Chapter 396 Trouble at the Lumber Mill

As soon as the Puppet Master arrived at the villa, he took Roger up and down the stairs and ran around, introducing his amazing gadgets as he went. 【】Listening to the strong sense of pride in Addison's words, Roger knew that he must be deeply proud of everything in this villa.

In fact, this is also expected.Master Addison has studied puppetry all his life, and is not interested in power, money, or beauties other than that.Now Roger has given Master Addison so many ideas at once, most of which he had never thought of before, which is enough to make Master Puppet addicted to it.What's more, these devices can greatly improve the conditions of the residents, and Addison is fascinated by them.

And these ideas were all given by Roger to Master Addison. In his eyes, Roger is naturally the person who can best understand the value of his own inventions.That's why Master Addison, who has always cherished time like gold, took the time to come to the villa and explain his invention to Roger in person.

Roger's reaction did not disappoint Master Addison, who showed an extraordinary interest in these new inventions.After all, he had enjoyed the enjoyment brought by high technology before, and he was of course very satisfied with these puppet devices that were not lethal at all and seemed to have no value.Especially when it comes to the "hot and cold air conditioner" that combines the three magic circles of ice and wind and is powered by magic crystals, it is even more praised, and it is not stingy to praise the puppet master. Flying over, directly knocked Master Addison unconscious.The puppet master deeply felt that this young lord was really his bosom friend, and the decision to follow him to Kent town was too wise.

The villa on the island will be ready to live in in a few days. Roger imagines the happy life of playing with some beauties on the beach and sleeping together at night. He only hopes that day will come as soon as possible.But before enjoying life, there are still many troubles to be solved, and the lumberyard on the edge of the Green Sea Forest is the biggest trouble.

After greatly praising Master Addison as his only confidant in this life, Roger left the villa and went to the lumberyard.Although the lumberyard is a bit far away, there are quite a few griffins in the castle's taming grounds.With these mounts that can fly in the air, it is very convenient to rush around within the territory.

When Roger arrived at the lumberyard, he realized that there had been a huge change from when it was just built.The formerly tall and lush forest had retreated a great distance, leaving a clearing of huge stumps and sparse grass.In some places, the roads for transporting and felling trees have exposed bare and difficult soil.

At the end of these dirt roads, a large camp was surrounded by wooden fences, and a huge sawmill was built in the center of the camp, responsible for sawing the felled trees into uniform logs.

There are two rows of wooden houses at one end of the camp. This is where the workers live and eat. From the size of the houses, there are quite a few workers working here.The open space of the camp was full of freshly felled trees and logs that had been processed, especially the logs that had been processed, which were piled up as high as a hill.

Seeing so much wood, Roger was also secretly happy.After returning to Kent town yesterday, he has already obtained enough other materials, and now he only needs to add these logs to build a new castle and a farming farm.Seeing no one around, Roger directly threw a lot of wood into the secondary space of the castle, so that the castle hub immediately began to build a rotation farm.

With the increasing population of the territory, the food produced by the farms has gradually been unable to keep up with the consumption, and the problem has to be solved by merchants buying from various places.Experience tells Roger that food is the lifeblood of the territory, so he must build a rotation farm as soon as possible to solve the problem of insufficient food.

However, the disappearance of a large amount of wood still attracted the attention of two guards. They rushed to check and found that the lord had arrived, and saluted Roger.

Roger smiled and gestured to the two, saying that he took the wood by himself, and told them not to worry.Everyone has heard about all the miraculous things about the lord, and the security guards also breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried back to report to the person in charge of the camp.

Hunter Mike is currently in charge of the lumberyard.He is also an old man who has followed Roger since the Lund Peninsula. After coming to Kent Town, he reorganized the family with the tailor Linda, and his life is much better than when he was in the Lund Peninsula.

Hearing that Roger had arrived at the lumberyard, Mike hurried over and saluted Roger as soon as he saw him: "My lord, welcome!"

"Don't be restrained, we are also old friends." After Mike finished his salute, Roger immediately stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said, "I heard that the lumberyard is in trouble recently, so I came here specially!"

"Those elves often come to make trouble." Speaking of this, Mike couldn't help complaining with a headache: "A few days ago, two security guards were injured, and the workers were too scared by them to work!"

"Is the situation so serious?" Knowing that Mike is definitely not a person who will exaggerate, Roger frowned and said: "It looks like it's time to talk to those elves!"

"Are you going to negotiate with them?" Mike said in surprise, "Those elves don't talk to us at all, so there's no way to negotiate!"

Roger was very sure about this, and smiled slightly at Mike: "Don't worry, I have a solution."

In fact, Roger's solution is very simple, if you don't want to talk, call!Play until the elves are willing to talk.If there is no agreement, fight until the elves give in.This world is a world where strength speaks, and everything else is just floating clouds.

Roger didn't stay in the logging camp for long, and soon entered the Green Sea Forest.After walking into the Green Sea Forest, he realized how much the logging camp had changed the Green Sea Forest.There are big trees that have been cut down everywhere, and the thick trunks are lying on the ground in all directions, which is really a bit bleak.In order to transport the logs out smoothly, the workers didn't even spare some useless small trees, and they all fell to the ground.

After most of the trees were cut down, the animals that used to live in them naturally disappeared, and all migrated to deeper places in the forest.The formerly vibrant forest has now become lifeless, which makes Roger, who has lived on the earth for a long time and understands the concept of environmental protection, feel heavy.

"It's really necessary to change the working method of the logging camp." Roger thought to himself while walking, "Otherwise, the forest will be destroyed sooner or later."

Just when Roger was thinking about putting environmental protection on the agenda, a light sound of bowstring came from the tree on the left, and a sharp arrow shot straight at Roger.
