Traitor Summoning System [Infrastructure]

Chapter 161 Spring Blooms, Racecourse, Night Fishing...

Winter is over, spring is warm and flowers are blooming.

Leonard was walking on the streets of Jianming City and saw many children playing on the side of the road.

In recent years, due to the guarantee of survival and the improvement of medical and health conditions, the number of newborns in the territory has increased.

In recent years, Leonard has always paid attention to the cultivation of talents in all aspects. The first batch of people who rushed to the shelves were rushed by Leonard, but now after so many years, some talents who are not so quick have finally been cultivated.

Now Jianming City has become the largest city in the mainland in terms of population alone.

After all, Leonard absorbed too many refugees.

These refugees were properly resettled, and Leonard allocated them to various towns, allocated houses, food, and jobs to them, and selected those with unique talents for development.

He Shen once proposed to rebuild Jianming City to make Jianming City more grand and magnificent, which would enhance Leonard's majesty.But Leonard did not agree, he still focused more on infrastructure for ordinary people.

"Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it." He Shen said, "Compared with my suggestion, the Lord Lord's approach can win the support of the people and enhance his majesty. He is worthy of the Lord Lord."

"It's all about people's livelihood." Leonard said, "The people's livelihood condenses the hearts of the people, and the hearts of the people condense the power of the people."

He Shen immediately wrote down this sentence, saying that every bachelor who is studying in the college should know this sentence.

Leonard nodded in agreement.

Spring is coming soon, and the improvement of the second round of steam engines has been completed.

Leonard intends to try it in the mine first, and then further research the steam train on the basis of improving the steam engine.

The demand for steel has increased again, requiring more money and manpower.

Fortunately, Leonard is not short of people now.

Today is the last day in Jianming City, and Leonard will leave for Blazing Sun City tomorrow.

Now one person is under one person and over ten thousand people—although this one person is also open to discussion, but Leonard did not hold a grand banquet, or do some special things that fit his status at this time as a farewell.He simply wandered around Jianming City with his subordinates, looking at the current Jianming City and what he has gained in the past few years. This is the best farewell for him.

He walked into the racecourse, and Lawson, the person in charge of the racecourse, received him respectfully.Lawson, the person in charge of the racecourse, comes from Eagle Bruce, who was originally a slave of Eagle Bruce raising war horses.He can get today's high position is inseparable from his talent.

His parents were also slaves of the Bruce family. He grew up with horses and inherited his parents' work of raising horses when he grew up.He can understand what the horse is saying, and his skills in raising horses are top-notch.

In the past two years, the merchants of Little Thorn Castle went to Eagle Bruce's territory to sell horses, and they placed a large order, so the merchants of Little Thorn Castle proposed to increase some gifts.

Under the influence of Leonard, the merchants of Little Thorn Castle understood that their lords liked people with all kinds of talents, and they didn't care about their birth, so they got Lawson.

After Lawson came to Little Thorn Castle, he showed his talents to the fullest. He was promoted very quickly, and within a few months he became the person in charge of Little Thorn Castle Racecourse.This is something he never dreamed of.But he doesn't have time to think about whether he is in a dream now, because he is too busy.

It's just that sometimes when he is idle at dusk and drinks a cup of coffee against the sunset of the racecourse, Lawson will feel a little dazed.

What is the dream, the life that dominates many people now, or the life of a miserable slave in the past?He could no longer tell.

But the only thing that can be felt is the burning blood in his chest.

The future is full of hope.

How touching this sentence was for him who was once a slave.

……

Leonard took a brief tour of the racecourse under the leadership of Lawson, the person in charge of the racecourse. Lawson introduced Leonard to the recent visit to the racecourse. At first, he stuttered, but Leonard did not blame him at all.After talking for a while, his narration became more and more fluent, and his voice began to be full of confidence.

Recently, Eagle Bruce sent two high-quality foals, and Leonard ordered them to be trained well, and they will be used as mounts for Lu Bu and Zhang Hongfan in the future.

"Take me to see those two horses." Leonard ordered.

"Yes, my lord." Lawson said.

Lawson led them to the place where the foal was kept. The old groom who raised the foal was more or less glib: "Master Lawson, don't worry. I take care of the foal very carefully. Compared with my son Take care."

"Don't be so glib." Lawson felt a little embarrassed, "Report carefully."

The groom said: "Come on, according to your instructions, fresh grass, forage, oil cakes, bran, bean cakes, corn kernels... These are fed in turn. If there is any problem, I will report to you immediately. I will feed it myself every day. Don't worry. Well, I treat him more than I treat the lord!" He still couldn't help but glib.

Lawson's eyes darkened when he heard this, and he almost fell down.

As a slave back then, he saw too much of the situation where he was tortured to death without saying a word, and now he almost suffered from sequelae.

As a result, Leonard laughed "puchi".

Lu Bu beside him couldn't help but said, "Do you know who this lord is?"

The groom was a little confused: "Who are you?"

Leonard suppressed a smile and said, "My name is Leonard Longsword Thorn."

groom:"……"

Now it was the groom's turn that his eyes were darkened and he nearly fell over.

After this little episode, Leonard and Lu Bu returned to Little Thorn Castle.

Lu Bu said, "Aren't you going to punish the groom?"

"Why punishment?" Leonard asked.

"It's not because of offending you," Lu Bu said, "I know you don't mind the offense."

"Why is that?" Leonard asked.

"A smooth-talking person is not qualified for an important position." Lu Bu said.

Leonard smiled, "Your statement is like those chicken soup stories where the president of a big company pretends to be an ordinary person and walks around the grassroots, and then dismisses and promotes some people at will based on one-sided perception. It seems quite It’s chicken soup, but it’s actually quite nonsense.”

Lu Bu: "Hmm... It's strange that I understand what the lord wants to express."

"Whether the groom is qualified for the job has to be decided by his superiors. I am not as good as the person in charge of the horse farm in this aspect of judgment, so it is better for me not to intervene." Leonard said.

Lu Bu nodded: "Understood."

……

After arranging all the work for the new year and conducting the final review, Leonard returned to the north.

But he didn't go back to the imperial city directly, but went to Lengshuiyu Town first.

The ocean here has never been polluted, and the species resources in the offshore area are already very rich.

Under Leonard's order, after half a year of cultivation, the fishery became more and more abundant.

In one net, in addition to shrimp, crab and fish, you can also see a lot of seaweed.

In a normal fishing ground, marine plants can basically be equivalent to seaweed, except for seaweed, there are only about ten percent of other marine plants.Seaweed produces organic matter through photosynthesis and becomes the basis for the growth of everything in the ocean.

The vigorous growth of seaweed in Lengshui Yuzhen fishery indicates the prosperous prospect of the fishery.

When Leonard, Zhang Hongfan and his party arrived in Lengshuiyu Town, it was just when the sun was setting.It took them two days and one night from the small Thorn Fort to the cold water fish town in the northernmost part of the mainland. The speed was more than twice as fast as before, and the comfort level increased exponentially.

After a brief meeting with the mayor of Lengshuiyu Town, Leonard went directly to Lengshuiyu Town Fishing Ground.

As the sun set and the sea breeze blew, he felt a sense of peace in his heart.

Zhang Hongfan and the mayor kept talking beside him. Zhang Hongfan was actually the number one leader in Lengshuiyu Town. He left for a winter this time, so there were many things that needed to be discussed and understood.

The sun set a little lower, and the sea water slapped the beach calmly and regularly in the twilight, and the waves under the night could not be seen clearly.

Zhang Hongfan walked up to Leonard and said, "The weather looks good tonight. Do you want to go out to sea?"

"Night fishing?" Leonard asked with interest.

"It should be." Zhang Hongfan said, "All the supplies are complete, and the sea at night has a special flavor."

"Okay." Leonard happily agreed.

The mayor quickly arranged everything. Leonard, Zhang Hongfan, Lu Bu and several fishermen boarded a rather luxurious fishing boat together.

There is a warm and comfortable resting place in the cabin, a kitchen no worse than on land, and the mayor has prepared a wine cabinet that will make any alcoholic's eyes straight.

When it got dark, the lights on the boat were turned on.

This ship was specially built to serve the nobles, and there was no shortage of lamp oil on the sea, so the whole ship looked even more resplendent in the firelight.Of course, these lights are not all decorations, they also play a certain role in luring fish.

Leonard, Lu Bu, and Zhang Hongfan got on the deck, and each of them held a wooden fishing rod in their hands, ready to go fishing at night.

Don't underestimate this kind of traditional fishing rod. Handmade wooden fishing rods are no worse than modern industrial fishing rods if they are exquisitely crafted and smoked well.

Of course, this is just a self-comforting statement in desperation. This kind of handmade wooden fishing rod cannot catch particularly large fish. Secondly, the hook cannot be thrown too deep. Modern industrial fishing rods often put a Five 60-meter lines are pulled up with electric twisters. If it is hand-cranked, it will take 1 years.

Zhang Hongfan is a good fisherman, so Leonard and Lu Bu asked him for advice.After listening to it for a while, Leonard felt that it was quite simple, so he threw the hook and wanted to try it.

Soon the hook felt like it was being pulled, and Leonard quickly reeled in the line, only to find that a piece of the bait had been bitten off, and no fish took the bait.

"Looks like the fish is smarter than I thought," Leonard said, throwing the hook down again.

After a while, another fish was biting the hook. After pulling it up, the bait was almost eaten.

"It looks harder than I thought." Leonard scratched his head and said.

Lu Bu closed the rod, and Leonardo longed his neck to see that Lu Bu had gained nothing. As a result, after Lu Bu took the hook, under the illumination of the deck wind lamp, a sturgeon was hopping energetically.

The fish is brown-gray on the back and standard white on the belly. It looks a bit like a Siberian sturgeon and a bit like a Sturgeon's sturgeon, but the details are different.I don't know if its roe is as delicious as Siberian sturgeon caviar after being made into caviar.

"Good luck." Leonard was very happy, "It seems that dinner tonight is settled."

This sturgeon is very big. Generally speaking, the meat quality of the sturgeon is very good. Lu Bu's sturgeon weighs more than 40 kilograms, which is enough for a good meal.

More than 40 kilograms is actually nothing in a sturgeon. In 2016, fishermen in Heilongjiang once caught a Sturgeon that weighed 400 kilograms.

But it was thanks to Lu Bu that he was able to catch such a heavy sturgeon.Absolutely not if it's Leonard.

"Haha." Lu Bu was also very happy.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Hongfan also caught a fish, which was cod, and it was a standard cold-water cod. Leonard recognized this fish from the yellow longitudinal stripes.The meat of cod is white and tender, and it tastes very fresh and tender. Many countries in the world regard it as a main edible sea fish.

Zhang Hongfan skillfully threw the cod onto the boat. This cod is [-] centimeters long, which is considered a big one among cod.

Pan-fried cod with fresh lemon, fried cod with pesto, cod cakes... Leonard has already had a bunch of cod recipes in his mind.

It looks like there's plenty for dinner tonight, whether or not Leonard catches the fish.

Then Lu Bu's luck was not so good. It took him a long time to catch the second fish of the day, which was red fish, scientifically known as red fin snapper.This is a marine fish with a wide range of habitats. Redfin snappers can be seen in reef areas, reef-sand mixed areas, mud-sand areas or open sea.This fish likes to hunt at night, so it is a matter of course that you can catch it when night fishing.

The red-finned snapper is quite delicious, both fried and boiled in soup, but the fly in the ointment is that this fish is a bit too small, which is why Lu Bu's luck is not so good.

Regretfully, Lu Bu put the red fish into the barrel, and then hooked it again.

Leonard thought from the side, it's a pity that this red fish is too small, but if he fished by himself, he would be happy to catch even a small red fish, so let him catch one, any fish will do.

Time passed quickly, they chatted while fishing, and ate a pan-fried cod in the middle.

It was the big cod that Zhang Hongfan caught.

Soak the fresh cod in the wine for a while, then mix it with oyster sauce and black pepper to make a juice, then fry it in oil, pour the juice, and finally squeeze a little lemon juice, the taste of the fried cod is very good.

The crispy surface, the aroma of pepper, the fragrance of spirits, and the fresh aroma of cod, these flavors create a sense of layering on the tip of the tongue. When you eat it, you can only feel the layers of deliciousness and enjoy it.One bite, the first thing you feel is the thick meat, and then the white cod gravy overflows, and the taste of the seasoning jumps on the tip of the tongue, rippling on the taste buds, and then licks off the remaining hot gravy on the lips. It just doesn't feel great.

However, this is not presented as a main meal, but a small snack during fishing.

While eating the pan-fried cod, Zhang Hongfan praised loudly, and then he suddenly tightened his grip on the fishing rod over there, and it turned out that another fish had taken the bait.

Leonard looked jealously at Zhang Hongfan skillfully reeling in the line, pulling with the fish.In the end, Zhang Hongfan stuck the fishing rod in his abdomen and leaned back suddenly. A skipjack was pulled out of the water.

It stands to reason that bonito should not like this place, but the ocean is connected, and sometimes warm water fish swim here.

If you eat bonito directly, it is quite ordinary. Compared with other delicious sea fish, the taste of bonito is not ranked high.Bonito is generally eaten as a variety of products, such as dried bonito that has been dehydrated, smoked, and fermented.

Dried bonito is very hard, like wood, and has become the world's hardest dried fish in the Guinness Book of Records.The way to eat this hardest dried fish is also unusual-eat it with a planer shavings.

This is what we usually call wooden fish flowers.

The bonito flakes on top of the octopus balls are made from this kind of bonito.

Looking at this bonito, Leonard thought that he could marinate a batch of dried bonito and make it into bonito flakes. Bonito flakes are rich in nutrients and delicious, and can be used as seasonings.Put some when cooking soup and noodles, and the taste will be awesome.

By the way, how hard is dried bonito?Leonard used to see someone on station B make a knife out of bonito, which can cut vegetables and pierce through cans, which is outrageous.Detective Conan has a new murder weapon. After killing someone, he can eat the murder weapon on the spot, and it has become an unsolved case ever since.

Bleeding the skipjack away, they continued fishing.

Finally, Leonard also took the bait.

Leonard started to pull very excitedly, but after pulling for a while, he was out of breath. He handed it to Lu Bu: "You come."

"Okay." Lu Bu felt it after catching a few fish, so he stuck the fishing rod into his abdomen like Zhang Hongfan, and then began to pull with the fish.

As expected of Lu Bu's innate supernatural power, he quickly pulled the fish up.

It was a big eel, curved and nearly one meter by visual inspection.It's such a big meal to eat!Leonard took a closer look, and his joy was gone.

This yellow-brown body surface, this dense dark brown spots, this is not a sea field eel!

The scientific name of sea field eel is yellow-sided naked-breasted eel. Its meat has strong toxins. After eating, the symptoms of poisoning are severe, and even death. There have been reports in the news that people died of eating this fish by mistake.

Leonard lost interest and threw the fish back into the sea, so what can he do, he can only fish again.

It was almost time, and the group had a sumptuous dinner.

Crisp and chewy braised sturgeon with the rest steamed straight away.The red fish is made into fish fillets, which are tender and smooth, full of meaty fragrance and endless aftertaste.Finally, golden and crispy cod fillets.Cod is a frequent visitor on Leonard's table, but Leonard feels that no matter how many times he eats it, he will never get bored. The delicious and fragrant cod can be said to be eaten a hundred times.

The three enjoyed the delicious food while admiring the charming ocean night.

The sea under the moonlight at night is like bright silk with reflective folds, and those fragmented rays of light are rippling with the wind, gathered and separated, because it is too magical, it is difficult to use subjective words such as beauty or ugliness to evaluate for a while, but it is magnificent , Shocking - no doubt about it.

After eating, we fished for a while.

Leonard's luck returned. He hooked several cods one after another. Most of them were pulled up with the help of Lu Bu or Zhang Hongfan. Under Zhang Hongfan's guidance, he himself caught a sea bass independently. I am very happy.

The group of people made a fuss for a while, and Leonard didn't feel sleepy until the middle of the night, so he collected his fishing rod and went back to the cabin to sleep.

There is the melodious sound of waves in the sea, the body swaying back and forth with the boat, as if in the mother's cradle, and the moist and pleasant air on the sea.

Leonard entered a deep dream with the sound of the waves.

It's a good day.
