Durin's Diary

Chapter 409: A Last-Minute Cram
Du Lin met his grandfather on the first floor of the Everburning Nest. The two grandchildren, smiling like foxes that had stolen chicks, hugged each other with smiles.

Du Lin asked the two old men to sit down, made tea for them personally, and then sat aside.

"No one comes to trouble me this time." Du Lin looked at the old man from the Engineering College.

The latter shook his head. "Regarding you, there's been a lot of arguments lately. The family you wiped out has been working for the Circle for two generations. Many people say you're too tyrannical."

Du Lin put away his smile. "Luis Pozzo's family has done some really bad things. One of their peasants reported them, accusing them of robbery. He's the head of the Northern Party in Venice. I was worried they might be involved, so I sent two of my children to see if they were really bad people. But the eldest son of the family skinned them and sent the skin back to me."

At this point, General Du Lin sneered, "Two fourteen-year-old children died just like that. If I don't do this thoroughly, how will people in this world view my Three Saints Society? Is this just children playing house? Of course not. We must root out the evil and eradicate it completely."

"Just kill them all, don't speak long Tang language... Wait a minute, how did you learn to speak long Tang language?" The old man from the Engineering College was stunned, then asked impatiently.

"I've seen the Changtang people in Lublin before, and later I saw their writing in Copenhagen. You know what, their idioms are quite useful."

"You learn quite quickly. You're worthy of having a grandma named Chang Tang. You're really smart. You're not like your grandpa, but more like your grandma." The old dean said this and looked at He Yixu with a teasing look: "Little brother, what do you think?"

Old Yi Xu smiled happily: "She's good, with a smooth figure and a handsome face. So many girls like her. By the way, have you decided who will get the first child?"

"Why rush?" Du Lin said calmly, "Don't worry, it will come when the time comes."

"I'm so anxious. Your realm is rising so fast. Let me tell you, the higher the realm of a couple, the greater the gap between them, and the smaller the chance of having a child, especially for women. You'd better wait a while, whether it's for the Ai Ersh family or for the Three Saints Society. Don't rush to the front alone for everything. Your realm is rising too high. Are you going to force your girls to death?" Yi Xu stared at Du Lin and sighed.

This statement made sense, and even Uryula, who was listening nearby, agreed.

Du Lin didn't want to argue about anything.

"Okay, speaking of which, you have to arrange a room for us two old guys. We plan to take a break from our work here for a month, but don't forget to return to the workshop at the beginning of the month in a couple of days."

"I know this. I've heard that it's not just witchers who come to me to order weapons." Last month, Durin made a lot of unique equipment for the witchers. These witchers fought fiercely for a month, but even the weakest ones survived. The worst-off, Rick Leahy, only had half of his ribs broken by the axe of the green orc - the chain mail was not chopped to pieces, and the fracture was caused by crushing bruises.

It is said that the middle-aged man was determined to die and was ready to die together with the green-skinned orc in order to protect his beloved girl.

Who would have thought that he actually survived? In this era, which girl could withstand such a proposal ceremony and choose to marry him without hesitation?

What's wrong with him being old? She is willing to be so sincere.

So this time when Du Lin returned to the workshop, he had to make another set of chain mail for this girl - in order to let his son-in-law live longer, the girl's father spent a lot of money and used his connections to find Du Lin.

After hearing about Rick Leahy's achievements in the past few months, Du Lin was of course happy to make him a better set of equipment.

What this era lacks most is contrast.

The quality of Durin's products is guaranteed, and they are even better at saving lives. So next month, not only demon hunters, but also nobles from all over the country will come to him.

Of course, these nobles were relatively enlightened. After they converted serfs into free people and established estates, the most urgent hatred between them and Northernism no longer existed. As for Dühring, as long as they lived like human beings, Dühring would not go crazy.

"By the way, why do you make so much money?" His grandfather asked Du Lin as he left with Mrs. Lin. Du Lin pointed to the children he had just brought home. As children Du Lin had bought, these little ones looked pale and thin, but they had been eating well in recent days, so they still had the energy to express their curiosity.

"I knew that your grandson is a kind child. Those little guys are just looking for trouble." The dean smiled and patted Yi Xu's shoulder.

Du Lin watched the two old men get on the elevator.

Then he turned around and stroked the heads of the children one by one.

A poet once said it well: The immortal stroked my head, tied my hair and granted me immortality.

I didn't buy them just to show my kindness.

I need a bottom-up change that requires sacrifice, heroes, and allies.

Such a future may be very cruel for these children, but if Du Lin had not taken action this time, such a fate might seem too luxurious for these children.

Because they are more likely to starve to death this year.

But now they have a future. Many of their families followed them to the Great Wilderness and joined Dulin's newly developed large farm. They have their own long-term fields to cultivate. Such long-term fields are recognized and protected by the Twin Mother Goddesses. Dulin will take the initiative to sign a contract with them, and Dulin is even willing to waive his share of the rent for the first five years.

During the pioneering period, you can also get free supplies and tools made of fine iron - the young generation of blacksmith apprentices of the Three Saints Society are showing their skills. Although they cannot make magical weapons, at least there is no problem in making farm tools.

Du Lin also goes to guide them every month, it just depends on who is luckier.

Now Durin's farm has become a new destination for many serfs living near Durin - because of the short distance, no pursuers dare to enter the wilderness, and when they arrive, professionals will create new identities for them (all of them are professional counterfeiters of the Three Saints Society), and then they will also get new land.

This is a good thing that the ancestors of those serfs would never have dared to imagine.

The nearby nobles also knew about it, but they didn't dare to come and ask Du Lin.

Because apart from this time, Du Lin has always had a standard notorious reputation as the new leader of the Three Saints Society. Just saying his name can stop many children from crying at night.

What's more, something big has happened now.

There is a saying that goes well.

When people know they are wrong, most of them still don’t know where they are wrong.

They just knew that they were going to die.

This time I said I was wrong, it was probably just a last-minute attempt to save myself.

　Today, the temperature in Zhejiang Province has reached 42 degrees Celsius, and in Yuhang, it has reached 70 degrees Celsius. I feel like I'm melting...
