Chapter 931: Elisa Has Come Out

No.

In fact, when she landed and heard the head maid's address, the smart her had already figured it out.

At the same time, she also remembered that when her parents brought her here from their hometown, it was precisely because they heard there was a new lord here with a lot of land that needed people to cultivate.

It's just that she didn't expect her parents wouldn't be able to hold on until here.

And not long after she followed people here, she became the lord's disciple.

At ten years old, she didn't understand what it meant for fate to toy with people.

But she knew that these children she had picked up, who were just like her, probably wouldn't starve to death.

As for learning...

It was good enough just to have something to learn.

But she didn't take this small matter to heart at all.

After all, with her parents gone, she still had her younger brothers and sisters.

And now she also had a teacher.

Even if she wasn't given any wages, having her food and drink taken care of was already very good.

After all, she had also worked in the fields back in her hometown.

That was why, after hearing Lan Qingyou's question, she had very respectfully put down what was in her hand and answered seriously.

As for Lan Qingyou, upon hearing Feng say she was ten years old, she immediately activated her inner complaining mode.

'Tsk tsk, ten years old...'

'Looking at her face and bone structure, Lan Qingyou originally thought the other party was only seven or eight years old.'

'I didn't expect she was already ten.'

'It seems it was still caused by long-term malnutrition.'

However, she wasn't worried.

Anyway, right now she was so poor that she only had money left. Raising a few children was still very easy.

Thus, in the following period of time.

During the day, Lan Qingyou researched lifestyle magic arrays, and at night she taught Feng knowledge regarding alchemy and magic arrays.

Of course.

Apart from learning the basic knowledge in these aspects.

Lan Qingyou also hired culture class teachers for these little guys.

Specifically responsible for teaching the little guys how to read and write.

And because of her own reasons, Lan Qingyou adopted a very crude teaching method.

That was something like force-feeding.

Instilling all the knowledge she knew into Feng all at once.

She had previously written basic textbooks for the Witch Academy, so she somewhat had some experience in teaching.

In addition, Lan Qingyou also found the executive officer of Maple Leaf Territory.

And had him build an orphanage and a shelter.

The orphans in the orphanage were completely free of charge, anyway, she had money.

As for the vagrants taken in by the shelter, they only had two destinations.

One was to learn a skill and then leave to find their own meals, and the other was to pass away on the spot.

After all, Lan Qingyou had money, but she wasn't stupid.

Giant babies like this who only ate and didn't work should just ascend to heaven on the spot.

Lest they waste the air of her Maple Leaf Territory.

One had to know that because Lan Qingyou had set up this and that magic array, the entire Maple Leaf Territory could now be considered a 'quasi-heavy magic zone'.

In other words, even breathing the air here brought in a large amount of magic power.

So Lan Qingyou could truly say the words 'being alive is just wasting air'.

Of course.

Aside from these matters.

As the lord, Lan Qingyou also promulgated some policies regarding the people's livelihood.

Among them, the most important one was building roads.

Not the kind of dirt roads that civil engineering magicians would slightly half-ass.

But proper ones paved with stone slabs.

After all, it was common knowledge known by everyone that if one wanted to get rich, they must first build roads.

Moreover, the locations of those newly planned villages and towns were not considered that remote.

Even because this place was large enough, several villages had opened up fields according to Lan Qingyou's previous ideas.

Used for planting grain and herbs.

Jokes aside.

This place was a quasi-heavy magic zone now.

And a very safe heavy magic zone at that.

The grain and herbs grown in this kind of place would be much more fragrant and have better effects than those from ordinary areas.

There would be no problem treating them as cash crops to plant.

Not to mention there were also orchards, pastures, and so on.

With well-developed water transport, although wanting to make a massive fortune might be unlikely.

Not having to worry about food and drink was definitely not a problem.

Even if they were attacked, they could rely solely on Maple Leaf Territory's ecosystem to achieve internal circulation.

After all, she was someone who had experienced the 'Forsaken War'.

She was very clear about what was the most important in such critical situations.

That was why Lan Qingyou included the lake water within it when constructing the magic barrier.

Although it was also partly because the magic array was circular.

But more importantly, she needed the lake water.

Furthermore, fish and such could also be raised in the lake.

If they were ever besieged, in an extreme situation.

It would absolutely be no problem for the entire Maple Leaf Territory to feed around two hundred thousand people.

In addition, Lan Qingyou had deployed nearly ten thousand combat magic golems of different troop types to patrol the one city, two towns, and over a dozen villages.

Achieving fully automated integration of patrolling, plus early warning, plus attacking, plus defending, plus suppression.

"Teacher, I finished drawing it."

This day.

Just as Lan Qingyou was doing the final adjustments on the lifestyle magic array, Feng hopped and skipped into her workshop holding a piece of paper.

During this half a month.

Although it wasn't enough to completely nurse the little girl's body back to health.

But it was visible to the naked eye that some flesh had started to appear on her face.

And her originally sallow skin was gradually transforming.

...

A place like an alchemist's workshop didn't allow anyone to enter without the person's personal permission.

But towards Feng, Lan Qingyou was very lenient.

Lan Qingyou wouldn't stop whatever she wanted to do.

Of course.

This was built on the premise that the other party had completed the assignments she gave out.

"Is that so, let me see."

Lan Qingyou put down the Crystal Pen in her hand, reached out, and took the piece of paper Feng handed over.

"Mhm... this place has a minor flaw, and here too..."

"None of them are major problems, but they will lower the efficacy of this magic array by a tenth."

"That's why I said you must absolutely not underestimate minor flaws on a magic array."

As Lan Qingyou looked at it, she used the Crystal Pen to write and draw on it to give Feng feedback.

Although she said this verbally.

But just as she said, these were just some minor flaws.

Calculating it, this was much better than her own first time drawing a magic array.

She remembered that the first magic array she drew back then was, strictly speaking, an alchemy array.

At that time, she wanted to refine kerosene or something else.

So she had a master stonemason prepare quite a few stone slabs to serve as the base.

If it were now.

Even without a base, it wouldn't be a big problem for Lan Qingyou.

Lan Qingyou also had to admit that the girl Feng's potential in alchemy was indeed very great.

She had only taught her for half a month.

Under the premise that she didn't know how to read, the other party could reach this level merely relying on Glyphology and Symbology.

If this wasn't a genius, what was it?

She had simply picked up a treasure.

She believed that any alchemist would be unable to control themselves and want to take her as a disciple after seeing Feng's abilities.

"Your Excellency Marquis, Miss Elisa from the Aureolus Family is waiting for you in the drawing room."

"Oh!"

Lan Qingyou raised an eyebrow.

Had this guy finally come out?

This guy who hadn't shown her face for these past few months actually ran over to her territory silently now.

Then... there was definitely a matter.
