The Defeated Dragon

“I doubt you're crazy, it's like a lion talking.” Livius raised his voice and expressed his dissatisfaction.

“Don't be impatient, brother. ”

“Well, I listen quietly, what reason do you have for me to agree to such absurd terms? Lester, my dear brother, you should understand that black tulip is important to the tulip family, but not indispensable, and we already have three varieties of tulip magic. ”

“I know this very well, and I also know that the magic of black tulip, better than the other three varieties of magic, is suitable to be the backbone of the family. ”

The magic potion, magic at the same time, is very troublesome —— it has to be cultivated by an elf before it can reproduce, and without it, its next generation will gradually lose its magic and degrade into ordinary plants.

But this is without prejudice to its value.

Configure magic pills, forge magic equipment, practice magic and fighting, all of which are inseparable from magic. Coral Island Knights College has opened a magic pharmacy specializing in magic drugs. Once the earth knights are caught in a period of habitual stagnation, they must rely on magic potions to power themselves and strike at the sky knights.

Every Sky Knight is a medicine jar, and you don't know how many magic potions you have to take to get premium fighting.

Without the support of the family's tulip magic, Lee William will not be so easy to break through and become one of the few Sky Knights in the Grand Duchy of Sapphire.

So Lester knew very well that the value of the magic was immense —— his brother, the talented knight of the earth, who wouldn't miss the black tulip.

After a long time, Lester said, “My talent is terrible, Sky Knight is hard to hope for, but brother, you may be more talented than your father was when he was younger, and I think, with the black tulip scent, you are constantly producing magic, and your Sky Knight path will be more accommodating. ”

He glanced at Levera again: "Same goes for my sister, I'm sure the Sky Knight is far more affordable than a thousand gold coins, isn't it? I sincerely hope that my brother and sister will all be Sky Knights, the Tulip Family, and need you to carry them. As for me, I just want to make some money to improve my life. ”

Speaking of Sky Knights, Levi's breathing was a little rushed.

He became a Earth Knight at the age of 13, and at the age of 21, everyone said he could be another Sky Knight in the Tulip family, just like his father. It's just that he knows how big the gap between the Earth Knights and the Sky Knights is - running out of family resources and not necessarily piling him up.

Besides, there is an equally talented younger brother, Lipton Tulip.

The Liptons were just a small nobleman, not worth mentioning, but it had to be admitted that his mother, the current Countess, still had a terrible pillow wind, and a small fraction of Tulip Chamberlain's resources were allocated to Lipton - which made Livius's heart drip blood and complained about his father.

Shouldn't the family be training themselves to become Sky Knights? Why waste resources?

eyes slightly narrowed, and he sighed: "Lister, you really should not have made such harsh terms for me. ”

“So, let me put it another way: the black tulip business, I only work with my brother and sister? Father, I'm sure you won't mind a magic potion.” Lester's diving lines, avoiding Tulip Castle, also avoided Lipton, and the future production of black tulips would be distributed only among their three siblings.

That half-brother, Lipton, was a drag. He didn't look like Lister. He gave Lister white eyes.

Lester pit he didn't hesitate at all.

Reeves measured for a moment and asked, "Is Rivera involved? ”

“I didn't plan this before, but Lester invited me, why should I not do it?” Livella is less gifted than Livius, but as eager as Sky Knight is, "don't forget, I have elves, too. ”

“Fine, talk about it, how to divide it. ”

……

After several attempts and compromises, the three brothers and sisters successfully reached an agreement.

After harvesting the seeds, Black Tulip will rely on the Tulip Elf to grow near Coral City. Waiting for a new harvest of seeds, extensive planting began in Coral City, Falcon Town and Flower Town.

For the first three years, all black tulip magic was handed over to Livius. Lester receives a profit share at market prices - Coral City is a three-part share and Falcon is a two-part share.

Three years later, the black tulip of Falcon was no longer handed over to Levi's, Levi's alone, and Lester's split by half.

Ten years later, Lester stopped collecting shares.

“At present, the gold tulip magic of Tulip Castle has a profit of about 5,000 gold coins a year. Black tulip should be able to go beyond that. Assuming it's 7,000 gold coins, I can have about 2,000 gold coins for one year, which is much more than a thousand gold coins at a time. ”

After signing a formal agreement, Lester thought about it.

He thought it would be a good idea to share 20% of his profits, but Livius cheated on his youth and ignorance, intending to buy out a thousand gold coins at once, so the retaliation increased to 30%.

Brother-in-law counts, not to mention Lester doesn't think they're brother-in-law - they have almost nothing to do with it except the body's blood.

The agreement was reached, and the three brothers and sisters seemed a little more acquiescent.

Outside the castle, farmers are still busy reclaiming wasteland.

“What, are you going to plant crops outside the castle? Wheat or barley?” Levera stood by the window looking away.

“Plant alfalfa grass, prepare to raise horses here. ”

Livius walked over and said, "Horse support? Ready to form your own Knight Regiment? ”

“It is hoped that a cavalier team will be formed, and the monster of Thorn Ridge is a major threat, buried in the mouth of the monster every winter. The town doesn't even have a fighter... Brother, can I talk to you for a second?” Lister suddenly came up with something.

Two people walked to a separate quiet room.

“What's so mysterious and secretive about? ”

“I remember when I was a kid, Coral Island had a small population, and my father flew them back from the outer islands? ”

“Well, when the Father's Register was closed to the Earl, there were only a few thousand Aboriginal people on Coral Island, all trafficked in from the outside, otherwise you'd think 90 percent of the population on Coral Island was family serfs. ”

“Has Brother considered continuing human trafficking? ”

“Continuing human trafficking?” Levi, take a good look at Lester. “Can Flower Town feed more people, this shitty little town, feed you? I doubt it. Do you want to feed others? Or, where are you going to sell people? ”

Trafficking in human beings is not a glorious affair, but nobility opens its doors and always needs human beings.

Essentially many nobles, more or less, are involved in the trafficking of human beings.

“Flowertown is really small, so I'm going to develop Thorn Ridge, which will take a lot of people. Black tulip-like output, believed to hold up for some time, was enough to grow Flower Town, at least not worse than my sister's Falcon Town.” Lester said half true and half false.

The strategy of massive grain, high wall construction, and slow weighing of the king should be clear in the mind.
