Chapter XXXV. Recommendations
"Thank you, Viscount, and Baron Ivors. ”
Kaichi turned to Baron Ivers and thanked him, explaining, "But my parents are used to Sainz Town, and they don't really want to change places, otherwise, I will definitely consider your town." I had planned to have the opportunity to take them with me to Moshacher, but they were used to staying in familiar places. ”
If it weren't for Baron Ivers's assistance just now, Sainsbury probably wouldn't have taken it so easily, and he would have to shirk a few more words and sell a few more favors.
But this is also human nature, the viscount couple has also taken care of their family over the years, and Flower has not forgotten a gold coin from the workshop they cooperated, even if it is for the sake of Flower and Dale's face, Jia Yi will not have any other ideas.
Jia Yi found an opportunity, and said: "Since you want to build a city, Viscount, it is better to build a square in the center of the city, and then build a bell tower, and now many places have begun to build bell towers, not only can be used as an observatory, but also can unify the clock time in the town." ”
He didn't say a word, in addition to these, he can also extend the detection module of the mage tower to be built to the bell tower, and then the detection scope of the town can be greatly expanded, even if there are really people who have ideas about the town, they can also give early warning.
Pendulum clocks have been around for many years, and pocket watches have also appeared, but the timing of these things is a trouble, especially pendulum clocks, because the latitude and longitude are different, and the time of each place of the same swing arm length is different, which needs to be adjusted artificially. Although the pocket watch does not rely on the pendulum to keep time, but the accuracy actually has a lot of error, a month, a few minutes or even ten minutes are very normal, these need to be timed.
Now you have to use a sundial to align the time, which is now the most accurate, unified and easiest time calibration scheme, but this thing is not convenient, if you can have a clock tower, the clock tower time and the sundial calibration, then the people in the town can use the clock tower to calibrate the time.
In this way, you don't have to run to the sundial to calibrate the time, as long as you look up, you can see it, you can calibrate the time anytime, anywhere, or even just listen to the hour on the clock tower to calibrate the time.
No matter what time it is, a standard time is not small for production and life.
However, Sainsbury did not agree immediately, but said: "This, you have to think about it carefully, if you want to build a square in the center of the town, it is more troublesome." ”
The original planning of the town was relatively poor, or even no planning, in the center of the town were the shops of some small nobles and wealthy merchants in the town, these people were considered dignitaries in the town, and it was nothing to let one or two move away, but it would be more troublesome to let them all move away, and he could not offend most of the nobles in the territory at once, even if he was the lord.
And the most important thing is the problem of money, the price of building a bell tower is not cheap, and it can be built for a long time to build a city wall, although he is ready to build a city, but in fact, it is still more difficult to build a city at once, let alone build such a bell tower.
At the end of the dinner, Ivers came to Jiayi's side, and Jiayi thanked the other party again: "Your Excellency, I just want to thank you for inviting me. ”
Ivers smiled and said, "Master Jiayi doesn't have to be polite, what I just said is also a bit sincere, if you are willing to come, even if you want to choose my lord's mansion as a new residence, there is no problem." ”
Ivers is different from Sainsbury, he mainly lives in the manor outside the town, there are very few people in the town, and his lord's house is not much built, so it is not distressing to let it out.
After saying a few words, Ivers said in a low voice: "I still have to think about Master Jiayi's ring, this thing is very useful, if there is any new product in the future, you must take care of me." ”
said and smiled obscenely at Jiayi.
Unexpectedly, he just helped Jia Yi, and it turned out to be because of the Xiongfeng Ring.
He may think that Jia Yi is a fellow believer.
When he went back, Flower arranged for a carriage to send Jia Yi and them back, but Jia Yi did not refuse, but thought that there were still a lot of things missing at home.
Soon back at home, as soon as Cargill saw Erica, he told her what Jia Yi had said at the table, saying that Jia Yi was going to let the family build a new house.
Erica was a little dissatisfied, and said to Jiayi: "Jiayi, isn't the current house very good? You can't live at home for long, isn't it a waste to build a new house?" ”
Erica is used to frugality, and she always feels uneasy about not having a little money in her hands, even after all these years, the family has made a lot of money.
Jia Yi said: "Over the years, the workshop in which Fflower and his family have co-owned should have made a lot of money, and what to keep it for, if the money is not spent, it is equivalent to not existing." And in the future, Cargill and Donna will get married and come back to the guest's house, and they will not be able to live in the guest's house, and the family must also prepare a horse house, carriages and war horses are necessary, and these current houses can't fit in. ”
Jiayi persuaded Erica that because the money was the proceeds of the workshop that Jiayi and Flower collaborated on, Erica always felt that it was not the family's public property, so she kept it away and never used it.
Cargill nodded on the side, agreeing with Jiayi's words, of course he likes big houses, and he also wants a war horse, and now he uses all the horses in the barracks for exercise, and he doesn't have a horse of his own.
Now there is no place to put the horse in the house, and it can't be put in the yard, because it is easy to contaminate the bread. The family's bread business has been in business for more than 10 years, and it has already made a reputation and formed a certain brand value.
Erica looked at the yard and said, "I think it's a good yard, everyone is used to coming here to buy bread, and if they change places, they won't get used to it." ”
"No, it's good to stay here in the bakery, the new house is only to live in, how to say that I have achieved some success in studying magic now, I should have a decent mansion, and Cargill is also very confident in breaking through to become a knight, soon we should call him knight master." ”
Jiayi talked about himself and Cargill, and Erica couldn't find a reason to refuse, although she Jiayi didn't know how long she could live at home.
Seeing that Erica had loosened, Kaichi said again: "There are my shares in Flower's various processing workshops, although there has been no problem with Flor, but we should also involve people in these things, at least check the accounts, which reassures everyone." I want Sister Donna to come back from Wickham City and help manage the property. What do you think, Sister Nana?"
In the last sentence, he asked Donna, who was stunned for a moment by what Jia Yi said, and before he could react, Cargill on the side said, "How big is the workshop you work with? Is it necessary to let Sister Nana come back?"
Because the proceeds sent by Flower had never been used, Cargill didn't know what the profits were, and Giorgio didn't know it very well, but he still knew a rough idea.
He looked at Cargill with disdain and said, "I don't know exactly how much, but the annual dividends are always close to thousands of gold coins, imperial standard gold coins." ”
"It's... So much?" Cargill stammered when he spoke, he had never owned more than 10 gold coins, and the most expensive thing on his body was the dress on his body, which cost more than 10 gold coins, but this was bought by Erica and the others together, and the money had not passed through Cargill's hands at all.
Erica made a simple calculation in her heart, and said: "In the past two years, I have received more and more money, and now there are about 900 gold coins a year, and the money in the first two years is less, and it has been increasing every year in the past two years, and there are 4 or 5,000 thousand gold coins in total." ”
Erica was even startled when she said it, she had saved so much money unconsciously, and she felt at this time that it was really necessary for Jia Yi to ask for a new residence.
At least in terms of money, they are no longer the same small family they used to be, but Erica and they still can't turn around for a while.
