Chapter 104: Carli, The Youth Resident’s Day (Interlude)

Hello everyone, Carli here~

Maybe you guys will forget this ordinary girl after a few days, so to make a long story short, I would just tell you guys about me briefly. In short, I was one of the youths who was being saved by Master Alex from the bandit lair at that certain night.

These days were the happiest day of my life! I never imagined there would be a day when I could sleep in a comfortable bed and eat fully without worry inside my own house! 

Ma… it's not exactly my own house, but our house, since all the youth who survived and helped by Alex Master, decided to live together in one big house with Alex Master's advice.

Alex Master said we could have our own house after we get someone to marry and created a family… but, I think all the girls in this place wouldn't marry anyone else, except him. 

It's included me!

'Alex Master is very heroic and cool! There's no way that I will fall in love with someone else except him in this lifetime!

The problem is… he preferred a mature woman rather than a younger girl like me…'

Sigh…

'It seems I have to wait for a couple of years before joining his harem'

Today Alex Master brought all the non-combatant people to a spacious wide farm that he already built. He introduced us to some weird-shaped carriage called a "tractor". 

The incredible thing was, this magical iron thing could make the tedious farming became easier! We didn't have to use the obsolete iron farming tools to tiredly cultivated the lands!

Alex Master showed us how to use the magical iron carriage-like thing by riding in it. The tractor moving by itself without any help of an animal or monster, it started roaring and vibrated madly before moving and automatically cultivated the land that it passed by.

Dudududud*

Dududu*

After having a round trip throughout the farmland for an hour, the tractor back and finished cultivating a large plot of farmland. I could see the people petrified in place and opened their mouths in disbelieve after witnessing these miraculous scenes.

It couldn't be helped, since to cultivate that large part of farmland, usually a farmer needed half a day to cultivate it with the iron hoe or the traditional farming tools. 

But with this carriage, the tedious and tiring process became a lot shorter and easier!

It couldn't be imagined, if this thing was known by some lords, they sure will chasing Master to the end of this world just to get this tractor thing for themselves!

In the Gharam Kingdom, the famine in some rural areas was a huge problem, which was what my deceased parent said to me before… 

My deceased parents explained the reason our family could barely survive and still could fill our belly throughout the year was because of our's benevolent lord. For some reason, the lord in our territory setting the tax to a minimum. Unlike the other lord who commonly sucked the commoner dry to their bone, it seemed our lord was quite benevolent to not exploit us.

But even with the benevolent lord's policy, my family was still didn't have any food from time to time and had to bear the hunger when we got a bad harvest.

With the current situation, It could be imagined, if the noble seeing this thing, surely they would use whatever method to get one from Master Alex.

[So? What do you think? Isn't this quite amazing? Anyway, you guys can use this thing to cultivate the land easier. Not only that, I will introduce you to the other tools that will help you to farm easier!]

After Alex Master saying this, we heard a roaring sound like the tractor that Master ride before from the distance.

Dudududududdu*

We saw some of the Silver Wolf member riding something of a weirdly carriage-like thing which could move by itself towards our direction. Before long, The huge iron thing started stopping not far from Master Alex as the Silver Wolf member got down one by one from the iron thing before standing in an orderly manner behind Alex Master.

With the magical iron thing already placed not far from us, Alex Master started introducing the tools one by one and continued to impress us whenever he explained what these weird carriages could do in helping us farm the land! These huge monstrous iron-like carriage sure would help lessen the time for us farming the land!

Even there's something called a harvester that Master said could harvest the corps without a hitch automatically just by riding and moving it throughout the farm.

There's some part of a confusing theory of farming that I didn't quite understand, like fertilizer, the rotating season corps stuff, etc. But since seeing some of the adults seemingly nodded in understanding, I decided to just ask them in detail later.

After finished introducing the farming matter, Master brought all of us to the spacious barn vicinity. Along the way, I could saw some livestock like Cows, pigs, sheep, and chickens.

When I saw these animals, I was somewhat slightly confused after realizing that these animals' appearance wasn't completely the same as the one in our village.

I somewhat still recognized it since some of the animal features had some similarity with the one in our village. But, After observed it carefully, these animals somehow looked healthier and cuter than the ones from our villages.

After arriving at our destination, Master started to introduce us to some of the facilities that were already built inside the barn vicinity. 

Before that, It seems there's a place called a granary not far from this barn. These granary things were very huge and placed between the farm and barn. Master said we could place the harvest as well as the dairy product in there.

After that, Master started guiding us throughout the barn and introduced some of the facilities inside it. There's something called a milking room as well as a cheese-making room in one of the buildings in the barn vicinity.

After hearing Alex Master's introduction in these silvery and iron-y facilities that full of pipe and stuff, like usual, the people around me opened their mouths in disbelieve expression. We already knew about the electricity thingy that had the same characteristic as magic power, but seeing that this electricity thing could be used to move this complicated stuff and helped our job to become easier was still quite unbelievable how many times we see it.

With this facility, the usual tedious process to make cheese became simpler! not only that, with this big facility, we could mass-produce the cheese in high quantity at once. Alex Master said he would sell some of the cheese and the other dairy product as well as the harvest throughout the kingdom. He said we could have the money from the sale for ourselves in the form of salary.

But, this salary thing makes us more confused. Since we already have a place to sleep and could produce our own food, to even get money from it as well is quite unbelievable. Moreover, where we should spend our money anyway?

But after telling us that he will release us from the slave status after a few months living in this place, I quite understood what his intention was.

'As expected… Master is a good person…'

I saw some of the people had their eyes redden after hearing Master's kind intention. Even though we tried to not mind our slave status too much, but somehow, deep inside our hearts, there's still this uncomfortable feeling.

But since we never get any rough treatment, forget about that, God, even the treatment we got was even better than the commoner who lived in the big city! 

We get our own house, as well as the farm and livestock. We slept in a fluffy and comfortable bed that could be compared with the one noble usually had in their manor and eat delicious food every day without worry. Just these treatments were enough for us to worship him as our lord and god!

But, not only master didn't being arrogant and overbearing, he still kept humble and always treat us like a family member since we came to this place!

Recalling my experience in these past few days, I couldn't help myself teared up a little. A grateful and warm feeling growing inside my heart… the love that I had for him increased even more!

'Aaah…. It's really unfortunate that Master prefers a mature woman… if not…'

I hurriedly rubbed my eyes to wipe my tears as I tried to stabilize my condition. Before long, I saw the other also stopped sobbing and started to back to their sense.

Seeing that we already calming ourselves, Master smiled at us and signify us with his hand to follow him. We left the cheese-making facilities before brought us in front of a large building.

[This building is food processing facilities, in short….]

Master started introducing what a food processing facility was. He told us that in this facility we can dry-aging and smoking the meat as well as processing the leftover meat to make a sausage and something called "chicken nugget" to mass-produced it.

Master said we could utilize some of the leftover parts of the meat that were hard to cook and grind it in here to be processed into minced meat. Not only we could trim the meat into a high-quality cut and take the best part for our own consumption and selling it at a high price, but we could also use the trimmed part into making sausages and chicken nuggets for more profit and food supply.

Master said, by mixing the minced meat of hard to cook part as well as the leftover fat with some spices, we could make delicious sausages and chicken nuggets.

In this food processing facility, there's also a place where we could processing some cereal into flour!

Master explained that we didn't have to use a traditional grinder that needed a lot of man-power to process the wheat into flour anymore. By using this so-called "machine", we just need to put the wheat or other cereal that we need to process, into the machine and just need to press something like a button in the machine to start the machine to process our grain into flour!

'It's really a miracle!!'

After hearing these weird tools and machinery that Master described to us, I became amazed and shouting this inside my head!

'Where did master get all of this weird magic tool and machine-thing? The others said that master possessed Space&Time magic, did he get this thing from the other continent?'

While I still pondering about this stuff, master ended the introduction of the facilities he built for us

[So, That's all for today. Since I already take my time to create these things for you guys, I hope all of you started to work to produce your own food. Since farming is taking a lot of time before bearing the harvest, I will still supply you with the vegetable as well as flour monthly]

Seeing that we didn't have any objection, he nodded in satisfaction and continued

[I hope you can explore yourself more and find out about your own expertise, who knows when more people are coming and staying in this place, you guys can have some free time and creating your own business like bakery or tailor. For now, you have to sustain yourself by using the facilities I already provided. For further work distribution, you guys can discuss it in detail with Sofia]

After hearing her name mentioned by Master, a beautiful mature beastkin woman separated among us as she walked to Master's side and stood silently beside Alex Master.

[Sofia, I left the rest to you~]

After saying this, Master kissed Miss Sofia's lips gently before leaving us with some of the Silver Wolf members following closely behind him.

Seeing these romantic, newlywed scene, I enviously looking at Miss Sofia.

'Haah… I really want to have master love like her…'

I looked at my slightly bulging chest pitifully as I envying miss Sofia in my mind before sighing in sadness~

Sigh…

'Be patient, in 5 years my body sure will grow up and become voluptuous like miss Sofia!'

I firmed my heart and started gazing at miss Sofia who will giving her speech.

'I wonder what kind of job I will get later? I hope I can get the work in food processing facilities, the machine-like thing seems easy to use, so the work will not be tiring for sure, right?'

With this hope, I patiently wait for miss Sofia to speak.
