The Defeated Dragon
Chapter 114 Protection of Insect Grass
The Count was busy, Lester just took a gap, asked him his best and offered his blessings. Then leave Tulip Chamberlain and return to Flower Town.
In the interim, the Count solemnly said, "The town of Flowers is developing very well, and I am concerned to train your cavalry team, hoping that next year's pioneering decree will allow you and Levi to fight side by side. ”
“I look forward to it, too. ”
That's how Liszt responded.
But in my heart it is impossible - in this regard, it is impossible to fight, it is impossible to fight in my life. You don't know how to kiss your ass. It's like planting a field so you can live like this.
But no one can say exactly what will happen in the future.
He won't spend the rest of his life in Flowertown, being a country baron. Dragon riding is a big goal in life, and owning an island of your own is a small goal. Some effort is required to have an island to cover, or at least to mix, the title of Viscount.
On the way back, Dragon Horse Mercedes-Benz.
He was on the horse's back, slightly distracted.
Pioneering the banquet, the arousal of the nobles infected him - the nobles may be a bunch of parasites, but their desire for glory is pure.
It's about fighting, it's about fighting, it's about fighting for your life.
“Am I really not going to war? How do I get promoted to the title if I don't go to war? Rebellion? Without the strength to slaughter dragons, rebellion equals death. ”
Sapphire dragons from the Sapphire family should not be used as decorations.
That's the world's finest force, equivalent to nuclear weapons, and it's better not to test it.
“Going to war for credit is the most effective way to get promoted… Lords don't need to take the lead, let knights fight and kill, or be safe. It would be a little embarrassing to be captured and redeemed, but it's important to be able to save your own life. ”
“Perhaps I could take the route of the second son of an ordinary nobleman to attack the noble lady? ”
Some noblemen, born only to their daughters, must have been inherited by their daughters, and the Grand Duchy recognized the Duchess. Such aristocratic ladies are best married to the second son of the aristocrat.
Some noble ladies, loved by their parents, acquire their own land and become hereditary nobles, such as Le Vera. It would also be the best marriage for the second son of a nobleman.
“Unfortunately, the Grand Duchy of Sapphire, the right noble lady is after all a minority… There are many noble ladies at the level of Lord Knight, Baron, and noble ladies like Viscount, Count, are very rare. The archipelago itself is not very large, with only seven marquises and more than twenty Earls. ”
Moreover, there is a very real problem - noble ladies yearn for higher noble sons, not ordinary little nobles.
“I am handsome, my father is the Earl, my grandfather is the Marquis, and I personally get the Baron's Seal. Among the aristocratic second sons, I am probably very competitive, let me think about it, the Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of those single villains suitable for marriage...” After a lap, I didn't even think of one.
All nobles want to have a boy and inherit his title.
Noblemen with only one daughter, very few.
The battlefield was too dangerous, the jazz was too scarce, and Lester came up with a third way to get the title - to make a big contribution. If he contributes to the Grand Duke of Sapphire, maybe he can get the Count, or even the Marquis' title.
“But the titles conferred by contributions are life-long titles, with no enclosure. This approach is simply not desirable. ”
There's no good way to think about it.
He laughed at himself and felt sad: “Instead of being so troubled, I'd rather expect the Count and Livius... Stop, I always feel like such an idea should not appear, after all, a blood relative. ”
……
Back to Flower Town.
Lester is in a relaxing rhythm again.
The Count was in a hurry to engage in the war and could not even hold his birthday on 14 September on Coral Island, so he had no diplomacy to worry about and could safely develop the town.
The dragonfly is still half-dead, but as long as it's not dead, it means the Pokémon have a desire to live.
Hope is still there.
What delighted him was the coconut tree, and Fruit Nuon Giggles came to report that the coconut fruit had split open and had not flowed out of coconut milk, but had climbed out of a milky white, fat elf worm.
Bring the jade powder and jade box.
Lister hurried to Oyster Tun and climbed the broccoli tree dozens of meters tall herself, seeing the long-awaited coconut tree Pokémon - fatter, fatter than all the Pokémon on his hands, with a particularly white body, like a faint glow. It's like just washing milk bath.
“Little guy, come on, I'll treat you, have some jade powder. ”
He sprinkled the jade powder on the broccoli fruit, seducing the Pokémon, the native Pokémon, relying on instinctive action, and was soon attracted by the magical jade powder.
Start swallowing jade powder in large mouths.
Next, Lester simply spreads his fingers onto the powder and reaches out to the elf's mouth.
Bite it down.
Contract completed.
The joy of being connected, connecting him closely with the Sprite Bug of the Coconut Tree, sharing joy and sorrow.
Inserting the coconut in the jade box, Lester rewarded the fruit farmers who had been patient with the coconut, one silver coin for each person: "Giggs, you have to look after this wormgrass carefully in the future, okay? ”
“Understood, My Lord. ”
Return to the castle and hand over the coconut to Carter for inclusion in the bug house.
Carter was very happy, but he also expressed his concern: "Sir, we already have eight Pokémon, and I'm afraid the castle's servants will not be able to take good care of every wormgrass. See if you need to hire a new servant to take care of wormgrass. ”
This is a reminder to Lester.
Surely all the people of Flower Town dared not disobey him, let alone destroy his wormgrass. I'm not afraid of 10,000, just in case a civilian goes mad and chops off the wormgrass; or if there's an animal, accidentally eats the wormgrass - don't expect the fence to stop everything.
“Your concerns are valid, but I do not intend to recruit servants to take care of wormgrass, and I intend to establish a regular team to take care of wormgrass. ”
Do what you want, call Gaulte, Marcus, and Carl Iron Hammer.
“Sir. ”
“Teacher Gaultai, Teacher Marcus, Carl, came to you because my Pokémon worms are growing and wormgrass is spread all over the town, and they need better protection. ”
“Do you need patrols to patrol the wormgrass more often, my lord? ”
“Patrols are not enough. I need long, dedicated protection. Do you have any good ideas?” Lester had an idea, but it didn't show.
Contains and does not reveal - this is the way of control of the superior.
Gorte thought about it: "The current protection of insect herbs relies mainly on the care of castle servants, local farmer surveillance and patrols, and fence isolation. Perhaps we can train more patrols to specialize in wormgrass. ”
Marcus is even more straightforward: “You can give it to the Knight Squad to patrol. ”
“My lord, I think we can arrange a patrol to work around the wormgrass," Karl concluded. At present, we have twenty patrols, visiting small towns, who do not need this much. Eight patrols are assigned to guard the wormgrass, which can keep it protected all the time. ”
“Carl's suggestion is more in line with my thinking, but there is no need for patrols to be on duty, which is a waste of human resources. Pick strong serfs from the tunnels, arrange their shifts to guard the wormgrass, remunerate them by the Township Administration, a copper plate a day. ”
After a pause, he continued: "In addition, Teacher Marcus arranged for the cavalier squad to teach them some simple fighting skills to guard serfs. ”
