"Show me, I haven't used the warning tree yet." Tina snatched the leaves and put them on her eyes, "Hey, why doesn't it work?"
Chris said doubtfully: "Impossible, it was fine when I used it just now."
He took the leaf back from Tina's hand and put it to his eyes, and the perspective of the warning tree appeared in front of him.
"Well, it can still be used."
Tina tried again, shook her head and said, "It still doesn't work."
"Let me see." Linda trotted over quickly, took the gold leaf, looked at it before taking it off.
Chris said: "Don't tell me, you can't see the perspective of the warning tree either."
Linda curled her lips and said, "I shouldn't have asked you to pour blood on it then. Now only you can use this warning tree."
Chris took back the leaves, put them away, and asked doubtfully: "Have you ever heard of something like this happening to the warning tree before?"
Linda said: "No, anyone can use it as long as they get the golden leaves. Some grow to a certain height and will grow several golden leaves."
Christo frowned, a little depressed.
Your own blood can indeed strengthen the alert tree, but in this case, you can only use it yourself.
This is indeed a happy trouble.
It seems that you need to pay more attention in the future. Not everything needs to be poured with blood by yourself.
"Linda, after breakfast, help me plant fruit trees in the territory. When the fruits are ripe, I will treat you to delicious jam." Chris said.
"Really?" Linda, a foodie,'s eyes lit up, "Is it even more delicious than snowflake cake?"
"Of course." Chris nodded, "You can also press juice and brew fruit wine. You can taste it slowly when the time comes."
At this time, even Tina next to her looked expectantly.
"Okay!" Linda agreed immediately.
"Breakfast is here." Mrs. Ellen brought out three pieces of butter sandwich bread, which was still steaming.
After Linda devoured her portion, she said impatiently: "Chris, eat quickly. After we finish, we will plant trees."
Chris couldn't help but rolled his eyes and said: "Slow down, don't be in a hurry, it won't take a while."
After breakfast, Chris wiped his mouth and hands with a handkerchief and said to Tina: "Tina, I will leave the ice cream business to you for the time being. When the jam comes on the market in two days, you won't have to work so hard.
"
Tina nodded and said: "Okay."
Chris took the two girls to the first floor of the castle. At this moment, Jonathan and the others had also finished their breakfast and were exercising in the yard.
"Sir, are we going to Mote City?" Jonathan asked as he led the maroon horse and Lagen over.
"No, no, no." Chris shook his head and said, "I won't go today. You ask Knight Shiloh to take the valet and Tina with him, and the others stay in the castle on standby."
"Yes, sir!" Jonathan turned around and announced Chris's order to the knights.
The departure of Tina, the strongest fighting force, made Chris feel a little uneasy, so it was necessary to retain as much of the guard force in the castle as possible.
"Sir!" Knight Hilo came to Chris.
Chris took out a bulging money bag from the space ring with dozens of silver coins in it.
"Today I will send you to assist Tina in making the snowflake cake. Just follow the method I taught you and do it step by step. Don't make any mistakes that will affect the reputation of the snowflake cake." Chris said seriously.
Shiloh made a knightly salute and said: "Sir, I will definitely live up to your expectations."
"Okay, let's go."
The three male servants in the castle were called out. Tina mounted the maroon horse, waved to Chris, and led Shiloh and the others in the direction of Motte City.
Watching the five people go away, Chris turned around and said, "Jonathan, go to the territory and ask all the young and middle-aged laborers to put down their work and help me plant fruit trees, regardless of gender."
"Yes, sir." Jonathan turned and left.
Chris touched the space ring and took out a piece of parchment with a simplified map of Hope Town drawn on it.
When planting fruit trees and creating an orchard, you can't plant them randomly like headless flies. You need a good plan.
Chris chose two places, both of which are close to water sources and relatively open around them, so that they can build workshops in the future.
······
"The lord has given an order. Everyone should put down the work at hand, bring the barrels and shovels at home, and go to the castle to help the lord plant fruit trees. No mistakes!" Jonathan held the gong and walked back and forth in Hope Town over and over again.
Wander around.
"What, the lord wants to plant fruit trees? What to do with the crops in the field? I still have to weed."
"That's right, seeing that the harvest is coming in two months, what if something goes wrong and the grain production is reduced?"
Chris's order caused some resistance among the people.
"Are you guys stupid? You forgot that when the lord called us to dig mud from the pond a few days ago, we each gave twenty copper coins? Maybe there will still be rewards today."
"Oh, yes, yes."
After hearing what that person said, the other people's resistance disappeared.
I don’t know why, but in the past four or five days, my lord has undergone great changes.
In the past, when the citizens were asked to work, it was all unpaid labor. Paying them money? That was something that was simply unthinkable.
However, they spent only one morning digging mud from the pond two days ago, and for the first time, they were given twenty copper coins, which was enough to feed their entire family for several days.
Not only that, the lord also opened a warehouse to store grain, and treated everyone in the territory to a sumptuous lunch, including slices of meat.
Some of them have not eaten meat for many years.
"Let's go and help the lord with the work!" A group of people came out of their homes and rushed towards the castle in groups, fearing that their slow speed would cause the lord's dissatisfaction.
······
In less than twenty minutes, more than 140 people gathered in front of the castle, which was already the entire workforce of the entire Hope Town.
Chris looked at the crowded group of people and felt very happy.
The labor enthusiasm of the people in the territory has increased a lot. Thinking about when I just crossed over a few days ago, these people were kicked and kicked by the knights under me.
But today, I can come spontaneously.
Chris got on the horse and shouted loudly: "Let's go!"
Hundreds of people followed Chris in a mighty manner, and the scene was very spectacular.
Although the local residents were a little confused as to why the fruit trees were planted without saplings, they did not dare to ask any more questions.
