    The world's first crowdsourcing-driven asian bl novel translation community

    Ella came to the largest market in Tania this time. In addition to local merchants, there are also many foreign merchants here. Some of these foreign merchants come from other regions, and some come from other countries.They will all come to Tania, and a large part of them are to sell the goods in their hands to the nobles who came to the delta with King Sathya, and then use the money they earn to buy the freshly harvested grain, although Miou merchants are moreI like the gold in Sathia, but for the people of Feiluo, there is no more secure commodity than food. Sathia is the largest overproduction of food on the entire continent, and many countries with underdeveloped agriculture themselves need itOnly by importing grain from Sathya can the food and clothing of the people be guaranteed. If merchants can buy a large amount of grain and bring it back to their own country to sell, it will be a profitable business.

    But recently it is the day when the commoners are busy harvesting, most of them are busy in the fields, so the market is not as lively as Ella thought, but it is not deserted, at this time the richest people in SathyaThose people were all in Tanis, and the nobles were surrounded by a large number of servants and guards. These people who didn't need to work on the fields were the main customers of the merchants.

    Ella looked at the houses along the street. There would be a clay tablet engraved with Sathya script in front of the shops in the market. The name of the shop was written on these clay tablets. However, because the writing here is not popular, the clay tabletsSome simple and easy-to-understand patterns will also be drawn on the board to represent the types of goods sold in the store.

    In addition to shops, there are many stalls in the market. These stalls do not have clay tablets like signboards, but the things on the stalls are clear at a glance.

    In front of every shop and stall, there are people shouting loudly to attract customers.

    Ella walked and watched all the way. In addition to planning to buy some materials to make cosmetics today, she couldn’t help but buy things she was interested in. Unknowingly, the maids and guards who followed her were full of them.something.

    Seeing the sweat on their hot heads, Ella was a little embarrassed and planned to find a place for them to rest.

    The guard who was familiar with the place heard her saying that she wanted to rest, and hurriedly said: "Miss, there is a restaurant in front. The food in their restaurant is very famous in Tanis, and there is a separate compartment for guests to use."

    The guards all remembered His Majesty's instructions and kept in mind not to let the princess show her face outside.

    "Then go there and rest."

    The restaurant the guard said was not far away, on the other side of the market, it was an area they hadn't been to yet.

    The guards led the way, and Ella's attention was still on the shops on both sides. She hadn't planned to buy any more, but a shop she entered made her stop.

    Ella stopped the guard: "Wait a minute, I want to go inside and have a look."

    This is a grain store, and outside the grain store there are clay tablets representing the purchase of grain. There are many such grain stores in the market. They not only buy and sell grain, but also sell seeds.

    What stopped Ella was a few sacks stacked in the corner of the shop, and some small golden grains fell from one of the torn sacks.

    Ella walked into the store and headed straight to the corner, bent over to pick up a few ears and looked carefully, making sure that they were not ears of wheat but ears of rice.

    The clerk who had seen Ella come in quickly walked over and said, "What do you need, this guest?"

    The clerks of these shops in the market are very good at watching people. Although Ella is covered from head to toe, there are obviously maids and guards around her. No matter how you look at it, they are all ladies from wealthy families, maybe even nobles.Such a guest naturally cannot be overemphasized in how warm and careful the reception is.

    Ella pointed to the sacks and said, "What are these?"

    The clerk was very familiar with the situation in the shop, looked at the sack and said: "This is a kind of grain brought by the caravan from Ya'an.Tanis also has it in our store, if Miss likes it, you can buy some and try it at home."

    The country of Ya’an, Ella, has been told by Kabbah that it is a country in the most northeastern part of the African continent. It is very far away from Sathia. There is basically no communication between the two countries, and even caravans rarely travel that far.In terms of business activities, Ella thinks that the geographical location of Ya'an is likely to be in the location of India on the original earth.

    And if Ya'an is really a replica of India, it will further show that the continental plate of this world is completely different from the earth that Ella knows, after all, the original India is in Asia.

    "How much is it?"

    When the clerk heard her asking the price, he was overjoyed. The rice had been piled up in the corner for a while, and it was a slow-selling item that even the boss had a headache.

    There is nothing wrong with the clerk’s introduction, but what he didn’t say is that Sathya people don’t like the taste of this food very much, but the rice that the boss bought on the spur of the moment is very expensive, and those who can afford it dislike its taste too much.People who don’t care about the taste and only care about whether they can fill their stomachs can’t afford it, so it’s been almost two months since these rice was bought by the boss. They have only sold a small part of it, and the rest are piled up inThe corners are almost infested with worms.

    The clerk quickly quoted: "One calorie of rice only costs 1 Deben silver. If customers buy more, it will be cheaper."

    The translation of one cal here means a bag, which is a unit of weight specially used for grains. A bag of grains is about 76.8 liters, which is equivalent to about 46 kilograms of barley and about 60 kilograms of wheat. If it is replaced by rice, it is about 58 kilograms.

    Of course, these are grains that have not been hulled, and the actual weight will shrink a little more after hulling.

    The deben mentioned by the clerk is not a currency unit, but a weight unit specially used for metals. At present, Deben, Kate and Ruiying are commonly used. In conversion, 1 deben = 10 Kate = 12 Ruiying.

    The weight of 1 deben is about 91 grams, while the weight of the currency handed down from Miou mainland is only about 5 grams. 1 deben copper is equivalent to the weight of 18 copper coins.

    As far as Ella knows, the current price of a bag of barley or wheat is 2 deben copper, and the exchange rate between silver and copper is 1:100, which means that the price of the same bag of rice is fifty times that of wheat.

    At this price, not to mention ordinary civilians, even nobles may not be willing to buy it, especially now that the purchasing power of gold, silver and copper is very strong, but civilians have almost no channels to obtain them, and they can't even take out a single Deben copper.

    Although Ella bought the rice for other purposes, she also felt that the price was too high, so she said directly: "5 Kate silver a bag, if I can, I'll buy them all."

    In fact, she is not very good at bargaining, but she understands the truth of haggling the price by half. Regardless of whether the price is worthless, it is right to pay half the price first or even lower.

    The clerk didn't expect her asking price to be so ruthless, and he directly refused if it was someone else, but he looked at the guard behind Ella, and he could only say: "I can't decide this, just wait a moment, I will ask our boss to come outtalk to you."

    Hearing that someone wanted to buy the rice that no one cared about, the shopkeeper who was resting behind came out quickly.

    When he came out, he wanted to bargain with Ella again to make the price too high, but when he and Ella looked at each other, the owner of the store was in a daze, and immediately changed his mind.

    He said politely: "Of course it's no problem, just pay the price you said, and we can also deliver it to your door for free."

    There are five complete bags of rice in the store, and there is a small part left over after splitting and selling in the store. It looks like about ten catties, but the owner of the store did not hesitate to give it to him as a gift.Ella, she only needs to pay 2 dubs and 5 kat silver to buy all the rice.

    Most of the money was put on Norris. When he followed the clerk to pay and leave the delivery address, the owner was still around Ella, enthusiastically promoting other products in the store.

    But looking at the shopkeeper's attentive appearance, she suspected that she had bargained too little.

    "We still have a lot of products from other countries here, would you like to have a look again, honored guest?"

    At this time, Ella realized that this grain store and the two shops next door belonged to this merchant. They not only sold grain, but also spices and various luxury goods.

    Ella found the rice here, so she naturally wanted to see if there were any other surprises, so accompanied by the shop owner, she visited all three shops.The aisle that can be used for people to enter and exit after being full of goods is already very narrow. If Debbie and the guards followed her, it would be too crowded, so Ella took advantage of the situation and asked them to guard the door.

    Ella was only interested in the seeds in the store. After thinking about which seeds she had, she selected seeds with similar appearance and size in the store.I bought all the seeds, but I have little interest in other things.

    Seeing this, the shop owner said, "After a while, we will have a batch of new products arriving in our shop. There are many seeds that Sathya doesn't have in them. If you are interested in these, you can come and see them next time."

    Ella nodded: "Okay, I will come again."

    "Miss, the money has already been paid."

    When Norris came back from paying the bill, her hands were empty, because the enthusiastic store owner offered to help her send back the other things she bought, and Ella naturally would not disagree.

    "Then let's go."

    The owner of the store sent them out of the gate, and after watching them go away, he returned to the store. Although the smile on his face had softened a lot, it could be seen that he was still very happy.

    This surprised the clerk who was familiar with him.

    "Uncle, didn't your rice make no money, why are you so happy?"

    The clerk knew that the purchase price of the rice was very high, and the owner sold it at 5 Kate a bag for almost no profit.

    In the past, with the character of the shop owner, he would never sell it, let alone free home delivery, but delivery in their store has always been charged.

    The shop owner didn't reply to him, but instead asked, "Where is the address they left?"

    When the clerk heard him ask this, he immediately excitedly said: "Let us send it to His Majesty's palace and hand it over to the guards at the gate, uncle, are they the guards in the palace?"

    Hearing this address, the owner of the store knew that his guess was correct, and nodded more and more proudly: "It's not just as simple as the people in the palace, if I'm not mistaken, the lady who is protected by them should be the one who is said to beAn exotic princess who will make His Majesty the King fall in love at first sight."

    The owner of the store is a successful businessman. Although he is not a nobleman, he still has a certain status in Tanis, and his sources are very well-informed, especially the foreign princess who has recently become famous. Many people know that their Majesty fell in love with a beautiful princess at first sight.The most special thing about this princess is that she has long silver hair and purple eyes.

    So the shop owner recognized Ella as soon as she saw her eyes, but the shop assistant didn't dare to stare at a noble lady because of her status and age, so she didn't see such obvious features.

    If those rumors are true, then this princess is likely to become His Majesty's true favorite princess. Facing such a promising princess, the owner of the store is naturally no one can be too enthusiastic, let alone the princess proposedAlthough the price didn't make any money, he didn't suffer a loss. If he could build a good relationship with her, how could he be unhappy.

    Of course, what pleased the shop owner the most was that the princess promised to visit his shop again, and the shop owner could tell that she wasn't just trying to put it off, so there was a high probability that she would really come.

    Then he has to prepare well. It is best to buy more different seeds from other places. He must satisfy the princess. Maybe she can get on line with the royal family and make his family's business even better.Floors.

    ·····

    The surprise surprise at the grain store was the biggest harvest of the day, and it even made Ella turn back to visit the grain stores that she had just passed by but never entered before, wondering if there would be other surprises inside.

    But have been shopping for a long time today, and the weather is gradually getting hotter. Others feel fine, but Ella is really a little hot and can't stand it.

    So they ate and rested for a while at the restaurant the guard said, and then they were ready to go back.

    Debbie was worried that Ella would be tired, so she suggested, "Miss, why don't you go back in a sedan chair?" There are always many bearers gathered in places like the market, and those who need them can hire them at any time.

    Ella refused: "No, I'm not that delicate."

    They left the market, returned to the place where the boat was parked, retrieved the boat with a wooden sign, and returned to the palace before noon.

    As soon as she stepped into the gate of the palace, Ella couldn't wait to take off her cloak and veil, feeling like she was alive.

    "Phew, it's much more comfortable this way."

    Debbie hugged the cloak and veil that Ella had taken off, and said with a smile, "Your Highness, you can take a bath and have a massage to relax, it will be more comfortable."

    "I thought so too." Ella touched her coiled hair, feeling that it was already wet with sweat, and it would stink if it wasn't washed.

    She turned to look at the captain of the guard behind her: "Noris, please help me tell His Majesty that I am back, so I won't bother him."

    Norris said that he would report after sending her back to the bedroom, and asked if the rice in the things she bought would be sent to the kitchen-he also thought that the rice was bought by Ella to eat.

    "Send it to me later."

    When he met with Lucis just in time for lunch, he wanted to wait for His Majesty to have dinner before entering, but the guards guarding the door opened the door for him as soon as they saw him.

    No way, His Majesty was in a really bad mood this morning. All the officials who came to report to work were scolded miserably. Those who served His Majesty could guess that it must be related to the princess leaving the palace, so the servants came early in the morning.He told the guards that they must inform him as soon as they see anyone around Ayla.

    Moreover, Norris was originally the captain of the guard who accompanied Lucis. The guards knew that he was sent to guard the princess, so they let him in as soon as they saw him coming.

    Sure enough, he saw Norris coming in, and without waiting for him to salute, Lucis asked directly, "The princess is back?"

    "Yes, Your Majesty, the princess has already returned to the bedroom to rest."

    Then Norris recounted Ella's itinerary outside today.

    "Just shopping? Has she been in contact with anyone?"

    Norris recalled it for a while, and said with certainty: "His Royal Highness has only been in contact with those businessmen, but there is no problem with their conversation."

    He stayed with Ella all the time, except when he was in the restaurant, but Ella was sitting in a cubicle in the restaurant, and there were only her and the maid Debbie in it, and although their guards also ate outside the cubicle, the whole process wasSitting at the table closest to the cubicle, was sure that no one else went in except the waiter who was in charge of serving the food, and the door of the cubicle was always open during this process, and also knew that the waiter and the princessNo contact whatsoever.

    Lucis was very satisfied with this answer, praised Norris rarely, asked him to protect Ayla, and let him back down.

    After Norris left from Lucis, he went to the gate to pick up Ella's shopping.

    There were too many things, so he asked a few people to help move them to Ella's bedroom, and only moved into the bedroom after Ella finished washing.

    "Your Highness, why did you buy so much wheat?"

    Tetis didn't know rice, so she thought it was a kind of wheat that she had never seen before.

    Ella wiped her hair and replied, "It's not wheat, it's rice. I like the smell of it."

    "His Highness has eaten before?"

    Ella nodded: "Well, rice is also grown in my hometown. I thought I couldn't eat it here."

    Ella is not only talking about her former motherland, but also has rice in the fairy tale world, but her country is not suitable for planting, and the grain stores are all purchased from other countries, so the price is also very expensive, but as a princess, she still wants to eat rice.Affordable, especially her king father knows she likes to eat, and there will be one or two sacks of rice in the grain sent every year.

    Ella bought these rice because she wanted to grow rice in Sathya. The climate here is actually very suitable for the growth of rice. It is very suitable for two seasons a year. Now the time is suitable for planting one season of late rice.

    It doesn't matter if the rice she bought looks a bit shriveled and the germination rate is not high. She plans to secretly replace these and the rice in the ring.Good thing though - the time in the ring is off-limits and doesn't affect the germination rate of these rices.

    Similarly, she bought a bunch of seeds in the grain store, just planning to mix in some of the seeds she had, so as to enrich her dining table.

    She only remembered this when she saw the rice. Fortunately, she remembered it, otherwise she might have missed the time for sowing many seeds.

    However, given the temperature in Sathya all year round, it seems that there is no need to pay special attention to the time of planting, right?

    Ella thought about how to get a piece of land, but after much deliberation, there was no good way, because the land was not free to buy and sell, and it seemed inappropriate for her to rent land.

    She had to ask her maids: "What should I do if I want a piece of land?"

    Among the four maids, only Tetis could give her some advice: "If your Highness wants land, you can ask His Majesty. Of course, if you don't want to trouble Your Majesty, you can also ask someone to ask if there is anyone who wants to sell the land."

    Ella was surprised when she heard this: "Didn't it mean that land cannot be bought and sold?"

    "It is indeed said so, but in fact there will still be people buying and selling, just changing the name."

    Tetis explained to her that because the land in Sathya nominally belongs to the king, the land cannot be bought and sold, but in fact, the nobles have their own land with permanent use rights, and these lands are not actually the king.That's right, so the king will not care about the nobles buying and selling land privately, especially if they can sell the land in the name of rewards, gifts, etc., so it is not considered a private sale.

    "So if someone is willing to sell the land, His Highness only needs to pay him to 'gift' it to you, and then write a contract and register it with the land manager."

    Ella felt like she was witnessing the country's slow transition to land privatization.

    "Then you guys help me...forget it, I'd better ask His Majesty."

    Ella originally wanted them to ask for help, but thinking about Lucis's angry reaction when she found out that she didn't tell him about the temple last time, she thought she should go to him to discuss this issue.

    "By the way, Tetis, how did you go to the temple today? Did you find anyone?"

    Speaking of this, Tetis became a little angry: "The priestess who made up for you has been found. After interrogation, the priestess said that someone gave her money and threatened her with her family, but the other party started from head to toe."She didn't show her face at the end, and she didn't know who the other party was."

    "But another priestess who will cleanse you may not be easy to find."

    "What's wrong?"

    "The priestess in charge of the next priestess said that she originally arranged for another priestess to perform the cleansing ceremony for you, but that priestess was found fainted in her room, and no one knew anyone else.The priestess who cleansed you, so it's likely she wasn't really a temple priest."

    Priests of the same level were all dressed the same, and it was still dark at that time, the illumination of the brazier was very low, and most people nowadays had night blindness, so no one paid special attention to a priestess who kept her head down.

    Ella's head got dizzy when she heard it: "It's so complicated just to help me take a cold shower?"

    Regarding this point, Tetis was also terrified, thinking that if the other party directly assassinated Her Highness instead of taking a cold shower, the consequences would be disastrous.

    Ona, who had been listening to them all the time, suddenly said nervously: "His Royal Highness, could it be that she added something to the water to harm you? Do you really not feel any discomfort? Otherwise, we should ask a doctor to take a lookBar?"

    "Don't worry, I really have nothing uncomfortable."

    Maybe there was originally, but she drank the potion to treat it herself, and all the problems were gone.

    The others also became nervous when they heard Ona's words, and Tetis said directly: "You still need to ask the doctor to see it, Ona, go to Norris and ask him to send someone to bring the doctor over."

    Before Ella refused, Ona immediately ran out of the dormitory to find someone.

    Tetis turned to Ella again: "Your Highness, someone is endangering your life now, and you must tell Your Majesty about this matter."

    "Understood, I'll talk to him later." Ayla also knew that this matter had reached the point where Lucis had to come forward, and the other party might have really used some means to try to kill her, but it didn't work.That's all.

    Her attention turned back to the previous matter: "So the two priestesses are not related?"

    "The bribed priestess said she didn't know about it, and judging from the methods of the two things, it should be done by different people."

    After all, one just wants to embarrass her, while the other wants her life.

    Ella was helpless: "Then I'm really hated." It's all Lucis' fault.

    "The other side of the temple let me ask you what you want to do with that priestess who made a mistake."

    "Is she really threatened?"

    "This can't be confirmed. The people in the temple only received some property of unknown origin in her room."

    "Then let the temple handle it by itself, they should have their own rules and regulations."

    Tetis nodded to express her understanding. She thought that the temple would probably drive the priestess out of the temple because of His Highness's words, but at least she could save her life. If the priestess were to deal with it instead, the priestess would definitely be executed.

    ·····

    Soon, the doctor was called in.

    Although not all the doctors in Sathya are priests, the doctors with the best medical skills are definitely from the temple.

    The doctor who was invited was an elderly healing priest, who was said to be a doctor who was good at detoxification. After he asked Ella about any discomfort, he did some examinations and finally told Ella that he was fine.Find out what signs of poisoning she has.

    But the doctor also said: "If you have any discomfort, you can see a specialist doctor."

    The doctors in Sathya are somewhat similar to the doctors in modern hospitals. They all specialize in treating a certain disease. Those who look at the head don’t look at the hands, and those who look at the eyes don’t look at the stomach. If you feel uncomfortable, you have to find the doctor in charge of that part..

    "I don't have any discomfort, please run for a while." Ella actually knew that there was nothing wrong with her, and asking the doctor was also to reassure others.

    But the news that Ella had invited a doctor still reached Lucis' ears. As soon as she sent the doctor away, Lucis came over.

    "you are sick?"

    "I'm fine, but they were worried about my safety, so they went to see a doctor."

    She told Lucis about someone in Tetis pretending to be a priestess, and she also mentioned that the makeup priestess left it to the temple to handle.

    Lucis heard that she didn't want to pursue the priestess who made up herself, and agreed with the temple's punishment for such things, but only if the woman didn't lie.

    Lucis, who had already planned to send someone to interrogate himself, focused on the most suspicious thing at the moment: "So something was added to that water?"

    Ella was helpless: "It's just a guess. Now we can't find the impostor and we don't know what she did."

    Lu Xisi's face was cold, and a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes: "I will find her out."

    Lucis was worried about Ella, and then called several other doctors who were good at different subjects to diagnose Ella.

    All the doctors who were called took turns to examine Ella, and finally agreed that the princess was healthy and there was no problem.

    This is even more strange. The other party spent so much time doing this just to bet that the princess will get sick after taking a cold shower?

    Everyone else was at a loss, only Ella knew that she might have been tricked at the time, but she took medicine to save herself.

    And the healing potion she drank is a universal potion, which is effective for most diseases. When she drank it, her body just started to feel uncomfortable and no other symptoms appeared, so she couldn't be sure what she was at that time.Condition.

    Because of this incident, although Ella was diagnosed to be healthy, everyone was still very nervous, and hoped that she would rest more and minimize going out.

    "Now I don't know if there are other behind-the-scenes people behind the scenes. In short, you must be careful, Your Highness."

    Ella was a little dumbfounded by their nervous attitude, but to be honest, she was a little moved. She could see that they really cared about her.

    So Ella followed everyone's wishes and stayed in the room. Anyway, she had already visited the market today, and she had no plans to go out again in a short time. The situation in the palace was complicated, so she didn't care if she didn't go out.

    Taking advantage of Lucis' presence, she hurriedly took the time to inquire about the land.

    "You want to buy land?"

    Lucis was very surprised. This was the first time someone had mentioned this in front of him. Although the private sale was a tacit matter, no one dared to mention it directly in front of Lucis.

    But this is just a small matter for him, the royal family owns too much land, and the land Ella wants is not big, and her wanting to buy the land does not mean that she has the willingness to stay, so LucyI readily agreed.

    "I'll ask the land steward to bring the map later, and you can tell him where you want the land."

    Lucis is actually very busy these days, so he didn't stay here for too long, but before he left, he strengthened the defense around Ella, and the number of soldiers guarding the door was doubled.

    Ella was urged to sleep by the maids, and when she got up, the land steward sent by Lucis had already arrived.

    "Your Highness, please tell me what kind of land you want, and I will help you circle the suitable places for you to choose."

    Before coming here, His Majesty told him that as long as the princess valued it, he could give it to her, so the land steward was very active, as if he would satisfy no matter what she asked for.

    The land steward spread out the map, and Ella found that Boyman was written on the map, which was a map of the land distribution of Boyman.

    This surprised Ella, who thought it would be a map of the Delta.

    "Why not on the Delta side?"

    "Your Highness, after the Inlula River floods, most of the land in the delta will be submerged, and those that are not submerged will be too far away from the water source. It will be troublesome to cultivate, not to mention that the land is not fertile enough. It is not a good choice."

    The delta is the granary of Sathya. In order to ensure that the land here will be fertile enough for cultivation in the coming year, they will allow the Inrula River to flood here every year. Although there are areas that will not be flooded, as he said, there are many shortcomings., so in the view of the land steward, if Ayla wants to use the land now, the delta is naturally inappropriate.

    "Of course, if you like the delta land, you can also choose it at will."

    Ella will be in the Delta during this period. Instead of waiting to return to Boiman and then slowly think about farming and miss this month, it is natural to start preparing from now, so she insists on the land in the Delta..

    Ella has other seeds in her hand besides rice. She intends to take this opportunity to take out those seeds that Sathya does not have but are suitable for planting here.Can grow well, only a few need seeds in water.

    "I want a piece of land that will not be submerged and a piece of land that will not be submerged, but the depth of the water will not exceed three fingers. It is best that the two pieces of land can be connected together, next to a river or a lake, to ensure that the most dry timeThere is also enough water to irrigate the land.”

    The "finger" in the "three fingers" mentioned by Ella is a unit of length commonly used by Sathyas.

    The length units of Sathya from large to small are: Hart, Cubit, Palm, Finger.

    Converted from the smallest finger upwards, 4 fingers are equal to 1 palm, 7 palms are equal to 1 cubit, and 100 cubits are equal to 1 Hart.

    The length that modern people can understand is 1 finger is about 1.86 cm, 1 palm is about 7.44 cm, 1 cubit is about 52 cm, and 1 hart is 52 meters.

    It is said that this was made by a certain king in this land with his own hands. The cubit is the length from his elbow to the tip of his middle finger, and it is also the most commonly used unit for measuring land in Sathya.The specific value of this length unit can be changed. For example, if Lucis wants to, he can replace the data of the last king who did so with the length from his elbow to his fingertip.

    Fortunately, he didn't, otherwise many things would have to be recalculated.

    The three fingers mentioned by Ella are almost 5.58 cm, and the water depth of the paddy field is preferably between 3-5 cm.

    Although the land manager has a good understanding of the general situation of the cultivated land in the two places, he really can't tell for a while that there is even a requirement for water like Ella.

    But of course the land manager wouldn't directly say that he didn't know to appear incompetent.

    He bent down and respectfully said: "Your Highness, the land you mentioned naturally exists, but such land is generally uncultivated wasteland and is not within the range marked on the map. If you want it, I need to send someone to rediscover it.Check the measurement, are you sure you want such land?"

    "Yes, I'm sure." Ella nodded and said, "Then please tell me after you measure it. I need to see it myself."

    The land manager agreed, and after confirming that Ella had no other orders, he saluted and left.

    After he left, Tetis said to Ella: "Your Highness, all the things you bought have been packed, do you want to have a look?"

    Ella didn't like being around people when she was resting, so Tetis took the other maids to the storage room next to her to sort out all the things she bought.

    Ella panicked when she heard this. She hadn't had time to mix the seeds she had with the seeds she bought. If everything was packed, how would she do it?

    She stood up and said, "I'll go and see."

    Although Lucis told Ella to take a good rest recently and not run around, but the storage room is next door, and even the maid will not stop her.

    The room used as a storage room is smaller than the bedroom. The layout of the rooms in the palace and the palace is the same. There will be one or two relatively small rooms next to the bedroom where the king and queen live, for the owner of the bedroom to store things.

    Of course, this is a palace. Apart from the bunch of things she just bought, there are only a few boxes of clothes and supplies she brought from Boiman in Ella's storage room.

    The things I bought from shopping today were put together and neatly organized. Among the five big bags of rice I bought, the one with a hole had long since been replaced by a new one from the grain store, stacked neatlyIn the corner, the remaining sack lay loose on the side, with the seed sack.

    Fortunately for Ella, the seeds in the grain store are packed in small bags and put in big bags, so the maids did not open them one by one, and they spent more energy on sorting out the ones Ella bought for use.The materials for making cosmetics are listed, because those are too many and too complicated.

    She asked one more question worriedly: "Have you seen all these seeds? Are there any bad seeds? Didn't the owner of the grain store shoddy them?"

    Tetis was stunned for a moment before saying, "I'm sorry Your Highness, we haven't had time to take apart these seeds and check them, so I'll check them now."

    Ella felt relieved: "No need, I'll just check this myself, and you guys help me deal with those." Ella pointed to the pile of cosmetic materials she bought.

    The processing of these materials is a bit complicated and requires a lot of tools. Ella told them all, let Tetis take a pen and paper and listen while recording.The materials go to the master craftsman to borrow tools and manpower to deal with them.

    Tetis wanted to keep someone by Ella's side, but Ella immediately said, "Please help me watch carefully, these things are ready to be put on the face, don't let people add some unclean things into it."

    When the maids heard the words, they immediately remembered what had happened in the temple, and their expressions suddenly became serious, expressing that they would keep an eye on the servants so that no one would take advantage of them.

    After sending them all away, Ella immediately opened your sacks of rice to check.

    The rice came all the way from Anya, and it has been stored in the grain store for a long time. In addition, the rice is sold as grain instead of seeds, and has not been properly kept. Some rice has begun to dry up. If it is used for planting, the germination rate will be very high.Low, and their own quality is not very good, even if they can be planted, it will affect the final harvest.

    The rice in Ella's ring is the best variety for the royal family. The grains are large and plump, and because of the characteristics of the ring, it is perfectly preserved, even if the germination rate cannot reach the modern standard of more than 80% due to technical limitations.Standard, but around 70% should be fine.

    She replaced all the rice with her own storage, and didn't even keep the bag of scattered rice, so as not to be seen as the difference between the two kinds of rice.

    Then there is the replacement of the large bag of seeds of various kinds.

    Opening the small bags inside, she bought a lot of seeds and asked the owner of the grain store to pack them in the smallest bags, so basically two bags of each kind of seeds were packed.

    She collected some of the repetitions into the ring, and got away with bagging similar-looking seeds from the ring.

    As for the ones that could not be replaced with similar seeds, they also took them out and put them in a pile with those foreign seeds pretending to be the same foreign species. Anyway, she bought a lot, and the maids and guards were deliberately shunned by her when choosing.They only know that she bought a lot of seeds, but they don't know which ones.

    So from the beginning to the end, probably only the owner of the grain store who personally helped her pack the seeds, weigh them and tie them into pockets knew what she bought, but it was impossible for the owner of the grain store to come to the palace to recognize everything, and when the seeds enteredWhen they are harvested, no one will remember what they looked like when they were bought.

    After doing this, Ella saw that there was still an empty bag, so she simply stuffed the bag of unknown seeds given to her by the animals in the Fairy Forest, maybe it could give her some surprises.

    But even though Ayla thought so, she didn't actually have much expectations. After all, the climates of the Fairy Forest and Sathia where she used to live were completely two extremes. It was a miracle that these seeds could germinate.
