Chapter 118： Mining

"Little guy! Let's go! Let's go back!" After the contract of recognizing the master was completed, Narant returned to the castle happily holding the golden yellow elf!

……

The next morning, in the maid's bedroom on the first floor of the castle.

"Huh?" Catherine woke up leisurely, but the discomfort from her whole body made her snort unconsciously.

"Yeah! Big sister, you're finally awake!" At this moment, an exclamation came from Catherine's ear. It was Shirley who was arranged to take care of Catherine here.

Hearing this call, Catherine finally woke up and saw the appearance of the girl in front of her. Catherine remembered her situation.

She sat up abruptly, originally wanted to get out of bed, but unfortunately she only stood up a little, her whole body was sore and weak, and finally she fell to the edge of the bed.

"Big sister, don't move! The lord said that you were poisoned the night before! Although the lord has already helped you to breathe (the divine beast) to heal your wounds, it must not have recovered so quickly!" Shirley immediately stepped forward to stop Catherine's actions.

"Xi poison for healing?" Catherine froze and looked at her body subconsciously.

When she saw her dress clearly, she was even more shocked, and saw that she was wearing a castle maid dress.

"Big sister, don't worry, your clothes were changed by sister Vivian and I. When the adults helped you heal the poison, you just ripped off your sleeves!" Xue Li thought she understood Catherine's thoughts, and immediately explained.

But after Catherine heard this, her expression still didn't change.

After Shirley mentioned this, she already remembered what happened that night before she completely lost consciousness.

She remembered that after she fell to the ground powerless, the young lord immediately stepped forward and hugged her.

Originally, this was nothing, but after a while, Catherine, who was in a daze, felt a burst of warmth on her arm, and then she felt constantly being sucked.

With a lot of shame and anger, she fainted completely.

"Is he detoxifying?"

Katherine asked herself.

But she couldn't find the answer. She had never heard that mouth can detoxify.

But now it seems that he is not dead, and there is no reason to complain about this young lord.

"Big sister, are you hungry? If so, I'll go to the kitchen to find my mother to get some food for you?" Seeing Catherine's startled appearance, Shirley immediately asked with concern.

"Thank you, Shirley, I'm not very hungry now, I want to ask where your lord is!" Catherine, who became a prisoner, had no intention of eating at this time.

She didn't know what would happen to her next, and her plan to rescue Raymond and others seemed to have failed.

"Hey, great sister, how do you know my name?" Xue Li said in surprise, "Sir, he took Sister Vivian out of the castle, the lord got a yellow elf last night, and today he brought the elf to it. Looking for habitat!"

"I heard you and Vivian call each other that night, so I know your names! Shirley, my name is Catherine!"

"Sister Catherine, will you stay in the castle with us in the future!" Shirley blinked and asked Catherine expectantly.

"I don't know!" Catherine was stopped by Shirley, and she didn't know how to choose.

Moreover, even if he wants to leave now, is the young lord willing to let him go?

I'm afraid it would be kind of me not to kill myself!

……

When Shirley was talking to Catherine, Narrant was only a little over a mile away from the castle.

"Hey! The little guy has a reaction!" Riding on the back of Lightning, Narant suddenly showed a happy expression, and the yellow elf seemed to have found a satisfactory habitat.

Narant is very much looking forward to the mine he is about to acquire.

If it's a gold mine and a silver mine, it's really cool!

"Go! Little guy! Work harder!"

Full of expectations, Narant gently threw the little guy to the ground.

"Migu Migu!"

After the little guy landed, he shouted happily twice, and then slid away toward the wasteland beside the dirt road.

After almost a mile in, the little guy finally stopped.

After the stop, the yellow light on the little guy began to slowly converge. When the light converged to the point where the naked eye couldn't see it directly, with a buzzing sound, the light formed ripples and rippled toward the surroundings.

This process lasted for more than half a minute. After half a minute, everything returned to normal, and the yellow elves began to sway around leisurely.

"It's done!" Narant was overjoyed.

However, nothing was seen on the ground at this time.

"Vivian, let the guards start digging!"

Under normal circumstances, even if the mines produced by the yellow elf are not bare mines, they are not buried deeply, so just by digging the soil layer, you can determine what mines have been obtained.

"Yes, my lord!"

The guards had already brought hoes and started digging in the wasteland under the command of Vivian.

Narant, on the other hand, stepped aside and waited under the shade of a tree.

Time passed by minute by minute.

"My lord, it looks like I've dug it up!"

More than ten minutes later, a voice came from Vivian.

"What kind of mine?"

Narant got up and quickly ran over.

"Sir... we don't know each other!" Vivian shook her head a little lacking in confidence.

Seeing this, Narant became anxious. It's not a common mine, which is a bit unfortunate.

"This is..." When Narant came to the edge of the pit and looked down, he also frowned slightly.

There was no ore in the pit that was about two meters deep, but a layer of gray-white soil.

After thinking for a while, Narant finally found the relevant memory in his mind.

"Is this clay?"

In order to verify the accuracy Narant jumped into the pit and grabbed a handful of gray-white dirt with his hands.

"Delicate and firm, this is really clay!"

"Sir! Is this mine good?" Vivian asked cautiously when she heard the words.

Generally speaking, the nobles’ favorite mines are metal mines, because no matter which one they are, it represents wealth.

But now that she heard that it turned out to be dirt, Vivian felt a little worried for her lord.

"How do you say it! If it is before processing, then it is no different from other ordinary soils!" Although it is not too disappointing, it is still far from the copper and iron ore that Narant expected.

"Ah, isn't that worthless!" Vivian couldn't help feeling a little sad.

"It's not like that. You have seen the clay pots and bowls we usually use, and they are made of this clay!"

"Ah! It turns out that clay pots and bowls are made of this clay? Your lord, so this clay is actually valuable!" Vivian's frustration immediately diminished.

"Yes, in fact, it is also very valuable, at least it should be more valuable than imagined!" Narant smiled.

Of course, he didn't plan to make pots and bowls for sale. Ceramics are not very valuable in this world.

Because the pottery-making technology in this world is very backward, both the craftsmanship and the glaze water on the outside of the ceramics are at the original level.

Therefore, nobles prefer to use gold and silver utensils.

Of course, if you can create works of art like Jingdezhen blue and white porcelain, Longquan celadon or Ru kiln in the past, I believe you can still make a lot of money.

Just wanting to let Narant develop pottery to this level in a short period of time is no less than letting him make a rifle with his bare hands.

So, his real idea is to burn bricks.
