The Defeated Dragon

This chapter is for the "Flower Ball" reward plus more.

While not waiting to see Lipton, Lester answered questions for him when he asked him about his practice. Speaking of, the reason he didn't want to see Lipton was because of the memory influence of his predecessor - Lipton didn't want to see his predecessor, and his predecessor disgusted Lipton.

But as the horizons widened and the mindset gradually moved beyond, he didn't care about so-called brothers and sisters fighting.

In fact, he was kind of looking forward to Lipton being promoted to Sky Knight.

The Tulip family is interesting if it's a four-sky knight, after all, if he's going to build a nation, the family will be a great help.

After a moment of kung fu, Levera had accompanied Mrs. Penelope to the castle.

The old lady's first words when she saw Lester were: "When you go back, remember to go to my castle and pick up a potted plant to take home. ”

“Grandma, how many new pots have you cultivated?” Lister asked with a smile.

Dragonfly worm, fig worm, emerald worm, the backbone of three Pokémon worms, completely drowned Mrs. Penelope in her own potted plant. Perhaps it was through the potted stunt that we used to spend less on gifts, but now it has a bit of an exorcism.

She has truly believed herself to grow potted plants with a very high probability of producing Pokémon.

Speaking of potted plants, she seemed particularly excited: “I recently became fascinated with succulent meat, and I found them very well nourished, each pot healthy, fat and tender, and my cactus immediately blossomed. ”

“Then I'm definitely going to take a pot. ”

The rest of the conversation, too, was all chatty.

First, we talked about green silk. Everyone praised the fabric, believing that it caused the madness of nobility, but only a matter of time. Later, we talked about several new stage dramas performed by the Black Horse Island Theatre Company, which has now become a must-see for Coral City aristocrats.

Many of the hilarious theatre teams began to mimic the Black Horse Island Theatre Company and gradually turned to theatre.

However, they are all based on the theatrical plot of the Black Horse Island Theatre Company and have no original ability. It's not easy to adapt a classic play. Only Lester, occasionally leisurely, picks the right knight novel and lets Ivy Mask adapt it.

can do nothing about it.

He's probably the biggest Knight Novel reader on Coral Island.

He has an authoritative say in how Knight Novel is adapted and knows what scenes people love to watch.

……

In the evening, the Counts finally arrived from Coral City and the dinner began shortly afterwards. At the dinner, the Count spoke of preparations for this year's pioneering order, which the Grand Duke may be preparing to launch for a longer period this year, according to a message from a court envoy.

“Now you and I are both Sky Knights, and with the Snowbeast Squad attacking the city, we can compete for the success of the battle and believe it will not be worse than those Marquises.” He hesitated, "In order to gain an active advantage in the title contest, this year's pioneering order cannot be underestimated. ”

After last year's pioneering order to capture a Castle of the Count, the Coral Island Knights did not continue their battle, fearing prominence.

In the unlikely event that more than one Sky Knight is sieged, only William Lee is a wave swordsman, difficult to resist.

But with Lester this year, no one else knows, and William Lee knows very well, that Lester's fighting power far exceeds that of him, and the two of them together, the general situation can handle the past.

So...

The high profile has to be high profile.

Lister nodded and responded: "I will do everything in my power to help my father compete for battle success, but I hope that the family fleet will support me more in transporting the serfs. My territory is being developed vigorously and requires a large number of serfs, which I intend to receive mainly this year. ”

“How many serfs are ready to be transported? ”

“Twenty thousand is the least, and I hope to be able to return 30,000 serfs if food is also available. ”

There are many industries in Hema Island, and with the potential of territorial development, 100,000 residents can easily digest them. The main constraint, however, is food, which obviously cannot be bridged by farming and fishing alone. Today, more than 30,000 people live in the Territory, consuming food every day.

Another 20,000 serfs have to be transported back and raised from all sides - the potential for continued pressing in seafood, where seaweed and giant algae can be eaten, and where giant algae taste poorly, but at least they can replace livestock feed. Combined with the massive production of dhow boats, offshore fishing is on the rise.

Eating fish alone is not good, but it can be exchanged with Tulip Chamberlain for food.

In sum, in the calculations of territorial officials, 20,000 more serfs do not cause territorial famine. But no more can be done, and substantial food supplements must be transported from the field.

The Count was surprised: "Want to transport 30,000 serfs? This is not a small number, Jonas, Trick's territory, a total population of 60,000, 50,000, and you're less than a year old, and the population is going to exceed them. Is the territory really digestible? ”

“It is not a problem to accommodate an additional 20,000 people in the Territory with a current population of more than 35,100, as long as food is available, 30,000 is also a small matter. ”

“As long as you have confidence, I will arrange a family fleet and tilt the main luck towards you. ”

At this point, Reeves intervened: "Lister, your Black Horse Island also accumulates a lot of double mast cargo ships that can be merged with the family fleet and marched together. ”

“My fleet is too small for 15 ships, leaving at least seven for territorial shipments, and I can only send eight to merge with the family fleet. ”

“Eight ships are also quite a bit of luck. ”

“Then it's settled. ”

So.

Continue until the end of the banquet.

The Count held this banquet, mainly to simply ventilate with Lester, before he could venture to the Blue Sky Engine Mountain Palace to figure out how to participate in this pioneering order.

At night.

Father and son talked in the study alone for a while.

The main thing is the Count asks, "Lester, how's your strength going? ”

“I feel like I'm making a lot of progress, and every day is a new step, and my strength should far exceed that of a full Sky Knight. When hunting bootmouth storks, it's not too hard. ”

“So strong already? ”

“Yes, Father, do you need to think about it? ”

“Forget it.” The Count coughed, shifted the subject, "speaking of this boot-mouthed giant stork, I think it should hunt down the purple sand crocodile on the island. I went to see the habitat of the purple sand crocodile and there were signs of intense fighting... I was waiting for the purple sand crocodile to breed offspring, but I didn't want to destroy it in the mouth of this big bird. ”

Though meat eventually fell into Lester's mouth, the purple sand crocodile was indeed killed by the boot-mouthed stork - Lester was just watching.

His conscience was slightly disturbed.

Think about it and say, "If I had the chance, I would go around the mainland forests and meet the right warcraft to capture one for your father. ”

The Count's eyebrows rose: "It bothers you. ”

“It should be. ”

Father and son smile at each other, which is kind of heartwarming, but at this moment, we don't know each other's thoughts.
