Chapter 0166: Juan Fu's Miserable Bird Life
Elkeson presided over the construction of the Flame Mushroom Processing Workshop and boiled eagle rolls every day.
Granny devoted himself to the production of the Dinghai Divine Pearl.
Galtai and other officials presided over the autumn harvest work in Flower Town.
The townsfolk also joined the harvesting process, harvesting wheat, barley, and rye, leveling wasteland, picking wild fruits, picking vegetables, and collecting tulips and capsules. Autumn will be followed by a long winter of ice and snow, and all crops will stop growing in the whole flower town.
"Sir, this is a newly picked nightshade today. Carter, the butler, brought over a plate of small black fruits.
With the blessing of the nightshade insect, the yield has skyrocketed, and a plate of fruit can be harvested every day. This thing tastes really good, but it is not comfortable to eat too much, Liszt only tastes it occasionally, and the rest is given to his subordinates.
Since the outbreak of thorn bugs.
The nightshade insect has become the most chicken elf worm.
It is really a low yield of nightshade, which cannot be sold in bulk, and can only be used as a concoction to improve the taste.
However, with the example of the thorn insect in the past, Liszt will not despise the nightshade insect, who knows which day, the nightshade insect will not have a big outbreak, and it will also trigger a set of serial quests to evolve into the nightshade elf.
"You can taste it too. ”
"Thank you, sir. ”
After eating a few nightshade fruits, Liszt asked, "Now that October is almost low, and winter will begin in two months, have you stocked up on food in the warehouse and started to prepare?"
"I have entrusted Captain Abagon and Captain Sherlock to be ready to buy the newly harvested wheat. ”
"Wheat alone is not enough, corn, beans, salt, sugar, etc., must be purchased, and even in winter, I do not want the food conditions in the castle to deteriorate. "Liszt doesn't want to grieve himself," I will inform Galtai's advisors to build a warehouse near the castle to store supplies for the winter. ”
Suddenly.
He thought of something: "By the way, remember to remind me that when the time comes, you will have to hire someone to build an ice cellar in Flower Town." ”
"Yes, sir. ”
Saltpeter ice is indeed very convenient, it can be taken and recycled. But unfortunately, in the process of use, there will be wear and tear, now more than 300 catties of saltpeter powder, only more than 260 catties left, the whole loss of nearly forty or fifty catties. After another year and a half, there will be no way to make ice.
New saltpeter mines, I can't find them even if I want to find them.
So, at the end of the day, it's still a matter of digging a big ice cellar and storing the winter ice in it for the next year.
Warehouses, ice cellars, falcon houses, kennels, dog prisons, apple tables, stables, and clams of shells, Liszt found that the castle, which was supposed to be independent of the hillside and surrounded by green meadows, was almost covered by all kinds of illegal buildings.
"No, the storehouse and the ice cellar must be built far away, the kennel will be moved to the gate of the castle when the time comes, and the falcon platform can be moved to the top platform of the castle to build a third floor in the form of an attic. The apple table, the apple tree, and the clams are considered to be the scenery, and the stables should be moved a little farther away. ”
The reason why there is a lot of space around the castle is reserved.
It was to set up a safe area where the Assassin could not hide his body, and prevent the Assassin from stealthily entering.
"Not only do you have to move away illegal buildings, but you also have to plant a ring of hedgerows and dig a moat. If financial and material resources permit, the castle walls should also be reinforced, especially the main gates, preferably bridge-type gates. ”
The castle relies on the topography and can be built at a high point with the gate and then connected to the outside with a bridge, which can be walked directly underneath.
This makes it difficult for a large number of knights to charge at the same time, so as to ensure that the castle will not be captured in a short time.
Time to win friendly support.
Speaking of which, it is unlikely that the town of flowers will be attacked, after all, Liszt is the son of the count, the blood of the tulip family, and the flag on this island. But in case of encountering pirates, in case the pirates have to attack, a well-fortified castle can save lives.
"If you want to complete the castle carefully, you need a lot of money, and I am indeed very rich, and I have thousands of fixed assets...... But liquidity, even with the support of the seafood business, is still unable to make ends meet, and it is a headache. ”
A castle that can have its own name.
At the very least, the castle must be able to live independently, with sufficient food, strong defenses, and water. The Tulip Fort, built on a cliff and with a fountain, can last at least half a year or even a year even if it is besieged by soldiers and horses - in this regard, the castle of Flower Town is very lacking.
There was no water source, so we had to fetch water from the town's well.
"Do you have to find an opportunity to sell some Mithril, crystals, and jade in exchange for a few thousand gold coins!"
The high-value items he can sell to the outside world are a crate of magic metal Mithril, a crate of Dragon's Ore Crystal, and a crate of magic stone jade.
and only a dozen or so black pearls remaining.
Black pearls have extremely high value, especially the black pearls with large basins and large basketballs, which are nautical weapons, and smaller black pearls can also be made into personal defense jewelry. It's not cost-effective to sell them now, and clams aren't something you can see very often.
Especially that big clams.
The rest of Mithril, crystals, and jade were all good things with no price, and he was also reluctant to sell them.
"Forget it, I don't want to do that, I'm not ready to lie down and enjoy it now. ”
"I still have to struggle!"
Thinking about it, I got angry, and I couldn't stay in the castle.
He simply took the knight and the increasingly powerful Shake Sen to wander around - go to the dog prison to see the pregnant Tu Woman, let Shake Sen make out with it, go to the dairy farm to see the three pregnant cows, and touch the calf in the belly of the ** cow, which is very likely to be a dragon cow.
Go to the fruit thief monkey training ground in Oyster Tun to see the fruit thief monkey who is very obedient in training, climb trees and pick fragrant coconut fruits, as well as three female monkeys with bulging lower abdomen.
Go to Maitun to see the 12 big fat pigs in the pig farm, and in the winter these big fat pigs can be slaughtered and eaten.
And the growth of each elf cordyceps.
The day is over.
Turn around again.
Three days passed in a trance.
There is no news about the search for a new variety of thorns, so Lister has been cooperating with Elkeson to train Juan Fu. Juan Fu, who hadn't eaten or drunk for three days, was already hoarse in his throat, couldn't sleep, and his eyes were red. After seeing Liszt, the call was particularly tragic.
"Quack!"
"Quack!"
Shenjun's appearance had disappeared, except for a large fat bird with messy feathers. Seeing that Liszt had been calling for a long time, Liszt had not fed it any food, and Juan Fu seemed to be out of strength, and fell off the falcon platform.
Liszt was just about to go up and help it.
Elkeson stepped in to stop it: "Baron Liszt, now is a good time to break the mind of Juan Fu, don't interrupt, otherwise you will have to spend more time to kill it." ”
"The way it looks, it hasn't been submitted yet?"
"No, it didn't bow its head, it wasn't a submission. ”
"Okay, you go ahead and boil the eagle. Liszt shook his head, glanced at Juan Fu who had risen from the ground, and turned to go out. After walking a long way, there was still a faint scream of Juan Fu in his ears.
"Gaga......
