Chapter 260: Promoting composting technology
The descendants of Charles, Eric and others will have to wait for many years to follow Russell in his career.
And now, Russell urgently needs a team of knights to fight in the snowfield with him, hunt snow ghosts and even snow demons, cultivate black oil dragon eggs, and provide extra supplies for Xiao Menglong - he can't rely on Xiao Menglong to hunt all by himself.
"Charles."
"My lord."
"You know a lot of people. If there is a suitable lady, please introduce Grove to help him settle down here." Russell gave Charles a task.
Charles said happily: "Don't worry, my lord, there are enough girls in Youguang Town for a great knight like Grove to choose."
After the battle of the Second Fall, Grove's loyalty has been verified. He is indeed a great knight who lies flat like a Buddha, but at least he is not ambiguous in battle, so Russell is ready to train Grove next.
After all, he is about to open up his own warm enclave, but he only has Eric, a fantasy beast knight, under his command, which is really a bit shabby.
If possible, he will go to the volcanic oasis in the future to recruit some knights.
Of course.
It is also urgent to train young knights.
"I have been developing very low-key, but the result is that I have developed too fast. The team under my command cannot be trained. Talent is scarce!" Russell sighed in his heart. He thought that he would be promoted to a fantasy beast knight in three to five years.
Who would have thought that it would be less than a year after crossing, and he would be promoted to a flying dragon knight.
I have to say.
The gift given by the Shadow Flame Dragon is really too heavy.
After leaving the official dormitory building, Russell took Charles to stroll around the small market and inspect his territory.
After the ice age came, the weather became colder day by day, and many serfs were already staying at home, preparing for the winter. Therefore, there were not many people in the small market. Occasionally, someone saw Russell and immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
"What's the matter?" Russell frowned when he saw this. He had clearly instructed that the people in the territory only needed to bow and salute when they saw him.
Charles chuckled and said, "Sir, your status is different from before. You are both a lord and a scholar, and you have now been promoted to a fantasy beast knight... So I think that the people of the territory can no longer show their respect for you by just bowing..."
"So you secretly changed the rules?"
"Ah, please forgive me, this is a unanimous decision made after the meeting of our office." Charles saw that Russell was not very angry, so he continued to flatter him boldly, "From now on, the people of the territory will kneel down and bow to you when they see you for the first time every day, and they can bow after the second time."
Then, Charles nattered on and on about a bunch of reasons to prove the necessity of kneeling.
What reflects Russell's authority, what prevents assassins from attacking, what connects with the Grand Duchy, and what distinguishes the treatment of followers from people of the territory.
All kinds of things.
Successfully poked a little dark thought of Russell - he himself would kneel down on one knee to salute when he saw the Shadow Flame Dragon.
However, Russell still had a stern face and scolded, "Change it back, I don't need others to kowtow to me!"
Charles nodded hurriedly, "Yes, sir!"
Unconsciously, they rode to the Magic Potion Village. Compared with the deserted other places, the Magic Potion Village was still bustling. Especially in the tobacco potion field, the serfs were busy collecting tobacco leaves, tying them into bundles, and sending them to the carriage on the roadside.
The magic potion tobacco is very tall, taller than a person, and the tops have been knocked off to prevent the tobacco from blooming, so only leaves grow.
The tobacco leaves at the bottom have been picked, revealing the bare rhizomes, and only some immature tobacco leaves are left at the top.
"According to your instructions, we started picking tobacco leaves a month ago. Most of the damaged tobacco leaves were sent to the Fluorescent Castle to make magic potions. Only intact tobacco leaves were left to make cigars."
"So, have the Cloud and Frost series cigars started production?"
"It seems not yet. They are still drying. There are fewer sunny days recently, so the drying effect is not enough." Charles said, "Of course, these are all in the charge of Old Hans. I just asked a few questions."
Old Hans, the chief judge, now almost lives in the cigar factory in the town. He comes back one day a week to preside over the manor court.
Charles seemed to remember something and said, "My lord, it's a good opportunity to report to you that the composting effect you invented is really amazing. In the same field, the crops that used composting have a yield that is at least 30% higher than those that did not use composting!"
"Really? The effect is so good?" Russell was immediately proud.
When he ordered the collection of feces, he could feel that many people were muttering behind his back, thinking that this was a brain-twitch behavior.
Now it has been proven that composting is indeed of great value.
It is better to share happiness with others than to enjoy it alone, so Russell immediately said: "It seems that Catherine is in charge of composting, right?"
"Yes."
"You and Catherine should summarize the composting technology and the effects, and then compile them into a document." Russell touched his chin, "I will send the document to the Great Scholar Round Table to benefit the entire Shadow Flame Grand Duchy."
First, it will make a name for himself and prove that his title of scholar is not in vain.
Second, if composting is promoted, the strength of the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy will definitely increase again, and the Shadow Flame Dragon will also benefit from it, which can be regarded as Russell's return to the Shadow Flame Dragon.
"Yes!" Charles immediately became excited.
Russell quickly alerted and warned: "I don't care about normal work interactions, but you will never be allowed to take advantage of your position to mess with the relationship between men and women."
Charles chuckled and said, "Sir, how could it be possible? I, Charles, am such a person..."
"It's not the best. I have to remind you that Katie has rebuilt her fighting spirit. I am very optimistic that she can be promoted to a grand knight. If there is a chance, it is not an extravagant hope to become a fantasy beast knight." Russell said seriously, "The Wildcat sisters have a deep relationship. You You have to think about it.”
"Uh..." Charles was stunned for a while, and then he said humbly, "Sir, don't worry, I want to make the information detailed and solid, to help you make a name for yourself at the Roundtable of Great Scholars, and maybe improve the fertilization technology. I can help you win the title of Great Scholar!"
The Loremaster goes one step further and is the Great Loremaster, representing authority in the fields of knowledge and technology.
A wide variety of magic potion formulas, as well as the forging techniques of various gemstones and metal weapons, were all developed by great scholars.
It's just that in this world ruled by knights, all glory lies with knights, and the great scholars lack enough attention - the most authoritative great scholars have a lower status than a baron, and they must behave well when they see the great nobles. salute.
The great nobles are the rulers of the country.
certainly.
The status of great scholars is higher than that of lords and lords. They are also members of the upper class. Their titles are officially canonized by the Red Keep.
They are fundamentally different from those great writers, bards, painters, and musicians who relied on their literary talent and appreciation from the nobility to reach the upper class society.
"A great scholar?" Russell smiled indifferently. "The great scholars have to hold round-table meetings frequently. How can I have so much free time? I can promote the fertilization, slightly increase the national strength of the Grand Duchy, and repay the dragon's attention to me. , I am satisfied.”
Charles immediately echoed: "Yes, the dragon loves you, and you love the dragon too!"
