Chapter 0012: Flower Town Census

The elven worm had not yet been bred, so it was impossible for Liszt to wait here stupidly, and after arranging the people on duty, he returned to the castle. Flower Town is in contact with the outside world, and there is only one road across Thorn Ridge, which is rarely visited.

Only when the Count came to collect the taxes, a caravan would come with the knights.

Now that Flower Town has become Liszt's domain, no one has come to collect taxes, and I am afraid that the caravan will not want to come. So no one would have the idea of fighting elven bugs at all.

As for the residents of Flower Town, no one dared to fight the idea of elf bugs.

The Elven Worm is the darling of nature, and it will only make master-slave contracts with humans with magical powersβ€”maybe Warcraft can too, but Warcraft doesn't have that idea.

Magic, which refers to vindictiveness and magic, manifests different essences and is the same.

Flower Town, the people with magical powers, Liszt, Marcus, Galtai, these three people. Marcus and Galtai have names and surnames on Coral Island, and even if they steal the elven worms, they can't escape. On Coral Island, no one dares to touch the things of the Tulip family, and Liszt is a member of the Tulip family.

So the safety of the peanut elf worm does not need to be worried.

He came to his study, closed the door, and waited for a moment for the smoke to appear, and after repeated exploration, the pattern of the appearance of the smoke had been fully mastered, and he only needed to calm down and see it.

Sure enough.

A minute later.

A twisted snake text appeared in front of him.

"Complete the quest and reward a Peanut Spirit Bug. ”

"As I thought, the Peanuts Pixie was the reward for the previous mission...... This smoke quest that appeared somehow doesn't seem to be able to conjure up rewards out of thin air, and the rewards are all real or about to happen...... The sublimation of vindictiveness is probably my accumulation, and the peanut worm should have appeared. ”

However, without the Smoke Mission, these rewards would probably be wasted.

He probably has to be a trainee knight, and the peanut worm will die quietly.

At this time, the distorted smoke snake text, new content has appeared.

"Mission: How can the lord of the territory not even know the number of the lords, please complete a census of the territory to know the basic situation of the inhabitants. Reward: New variety tulips. ”

"Census? Isn't that what I'm going to do, it seems that the smoke mission is updating the content based on my actual situation...... New varieties of tulips, what does this mean, is it to give me a potion?" Liszt guessed.

The growth of the tulip family is because of the tulip.

Tulips are not just a flower, they are potions – magical herbs. Potions are important auxiliary materials to assist in the cultivation of magic and fighting spirit, and the potion in tulips, in Liszt's memory, can sell for ten gold coins at a sky-high price.

The new variety of tulips, in case of a magic potion, is definitely a big killer to revitalize the economy.

Even if it is not a potion, contributing to the Tulip Castle and assimilating the family's Tulip Elves will increase the evolution and development potential of the Elves.

"Then, the next step is to vigorously supervise the census! What is so tricky about a small town with a population of at most one or two thousand, Galtai really disappointed me, and I really can't supervise it myself. ”

One or two thousand people, not much larger than a school in Liszt's hometown, Liszt, who was the student president of the college, still has a lot of trust in his own ability.

......

But for Galtai, it was a very difficult task.

At the time of the handover, he asked the former councillor, a knight sent by the Earl, who had only done one thing in Flowerstown - collecting taxes.

The knight didn't care about anything else, and even the knight himself barely came to Flower Town, so he asked one of his servants to manage it on his behalf.

Here, the Knight of Hu also only does one thing - collects taxes, and does nothing else.

Taxes from Flower Town, including peanuts, milk, wheat, barley, oats, tomatoes, and tulips. The Earl of Coral Island collects a tax every three months, taking most of the crops that Flower Town does not produce much. After the knight collected the tax, he no longer took care of the town of flowers.

In the middle of nowhere, how can there be a bustling Coke in Coral City.

So, sitting in the dilapidated office room of the town, looking at his only four clerks and six patrol members, Galtai felt that the census was an impossible task.

"Haven't any of you ever read a book, read a word?

A clerk was embarrassed and said, "My lord, there is no school in the town, and we have never left the town......"

The patrolman with a red rosacea said: "Maybe the old leatherman is literate, he came from another island, I saw a book in his house, such a thick and thick book, I also turned it, there are villain paintings in it." But the old cobbler beat me, he was a blind man, his shoes were very strong, and he beat people very hard. ”

A blind man, Galtai didn't even think about it, and ignored the old cobbler.

Since there were no literate people, he could only say: "You should be able to count, you go to a tun by yourself, and count me how many households and people there are in the tun!"

It was supposed to be an easy task, but as the day passed, when the clerks and patrolmen came back to report, Galtai wanted to go crazy.

He scolded loudly: "What, there are 18 households and 56 people in Peanut Tun? Mr. Teacup, are you making me laugh!"

Mr. Teacup, whose full name is David Teacup, is a clerical clerk, with a tangled face: "My lord, I don't have it, I counted it several times, I don't know if it's right or not, it's different every time." ”

There are 92 people in 23 households in Peanut Tun, which is the number counted by Galtai himself when Liszt rescued the peanut field.

He really couldn't figure out why David Teacup could count 56 people in 18 households?

Don't think about it.

The number of households in the other tun must also be nonsense.

Thinking of this, Galtai waved his hand weakly: "Okay, don't report it, you can keep the numbers for yourself." Go and get my horse here, I'm going to see Baron Liszt at the castle. ”

Riding to the castle, Galtai complained to Liszt with an exaggerated face: "You don't know at all, those clerical clerks and patrol members can't even count one to ten! I can't rely on them to complete the census, Liszt, I have written a letter just waiting to be sent, maybe we can wait for them to arrive, and then come to the census." ”

"When will that be?"

"Don't be in a hurry, Liszt, we have plenty of time, don't we. ”

"I can't wait. Liszt tapped his finger on the table, "Mr. Carter, is there anyone in the castle who is literate?"

Carter bowed slightly and said, "Master, I can write and read, Thomas can too, well, Mrs. Mawson should be able to do the same." ”

"Then please ask Mrs. Mawson and Thomas to come over, and help me call Mr. Marcus and my four knights, who I remember all writeing. ”

When everyone had arrived, Liszt announced in public: "Now, let us put aside what we have at hand and assist me in completing the census of Flower Town." In the town, Shiitake Tun, Peanut Tun, Tomato Tun, Barley Tun, Wheat Tun, Flower Farm, Dairy Farm, each person is responsible for a tun. ”
