But since Bals said so, Isabella felt that she should buy more.
By the way, I also got to know the customs of Onafas a little bit.
Isabella is going out, Andrean as Isabella's knight.Naturally, he went out with Isabella.
After the two left the castle, they headed towards the city.
As soon as I arrived in the city, Isabella could already tell that this city is really prosperous, no doubt it is a commercial city. The commercial atmosphere here is strong, and there are all kinds of stores everywhere, among which fruit shops are the main ones. Sweet aromas of fruit.
The shelf life of fruits in this world is relatively long. Generally, fruits can be picked for half a month in summer without rot, so it is more convenient in transportation. Many foreign businessmen will come here to import fruits, and then sell them all over the country. , and even people from other countries will come to buy, so Isabella saw a lot of foreigners here, as for how to distinguish between natives and foreigners, it is natural from the skin color, characteristics and clothing.
Anyway, Isabella has lived in this country for so long, so she still has a certain understanding of this country.
Although Isabella's body is not from her own country, she is generally similar to the race in the northern part of the country.
The races in the south and the north are relatively different.
Probably because of the geographic location, the further south the race is, the darker the skin color will be.
Isabella even saw people resembling other-world Arabs appear.
Isabella has never been in contact with these people or understood this knowledge, so she is quite surprised.
Isabella bought a lot of fruits, and I have to admit that the fruits here are quite delicious.
As a rare way for ordinary people to obtain sweetness, the sales of fruits are quite objective.
Isabella took Baals' words to heart, so besides buying a lot of fruits, she also bought various supplies.
After preparing these, several hours had passed, and Isabella returned to the castle.
When Isabella and Andrean returned to the castle, several carriages were lined up at the gate.
Bals said to Isabella who came back, "Is there anything else you want to take?"
Isabella shook her head and said, "No more." Due to no fixed place, Isabella would habitually organize all her things and put them in the interspatial ring when she left a certain place.
Bals nodded and said: "Since there are no more, let's go. The road to Geno Ling is not too short, and it will probably be evening when we get there."
Isabella was stunned for a moment, then looked at the other carriages and asked, "These are also people who want to go together?"
Bals nodded and said: "Because the former lord of Geno has committed a crime, his mansion has long been abandoned, and it will take a certain amount of time to renovate. Naturally, some manpower is needed. In addition, his servants have already been dismissed, and appropriate servants are also necessary. of."
"..." Isabella asked cautiously, "I don't need to pay for the employment of these people."
She had already figured it out in her heart. If Bals dared to say that these people wanted her to hire them, she would refuse directly.
"..." Bals looked at Isabella's appearance, sighed softly and said, "Don't worry, I will pay for the money." Although logically speaking, it is true It should be Isabella who came to pay the money, but seeing Isabella's miserly appearance that cannot be concealed, he is sure that if he said this, Isabella would definitely not let these people go.
Anyway, it doesn't cost much to hire these people, so let him do it.
Knowing that she didn't need to pay the money, Isabella got into the carriage happily, and said, "That's good, then let's go."
Not to mention, although Isabella doesn't seem to be interested in those territories, Isabella is still a little excited when she really thinks that she can manage such a large area.
Walking on the road, Isabella suddenly thought that she seemed...to be a landlord soon.
Thinking of this, Isabella's eyes suddenly lit up.
It's true, she only reacted at this time.
After thinking of this, Isabella suddenly looked forward to it.
Bals shared a carriage with Isabella and could see Isabella's emotional changes, so he asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
Isabella smiled and said: "It's nothing, I thought of something interesting?" Then Isabella asked Bals again: "Speaking of which, is it really okay for Master Bals to follow me? Will it affect you? Practicing?"
Bals shook his head and said: "It's okay, I've reached the bottleneck of my level, instead of staying in one place, it's better to walk around, and fighting the strong is also one of the ways. That's why I went to the imperial brother to assign The reason why so many tasks are given to me."
Isabella blinked her eyes and said, "So that's the bottleneck, well, this is really troublesome, so I hope you break through the bottleneck as soon as possible." Isabella also reached the bottleneck, when she was a pure human At that time, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get through the sense of despair. Even now, Isabella still has lingering fears when I think about it.
Of course, at that time, Isabella's situation was in crisis, coupled with her young age and weak mind, it was understandable to be desperate there. Now, even if Isabella really encountered a bottleneck, she would calmly go Cope...should be.
Bals sighed, then smiled and said: "It's not easy to break through the bottleneck between the eighth and ninth levels? Although there is only a class gap between the eighth and ninth levels, it is also extremely difficult. It is the first step from mortals to the realm of gods. Countless people are trapped here. I am still here. I don’t know if I can break through in my lifetime. Fortunately, I have part of the elven blood and have enough time. Go explore."
Isabella smiled and said, "If it's Mr. Barrs, he will definitely be able to step into that field. I have this feeling."
Bals nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you for your kind words."
After that, Isabella asked Bals some questions about martial arts, and Bals also explained everything he could to Isabella.
Isabella can be said to have benefited a lot.
Isabella's previous practice has always been explored by herself, so she naturally took a lot of detours.
And Bals, after hearing that Isabella was only 14 years old and had been groping for her own cultivation before, couldn't help sighing that Isabella is the real genius.
Isabella was naturally embarrassed, after all, she was able to get to this point because she had obtained Christina's blood by herself.
But thinking of Christina, Isabella couldn't help but sighed.
She still didn't come back, and Isabella couldn't help complaining in her heart.
He clearly agreed that he would come back to find her soon.
The road to Geno Ling is indeed difficult. There are many forests in the south, and when there are more forests, there will be more beasts.
In the south, although there are many monsters, they are far from wild beasts, especially the ferocious beasts with many sub-dragon species in the south. Although they are sub-dragon species, they have nothing to do with the dragon race. Most of these sub-dragon species have no wisdom. A beast without magic.
The road in the forest is not easy to walk. Apart from the beasts, the ground in the forest is also uneven. If the carriage prepared by Bals had not been equipped with anti-shock measures, Isabella would probably fall apart.
Because the journey was quite boring, Isabella opened the curtain and looked outside.
The weather in the south is rather sultry, but fortunately Isabella can use ice magic. She gathers water elements around her and keeps her temperature at a comfortable level.
Isabella looked at the forest outside. The vegetation here was obviously different from that in the north. Many of them were tree species that Isabella had never seen before. While observing these strange tree species, Isabella suddenly saw Something familiar to her.
cocoa tree.
It was definitely a cocoa tree, and Isabella would never admit it wrong.
Isabella's eyes widened.
It was the first time she saw a cocoa tree in this world.
She always thought that there was no such tree in this world.
Isabella liked to eat chocolate very much in her previous life, because she loved to eat chocolate, she even studied how to make chocolate. In her previous life, she was bored and bought a few cocoa nuts and then tried to make chocolate, and she succeeded.
She has been in this world for so long, and she has never seen chocolate as a food, and it is the same in the Kingdom of Belem. There is no record of chocolate or cocoa trees among the trees she has seen, so she has always thought that this The world does not exist, and there are regrets.
But I didn't expect to see it here.
Looking at the plump cocoa fruit, Isabella hurriedly shouted excitedly: "Wait a minute, stop for a while."
Hearing Isabella's voice, the convoy stopped.
Isabella couldn't wait to jump out of the window, and even walked through the door in a hurry.
Seeing that Isabella was so excited and curious, Bals got out of the carriage.
Isabella jumped on her body and plucked a fruit, then held it to her nose and sniffed it.
The familiar taste made her look at the fruit in her hand in surprise, and she almost didn't jump up.Excited, Isabella broke open the cocoa fruit and looked at the white fruits inside. Isabella laughed happily.
Yes, absolutely yes, there is nothing wrong with the cocoa fruit.
Seeing Isabella's excited appearance, Bals went under the tree and asked, "Baron Isabella, what did you find?"
Isabella shook the cocoa fruit in her hand and said, "Haha, I found something amazing."
Bals looked at the fruit in Isabella's hand, and asked strangely, "This is a kuka fruit, isn't it? Is there anything strange about this kuka fruit?"
Isabella was taken aback: "Kuka fruit? Lord Bals, do you know this fruit?"
Bals nodded and said: "Of course, I know, this is a common fruit in the forest near Geno Land, but this kind of fruit tastes bitter, and basically no one goes back to eat it. I heard that farmers would crush it Soak it in water to drink, or it will be used as fertilizer for farmland."
When Isabella heard that these things would be used as fertilizer for the farmland, she was so distressed.
However, Isabella also learned from Bals that no one seems to have discovered the edible value of cocoa fruit.
Her eyes were directly narrowed into a slit.
She seems to have found an opportunity to make a lot of money.
She asked Bals: "Grand Duke Bals, you said that Geno has many such trees, right? Are you sure it is this kind of tree?"
Barth nodded and said, "That's right."
Isabella got the answer she wanted. After picking seven or eight fruits with great joy, she jumped off the tree.
Bals looked at Isabella's excited face and asked, "You haven't told me what you're doing with these kuka berries."
Isabella smiled mysteriously at Bals: "This is a secret, you will know later. It will definitely surprise you."
Seeing Isabella like this, Barth became very curious: "You are so confident, which makes me look forward to it."
Isabella laughed and said, "Well, if there are no accidents, you will be able to eat a brand new food that can subvert your cognition in a few days."
Chapter 250 Territory
Although the road was not easy, in the evening, they still came to the central village of Genoling.
Isabella was very happy on this journey. After discovering the cocoa tree, Isabella fantasized about making chocolate by herself.
And just like Bals said, the closer to the Geno collar, the more cocoa trees there will be, which makes Isabella full of expectations for the future.
As long as I can make chocolate, I am afraid that I will become a rich man just around the corner.
The fact that the new lord came to take office, in fact, long before Isabella came here, the higher-ups sent people to notify the people here, so the people here came to welcome Isabella and the others very early.
Although they waited for a long time, these people had no opinion at all.
Isabella was a little stunned to see the hundreds of people gathered on the belt road standing there.
These are all here to welcome her.
Headed by the village chiefs and influential people of the various villages in Geno Territory.
This territory has a population of more than 5000 households, close to 2 people. So many people cannot live together, so there are many villages here.
Most of the population here lives in villages and towns with nearly [-] people, and there are [-] people distributed around Genuoling in the number of about [-] people in each village.
This time it was to welcome the new lord, so the village chiefs and representatives of several surrounding villages came over.
As soon as these people saw Isabella and the others coming down, they immediately knelt down and saluted.
Isabella is naturally very uncomfortable with this kind of kneeling ceremony, but there is no way to do it. In this world, it is a matter of course for those with low status to bow down to those with high status.
After these people bowed down, Isabella frowned and said to everyone: "Get up, I'm not used to people bowing down to me like this, and you don't have to do this when you see me in the future."
These leaders are honest farmers, and the previous lord was not a good person, so these leaders are all strong.
Even if Isabella said so, it wouldn't change much.
Naturally, Isabella can also see it, but she also understands that this is the deep-rooted thinking of these people, and it cannot be changed by a word. Since I can't change these, Isabella will not be too persistent.
In addition, Isabella also understood the reason for the frightened eyes of these civilians facing her.
On the way here, she has learned a little about the situation here.
The previous lord was not a good lord. He was moody and harsh on the people. The lives of these people were in dire straits. It has just passed a few years without a lord, and now there is a new lord, so these people will be panic It is also normal.
Isabella naturally understands that these changes in thinking cannot happen overnight, so she didn't force it, but let everyone go back to rest first. It can be seen from the appearance of these people that they have obviously been waiting outside for a long time look.
And these people are not young. After all, those who can be village chiefs are generally those who have a relatively large influence in the village, and these people are generally not young.
Isabella always felt that if these people persisted, they might lose their lives.
She didn't want to cause trouble when she first arrived.
The place where Isabella and the others are going to live is the former lord's mansion. Isabella originally thought it would be an abandoned house. Isabella has even made preparations. After all, it has been vacant for several years, but Unexpectedly, after Isabella came, she found that the house was intact, and there was not even much moss on the outer wall of the mansion.
"It looks complete." Isabella looked at the house in surprise and said.
Baersi said as it should: "After all, this is the lord's mansion, and it has been taken over as state-owned. Although no one lives there, it can't be abandoned. Every once in a while, the empire will hire some people to come here to clean it. fan."
"So that's how it is. It turns out that we will tidy up regularly. That's a good feeling. Wait, since we will tidy up regularly, why do we have to bring so many people here? Isn't it enough to clean up casually?"
Bals said: "How can that be? It was just a simple cleaning and maintenance before. Now that you want to move in here, naturally it can't be the same as before. It needs to be thoroughly cleaned."
"Uh, so..." Isabella understood.
In fact, if it was according to Isabella's temperament, she would do this kind of thing by herself, but think about it, anyway, she doesn't have to pay for the slavery herself, just accept it calmly.
This lord's mansion is larger than Isabella's house in the imperial capital in terms of area, but only in terms of area. After entering, you will find that it is obviously not the same as Isabella's house in the imperial capital. It is so luxurious, and even the decoration is very casual. After all, it is a local lord, so it is normal to be like this.
