"Phew! I'm finally home! Even the air feels better!"
When Thomas and Mario were worried in Maiye Village, Nalant finally set foot on the land of Storm Territory.
Riding on the horse with his hands open and smelling the fragrance of the green grass and flowers around him, Nalant felt an indescribable feeling of comfort.
"If there weren't too many threats, it would be best to lead my lucky daughters in this countryside and live a shameless aristocratic life!"
After sighing a little, Nalant was even more anxious to return home, and immediately ordered: "Everyone speed up and move forward!"
"Yes, sir!"
With the sound of wheels rolling, the team continued to move deeper into the Storm Territory.
Three hours later, in the forecourt of the castle.
"Sir, thank you for your hard work! Welcome back to your castle!"
The convoy was spotted by the guards on the castle from a distance. After Thomas received the news, he immediately took all the servants in the castle and waited to greet them.
As soon as Lightning's horse's hooves stopped, Thomas came up to him excitedly, took the reins and offered his greetings.
After Nalant got off his horse, two maids neatly brought him towels and water.
After wiping his face vigorously to wash away a lot of fatigue, Nalant looked around.
"Thomas, it seems that you have been very diligent during this period! How is the progress of the castle repairs?"
At this moment, standing in the vestibule and looking at the surrounding city walls and the outer walls of the inner fortress, the dilapidated appearance of the past is no longer the same.
The cracks in the stones that had peeled off due to disrepair have been filled in, and the moss and black marks left by the erosion of time on the castle walls and city walls have also been polished.
The current appearance of the castle is replaced by flat blue-gray walls. At first glance, Nalant's lucky castle looks like a human being, at least dozens of years younger.
From the original greasy middle-aged uncle, he transformed directly back to his youthful state.
"Sir! During the time you left, I didn't dare to slack off even for a moment. Most of the repairs to the castle have been completed."
"Now only the main gate and the inner castle are left unfinished."
"However, the castle gate has been forged by John Blacksmith. I believe it will be completed in a few days. When the new gate is installed, your castle will be impregnable!"
"As for the halls on the first floor, due to your instructions, the construction has not started yet!"
"Very good, let's go in first! I'm really tired from this journey!"
Narant nodded. He specifically ordered not to start construction on several halls because if he wanted to repair the halls, he needed to prepare various decorations first.
Otherwise, even if the walls and floors are repaired, the hall will still be closed to people.
However, during this Tulip trip, Narant made a lot of money from shaved ice and table salt, so he had already purchased decorations for several halls.
Of course, these decorations are naturally not as luxurious as the count's.
For example, candlesticks and chandeliers are all made of copper, and some gold and silver utensils and furnishings are also gold-plated and silver-plated.
However, this is also the normal behavior of small nobles, and Nalant can only make do with it for the time being, preparing for the arrival of the Earl in a month's time.
Under Thomas's eager guidance, Nalant entered the inner fortress where he had been away for more than twenty days.
At this moment, the corridor of the inner castle really looks brand new. The original marble floor tiles on the ground are not only dull, but also have a lot of cracks. Now all the cracked stone slabs have been replaced, and those that are not damaged have been re-polished.
In this way, the entire castle corridor becomes extremely bright. If the corridors were not empty on both sides, this could be treated as a tourist attraction for paid visits like those castles in the West in the previous life.
He came to the reception hall and sat comfortably on the sofa. After the servant served the honey tea, Nalant took a sip before looking at Thomas.
"Thomas, come and report on the recent situation in the territory!"
"Yes, sir!"
Next, Thomas began to report, which was nothing more than the output of the Storm Territory during this period and the progress of the transformation plan.
Because Thomas and Mario exchanged supplies during this period, Nalant gained a comprehensive understanding of the development of the territory from Thomas.
During this period, the output of sea salt, dried fish, etc. remained stable.
Five or six caravans came during this period, and two caravans even stayed in the Storm Territory overnight because of the grilled oysters.
However, according to the caravan, they felt that it would be better if there was beer on the territory.
Then comes the brick kiln. In the past twenty days, the brick kiln has fired two kilns. Because Narante's earthen kiln can only accommodate more than fifty cubic bricks, each kiln produces almost 30,000 bricks.
piece.
Two kilns equal nearly 60,000 bricks. Although there will still be some losses, this output is completely sufficient for the current Storm Territory, and there is even a surplus.
In addition, there is some news that makes Narante happy, that is, the sugar cane and sweet potatoes are growing very well, and I believe that the harvest mode will start in a few months.
This is the power of the green elf. Although it may not necessarily make a lot of money, it is better than stability.
Of course, Thomas also informed Nalant about the ‘Warcraft Thief’.
After hearing this, Nalant didn't take it to heart very much. Now that he was back, the flower picker's final fate would be nothing but delicious food on the grill.
"Okay, Thomas, you go arrange the unloading of the convoy. Sir, I will take a bath first. I will personally investigate the matter of the World of Warcraft thief tonight!" Nalant stretched his body.
"Yes, sir!"
…
After washing up nicely, Nalant did not rest, but came to the kitchen alone.
Tonight is the night of meteors. As the saying goes, it is better to choose a day than to hit it. Nalant plans to get the green elf rewarded by the system today.
In addition, now that Catherine's upgrade is imminent, Nalant is also curious about what kind of strength the middle-level awakened Lucky Girl can achieve.
Therefore, he is now preparing to start configuring the intermediate awakening potion for swordsmanship talent as soon as possible.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Put all kinds of potions into the pot in order according to the system formula, and after just more than ten minutes of cooking, the intermediate awakening potion has been completed.
After putting the awakening potion into the space ring, Nalant ordered his servant to find Catherine, while he went to the study on the third floor to wait.
"Sir, you are looking for me!"
Not long after, Catherine knocked on the door.
"Come here and sit!" Nalant was sitting on the sofa by the study window and waved to Catherine.
"Yes, sir!"
"Catherine, I told you that day that I have a way to improve your strength!" Nalant said without hesitation.
Catherine, who had just sat down, was stunned when she heard this, and then her eyes filled with excitement, "Sir, you just call me here now..."
"That's right, I'm calling you here now to help you improve your strength!" Nalant nodded with a smile.
"Thank you, sir!" Catherine immediately stood up from the sofa excitedly and half-knelt down towards Nalant.
She was a little skeptical at first. After all, no matter how hard she practiced, her swordsmanship had stagnated. Catherine felt that it was basically impossible to solve this dilemma by external force.
"Get up! You and Vivian are my lucky daughters. The stronger you are, the more you can help me, sir. So, you don't need to thank me!" Nalant held Catherine's hand.
His shoulders pushed her back to the sofa.
"Come, Catherine, drink this cup of tea!" With that, Nalant took out the intermediate awakening potion.
"Sir, is this the tea you gave Vivian and Shirley to drink?"
Catherine has already listened to Shirley and Vivian's story. It was their own adults who gave them this magical tea to drink, and they had unique talents.
Now, she has no doubt whether she can improve her strength in the future.
"Yes, Catherine! After drinking it, the troubles that trouble you will be solved!"
"Thank you, sir!" Catherine took the cup of tea with a slight trembling, then raised her head and drank it without hesitation.
