I have a shelter

If there is only one thing about the shelter that Alfonso is so picky about, it is the food.

In the days since he came here, almost every meal is mainly potatoes, sweet potatoes and mushrooms, which makes him feel very headache.

According to George, these crops have higher yields, but they cannot be preserved as long as grains. Therefore, the shelter stores grains as much as possible, and the staple food is mainly "old grains" and those that are not easy to preserve.

With the population of the valley, potatoes and sweet potatoes are basically consumed in the same year. No one is willing to eat the newly harvested grains, and bread is made from old grains.

The main meat here is actually grasshoppers.

"Thanks to the locust plague last year, our great wizard Anthony doesn't need to use the soles of his shoes to deal with those bugs this time. I'll introduce you to a new product later. This 'binding wand' is not only effective against locusts, but also has a miraculous effect on large swathes of flying undead creatures in the sky!"

Alfonso believes that there must be some powerful and strange things here, but when it comes to eating grasshoppers, the key to the problem is not the 'big binding' and the wand.

He thinks it's really a rare thing that the people here didn't rebel.

"When I first came to the bottom of the valley, in the rich rat-dwelling territory, many people were still fighting for a piece of bark." George chewed the fragrant grasshopper and said coldly: "Bugs? Haha, they have eaten all kinds of bugs."

Many newcomers to the shelter were spoiled at first. But the key is that everyone first stayed in Krober's men. He is the master of training the entire shelter. Now the shelter has such a stable order, and this cruel lord has contributed greatly!

In addition, everyone came here to escape, and the Western Territory was already in flames. Many people's lives were not much better than those in the Rat Territory, so they were not that picky.

The publicity and guidance work in the valley has always been led by Sister Hathaway, and a large number of priests and lobbyists dominate the thoughts here. After Brenda came, many things that were difficult for people to accept often became fashion and trends under the words of this "well-informed" authoritative adventurer.

This made the entire shelter the most perfect garden in the hearts of nobles, people and any other classes.

Just as Brenda said to Alfonso now

"This kind of food is actually a delicacy in many areas in the south of the continent. Alfonso, do you know the golden country of 'Brada' in the south? Oh, of course you don't know, it's a lost country, but a great adventurer like me has naturally been there"

"Insects there are a kind of food that only the high priests and other nobles can eat every day. One of the most popular foods there is meat pie made of mosquitoes"

Brenda talked to Alfonso about several dishes made specifically with various insects. What she said was well-reasoned and the details were very clear. George had to admire this guy's brain circuit

But this guy did seem to know several ways to cook grasshoppers, as if he had really been to the place called 'Lost Ruins'

The big star Brenda successfully diverted the topic, and the little fanboy Duke Alfonso had a heated discussion with him. In a few words, he also felt curious about the grasshoppers on everyone's plate, and after eating one, he decided to give up this food.

However, it is a good idea to give this thing to refugees during famine.

George and Brenda are right. It is good to have a bite to eat in the north, and the future Elda will also face the problem of famine.

After lunch, George, Alfonso, Brenda, Lord Wolf and others walked around the territory.

The weather was cold, and several people were wearing thick clothes, looking like noble children or wealthy people who opened shops at home.

There are too many people in the shelter now. George is like a senior official. Even with the extremely developed media means in modern times, many people don’t know what a senior official looks like.

People who have seen him from a distance have seen him. However, if he wears George Wei Ye, these people who have seen him can recognize him. But if he changes his clothes, it will be really different.

Occasionally, the old people who are familiar with him recognize him at a glance, but they also call him "George" or "Boss", which makes Alfonso on the side very surprised.

"It's not that the valley is not bound by etiquette, Alfonso. It's just that when I'm not dressed formally, people who are familiar with me will call me that. Otherwise, we will be surrounded when we go out, and we can't walk around."

Alfonso nodded and understood the situation.

In fact, it is very normal for the lord to go out. Generally speaking, if the lord doesn't talk to anyone, people won't, and dare not, come to him. But this 'God's Grace Knight' is too special. He is more popular than the Archbishop of Vikmik, so the situation here is a little special.

But Alfonso has discovered that the valley is not only special in these days-there is such a thing as being informal.

For example, the clothes.

Civilians are not qualified to wear things like color. Only in places where business is extremely open, such as ports and trade centers, will everyone forget this kind of aristocratic privilege-because those who have the money to wear such clothes have a very special relationship with the nobles. In those extremely open cities, the status of merchants is not even much lower than that of nobles.

But in this valley, any civilian can wear whatever they want! And everyone can afford it!

Even the services that were once exclusive to the nobles are everywhere on the street - Alfonso is actually a little confused here, and there are too many nobles and commoners in the valley, so many people are picking up the vegetable sellers, A nobleman indeed

But he was right. The leaders of the shelter did not prohibit this - as long as there was a limited purchase of tickets, he could buy whatever he wanted. And people with such limited purchase coupons naturally have this qualification!

However, the nobility still leads the trend. In order to be different, they can always create novel and fashionable services and matching.

Then they were copied in various ways by tailor shops.

This greatly stimulated the imagination of the people in the territory and also increased the currency circulation rate. This makes the order more stable - as the finance minister Maddock said, money cannot be used as food or drink. It seems that it is better to give it all to Anthony for alchemy. But once the population increases, if there is no currency, the valley will become a mess, and the boss will not know what to pay when he pays salary.

(Maddock was the first to provide monetary policy and propose purchase restrictions)

According to 'Madoc''s inference, if the sanctuary returns to the era of barter, the social structure will become looser, and every village and town will become a small tribe.

After listening to Maddock's words, George finally understood why after the asylum became a 'city', the light of dawn would regard 'currency' and various perfect laws as the force of order (the force of hope). )' has been added (increased recovery speed).

The more complete the system, the more secure and reliable the people will feel and the more hope they have for the future, and the easier it will be for the Dawn to gather the ‘power of order’. (Details will be discussed in later chapters)

Soon everyone had reached their seats near the old blacksmith shop. George remembered that at the beginning, across a few scattered farmhouses to the west, there was the farmland shrouded in mist.

Last winter, the sunshine had dispersed all the fog on the farmland to the west. Looking into the distance, one could see across the flat farmland and vaguely see the river five kilometers away.

But now, as far as the eye can see, there are all tall houses and spacious streets. The river in the distance has been completely blocked, and the most conspicuous thing in the field of vision is the top of the tall wizard tower - it has been built to seven or eight stories high, which is higher than the tallest spire of the castle.

The entire territory has changed so much.

My father in this world would never have imagined that his son could build a high tower in Johannes, right?

The biggest dream of Austin's ancestors was to turn the mill on the south side into a small manor.

But now even those houses are numbered in the thousands. Like a city rising slowly from the ground!

"Let's go to the 'New District' to have a look." George took steps and crossed the street on the west side of the old blacksmith shop.

There are many newly hung lanterns on both sides of the street, reflecting the solar terms.
