"I haven't seen you for two months. Young Master Liszt looks more spirited than before. How is life in Flower Town?" Asked Louis with a smile.
"Everything is fine."
"That's good. The Lord has also talked about you several times. He is also very concerned about your current life."
Would the Earl Of Coral Island talk about Liszt's life? Liszt felt very doubtful. If the Earl really cared about Liszt, he would not enfeoff Liszt to a dilapidated town like Flower Town.
Back home, Liszt did not feel homesick.
The soul in his body came from another distant world. The memories of his predecessor were just a movie and could not affect his current mood. He and the Tulip family did not have a familial relationship. Everything was more like a 'game'. Substituting himself in the role of Liszt.
The busy servants in the castle bowed to the three young masters and young ladies when they saw them.
The Tulip family members living here were only the Earl, the Countess, Levis, Lytton, and Li Weiwei, who often came back to live. However, there were more than two hundred servants.
Moreover, the servants had little free time. They were busy from morning to night.
The real work could be summed up in one – to maintain the aristocracy's luxurious life.
"I'm going to take a bath. I can't stand the smell." Li Weiwei entered the castle and turned to leave. "If Father asks about me, tell him that I will be there in a moment."
Levis seemed to be the owner of the castle: "Liszt, do you also need to take a bath first? Father has been keeping your room for you, including the clothes you didn't take away. There are servants to take care of them. "
"I'm not a germaphobe. I will wait for Father here. Brother, if you have something to do, just go ahead and do it. I don't need to entertain you."
"Well, the castle is also your home. Well, I have to go talk to Teacher Franck about the Black Tulip. He is helping me with the planting, sales, and pharmaceuticals. Also, the elves need to be settled down. These delicate little creatures can't be neglected in the slightest. "
Levis also left.
Markus followed a male servant to settle the horses, leaving only Liszt and a few male servants in the living room. He clasped his hands behind his back and admired the crystal lamps on the stone pillars. The number of crystals and other gems in the castle represented the wealth of the nobles, because most of the gems came from dragons.
In Liszt's hometown, gems were probably used to look good.
In this place, gems were natural magic attachments and contained magical power. Gems were indispensable for making magic items. The crystal lamp on the stone pillar in front of him was a magic item made of low-quality crystals. It could be lit until the magic power in the crystal was exhausted. Then, the magic power could be replenished by a Magician or a Knight.
This cycle continued until the crystal was worn out and became an ordinary stone.
"Is a crystal lamp without any engravings worth admiring for so long?" Following the sound of boots hitting the ground, someone spoke from behind Liszt.
Liszt turned around. On the stairs leading to the second floor in the castle's living room, he saw the master of the Tulip Castle. He was a middle-aged man with light blond hair and a pair of unattractive gray-green eyes, which were completely different from the sapphire-colored eyes of Liszt and his two siblings.
His ordinary face had nothing special about it.
Lee William Tulip would probably be inconspicuous in the crowd. However, he was the master of the Coral Island, the Sky Knight who had obtained the title of count through his own efforts.
Levis and Li Weiwei were more like their father than their mother, therefore, they were not good-looking. Only their sapphire-colored eyes were inherited from their mother.
Liszt, on the other hand, inherited his mother's appearance, which was excessively handsome.
"It is probably because I am used to lighting candles that I am not used to the light of the crystal lamp."
"What, are you complaining about life in the Flower Town?" Lee William stood on the stairs, not continuing to go down.
"I am very satisfied with life in the Flower Town, Sir Father." Liszt bowed and saluted, "Your body is as strong as ever, your surging qi is about to overflow."
"Your qi has also increased, this is very good. It is also good to be content with a poor life and not complain." Lee William nodded, "Where are your brother and sister?"
"They are busy, they will come in a moment."
"Follow me to the study." Lee William turned around and went upstairs.
Liszt followed him upstairs and entered the count's study. The study was very large, with a wall of bookshelves, with many books made of thick bast paper. All of them had been sprayed with deodorant and fragrance, so that they did not have the unique stench of thick bast paper. Opposite the bookshelves, near the window, was a mahogany desk with many books piled up on it.
Clatter!
The count unscrewed a bottle of old Crescent Wine and poured it into two crystal goblets. The amber-red wine swayed in the goblets like blood, sparkling and translucent.
The count picked up the goblet and handed it to his third son. He seemed to be a bit surprised: "It seems that living independently for two months has sharpened your temperament." In the past, Liszt was very restrained in front of him. The relationship between father and son was awkward. But now, Liszt looked very calm.
"Thank you." Liszt took the wine, "I understand the responsibilities of a lord. I need to make changes."
"Positive changes."
"I think so too."
After exchanging a few words, the father and son discovered that there was not much to talk about about family. Thereupon, the count raised his goblet, drank a mouthful of red wine, and stiffly changed the subject: "Has the matter of the Black Tulip been properly handled? How much did Levis pay you? "
"Tulip Castle is responsible for the cultivation and sales. I have a share of the profits for ten years, 30%, which is only a cooperation between me, Levis, and Li Weiwei."
The count pondered for a moment: "Only a cooperation between the three of you?"
"Yes."
"You shouldn't have left Lytton, he is also your younger brother."
"He is still young, isn't it good to be sheltered under his father's wings? My brother and sister, we are all adults, it is natural for us to cooperate." Liszt smiled and did not deliberately explain or clarify his thoughts. Lytton looked down on him, so how could he look down on Lytton?
As if only now remembering, Liszt asked: "What about Madam and Lytton? I didn't see them. "
"Madam took Lytton to Snake Spear City. Today is Lytton's uncle's birthday." The countess came from a Baron family of Coral Island, which was located in a small town near Snake Spear City.
After that, there was another period of silence.
Liszt did not inherit the father-son relationship with the count, and he could not chat like a stranger. It was difficult to grasp the degree between them, so he simply spoke less.
The count was somewhat unaccustomed to Liszt's current temperament. Compared to the yes-man attitude of before, it was more like a conversation between equals, and he could not find the feeling of being reprimanded.
After a while, he said: "It's still early for dinner. You can take a stroll around, or go to Coral City to see your friends."
"No, I want to stay in the study and read."
