"What? Your Majesty, would you like to rent our estate? The jaws of the three knights were about to drop in shock, and their mouths opened wide as they spoke loudly in unison.

The housekeeper Howard on the side no longer looked calm, his eyes were about to pop out, and he looked puzzled, looking like a clown in the circus, very funny.

"Yes! I want to rent your land and promise to pay a price that you are happy with! Edward said in a sure tone.

The serious expression on the face of a ten-year-old boy looked very funny, but everyone present couldn't laugh at all, after all, he was also the king of England at a young age. During the Tudor period, who didn't know how much power the king had, and William, as a low-level nobleman, knew the most.

"This! Your Majesty, this is a big deal, and we have to go home and discuss it! The bearded Knight Bruno was the first to speak, while the remaining two hurriedly nodded and drank.

Edward didn't want to be so slow and troublesome, so he directly offered them an exciting price.

"Knight William, your eight hundred acres of estate, I will give you eight hundred pounds a year!" Edward looked at the William Knight standing next to him and said a price that made his heart flutter!

"And Knight Bruno, your nine hundred acres of estate, I can give you nine hundred pounds a year!" The Bruno knight on the side also received a shocking price, which accelerated his heartbeat.

Edward did not spare the instigator who had stayed quietly on the sidelines, the knight of Devereau, and said to him a higher price than his current rent.

"Knight, the price I give you for fifteen hundred acres of manor is three hundred pounds higher than what you are now!"

"I can give you fifteen hundred pounds a year!" In order to give them confidence, Edward did not hesitate to offer a price far above the market.

In the face of such temptation, the three knights, you look at me, I look at you, none of them intend to be the first bird.

Seeing this, Edward knew that the meeting had failed, but he was not discouraged and relaxed. The three knights chatted happily about the anecdotes of England, but Edward played the main role of listening.

Edward then invited them to a luncheon, giving the country buns a glimpse of the royal extravagance.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Butler Howard personally sent them out, and Edward simply said goodbye to them in a friendly manner. The three knights burped contentedly, rode on their horses, and were carefully escorted by their attendants on their way home.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Edward was lying on the seat, and Lucy was massaging his shoulders with her delicate little hands, meeting Edward's questions from time to time, not to mention how refreshing. Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Your Majesty! It's me! Howard. Charles! Howard's butler's voice rang out in time, holding Edward's foul words in his throat, eliciting a coquettish laugh from the little maid Lucy.

"Come in!" Edward said helplessly, looking like he couldn't do anything about Howard.

Butler Howard saluted Edward, then turned to look at Lucy without speaking.

Edward knew what he meant, and nodded to Lucy, who also consciously left the study and closed the door before leaving.

"Your Majesty, as your retainer! I need to dissuade you from making foolish thoughts! Howard said to Edward with a serious face, like a soldier who was about to die heroically, with a hint of tragedy in his tone.

"Mr. Butler! Are you talking about renting the knights' manor that I proposed this morning? "Yes! Your Majesty, this is a terrible decision! ”

Howard said in an affirmative tone, keeping his eyes on Edward.

"Oh! My steward, this is just a whim of mine! Edward quibbled, "Besides, didn't they say yes either!" ”

"Your Majesty, you are wrong! And those nobles will think that the royal family is ready to confiscate the fiefdoms of their vassals, so that the vassals of the royal family will definitely be uneasy, which will damage the majesty of the royal family! ”

Howard's butler preached for a while, which made Edward stunned, and he couldn't imagine that the idea of killing him would cause such consequences, but fortunately it didn't work out in the end.

Although Edward already knew in his heart that he was wrong, he did not admit defeat.

"Well, sir, I already know, no more talk!" Edward's grumbling voice sounded, directly interrupting Howard's housekeeper's ramblings.

"Also, my housekeeper, you don't come for a run specifically to teach me a lesson, do you?"

"How is it possible, how dare I teach a lesson to His Majesty the Honored King?" Howard's mouth said he didn't dare, but the tone of his voice didn't sound like that.

"So, Butler Howard, what are you here for?" Edward's tone stiffened slightly.

"Your Majesty, I'm here to ask, we've finished watering all the land, what should we do next?" Howard was not intimidated by Edward, and replied calmly, but it could be heard that he had a problem with applying farm fertilizer to rye.

Hearing that Howard was rounded, Edward was not disappointed, how could a shrewd person like him be frightened!

Speaking of farm fertilizer, it is not easy for Edward to make it.

First of all, Edward built toilets in the manor, and all people were required to defecate in the toilets, and no open defecation was allowed.

Many people think that in normal times, people can water plants directly, but this is wrong.

The main thing is that human feces contain germs and insect eggs, and only after fermentation and decay, most of them are killed, reducing the germ promotion pie. And if you water it directly without fermentation and decay, the plant is likely to be rotted and burned to death.

Therefore, Edward can only be used after a few days of storage, and the storage time should not be too long, generally 6~7 days in summer, 15~20 days in winter, and should be applied as soon as possible after fermentation and decay, so as not to lose fertilizer.

In the ancient era when there was no fertilizer, the use of farm fertilizer was a thrifty and convenient way to take materials everywhere, and the effect was not bad!

The nutrients contained in farmhouse fertilizer are relatively comprehensive, and the fertilizer effect is stable and long-lasting. In addition to nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, farm fertilizer also contains calcium, magnesium, sulfur, iron and various trace elements, as well as some substances that can stimulate root growth and various beneficial soil microorganisms.

"Howard, you call a few people to get ready to chop some weeds!" Edward commanded, "Bring a few more people and get as many people as you can!" ”

"Yes! Your Majesty! Although Howard was confused, he had to do it because of the agreement made some time ago.

You guessed it! Edward was ready to make ash for the fields.
