After handing over the production of Firedragon to One-eyed Barton, Liszt returned to the castle.
Before eating, he took the time to play the piano again. The impulse of being the King of Piano has probably subsided, but he still likes to play the piano.
Listening to music purifies the mind.
At the dinner party, his followers got drunk to celebrate his success in being knighted on Black Horse Island.
"I wish I could be so carefree …" Liszt envied these people. They could eat and drink without thinking about the future.
He was still a little depressed in his heart because before the start of the dinner, Blair, the financial officer, reported to him, "My Lord, you asked for 4,260 gold coins to be raised. With the financial resources of Flower Town and Black Horse Island, the current commercial funds and taxes have all been transferred, and only 1,350 gold coins have been raised."
"If the remaining gold coins are mortgaged with the future proceeds of flower brew, how long will it take to withdraw enough gold coins from Tulip Castle?"
"I have calculated that the current production scale and market sales of flower brew are only partially spread on Coral Island and Red Crab Island. Golden Island is still under negotiation. The monthly share is about 600 gold coins … It will take about six months to withdraw enough gold coins."
"Then mortgage it."
"But my Lord, if the future proceeds of flower brew are mortgaged, the construction of the territory for the next six months will immediately be in trouble … We do not have enough financial resources to support the construction of Black Horse Island. We can't maintain it only by the proceeds of flower soap, carpentry workshop, and Black Tulip."
Blair said helplessly.
Flower Town's foundation was still too thin, and Liszt was bent on rapid development, leading to the collapse of the capital chain.
"Don't worry, first mortgage the proceeds of flower brew, I will find a way to get the missing gold coins." Liszt comforted him, but his heart was bleeding. He knew that he would have to sell his family property again.
So.
His followers drank heartily, but he couldn't get involved – he didn't want to get involved, he didn't like drinking.
Holding the iced juice and sipping it, his mind was thinking about how to make money. "Flower Town is obviously rich in products and a large number of elves are promoting production, but … it still can't keep up with my consumption. It's the most profitable potion, but it's only enough for me to take it myself … It's really hard to raise an elite Earth Knight of the potion style. "
In this world, as long as one had enough to eat and had a decent aptitude, one could basically cultivate to become an Earth Knight.
However, not everyone could afford the elite Earth Knight who insisted on taking drugs every day.
Black Horse Island has not yet been developed. At present, Liszt's income comes from Flower Town. That is, with the help of the smoke mission, coupled with the development of flower wine, flower soap and other products, with the power of a small town, he was able to continue to take pills and cultivate.
Gold coins were the biggest obstacle to a Knight's progress.
"Otherwise, we can sell rubber. Black Horse Island hasn't been developed and doesn't need too much rubber. Such a good product, Tulip Castle should need it. It can be sold for a good price. "After magic potions and ironwood, the most important agricultural product in the territory was the all-purpose rubber.
Of course, the milk of dragon-type cows was also an important product, but it was not suitable for public consumption and was suitable for internal supply.
In fact, he could also sell the inventory of mithril, jade, and crystals, but these were consumable resources, easy to sell but difficult to obtain, so he was reluctant to sell them.
"So it's decided, sell rubber."
… …
After the dinner.
He went to the sea view villa. A Qi hardly went swimming these two days. She was seriously reading notes and studying magic, almost fascinated by it.
This made Liszt feel like he had been left out in the cold.
"Brother, A Qi feels that she will soon be able to understand the key information and break through to become a great magician! She is helping her brother sail! "Fortunately, she was just too involved in magic research and did not really neglect Liszt.
"It's necessary to work hard, but don't stay up too late. More relaxation can make your brain clearer and more efficient than burying yourself in magic books all day."
"Well, A Qi understands."
Having said that, her eyes still couldn't leave the magic books.
Liszt stopped bothering her and began to tease Nami. The mangrove elf did not feed the ducks on Mangrove Island today, but stayed with A Qi in the sea view villa.
"Chirp."
Nami sat at the table, holding an apple in her hand. The apple was given to her by Liszt, and she liked apples very much.
"Nami, do you like mangroves?"
"Chirp, chirp." Nami took another bite of the apple, and then blinked her big eyes at Liszt, not knowing if she understood Liszt's words.
"According to the living habits of mangroves, I plan to plant mangroves in Flower Town and the seaside of Black Horse Island to create habitats for green caterpillars and mallard ducks." He was talking to Nami, but he was actually thinking about it himself. "Green caterpillars cannot be raised in ordinary forests."
Mallard ducks may be raised in cages, but if you want to raise them well, you can't do without the green caterpillars.
The green caterpillars on Mangrove Island alone certainly cannot support the large-scale breeding of mallard ducks.
"Chirp."
Nami glanced at Liszt and looked down at the big apple she was holding. Then, she reluctantly handed the big apple to Liszt: "Chirp."
"Haha, I don't want to eat it, you eat it." Liszt pushed the apple back and touched the little green leaves and red flowers on Nami's head.
The emerald green Nami looked particularly pleasant.
Originally, in addition to her beauty, her biggest role was that the mangrove tree could produce a kind of fruit with a light sweet and sour taste. It was not very delicious and he didn't know what it was used for. However, with the establishment of the food chain relationship between green caterpillars and mallard ducks, the use of mangroves began to emerge.
Mangroves were inseparable from Nami's mangrove cordyceps, not to mention that Nami could also raise ducklings.
After playing for a while.
Liszt left the sea view villa.
… …
Early the next morning, Liszt took the Flowers to Black Horse Island. Now the Flowers basically traveled between Black Horse Island and Flower Town every day.
Captain Costo not only transported cargo but also trained his crew by sailing.
When Black Horse Island entered a stage of rapid development, Liszt must form a fleet to serve his territory.
"Teacher Markus, Isaiah, what do you think of this land for building a castle? I want to build a waterfront castle, half immersed in the water and the other half standing on the shore." Standing on the rocky shore east of the port town, Liszt asked his followers for their opinions.
"The castle is closely related to the city. Sir, have you decided to build the port town into a port city?"
"Black Horse Island is too small. A port city is very necessary. The island is suitable for building a port. In addition to the current Black Horse Port, there is only one seaport in the northwest." Liszt said, "In terms of route and distance, the port town is the most suitable place to build a city."
"Then I have no problem with the castle being built in its current location … but Sir, we may be able to build the castle completely on the shore to avoid being attacked by sea creatures."
