Not only Bailey, but the onlookers were also frightened by the "three-year prison sentence", and they stood nearby and talked about it:

"Lord Anduin's sentence this time is too harsh! It's just for stealing a chicken. It's not a three-year sentence, right?"

"Yes, it was just a chicken, not something valuable."

"I remember that the bards under Lord Anduin were popularizing legal knowledge in the town a few days ago. You can only be sentenced to three years for breaking into a house with a weapon, right? Three years for stealing a chicken is really too harsh!"

...

Not only the onlookers, but also Pete interceded for Bailey:

"Lord Anduin, although Bailey stole my hen, I don't think such a severe punishment should be used. According to the legal knowledge about theft that the bards promoted some time ago, three times the compensation and an apology will be enough.

Already."

Hearing Peter's words, Bailey was also smiling apologetically and nodding wildly.

"No, no." Anduin shook his head: "This is the penalty standard for the crime of theft, but as I just said, Bailey did not steal your chicken."

"Then why..."

Peter and the onlookers began to be confused, not knowing why Andu said this.

Anduin patted Peter on the shoulder sympathetically:

"This hen was not stolen by Bailey, but brought to his home by your wife. And they have been having an affair for several years and you didn't find out?"

Peter: "..."

Anduin looked at Bailey seriously: "According to the territory's laws, the crime of adultery can be sentenced to three years in prison if the evidence is solid, so I did not impose a heavy sentence."

At this time, Bailey was so frightened that he trembled: "How do you know, sir..."

Halfway through his words, Bailey also realized that he was just asking for it.

Seeing that Peter and the people around him had unkind looks in their eyes, Bailey hurriedly ran away.

"Get out! Stop right there!!!"

Pete was furious and rushed towards Bailey.

The two of them chased each other and ran away.

…

After the two ran away, the onlookers realized what they were doing and praised Anduin one after another:

"Lord Anduin is so amazing! He can easily see through the truth of the matter!"

"Poor Pete, no wonder his son's hair is not blond like his parents, but red like Bailey."

"Would you like Sir Anduin to test my wife too? She went to Teacher Tony's to have her hair done yesterday and didn't come back all night..."

...

Seeing that the onlookers were still discussing, Anduin said loudly to them:

"Everyone, please pay attention! Starting from tomorrow, if you have any disputes, you can come to me in the administrative hall and I will help you resolve the dispute. You can spread this matter around!"

"no problem!"

"must!"

The onlookers replied one after another, and then couldn't wait to spread the news.

With Lord Anduin here, they no longer have to worry about the circuit courts deciding cases randomly.

…

After Anduin finished speaking, he did not stay where he was, and left with Sean towards the stone house in the south of the town.

As they walked, Anduin happily said to Sean:

"Sir, the [Thought Stealing] spell is really useful! I will never have to deal with the headache of trying cases again!"

Sean nodded and smiled:

"Not only that, this spell can also detect the loyalty of your subordinates. With this spell, you can also spend more energy on territory construction in the future."

...

While chatting, the three of them came to the stone house where cement was forged last night and found the two stone bricks that were bonded with cement yesterday.

The surface of the cement has solidified, tightly bonding the two stone bricks together. The solidified surface looks a bit uneven, with white frost appearing in some places.

Sean first touched the hardened cement and nodded with satisfaction. Then he picked up the stone bricks and broke them hard. There was no sign of loosening between the two stone bricks.

You must know that although Sean is a mage, after a lot of elemental tempering, Sean's own strength is no less than that of an ordinary black iron warrior. This breaking force is great, but it is still not enough to break two stones.

brick.

So Sean looked at Windsor:

"Wendsor, come and test the strength of the cement."

"Sir, how should I try?" Windsor glanced at the bandage on his right arm in confusion.

"Don't worry, I have a solution!"

Sean and Anduin used magic to fix the stone brick below, and then said to Windsor:

"Wendsor, kick the stone brick above with all your strength."

"no problem!"

Windsor used his fighting energy with all his strength and kicked the stone bricks above.

"Bang!"

With a loud noise, the stone brick above was kicked to pieces by Windsor, and the fragments flew far away, but the bond between the two stone bricks was still intact!

Sean touched the traces left by the cement and said with satisfaction:

"It seems that the effect of cement is very good! Then let's recruit people to bake cement now!"

Anduin is also very satisfied with cement:

"With cement, the construction of the territory can be accelerated a lot, but sir, do you really want Kyle to bake cement every day? I see that she is very reluctant."

"Of course not." Sean smiled: "I was just joking with her yesterday. The amount of cement she burns every three days is enough for us, and the workers can prepare the slurry in the remaining two days."

Anduin heaved a sigh of relief and stood up:

"I know Kyle's character very well, he is quite outgoing. If she is allowed to do this kind of thing every day, she will definitely collapse!"

Sean also stood up and patted the dust on his hands, then led the two of them out of the stone house:

"But one thing to keep in mind is that there is a lot of dust when baking cement. I remember to make her a dust mask..."

...

Sean and the three of them came to the administration hall while talking.

Now that the cement and soap experiments have been completed, Anduin began to organize manpower and formally recruit workers.

Anduin not only organized his subordinates to post recruitment notices everywhere in the town, but also asked them to go door-to-door to promote the recruitment to residents.

The recruitment is divided into six major types of work, namely soap workers, cement workers, brick burners, construction workers, brewers and distillers who make plant essential oils and spirits.

The first type is soap workers, who are responsible for producing soap, and this group of people is the largest.

Anduin arranged eight connected houses on the east side of the city to produce soap, and put [Dwarf Marksman] in charge of them.

Soap production is divided into three major areas, namely raw material area, processing area and drying area.

The first three houses are called the raw material area. The first house is equipped with 2 people to make slaked lime from quicklime; the second house is equipped with 2 people to make slaked lime into sodium hydroxide solution; the third house is equipped with 2 people to make the raw materials into appropriate amounts.

The proportion is sent to the processing area.
