Adrian fell asleep with peace of mind and woke up in the warm morning sun. The morning sun dispersed the slightly cold night and evenly spread over the forest and the ocean. Today and yesterday, it seemed that nothing had changed, but everything seemed to have changed.
It's new life.
Adrian opened the window and quietly looked at the world reflecting the faint golden light for a while. At this moment, the insecurity that only belonged to the traveler completely faded away. Adrian's world became so peaceful for the first time.
.
But Alice's appearance quickly broke the peace. After receiving Adrian's response, she pushed the door open and came in with a sincere smile she had never seen before: "Good morning, Lord."
Adrian turned back with a smile on his face: "Good morning, Alice, do you have any special arrangements today?"
Alice quickly made the bed for Adrian: "Nothing special. Butler Ralph went to the river embankment. The giants' work is going well. Vicky is still observing and recording the growth of the tea leaves with Luke.
, the archer sentry did not report any abnormal situation in the forest. The other leaders are busy with their own affairs, so you can accumulate magic power and practice martial arts as usual. Oh, by the way, if you are interested in the afternoon,
You can go to the seaside, the Boer leader just said that it is the season for sea deer to pass by here again."
"The sea deer passed by here? Is it the phenomenon that after the sea deer surround Grensen Tower, they follow the continental shelf to the seamount, and then follow the seamount to the warmer waters further south?"
"Yes, Lord, I heard it is very spectacular."
"Well, it's worth going to see it. After all, it takes twenty years to see such a grand scene. Please let me know. If you have nothing to do and want to see it, just go and see it."
"You are so kind, my lord."
Alice sincerely admired, and Adrian nodded, and then thought of something again, and said: "Okay, let's go have breakfast now, and then inform Ralph that I need to talk to him after breakfast to keep him busy.
After you finish what you are doing, go to the living room and wait for me."
…
When Adrian walked into the living room, Ralph seemed to have just arrived. After Alfred left, Ralph became the busiest person in the territory. Seeing Adrian walking into the living room, Ralph
Standing up, she put her right hand on her chest and bowed slightly to salute. Adrian waved his hand, indicating that no more courtesy was needed. Alice gave them two cups of green tea, and Adrian said:
"Ralph, what is the sugar we often eat made of? I mean, what are the raw materials of sugar?"
Ralph didn't expect Adrian to ask this question, but his professionalism still allowed him to give the answer after a little thought:
"Generally speaking, it is sweet cabbage, Lord. It is the sweetest crop with the highest sugar yield in the entire Grensen Tower. It is grown throughout the entire Grensen Tower. It is the kind of cabbage with green leaves and a slight yellowish tint.
There are at least five plantations in Nibelung, but the sugar produced by this kind of sweet cabbage has a faint green color that is difficult to remove and a sweet cabbage smell, so it is just low-grade sugar, and you, Lord, and
The white sugar produced in Sugarloaf is generally used by high-ranking elves and noble families. This sugar is sweeter and has no peculiar smell. The more high-end frosting sugar is also refined from Sugarloaf, but due to the
Sugarloaf has unique living habits, so it is only grown on Beidao in Sanshen Bay in the north. It is considered to be the most high-end luxury-level source of sweetness, and it is expensive."
After listening to Ralph's answer, Adrian thought for a few minutes, and then asked: "Besides sweet cabbage and sugarcane, are there any other sweet crops? I mean it's easier to get seeds, I guess.
Sugarloaf seeds must be hard to come by.”
This time, Ralph didn't think much and said to Adrian: "There are also Vansen sweet beans, Lord, but although Vansen sweet beans are distributed throughout the Glenson Tower, they are extracted from Vansen sweet beans.
The golden sugar is the most expensive sugar. The price per kilogram is almost 60 magic crystals. The processing technology is also extremely simple. You only need to boil the pods, filter, dry and then crush them to get the golden sugar. However,
It is almost impossible to successfully grow Vansen sweet beans, even if you have the two life spirits of Lord Vicki and Lord Alice. Glenson Tower and even the Grand Arcanist Council of Palameo have tried.
There is no record of success, and almost all of them died in the first year. It is said that long-term consumption of golden sugar can make people achieve higher natural affinity, so this crop has been praised and restricted by the three supreme gods, and is not allowed.
Planted by mortals.”
Now Adrian became interested. Are there crops that the three supreme gods do not allow mortals to grow? Then you must try it yourself, but you just don’t know who has higher divine power between the tripod of creation and the three supreme gods.
However, sweet cabbage and sugarcane cannot be given up. Even if you can grow Vansen sweet beans, if the output of golden sugar is too large, the sky-high price of golden sugar will undoubtedly fall to the bottom.
Jealousy will lead to hatred and revenge, and will also damage your own interests, so the gain outweighs the loss.
So Adrian said: "Go and collect some seeds of sweet cabbage and Vansen sweet beans, as well as seeds of Sugarloaf. Well, it seems that the seeds of Sugarloaf cannot be collected for the time being, so let's wait for Afu to come back.
Let’s talk about it later, I’ll let him collect it next time he goes to sea.”
"Yes, Lord, we have the seeds of sweet cabbage ourselves, and for Vansen sweet beans, you can ask Mr. Aragund for help. They can be bought in the Nibelungs with the weight of a kite.
Enough to carry four to five hundred pills."
Adrian nodded and said: "Then you first collect some sweet cabbage seeds and give them to me. One more thing, Ralph, we now have a large amount of magic crystals. I plan to use them to improve our strength."
In the name of consumables, one to ten coins will be distributed to everyone every month to improve the strength of our warriors. You should make a detailed plan."
"Isn't this too much? Lord, I think one to three is a reasonable number. If it is one to ten, then the pressure will be too much."
"Ralph, I don't think it's too much. Our geographical location is too special. We have already encountered two attacks by the Black Bone Pirates, and an active attack to eliminate the green-skinned fishman tribe. There were even
The dragon invasion happened. Before I came to the territory, two of the enemies that my mother was worried about had already appeared, and Duwei's assassin did not appear. Although we were protected by the Green Tower, the Green Tower did not
may protect us forever, then we need to rely on our own strength to protect ourselves, so it is urgent to improve the strength level of our subordinates. We must seize the time. In addition, I also want to find a way to purchase a batch of magic crystal cannons.
Something like that.”
Ralph felt that what Adrian said made sense, so he no longer bothered about distributing magic crystals. Moreover, the profits from the tea trade had already begun to be impressive. It was not that the magic crystals could not be distributed. The reason why Ralph
The suggestion to lower the number is just out of habitual savings considerations, but when it comes to purchasing magic crystal cannons, Ralph has a different view:
"Lord, regarding the purchase of magic crystal cannons, we can actually purchase the raw materials and make them ourselves. I have discussed this issue with Mr. Aoun. Mr. Aoun can not only make one-time magic crystal ballistas, but also cannon-shaped cannons.
And the skill-type magic crystal cannon, Mr. Aoun once took the initiative to talk to me about this issue. If the batch of dragon attribute materials hadn't attracted all his energy and attention, he should have come to you to apply for this.
A magic crystal."
This is an unexpected joy. It seems that his uncle was not stingy when he gave it to his attendants. The quality of Bronn and the three swordsman sisters was unexpectedly high, and even Ornn's professionalism was so superb.
You must know that if you master the manufacturing skills of magic crystal cannon, it can only mean one thing. What Ornn lacks in the master stage is only the accumulation of magic power:
"Okay, you go to Aoun and ask him to make a purchase list of the materials needed for the magic crystal cannon. You can go to Nibelungen to purchase it, or you can wait for Ah Fu's next overseas purchase. In short, this kind of defense
We must equip each war tree with at least two sexual weapons, so that our territory will be safe."
…
After setting a general direction with Ralph, Adrian once again delegated everything to Ralph, whom he trusted more and more. He himself took Alice and the people who were forced by him
Vicki, who had interrupted her work, along with Ornn, Jacob and the Swordsman sisters, came to the beach together, intending to enjoy up close the natural scenery of the sea deer traveling around the continental shelf, which can only be seen once every twenty years.
When Adrian and others came to the beach, Bull and Pabu Pabu also followed. They followed on land and did not go into the water. Today, all sea hounds and marine scouts will not go into the water. Ou
The Par River is the only river nearby, and its mouth will become the only place for sea deer to drink water.
Well, although the sea deer is an aquatic creature, it also needs to drink a certain amount of fresh water every year. Its skin does not have the function of filtering sea water. Although it can obtain a certain amount of water from food, they still need to drink a certain amount of water.
The body stores a certain amount of fresh water to cope with consumption when food is scarce.
Adrian and the others did not wait long when they saw a white line appear on the eastern sea surface, and then a huge and noisy sound of lapping water came. Adrian had never seen the legendary shallow pond tide in his previous life.
But this tide formed by sea deer is undoubtedly extremely spectacular.
A white wave about dozens of kilometers wide was getting closer and closer. In order not to disturb the normal migration of the sea deer herd, Adrian and others retreated as far as possible into the forest and climbed to the treetops to prepare to enjoy this rare scene.
The white waterline is getting closer and closer, and it is visually estimated that more than 100,000 sea deer form the first group of sea deer. Their fin-like limbs and tails are constantly beating the sea surface, and they are approaching the mouth of the Opal River at high speed.
In less than half an hour, Adrian could clearly see the coral-like antlers on the sea deer's head and the markings on their fur. But at this moment, hundreds of huge figures appeared high above the sea.
