...

The next morning.

After breakfast, Lynn sat beside the fireplace burning with charcoal.

In his hand, he held a small stone mill.

His left hand held the mill, and his right hand held the grindstone, moving back and forth, the grindstone grinding on the stone plate.

Crack~crack~

A faint cracking sound continuously emanated from it.

...

Outside the castle, it was drizzling.

Though not heavy, in temperatures around freezing, even light rain was intolerable.

Thus.

Lynn allocated the townsmen who needed to work outside to various workshops.

Temporarily boosting manpower for the production in the workshops.

As for him, he had Old John bring some dried herbs to be ground into powder.

Not only could they be used for future treatment needs, but he could also grind medical skills experience.

A dual benefit.

While grinding the herbs in his hand, Lynn opened the weather forecast panel.

In the next few days, the weather and temperature were expected to remain around freezing.

However, as Lynn checked, his brows furrowed.

In a week, the temperature would drop to minus five degrees, accompanied by heavy snow.

Minus five degrees, the wheat seedlings could still withstand.

But snow was a fatal threat to the wheat seedlings.

After heavy snow, when the snow melts, and the temperature drops, ice will form!

This will cause fatal frost damage to the budding wheat seedlings.

Although the planting of winter barley was done by strip sowing.

There are ridges on both sides of each ridge, where melted ice water can flow through...

But it will still have an impact.

Precautionary measures must be taken against the incoming heavy snow weather.

He didn't want the millions of pounds of winter barley planted to yield nothing!

Lynn looked at a guard, "Go get Wilbur and Gavin!"

The guard responded and withdrew.

Until a dozen minutes later.

Several somewhat hurried footsteps sounded from the distant stairs.

Led by the guard, Gavin and Wilbur arrived at the hall and approached Lynn.

Standing five or six meters in front of Lynn, Gavin and Wilbur bent slightly, respectfully saying: "Master."

Lynn asked, "How many farmers are under your command now?"

Gavin and Wilbur exchanged a glance, and Gavin explained: "Master, there are two hundred."

"Because it's winter now, the rain has caused the soil to form blocks, so we arranged for them to do soil loosening work..."

Lynn nodded.

Recently, other industry developments had been ongoing, leaving no time to tend to the wheat seedlings in the fields.

But fortunately, with Gavin and Wilbur, plus it's winter now, there isn't much labor needed for care.

So he didn't have to worry too much.

Lynn spoke to the two: "You did well."

"But starting today, there are other tasks you need to do."

"In seven days, there will be a heavy snowfall. I need you to lead your 200 farmers to keep the wheat seedlings warm and moist!"

Gavin and Wilbur asked, puzzled: "Warm and moist?"

Lynn nodded, "Yes, cover the wheat seedlings with gathered weeds, at least five centimeters thick."

The weeds and wild grass cleared from nearly fifty thousand acres of wasteland had long been collected.

Whether used as fodder for the pastures or straw for livestock rest, it was a good choice.

Now, these weeds and wild grasses can naturally be used to keep the wheat seedlings warm.

Gavin and Wilbur responded in unison: "Yes, Master."

After listening to Master Lynn's instructions and advice, the two retreated and left the hall.

Not until reaching the first-floor corridor did Gavin and Wilbur remember what Master Lynn had just said.

How did Master Lynn know there would be snow?

And precisely in seven days?

However, recalling Master Lynn's precise prediction of rain last time, this prediction of snow wasn't surprising either.

Gavin and Wilbur calmed down.

After arranging the farming matters, Lynn returned to the grinding of herbs.

...

Time was swiftly passing.

Until afternoon, the drizzle in the sky finally stopped.

All the townsmen who joined the handicraft workshops left and returned to their positions.

Lynn walked through the town.

Watching the townsmen begin to busy themselves.

Yet, when they saw Lynn with Red, they stopped and bowed to Lynn.

Lynn nodded in return and walked past.

He arrived at the open square in front of the town.

Jode was leading a hundred townsmen, carving statues.

Several erected wooden frames surrounded the stacked granite.

Jode, along with a few apprentice sculptors, each bound with a thick hemp rope, stood on the granite, carving the initial shapes.

On the granite, there were numerous white markings.

Clearly, these were preliminary sculpting lines drawn by Jode.

Given that it's the early stage, even apprentice sculptors without experience wouldn't make major mistakes or errors by following the lines.
