The Defeated Dragon

The Lester telescope, divided into a long tube and a short tube, is a telescope used to observe the moon, with a multiplier of more than thirty times; the short tube is a portable telescope he intends to build for the Knight squad, stretchable, with a magnification of up to fifteen times or so.

Twenty concave convex lenses can only consist of one long barrel, three short barrels, and the rest of the lenses are not qualified.

He threw the lens at Carter: “Mr. Carter, look for it, see which lens can magnify the image, and then you can use it to read the book. ”

Carter is old and has some bad vision. Isn't it beautiful to give him a magnifying glass?

A pair of cartridges, left in the castle; three pairs of cartridges, one carried by Lester, one by Marcus' Knight Squad and one by Carl's patrol.

This assignment ends.

Lester also intended to retain Brad, the crystal artisan, at a high salary, but he refused without any hesitation - although the town of Flowers has grown considerably, the gap is still enormous compared to Coral City and does not attract these freelance craftsmen of good social standing.

The same.

Isaiah's family visited him in Flower Town, but when Isaiah persuaded them to stay, they did not hesitate to refuse - his son even said directly, "Are you kidding me? There is not even a brothel here! ”

Gaultai's family also visited Flower Town and stayed for two days before leaving.

It is also aristocratic, children and grandchildren live okay, do not want to live in the countryside. His wife did intend to settle in Flower Town, but was rejected by Gaultai for a very good reason. Flower Town was too barren to let her suffer.

In fact, it was fearful that the other party would discover that Frya existed - that Frya's tummy had risen.

“Lord, have you invented telescopes that can be seen far away?” Captain Costa, after hearing the news, hurried to the castle, "wondered if the Flower could be fitted with a telescope? Sailing at sea requires a very good view and telescopes can help us tremendously. ”

Reasonable request.

Lester is a little tangled up, nautical telescope, probably the castle's vice chandelier, the Lester Telescope, but it's the equipment he uses to explore the universe.

Thinking about it, he said, "Captain Costo, you go back and train your sailor apprentice, the logging team will soon open the pier road, Flower Town's own pier is about to be built, you can familiarize yourself with the situation near the pier first. As for the telescope, there will be. ”

Send Costó away.

Listello took out a piece of crystal with meat and handed it to Thomas: “When the Flowertown convoy returns, hand it over to the person in charge and tell him, ask Brad Crystal Artisan to carve out two sets of Lenses 3 and 17." Lenses 3 and 17 are lens models that combine a long barrel.

The telescope thing, to Lester, is more of a joke.

After researching it, he didn't really have much interest in telescopes for long —— looking at the moon, looking at the stars all day, not seeing the secrets of how the universe works.

So...

He took Jensen out to inspect the work of the logging team and had the right to relax.

To the north of the dairy farm, a large area of thorn bushes is covered by thorn grass, and besides ordinary thorns, the largest number of thorns of the quick-breed variety - including quick-breed poison thorns and quick-breed thorns - is the thorn chain mission, and it is not known whether there will be any follow-up.

The thorny bushes are headed northeast, which is where the logging team works.

The scene is hot and hot.

Smoke rolls.

Numerous serfs wield sweat and cut down trees. Some cut off the trunk with an ax, some cut off the trunk with a saw blade, some cut off the leaves with a machete, others put the trunk stack together, the branches stack together, and the leaves were taken away and burned locally.

Burning fires is both a threat to beasts and warcraft and a hoarding of grass and wood ash. In the future, they will be composted when clearing wasteland.

Little clerks and patrol members constantly travel among the serfs, scolding and shouting, urging serfs to do serious work. Gaultai, Isaiah, Blair and Karl each commanded a large group of serfs to maintain order on the scene. Marcus, with his knight squad, patrolled the perimeter.

When Lister came, Gaultai ran over and said, "Good afternoon, my lord. ”

“Good afternoon, Miss Gaultai.” Greetings from Lester, "a quarter of the town's population should be cutting trees here. How long do you think it'll take to cut all the trees in Thorn Hill? ”

“If we had enough tools, it would only take twenty days, no, it could only take two weeks. But not enough tools, my lord. A lot of people share an axe, a saw blade, and a machete. It's too late. Even if the serfs respond enthusiastically to your call, they will not be able to do their utmost. ”

“I have asked the florists to buy tools from cities, iron is too expensive, bone is too brittle… I hope my father can plunder a batch of iron ore, otherwise the iron deficit on Coral Island will remain unresolved. ”

No metal, no gems, and very few elves.

Aristocrats are often compelled to compete on the continent rather than to remain steadfast on the islands. If they had the vision of a prophet, they might develop technology to bridge that gap, but they did not, so they could only plunder resources from the continent to make up for the lack.

Why is the Kingdom of the Eagle repeatedly and tragically harassed by the Sapphire Kingdom? Just because they have white mouth iron dragons, they can produce a lot of iron ore.

Iron and steel, probably the most useful of all metals.

So whenever the Iron Ridge kingdom calls for battle, Grand Duke of Sapphire immediately issues a pioneering order, and the nobles rush up - burning, killing, robbing.

Lester sometimes wonders, "Why do I always think that the Grand Duchy of Sapphires is the other world's coyote? ”

With its own statehood overseas and a well-developed fleet, it attacked the kingdoms of the continent with impunity. Run for it, repeat the script every year, beauty. Despite the lack of technical content, it can succeed every year, and the Count does not know how many times he has been to the mainland.

Little by little accumulates the bottom of a house this big on Coral Island.

“My lord, construction of small towns and roads has been temporarily halted due to logging work. The harvest will soon be in autumn, and Barley Tun and Wheat Tun may not have enough personnel. ”

“When the harvest date is set, it is not too late to draw hands.” What did Lester suddenly think of? Take a look at Gaultai, “Mr. Gaultai, how long have you been following me to Flower Town? ”

Gaultai suddenly said: "The Lord divided the Baron of Flower Town on March 9 and left the next day. He arrived in Flower Town that afternoon. Today is September 23. Six months and two weeks have passed. ”

“Six and a half months, passed by in a flash. ”

“But flower towns today, definitely not flower towns six months ago, are flourishing everywhere. ”

“Yeah, I'm happy with the development of Flower Town.” Lister rides a dragon horse, walks slowly, and the world in front of her has merged into herself, "The most satisfying thing is that the change of mind, Mr. Golthey, six months ago, you were yelling all day drinking, and now you know to finish your job, then drink, and even delay drinking for work. ”

Gaultai smiled embarrassingly: “When I get older, people are always lazy. Fortunately, I came to Flower Town to regain the confidence and struggle of my youth. ”

“I'm glad you're changing. ”

Lister looked at the distance and said, "Maybe in a few days, a bunch of 500 serfs will be here, and I need you to do a resettlement plan. Instead of arranging the serfs separately, a holistic approach is needed to plan for the future of the town of flowers - in an advisory capacity. ”

Heard the word "consultant”.

Gaultai's pupils were suddenly enlarged.
