Chapter 0294 - The Rise of Thorns Civilization Stick (Fifth Update, 3400 Monthly Pass Plus Update)
The sun shone on their faces, and the working serfs took off their heavy cotton jackets, shouted slogans, raised their axes, and cut down the fast-cast iron thorns little by little.
Fast-growing iron thorns are ironwood-quality wood, which will sink to the bottom immediately when put into water, so ordinary bone tools must be cut at all, and iron tools must be used.
However, the bonesmith shop in Flower Town has very hard bone tools - made from decaying, ancient dragon bone fragments, which are polished as raw materials.
The bones of the bonesmith's shop were not sold to the public, and they were distributed free of charge to serfs under a numbering system.
Even if it had long since decayed and lost its magical powers, it was still a keel, and Liszt did not want them to be left out of town.
The keel machete, which chops through fast-cast iron thorns, has the same effect as a steel machete, and is more wear-resistant.
The serfs had a keel machete in their hands and kept slashing, and it took about half an hour to cut through a fast-growing iron thorn the thickness of an adult's arm.
It's a pity that the keel can't be polished more finely and made into a keel saw.
It is still the iron saws that are most effective in cutting wood, and in pairs of two, a fast-growing iron thorn can be sawed in five minutes. However, there is a lack of iron, and iron is used in all aspects, so the iron saw has not been able to make a few.
Anyway.
The scene was in full swing.
Liszt stood far away outside the Garden of Thorns, looking around, and he could be regarded as inspecting the logging site. The serf logging team in Flower Town is definitely a logging team with combat effectiveness, and when the tools were simple and the monsters were around, the huge thorn ridge was cut down.
Not to mention the garden of thorns.
The officials, headed by Galtai, were also very effective and organized the serfs to carry out various logging work in an orderly manner.
Those who cut trees, cut branches, carry wood, gather branches and leaves, replenish and replace damaged tools, provide hot water, and bandage wounds, all work in an orderly manner.
"Fast-growing iron thorns are high-quality ironwood thorns that grow under the influence of Zyra, although thorns are dwarf shrubs, and it is difficult for them to grow into large trees such as rock and stone trees. But it can grow quickly, and it can be harvested with the thickness of an arm, and it is used to make furniture and wood. β
Liszt said to the man beside him.
The man next to him was none other than Aubrey Humulus, son of Viscount Trick Humulus, a big fat man: "I felt the charm of fast-casting iron thorns in the carpenter's shop, the amazing quality, especially since it grew faster than weeds. β
"It's definitely not comparable to weeds, but the three-month growth cycle is really amazing, but it's not easy to cultivate it. Without Zyra, its growth cycle would have slowed down by a factor of ten, and judging by our planting in Thorn Ridge, it would take about three years to reach maturity. β
"Even if it's three years, it's remarkable. "The nobles say that Zyra's potion will bring you glory, and these ironwood thorns are not a lot of glory. β
"If Beer Island is going to be introduced, I can provide the roots of fast-growing iron thorns. Liszt said with a smile that the last thorn that Zyra lacked was provided by Beer Island, and Liszt had always remembered this favor.
"Really, then I have to thank you. β
"Sell me a little more hops. β
"From the share I can control, I'll give you thirty percent. β
"You're generous, Aubrey. β
Aubrey patted his stomach: "I also enjoy your generosity, the food in your castle is almost going to kill me." β
"You're so fat, can you go to the battlefield?"
"I'm not going to go to the battlefield anymore, at most I can follow the knights to mix up some combat exploits, or business is more suitable for me. By the way, Liszt, how about you hand over the furniture you made of ironwood quality to me to sell, although the channel of the beer castle is shabby compared to the channel of the tulip castle, but our fleet is more daring and runs farther. β
According to the information that Liszt has.
The fleet of Beer Castle seems to have been combined with the fleets of several small and medium-sized nobles on the outer islands, mastering a smuggling route to sell goods to certain areas of the Eagle Kingdom.
Of course, as long as it wasn't smuggling weapons, the Count turned a blind eye to it.
After thinking about it, Liszt responded: "As long as the profit is right, give it to the beer castle to sell, why not." β
Aubrey came to Flower Town today to discuss business. One is to order more flower soap, and the other is to share a cup of soup brewed with flowers. Just in time for Flower Town to start cutting fast-moving iron thorns, they talked about the sales cooperation of ironwood furniture.
Aubrey wanted to cooperate.
Liszt also didn't want to always use the channel of Tulip Castle, and the two hit it off.
The atmosphere of the luncheon was very warm, and the atmosphere was even more enthusiastic when the specific cooperation matters had been negotiated in the evening. Galtai, as a representative of Liszt, poured Aubrey and his party down with the mellow fragrance of flowers. In the end, they threw everyone into a public bath and took a hot shower.
As in any era.
After the arrival of the privileged class, public baths were suspended from being open to civilians.
Aubrey and the others did not stay in the castle, Liszt did not like to stay in the castle with people other than his family, and there was still the presence of the Siren Ark on the second floor.
There were a lot of people in Aubrey and his party, and the castle could not be lived, so he arranged for Aubrey and his party to live in the aristocratic quarters.
"With the current state of development in Flower Town, more nobles will come in the future, should I build a guest house?"
The Grand Duchy of Sapphire does not have a building resembling a guest house.
All the nobles were in their own castles, receiving visiting noble guests, and Liszt decided to set a precedent, after all, he had enough reasons - the castle was small and could not accommodate a few people.
Not only will it not violate aristocratic etiquette, but it will also be praised for being warm and thoughtful.
However, with the development of the territory, after he became a great nobleman, he would definitely no longer be able to use the guest house to receive guests. Otherwise, it will be considered unappreciated by the guests, and the joke that the castle is poor and sour.
He rubbed his forehead.
Have two drinks with Aubredo.
Liszt was a little drunk, and he didn't really want to sleep, and he didn't have the heart to write history. At the beginning, I vowed to compile the historical grand chapter "Dragon Fighting in the Wild", but I haven't touched it again for a whole week. When there is time, I would rather bask in the sun than write.
He rummaged through the corner of the study and pulled out a wooden stick carved with a delicate pattern.
"Is this my 'Sydchar'?"
The stellcker, like Frak Abière, was the standard of the nobility, and it was a decorative tool that reflected the grace and status of the nobility.
In the hands of the king, it is called the scepter.
In the hands of the nobility, it was called the civilization stick.
Civilization sticks can be carved with patterns, inlaid with gemstones, made of wood, or made of metal. Liszt's root is a wooden stick of civilization carved with tulip motifs. It was at his consecration that the Earl conferred.
However, since he came to Flower Town, he has not picked it up, let alone carried it to the aristocratic party.
Young aristocrats are rarely willing to walk with a civilized stick.
"I have several thorn sticks for dog training, do you want to ask a carpenter to carve a high-quality fast-growing iron thorn civilization stick for me?"
Liszt touched his chin and had a whim.
The civilization stick in his hand is made of rock wood that is more than 100 years old, and the quality is good, but Flower Town now has fast-growing iron thorns, and then using rock and wood civilization sticks, it is not very consistent with the identity.
Immediately, he ordered someone to call the person in charge of the carpenter's shop: "Carve a civilized stick for me, take this civilized stick as a sample, and engrave the name of Zytra on it." β
Zyra, the meaning of the name is - the rise of thorns.
