The atmosphere of the banquet was harmonious.
Madame Penelope was particularly active, and the old lady's body was no longer so strong, but she was always in a good mood. Although she didn't know that Liszt was a dragon knight, her son had already been determined to be the Marquis of Oxtail, and her grandson was also very likely to become the Marquis of Ironhoof Island, so how could she be in a bad mood.
I am afraid that the women of the Grand Duchy of Sapphire are more noble than she is now, and there is no one else except the Grand Duchess and the two princessesβeven the two princesses are not as good as this old lady.
It is true that during the reign of the Grand Duke, the status of the princess was honored.
But once the eldest prince succeeds to the throne, the princess is just two sisters who have already married, and when the eldest prince has his own offspring, the current princess status will be even lower. Estranged from generation to generation, the princesses either blended into the fiefdom lords or the blue-blooded nobles, and it was impossible for them to continue to cling to the Sapphire family.
She ate the fluffy steamed eggs and teased, "We have to pay attention to one thing next, I'm afraid there will be many big nobles who will bring their daughters to visit Coral Island." β
"It is really important to take good care of it, this is a major event in Liszt's life. Lady Mary said.
Loria also smiled and agreed: "Family background, appearance, and conduct must be carefully investigated and considered, and the most important thing is Liszt's own choice." β
Liszt just ate his share of dinner, and did not deal with the marriage that the three ladies were worried about. He had no desire for a noble lady, and with his current status, he did not need to rely on marriage to strengthen himself.
The Count knew about Liszt's identity as a dragon knight.
Therefore, he knew Liszt's choice of marriage partner, and said directly: "You don't need to worry about this matter, no matter what celebrity lady comes to visit, let Liszt make his own decision, understand." In his opinion, Liszt, who has a dragon, is better off marrying a princess to meet his status.
Dragon Knight, the combat power of the top of the world, has always been the best choice for princesses of various countries.
"You are now the Marquis of Oxtail, and you have the final say in the Tulip family. Madame Penelope said nonchalantly, "It's always up to you to make your own minds, and I don't see you making any good choices." β
After speaking, he glanced at Lady Mary slightly, and the meaning was self-evident.
Madame Marry smiled, as if she had not understood the subtext of Madame Penelope's words.
......
So.
After the dinner.
The Earl and Liszt entered the study again to discuss in detail: "Since you have become a dragon knight, it should not be a short time to get the dragon, when did you start?"
"Leo was discovered on Dark Horse Island, it is a growing baby dragon, but it is very powerful as an elemental dragon. Basically, since I was promoted to Sky Knight, I have been cultivating with Leo, so my strength will increase by leaps and bounds. β
"Leo is the dragon?"
"Yes. β
"No wonder I lost to you so badly in that actual combat drill. It seems that because of the defeat to the dragon knight, the earl was quickly relieved of the original frustration, and he can already talk about the fiasco, "I really can't imagine that the Tulip family would have a dragon knight." β
Liszt smiled: "The knight is glorious. β
The Earl was silent for a moment, then smiled: "The knight is glorious. β
Then he asked: "Leo is still a baby dragon, what are your plans, the growth cycle of dragons is based on a hundred years." β
"I'm groping for the cultivation method of the Dragon Knight, in fact, the best way is to get the Dragon Knight Fighting Qi Secret Book from the Grand Duke, so that I can refer to the cultivation method of the first Grand Duke and quickly improve my strength...... Now I can only explore independently, and the progress is slow. β
"The Grand Duke will definitely not give away the Dragon Knight Fighting Spirit Cheats easily. β
"I don't expect the Grand Duke, as long as he can tolerate me to develop my strength steadily, I will leave the Grand Duchy of Sapphire and go to find other overseas islands to build a state. β
"You're going to build a country overseas?"
"You can't overthrow the Sapphire family and rob the Grand Duchy of Sapphire to establish a country, the Grand Duke didn't abuse the Tulip family, I don't want to do this kind of betrayal of the lord. "Although the windfall profits of war once drove Liszt to fight on the battlefield, the basic rules still need to be followed.
The Sapphire family did not target the Tulip family, so the Grand Duke was always the lord of the earl, and betraying the lord as a follower was already an immoral act that was spurned, and if the lord was killed again, the reputation would be completely stinking.
Even if they are afraid of the strength of the dragon raising family in the future, people dare not say it clearly, and they will still insult the family as the killer behind their backs.
"It's not easy to build a country from scratch, at least you need the kingdom to support you from behind, and I thought you would choose to build a country on the continent. β
"I prefer to develop on islands, many people think they are desolate, but for me it is not difficult to develop islands. β
"It's not easy to develop a country, you have to realize that, especially since the fire dragon is an elemental dragon, which does not help much in the production of resources. β
Resources, as long as Liszt takes down the invisible dragon again, there will be no shortage at all.
Even if there is only one dragon, Leo really can't develop productivity: "Father, I think the elemental dragon also has a strong production potential. I have already explored a lot of preliminary ways to use the fire dragon, and at present, the power of the fire dragon is used in glassmaking, charcoal calcination, and brick and pottery on Black Horse Island. β
With a little bit of exploration, the power of the fire dragon is the propulsion from agriculture to industry, after all, this is equivalent to unlimited energy.
If steam engines, internal combustion engines, and the like can be developed, the industrial revolution could start at any time.
However, the industrial revolution required too much energy, and Liszt, who is now a dragon knight, enjoys the powerful power brought by the dragon knight, and has little motivation to promote the industrial revolution. He wants to ride a dragon to explore this wonderful world and discover all the mysteries.
In this way, father and son outlined the country that would belong to Liszt in the future.
However, no matter how beautiful the blueprint is, it must be built step by step, and the most important thing at present is to ensure that Liszt can develop steadily until the day of the founding of the country.
"Father, I am not going to see the Grand Duke, I hope that you will deal with the Grand Duke and dispel the idea of the Grand Duke trying to recruit me as a follower. Otherwise, even if the Grand Duke does not snatch Leo, the dragon knights of other kingdoms will launch a dragon slaying war against me, just like the founding of the first Grand Duke back then. β
"Don't worry, it's just a little greedy infamy...... I will tell the Grand Duke directly that I need you to help the Tulip family develop in order to gain a foothold on Iron Shoe Island, and at least for ten years you will not have to swear allegiance to the Grand Duke...... Is 10 years enough for you to develop to the point of self-preservation?"
Liszt nodded: "It won't be long before I will shake this sea, ten years is more than enough...... Father, as long as I succeed in founding the country, and the family will be separated in the future, the Tulip family will have the status of Marquis of Bull in the Grand Duchy of Sapphire, this is my promise. β
The aristocracy pays attention to etiquette, even between father and son, after the separation of the feudal and the family, the interests must be the guide.
When the earl heard this, he patted Liszt's shoulder with satisfaction: "Good!"
