The autumn wind swirls and swirls the withered and yellow leaves on Lake Parr. After the weather gradually turns cold, the tables and chairs placed by the lake are tidied up.
The boat was docked on the shore, and the waterfowl built a nest under the deck at some point. If you look for it, you may be able to pull out an egg.
The roof of the rose garden is all cast in stained glass.
When the sun shines, it looks colorful and beautiful from the outside. Although the roses inside have withered temporarily, some other flowers were placed under Xia Zoe's order, and they are still as beautiful as ever.
Roses bloom only once a year. They like sunshine, are cold and drought tolerant, and need to grow in a ventilated environment with strong adaptability.
But do not like standing water, otherwise it will cause the leaves to fall off, and even lead to the death of the entire plant in severe cases.
There are also many different varieties of roses.
For example, a four-season rose can bloom undefeated, and the flowering period can last until the cold winter.
Before Xia Zoe saw Judit, it was a pity that Rose was defeated between June and July, so she mentioned to him casually.
After that, Judit took this thing in mind - wanting to plant four seasons roses in the coming year, and now starting to find someone to study how to cultivate.
Judit, after visiting the rose garden and checking how each flower was blooming, followed one of the paths into the castle.
He was holding two bouquets of delicately fragrant roses and phoenix orchids in his hands, one was pink and beautiful, the other was white and beautiful.
He walked through the corridors of the castle, climbed the stairs to the door of the largest study on the third floor, and knocked - after hearing a soft voice from inside the room, Judit couldn't help but smile. , then held the handle and gently opened the door—
This study is the most spacious and largest room. In addition to the most basic facilities, such as tables and chairs, fireplaces, and decorations, there are many large and soft cushions specially made by Xia Zoey.
A small wooden fence was erected on the floor a little to the right in the middle of the study, dividing the study into two parts.
The small side places tables and chairs next to the fireplace for office use, while the large side is all soft cushions, crowded together.
It's very comfortable and warm at first glance, and one can't help but want to fall into it immediately.
These cushions are sewn into cute shapes such as cat claws, animals, etc., with ready-made plush as a reference, all of which were made by Xia Zoe.
Brown Sugar likes to hold the black panther cushion in its mouth very much, drag it to the corner and step on it with its claws, then lie down and rest.
Xia Zuoyi sometimes works in the study room. If he is tired, he will lie down on the cat's paw-shaped cushion and hold the Qingtuan-shaped pillow for a while. After the cold weather, he is happy.
When Judit entered, Xia Zoe was lying in the middle of a group of fluffy, holding a book to read.
His legs were covered with a small blanket, which was probably hot. He kicked out one leg, and dangled his bare foot next to the egg yolk. After a while, he put the golden hair of the egg yolk on the soles of his feet.
Judit first placed the two bouquets of flowers he was holding on the window sill where the sun was shining.
After tidying up some scattered paper documents on the table, he turned around and walked into a pile of soft cushions, crossed the huge body of briquettes to Xia Zoey's side, and then gently pulled a small blanket for him.
Immediately afterwards, Judit stood up and began to report today's news in an orderly manner.
"Lord, the first batch of newspapers has been printed, and now they are being shipped to the construction of Weissus and Fort Komoy. They will be sold later..."
Xia Zoe had already sat up.
He closed the book in his hand, turned to pick up the first printed sample newspaper on the low table nearby, shook the slightly wrinkled paper, and read the content on it again.
- The newspaper is folded in half, with writing on the front and back, and is divided into three major sections.
One is about important events in the Territory of Desinia - such as reports of urban construction, official changes, new policies, etc.
The second section is to report some practical knowledge, health preservation, disease prevention...
The third major section is to publish serialized articles, stories, etc.
Xia Zoe not only put the content at the beginning of "Story of the Gods 4" on it, but also put some poems praising the God of Creation provided by the church priests.
Finally, there is an advertisement that circles the key points - those who are interested in writing stories are welcome to come and submit before the newspaper stops, and attach their name, age and home address.
If you are selected for publication in the newspaper, the fee will be calculated according to the number of words. The following are the specific requirements and content of the submission...
Before the report stopped, Renault specially cast an iron submission box according to Xia Zoe's request.
Within three days, the person in charge of the newspaper publication will unlock the manuscript with a key and take away the manuscript. After the manuscript is selected, a person will be sent to notify the contributor and pay the manuscript fee...
In this way, we will not be afraid that there will be no follow-up works after the completion of "Story of the Gods", and we can also urge people's enthusiasm for learning literacy from the side.
The newspaper has just started, and the scope of circulation must not be large.
The information that can be published is also very fixed, limited to the territory of Desinia.
After all, some real-time updated information also requires people to collect and investigate, and places far outside the territory are still out of reach.
Xia Zoe's plan was to wait for the newspaper to improve a little, and then discuss with Orville and Archibald to open newspaper branches in the Achiajoli Domain and Anas Kingdom.
Newspapers are divided into countries and types of published content.
He wasn't sure if this matter should be discussed with His Holiness the Pope.
After all, unlike his alliance with Orville and Archibald, the Saint Air Empire will not let outsiders settle in easily, and there is the Ed Chamber of Commerce in the empire... He just cheated on the other party. Bundle.
If Xia Zoe wanted the Thorns Chamber of Commerce and the newspaper to enter the San Airo Empire, although with the help of the Nagabi Chamber of Commerce, it would definitely be maliciously blocked by the Ed Chamber of Commerce...
When conflicts arise, they will lead to trouble.
But this matter cannot be let go.
The heroine, Samuel Phoebe, is a member of the San Airo Empire, and the plot at the beginning of the novel also happens here, in case the source of the epidemic is also...
Zoe Xia doesn't want to miss any possible information.
He finally decided to send a letter to the Pope first. If there is permission from the Holy See, the resistance of the Thorns Chamber of Commerce to enter the Saint Air Empire will be much less.
Xia Zuoyi thought for a while, put down the template newspaper in his hand, raised his head and asked, "Is there any news from the Alchemy Tower recently?"
Judit shook his head: "No, lord."
Xia Zoe frowned.
Before the outbreak, all he can do to prepare is to find a way to find the source and prevent it in advance.
If it cannot be found, adequate responses must be made, and medical disinfection is indispensable. People's protection in terms of hygiene is an important way to resist the epidemic.
In this way, more attention should be paid to disinfection.
Simple disinfection such as soapy water, salt water, etc., professional points are iodophor, hydrogen peroxide, alcohol, etc.
However, medicines such as medical disinfection are not easily produced, which requires the use of chemical methods and preparations... However, raw materials and production tools are extremely lacking.
The warlocks of the Alchemy Tower have not made progress yet, and Xia Zoe understands.
Although he can exchange detailed production methods and steps from the system library, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and there is no rush to make disinfectant.
Maybe he should think of a way to start with something else...
**
More than a month later.
Newsboys walking around with messenger bags began to appear on the streets.
These newsboys were uniformly dressed in dark green jumpsuits, with a small hat on their heads and red scarves tied around their necks. They were walking down the street with packages full of newspapers on their backs.
— "Sell the newspaper, sell the newspaper! Today, the fifth chapter of "Story of the Gods 4" is published, watch it first!"
Some passers-by will wave to the newsboy when they hear this, hand them a copper coin, and then take away a newspaper handed over by the newsboy.
Newsboys left with a grin, and after passing soldiers patrolling the streets, they would stop seriously to perform nondescript etiquette.
Dyna bought a newspaper and turned to the place where the third section was published to read the fifth chapter of "Story of the Gods 4"...
He finished it in no time, and gave it to Mike next to him with a sigh.
"Since there were newspapers, this story has been published in a chapter every seven days... tsk, that's not enough to read."
While talking, Dyna took out a piece of lemon candy from the small pocket around his waist and put it in his mouth, puffing out one side of his cheek and saying, "Mike, didn't you buy a newspaper today? This is my share. Here it is, I don't like to read the other information above anyway."
Mike took it and looked back: "Besides the story of the gods, isn't there a new story published? Don't you read it?"
Dina shook his head with little interest: "The love story between the noble lady and the noble young master who pretends to be poor is boring."
Mike thought it was quite interesting. I heard that this story was really written by a noble young master. In order to study how the poor lived, he went to experience it himself.
It seems that it is also because of the intention and authenticity of the writing that the lord published this manuscript in the latest issue of the newspaper after selecting it, which is quite popular.
He and Dyna were in charge of patrolling this month's Wessas. In front of them were two other newsboys who ran over in a hurry. Mike called them to come and bought another newspaper.
Most of these newsboys are orphans and live in orphanages. When the news agency announces the need to recruit newspaper sellers, they come spontaneously.
The Lord Lord specially issued an order - the soldiers patrolling the city should always pay attention to protecting the safety of the children.
Dyna asks Mike why he still buys newspapers with sugar in his mouth
Mike: "Isn't Tyler stationed in Cerro recently?"
"There are no newspapers for sale there. He asked me to help him buy all the newspapers that he couldn't read during this time, and then come back and read them when he has collected them all."
Cerro was a city in the former kingdom of Gaena.
Now the entire Kingdom of Gaina has become the territory of Desinia, and soldiers are often mobilized.
"The newspaper you gave me, I also need to take it home."
Mike's father had already become a loyal reader of the newspaper, and could not wait to read it in his hand every day.
Thinking of this, Mike began to sigh again.
—The family were originally slaves, however, everything changed since the conscription of Wessas.
He is now a company commander, and his father has gone from not knowing a word to being able to read two or three lines of content smoothly...
- Praise the God of Creation, and thank the Lord!
Mike couldn't help but recite the prayer for the lord in his heart.
He hopes that the Lord will grow up in a safe and healthy way every day. He heard that newspapers have recently been opened in the Akiyayoli territory and the Anas kingdom. Learn new things about the other two territories.
Mike folded the newspaper threefold and put it in his arms, looking forward to it.
