Take good care of him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De calmly said, though feeling some pity inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems Mussen is truly special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De couldn’t help but look at Mussen beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mussen, come over here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De beckoned to Mussen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mussen briskly ran forward, \"My Lord, what are your orders?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Put your hand on it, and use your mind to feel the presence of this pearl.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mussen obediently placed his hand on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a swirl of mist inside the pearl crystal, Luo De then saw Mussen’s spiritual strength—11.1.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh???\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De stared in disbelief!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It took him so long to cultivate to just 11.4, and this fellow reached 11.1 directly?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder he only rolled his eyes after a spiritual attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such talent is incredibly powerful!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This must be what they call a top-tier wizard’s talent, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De felt that if he couldn’t directly absorb the energy from Extraordinary Gems, he would be envious by now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How old are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, Luo De asked the now conscious Mussen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mussen seemed yet to recover from the vision of the Crystal Ball, standing dazed with an unfocused gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Lord is asking your age!\" Gang Le loudly reminded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh oh, nineteen years old, not yet passed my First Birth Day, my Lord.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mussen hurriedly responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being recruited as a soldier at nineteen is not surprising; in this era, the youngest at sixteen could join the army.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In some places of the Northern Territory, due to sparse population, even fifteen or fourteen-year-olds would become soldiers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A bit old, but with this talent, it should be fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De murmured to himself, looking at Mussen and asked, \"What did you see?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Lord, I saw a lot of snow,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mussen honestly replied,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seemed like I was in the snow mountain, the skies started to snow, I wanted to find a place to hide from the snow, and then an avalanche occurred.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was terrifying, the avalanche buried me right over my head, and then I awoke.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a nervous expression, Mussen cautiously whispered, \"My Lord, am I sick?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, you don’t need to worry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De comforted, \"Don’t think too much, just work diligently for me in the future.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, my Lord!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mussen smiled delightedly, \"Don’t worry, I’ll do everything you say and work hard with you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De nodded slightly, then looked at Gang Le beside him,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come, you try putting your hand on it too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gang Le placed his large hand directly over it, Luo De saw the Crystal Ball’s result and shook his head slightly in disappointment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>9.3, a bit higher than an average person, but still below the Meditation Technique’s threshold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How am I, Lord?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gang Le looked at Luo De with eager anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unwilling to discourage him, Luo De patted his back,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re doing well, eat well, sleep well, and exercise.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De waved his hand, leading the way leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gang Le scratched his head,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why didn’t the Lord ask what I saw?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the basic investigation was clear, Luo De had everyone leave and closed the stone door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for Luo De, no one knew the rune password, so no one else could enter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the future, this would be his underground vault to store various precious items.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With such a spacious area, even if the Imperial Vault were stored here, it could hold everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s a pity Luo De didn’t know the exact size of the Imperial Vault.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Luo De would first bring Avril over to sort out those data.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Luo De felt that there were too few people with knowledge and skills in his territory, not enough at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially if he were to establish a school in the future, talent would be even scarcer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps, Prophet Bai Shuang could also be utilized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De did not stay long at the salt mine, just for one night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had a meal with Jess and the miners, drank some wine, and inquired about their living conditions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cave wasn’t as cold as the outside, and the food sent was ample, so the miners had no issues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a small request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They hoped Luo De could send some women over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With ample food and drink, only that sort of thing remained for the miners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike soldiers who could rotate shifts back home, they were long repressed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After listening, Luo De smiled and promised that if there were women willing to come, he would arrange it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The miners thanked him profusely, toasting him repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Luo De needed to set off the next day, only having two cups with Jess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the sun rose the next morning, Luo De set out with his group, hurrying back to Frost Leaf Town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon arriving, Luo De headed straight to the house storing rye and wheat without returning to the manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the temperature inside stayed fairly optimal, the rye and wheat had mostly sprouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, Luo De instructed Otto to lead the slaves to light the fires, heating the fire pit, and spread the sprouted grains on the flue pipe and fire pit for drying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This process required careful temperature control, maintaining it just hot enough to hold but not too hot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Essentially, avoiding scorching the grains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This process lasted a whole day and night, with Luo De constantly overseeing, checking occasionally to prevent the slaves from dozing off and ruining the grains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once these sprouted grains were dried, they were known as malt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, malt sugar could be made from the malt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De summoned all the working slaves around him, guiding them personally,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Grind all this malt with a stone mortar, crushing the malt shells.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But don’t use too much force, to avoid turning the malt into powder.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crushed malt allows for better sugar extraction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, turning it into fine powder would cause it to become mushy in water, clogging the filter cloth, making filtration difficult, and clouding the sugar liquid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After grinding, soak it in warm water for half a day, then put it in a pot to cook.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But the water shouldn’t be too hot, with the same temperature requirement as during drying.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once it’s about done, use coarse cloth to filter out the residues, leaving the malt water for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De reminded the slaves, \"Don’t throw away the residues either, they can be used for making cakes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, start working now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the malt sugar water emerged, sugar would need to be boiled further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But teaching them all at once was impossible to remember, so Luo De didn’t waste words with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, my Lord!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The slaves answered in unison, starting to busy themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De exchanged a few words with Otto, then returned to the manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Avril was busy studying Sea Race scripts, Luo De placed the Crystal Ball in front of her,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come, test your spiritual strength.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De had a curious thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Vivian was Avril’s embodiment, would their spiritual strengths be the same?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Avril looked puzzled, knowing Vivian had been tested, and wondered why Luo De wanted to test her as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, she placed her hand on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The swirling mist appeared once more, as dots of light floated up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De’s expression changed dramatically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were actually eleven!\u003C\u002Fp>",1315,"2026-05-30T15:19:45.195Z","2026-06-01T04:31:34.172Z",1,"novelbin.me","d0a8d80ff80ad472e1f36f03f3e400476872c6a1e678816401da7b88b8bb089b","farming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-chapter-183","farming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-chapter-181",776,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffarming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-cover.jpg"]
