Chapter 237 Liszt's Friends
Following the return of Vera Rivera and Mrs. Penelope after watching the funny show, the long-lost family banquet in Tulip Castle began.
Chatting about interesting things, teasing about war and peace, the atmosphere is not very harmonious, or full of family taste, but it is not bad.
In particular, Mrs. Penelope and Mrs. Marie, from time to time they exchanged a few words with guns and sticks, which in turn enlivened the atmosphere.
The earl sat in the middle, looking a little embarrassed. The eternal topic of discord between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the most troublesome problem for men no matter which world they are in.
Compared with the little transparency in the past, the current Liszt gradually adapts to his identity and is no longer transparent.
You can participate in various topics, and you are more and more comfortable with this kind of communication between nobles. Sometimes, once people get into their own horns, they feel that the whole world is turning away from them, but when they get out of the horns, they will find that the world is there. Never give up.
"Is this a specialty of Huahua Town?" The earl ate crispy peanuts, paired with gin, and the more he ate, the more he felt, "Peanuts are delicious when made this way."
"This is crispy peanuts." Liszt explained while eating, "I brought many flavors of peanut food, but most of them are more suitable for snacks."
"Besides boiling peanuts, I didn't expect there to be such a way of eating. Do you buy this kind of food at Tulip Castle?" the count asked Madam Marie.
"If you like to eat, you can buy some. Lister's flower caravan seems to sell this kind of peanut food in Coral City?"
"Yes, basically wherever there are flower caravans, there are these commodities."
The earl nodded: "Then buy more, I think the taste is good, especially after drinking, eating a few peanuts feels very comfortable."
Peanuts caught the earl's attention.
Those exquisite new-style breads in Huahua Town also appeared on the dining table and won the favor of everyone. Coupled with the egg soup and scrambled eggs that the chef of Tulip Fort learned from Mrs. Abby, as well as the seafood that has become inaccessible to the nobles of Coral Island, the delicacies provided by Huahua Town accounted for one-third of the table.
While gnawing on a hamburger with pieces of meat, which was also an invention of Flower Town, Levi said, "Liszt, you have a good chef. I never knew that bread and eggs can make such delicious food with different tastes."
"It's a pity that the commercial value of these foods is not great, otherwise I would be richer than Viscount Trick."
Commoners don't pursue variety in food,
Aristocrats prefer to let their chefs learn how to cook instead of buying ready-made food. The most important thing is that the source of these food ingredients is not monopolized, and they are very common things that everyone has the ability to collect.
Viscount Trick of Beer Island owns the Humulus elf and monopolizes the most important hops (Humulus) in brewing beer, so he can monopolize the sales of high-quality beer.
Egg soup, scrambled eggs, seafood, peanuts, only one idea is missing.
These foods are mostly invented by Liszt in order to satisfy his stomach, and instruct Mrs. Abby to invent, and by the way, earn some money before others learn it.
What can really do business is an industry with a monopoly nature.
For example, beer with a monopoly on raw materials, soap and liquor with a monopoly on technology, and cement, ceramics, glass, and white paper that will be developed in the future are Liszt's hopes.
...
After afternoon tea, Liszt walked around Coral City.
First, I went to the Knight Academy to meet the familiar students in the academy, and to get in touch with the gradually alienated feelings. By the way, I want to show my ambitions, and I hope that these future land knights will consider themselves when they choose to follow the lord.
Then I went to Frank's house and chatted with Little Shirley for an hour. The friendship when I was young still needs to be considered, and I can't be too unfeeling.
Then, I visited a few friends in Coral City.
They are all aristocratic teenagers, most of whom are the second sons in the family. Before they were underage, those teenagers who were destined to inherit the title all liked to chase after Levi's. Therefore, most of Liszt's friends were the second sons like him, and now they are almost the same. The nobles will still follow Levi's, and the second son who can't win the title will place his hope on Liszt.
"Sir Liszt, are you planning to form your own knight squad?"
In a small aristocratic manor, a young man named Rick asked Liszt who was sitting at the head seat: "I saw Rondo, has he become your follower?"
"It hasn't been confirmed yet, but soon, after the New Year's Eve, I will seriously consider forming a knight squad. Huahua Town has the ability to arm a knight squad. Lasse and Rondo may wait until I form a knight squad. Be loyal to me." Liszt replied.
"So, can I follow you? I want to join your knight squad, and I want to go to the battlefield!" Rick asked expectantly.
"Have you become an Earth Knight?"
Rick's tone seemed a little proud and reserved: "Yes, just a month ago, although it's a bit late, I'm nineteen years old this year."
"Of course, I'm very happy that you can think about following me. But I hope you can live in Huahua Town for a while after the New Year's Eve, like Rondo, and wait until I form a knight team before making a decision." Li Si Te didn't agree on the spot. It was the same reason as before that knights choose lords, and lords also choose knights.
Another half-grown young man asked, "What about me, can I follow you? I haven't broken through to the Earth Knight yet."
His name is Nemo, and his father is an elite land knight without a title.
Liszt smiled: "Joining the knight squad is definitely not acceptable, but if you are willing to come to Huahua Town as an official, I welcome it. Everyone here can come to Huahua Town, you are my few friends." A few months Before, he didn't want to bother with these friends at all.
After all, it was the predecessor's friend, not his friend.
"However, it seems that there are already people like Galtai and Isaiah in Huahua Town. Are there any official positions we can hold?" Nemo asked.
"You don't think I will stay in Flower Town for the rest of my life, do you?"
"Oh, I'm sorry, Sir Liszt, that's not what I meant. Of course you will become a viscount lord. It is inevitable. Everyone is so sure."
"No need to apologize to Nemo, becoming a viscount is my goal, and having my own island fiefdom or city fiefdom is also my goal. To achieve this goal, I need a group of loyal followers. If you have ideas, I welcome you to come To Flower Town."
Looking at the already dark sky, he got up and said, "I'm going back, Tulip Castle still has a dinner to attend, tomorrow night, I will hold a banquet in Tulip Castle, and invite everyone and friends from the Knight Academy to attend .”
Rick said loudly, "I'll be there on time, sir."
"Me too." Nemo and the others spoke one after another.
Liszt nodded, put on the cloak handed by the servant Thomas, left the noble manor, surrounded by the retinue knights, and braved the cold wind to return to Tulip Castle.
