Looking at the contents of the smoke Serpentines in front of him, Liszt frowned deeply.
"Mission: The female monkeys in the fruit stealing monkey training ground are about to give birth. The fruit farmers' skills in picking fragrant coconuts will come in handy, but natural reproduction is not as fast as wild capture. Please expand the size of the monkey group to 30. Reward: a thief who spies on the lord. "
There was no problem with the content of the mission itself, and it was not difficult to expand the monkey group. If you buy monkeys from other places, as long as you pay enough money, there will always be hunters who catch monkeys and sell them.
But the reward puzzled him. "A thief who spies on the lord, what does this want?"
He had always believed that the Flower Town was a paradise on the Coral Island. With the protection of the Tulip Family's bloodline, no one would have any ideas about the Flower Town.
But this mission reward was directed at Liszt himself.
There was a thief who was ready to spy on him.
"Is it to remind me that there is a thief who is going to harm me?" Liszt shook his head, not believing this possibility. "Obviously, the smoke mission will not be so straightforward. Perhaps, this is the same as the invisible dragon chain mission? It is a reward for the invasion of the invisible dragon, but in fact, it is a space gem. "
With his exploration and knowledge of the smoke mission, this possibility is very high.
"But in any case, the security and defense of the territory must be strengthened. Although the essence of the smoke mission is to reward me, if there is a thief, I will have to bear the loss myself … The smoke mission is just a choice of fate. I am afraid it will not work if I am not prepared."
He informed the caravan to buy monkeys.
He summoned Carl and Romm and ordered them to strengthen the management of the patrols and insect protection teams and pay strict attention to all movements in the territory.
Markus was in charge of the work on Black Horse Island, so he temporarily let the two retainer Knight and Xavier maintain the castle's patrol security.
He also told the butler, Carter, to pay attention to check the people entering and leaving the castle, whether they were servants, territorial officials, or officers.
Once there was a suspicious person trying to sneak into the castle, he was to be notified immediately.
"Master, are you aware of something?" Carter was puzzled by Liszt's orders and seemed a little nervous.
Liszt nodded: "The Flower Town's development is very rapid. In less than a year, it has already changed its appearance. If it were any other territory, I would also have some thoughts that I shouldn't have. The winter snow is about to descend, and I don't want anything unpleasant to happen at the last moment. "
"I understand. I will strictly instruct the servants to protect the safety of the castle."
"Yes."
Liszt replied absent-mindedly.
He walked to the window and looked at the gloomy sky outside.
The temperature had begun to drop and the cold current had arrived. The sunny days of Flower Town were about to pass, and the annual two-month-long ice and snow covered the town.
He looked into the distance and saw a field of black nightshade.
At the edge of the black nightshade field, a group of serfs were working in full swing. They were building an ice cellar. Building an ice cellar wasn't easy, as it required a lot of construction skills to build an underground cellar that could store ice cubes. More importantly, the construction process would cost a lot of gold coins.
Liszt dared to build an ice cellar, of course, because he had a profitable business and was full of confidence.
For this reason, he contacted Tulip Castle and invited the island's master craftsmen and architects to preside over the construction of the ice cellar. This architect, Mbappe Gravel, was a distant relative of Viscount Jonas Gravel of Gravel Castle. It was he who presided over the construction of the magnificent Tulip Castle.
After coming to Flower Town, he took a fancy to Dosen's Rockthorns at first glance.
"Baron Liszt, with Dosen's Rockthorns, the difficulty of building an ice cellar will be greatly reduced and the speed will be greatly accelerated. This is a natural cellar support pillar."
The Rockthorns released by Dosen each reached a height of 2.5 meters, sharp at the top and thick at the bottom, with the thickest reaching a diameter of about 40 centimeters. It could release at least two hundred Rockthorns a day. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a small Rock Dragon.
Dosen Avenue has long been completed, and Rockthorns are still produced every day, almost piling up into a mountain.
Therefore, in the future, if Liszt wants to build a new castle, there is no shortage of materials. Then again, the basalt on Black Horse Island is also a good building material.
"This year, I will build three ice rooms for your cellar, which is almost enough. If you want to continue to expand, you can wait until next year. As long as you have money, you can build any big ice cellar. The ice cellar of Tulip Castle has twenty-five ice rooms. "Mbappe Gravel did not care much about this small project.
He only occasionally came to supervise the work, and the serfs and his apprentices were working.
The ice room is a room in the ice cellar used to store ice. A standard ice room can store 300 cubic meters of ice, which is equivalent to the size of a house of 100 square meters.
Three ice rooms, 900 cubic meters, plus a little saltpeter left, there is no need to worry about ice in Flower Town next summer.
When Carter brought him a cup of coffee.
Liszt took his eyes back from the window, sat back in his chair, and smiled a little self-deprecatingly, "Mr. Carter, do you think we are like squirrels going through the winter? When autumn comes, we start looking for food to hide and eat in the winter."
Carter responded a little playfully, "I think squirrels are a very smart little animal. Other animals can only starve during the winter, but they can hide in their caves and eat a little of their own hard-earned food every day. This kind of life is actually what the civilians of the town look forward to. "
He went on to say, "Your arrival has made Flower Town rich and brought them the life they want."
Liszt quite likes to listen to this kind of flattery.
Although he is no longer pure, and all the interests are based on himself and his aristocratic identity, he thinks that he has really made the civilians of Flower Town live a good life.
It is natural for the people to thank him, respect him, and worship him.
If you don't have these three feelings, then you are an ungrateful ingrate.
"They are my people. As a lord, it is my duty to lead them to a happy life." Liszt said lightly.
His expression was calm.
There was no complacency, no compassion, only the nobility that aristocrats should show.
If it was an ugly aristocrat, no matter how noble it is, it would be the same thing. But with Liszt's handsome face, it directly exudes a great personal charm.
Carter was immediately excited, "You have inherited all the nobility of the Tulip family and the Taro family. May the glory of the Knight always look after you."
… …
The touching performance in the castle continued.
On the vast sea outside Coral Island, several sailboats with red Tulip flags were braving the wind and waves.
The cabin was filled with ragged, sallow and emaciated serfs, who reeked of a horrible stench. These serfs seemed to have lost their spirit, lying weakly on the planks, motionless for a long time.
"It's time to eat, it's time to eat!" The shouts of the sailors came from afar.
The serfs, who were half-dead just now, quickly changed their state and rushed out of the cabin.
A little female slave, about eight or nine years old, was knocked down by the serf next to her and fell to the ground.
Watching as the others squeezed out of the cabin to get food, tears welled up in her eyes and quickly rolled down her dirty cheeks.
Suddenly.
