Liszt's telescope was divided into long tubes and short tubes. The long tube was a telescope used to observe the moon, with a magnification of more than 30 times. The short tube was a portable telescope he was going to make for the Knight squad. It could be stretched and had a magnification of about 15 times at most.
Twenty concave and convex lenses could only form one long tube and three short tubes. The remaining lenses were unqualified.
He threw the lenses to Carter: "Mr. Carter, look around and see which lens can magnify the image. You can use it to read books."
Carter was old and his eyesight was a bit poor. Wouldn't it be nice to give him a magnifying glass?
One long tube was left in the castle; three short tubes. Liszt carried one with him, Markus' Knight squad got one, and Carl 'patrol squad got one.
The distribution was over.
Originally, Liszt intended to retain the crystal craftsman Brad with a high salary, but the other party refused without hesitation. Although the Flower Town was developing rapidly, but compared to the Coral City, the gap was still huge. It could not attract free craftsmen with good social status.
Similarly.
Isaiah's family came to Flower Town to visit him, but when Isaiah persuaded them to stay, they refused without hesitation. His son even said: "Are you kidding me? There isn't even a brothel here!"
Gort's family also came to Flower Town to visit him. They stayed for two days and then left.
After all, they were aristocrats. Their children and grandchildren had a good life, so they did not want to live in the countryside. His wife intended to settle in Flower Town, but Gort refused. The reason was very noble. Flower Town was too barren and he did not want his wife to suffer.
In fact, he was afraid that the other party would discover Freya's existence. Freya's belly was already bulging.
"Sir Lord, I heard that you have invented a telescope that can see far away?" After hearing the news, Captain Kosto hurried to the castle, "I wonder if the Flower can be equipped with a telescope? Sailing at sea requires a very good field of vision, and a telescope can provide us with great help. "
It was a very reasonable request.
Liszt was a bit hesitant. The telescope suitable for sailing was probably the long "Liszt telescope" in the castle, but it was equipment for him to explore the universe.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "Captain Kosto, go back and train your apprentice sailors first. The logging team will soon open a path to the wharf. The Flower Town's wharf is about to be established. You can familiarize yourself with the situation near the wharf first. As for the binoculars, we will have them. "
Send Kosto away.
Liszt reluctantly took out a piece of crystal and handed it to Thomas: "When the Flower Town's transport team comes back, give it to the person in charge. Tell him to ask Brad crystal artisan to carve two sets of No. 3 and No. 17 lenses." The No. 3 and No. 17 lenses were the lens models for assembling long tubes.
For Liszt, the binoculars were more like a joke.
After studying it and playing with it for a while, he actually lost interest in the telescope. Looking at the moon and stars all day long, he couldn't see any secrets of the universe.
Therefore …
He took Tremblingwoods out to inspect the work of the logging team, just to distract himself.
To the north of the dairy farm, there was a large area of thorns and shrubs. This was the area covered by thorns worm stalk. In addition to ordinary thorns, there were also fast-growing varieties of thorns, including fast-growing poisonous thorns and fast-growing thorns thorns. It was unknown if there was a follow-up to the thorns worm chain mission.
Further northeast of the thorns and shrubs was the logging team's work site.
The site was in full swing.
Thick smoke billowed.
Countless serfs were sweating as they cut down trees. Some people used axes to chop down tree trunks, some used saw blades to chop off tree branches, some used machetes to chop off branches and leaves, while others piled up tree trunks and branches together and took away the leaves and burned them on the spot.
Burning the bonfires was not only to intimidate wild beasts and World of Warcraft, but also to accumulate plant ash, which would be composted when reclaiming wasteland in the future.
Clerks and patrols shuttled back and forth among the serfs, frequently berating and cursing, urging the serfs to work hard. Gort, Isaiah, Blair, and Carl each commanded a large group of serfs to maintain order at the scene. Markus took the Knight squad to seriously patrol the periphery.
Seeing Liszt arrive, Gort trotted over: "Sir, good afternoon."
"Good afternoon, Teacher Gort." Liszt greeted, "A quarter of the town's population should be cutting down trees here. How long do you think it will take to cut down all the trees in the Thorns Ridge?"
"If we have enough tools, it will only take twenty days. No, it might only take two weeks. But we don't have enough tools, Sir. Many people share an axe, a saw blade, and a machete, which is too much of a delay. Even if the serfs respond enthusiastically to your call, they still won't be able to exert their full strength. "
"I have already had the Flower Caravan purchase tools from various cities. Iron tools are too expensive and bone tools are too brittle … I hope Father can plunder a batch of iron ore. Otherwise, the lack of iron on Coral Island will never be solved."
There were no metals, no gems, and the number of elves was also scarce.
The reason why the aristocrats were keen on fighting on the continent instead of staying on the island was often because they had no other choice. If they had foresight, they might develop technology to make up for this gap. But they didn't, so they could only plunder resources from the continent to make up for the deficiency.
Why was the Eagle Kingdom repeatedly harassed by the Sapphire Kingdom? It was because they had the White Iron Dragon, which could produce a large amount of iron ore.
Steel was probably the metal with the most practical value among all metals.
Therefore, as long as the Steel Ridge Kingdom called for war, the Sapphire Grand Duke would immediately issue an order to expand, and the aristocrats would swarm over to burn, kill, and plunder.
Liszt sometimes thought: "Why do I always feel that the Grand Duchy of Sapphire is a pirate from another world?"
Relying on their overseas establishment and well-developed fleet, they would unscrupulously attack the kingdoms on the continent. Snatch and run. Every year, he would repeat the same script. It was wonderful. Although there was no technical content, they were still successful every year. It was unknown how many times the count had been to the continent.
Little by little, he had accumulated such a large fortune on Coral Island.
"Sir, because of the logging work, the town's construction and road construction have been temporarily suspended. The autumn harvest is coming soon, and the barley settlement and wheat settlement may not have enough manpower. "
"It won't be too late to transfer people back after the harvest date is determined." Liszt suddenly thought of something and looked at Gort, "Teacher Gort, how long have you been with me to Flower Town?"
Gort was taken aback, and then said: "Sir, on March 9, the Baron of Flower Town was enfeoffed. I set out the next day and arrived at Flower Town in the afternoon. Today is September 23, six months and two weeks have passed."
"Six and a half months passed in a flash."
"But the current Flower Town is definitely not the Flower Town of six months ago, which exudes vitality everywhere."
"Yes, I am very satisfied with the development of Flower Town." Liszt rode Blackdragon, walking slowly. The world in front of him had already integrated with him. "What I am most satisfied with is the change in thinking. Teacher Gort, six months ago, you were always talking about drinking. Now, you know to finish your work first and then drink. You even delay drinking for work."
Gort smiled awkwardly: "People tend to slack off when they get older. Fortunately, I came to Flower Town and found the confidence and hard work of my youth."
"I am very pleased with the changes in you."
Liszt looked into the distance and said: "Maybe in a few days, a batch of 500 serfs will arrive. I need you to make a settlement plan. It is not enough to settle the serfs individually. I need an overall plan for the future of Flower Town – as a consultant. "
Hearing the word 'consultant'.
