Sean heard what Dalia said outside the door, but he didn't pay attention to it. Instead, he lay on the soft big bed and thought about other things.
After all, Dalia is a druid, and only has a bronze mid-level, so she may not be satisfactory in terms of protection and counter-espionage.
But now that the territory is short of manpower, we can only arrange it this way.
No matter what, you still have to practice hard! When you reach level 23, you will have two more follower summoning slots!
Thinking of this, Sean sat up from the bed excitedly, put on various accessories and started today's practice.
...
...
May 9th, sunny.
10 o'clock in the morning.
Under the auspices of Anduin, the first "Hetan Town Women's Games" officially opened in the square in the north of the town!
Gender discrimination in this world is not that serious, or in other words, gender discrimination is not that serious. After all, women can also become sky-level or even powerful men in the holy realm through cultivation, and even if it is discrimination, they dare not talk about it.
Therefore, the "Women's Games" organized by Anduin did not encounter any resistance, and received unanimous approval and free help from the townspeople.
Precisely because this is the first time, there are only four events, namely long-distance running, sprinting, swimming, and archery.
The rules are also very simple. You can only use physical strength, not fighting spirit or magic.
Anduin has set a bonus for each event, with 4 gold coins for the champion, 3 gold coins for the runner-up, and 2 gold coins for the third place.
You know, the average income of residents in Hetan Town is only 2 gold coins/month.
The average income of women is lower. Since they rarely participate in heavy physical labor, they only have about 1 gold coin per month.
This bonus greatly stimulated their enthusiasm to participate, and Anduin did not set a threshold, anyone who wanted to can participate.
So in addition to the 16 girls who were greedy for Anduin's body, many other girls also joined, including some very old middle-aged women.
Although they may not be able to compete with young and strong girls in long and short sprints, middle-aged women are more experienced in archery and swimming. This is indeed the case, they won the championship in these two events.
The large number of women participating will naturally attract male compatriots to come and watch.
Moreover, Hetan Town lacked entertainment items, so this sports meeting quickly turned into a carnival for the whole people.
Hetan Town has become a sea of ​​joy.
...
...
But all this has nothing to do with Sean. At this time, he, Windsor and Ewen were working in the mill to improve the soap formula.
There are two raw materials for soap. The first is potassium hydroxide solution obtained by filtering plant ash, and the other is lard.
Sean tried to use different materials to replace these two raw materials, such as sodium hydroxide made by the reaction of hydrated lime (quick lime soaked in water) and soda ash (alkali surface for fermentation) instead of potassium hydroxide, and vegetable oil instead of lard.
After Sean used the four ingredients to arrange and combine them, something surprising happened to him!
The soap made using sodium hydroxide solution and vegetable oil works better than Sean imagined, and is almost exactly the same as the handmade soap he used in his previous life!
Not only is it extremely powerful at removing stains, but it also smells much better than lard soap!
In the future, he will add fragrant plant essential oils to produce soap, and his luxury store can finally add new products!
.....
At this point, Sean also knew that soap could be mass-produced.
But Sean did not intend to hand over the soap formula to the workshop in Yohn City, because the manufacturing process of perfume and spirits should have been thoroughly scrutinized by the major forces in Yohn City.
If the soap was made there, it would inevitably be plagiarized.
So Sean decided to build a workshop in Hetan Town to produce soap and then transport it to Yohn City.
After making this decision, Sean rewarded Eon with 20 gold coins, and then took Windsor to the north of the town to find Anduin.
.....
.....
Sean stayed in the mill for a whole day, and it was already 5 pm when he found Anduin.
At this time Anduin was hosting the final event.
But what surprised Sean was that when he arrived at Zhenbei Square and took a quick look, several people on the track were actually men?!
So Sean asked with a straight face:
"Anduin, what's going on? Didn't you say there would be a women's competition?"
"That's right, my lord."
Anduin explained sheepishly:
"All the women's games ended in the morning, and the townspeople felt that they were still unsatisfied and called for a men's game.
They asked me to join the Dark Gold Cult... I was wrong, they asked me to hold a men’s competition, so I held it.”
Sean continued to ask with a straight face:
"Then after these men win the championship, will they also be rewarded with spending two days in your office?"
Anduin: "..."
Seeing that Anduin had nothing to say, Sean finally couldn't hold it in any longer and smiled:
"It doesn't matter. As long as the townspeople are happy, just give birth to a few more cubs...wrong, just give birth to a few more babies! I'm not short of the money."
Sean looked towards the field and saw that many men were shouting loudly, and many women were also cheering on both sides of the track. He said happily:
"It's really good to hold a sports meeting. Men are excited to see it, and women are passionate about it. Well, it's good."
Sean turned to look at Anduin:
"Anduin, let's go to the mill. I have something important to tell you."
"Okay, sir!" Anduin left the podium and followed Sean towards the mill.
...
Walking on the way to the mill, Anduin asked: "Sir, I have hired someone to renovate the church directly opposite the administrative hall. Should we give it a name?"
"What was the previous name of this church? Can't we keep the previous name?" Sean asked.
"Sir, it used to be called Lake Church. It's best not to use it." Anduin explained.
"So that's it." Sean nodded:
"Since we already have Constantinople, let's call the church Hagia Sophia! After all, they are all part of Rome... Alas, the wonders are ruining the country!"
After hearing Sean's words, Windsor, who was walking behind, suddenly had a question mark on his face:
"Sir, didn't we just renovate the church? Why did we ruin the country? Also, why did you name it after Sophia? Do you want to marry her?"
Sean: "..."
...
The three of them walked into the mill while chatting.
"Anduin, after a day of experiments, we have made the best soap, and we can finally mass-produce it!"
Sean handed Anduin the off-white handmade soap that had not completely solidified.
Anduin smelled the smell of soap and rubbed it in the bucket next to him. Soon, the sweat stains on his hands were completely washed away.
Feeling the powerful effect of soap, Anduin said happily:
"The effect of this soap is very good! The smell is also acceptable. I think it can be mass-produced and put on the market!"
"So Anduin, tomorrow you find a few empty houses in the town that no one lives in, and then recruit workers to start construction!"
"Yes, sir!" Anduin replied immediately.
Chapter completed!
