Compared to Earth, the social environment in the Mystical Land was still at the level of the Middle Ages in Europe. However, with the efforts of many transmigrators, the style of the Mystical Land was developed and integrated with the modern era of Earth. For example, the Technology Guild established by Lin's follower, Uzov Gantia, had grown to the point that it could not be ignored.
The introduction of large-scale production methods, the replacement of human labor with machines to perform repetitive operations, and the mass-produced products impacted the inherent market of the Holy City of Estali. It could be said that except for a few magical items made with secret techniques, the Technology Guild had already occupied half of the market of ordinary items, such as construction and infrastructure projects, and its influence continued to expand.
According to Lin's plan, a considerable number of the children who were taken in would enter the Technology Guild in the future. They would either become the apprentices of a master, or become clerks or salespeople of the guild. After all, not everyone was suited for fighting and killing, as well as adventuring in the wilderness all day long.
The Technology Guild was mentioned because he had to deal with the members of the guild recently. The key word was "ready-made clothes."
The clothes worn by the people of the Mystic Land had always been made from cloth woven by the people themselves, cut and sewed by themselves. Aristocrats or wealthy merchants would naturally find a tailor to tailor their own clothes.
The sewing machine was a tool that Lin and the others had developed a long time ago. The jacquard machine, which was more advanced than the loom, was used to weave magic silk, so it was not very troublesome to make a loom.
The reason why these two outposts of the industrial revolution, the pioneers of light industry, and the core technology of the textile industry were released was because of a bet made by someone. Lin and a half-elf tailor made an agreement to ask the tailor to develop tannin cloth that met his requirements. As long as he could find the method to make tannin cloth, he would provide the two technologies to help the tailor to mass produce it, and he would not limit the tailor's use.
The so-called tannin cloth was the fabric used to make jeans. This fabric was thick, wear-resistant, and was not afraid of washing or tearing. There were even some people who did not wash it in their lifetime. It was the most suitable fabric for laborers.
At first, Lin went to the guild to visit. In a chat with Uzov, Uzov inadvertently complained that the clothes of the members of the Technology Guild were always torn or torn during work. In order to maintain their dignity, they spent too much time mending clothes. Therefore, Lin jokingly proposed the concept of tannin cloth and ready-made clothes, but he did not know the specific weaving method.
The half-elf tailor heard a conversation between a master and a servant, and volunteered to study the fabric mentioned by a certain mage. Lin joked that if the tailor could really figure something out, he would also provide the technology to help the other party to mass produce it.
Then, the half-elf really did figure something. Although he did not know whether the fabric cloth in the Mystical Land was or not, he supported the other party to use the Mystical Land of the Mystical Land version of tannin cloth was as a stepping stone of the Mystical Land's clothing market.
As expected, the work clothes made of denning cloth were highly sought after by the members of the Technical Guild. Clothes made to be made with the Mystical Land Mystical Land, or Mystical Land Land Art. Although the size of the ready-made clothes didn't fit perfectly, if he bought a bigger one, he could modify it afterwards or simply tie it with a rope. It was much faster than the old method of having to do everything himself.
Time was money. Nobody knew when this sentence started to spread among the Mystical Land Mystical Land Art members.
With the huge demand, the scale of the garment factory expanded rapidly. Even the fabrics used were no longer limited to tannin cloth, including ordinary homespun cloth, linen, and cotton. From children to adults, from dwarves to half-orcs, as long as there was a Homo sapiens active in the Holy City of Estali, they could always find clothes that fit their body size.
It was also because of the existence of this garment factory that Lin did not let the group of children who came to rely on him walk around his home naked.
After solving the first two problems of the children's clothing, food, housing, and transportation, the problem of their accommodation was brought to the table. The final plan was to build a branch library that combined teaching and accommodation in addition to the main residence. Because this group of children would eventually grow up, the accommodation space was arranged according to the size of adults. The construction team of the Mystical Land Mystical Land Art Association quickly established the project and put it on the agenda.
However, before the branch library was built, Lin mobilized a group of tents for the group of children to live in for the time being. Anyway, it was just summer now, and it was not cold enough to go into the house to start a fire to warm up. Sleeping in the tent, other than the mosquitoes that were more troublesome, it was not a big problem for the group of children.
One had to know that the place where they slept and lived before did not even have roof tiles that could cover the top of their heads. Even a tent was better than their previous life, not to mention the big house that was being built. These tangible benefits that could be seen with the eyes rekindled the group of children's hope for life.
Another important point was the health of this group of children.
No matter how advanced the Holy City of Estali was among the cities in the Mystical Land, life in the slums was still as cruel as anywhere else. Therefore, children who were weak and sickly were easily eliminated. Not to mention, in this world with a backward medical environment, it was too common for children not to be raised. It was so common that it was not surprising at all.
The children who could come to Lin alive more or less had some physical problems. However, they were all minor diseases like malnutrition, parasites, psoriasis, and scabies. Even if they were left alone, they could live in a hygienic and clean environment for a period of time, with some medicine and nutritious food, and good quality sleep. These diseases would naturally heal without needing to be deliberately treated.
The most troublesome was still the thin and weak girl named Lucy, who Ezio was the most anxious about. At least, Kaya and Marchioness Barland, who were in charge of the preliminary examination, could not tell what the focus of this girl's illness was. Only one thing was certain. It would not be a surprise when this child, Lucy, passed away. Because her body was too weak and she had no appetite.
When a child in the growing period could not even eat for a long time, it was likely that she did not have much time left. This was the only judgment that the Mage could make after Lucy was brought to Lin.
Although a certain someone could use healing magic, it did not mean that he was a good doctor who could cure all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases. As expected, he still had to ask that Lich for help with a problem of this level.
After making this judgment, Lin did not delay and immediately took Lucy to knock on the Lich's door. In addition to Lucy's eldest brother, Willy, accompanying her, there was also a large group of children following from a distance.
