"Don't worry about that, I..." Linde was about to tell the other party that he would send someone to get some more iron ore, and then Linde suddenly thought of something.
Isn't there a cave at that iron mine? Isn't there a secret room in the cave made entirely of wind-type Sylph Stone?
Are those stones all natural!?
Chapter 176: The First Guest in the Sixth Dream
Not long ago, in order to alleviate the iron shortage in the camp, Lind, Ilufa and others went to the nearest iron mine and directly used magic to blast some iron ore back.
There was not much iron ore, just enough for about ten days of consumption, and it was consumed ahead of schedule due to the hard work of the enthusiastic blacksmiths.
Due to safety considerations, iron ore mining cannot be stable until the trouble with the Chaos Beastmen is resolved. However, compared to stable mining, the building buried in the mountains is Lind's focus now.
That huge building, where some unknown war had taken place, bound the souls of four demons and prevented them from returning to the Chaos Realm.
Linde didn't know how big the building was, but it was definitely not small, and it might have hollowed out the entire mountain. Who built the building and why it was built were still unknown, and who were the people in the building? No one knew the answers to these questions.
But at this moment, what Linde cared about most was the spherical entrance made entirely of Sylph Stone.
There are so many Sylphite stones, and the cut surfaces are so smooth, could they all be man-made?
Lind didn't know the origin of the building, but he knew that Sylph Stone was very rare. Ilufa also said that the value of the Sylph Stone at the entrance alone was enough to buy an earldom.
Is it possible that so many Sylphite stones were artificially produced?
I told Ilufa about my idea. After instinctively denying it at first, Ilufa also thought about this possibility carefully. Those Sylph stones are used to charge the magic runes at the entrance, just like the magic runes for iron smelting that I am making now. Ilufa was also inspired by that magic rune to make the magic runes that are used by blacksmiths now.
If such a large amount of Sylph Stone were all mined from nature, then the consumption would be too great. And if you think about it carefully, it is just a door. If you want to achieve a similar effect, you can use other methods to save magic ore. This is really a waste.
Perhaps, the Sylph Stone in that cave is really man-made.
As a five-star magician, Ilufa's curiosity was aroused. As a magician, in addition to improving his command volume and the power of magic, research is also an important task for magicians.
However, for most magicians, the so-called research refers to studying the mysteries of magic and analyzing the laws of runes, with the ultimate goal of improving their spellcasting abilities. Any research that cannot improve spellcasting abilities is considered to be a waste of time.
Ilfa used to think so too, but now, influenced by Linde, Ilfa has begun to think about standardization, popularization, and how to enable people who cannot use magic to use magic.
If Ilufa's teacher knew that his favorite student was so rebellious, he would probably be furious and might even withdraw his graduation thesis.
But now Ilfa no longer needs to worry because his mentor is dead.
Ilufa was also very curious about the building hidden in the mountains. Who built it, what was its purpose, and the extremely low concentration of magic power and the method of binding the demon's soul all made Ilufa fascinated.
If the camp hadn't needed him, Ilfa would have stayed there 24 hours a day, studying how to crack it.
Now Lind proposed to study the buildings in the cave, and Ilfa immediately agreed, but the same thing applies, the enemy must be killed first.
The problem of the blacksmith shop was temporarily solved, and Stanley also proposed a new furnace, namely the blast furnace. However, it would take time to build the furnace, and for the sake of safety, Lind asked to continue using the old method, while experimenting with the new method, to avoid the situation where the furnace exploded.
The furnace explosion is not a big deal, the key is that if the blacksmith is also killed in the explosion, Linde will be heartbroken. Aiwozhen Island is isolated from the world, and it is impossible to have contact with the mainland within a year. There are only so many craftsmen, and it is unlikely to expect craftsmen among the new beastmen. These skilled jobs are really one less, and there is no situation where you don’t do it because there are plenty of people who can do it.
In order to protect these important technical jobs, Lind issued an order that no craftsmen were allowed to go to the battlefield. Even if someone cut a finger, Lind would personally participate in the treatment.
The problem of iron ore is not big. Now the new beastmen all over the island have formed an alliance with the camp, and there is also labor to mine iron ore, namely the group of pigs brought back by Lind.
These pigs are big and strong, with well-developed muscles and are extremely loyal. It is obvious that they are suitable for doing this kind of heavy physical work.
The new beastmen from other tribes would keep an eye on the movements of Lion King Mara's troops, and once they found the enemy approaching, they would immediately call everyone back.
After finishing all this, Lind could finally take a break. Walking towards his tent, when passing by Efit's sixth dream, Efit suddenly opened the curtain, scaring Lind.
"Master, you're back~" Efit smiled at Lind.
"Ah, I'm back." Lind nodded. "Sorry, Efit, I'm a little tired today. Can we talk about it later?"
"Ah? Master, you are tired, that's just right~" Efit said energetically, walked out of the tent, and grabbed Lind's hand. "Give me a glass of fruit wine~"
Fruit wine? Was Effit's winemaking successful?
After saying that, Efit pulled Lind into the tent like a nimble lark.
As soon as he entered the tent, Linde smelled a fragrance that was refreshing, a mixture of wine, fruit, flowers, and several other aromas that Linde couldn't describe.
This refreshing aroma immediately relieved Lind's fatigue. Then Lind was surprised to find that there were many more tables and chairs in the tent, and even a counter. There was also a wooden shelf behind the counter, on which were placed several...
Glass bottle!?
Lind blinked hard to make sure he was not mistaken. They were glass wine bottles.
Aifet let go of his hand and jumped over the counter in one leap, his movements were very agile. After entering the counter, Aifet coughed, showed Linde a business smile and said, "Welcome to the Sixth Dreamland, I am the boss here, you are the first customer of this store, all your consumption today is free~"
"Dear guest, what would you like to drink?" Efit tilted his head and looked at Lind with a smile.
This set of operations was done smoothly and in one go, leaving Linde stunned, but...
"Are you sure you want to let a twelve-year-old drink?" Linder raised his eyebrows.
Chapter 177: Girls, it's amazing
The tavern is one of the few entertainment venues for civilians in this world.
Due to the scarcity of materials and backward productivity, the entertainment facilities in this world can be described as scarce compared to the world before Lind traveled through time.
There is no mobile phone and no internet. Although magic is powerful, at least so far, it cannot allow Lind to start a civilized game.
People cannot work all the time, they still need some entertainment and rest. If you are a noble, it is better, you can read books, watch plays, and play some games for entertainment, but for common people, especially serfs, there are not many ways to entertain.
Apart from using the process of creating humans for entertainment, there are very few entertainment measures for civilians and even serfs. The tavern is one of the few entertainment venues that civilians can go to, so Efit's tavern is really very important.
At present, due to the lack of supplies and heavy construction tasks in the camp, entertainment is not the first thing to consider, and the serfs don't have much in mind for entertainment. But as the camp grows larger and more people come, there must be a way to entertain the civilians to vent their excess energy.
Especially this group of serfs, all of them were beaming with joy after having a full meal. Although it was not frequent, there had been sporadic cases of serfs quarreling over trivial matters in the camp, which then turned into fights.
The Sixth Dream of Efit's tavern has completed the brewing of the first batch of wine. The thirteen-year-old young proprietress invited her boss to be the first guest of the tavern.
In fact, Efit's wine had been brewed a few days before Lind came back, but Efit never gave it to other people to drink, not even to the camp's lord Ilufa.
For Efit, there is only one sun in the sky, and Lind is his only sun. Efit wants Lind to be the first customer of his new tavern.
but……
"Are you sure you want to let a twelve-year-old kid drink?" Lind looked at Efit across the counter and said with a meaningful smile.
"Huh?" Efit was stunned, but still maintained a pleasant smile.
Minors are prohibited from drinking alcohol. This is common knowledge in the world before crossing over. The specific age regulations vary in different countries, but it is basically a consensus.
Alcohol can cause serious damage to the nervous system, especially to minors. As a neurologist, Lind is very familiar with various alcohol-induced nerve injuries.
According to memory, this world also has similar customs, minors are not allowed to drink, but compared to before crossing, the drinking age in this world is very low, and people can drink at the age of 14. And this is not a legal requirement, and there are people who really give children alcohol, and no one cares.
"Oh, sorry, I forgot that you are still underage, young master." Efit quickly resolved the awkwardness and smiled. "In addition to wine, I have many other drinks here. What would you like to drink, young man?"
"Manager, please recommend one." Linde said with a smile. "Manager, please recommend a signature for our store."
"Okay~" Efit smiled slightly and started preparing drinks.
While Efit prepared the drinks, Lind was observing the tavern.
Lind didn't like drinking, and he almost never drank before he crossed over. On the one hand, as a neurologist, Lind knew very well that alcohol was not good for the body, and on the other hand, Lind's alcohol tolerance was very poor, and he would get drunk after a can of Rio.
The reason why Lind has such a poor alcohol tolerance is that his body lacks a key enzyme. However, Lind does not think this is a bad thing at all. It is a good way to block alcohol.
After traveling through time, I changed into a new body. How well can this body drink?
Lind was a little curious, but curiosity was curiosity, and he was determined not to drink a drop of alcohol before he became an adult.
While Efit was preparing drinks, Lind was also observing the facilities in the tavern. Eleven days away from the camp was not a long time, but it was also not a short time. However, in these eleven days, many more facilities were added to the tavern.
All kinds of tables and chairs are available, and the counter and wine cabinet have also been made. Although they are all made of wood, the project is no small task.
There are only so many carpenters who are skilled in carpentry in the camp, and many houses are not even finished yet. Do they have time to make so much furniture?
"Who made these furniture?" Lind asked, stroking the smooth surface of the counter.
"I did it." Efit, who was choosing drinks, replied.
"You did it!?" Linde was stunned.
"Yes." Efit turned around and looked at Lind with a smile. "Everyone in the camp is so busy, they all have important things to do, so I have to come here alone~"
Linde stared at the things in the tavern in a daze. There were four tables, fifteen chairs, a long counter, and a cabinet with various things inside the counter.
This was all done by a thirteen-year-old girl in eleven days! ?
Moreover, these furnitures are not shoddy. Take the counter in front of you for example. It has been polished to prevent customers from getting pricked by wood splinters. Are these really made by Efit alone?
Looking at Lind's unbelievable expression, Efit smiled slightly, seeming to enjoy Lind's reaction.
"In the past, my family also made some furniture and other things by themselves. Because there were special requirements, I also took them to learn some." Efit explained. "Compared to Elisa's amazing magic, it's nothing."
Nothing? That's nothing?
Girl, it's amazing.
Efit placed a brown translucent glass in front of Lind. Seeing the glass, Lind asked tentatively, "Did you make this glass, too?"
Don't tell me you made the glass.
"Of course not." Efit laughed dryly and waved his hands. "This was found in a carriage sent by the new beastmen. There are many wine utensils in the carriage~"
After saying that, Efit took out a small container to show off. Lind recognized that it was a cocktail shaker for mixing drinks.
It seemed to be something left behind by the fleeing bartender. Soon, Efit prepared a drink for Lind.
After a show of cocktail mixing skills, Efit opened the cocktail shaker and poured the drink into the glass in front of Lind.
"Come on~" Aifet smiled and made a gesture of invitation. "The manager recommends, honey apple juice~ Please enjoy~"
Apple juice? Lind was stunned.
Looking at the pink, crystal clear drink in front of him, Lind blinked in confusion. Pink apple juice?
"Is apple juice pink?" Lind asked puzzledly.
"Of course not." Efit explained. "The reason why it is this color is because of my exclusive secret recipe~"
Lind raised his eyebrows, picked up the cup, and took a small sip.
Deep in Efit's eyes, a hint of enchanting pink flashed.
Chapter 178 Fat House Happy Water
The glass in my hand was not completely transparent. The liquid in the glass was pink and exuded an enticing aroma of apple and honey.
Not only the smell of the drink in hand, but also the air of the entire tavern is filled with a refreshing aroma. With a little observation, you can see that there are some flowers placed in some places in the tavern, and the smell should be emitted from these flowers.
In addition to brewing wine, the girl in front of him seemed to be also good at decorating the tavern.
I remember she said that her family has been brewing wine and running taverns for generations. She is the third generation and this tavern is the sixth generation. Although it is just a simple tent, it can be seen that she has put a lot of thought into the layout, and the effect of the layout is very good.
This is beyond the level of an ordinary pub.
Since the common people's taverns were for common people and serfs, these people obviously had no cultivation at all. Vulgarity and noise were almost standard, and fighting and making trouble were also common. The type of customers determined the type of taverns. To use an inappropriate analogy, even prostitutes were divided into high-end and low-end. Low-end prostitutes just dragged their pants down to get in, while high-end prostitutes had to be able to play musical instruments and sing.
Playing various instruments and singing.
Judging from these details, the Efitt family might not have originally been a tavern, Lind thought, and the crystal clear juice in the glass was not comparable to the turbid wine that ordinary people drank.
She is a standard beauty with a promising future. She can read. You can tell at a glance that she is different from the common people who lack education. She is not inferior to Elisa who has received aristocratic education since childhood. Sometimes she is even better. And the tavern she has decorated now is completely different from the filthy common people's tavern...
Lind suddenly realized that he did not really understand his secretary at all.
However, Lind did not intend to delve into it. It was normal for people to have secrets. He had even concealed his identity as a time traveler. It didn't matter whether Efit had something to hide or just didn't want to say it.
Under the expectant gaze of Efit's big, watery eyes, Lind drank the honey apple juice. When the pink liquid flowed into Lind's throat, a hint of pink excitement flashed in the depths of Efit's pupils.
The moment Lind took a sip of the apple juice, his eyes lit up. He held the cup a little further away, smacked his lips in appreciation, and then drank it all in one gulp.
"How is it? How does it taste?" Seeing this, Efit asked expectantly.
"Not bad, it tastes great." Lind wiped his mouth and commented with a smile. "It has a strong apple aroma, and the amount of pulp left in the juice is just right, which adds a little taste but does not affect the smoothness of drinking. The sweetness of the honey is also just right, and does not take away the dominant position of the apple. It is very good."
"As long as you like it." After getting the affirmation, Efit smiled even more happily. "Then... another cup?"
"Is it okay?" Linde smiled.
Soon, Efit poured Lind another glass. Unlike before, this time Lind did not drink it all in one gulp, but drank it slowly in small sips.
Seeing that Linde didn't finish the drink, Efit looked puzzled. She asked tentatively, "Master, there is still so much left. Are you not satisfied?"
