Chapter 0041 If you want to get rich, build a road first
Looking at the problem calmly and objectively, Liszt was freed from his unrealistic illusions about dragons, and felt that the information of the so-called invisible dragon was probably not a good reward.
As previously inferred.
One, the smoke task is doing popular science - but there is no reason at all, as a golden finger, it shouldn't be so boring.
Second, there are invisible dragons nearby that can be captured - if it is true, it is definitely exciting news, but Liszt does not have any strength to capture dragons at all, and many of those countries that have dragons start capturing from small dragons, and adult dragons are really unable to parry. But even a small dragon, with all the knights on the entire coral island, can't beat it.
Three, the invisible dragon came all the way to deliver equipment - Liszt didn't think that his dragon fate was already so good.
Fourth, I'm afraid that there is an invisible dragon that wants to launch an attack on Flower Town.
The fourth corollary, which is undoubtedly the most likely, is that dragons attacking human villages and towns are no longer big news, otherwise there would be no such profession as "dragon slayer warriors". In the major knight novels, the dragon slayer warrior is the most popular protagonist, second only to the dragon knight.
Basically, a good knight novel, the protagonist is bound to become a dragon knight, or slay a dragon, and then he is bound to marry a beautiful princess.
"So, the rewards for these two missions tell me that I want to resist a dragon and strive to become the protagonist of the knight's novel, the dragon slayer warrior Liszt?"
Liszt looked in the mirror and smiled: "So, the big dragon is hanging, where is the princess?"
I have mixed feelings, both worried that the result of my speculation will come true, and I feel that this is not possible. After thinking about it repeatedly, he felt that he didn't need to worry about it, complete the task first, and see what kind of clues would be given in the final reward, and then make a decision.
If there is really an invisible dragon invasion, he can't resist it, it doesn't mean that he can't ask for help.
Once this news is given to the Sapphire family, it is believed that it should not be difficult to exchange for a marquis title - this is the highest title that the duchy can divide.
Calling Galtai, he immediately explained the task: "This corn straw does not appear suddenly, it must be a bird or the wind that blows the seeds." Teacher Galtai, mobilize all the idle farmers to search between the various tuns, and be sure to find more corn grass. ”
Galtai did not understand the task very well: "Liszt, this corn grass is important?"
"Of course, it is a very nutritious pasture, and it is even more suitable than alfalfa grass as feed for horse farms and dairy farms...... In any case, a variety of different varieties of pasture grass can make the livestock grow faster. ”
"Since it is so valuable, I immediately arranged for people to search for it, and I will not let go of every corner. ”
As he was talking, Liszt suddenly saw a group of people outside the castle, walking by the gate with neat steps, and walked in the direction of Thorn Ridge to the south.
"Mr. Galtai, is that the new patrol?"
"Yes, your servant knights have been of great help, and the bastards of the patrol did not obey my orders at first, but after a few fights, their tempers quickly subsided. ”
"Well done, discipline is the first priority of the patrol, Mr. Galtai, the management of the patrol team must continue to be strengthened. I have a couple of ideas that need to be implemented...... The patrol team needs to take charge of the security of the town and the towns, and the town pays for it, uniforms and codes of conduct. ”
Liszt said some general ideas, he planned to build the patrol into a police station, for the time being, only responsible for public security, and in the future, even the management of household registration.
In this way, you can have a thorough insight into everything in the town, and no person with a suspicious identity can gain a foothold in Flower Town.
"But there are few Nalda in town, and Isaiah has complained to me more than once that he can't do anything without Narda. ”
There were not many gold coins in Liszt's castle, and the butler had reported to him that there were about one hundred and fifty more.
However, the castle is now very "fat", and Liszt's red-blooded sword alone is worth one or two thousand gold coins, as well as the annual profits of the black tulip industry, as well as a large amount of materials exchanged for assimilation.
"I will allocate fifty gold coins from the castle to maintain the development of the town, and this part of the gold coins will be deducted from the town's own tax every year. ”
"Fifty nardas, that's too much, Liszt, I've checked, the town's taxes in a year are only a pitiful fifteen naldas. ”
"Fifty is not much, Mr. Galtai, tell Isaiah and Blair that the next Flower Town will enter a busy period, and they need to be prepared. ”
"As you wish!"
......
The development of Flower Town, Liszt is indeed not just talking.
He was already working on a map of the town, a very abstract topographical map, and basically, the town of flowers resembled a right triangle.
The two right-angled sides are the Thorn Ridge, and the hypotenuse is the east coast.
The town is located in the center of the triangle, the castle is near the right angle, and the dairy farm and the barley tun occupy the other two corners.
"If you want to get rich, you must first build roads. Holding a quill pen, he focused on drawing the dirt road from Thorn Ridge to the town, "This main road, I need to build a gravel road, there is no cement, but there is a lot of sand, and there is a lot of sea sand on the east coast, which can be pulled to pave the road." ”
Then there are the dirt roads between the tuns, which can be paved with sand.
However, sand paving alone is not a good choice, the stagnant water is difficult to drain, and it will be poured into the shoes, making it sand everywhere. But it's a pity that there are not many stones near Flower Town, and it can't be mixed with sand and gravel, so you can only build a sand road, which is more convenient than a mud road that can't be walked when it rains.
Building roads is a big thing, and another big thing is farming.
Elves can affect the growth of crops, but they can't rely on elves all of them, and when there were no elves in Flower Town, farmers in the town still had to farm.
"Scientific farming is only the first step in letting the people know to fertilize their crops. But that's not enough, there is also a need to build a number of agricultural tools to increase the productivity of farmers, so that more wasteland can be cultivated to grow crops. A bunch of iron was exchanged from Fort Tulip and Falcon, and the blacksmith shop could be contacted. ”
These two things need to be done urgently, but the results are not visible now.
But there is another thing that can be quickly achieved - catching the sea.
On the back of the fire dragon horse, Liszt looked at the endless sea in front of him, and the sea water mixed with the characteristic salty smell came to his nose. The waves hit the beach, reflecting the sun, and for a while the eyes were full of small stars.
Thomas took Shaker by the hand and let him have fun on the beach.
It grows so fast that you can see it grow up almost every day, and now it's the size of a rural dog. I don't know if it's too good to eat, this guy already has traces of magic on his body, and he may not need to be an adult for it to release magic.
Liszt was ready to train it quickly to prevent the wild from being too heavy and hurting people.
"My lord, is there anything worth paying attention to on the east coast, there are no deep bays here, and they are not suitable for a dock. Marcus looked at the waves, but still didn't feel any riches in the sea.
Liszt pointed to the reefs that could be seen from time to time under the waves: "Mr. Marcus, do you see those reefs, they are full of food, and when the tide is low, farmers can pick up this food...... Compared to the freshwater fish we usually eat, these are seafood. ”
