Looking at the problem calmly and objectively, Liszt freed himself from his unrealistic fantasies about dragons. He felt that the so-called information about the invisible dragon might not be a good reward.
According to his previous inference.
First, the smoke mission seemed to be popularizing science. However, this did not make any sense. As a cheat, it should not be so boring.
Second, there was an invisible dragon nearby that could be captured. If it was true, then it would definitely be explosive news. However, Liszt did not have the strength to capture a dragon. Most of the countries with dragons started with young dragons as they could not withstand adult dragons. However, even if it was just a young dragon, the entire Coral Island would still not be able to defeat it with all the Knight.
Third, the invisible dragon came from afar to deliver the equipment. Liszt did not feel that his affinity with dragons was that good.
Fourth, the invisible dragon was probably going to attack the Flower Town.
The fourth inference was undoubtedly the most likely. Dragons attacking human villages and towns was no longer big news. Otherwise, the profession 'Dragon Slayer' would not have arisen. In the major Knight novels, the Dragon Slayer was a popular protagonist, second only to the Dragon Knight.
Basically, in a qualified Knight novel, the protagonist would become a Dragon Knight or slay a dragon, and then marry a beautiful princess.
"Therefore, the rewards of these two missions tell me that I have to resist a dragon and strive to become the protagonist of a Knight novel, the Dragon Slayer Liszt?"
Liszt looked in the mirror and chuckled: "So, if the dragon dies, then where is the princess?"
Liszt's mood was a bit complicated. He was worried that his speculation would come true, but he also felt that it was impossible. After thinking it over, he felt that there was no need to be groundless fears. He should first complete the missions and see what kind of clues the final reward would give before making a decision.
If the invisible dragon really invaded and he could not resist it, then it did not mean that he could not ask for help.
Once this information was sent to the Sapphire Family, he believed that it should not be difficult to get the title of marquis. This was the highest title that could be conferred in a principality.
After calling Gort, he immediately handed over the mission: "This corn grass will not suddenly appear. The seeds must have been blown over by birds or the wind. Teacher Gort, mobilize all the idle farmers to search between the settlements. We must find more corn grass. "
Gort did not quite understand the mission. "Liszt, is this corn grass very important?"
"Of course, it's a kind of pasture with very high nutritional value. It's even more suitable than alfalfa as fodder for horse farms and dairy farms … No matter what, it's better to plant different kinds of pasture so that the livestock can grow faster."
"Since it's so valuable, I'll immediately arrange for people to search for it. I won't miss a single corner."
Just as they were talking, Liszt suddenly saw a group of people walking past the gate in an orderly manner outside the castle, heading south towards the Thorns Ridge.
"Teacher Gort, is that the new patrol team?"
"Yes, your retainer Knight has been a great help. At first, those bastards in the patrol team refused to obey the orders of an administrative officer like me, but after a few fights, they quickly restrained their temper."
"Well done. Discipline is the first priority of the patrol team. Teacher Gort, the management of the patrol team needs to continue to be strengthened. I have a few ideas that need to be implemented … The patrol team needs to take on the public security of the fief and the settlements. The fief will pay them. They also need to unify their uniforms and conduct themselves in a uniform manner. "
Liszt outlined some general ideas. He intended to establish the patrol team as a police station. For the time being, they would only be responsible for public security. In the future, they would also be responsible for household registration.
In this way, they could thoroughly understand everything about the fief. Anyone with a suspicious identity would not be able to gain a foothold in the Flower Town.
"However, there are only a few Naldas in the fief. Isaiah has complained to me more than once that he can't do anything without a Nalda."
There were not many gold coins in Liszt's castle. The butler had previously reported to him that there were still about 150 gold coins.
However, the castle was currently very 'fat'. Just Liszt's Redblood Sword alone was worth one to two thousand gold coins. There was also the annual profit from the Black Tulip industry as well as the large amount of materials exchanged for assimilation.
"I will allocate fifty gold coins from the castle to maintain the fief's development. This portion of gold coins will be deducted from the fief's annual tax."
"Fifty Naldas? That is too much. Liszt, I have looked it up. The fief's annual tax revenue is only a pitiful fifteen Naldas."
"Fifty Naldas is not much. Teacher Gort, tell Isaiah and Blair that the Flower Town will enter a busy period. They should be prepared."
"As you wish!"
… …
Liszt was not joking about the Flower Town's development.
He had already started drawing a map of the fief. It was a very abstract and crude topographic map. Basically, the Flower Town was like a right-angled triangle.
The two right-angled sides were the Thorns Ridge and the oblique side was the East Coast.
The fief was located in the center of the triangle. The castle was located near the right angle. The dairy farm and the barley settlement occupied the other two corners.
"If you want to get rich, you must first build a road." Holding a quill, he drew the dirt road from the Thorns Ridge to the fief, "I need to build a gravel road for this main road. There is no cement, but there is a lot of sand. The East Coast has a lot of sand, which can be used to pave the road."
Then there was the mud road between the settlements, which could all be paved with sand.
However, it was not a good choice to pave the road with sand alone. It was difficult to drain the accumulated water, and it would also pour into the shoes, leaving sand everywhere. Unfortunately, there were not many stones in the vicinity of the Flower Town, so it was impossible to mix sand with stone. As such, sand roads could only be built. It was more convenient than mud roads, which could not be used when it rained.
Building roads was a big deal, and the other was farming.
Sprites could influence the growth of crops, but they could not be relied on entirely. Previously, when there were no sprites in the Flower Town, the fief's farmers still had to farm.
"Scientific farming has only completed the first step, which is to let the subjects know to fertilize the crops. However, this is not enough. I still need to forge a batch of farming tools to increase the productivity of the farmers, so that more wasteland can be reclaimed to grow crops. I have exchanged for a pile of iron from Tulip Castle and Falcon Town, and I can contact the blacksmith shop. "
These two things were urgently needed, but the results could not be seen at the moment.
However, there was another thing that could quickly bear fruit – gathering at the sea.
On the back of Fierydragon, Liszt gazed at the endless sea in front of him. The salty smell of the seawater assailed his nostrils. Waves splashed on the beach, reflecting the sunlight. For a moment, his eyes were filled with small stars.
Thomas held Dosen's hand and let it play on the beach.
Dosen developed very quickly. He could see it grow up almost every day. It was now the size of a rural dog. Perhaps it was because of the good food it ate, but there were already traces of magic power circulating on its body. It might not need to reach adulthood before it could release magic.
Liszt was ready to seize the opportunity to train it to prevent it from being too wild and hurting people.
"Sir, is there anything worth paying attention to on the East Coast? There are no deep bays here, so it is not suitable for a dock." Markus looked at the waves, still not feeling that there was anything valuable in the sea.
