A grand celebration is taking place in the Lord's Hall of the border town.

In addition to the witches, the town hall and the high-ranking officers of the First Army were also present, including the aristocratic Barov Mons and Carter Lannis, as well as the iron axes and the popular iron axes and the Camo Stil.Especially the latter, Roland spent a lot of words to pull him from the laboratory and attend this "meaningless" banquet in his mouth.

In order to make the people feel the same with themselves, in addition to public speeches, he also ordered the kitchen to use the remaining refined starch for the manufacture of explosives, baked a large amount of white bread, and distributed to the people of the town - as long as the identity card, you can receive a limited amount of delicious food at the city hall.When the First Army was still on its way home, most of the people in the town already knew of the victory of the battle.

Of course, they may not understand the purpose and significance of this expedition, but as long as there is free bread, it is a day to celebrate for them.

This is also the first time Roland imitated the "highly elegant" banquet held in the Wangdu mode.

Without barbecue and large stew, all the food was cut into small slices and packed in a white plate.The basin placed on the edge contains a variety of ingredients, which can be dung according to their own taste, similar to the cafeteria of future generations.

"Welcome back," he said, walking up to Anna with two glasses of cider, "and has worked hard along the way."

"You have said this, in the dock," said Anna, taking the glass, "and my answer is the same, not hard."

The glass touched slightly, the girl's eyes were full of sweet smiles, and Roland resisted the impulse to hold her on the spot, and then raised a glass to the other witches to celebrate.

“What about me?”The lightning clamored.

"You've got a part too," Roland called to the valet who brought the wine, and took a glass of cider, "it's hard."

“I want to drink white!”The little girl raised her head.

"Uh ..." he thought, and finally agreed to the other party's request, the little boy's curiosity is always particularly strong, if she has been refused, perhaps she will learn the appearance of the nighting, quietly slipped into the kitchen to steal wine and drink, "Okay, but only one drink."

“Hmm!”

Just as Roland had given her a glass of low-level white wine with ice and grape juice, she suddenly came up and kissed him on the cheek.

“Cough... this is the ceremonial of the fjord?”

"Yes," said the lightning, nodding, "my father said!"

Since it was not the first time to see, the witches did not think too strange, but the Shirvey and others raised their eyes, and then looked at Roland with the accusation, and saw that the latter was quite embarrassed to leave the head open - is there such a ceremony in the fjord to kiss the leader at the celebration?

Next is toast to your men.

When it was the chief alchemist's turn, he leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, I have read Medium Chemistry twice, but there are still many unknowns."

“It’s about the microscopic composition of matter, which involves a lot of physical knowledge, and you have to look at it with another book.”Roland pointed out, "I suggest that you read all the first physics first, and then read the chemical scrap from scratch, so that many doubts can be answered."

“I’m going to do that too, but...” He hesitated, “Your Highness, why does the cover of each ancient book use a different color?”Do they have any special meaning?”

"Well," Roland paused for a moment, "the color represents its hierarchy and ease of acquisition."

“Is that so?”Camoruo thought, "From green to purple, so it seems that the deeper the color, the more mysterious the knowledge of its records, then the Higher Chemistry must be black?"

"No, it's orange."

“Ah?”Camo groaned, “Why?”

Roland smiled, "Who knows?"

...

Halfway through the feast, he went out of the hall and came to the terrace of the castle.Under the whirling of the evening wind, Roland could not help but feel a little cold.Halfway through the autumn, he realized that it would not be long before the long winter brought by the demonic month would cover the entire western state.

But this year and the previous year have become very different, and trade with the Margari Chamber of Commerce has brought a lot of liquidity, and in addition to food and supplies, a considerable part of these golden dragons have been paid to the people in the form of remuneration.According to the statistics of the convenience market, there has been a lot of growth in the sales of various commodities recently, and some goods that can significantly improve the quality of life, such as meat chops and eggs, have grown rapidly.

Undoubtedly, this is a manifestation of the gradual improvement of the standard of living of the people.In particular, indigenous people have new free housing, and after the salary has increased a lot compared with the past, they have begun to try to buy food that is usually only enjoyed during the festival.The newly introduced population is still in the stage of saving money to buy a house, and when they can live in a stable place, the market will inevitably usher in a new sales peak.

What do people really need?Sometimes they just need to eat and drink well, and they will be grateful to the Lord Ded and follow him to death.

In this day and age, most civilians are easily satisfied.

“Your Highness, be careful to get cold.”The nightingale appeared from behind, holding a thin coat in his hand.She tossed her clothes to Roland, pulled out a piece of fish, and stood side by his side, “What are you thinking here?”

"Nothing," he grinned, putting his coat on, "just suddenly looking at my territory."

"The town seems to be very lively," the Nightingale pointed in the direction of the brightly gushing square, "it is already evening, and so many people have not come home."

“Because today is the first day of the new play Dawn,” Roland said, “and a few months later, the troupe returned to the town’s first show, and the public probably can’t wait to see Miss May and Ms. Irene again.”

But then again, Miss Maye would soon become Mrs. May, too, and she did not expect that his chief knight would start so quickly and turn the West Star into her hands.When the other person raised his face to him, he staggered for a while before he reacted.The chief knight's wedding needs to be recognized by the loyalty of the lord, and Roland naturally has no objection to this kind of popularity.The last two people's wedding dates are set after the end of the demon month, that is, the day when the border town is officially established.

“The first time I dived into a town, it was a dead place,” the Nightingale lamented. “Now even if you stand in the castle, you can feel their joy.”

“Days are always getting better day by day,” Roland looked up at the cloudless bright night sky and took a deep breath.There is still much to be done, such as expanding the scope of education, forming public health care, strengthening cultural construction, encouraging fertility, etc. These will be transformed into a solid force in the West and lay the foundation for the unified gray castle.

“So what about us?”The nightingale asked, his eyes cunning.

"Of course it is," Roland patted her head, "I promise."(Unfinished.)
