The Defeated Dragon
Chapter 239 Yet the Count has already seen through (third, 2200 first order)
“I invented this. ”
“You invented it? ”
“Yes, a wreck was found on the beach in Flower Town, salvaging a little treasure, a few of which were crystals. I invited a crystal artisan and magician to carve me crystal lamps. And then I found out that when the crystal was grinded into the lens, two pieces overlaid you, and you could actually zoom in. ”
The story is naturally a fabricated story, but the Count has not studied its true or false nature.
It was not important to him how the telescope was invented; it was important why the telescope could be telescoped and what its role was.
“No wonder a lot of people say that you've been honored by knights all year.” The Earl moaned at the wooden mirror of the telescope, emotionally, “can you recognize its value? ”
“I think it can be used in warfare, and it should be very helpful if we can observe the enemy's movements from a distance. ”
“Knight Strike, with the binoculars, captures the movement of local Knights faster and captures the most suitable fighter aircraft. Its value, small can be very small, and it doesn't even make any difference. A massive Knights Strike is tough; but big can be big. ”
The Count has been fighting all year, and he is very heartfelt about it: “The Little Knights are more mobile and flexible, and with telescopes, whether sneaking up or counter-attacking, they can take the lead… Yesterday's game of war posting, if I had a telescope, many of your sneaking tactics would be completely ineffective. ”
Lister nodded and added: "If I use binoculars, I can achieve more brilliant tactical results. ”
“Well, that's not wrong. ”
“So the value of the binoculars can be huge and I think it would be a great gift for you. ”
“You've grown up.” The Count is yet another sentiment, full of comfort in his eyes, but soon it will converge, "the telescope is of great significance and needs to be protected from being known by outsiders! ”
“So far, I'm probably the only one who can get inside the telescope.” Lister suddenly remembers something, "Oh right, Brad the Crystal Artisan, if he had a heart, he should have understood the telescope, after all, he was the one who grinded it out. ”
“The crystal artisan, then, must not be left alone. ”
“How about you give him and his family to me? As for the principle of binoculars, I can present them immediately to Tulip Chambers.” The Listering machine moved and opened its mouth. As for the Brad family belonging to a free people, that makes no sense, and no one can disobey the Count who wants to arrange to go to Flower Town.
The Count certainly wouldn't bother with this little thing: “I'll let Jacob handle it later. ”
Jacob is the Count's territorial adviser.
Satisfaction with the telescope allowed the Count to offer more benefits without waiting for Lester to open his mouth: "I hear you got 3,000 pounds of ingots from Levi's hand?” The little action between the sons, the Count knew it, so frankly said, did not try to mean no knocking.
Because Reeves and Lester, who don't always play with Lipton, so clearly alienated, are things the Count doesn't want to see - all his sons.
“Yes, I have improved the process of ordinary fermented wines to produce semi-finished white wines, and I hope to sell them in cooperation with my brother. Three thousand kilograms of iron ingots is kind of my brother's heart. ”
“You can come up with white wine technology to show that you are not only honored by knights, but also have a big view and long-term planning, and I look forward to your future. I also divided 10,000 kilos of iron ingots from the trophy as compensation for telescope technology. ”
The Count did it, bossy!
Lester was very excited: "Thank you Lord Father! ”
As a rare resource, 10,000 kilograms of iron can create a number of iron vessels, which are very valuable. Perhaps iron is used mostly to make armor and weapons, but for Lester, iron is one of the foundations of industry, a material that wood has always been irreplaceable.
Even Lester has the iron wood quality of Rapid Iron Thorn.
After thanking him, Lester called the butler and took the five secret silver mines he had specially prepared into the study: "Father, this is one of the treasures I found in the wreck, and I would like to exchange you some gold coins, and the finances of the territory are unsatisfactory and tense. ”
“Secret silver?” Of course the Count has seen this type of ore and immediately identifies it in his hand. In fact, he armed an elite cavalier squad with a secret silver armor, "the five pieces of silver, blended into an ingot of iron, can create almost ten pairs of secret silver armor, valuable. ”
He didn't take a deep look at Lester.
Lister looked at it - he knew what the Count meant, that Flower Town had a lot of good things to offer, the benefits from the wreck, the fear of more than just these secret pieces of silver, and the crystals he had mentioned earlier - but he also understood that the Count would never rob his own son of his own personal possessions.
“A secret silver mine, converted into 100 gold coins, how about that? ”
“Of course, I thank Lord Father for his generosity. ”
“Five hundred gold coins can buy 2,500 serfs, which is faster than the population of Flower Town, are you sure Flower Town can provide for it?” The Count smiled.
Lester chirped in his heart.
It always felt like this smile was less profound than the look in his eyes, as if "Yet the Count had seen through everything long ago”. With this smile, Lester felt that all his secrets were invisible - he had reason to assume that, with the Earl's grasp of Coral Island, it was not difficult to ask what.
“Will he already know the existence of Black Horse Island? ”
The thought flashed, and Lester pressed it down, whether he knew it or not, and he pretended not to know it. Reclaiming a deserted island is not a matter of common wrath. As long as the Count does not know the existence of a black BMW, Black Horse Island will not be damaged if it is known.
At least for now, the Earl is unclear about the black BMW, or Lester, even his own son, would have taken the black BMW without courtesy.
Noble's affection, for the great good, is not worth mentioning.
Besides, how can you shake the love of your father and son if you steal the horses and compensate Lester for some gold coins? Even countless robberies are not needed, and Mrs. Penelope, Mrs. Marie, Rivera, and Levi's saliva can drown Lester with a little family opinion offense.
In fact, it is not necessarily a bad thing to think from a profit point of view and contribute a black BMW to the Count.
But Listershire could not - the horses arrived in the hands of the Tulip family, not knowing how many years it would take to give him a little bit of the Armed Knight Squad.
As a dragon knight with an ambitious future, his own things are his own, and he doesn't want to rob anyone; and the family's resources, more rationally, should support him in fulfilling his ambitions and revitalizing the family.
To suppress the myth, Lester merely failed to see the Count's meaning: "The route of Flower Town, slightly different from the traditional farming route, requires a large population. ”
