Ties, shirts, vests, vests, boxers, suits, trousers, gentleman's hats, shoes, Liszt has a range of clothes that you want to produce.

But he can't be so unconventional. After all, he is just a baron in the country. If one day becomes the head of a country, he can freely reform and lead the trend.

Now we can only endure the cumbersome costumes to maintain the so-called aristocratic decent.

"Master, I gave the servants a half-day holiday. From tomorrow, they will work for the castle."

"Hey, you look at the arrangement."

"Yes."

Lisz, who is sweating hot, doesn't have much interest in talking: "Mr. Carter, let me prepare a bath for me, this weather is not very friendly to people."

"As you wish." Carter quickly ordered the maids to prepare to take a bath.

Nowadays, the small castle is always equipped with bath water, because the servants know that their lord is a noble who loves cleanliness. It is normal to wash once a day. It is normal to wash twice a day. It is not unreasonable to wash three times a day. It is not normal to wash without a day.

I took a shower and changed my clothes and loose robes.

This kind of robes is a kind of pajamas - the aristocrats here also know that the dresses that are always worn tightly are very difficult, so the pajamas have been changed and used as home clothes.

Liszt still feels cumbersome and uncomfortable to wear.

In the summer, his favorite is a half-sleeve shirt and a T-shirt, so he rolled up the sleeves of his robes and exposed his arms. Although this does not conform to the etiquette of the nobility, in the small castle, who dares to pursue him this little moment. The countryside also has the benefit of the countryside.

"Master, unfortunately we don't have ice, otherwise I can give you a cup of rock sugar water to eliminate the heat."

"Even in the tulip, there is not much ice to squander in the summer. I can bear it with this difficulty. The only pity is that the cold beer can't be drunk." He doesn't like to drink, and now drinks at the banquet because of his predecessor's love. Wine plus needs to be social.

But he only likes to drink cold beer in the big summer, and his heart is cool.

Seeing that summer is coming, it is getting hotter every day. When the coral island is hottest in memory, the eggs can be cooked on the ground, and it is estimated to be forty degrees.

Every year, there are many serfs who are killed by heat.

"I heard that saltpeter can make ice, but saltpeter is difficult to make. Coral Island does not seem to have any saltpeter mine. I don't know it. I remember reading the book. The rural corners, horses, and toilet corners will be rich in saltpeter, but flowers. The town is a wooden house and there is no toilet..."

Nitrate ice making technology, basically Liszt can not be copied.

He can only hide the ice in the hail in the winter like other nobles, and move it out in the summer: "Mr. Carter, this winter, don't forget to remind me to build a hail."

"Okay, lord."

......

dinner.

Galthai, Marcus, Isaiah and Blair were invited as usual - there are only four of them in the town of flowers, and they are qualified to eat at a table with Liszt.

"Liszt, the plan for oysters has been completed. Tomorrow, the first batch of oyster fishermen will wear the new equipment you have prepared for them and go to the east coast for official fishing. They are old people and women and children, stupid and impulsive, They have already shelled their shells on the beach these two days."

The lord personally used the seafood as a banquet. As soon as the news spread, the civilians followed suit and prepared to fish for seafood.

They always follow the actions of the lord.

Liszt said seriously: "Mr. Galthai must be safely guided. I don't want any civilians because seafood is dangerous. You, as an official of the town, must pay attention to this idea. The population is a flower. The most important productivity of the town."

Maybe I still don't think so.

But Gao Ertai and others who already understand Liszt’s attitude still nod their hesitation and expressed their understanding.

"So tomorrow, if you have time, go with me to see how the fishermen catch the sea for the first time. At the same time, actively promote every kind of seafood that can be caught, and seafood that cannot be caught. In addition, you have to Teach them how to keep seafood."

"The Baron, we have organized a small book, and have repeatedly emphasized this. And the seafood in the castle has also tasted every instrument, and they are very active."

"well."

Waiting until the next day, calculating the time of the ebb, Liszt came to the oysters with the shackles from the knight. The oysters have not yet started to build a house. They just shovel a wasteland not far from the beach and build a wooden house in the future.

At this time, there were about 200 old and weak women and women, carrying baskets or wooden barrels, on the flat beach on the east coast, constantly rummaging through every rock and shoveling each piece of sand.

Many of them, without gloves and shovel, hammers and other tools, rely entirely on one hand - the production of the town tailor shop and the blacksmith shop can not keep up.

"Lord Lord!"

After seeing Liszt, the fishermen greeted them.

Liszt slightly decapitated, responding to the fishermen, riding a fire dragon horse, strolling around. The sea is very fortunate, the wind is blowing in the sun, but the workload is not very big. In the past, the fishermen who felt quite "eatful" in the past, the enthusiasm is high, and they are busy with their experience.

Just looking at it for a while, Liszt was too hot to hurry back to the coconut tree.

He looked up at the tall coconut tree and always felt that something was wrong. After half a mile, he understood: "No coconut!"

Then I turned to ask the instrument on the side: "Does this tree not bear fruit?"

"The result, the Lord, this is the fragrant coconut tree, its fruit is called fragrant coconut, but when the fruit is very small, it is taken away by the monkeys of the thorns."

"monkey?"

"It's a gray-yellow monkey. We all call them stealing the monkeys. It's fierce. Sometimes they will go to the farmland and ruin the crops."

"Stealing the monkey..." Liszt nodded and didn't speak.

He suddenly remembered the news he had read. It seems that in some countries in Southeast Asia, there is a tradition of training monkeys to pick coconuts. The coconut trees are very high, and it is very difficult for humans to climb up. The monkeys can freely pick up the coconut trees. If the town trains a group of stealing monkeys, it may be possible to develop a coconut business.

Of course, he is still not sure whether this fragrant coconut tree is really a coconut tree - the winter flower town, but the snow has been more than two months. If it is a real coconut tree, it should have frozen to death.

“What is the taste of the coconut?”

"One time I picked up a coconut palm that was stolen by the monkey. It has a lot of milk-like juice, it tastes sweet, sour, and it tastes good."

Liszt was hooked up by locusts.

There are many such coconut palms on the East Coast. If you can protect them, you should be able to harvest a lot of coconut palms. It can be regarded as a kind of drink and even develop a special product.

He turned his eyes to the more distant thorns of the thorns: "I will take down the thorns and ridges sooner or later, and kill all the risks that threaten the town of flowers!"

Stealing the fruit monkey, just to train to pick the fruit.
