Chapter 872

Mr. Peter knew a lot about farming



“Healthy horses can carry things, and there is plenty of work to do. But if they are old or injured...”

“And so Mr. Peter suggested they attach some special tools to them so they could plough the fields. Well, that is what I heard.”

“If they work, they will live longer. And the bigger the fields, the more produce, and people will be able to afford to take care of them. Of course, it was being done in other villages. So it is not as if I got the idea on my own.”

“Still, you helped many horses, Mr. Peter. I am sure they are all very thankful to you!”

“I don’t know if horses would feel that... Well, you are a beastkin, Delia. So perhaps you can talk to them.”

“Yes, Ms. Delia knows a lot about horses.”

Liza was like that as well. So she probably understood the emotions of horses more than humans.

“Aside from that, Mr. Peter also made other suggestions regarding the soil, and ways to help the crops grow better. And everyone is indebted to him!”

“I merely suggested that they let the soil rest, and also mix soil and dead leaves from the forest. That was also knowledge I got from other villages...”

Mr. Peter looked embarrassed as Ms. Delia continued to praise him. He was a humble person.

In any case, we then left him there and returned to the village...

“Here, here. Eat more!”

“Eat as much as you can. Or you won’t grow.”

“It’s nice to drink during the day!”

“The grandmothers are usually strict about it, but we can drink without worry now, because there are guests.”

“Really, you are always looking for opportunities to drink... Mr. Takumi, I hope you do not come like these old geezers?”

“Ahaha... Thank you. I am eating a lot. But I don’t know if I can eat more...”

When we returned to the village, the grandmothers brought out some food they had prepared, and we had a lunch party in the plaza.

Some of the old men brought drinks, but as it was the same serpent wine, I politely declined.

Though, they tried to make me eat more instead, and I was already quite full... Besides, I was at the age where I would only grow horizontally...
