As if the weather is getting colder every day, everyone knows that autumn has arrived and winter is not far away.
Unlike the gradual cooling weather, a raging fire ignited in the hearts of the Ross people.
Autumn is here, and it's time for the gathering of Novgorod people for tribute.
Of course, there are too many differences in this year's situation. This year's Sorgon voyage, the fleet will be able to rest at Tombstone Island and Shilla Fort, these two emerging strongholds, so that the long and arduous trek in the past will not be too hard.
Ordinary people are still stocking winter supplies, and all kinds of people who have joined the Rus group have begun to accept a new life.
Since this fall, the situation has indeed changed, because the people who live in Roseburg have surpassed the level of 8,000. Although he hadn't conducted a comprehensive census, Otto could intuitively realize population changes, and he was puzzled. It is clear that more than a thousand people have colonized the country. How could the population of the home city of Roseburg increase? He determined that the purpose of building Silla Fort was to divert the population.
In fact, the reason is very simple.
The number of merchants arriving in Roseburg this year has increased, and they are here for wealth.
The merchants all say that the Russ made a fortune because of the crusade against the Gotland. Although the Danes avenged their brothers, the Russ did not lose, and the population increased.
Gould made an unprecedented deal with the leader of Ross, claiming that the payment was as high as 60,000 silver coins.
Moreover, the Ross people were extremely generous and took out the money the first time.
The fact is also true. At noon on the second day of that night banquet, Rurik personally led Gould into the sacred long house of the priest.
In the long house, High Priest Veria also gave a brief ceremony to Gould, the fat man, to admit that he had become a Rus.
A large number of silver coins were moved to Gould's mansion. According to the agreement, Gould will continue to fulfill the obligations of the agreement, such as building a house.
It can be said that the large amount of looted coins eventually flooded into the hands of Rurik and Gould.
Since Gould is now very willing to obey Rurik's arrangement, Rurik's "big cash box" has become the "central bank" of the Roseburg tribe and has the ability to regulate the tribal economy.
He realized that he could use his wealth to mobilize all kinds of people in the tribe by throwing coins, making it possible for the economy to start running at a high speed. Of course, coin throwing is not random. Currency is a medium, and these mediums need to be retrieved through reasonable means to continue the cycle.
There are still fewer than 10,000 people from the Rus tribe and guest residents, and the narrow market naturally makes Rurik look to the not-too-distant south and the mysterious east.
What should I do next?
produce! Mass production! Although those servants are weak, they have to recover from crooked health, so they must create wealth for the master!
Of course, the biggest problem now is that Lurik definitely still has to solve the housing, clothing and eating problems of his various people.
After all, if sheep freeze to death and starve to death, they will not be able to stalk their wool.
Rurik used the power of money to hire more tribal women to spin hemp thread, weave cloth, and tailor leather. The prerequisite for women to be able to give full play to their handicraft capabilities is naturally that merchants sell a large amount of flax.
Like the little maid his father had brought from Novgorod, Rurik gave them uniform dresses.
The problem now is that there are still 60 orphans picked up by the Mellaren tribe. They are also their own servants and naturally need to wear uniforms.
Rurik has not thought about why he has an astonishing number of maids, in short, the reality is like this.
As for the other twenty Briton women, they still seem to be believers of God? Since they all know how to weave, the linen rod is finally made into linen. This is the first task that Rurik gave them.
Rurik selected thirty girls with good physical fitness. They put on brand new clothes and moved into the long house exclusively reserved for the servant. The other maids were still waiting.
For a time, the labor force in the soap workshop increased, and the work of the priestess Palla became more exhausted. To manage the exponential increase in the number of children, to restrain their behavior and avoid the possibility of quarreling with each other, the most important thing is to arrange for them to work. It is really difficult to rely solely on Parla's female stream as a "life teacher".
Difficulties come from hardships, and the children generally cherish the life that they have food to eat.
The production capacity of soap has suddenly increased due to the participation of children!
It is not only the increase in staff that leads to the increase in production capacity, but the most critical reason is also the supply of raw materials.
It is entirely because of people's fear of winter that fishermen are increasingly inclined to hunt seals basking in the sun, and the entire Gulf of Bothnia has to search for whales and wait for opportunities to hunt.
Seal oil and whale oil are all good materials for burning lamps, but fishermen know that selling excess fat to Lurik will be paid higher than the market price.
They don't know the inside story, and they don't bother to ask, just want to play with the silver coins in their hands happily.
Seal grease was originally the main source of oil for soap, but now the supply is even greater.
More soap production means more wealth, and now, Rurik and even himself are obviously building a huge economy. Moreover, the characteristics of this economy do not come from traditional agricultural production, but the processing of daily necessities, in order to obtain a lot of wealth through the high value-added and premium of the products. Then they are using the money they earn to import Roseburg's necessities from foreigners, such as a large amount of food.
In Roseburg alone, the economy is export-oriented.
Of course, this situation is changing. The Fort Shilla, built on the Neva River, may become a production base for food and leather, but it will take many years to mature there. Before that, the economy of the Rus tribe still relied heavily on trade.
Otherwise, the happy days that have suddenly risen will suddenly disappear, making the Ross people back to the roughness they once were. To make matters worse, once you start enjoying a good life, it is difficult for everyone to go back.
After receiving Rurik’s money, loggers and construction workers became more active, and even took their children into the construction.
More new longhouses are being built. Brand new longhouses were built in the previous deserts. In order to avoid the possibility of sea tide erosion, their terrain is very high, making them quite conspicuous.
Otto would like to see everything that happened to the tribe.
And Otto, he also officially started the preparation of supplies to support Shilla Fort.
But before setting sail, another huge happy event descended on Otto's family.
That's Arik's wife, Peravina has finally reached a critical moment!
On the soft deerskin lies a pot-bellied woman in pain who thinks her face is sweaty.
She is Peravina, and the waiting for nearly a year has finally reached this most critical moment.
Arik stayed anxiously in his long house. He clasped his wife's hand full of veins, and kept comforting: "Hold on, Peravina, our child, must..."
"Yes! I...I'm working hard."
Originally, Niya, the midwife, felt that Arik had to avoid it, even if it was her wife who was about to give birth. Niya brought her son Rurik into the long house. She believed that because of her son's identity, Peravina could be protected from dystocia.
But the current situation is obviously a bit bad!
Arik was still invited in, and he held his wife's hand tightly to appease Peravina in extreme pain.
"Child! Hard! Don't be afraid of the pain, be strong and patient!"
"Strong harder, hold on."
"Oh, my Peravina, there must be a brave boy in your stomach. Hold on, another Ross warrior is about to be born!"
Niya kept up the spirit, and she was really only able to do this.
Of course, there is a surgical operation such as cesarean section in this era, but the child survived, but the mother died.
Chu female concubine Li may be the earliest recorded woman who underwent a cesarean section. She died, and Chu was born because of her.
Of course, Peravina is not going to give birth to a child in this extreme way. She is still working hard and has given birth to the child in her womb. Niya has no midwifery forceps, and no medicine for pain relief. Everything depends on Peravina and the grace of God.
Seeing that the child is still not born, and Peravina is almost exhausted.
Niya was in a hurry, and hurriedly brought over Liu Likla who had been stunned: "Quick! What to do?"
"Huh? What can I do?"
"Pray, pray to God. You are blessed, pray! Pray to God to reduce your sister's suffering."
prayer? Rurik thought it was ridiculous.
However, he looked at his sister-in-law's painful mid-term expectant eyes, so he leaned close to her face, squatted down with his hands clasped his fists, hooked his head thoughtfully, giving the feeling of others, Rurik seemed to be communicating with God.
It was true that Rurik had never seen a woman give birth, and he even felt embarrassed to be here.
The problem now is that my appearance is the greatest spiritual comfort to my sister-in-law, and it seems to have really relieved her pain.
Sister-in-law Peravina is not a weak woman, how could she have a dystocia?
Is she not only pregnant with a big fat boy, or a very big giant baby?
While Rurik pretended to pray, Arik and Niya tried their best to calm Peravina's emotions. Lu Mia, the head maid of Rurik, is also busy in the long house, especially using the indoor campfire to burn a copper pot of hot water to prepare for the child.
Outdoors, the big boss kept spinning at the door, after all, his grandchildren were about to be born. The Ross people do not have such a clear concept of generation. The meaning of "grandnephew" and "pro-grandson" is almost the same.
He was looking forward to the safe birth of the descendants of his dead brothers, and his fellow folks gathered together and heard the crying indoors, ridiculing the birth of a future warrior, just like that child's father Arik must be of age. Make great achievements in just a little bit.
Maybe it really is the power of prayer! At least Niya thinks so.
At first it was the baby's lanugo, and then a big fat boy closed his eyes and came to the world in thunderous crying.
The baby's cry spread to the outdoors in an instant, and Otto didn't turn around. His guys, who were sitting on the floor like pigeons in line, stood up instantly. Everyone flocked to the confined wooden door, hearing the voices inside, they couldn't help but bloom with joy.
"Haha! It's a boy!" Niya touched her wet grand-nephew, her face blooming with joy.
"Lumia! Knife!"
Niya took the roasted dagger that Lumia had handed over, and suddenly cut the child's umbilical cord, and then immediately wiped the baby boy's body with the prepared warm water, and used the prepared Very clean lambskin wrapped him.
Niya held the baby and knelt beside the extremely weak and relieved Peravina. She placed the crying baby beside her mother.
Looking at her son, Peravina was already in tears. She gently touched the child's smiling face with her finger, and the child cried strongly.
"Ah! It's my good son. Peravina, you gave me a good son." said Arik, who was extremely excited. If he was not stopped by his aunt Niya, he would immediately pick up his son. Up.
The nineteen-year-old cousin has become a father, and Rurik looks at the child, and he feels relieved.
"Brother, give him a name," Rurik reminded first.
"Oh! Yes! I want to give him a good name."
But what kind of name it took, but stumped Arik. He really wanted to give his son a domineering name, and then personally train this baby into a berserker on the battlefield, and continue to make great contributions to the tribe.
After Niya completely removed the placenta, the weak Peravina sat up reluctantly and looked at her husband who was struggling with naming: "He is my son. Let me come on the naming matter."
"You? Okay. Give our son a good name."
"It's called Asgardal."
"This name? What do you mean." Arik was a little confused, but Rurik understood a little.
"It's a gift from Asgard, my brother." Rurik smiled.
Peravina laughed with relief: "Our Rurik is the most wise. Arik, our child has the dual blood of Rus and Novgorod, and his name inherited this. ."
"That's right." Rurik could add, "Dahl, the language of Novgorod means offering a gift."
"Okay." Arik shrugged, "I still want to call him Asgard." Then, looking at his son with his eyes closed, he said softly: "Asgard, you have this noble name, I can To train you into a good fighter, you must be braver than me."
Niya looked at all this with satisfaction, she smiled and said, "Peravina, it must be because of Rurik’s prayer that Odin blessed you, so your child has also been blessed. This child, use Dongfang His language is Asgard, and our language is Asgard."
"Then call Asgard." Peravina smiled shyly. "Because I'm already from Ross, am I?"
Who could have imagined that Asgard was born like this, and there is indeed a destiny in the dark. This child will inherit the power of his father and grandfather and become a powerful warrior.
And, became an important figure in the Ross tribe.
Arik’s wife gave birth to a very healthy baby boy, and the good news spread quickly among the Ross tribe, because it meant that the chief’s family had added a boy.
The boy's name is also very domineering. Who has the courage to name his son "the sanctuary of the gods"? Are you not afraid of punishment from the gods?
The child is called Asgard and he is very healthy. Everyone believes that this child will be a magical existence like Rurik again?
Everyone is willing to believe this, it remains to be seen whether it is true.
And this was just the beginning. In the days that followed, the first batch of Novgorod women to marry all finished giving birth. Fortunately, no one had a dystocia.
Naturally, there are boys and girls among the children born. In the past, some girls would be deliberately abandoned by their parents. The very realistic reason was that they could not be supported. But this year's situation has changed. If one's own food is more abundant, who would cruelly abandon their children?
Now the women of Roseburg have become unprecedentedly important. Rurik paid the women who worked for him, and once the woman held the silver coin, some things had changed.
Peravina has completely entered the state of a mother. Of course, Lurik wants to give his sister-in-law the best supplement, and he even hopes that her sister-in-law can be a month old. The Ross people do not have the concept of confinement here. Lurik still persuades his cousin Arik that he must make his sister-in-law stay at home for at least ten days and take the child with him.
What does Arik think? He felt that his precious brother's prayer must have worked, and it was precisely because of that prayer that his wife, who had been in childbirth, quickly got out of pain. He obeyed his brother's words, which made Peravina eat a lot of meat and oatmeal every day, as well as honey.
What is the result? Asgard, who has opened his eyes and chuckles, has received the best nurturing.
The time has already entered September, and the last roof meadow of Rurik’s new house is about to be laid. Many of the indoor furniture, such as comfortable wooden beds, are now being moved. It is very obvious that before Otto sets sail, he can enjoy the joy of living in his new home.
Now, the long house of the old mansion has long since got rid of the desertedness it once was. There are two more people living here, Carlotta and Ella. Because of their noble identities, the first day they moved in, they were able to sleep with Rurik of the same age.
Although Lumia's identity is just a maid, it is only temporary. After learning that Lumia would inherit the tribal high priest sooner or later, Carlotta respected her almost instinctively. When the two sisters learned that Lumia knew how to raise deer, the three of them immediately talked about how to raise large animals.
After all, there seems to be no difference between raising deer and raising cattle. As a result, the Carlotta sisters who are ashamed of eating plain rice, and the shepherd boys of the reindeer who suddenly came together, and their proficiency in herding also greatly admired Lumia.
Since everyone has a noble identity, even if the ethnicity is different, the grievances in the hearts of the three girls disappear.
There are four children in Otto's family, and three girls surround Rurik.
It was another quiet night, and only Otto's snoring brought a trace of annoying clutter to the original calm.
This night, because of some random thoughts, Rurik kept his eyes open and pondered in his heart, and even kicked back one of Carlotta's drooping legs.
Rurik still thinks of Asgard's kid~www.novelhall.com~Asgardall? Asgard? Why do I always feel so familiar? Wait, will it be..."
"Peravina will never have only this son. She gave birth once safely, and she will definitely not have a dystocia in the future. She has another son, shouldn't it be called Jill?"
"Well, if there is Jill, who is Oleg? Is it my sister's child? But I don't have a sister."
Thinking of this, Rurik in the dark night stared at Carlotta's sleeping little face suddenly and was startled.
"She?! No way. Isn't that my child? But Igor must be my son? Where is Igor's mother? Svetlana? Damn, the change in the world line is probably not small anymore. "
The more he thought about it, the more upset he became, and Rurik pushed off Carlotta's legs to avoid turning into a human-shaped pillow again. He thought calmly, savoring carefully.
"Well, I am the lord of Novgorod. Maybe Asgard, I have to arrange for him to conquer Kiev or something. Ah, I still want to be more peaceful. I want order, not too much. brutal."

Rurik used the power of money to hire more tribal women to spin hemp thread, weave cloth, and tailor leather. The prerequisite for women to be able to give full play to their handicraft capabilities is naturally that merchants sell a large amount of flax.
Like the little maid his father had brought from Novgorod, Rurik gave them uniform dresses.
The problem now is that there are still 60 orphans picked up by the Mellaren tribe. They are also their own servants and naturally need to wear uniforms.

What does Arik think? He felt that his precious brother's prayer must have worked, and it was precisely because of that prayer that his wife, who had been in childbirth, quickly got out of pain. He obeyed his brother's words, which made Peravina eat a lot of meat and oatmeal every day, as well as honey.
What is the result? Asgard, who has opened his eyes and chuckles, has received the best nurturing.
The time has already entered September, and the last roof meadow of Rurik’s new house is about to be laid. Many of the indoor furniture, such as comfortable wooden beds, are now being moved. It is very obvious that before Otto sets sail, he can enjoy the joy of living in his new home.
Now, the long house of the old mansion has long since got rid of the desertedness it once was. There are two more people living here, Carlotta and Ella. Because of their noble identities, the first day they moved in, they were able to sleep with Rurik of the same age.
Although Lumia's identity is just a maid, it is only temporary. After learning that Lumia would inherit the tribal high priest sooner or later, Carlotta respected her almost instinctively. When the two sisters learned that Lumia knew how to raise deer, the three of them immediately talked about how to raise large animals.
After all, there seems to be no difference between raising deer and raising cattle. As a result, the Carlotta sisters who are ashamed of eating plain rice, and the shepherd boys of the reindeer who suddenly came together, and their proficiency in herding also greatly admired Lumia.
Since everyone has a noble identity, even if the ethnicity is different, the grievances in the hearts of the three girls disappear.
There are four children in Otto's family, and three girls surround Rurik.
It was another quiet night, and only Otto's snoring brought a trace of annoying clutter to the original calm.
This night, because of some random thoughts, Rurik kept his eyes open and pondered in his heart, and even kicked back one of Carlotta's drooping legs.
Rurik still thinks of Asgard's kid~www.novelhall.com~Asgardall? Asgard? Why do I always feel so familiar? Wait, will it be..."
"Peravina will never have only this son. She gave birth once safely, and she will definitely not have a dystocia in the future. She has another son, shouldn't it be called Jill?"
"Well, if there is Jill, who is Oleg? Is it my sister's child? But I don't have a sister."
Thinking of this, Rurik in the dark night stared at Carlotta's sleeping little face suddenly and was startled.
"She?! No way. Isn't that my child? But Igor must be my son? Where is Igor's mother? Svetlana? Damn, the change in the world line is probably not small anymore. "
The more he thought about it, the more upset he became, and Rurik pushed off Carlotta's legs to avoid turning into a human-shaped pillow again. He thought calmly, savoring carefully.
"Well, I am the lord of Novgorod. Maybe Asgard, I have to arrange for him to conquer Kiev or something. Ah, I still want to be more peaceful. I want order, not too much. brutal."
As if the weather is getting colder every day, everyone knows that autumn has arrived and winter is not far away.Unlike the gradual cooling weather, a raging fire ignited in the hearts of the Ross people.Autumn is here, and it's time for the gathering of Novgorod people for tribute.Of course, there are too many differences in this year's situation. This year's Sorgon voyage, the fleet will be able to rest at Tombstone Island and Shilla Fort, these two emerging strongholds, so that the long and arduous trek in the past will not be too hard.Ordinary people are still stocking winter supplies, and all kinds of people who have joined the Rus group have begun to accept a new life.Since this fall, the situation has indeed changed, because the people who live in Roseburg have surpassed the level of 8,000. Although he hadn't conducted a comprehensive census, Otto could intuitively realize population changes, and he was puzzled. It is clear that more than a thousand people have colonized the country. How could the population of the home city of Roseburg increase? He determined that the purpose of building Silla Fort was to divert the population.In fact, the reason is very simple.The number of merchants arriving in Roseburg this year has increased, and they are here for wealth.The merchants all say that the Russ made a fortune because of the crusade against the Gotland. Although the Danes avenged their brothers, the Russ did not lose, and the population increased.Gould made an unprecedented deal with the leader of Ross, claiming that the payment was as high as 60,000 silver coins.Moreover, the Ross people were extremely generous and took out the money the first time.The fact is also true. At noon on the second day of that night banquet, Rurik personally led Gould into the sacred long house of the priest.In the long house, High Priest Veria also gave a brief ceremony to Gould, the fat man, to admit that he had become a Rus.A large number of silver coins were moved to Gould's mansion. According to the agreement, Gould will continue to fulfill the obligations of the agreement, such as building a house.It can be said that the large amount of looted coins eventually flooded into the hands of Rurik and Gould.Since Gould is now very willing to obey Rurik's arrangement, Rurik's "big cash box" has become the "central bank" of the Roseburg tribe and has the ability to regulate the tribal economy.He realized that he could use his wealth to mobilize all kinds of people in the tribe by throwing coins, making it possible for the economy to start running at a high speed. Of course, coin throwing is not random. Currency is a medium, and these mediums need to be retrieved through reasonable means to continue the cycle.There are still fewer than 10,000 people from the Rus tribe and guest residents, and the narrow market naturally makes Rurik look to the not-too-distant south and the mysterious east.What should I do next?produce! Mass production! Although those servants are weak, they have to recover from crooked health, so they must create wealth for the master!Of course, the biggest problem now is that Lurik definitely still has to solve the housing, clothing and eating problems of his various people.After all, if sheep freeze to death and starve to death, they will not be able to stalk their wool.Rurik used the power of money to hire more tribal women to spin hemp thread, weave cloth, and tailor leather. The prerequisite for women to be able to give full play to their handicraft capabilities is naturally that merchants sell a large amount of flax.Like the little maid his father had brought from Novgorod, Rurik gave them uniform dresses.The problem now is that there are still 60 orphans picked up by the Mellaren tribe. They are also their own servants and naturally need to wear uniforms.Rurik has not thought about why he has an astonishing number of maids, in short, the reality is like this.As for the other twenty Briton women, they still seem to be believers of God? Since they all know how to weave, the linen rod is finally made into linen. This is the first task that Rurik gave them.Rurik selected thirty girls with good physical fitness. They put on brand new clothes and moved into the long house exclusively reserved for the servant. The other maids were still waiting.For a time, the labor force in the soap workshop increased, and the work of the priestess Palla became more exhausted. To manage the exponential increase in the number of children, to restrain their behavior and avoid the possibility of quarreling with each other, the most important thing is to arrange for them to work. It is really difficult to rely solely on Parla's female stream as a "life teacher".Difficulties come from hardships, and the children generally cherish the life that they have food to eat.The production capacity of soap has suddenly increased due to the participation of children!It is not only the increase in staff that leads to the increase in production capacity, but the most critical reason is also the supply of raw materials.It is entirely because of people's fear of winter that fishermen are increasingly inclined to hunt seals basking in the sun, and the entire Gulf of Bothnia has to search for whales and wait for opportunities to hunt.Seal oil and whale oil are all good materials for burning lamps, but fishermen know that selling excess fat to Lurik will be paid higher than the market price.They don't know the inside story, and they don't bother to ask, just want to play with the silver coins in their hands happily.Seal grease was originally the main source of oil for soap, but now the supply is even greater.More soap production means more wealth, and now, Rurik and even himself are obviously building a huge economy. Moreover, the characteristics of this economy do not come from traditional agricultural production, but the processing of daily necessities, in order to obtain a lot of wealth through the high value-added and premium of the products. Then they are using the money they earn to import Roseburg's necessities from foreigners, such as a large amount of food.In Roseburg alone, the economy is export-oriented.Of course, this situation is changing. The Fort Shilla, built on the Neva River, may become a production base for food and leather, but it will take many years to mature there. Before that, the economy of the Rus tribe still relied heavily on trade.Otherwise, the happy days that have suddenly risen will suddenly disappear, making the Ross people back to the roughness they once were. To make matters worse, once you start enjoying a good life, it is difficult for everyone to go back.After receiving Rurik's money, loggers and construction workers became more active, and even took their children into the construction.More new longhouses are being built. Brand new longhouses were built in the previous deserts. In order to avoid the possibility of sea tide erosion, their terrain is very high, making them quite conspicuous.Otto would like to see everything that happened to the tribe.And Otto, he also officially started the preparation of supplies to support Shilla Fort.But before setting sail, another huge happy event descended on Otto's family.That's Arik's wife, Peravina has finally reached a critical moment!On the soft deerskin lies a pot-bellied woman in pain who thinks her face is sweaty.She is Peravina, and the waiting for nearly a year has finally reached this most critical moment.Arik stayed anxiously in his long house. He clasped his wife's hand full of veins, and kept comforting: "Hold on, Peravina, our child, must...""Yes! I...I'm working hard."Originally, Niya, the midwife, felt that Arik had to avoid it, even if it was her wife who was about to give birth. Niya brought her son Rurik into the long house. She believed that because of her son's identity, Peravina could be protected from dystocia.But the current situation is obviously a bit bad!Arik was still invited in, and he held his wife's hand tightly to appease Peravina in extreme pain."Child! Hard! Don't be afraid of the pain, be strong and patient!""Strong harder, hold on.""Oh, my Peravina, there must be a brave boy in your stomach. Hold on, another Ross warrior is about to be born!"Niya kept up the spirit, and she was really only able to do this.Of course, there is a surgical operation such as cesarean section in this era, but the child survived, but the mother died.Chu female concubine Li may be the earliest recorded woman who underwent a cesarean section. She died, and Chu was born because of her.Of course, Peravina is not going to give birth to a child in this extreme way. She is still working hard and has given birth to the child in her womb. Niya has no midwifery forceps, and no medicine for pain relief. Everything depends on Peravina and the grace of God.Seeing that the child is still not born, and Peravina is almost exhausted.Niya was in a hurry, and hurriedly brought over Liu Likla who had been stunned: "Quick! What to do?""Huh? What can I do?""Pray, pray to God. You are blessed, pray! Pray to God to reduce your sister's suffering."prayer? Rurik thought it was ridiculous.However, he looked at his sister-in-law's painful mid-term expectant eyes, so he leaned close to her face, squatted down with his hands clasped his fists, hooked his head thoughtfully, giving the feeling of others, Rurik seemed to be communicating with God.It was true that Rurik had never seen a woman give birth, and he even felt embarrassed to be here.The problem now is that my appearance is the greatest spiritual comfort to my sister-in-law, and it seems to have really relieved her pain.Sister-in-law Peravina is not a weak woman, how could she have a dystocia?Is she not only pregnant with a big fat boy, or a very big giant baby?While Rurik pretended to pray, Arik and Niya tried their best to calm Peravina's emotions. Lu Mia, the head maid of Rurik, is also busy in the long house, especially using the indoor campfire to burn a copper pot of hot water to prepare for the child.Outdoors, the big boss kept spinning at the door, after all, his grandchildren were about to be born. The Ross people do not have such a clear concept of generation. The meaning of "grandnephew" and "pro-grandson" is almost the same.He was looking forward to the safe birth of the descendants of his dead brothers, and his fellow folks gathered together and heard the crying indoors, ridiculing the birth of a future warrior, just like that child's father Arik must be of age. Make great achievements in just a little bit.Maybe it really is the power of prayer! At least Niya thinks so.At first it was the baby's lanugo, and then a big fat boy closed his eyes and came to the world in thunderous crying.The baby's cry spread to the outdoors in an instant, and Otto didn't turn around. His guys, who were sitting on the floor like pigeons in line, stood up instantly. Everyone flocked to the confined wooden door, hearing the voices inside, they couldn't help but bloom with joy."Haha! It's a boy!" Niya touched her wet grand-nephew, her face blooming with joy."Lumia! Knife!"Niya took the roasted dagger that Lumia had handed over, and suddenly cut the child's umbilical cord, and then immediately wiped the baby boy's body with the prepared warm water, and used the prepared Very clean lambskin wrapped him.Niya held the baby and knelt beside the extremely weak and relieved Peravina. She placed the crying baby beside her mother.Looking at her son, Peravina was already in tears. She gently touched the child's smiling face with her finger, and the child cried strongly."Ah! It's my good son. Peravina, you gave me a good son." said Arik, who was extremely excited. If he was not stopped by his aunt Niya, he would immediately pick up his son. Up.The nineteen-year-old cousin has become a father, and Rurik looks at the child, and he feels relieved."Brother, give him a name," Rurik reminded first."Oh! Yes! I want to give him a good name."But what kind of name it took, but stumped Arik. He really wanted to give his son a domineering name, and then personally train this baby into a berserker on the battlefield, and continue to make great contributions to the tribe.After Niya completely removed the placenta, the weak Peravina sat up reluctantly and looked at her husband who was struggling with naming: "He is my son. Let me come on the naming matter.""You? Okay. Give our son a good name.""It's called Asgardal.""This name? What do you mean." Arik was a little confused, but Rurik understood a little."It's a gift from Asgard, my brother." Rurik smiled.Peravina laughed with relief: "Our Rurik is the most wise. Arik, our child has the dual blood of Rus and Novgorod, and his name inherited this. .""That's right." Rurik could add, "Dahl, the language of Novgorod means offering a gift.""Okay." Arik shrugged, "I still want to call him Asgard." Then, looking at his son with his eyes closed, he said softly: "Asgard, you have this noble name, I can To train you into a good fighter, you must be braver than me."Niya looked at all this with satisfaction, she smiled and said, "Peravina, it must be because of Rurik's prayer that Odin blessed you, so your child has also been blessed. This child, use Dongfang His language is Asgard, and our language is Asgard.""Then call Asgard." Peravina smiled shyly. "Because I'm already from Ross, am I?"Who could have imagined that Asgard was born like this, and there is indeed a destiny in the dark. This child will inherit the power of his father and grandfather and become a powerful warrior.And, became an important figure in the Ross tribe.Arik's wife gave birth to a very healthy baby boy, and the good news spread quickly among the Ross tribe, because it meant that the chief's family had added a boy.The boy's name is also very domineering. Who has the courage to name his son "the sanctuary of the gods"? Are you not afraid of punishment from the gods?The child is called Asgard and he is very healthy. Everyone believes that this child will be a magical existence like Rurik again?Everyone is willing to believe this, it remains to be seen whether it is true.And this was just the beginning. In the days that followed, the first batch of Novgorod women to marry all finished giving birth. Fortunately, no one had a dystocia.Naturally, there are boys and girls among the children born. In the past, some girls would be deliberately abandoned by their parents. The very realistic reason was that they could not be supported. But this year's situation has changed. If one's own food is more abundant, who would cruelly abandon their children?Now the women of Roseburg have become unprecedentedly important. Rurik paid the women who worked for him, and once the woman held the silver coin, some things had changed.Peravina has completely entered the state of a mother. Of course, Lurik wants to give his sister-in-law the best supplement, and he even hopes that her sister-in-law can be a month old. The Ross people do not have the concept of confinement here. Lurik still persuades his cousin Arik that he must make his sister-in-law stay at home for at least ten days and take the child with him.What does Arik think?
