The Defeated Dragon

Liszt did not refute the fact that the Earl attributed his success to his and Melissa's noble blood.

Always give each other face.

He changed the subject and said, Father, how do you think about the sale of rubber?

I tested the rubber you provided yesterday, and it is indeed an extraordinary item. It is more impressive than glutinous rice juice, and it is also more versatile. The earl pondered for a while, and then said, Tulip Fort gained a lot in the Battle of Ironshoe Island. There are few supplies, and the dependence on gold coins is not high, I can buy a batch of rubber to relieve your pressure.

Rubber is a specialty of Heima Island. The output is not high, and rubber cutting will cause great damage to rubber trees, so the price will not be cheap.

Is it more expensive than glutinous rice?

Glutinous rice is a kind of grain and can be eaten, but glutinous rice juice is more useful for watering castles. The Marquis of Leather Island, Ramirez White Glutinous Rice, is a family built on glutinous rice.

I think it must be more expensive than glutinous rice, because rubber can also build cities, and the quality of fortification is not inferior to that of glutinous rice juice. It is slightly better than glutinous rice juice in terms of speed, hardness, and adhesion. But rubber can not only build cities, it can stick It can be combined with any object, build a ship, repair armor, all can be used!

If it wasn't for the lack of money for such treasures, Liszt would not be willing to take them out.

The count looked at Liszt, and asked inexplicably, How many good things are still hidden on your Black Horse Island?

Well, this one is indeed a special product. Liszt responded lightly, The most important thing is that the development work is better, like the rubber of the rubber tree, most people may only regard it as the sap from the tree, and not to discover its usefulness.

In fact, he was very proud, because there were so many specialties in the territory.

Adhesive rubber with infinite possibilities in crops, bramble wood with ironwood quality, fragrant coconut fruit for direct drinking, green tea trees that have not yet been planted on a large scale, smoked grass that can attract invisible dragons, and corn cobs that may become corngrass.

In terms of potions, there are black tulips, the symbol of the flag of the territory, the flame mushrooms and the ice and snow flame mushrooms grown from mushrooms, the potion thorns that can grow quickly among thorns, and the auxiliary drug species nightshade that has just begun to be cultivated on a large scale.

In the breeding industry, green caterpillars and mallard ducks will become a major specialty. Black pearl clam is also a good specialty. Needless to say, black blood BMW is a precious specialty. Dragon breed cows are also precious specialties. Should be a specialty.

In terms of industry, the products of Huolong Brick Factory are all specialties.

Slate, culverts, bricks, and other fired products under development, ceramics, glass, cement, lime, etc.; distilled liquor and fresh flowers, bathroom products, fresh flowers and soap, and future white paper.

There is no need to mention food, Huahua Town has always been known as the source of food in Coral Island, and countless delicacies have been spread from here.

Others can't wait for special products, but Liszt is troubled by the fact that there are too many special products to develop, and many special products are simply left alone.

So for now, with so many specialties in Huahua Town and Heima Island, he is still so poor that he can hardly afford books.

If you want to discover good things, you first need good things to exist... the count took a deep breath, suppressing his jealousy towards his son, How many elves do you have now?

Well, what about this? Liszt pondered, how should he answer.

The earl said dissatisfied, Do you still need to hide it from me?

I have 24 elf worms...and 2 more elves.

2 elves?

One is Zyra, as you have seen before, and the other is a useless mangrove elf. He said modestly, the current Nami is not useless, and raising mallard ducks is inseparable from Nami's ability.

The Count was taken aback.

Then he sighed: I remember when I gave you the entrustment, I only gave you four elf worms. Later, because you found the black tulip, I rewarded you with another elf worm. In other words, you found nineteen elf worms yourself? Got two elves?

The source of elf worms is more complicated. Two elf worms were born from the potted plants given to me by my grandmother. I contracted a barley worm outside the nameless castle of Mane City. Father, do you remember the six-headed king sea snake? According to the records in the magic book, four snake blood fruit worms were poured out with its blood.

Liszt calculated: Aside from these, there are not many elf worms born in the territory, only 13... And Zyra is still the evolution of the thorn worm you gifted.

That is.

The number of elves bred by Huahua Town and Heima Island is 13 elves and 1 elf.

Thirteen do you still think it's too few? Since I took over Coral Island, the 20 years of hard work have produced a total of more than 200 elf worms, and more than ten elf worms have been bred in a year! The count tried his best to calm his emotions. The point is, I've never found a wild pokemon.

Liszt wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere.

But he was directly interrupted by the earl: I used to think that 'the glory of the knight' was just an inspiring slogan, but now I believe that there is indeed a glory of the knight, and it obviously favors you... Go back, don't let the glory of the knight live up to you, I look forward to your future!

He quickly dismissed Liszt, not even discussing the price of rubber.

When the door is closed.

The study fell silent.

The count leaned his body completely back in the chair, his eyes gradually turned to an unknown place in time and space, and said softly: Melissa, your most worried son, has grown to full-fledged and will fly high into the sky at any time... It is this kid who has the heart and soul. Too many, Marquis Merlin wrote to tell me that he was promoted to Elite Land Knight last year...

The voice fell into mist.

After a while, he raised his voice again: It only took half a year to go from an ordinary land knight to an elite land knight... There are several kinds of potions in his territory, and he even took in a magician who specializes in making potions... Our son , I am afraid that I have performed better than when I was young!

...

Actually, I should keep a low profile and not irritate the Earl.

Riding on the back of the chocobo Loki, recalling the scene where the earl was almost on the verge of a crisis, Liszt shook his head and sighed: Forget it, let Galtai come over tomorrow, and have a good discussion with Levi's and Frank, and try to come up with a deal. An appropriate price will ease the fiscal situation of the territory.”

The powerful properties of rubber are obvious to all, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to sell the price.

Returning to the territory, before he was ready to inspect the corngrass field, he received a report from the administrative office that serf Old Boer found a strange patch of corngrass in his own corngrass field, with huge flower spikes blooming on the top of his head.

Isaiah further explained: My lord, we have no way of judging whether this piece of corngrass is breeding corngrass insects. They look a little strange, but there are too many of them. There are more than 20 corngrass trees, all of which are blooming. Huge flower spikes...it is unlikely to conceive more than 20 elf worms at the same time.

Flower spikes blooming on the top of the head? Liszt frowned, which seemed to be different from the corn on the cob he was expecting.
