Appealing to their sense of not wanting to waste food. That's at least a little clever.

Basket weaving is, as far as I know, traditionally not made specifically by either men or women. Smaller things like sewing or knitting tend to be more on the feminine side, while woodcraft is more manly. Depends on culture, naturally, and what activities they "compete" with.

She's cute with the sweater, though. Even if she's sweaty.

Elves are hungry for inventions.

Can't really compare paper and parchment in terms of cost and availability. Once you figure out how to consistently make good paper (which to be fair, isn't easy), it's just better. While parchment is more durable, you often don't need that extra durability.

How surprisingly progressive of them to have the men in a handicrafts role.

 

[dbgecko]

I don't know much about knitting, but that dude had to have been working nonstop to make two whole sweaters that fast

No. It's ancient. Depending on culture and specific type of handicraft.

Might be intentional, can't go wrong with sweater puppies, if summer gets any hotter the first village might get 'new' residents by next spring.

Rozemyne is probably got summoned in the background somewhere the moment they started talking about books and making more books.

 

[GridLite]

it's funny how they're basically researchers in guise of a "village" lmao

 

[JACGohu]

Aye

Printing industry?

Aye, she'd be very pleased with this village.

 

[darkeden112]

I too also want to be sucked dry by the elves.

My grandfather weaved baskets as a sidegig. Farming has plenty of down time so anyone who's main source of income is farming has sidegigs, such as rearing cattle or making handicrafts, cutting down trees, building houses or a little bit of every one of these

The dark elves squeezed our boy in bed until he spilled the deets 😩

This chapter is really treading on the toes of Ascendance of A Bookworm.

Thank everyone at LHTranslation for the translation

They're most likely the single strongest nation in terms of wealth, influence, and military strength, and the head of it says "yeah it's a couple of villages"

 

[dowiet]

Love their obsessive nature about new inventions

Would a sweater technically be a sweat shop? Because if worn in summer, it’s like you’re making your body produce sweat unrelenting
