Bianfeng Town ushered in a long-lost rainy day. The sky was covered with dark clouds, and the rain fell from the sky, hitting the windowsills and glass, making crackling sounds.
Logically speaking, spring should be a rainy season, warm and humid.
But in Bianfeng Town, it has rained in a handful of times since the end of the Demon Moon.
Fortunately, the farmland is right next to the river, making it very convenient to water.
Now, a heavy rain has dispelled the dullness in the air, and the nightingale opened the window and let the fragrance of the earth pour into the room.
From a distance, you can see that the fields on the other side of the Chishui River have sprouted new buds, and green wheat seedlings are endless, extending to the end of the vision.
Under the rain, these crops appear extremely bright, in sharp contrast to the gray river water.
Roland stretched and threw the quill in his hand into the pen holder.
Drawn?The nightingale asked.
Well, a brand new weapon can increase the fire rate of the musket several times. Roland stacked more than a dozen design drawings together and stacked them flat. I named it the revolver rifle.Want to see it?
If she didn't read it, she curled her lips, but she couldn't understand it anyway.
This is just the basic type, if the barrel is shortened, it is a revolver and can be carried with you.But to make it come in handy, another key technology needs to be addressed.Then I will give you one hand and I will no longer have to be afraid of the church's judgement army.
You mean, it can make an ordinary woman knock down a fully armed man?
Not one, but several.Roland smiled proudly and said, "If you have good luck, the five great men are not a problem."
Nightingale showed a disbelief and was about to say something when a knock on the door suddenly sounded outside the office.
Your Highness, Barov's apprentice returned from the capital, and he also brought the saltpeter merchant, who is now waiting for your reception outside the castle.
Apprentice of the Minister's Assistant?
Roland thought about it before remembering this.
When attacking Changge Fortress, the town had very little gunpowder stock. He sent his personal guards to Zhulongling and Chishui City, hoping to obtain a new source of saltpeter.
Barov's apprentice was the last one to be sent, and his destination was the capital.
After all, there are all kinds of products there, and with summer coming, the output of saltpeter will definitely increase significantly.
Unexpectedly, the person sent out at the latest was the first to bring back good news.
Take them to the living room and I will be there soon.Roland looked at the sky and asked for a dessert in the kitchen.
When he looked back, the nightingale was gone.
But he knew that she was by his side.
……
When Roland walked into the living room, the saltpeter merchant also happened to be led into the hall by the guards.
She took off her wet cloak and straw hat and bowed to the prince. I am Margaret Farman from the capital, and I salute you, dear His Highness Wimbledon.
When Roland was slightly stunned when he saw that the person coming was a woman.
The business environment in this era is far less safe than later generations. When running around, you may not only encounter bandits and refugees, but also local snakes and underground forces in towns, so female businessmen are rare.
Like lightning, she has brilliant blonde hair, but her hair is denser and longer.
She is about thirty years old, and perhaps because of ordinary people, wrinkles appeared on the corners of her eyes and forehead.
The skin is darker and looks a bit rough at first glance.
However, from the perspective of his face, he was not a Mojin person, but a people from the fjord.
Let's sit down, the prince made an invitation and then sat down in the main seat. You are not a Grayburger man, right?
Why do you say so?Margaret smiled.
Your hair color is very rare in the mainland kingdoms.As far as I know, most people on the other side of the strait have beautiful blonde hair, and I also know an...explorer from the other side of the sea.
You are so knowledgeable. My hometown is indeed in the fjord, but I have been there for more than ten years. Now I live in the royal capital and I am half a person from Gray Castle.She paused, you just left the king, maybe we met somewhere.I feel very honored to live in the same city as His Highness.
Sure enough, a successful businessman is very good at speaking. Even though he knows that the other party is flattering and getting close to him, Roland still feels very helpful.
At this moment, he felt that he was pinched hard on his right... Well, there is no need to determine the authenticity at this time, Comrade Nightingale, who is enthusiastic and responsible.
However, when it comes to explorers, this is an amazing name in the fjord.Margaret continued, "You may not understand that the land where people in fjords can live is very sporadic. The sea water rises and falls. Some islands will be swallowed into the sea at high tide, while others will erupt with flames and smoke all day long. The stones will melt at high temperatures and converge into dark red rivers.Only those who open up new waterways or discover new suitable islands are eligible for this title.Most people will not call themselves explorers.
Haha, she not only called herself an explorer, but also called her father the greatest explorer. Roland smiled and shook her head. As a child, she likes to imagine herself as an amazing big man.
In the fjord, even children would not easily say this name. Margaret frowned. Did she mention her father's name?
Seeing the other person's expression, Roland also realized that something was wrong. Could it be that the word explorer is the spiritual belief of the sea people and cannot be screamed randomly?
Her father's name is Thunder.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the name was said, the other party's eyes immediately widened. Do you know Lord Thunder?
No, I know his daughter, why, have you heard of this name?
Who hasn't heard of this name in the Fjords?Lord Thunder discovered Shuangfeng Island and Hailong Bay, almost half of the territory where everyone lives.He also drew detailed maps of the East Coast and Endless Cape, and now he has opened up 80% of the routes to the mainland.Every child is familiar with the deeds of Lord Thunder. He is one of the greatest explorers in the Fjord!
But I heard that Thunder seemed to be buried under the sea because of a storm...
No, Your Highness, a real explorer will not fall because of the storm.He has encountered countless dangers and eventually survived.At this moment, Lord Thunder must be summoning a new expedition somewhere, just like the things he had done before.Margaret leaned forward slightly. Your Highness, do you know where his daughter is now?
Roland was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that Lightning's father was so famous. Are those adventure stories that sound like fairy tales true?
She lives in my castle.After suffering from a shipwreck, she wandered westward to the border town, and I happened to take her in.
In your castle?Her look of anticipation was beyond words. Can I... let me meet his daughter?
Well, it may not work now. Lightning should be cruising around the Hidden Forest at this moment, looking for the ruins and locations marked on the treasure map. She is currently practicing... jungle adventure skills. If you plan to stay here for one night, you should be able to wait until she comes back.
Then I was bothering me, Margaret nodded without hesitation.
Next, we can discuss the main business, right?
Of course, Your Highness, she smiled, please speak as long as you want.
Logically speaking, spring should be a rainy season, warm and humid.
