Here is your chapter.
What appeared in front of Lucas was paper, another product ahead of the current era. It was also an important item that he needed to make major changes.
Lucas picked up the paper in front of him and found that it was a bit yellowish. After pulling it a few times, he found that the toughness was acceptable.
A plant unique to the other world could be used as a tough fiber, which allowed the paper created to become tough. Lucas had been happy for a long time when he first heard about the unique plant.
“Very good." Lucas said, satisfied. “You did a really good job. Continue to improve these papers. As long as the paper gets whiter and tougher. I will give rewards to you.”
“Yes!” the people shouted excitedly. They have things to eat and drink in this place, and the work wasn’t hard. They wouldn’t be able to find such good work anywhere.
Lucas left with the stack of papers. He could prepare to begin some of his plans.
When he returned to the castle with Mina, it was already noon, and it was time for lunch. Before he ate lunch, he told a servant to get Max.
Max came while Lucas was waiting for lunch, and Lucas invited Max to eat lunch with him.
Today’s lunch was steak. Max looked at the extremely exquisite ceramic plate in front of him. On the plate was a steak that was the size of 2 fists. It had aromatic spices on top of it. On the side was a fried egg and sauce.
Max watched the food in a daze. He thought, 'so this is a noble’s lunch. It’s so extravagant. No, this is a piece of art.'
But how do I eat this? Max turned his head to look at Lucas, and immediately copied him, and started to stiffly cut the steak with the knife in one hand and fork in the other hand.
He couldn’t cut the steak as smoothly as Lord Lucas could. The steak on his plate was constantly moving, and Max was struggling.
He was intoxicated when he put a piece of steak into his mouth. He could swear that everything he had previously eaten was the same as pig food.
Mina was eating the steak in her hand with a joyful smile. She was reminded of her shameful manners when she first ate steak.
“Max, how’s the steak?” Lucas asked with a smile.
“Ah?” Max was slightly surprised and quickly stood up and saluted. “My lord, this is the best food I have eaten in my life.”
“Sit.” Lucas waved his hand. “If you like it, I’ll let the chef pack a meal for you to bring home.”
“Thank you, my lord!” Max saluted excitedly.
“Eat. It’ll taste bad when it gets cold.” Lucas smiled warmly.
Lucas quickly finished the steak and was slowly sipping on a cup of tea. He turned his head to look at Mina, who was eating her 4th serving of steak, and couldn’t help but laugh. The cat girl was really a glutton.
“Max, do you know how many people in Sedona City are educated?”
Max answered Lucas’s question as soon as he finished eating. He said, “My lord, there are too few people that are educated in Sedona City. Out of 100 people, there might be only 2 people that are educated.”
That answer was within Lucas’s expectations. After all, it was hard for commoners to send their children to the academy when they couldn't even feed themselves.
“How many children between 6 and 15 years old are there?” Lucas asked.
“My lord, there are only about 300 children within that age range in Sedona City.” Max said. He had lived a long time in the city and knew a lot of people.
Lucas frowned when he heard the number of children. Human population was also a type of resource in the cold weapon era. It seems that he needs to include 'increasing the population' as part of his next plan.
“Max, I have a mission for you.” Lucas let a maid take away the tableware and served Max a cup of tea.
“My lord, please command me.” Max said respectfully. His life was heaps better than before. He even had lunch with Lord Lucas and could brag about it for a whole year.
“I need more people in Sedona City to be literate,” said Lucas. “Of course, I won’t force anyone. You only need to open an academy during the night to teach people to read and write for 1 to 2 hours.”
Lucas knew that most people were busy during the day and rushed to do things. They would only be able to slow down and rest during the night.
“My lord, this…” Max hesitated. He didn’t think that the commoners would waste time learning to read and write.
“Don’t worry, I know what you’re thinking. I will solve all the problems. You just need to focus on setting up the academy." said Lucas, smiling mysteriously.
His plans could only be carried out with more literate people. Illiterate would be swayed too easily by others, and besides that, he needs talented people in different fields. Once people become literate they can be used in many fields by him.
He would add a few things such as how great Lord Lucas is and how to contribute more to Sedona City in their studies.
Before Max could speak, Lucas handed him a bunch of stuff and a pen.
“This is paper. Something that is used to write. It is cheaper, lighter, and more suitable for writing than sheepskin scroll.”
“You can go back to try it tonight. You can pick a few soldiers from the military camp and teach them. You just need to teach them to recognize words and numbers.”
Max walked out with the stack of paper and steak in his hands. The steak really was delicious, and he was willing to go through a challenge for this type of lifestyle because he had a mysterious and powerful city lord.
