King’s Kingdom - Chapter 279
Hearing this, Kritidosi’s expression was very surprised. She didn’t care about her height very much. The worry that ordinary women didn’t want to be too tall and strong didn’t exist on her at all.
In fact, she hopes that she can become taller and stronger. Although she doesn’t care about beauty at all, what Critidos wants more is strong fighting power.
What’s more, now that my husband is in his early 20’2, he is only 1.86 meters tall, which is really not balanced in proportion. If he can grow taller, it can just make up for the gap.
In addition, aesthetics are relative terms. To ordinary people, being tall is ugly, but to Theodosius, even if she grows to two meters, she is not very tall. Beauty is for herself. Do you want to see your spouse, as long as you are not ugly in the eyes of your husband.
“You mean that my child was born larger than ordinary children?” asked Theodosius.
“Yes, Your Majesty, every ritual will make the child grow up, but it will not advance its growth cycle. Her Majesty’s growth is the effect of the potion. Half of the medicinal power in this dragon’s blood acts on Her Majesty the Queen. on the body!”
“Because only a strong mother can give birth to a strong baby. What’s more, if you only strengthen the baby but don’t care about the mother, it is easy to cause dystocia and lead to one corpse and two lives. This is the life of many queens thousands of years ago. Discover the experience!”
“Oh my God…” Critidos was about to become a mother, and she couldn’t help empathizing with the queens who died after taking the blood of the early dragons.
“But don’t worry now! The dose of Dragon’s Blood has been doubled compared to before, and the extra is completely used on the mother’s body, so please don’t worry, you will not be in any danger!”
“That’s right, you are in such good health, there is no danger!” Theodosius also grabbed Kritidos’s hand and comforted him.
After the ceremony, Critidos started daily exercise. She is very physically fit and has not become vulnerable due to pregnancy. Some simple exercises are still fine.
Theodosius asked her maid to accompany him. As for him, he went to the study on a routine basis. Some of the more important official affairs required his personal instructions. Other official affairs handled by the ministers themselves were also written in written form and sent to Di Preview in front of Odosi.
Everything went relatively smoothly. The laborers belonging to the Lanyin royal family were transporting food to Changjian Fort together with mules and horses.
Recently, the output of steel has also increased a lot. Because of the second anti-criminal eradication, the royal family has added a lot of life-long labor. After they are familiar with the work, their efficiency has increased significantly, so the output of steel has increased substantially this month. Twenty percent.
In addition, the blacksmiths have completed the delivery of the armors of the newly-made Rine Knights and the Iron Paladins, and the dwarves have also sent reports that the first batch of 100 sets of adamantine armors will be delivered soon, and it will not affect one and a half months. The thousand sets of Mithril armor that followed were the result of the entire dwarves working day and night, and it was difficult to maintain them for a long time.
Theodosius is very happy about this. He does not intend to squeeze the dwarves to death. After all, he still advocates a long flow of water. Let the dwarves have more children and reduce the loss of casualties. There will be more and more Mithril battles. A birth.
But he was very happy to have these hundred sets of adamantine armor, and at the same time he recovered, no need to continue to work too hard, and rewarded every dwarf with a barrel of ale.
This kind of reward is still very effective. Dwarves like to drink, but when they were in Gondolin Mountain, resources were scarce, and it was not easy for ordinary dwarves to drink.
However, in the Kingdom of Rhine, where there is sufficient food, there is no problem in brewing some of the food into wine. If the difference between the cost and price of this ale is not too big, Theodosius is more inclined to use wine to make money. .
After being rewarded by Theodosius, the dwarves became more motivated and worked very diligently every day, but there was no change in output for the time being. increase, so the status quo can only be maintained.
The knights from all over the country who joined the Knights of Rain through the selection were all moved to tears after they got their own double-layer full-body armor.
Especially the Ortban people from other regions, although their hometowns are rich and poor, and there are differences in steel prices and labor costs, but without exception, this armor is not cheap.
Even in a place where steel and labor are the cheapest, if you want to save a set of full-body armor, you need to save a village as a fief for three or four years. What a young man these three or four years are. long.
Especially in poor and underdeveloped areas, it is even more difficult to save a set of full-body armor. Many people spend half their lives saving money to buy armor after trying their best to get the fief.
When they really collect a set of full-body armor, they are too old to go to the battlefield, so they can only pass it on to the next generation, and let them go to the battlefield to complete their unfinished business.
Of course, this is only a few cases and it is only aimed at the low-level nobles. The big nobles don’t have to worry about this. In the early years, a large number of high-quality armors of the Hilkati Empire in various armament warehouses fell into the hands of these big nobles. inside.
Among them, the Central Empire got the most weapons and armor, and their warriors basically had no shortage of armor to wear. Of course, this was limited to the standing army directly under the royal family~www.mtlnovel.com~ and the elite standing of the lords in various places.
Such a precious armor was handed out to him so casually, how could these Ortban people from all over the world not be moved, how could they not be shocked.
You know, these armors are double-layered! That set of whole family has to be saved for five or six years, and even seven or eight years in poor areas. Isn’t this double-layer armor equivalent to more than ten years of accumulation?
Some people even thought about whether they should go home with the armor secretly, keep one set for themselves, sell the other set, and then save more to buy a small fief to live in peace?
But this kind of idea is a minority after all, and no one took action in the end, because compared with the stability and immutability of their hometown, these passionate young people hope to become a wealthy landowner in this land through their own efforts. .
Here, the amount of land can be increased by merit and reward, but it is extremely difficult to get more land when you return to your hometown, and it is unrealistic to obtain more land through small-scale land reclamation. The cost and benefit are fundamental. not proportional.
What’s more, these knights are descendants of the Holy King Ender, descendants of the Orteban family, and no one wants to do such a depraved act.
