Early in the morning, the sun shines on the bed through the gaps in the curtains, forming a bright stripe
Russell stretched and woke up from his sleep. When he opened his eyes, he felt no fatigue or tingling, only refreshed and full of energy.
Maybe it’s his young body that brings this feeling, maybe it’s the deep sleep that gives him this feeling, or maybe it’s the fighting spirit that improves his physique all the time. All in all, he is quite satisfied with his current body.
Full of health! Pulling the rope bell on the bedside, the other end of the rope leads to the servant’s lounge, and another bell with the sign “Master Bedroom” jingles.
A servant cannot always be with his master.
so.
The rope bell is an essential device.
“Ah, I slept so well. Even though I had to toss in the dark dreams for a long time every night, it not only did not affect my sleep, but actually slept more comfortably than before.” Russell felt happy in his heart, and the next moment, he opened his eyes suddenly. , “River clam!”
In the dark dream last night, he discovered a river clam that was suspected to be pregnant with magic pearls, but he couldn’t get out of the dark dream.
Even if Little Menglong is tired and the dark dream dissipates, he will fall into a deep sleep and never wake up.
“Fortunately, I didn’t forget my mussel… I don’t know if the mussel escaped after one night.”
Dang Dang Dang.
There was a knock on the door, accompanied by the voice of the head maid: “Good morning, sir.”
“Good morning, come in.” Russell had already gotten out of bed.
The door was pushed open, and the head maid Leona led three maids, Erin, Phoebe and Olivia, just like the maids of the Fluorescent Castle, each performing their duties.
Those who make the bed make the bed, those who clear the table clear the table, and those who prepare the toiletries prepare the toiletries.
However, it can be seen that the movements of these three young maids are slightly unfamiliar compared to the maids of the Fluorescent Castle.
Moreover, the quality of the maids themselves is also slightly worse. Irene has freckles on her face, Phoebe has some buck teeth, and Olivia looks short. Only Leona, the head maid, was tall and beautiful. Russell still remembered that her butt was also round when she bent over.
After Russell had washed up, Leona left one after another with the maids.
The valet Ram knocked on the door and came in: “Sir.”
“Yes.” Russell did not refuse the valet’s service and dressing. These aristocratic lifestyles have been engraved in the bones of this body.
“Sir, do you need to practice Dou Qi this morning? If so, you can wear this training suit.” It was the first time for Ram to serve Russell. He didn’t understand Russell’s rules and asked with some anxiety.
Russell calmly ordered: “Practice uniforms.”
He did not show his friendly side. Being close will lead to estrangement, and being close will lead to indifference. How to master the balance is a science.
Put on your training clothes and go downstairs to have breakfast.
“Sir!” Eric, the knight class teacher, was having breakfast with four knight retinues.
Russell sat down at the dining table: “Good morning.”
“Sir, your breakfast.” Butler Morris personally brought the breakfast over. Compared with the Fluorescent Castle buffet breakfast, the food here was a bit shabby, with only fish and egg risotto, bread and milk, and a small plate of jam.
Halfway through the meal, Charles yawned and went downstairs: “Good morning, Russell, it seems that self-discipline has become your instinct.”
Russell responded casually: “Good morning.”
Finished breakfast.
Butler Morris came over and reported: “Sir, foreman Old Hans and five village chiefs are here to listen to your instructions.”
“I was about to find something with him.” Russell said with a thought in his heart.
When we walked out of the manor, the sun was shining brightly, driving away the chill left from last night.
Old Hans and the five village chiefs immediately said hello to Russell, and then followed him step by step towards the Youguang River under the slope.
“Old Hans, are there clams or shells in the Youguang River?”
“Yes, sir, there are not only river mussels but also large field snails in the Youguang River. Sometimes the Baron will send people to collect a batch of river fresh food. The serfs can also take the opportunity to touch a few river mussels and big field snails and enjoy the river fresh food. tasty.”
Everything in the territory belongs to the lord, so even the fish and shrimp in the river belong to the lord’s private property.
“That’s it…Old Hans, I want to eat some river fresh food today. Can you help me go down to the river to catch some river mussels and large field snails?” Russell asked with a smile.
If he touches the river clams by himself, not only is it inconsistent with the behavior of a noble, but the behavior itself is very abrupt.
Old Hans rolled up his trousers without hesitation: “It is Old Hans’ honor to serve you, Master.”
Naturally, the five village chiefs were not to be outdone. They rolled up their trousers one after another and followed the old Hans barefoot into the cold twilight river.
The ice age retreated late, and the water in Youguang River was still very shallow at this time, with the water level at the riverside barely reaching the ankles.
After a while, a few people brought up a lot of river mussels and large field snails – they were very skilled, and it was obvious that they definitely touched fish and shrimps in the river on weekdays.
“Wow, what are you doing?” Charles also finished his breakfast and came over curiously, “Are you fishing for river mussels?”
Russell smiled and said: “I want to eat river seafood tonight.”
“Hey, river food, now you are in for a treat. The river food from Youguang River is a local delicacy.” Charles is not only good at wine, but also has a good appetite. “On weekdays, river food is only served at Fluorescent Castle. It’s rare to see it. ”
On the slope, Eric and his four knights were practicing fighting spirit seriously and did not come to join in the fun.
suddenly.
Old Hans raised a black river clam the size of a basketball and shouted excitedly: “Master, praise the dragon. Oh my God, look at this river clam. I have never touched such a big river clam.”
Saying that, the old Hans ran over holding the river clam and offered the treasure.
Russell’s eyes lit up. He seriously suspected that the magic light he saw last night was emanating from the body of this river clam, and there must be magic pearls inside.
Before he could remind him, Charles shouted: “Russell, hurry up, open it quickly, such a big river mussel might have grown magic pearls inside! Legend has it that some large shells can give birth to magical pearls like gem dragons. Magic Pearl!”
The gem dragon can nourish gem veins and is a magical creation bred by the earth.
Magic pearls obviously cannot be compared with gems, but they are also rare magic creations with magical effects.
“Can you pry it open, old Hans?”
“I don’t have a knife, sir.”
At this time, a fine steel sword was handed over. At some point, Eric also came over and handed over his sword.
But Old Hans pried for a long time, but could not pry open the big river clam.
“I’ll do it!” Eric couldn’t see it, and squatted down directly. His fighting spirit poured into the stainless steel sword, and he aimed at the gap in the clam shell and stabbed hard. The tightly closed clam shell could no longer bear it and was struck. The tip of the sword penetrated.
Click.
When Eric exerted force, the big river clam split open.
He abandoned the stainless steel sword, stretched out his hand to open the opening, and suddenly pulled open the two clam shells, revealing the golden-shined mussel meat inside.
Scratching open the mussel meat reveals a mantle. There are five irregular round protrusions underneath the mantle. The largest is the size of an egg, and the smallest is only the size of a marble.
“Wow, pearls, there really are pearls!” Charles said excitedly, “This time I really have to praise the dragon, Russell, there really are magic pearls in this!”
There are no ordinary pearls in this world, all pearls must have magic power.
Just like the gem mines nourished by the dragon, they all have magical power. Once the magic power is exhausted, the gems will break into pieces.
The same goes for pearls.
“Well done!” Russell clapped his hands gently. Although he had guessed it last night, he was still excited to actually catch the pearl.
After all, this was the first benefit he got from relying on his golden finger.
He immediately ordered: “Steward Morris, ask the kitchen to prepare a batch of milk tea to warm up Old Hans and the others.”
