The Lord is Addicted in Infrastructure

early morning.

Xia Zuoyi woke up to the sound of seabirds, slowly crawled out of the bed, and hummed in a sleepy nasal voice: "Judit, I'm awake."

"Here I am, my lord."

Judit's voice sounded at the end of the bed.

Xia Zuoyi turned around, looked over in a daze, yawned a little and sat up, the soft pajamas stuck to her body, the hem of the clothes was slightly curled, revealing her white and tender belly.

Judith walked to the bed and gently pulled up the pajamas, and said, "Can I wash up? My lord Earl."

"En." Xia Zuoyi nodded softly.

Judit then rang the bell.

Soon.

Kelly pushed open the door and walked in with a basin of water and toiletries, followed by Toby with a towel in his hand.

Xia Zuoyi took the towel to wipe his face after washing, and asked vaguely, "Is Gibran having a math test today?"

Toby: "Yes, my lord, my brother got up very early to go to Grandpa Nick."

Nick is the name of the old treasurer.

In order to let Gibran study more efficiently, Xia Zuoyi quietly mentioned a few words to the old accountant, and asked him to make the knowledge to be assessed into a test paper.

There is a small test every half a month, and a big test every month.

Gibran's daily study is full of arrangements - literacy, mathematics, how to do business, etc.

Xia Zuoyi would sometimes go to class with him to put on a show, after all, she couldn't be an illiterate lord.

He studied perfunctorily like this for three days of fishing and two days of drying the net, and he still managed to get full marks in the exam.

The servants in the castle all agreed—the little earl is a genius!

After helping Xia Zuoyi change her clothes, Judith asked, "My lord, are you going to take the exam today?"

Xia Zuoyi shook her head: "No, let Nick keep the exam papers for me, I will do it when I have time, and go to the alchemy room today."

The reason why he needs to use alchemy experiments to present the efficacy of herbs bit by bit.

Before that, his preparation was to order someone to dig out some uncommon or rare plants on Paar Mountain, and then bring them to the castle.

After a period of time, let the knights issue a notice in the city.

It is stated that if civilians or slaves find or pick plants of unknown species and names, they can use this plant to exchange for a certain amount of copper coins in the castle.

Over time, almost everyone in Wissas knew about it—the lord seems to be studying alchemy about the functions of plants.

After that, commoners or slaves often went up the mountain to search or searched in other places in exchange for copper coins, and the plants sent to the castle began to multiply.

Xia Zuoyi's method was very effective.

By comparing the pictures in "Complete Pictures and Detailed Explanations of Chinese Herbal Medicine", he quickly found mugwort, psyllium, nettle and other herbs among the many plants.

In the past few days, I have been immersed in the room of alchemy experiments, and I am also studying how to make herbs into potions or ointments.

For this purpose, he exchanged his prestige points for two books, "Chinese Herbal Medicinal Medicine Formula" and "Chinese Herbal Medicinal Ointment Encyclopedia". The study time of three days of fishing and two days of surfing the net slowly passed while he devoted himself to systematic reading.

He is actually very diligent and hardworking :)

Before going to the alchemy laboratory, Xia Zuoyi asked, "How long is the first training for recruits?"

Judith: "There is still more than half a month, Lord Earl."

Xia Zuoyi: "I remember two months ago, Fernandi and Walker told me that some knights also wanted to join the training. Did they persevere?"

"They've been holding on and trying to get a platoon or company commander."

"Oh, that's it." Xia Zuoyi said: "After the training is over, there will be a unified assessment. I hope they won't be ashamed."

Don't even compare civilians and slaves by then.

Soldiers have five days of training and two days of rest, and are not allowed to leave the training camp at will.

During the two-day rest period, soldiers can be allowed to go home to visit their parents and family members, but the number of people who go out each time is not more than 30, and they will be executed in rotation after approval.

At the beginning, many civilians and slaves could not adapt to the high-intensity training, so they had to rest and recover their strength within two days.

After getting used to it after a period of time, some civilians and slaves did not relax their training during the rest period in order to fight for the position of squad leader or even platoon leader, and did not allow themselves to relax in the slightest.

That was the case with Mike Andrew.

He hasn't been home for more than half a month, and today he took advantage of his rest day to type in a report, and it was quickly approved.

When passing by a butcher shop in the city, Mike Andrew spent eight copper coins to buy some pork back.

The neighbors of Mike Andrew's family were also slaves from Fort Comoy, and their son was also in boot camp, but he didn't come back today.

The neighbor's uncle, Mo Ke, greeted him when he saw him: "Mike, your parents are working in the salt field today, and they don't come home until the sun sets."

Mok works on the production line for refining refined salt, with one day off after every six days.

Today is his rest day.

And Mike Andrew's parents don't have a day off until tomorrow.

Mike Andrew nodded: "Thank you, Uncle Moke."

"You're welcome, go in quickly, old Andrew will be very happy when he sees you back." Mo Ke laughed loudly.

After a few more conversations, Mike Andrew walked into the house.

The place where they live now has changed dramatically from when they first came to Wissus.

Old Andrew was a good carpenter.

At first, there were only simple beds in the house, not even a table.

Now it is warm and complete, filled with necessary furniture and decorations, and there are some wild flowers dotted by the window, petals trembling slightly in the soft wind, and you can smell a scent in your nose.

Mike Andrew was in a good mood, and he couldn't help tidying up the house when he saw this.

Before the sun set, old Andrew's hearty and loud voice sounded outside the door.

After joy.

Mike Andrew chatted with his father while his mother prepared dinner.

Old Andrew: "I heard from Maier that you have added a lot of items to your training. You are exhausted every day. You can usually eat two pieces of black bread in the cafeteria. There is also some meat in the cafeteria, right?"

Maier is the son of Uncle Mork.

Mike Andrew hummed: "The food in the cafeteria is sufficient, and you can eat well every day. The training items are indeed slowly increasing, and some knights have also joined in."

Because of this, he has a lot of sense of urgency, fearing that he will not even meet the standard of becoming a monitor.

Old Andrew asked curiously: "You said before that the training items were formulated by the lord. What did you add this time?"

Mike Andrew: "[-]-foot run around a mountain, [-]-foot short speed drills, sit-ups, push-ups...wrestling, grappling, practicing big swords, stabbing with a gun, crawling and climbing...I insisted on it. come down."

Mike Andrew applied for many projects, and he heard the old Andrew's complex expression, distressed and relieved, mixed with pride for his son.

After entering the soldier training camp.

He watched his son change visible to the naked eye every time he came back. His body was taller and stronger, and his back was straight when he walked. He couldn't tell what was good, but he looked more energetic.

Not to mention the changes in the son, the changes in them are also obvious.

They are also slaves, and they also work for the manor owner.

But in Wissus, they have the prescribed working hours, one day off after every six days, and earn much more copper coins than before. This kind of life is a beauty that they could not even dream of before.

"Oh, thank you, Lord Lord, for his kindness!" Old Andrew couldn't help but say.

He now prays to the God of Creation every day, hoping that the lord will be healthy and grow up safely.

"Yes, thank you Lord Lord!" Mike Andrew said reverently.

Three months of training is over.

Xia Zuoyi came over again to review the results.

The reserve soldiers uniformly wore black clothes and stood neatly behind Fernandi Edward, and the ordinary soldiers uniformly wore white clothes and stood neatly behind Walker William.

Xia Zuoyi waved her little hand, and said hello in unison, resounding through the mountains and forests.

Gibran followed for the first time, and his eyes widened involuntarily.

Toby was so shocked that he opened his mouth in surprise, and couldn't close it for a long time.

Xia Zuoyi sat on the built platform, looked down and said, "It's time to start."

The drills were conducted first by the reserve soldiers, in a group of 12. Fernandi Edward was responsible for recording the No.1 of each drill, followed by ordinary soldiers, and the No.1 was also recorded by Walker Wilhelm.

When the drill was finally over, the sun was almost setting.

Judit took the parchment with his name recorded in front of Xia Zuoyi.

Xia Zuoyi took the parchment, stood up from the chair and walked to the edge of the table: "I am very satisfied with the results of your drill this time, and I believe you can also feel how much you have improved..."

"I have the list of No.1 personnel for each drill, and I will give each person twenty copper coins as a reward..."

Before the words were finished, the following suddenly became lively.

Walker Wilhelm struck the gong to silence them.

Xia Zuoyi continued: "Officers Fernandi and Valker still have another list in their hands."

"It records the performance of each of you on weekdays and the results of a month's training... Your chief will divide the classes according to these two lists, and the one with the most outstanding performance will become the class leader of each class."

"As for the platoon commander and company commander, unfortunately, only a very few knights have reached the standard."

The civilians and slaves didn't feel regretful, but their hearts were aroused to be competitive.

Especially those who almost reached the standard of becoming a squad leader, and those who got No.2 in the drill were even more embarrassing.

Xia Zuoyi: "The positions of squad leader and even company commander are not static."

"Each quarter's assessment is divided into usual results and drill results. If the squad leader fails, or your grades exceed the squad leader, then you can also become the squad leader or even the company commander."

"Anything is possible if you work hard."

The soldiers below heard their hearts surging.

Fernandi and Valcke spend some time dividing the classes and announcing who will be the president of each class.

Mike Andrew was on the list, and he became the monitor of Class One.

Finally, Fernandi Edward stepped forward and shouted loudly: "I hope you will not forget who brought today's honor, precisely because you live in Wissus, because you have a wise and tolerant lord !"

"Swear! You will always be loyal to Lord Dexinia!"

The soldiers on both sides straightened their bodies, clenched their right fists on their left chests, and solemnly swore the oath.

——"I will be loyal to Lord Designia for the rest of my life! Defend the glory and brilliance of Designia to the death!"

The author has something to say:

Xia Zuoyi: From then on, I have my army team :)
