Liszt didn't want to disturb the lively atmosphere of the town, but in the end he couldn't hold back, went to the business district, and then watched a burlesque performance.

It's the clown throwing balls on stage, blowing a fire, or somersault.

In his opinion, these are not new at all, but the residents of the town clapped their hands happily. It made Liszt want to go up and show them the trick of returning to the cave with three immortals, so that these people from other worlds could feel the charm of China's ancient cultural traditions.

Of course.

This can only be thought of, the aristocracy can not do things that lose their status.

Besides, in a world where magicians exist, magic doesn't seem to be magical.

After watching a scene, he left the business district and went to the town's office, so as not to make the townspeople uncomfortable—the lord was in front of them, and they couldn't let go at all, and they didn't even dare to speak loudly.

Although the people left, they always paid attention to the affairs of the caravan.

He was listening to Isaiah's report on the prices of the goods brought by the caravan, especially those related to the means of production and subsistence, which were all of his concern.

"A foal costs at least fifty silver coins, which is too high. He asked, frowning.

You know, he traded slaves with Levi, and a serf was only twenty silver coins.

"It's very expensive, my lord, Coral Island is far from the mainland, there is no suitable stocking area, and the breeding of horses has been restricted, so the price of horses has always been high. Even the price of horses on Blue Dragon Island is the same, if on the mainland, a foal may only cost a few silver coins. ”

Archipelagic countries, all of which are islands, are naturally not suitable for grazing horses.

Liszt understood this, but he didn't want to accept it for a while—he gave old Grandet three gold coins, thinking that he would be able to buy a lot of goods.

Now it seems that only six foals will be spent.

"How many cubs of livestock did the caravan bring?" he asked, feeling a little disappointed, for he had wanted to eat all the young animals brought by the caravan, but now it seemed that it was a luxury.

In addition to the fact that he can buy it, I'm afraid that ordinary residents don't have the financial resources to buy it.

"Five foals, two calves, three lambs, eight piglets, six little dogs, five kittens, and ten rabbits. ”

"I gave Old Grandet three gold coins, and it seemed to be of no avail, and I couldn't afford to buy a few livestock. At this moment, he desperately wanted to sell the black pearl and buy livestock for money - meat is the most nutritious food, and he wanted to eat meat every day, not seafood.

The territory does not raise livestock, where does he, the lord, get to eat meat every day!

"Three gold coins can't buy much livestock, but they can buy many other goods, and the caravan brings a lot of specialties from other places. ”

"But I told old Grandet that the first purchase of horses, five foals, two gold coins and fifty silver coins, would have used up all the funds of the castle. Liszt thought that he still had two gold coins, and that he might have to take them out, and spend them today, leaving a few livestock.

Isaiah smiled and said, "My lord, I have looked at the transaction records, and old Grandet has only bought two foals. The other three were bought by someone else. ”

"Who?"

"John Flattan bought one, and you must still be impressed. ”

"It turned out to be the farmer who planted tomatoes, and I rewarded him with a gold coin, which he obviously could afford. What about the other two?"

"The Blairs bought one, and Marcus bought one, and the money was lent to him by Galtai. ”

Liszt's mood turned cloudy, and he bought all the horses, although they were not owned by the castle, but as long as they remained in Flower Town, and he could requisition them as long as he needed.

But soon he laughed again.

Feeling that his vision was too shallow, he only focused on the little livestock brought by this caravan, and when he sold the black pearl for money, he could go to other cities to buy livestock—he had originally planned to do so. As long as you have gold coins, are you afraid that you won't be able to buy what you want?

"Isaiah, how much do you think the caravan will be sold today?"

"I guess there could be six gold coins. ”

"The transaction volume of six gold coins, I believe that many traders in the caravan are already preparing for the next time. ”

"Of course, traders are like flies, and wherever they can make money, they are always indispensable. When he spoke, Isaiah had a natural contempt. It was an unparalleled sense of superiority of the aristocracy over the plebeian class, accompanied by a desire to combat the rising momentum of the plebeians.

The aristocracy did not allow any class to shake its dominance.

Merchants sometimes made the nobles feel provoked - some of them even had more wealth than the nobles. Money can be channeled, and there are many cases of aristocrats who are about to go bankrupt and marry their daughters to merchants, or marry the daughters of merchants to become noble ladies, similar humiliating incidents.

Liszt smiled.

For the merchant class, his ideas were in line with those of the aristocracy - to both support and strike.

......

Return to the castle.

Caught up for lunch, although he had told the kitchen that only one steak was needed, not too much. But when it came time to eat, it was still the same as usual, with meat, vegetables, mushrooms, seafood, milk, and white bread.

"Mrs. Abi didn't go shopping?"

"Sir, Mrs. Abi went out, but half an hour later she was back in the kitchen. Maybe she is not used to the lively scene of the town, or she can't let go of the kitchen work, she is too dedicated and always busy. ”

"You should tell her that I'm not thinking about a salary increase for the time being, so she doesn't have to keep herself busy, she has to have her own life. ”

Although adapted to the aristocracy and fell in love.

Liszt still retains the goodness of modern people, and he wants even a servant to have a life of his own, rather than dedicating himself entirely to the lord. Life should not only have work, work, work, but also its own joys and sorrows, laughter and laughter, and a family.

Carter waited for Liszt to dine.

On the other hand, he said: "For the cook, the kitchen is life, and for the servant, the castle is life, sir, you don't always have to think about us." The sun creeps from east to west every day, the servants are busy from morning to night, and life is for everyone to do their part. ”

This is very philosophical.

Liszt was speechless.

There is still a gap between his ideas and this era, and he has the pursuit of freedom in his bones, but the concept of class has been imprinted in the depths of everyone's hearts in another world.

If a servant doesn't work, is it still called a servant?

If the aristocracy doesn't enjoy it, is it still called an aristocracy!

Therefore, what Carter said, he did not mean to refute or correct. On the contrary, it may be a little difficult to get over in conscience, but it is quite beautiful in the heart - if everyone thinks so, the life of the noble lord will be more stable and comfortable - these are great good people!

I just finished lunch, and I'm going to tease Shake Sen and Juan Fu, and then go to take a nap.

Galtai suddenly rode over from the town, and when he saw Liszt, he directly handed over a metal bottle in the shape of a wine bottle: "My lord, look at this, it was picked up by the fishermen of Oyster Tun from the sea, they thought it was made of gold, but I have checked, it does not look like gold." ”
