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 so 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 rely 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.
But even if it was done in other villages, being the one to suggest it here first, and succeeding was quite an achievent.
“Obviously, the first person to think of it is impressive… But putting it into action here is also very comndable.”
“Oh, now the visitor is siding with Delia…”
“His na is Takumi.”
“Oh, Takumi. Yes.”
After that, we spent so ti there, talking to Mr. Peter.
As he was old now, he was not as involved with the field work, but he still liked to sit here and watch.
Aside from the soil of the fields, he also knew a lot about different growing thods, and was like a farming expert.
If he wanted to, perhaps it might be a good idea to invite him to Range village… They would not have many people there who were as knowledgeable about farming. I could hire soone, but they may not know as much as Mr. Peter.
In any case, I would think about whether I should ask him or not.
Besides, I would have to tell him about myself and the duke before any of that.
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 co 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 so food they had prepared, and we had a lunch party in the plaza.
So of the old n brought drinks, but as it was the sa serpent wine, I politely declined.
Though, they tried to make eat more instead, and I was already quite full… Besides, I was at the age where I would only grow horizontally…
