The Defeated Dragon

The heavy snow fell one after another, and soon the Huahua Town was wrapped in silver, but the road was unobstructed.

The officials are organizing the serfs who have nothing to do, and they are constantly clearing the snow on the roads, so that the roads extending in all directions in the entire town are unimpeded.

At the same time, some roads are still under construction, and the rocks produced by the Blizzard beasts are continuously smashed into stones and paved on the road. The main road of Huahua Town has been expanded to the width that four carriages can drive side by side, and the roads between the villages are also large enough to accommodate two carriages to drive side by side.

When other small towns are generally covered with dirt roads, Huahua Town has already achieved modernization in terms of transportation.

Because the lord, Viscount Liszt, has always kept in mind the slogan If you want to get rich, build roads first. If the roads are not smooth, the development of Huahua Town will always be restricted.

Although infrastructure construction needs to burn a lot of money, it is absolutely icing on the cake for economic development.

Even Liszt has a plan to cooperate with Tulip Fort to build a gravel road from Flower Town to Coral City, further shortening the travel time between the two places. However, this road is costly, and the Earl may not be able to agree.

At least until the huge economic volume of Heima Island has not exploded and the trade between the two places continues to increase, there is a high probability that this road will not be completed.

People in this world do not have the concept of infrastructure in their heads.

Serfs walked on gravel roads or muddy roads; whether they stepped on green grass or stepped on feces and sewage. For the nobles, what's the difference?

Only Liszt will desperately build infrastructure.

On Heima Island, he has planned a number of future four-horse carriage side-by-side roads, referred to as four-lane roads.

There must be a four-lane road between every two small towns. In the future, after the development and upgrading of the port town and Xingang town, a direct six-lane road will be built.

He believes that the industry of Heima Island in the future needs such road support.

...

Just in this day.

Another good news came.

The serf who discovered the pea cordyceps reported to the administrative office the miraculous changes in his peas. The influence of the pea cordyceps can make the peas still grow in autumn and winter, but as the pea cordyceps is removed,

The remaining peas in his family can no longer grow vigorously.

Now that the bean sprouts are dead, the serfs are going to pull out the bean sprouts and collect the mature peas to make seeds. These peas are well developed and are excellent seeds.

but.

Just after he pulled out the root of the pea, he found that there were tumors the size of fingernails on the root of the pea. The serf remembered that he heard the lord who came to transplant the Cordyceps mentioned that there are rhizobia in the roots of legumes, which can increase the yield. So he excitedly reported his discovery.

The officials of the administrative office have naturally heard Lister explain the benefits of rhizobia to soil and plants.

So immediately report to the castle and report to Liszt.

Many nodules the size of fingernails? Liszt understood at the time that this was the peas that produce rhizobia rewarded in the previous smoke mission.

Immediately led the retinue knights, walked to the serf's house, and saw this kind of peas.

The roots of peas are very fluffy, and there are indeed a large number of root nodules on them. Not to mention the large number, they are still very large. Nodules are more abundant than those artificially inoculated soybean roots that Lister saw on earth.

He immediately ordered the serf to pull out all the peas, and found that there were more than 20 pea plants with abundant nodules on the roots, and the remaining peas were very ordinary.

Collect all these root nodules and carefully preserve them. When you sow peas, soybeans, peanuts, etc. in the spring of next year, remember to use the soil mixed with these root nodules for planting. In addition, all the bean seeds of these peas will be bought for next year's key cultivation. Peas, planted near the pea cordyceps.

Yes, my lord. The official hurriedly recorded Liszt's instructions.

The new variety of pea was named bacteria pea by Liszt, which means pea that can produce rhizobia.

It is believed that with the continuous cultivation of fungus peas, the Rhizobium bacteria that Lister hopes will be produced in large quantities, increasing the yield of all leguminous plants and improving the fertility of the soil.

Now the territory has more and more new varieties of crops.

On the way back, he suddenly thought that in the past two years, many new varieties of crops had been born on this land.

The first black tulip, followed by corngrass and smoked grass (smoky grass probably doesn’t count, it should grow in other areas, after all, Liszt knew it from a knight novel), followed by flame mushrooms, ice and snow flames Mushrooms, and then fast-growing thorns.

Fast-growing thorns started the trend of crop variation and formed Lister's unique naming method.

Five new varieties of fast-growing thorns, fast-growing poisonous thorns, fast-growing thorny thorns, fast-growing iron thorns, and fast-growing magic thorns were formed at once.

Two new varieties of rubber trees have been formed: fruit rubber and fan rubber (a new species of Cordyceps, which is still unknown at present).

Corngrass forms three new varieties of corn, oil corn and cob corn.

Now pea has formed a new variety of fungus pea.

In addition, there is also nightshade nightshade, the adjuvant of nightshade nightshade variation. These new mutant varieties of crops are named by adding nature and real name to form a new name.

It's really an interesting name, with a distinctive personality, clear at a glance, and concise. He is very satisfied with his naming ability.

...

Mushroom pea is just a small episode.

Due to the chaos caused by the arrival of a large number of new serfs, the territory quickly became stable, and Liszt did not need to worry about it. He resumed his usual schedule and lived an ordinary but fulfilling life. The greatest joy recently is to train Zyra, the thorny elf, and let her become an elf again.

Without the reminder of the smoke mission, Liszt probably couldn't think of how to educate the elves.

He only thinks that elves are simple farming tools, and he doesn't want to carry out thought reform. Now think about it, sometimes spiritual power should not be underestimated. Humans can be brainwashed and educated, which can explode a huge work productivity. Why can't elves also be brainwashed and educated.

He has experience in educating Blizzard beasts.

Therefore, to educate Zyra, enjoy it, constantly guide it, and vent its anger in the planting of thorns. After five days of training, Zyra finally fully adapted to the new behavior, whenever she could not understand other elves or was irritated.

It will run to the garden of thorns, consume magic power, and promote the growth of thorns.

Good boy! Liszt will give it some loving encouragement, and reward it with a word of encouragement, a caress, or a little food.

Zyra was delighted immediately.

Then he called out the smoke mission.

Complete the task and reward a thorn elf.

No accident, I have spent every day in the Garden of Thorns recently, and the reward for the smoke mission was indeed born in the Garden of Thorns. It was a fast-growing demon thorn, which had undergone changes, and a large tumor grew on its branches. The magic power gathered inside, apparently breeding elf worms.

It seems that it has been conceived for many days, it doesn't seem to be conceived just now, and it doesn't seem to be affected by Zyra? Liszt was puzzled.

Brambles are evergreen plants that grow slowly in winter.

Because the potion itself has magical power, Liszt hadn't noticed the abnormality of this potion tree before. Judging from the degree of its magic power gathering, it has been conceived for at least half a month.

Anyway.

The appearance of this thorn worm came very timely and could alleviate the shortage of potions. 8)
