Elkson presided over the construction of the Flame Mushroom processing workshop and cooked the eagle every day.
Glanny devoted himself to the production of the Calm Pearl.
Gort and other officials presided over the autumn harvest of Flower Town.
The town's civilians also joined the harvest team, harvesting wheat, barley, naked wheat, leveling the wasteland, picking wild fruits, picking vegetables, and collecting Tulip capsules. After autumn came a long winter of ice and snow, and all crops in Flower Town would stop growing.
"Master, this is the newly picked black nightshade today." Butler Carter brought over a plate of small black fruits.
With the blessing of the black nightshade sprite worm, the output of the black nightshade field soared, and a plate of fruit could be harvested every day. This thing tasted really good, but it was uncomfortable to eat too much of it. Liszt only tasted it occasionally and gave the rest to his subordinates.
Since the outbreak of the thorn sprite worm.
The black nightshade sprite worm has become the most useless sprite worm.
The black nightshade sprite worm has a low output and cannot be sold in bulk. It can only be used as a flavoring modifier.
However, with the example of the thorn sprite worm, Liszt will not underestimate the black nightshade sprite worm. Who knows if one day, the black nightshade sprite worm will have a big outbreak, triggering a series of tasks and evolving into a black nightshade sprite.
"You try it too."
"Thank you, Master."
After eating a few black nightshade fruits, Liszt asked, "It's almost October, and winter will come in two months. Have you started preparing the food stockpiled in the warehouse?"
"I have entrusted Captain Harpagon and Captain Sherlock to be ready to purchase newly harvested wheat at any time."
"Wheat alone is not enough. Corn, beans, salt, sugar, and so on should be purchased. Even in winter, I don't want the castle's food conditions to decline." Liszt didn't want to be wronged. "I will inform Adviser Gort to build a warehouse near the castle to store winter supplies."
Suddenly.
He thought of something. "By the way, remember to remind me to ask someone to build an ice house in Flower Town."
"Yes, Master."
Making ice with saltpeter is indeed very convenient, and it can be recycled. However, it was a pity that it would be consumed in the process of using it. Currently, out of the three hundred kilograms of saltpeter powder, only two hundred and sixty kilograms were left. A total of forty to fifty kilograms had been consumed. In another year and a half, there would be no way to make ice.
A new saltpeter mine could not be found even if one wanted to.
Therefore, in the end, it was still necessary to dig a large ice cellar and store the ice in winter for use in the coming year.
Warehouse, icehouse, falcon house, kennel, dog prison (Stupidwoman), apple table, stable, clam shell. Liszt found that the castle, which was supposed to be independent on the hillside and surrounded by green grass, was almost surrounded by all kinds of illegal buildings.
"No, the warehouse and the icehouse have to be built far away. The dog kennel will be moved to the castle's main entrance. The falcon platform can be moved to the top platform of the castle and build a third floor in the form of a loft. The apple table, the apple tree, and the giant clam shell can be considered the scenery, but the stables have to be moved a little further. "
The reason why there was an empty space around the castle.
It was to set up a circle of safety where one could not hide and prevent assassins from sneaking in.
"Not only do we have to remove the illegal buildings, but we also have to plant a circle of hedges and dig a moat. If financial and material resources permit, we also have to strengthen the castle walls, especially the main entrance, it is best to build a bridge-type gate. "
The castle relied on the terrain. The gate could be built in a very high position and then connected to the outside with a bridge. People could walk directly under the bridge.
This made it difficult for the attacker to have a large number of Knight charge at the same time, thus ensuring that the castle would not be taken in a short time.
Winning time for friendly support.
Speaking of which, Flower Town was unlikely to be attacked. After all, Liszt was the Count's son and the Tulip family's bloodline was the flag on this island. But in case of pirates, in case the pirates had to attack, a well-fortified castle could save lives.
"If I want to carefully complete the castle, I need a lot of money. I am indeed very rich, with tens of millions of fixed assets … but the liquidity, even with the support of the seafood business, is still not enough to make ends meet. It's a headache."
A castle that could have its own name.
At the very least, it had to be able to support the independent living conditions of the castle, with sufficient food, solid defenses, and a water source. The Tulip Castle built on a cliff had a fountain. Even if it was besieged by troops and horses, it could persist for at least half a year or even a year. In this regard, Flower Town's castle was very deficient.
Without a water source, it had to be fetched from the town's well.
"Should I look for an opportunity to sell some mithril, crystals, and jades? Let's talk about it after exchanging them for several thousand gold coins! "
The high-value items he could sell were a chest of magic metal mithril, a chest of dragon mineral crystals, and a chest of magic stones and jades.
As well as the remaining ten or so black pearls.
Black pearls were extremely valuable, especially the basin-sized and basketball-sized black pearls. They were excellent navigational tools, while the smaller black pearls could also be made into personal defensive accessories. It wasn't cost-effective to sell them now, giant clams weren't something that could be seen often.
Especially such a big giant clam.
The remaining mithril, crystals, and jades were all good things with a price but no market. He was also reluctant to sell them.
"Forget it, let's not think about it. It's not time for me to lie down and enjoy myself."
"I still have to fight!"
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He couldn't stay in the castle.
He simply took the Knight and Dosen, who was getting stronger and stronger. He wandered around. He went to the dog prison to see the pregnant Stupidwoman and let Dosen get intimate with her. He went to the dairy farm to see the three pregnant cows and touched their bellies to see the calves that were likely to be dragon cows.
He went to the fruit stealing monkey training ground in the oyster settlement to see the very obedient fruit stealing monkeys climbing trees to pick fragrant coconuts, and the three female monkeys with bulging bellies.
He went to the wheat settlement to see the 12 big fat pigs in the pig farm. In winter, these big fat pigs can be slaughtered for meat.
There was also the growth of each sprite worm stalk.
The day was over.
He turned around again.
Three days passed in a trance.
There was no news of finding new varieties of thorns for the time being. Liszt had been training Blessedcurls with Elkson. Blessedcurls, who had not eaten or drunk for three days, had a hoarse voice and could not sleep. His eyes were red. After seeing Liszt, his cries were particularly tragic.
"Ga Ji!"
"Ga Ji!"
The handsome appearance had already disappeared, and only a large fat bird with messy feathers remained. After calling for a long time, Liszt did not feed it any food. Blessedcurls seemed to be exhausted and fell from the platform.
Liszt was just about to go up and help it up.
Elkson stopped him. "Baron Liszt, now is a good time to defeat Blessedcurls. Don't interrupt it, or it will take more time."
"Hasn't it been subdued yet?"
"No, it hasn't bowed its head, so it's not subdued."
"Well, you continue to train the eagle." Liszt shook his head, glanced at Blessedcurls, who got up from the ground, and turned to go out. Even after walking for a long distance, he could still hear Blessedcurls' blood-curling screams.
