, but found that Grindel looked at him more vigilantly than before, and the hand holding the staff seemed to be ready to strike.

Lance didn't understand for a while, but he still added a sentence.

"I am sure and able to calm down Hamlet within five years, and your help will speed up Hamlet's development. The better the development by then, the faster the time for revenge will be."

If the word "science" is the key word of Paracelsus, then the word "revenge" is the key word of Grindel.

Grindel's expression was calm when she mentioned this, but the fear in her eyes couldn't be avoided. Just thinking of that figure made her tremble slightly. The strength of the war wolf gave her great pressure.

That's right, only this kind of terrifying growth can help him kill that guy.

As long as he can avenge himself, it doesn't matter what he is, and it doesn't matter what he asks himself to do.

It has to be said that Grindale, who was dazzled by hatred, has already half-stepped into madness. If she hadn't met Lance, it would be hard to say what the consequences would be.

In other words, it is normal that few people come to Hamlet on their own initiative...

Greendale left with a lot of thoughts, but Lance didn't care too much.

She couldn't escape from her palm, because everything he said was true, and the conditions he gave were also true.

Hamlet's territory is not limited to the current area. When he completes his recovery, he will definitely border on the mountains, and he will definitely have to deal with those barbarians.

And Boudica knew it from his mouth, these guys like to fight the autumn wind very much, although it is also forced by the environment, but it is not okay to rob him.

So when the time comes, we must pick an early bird to deal with, and it is obvious that the tooth wolf tribe that is attacking everywhere is very good as the chicken that kills chickens and monkeys.

Because the Gargoyle tribe had almost offended the surrounding tribes, killing him would not cause any other entanglements. On the contrary, it could calm down the chaos on the branches of the mountains.

At the same time, the most powerful and uncontrolled tribes in this area can be solved in order to be stable.

It's time to show strength, quell chaos, delineate a trading zone, and start trading to smooth the resource gap between the two.

He needs resources such as fur and herbs, while the mountain barbarians need food for the winter. Everyone benefits from each other and quells the war.

Lance doesn't like war, because war will definitely kill people, and logistics also requires money, and transportation also requires mobilization of the people, no matter what it is, it needs to spend a lot of money.

As for earnings?

What good can a barbarian have?Now it is still in the form of tribes. Small tribes have hundreds of people, and large tribes have only a thousand people. The productivity is too low.

If it was really profitable, the empire would have fought after so many years, how can we wait for him?
If you would rather the Eastern Expedition than the Northern Expedition, you can see that those barbarians are a group of poor ghosts, and they will lose him in the war.

Fighting the tooth wolf was a battle that had to be fought in order to show strength, and as he said, there was an enmity between the two, and he couldn't sleep well if the tooth wolf was not wiped out.

It's just that it's too far away to think about it now. If the ancestor doesn't die for a day, he won't have more energy to expand...

Lance put down the research on the witch's notes. Compared with this, it is more urgent to deal with the impact of the witch.

Of course, he eliminated all the negative ones. The appearance of the plague did cause panic among the people, but it was also an opportunity.

An opportunity to implement the two policies of healthy drinking water and personal hygiene.

In fact, Lance has been promoting these two things, but the public's response is not great.

Not to mention the difficulty of execution, no matter how powerful he is, he can't control whether they drink hot water or not.

That's why he has always been advocating, not enforcing, and only in the training camp can he rely on his strength to carry it out.

As for cleaning, the streets in the town are very clean and tidy now, there is no scene of feces and urine, all excrement, even cattle and sheep, are pulled to compost.

But now people are still very dirty, and all kinds of lice are one of the very common problems.

Lance really hated their habit of not taking a bath, but it was also difficult for him to carry out the bathing process. He must kill his head without taking a bath.

Originally, Lance also thought they were troublemakers, but after careful research, he found that it was not that simple.

First of all, the people have discovered from their simple life experience that frequent bathing can lead to illness at least, and death at worst.

After Lance discovered this, he began to investigate, and then he realized that the bathing he understood was different from the bathing understood by ordinary people.

In summer, they take a bath by jumping directly into the river, and there is no more detailed method, just splashing in the water a few times, not to mention whether they are clean or not, at least the sweat is gone.

And they don't have the habit of drying their bodies, but let them dry, or simply shake off the clear water droplets on their bodies before putting on clothes.

Now Lance understands that with an ordinary person's physique, it would be strange if you suddenly plunged into the water after being exhausted in the summer without cramping, and it is possible that you are unlucky and sink directly.

After washing, it is dry or stuffy, can it not be cold?Can you not get sick?
As for the winter, basically no one takes a bath, and the water will not come up in the cold weather.

This is still a man, at least he can take a bath in the river, but what about a woman?The problem is more serious.

They don't have many places to take a bath, and they will be criticized if they go out in the open air. In this era when religious ideas dominate, feudal ideas are very strong.

After visiting around, Lance found out that the people are not willing to take a bath. Who doesn't want to wash off the sweat after doing farm work in summer?
Who wants to stink?Who wants dead skin to scab over?Who wants ticks to drive people crazy?

The real problem is that they don't have the condition to shower.

Lance has a special bathroom, some people carry water, boil water, and even spread fresh flower petals on the water, but what about them?

It was already dark after they finished their farm work, and they were so exhausted that they quickly finished their meals and went to bed.

You want them to carry water and come back to boil water for bathing?

Are you kidding me?
Before Lance came, they all lived in longhouses. They even lived with livestock. Where could there be a place for you to bathe?
Moreover, the water and the firewood are all exchanged for labor, and they simply cannot afford such a luxury.

As for a change of clothes, they may only have one set of clothes for each of them. What do they get in exchange?

Lance still remembers that he investigated this matter deeply at that time. When he asked why they didn't take a bath, the look in their eyes was very deep, just like asking why they don't eat meat.

That is a luxury that nobles are entitled to enjoy. It is good for poor people like them to live without enough food, and they dare not ask for extravagance at all.

Similarly, if you let them drink hot water, they are working most of the day, so where is the time to boil water?Where did the firewood come from?

At this time, Lance, who had never had any experience in governing, understood that the reality is that it cannot be executed perfectly with just a click of the mouse in the game.

What the implementation of some policies really needs is to understand the problem and then solve the problem, rather than making a decision on the head and then throwing all the problems to the public, otherwise good things will turn into bad things.

It is very simple to promote the popularization of bathing. The cost of bathing is kept down so that everyone can enjoy it.

It is necessary to build baths and centralize management, and Lance also needs to provide soap, scrubbing and other supporting facilities.

Also build a drinking water station in the town to provide hot water for free, but you need to bring your own containers, so the clay pots, iron pots, and glass cups made by craftsmen in the town also have consumption channels.

At that time, the money will be taken back from the hands of the people, and when the cleaning policy is rolled out, it will also reduce a lot of diseases caused by mess.

And this started when I came back from Totnes, but now I just took advantage of the fear brought by the plague to further promote these things.

And the appearance of Grindel also brought a direction to Lance. She can not only improve Hamlet's medical system, but also be proficient in herbal medicine, and she can further develop more formulas.

With her help, Lance can engage in medicated baths for physical fitness and saunas for soothing the mind, these are more high-end and more expensive items.

It can be said that the importance of Grindel is very high. Her existence can solve the ailments of some townspeople, and the recipes of medicinal baths and fumigations also need her to configure.

The emergence of bathing places can drive the economy, provide a large number of jobs, and consume wood.

correct!

Some forests in the wilderness were indeed corrupted, but some were not deeply corrupted.

Although it can't be used directly, it can be cut down to make charcoal. He understands the principle, which is to isolate the air for heating, let the wood burn incompletely, and volatilize the gas and liquid in the wood to produce the remaining products.

This method is not too difficult, and it can also collect the by-product wood tar, which is a good thing, anti-corrosion and moisture-proof, and can be used to make ships.

With more charcoal, the manufacturing of ordnance will be faster, and at the same time, a batch of charcoal will be stored for heating in winter, and even sold for a fortune.

Lance is not a civil engineer, nor a biochemical environmental material, nor an industrial party, but he likes to read novels and play games, no matter what it is, he knows a little bit.

No one knows everything at the beginning, and what people really need is learning and research.

…………

In the middle of the night, a carriage was running on the old road. Looking at the exquisite carriage and strong horses, you can tell that this is not a car for ordinary people. Only the nobles will spend money to decorate the appearance.

But what is even more peculiar is that the pattern symbolizing the nobility mark on the carriage turned out to be the family crest of the Hamlet family, a shield-faced castle pattern.

It's just that the lord of Hamlet is still staying in Hamlet, so the car...

With the faint blue light emitted by the lanterns hanging on both sides of the car, three people can be seen inside the car.

A man in his thirties, dressed in decent aristocratic attire, but in an era when he was pursuing a slim figure and all aristocratic men had to corset their waists, his bulging stomach looked particularly greasy.

It's just that he doesn't care about these at all, his fat face is full of excitement, because after tonight he will inherit a territory and become a lord.

Although he himself was a member of the aristocratic system, his family was unlucky during the embryonic stage of the imperial urbanization wave, and the fief was taken back, leaving only a name and some bureaucratic positions in the local city.

Even their family is not bad, because some nobles who have not reacted have become spoils of war in the invisible war and have been redistributed.

After the rise of the empire reached its peak, it could no longer accommodate so many nobles. When the new nobles rose with the help of cities, these old nobles had to face challenges. Apart from wars with foreign countries, only internal fighting could alleviate this resource allocation problem.

Under the powerful strife, the future of an incompetent nobleman like him can be seen at a glance.

In the end, only the title can be inherited. If he is not capable, he may not even be able to keep his father's position as a local bureaucrat.

That is, practical things will be cut off in his father's generation, and all he can get is a little money.

With no hope, I started to behave poorly. I thought I would live my whole life like this, but a letter came a few days ago and changed everything.

A distant relative of an aristocrat whom he had never heard of passed away, leaving a rich inheritance and a vast land waiting for his inheritance.

He was born in the period when the old aristocrats and the new aristocrats were fighting each other, and he had experienced the benefits brought by the real power aristocrats. He was born and killed in his own territory, and the emperor of the empire could not control himself.

Although it is remote and not as rich as the central part of the empire, the drought in the central part has long been in chaos.

Not to mention living so aggrieved now, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at him in the city, but if he kills a pariah, he will be attacked by those guys.

It was impossible for him to go back after enjoying that kind of treatment. On the contrary, he was more eager to inherit the territory and start his noble life again.

He directly took the remaining knights of the two families and set foot on the road to Hamlet.

The horse neighed amidst the sound of whipping, and the speed was also increasing...
