Buck-toothed Miller was full of praise for Mrs. Moore’s cooking.
This is not to cater to Russell’s taste, but I really feel that “secret method of onion and ginger fresh fish soup”, “secret method of sweet and sour pork loin”, “secret method of braised chicken with rice” are dubbed “secret method, secret method, secret method” “The new style dishes called are delicious.
“It’s so delicious, Lord Russell. Your cook, Mrs. Moore, must be an amazing gourmet!”
Miller’s mouth was full of oil after eating, and his teeth were a little leaky, but this did not prevent him from getting the supreme satisfaction.
Russell is quite satisfied with the recognition of Huge Tooth Miller.
To be honest, although these new dishes have such popular names, in fact not many people can accept them.
One place, one taste.
What’s more, Longmian Continent is still a different world, so it is naturally difficult to resonate with Russell’s taste in terms of food.
It’s rare to find someone who truly loves these foods.
When the dinner was over, Huge-Tooth Miller said goodbye and left. Russell gave Charles a slight signal: “Let’s give him some tax concessions. After a brief contact, Huge-Tooth Miller… is a pretty good person.”
Charles nodded: “As you wish.”
In the next two days, Huoya Miller’s grocery store quickly went online in the small market. He rented a private house, hung up a sign, and put out a modest assortment of groceries, and began selling to the entire Black-waisted Snake Manor.
“When your clay bricks are fired, I will use them to build a grocery store that integrates selling goods and living in it.” Huya Miller promised.
“I’ll give you a 20% discount!” Russell waved his hand, “If your family is willing to settle in Wuyao Snake Manor, I will give you another hundred acres of land.”
“Really, my lord?”
“certainly.”
“Then I will go back and discuss it with my family. I can guarantee that as long as the grocery store is built, my wife and I will definitely settle here. As for my son and the others, they may have to look at their own opinions.”
“Okay, that’s it.” It’s just some wasteland. If it can increase the population, Russell doesn’t mind giving it away.
No one is cultivating these lands anyway, so they can collect some taxes.
It is definitely cheaper for free people to farm and collect taxes than for serfs to farm, but no matter how cheap it is, it is still a benefit.
Wait until night.
The familiar cry of “ga” came, and the little Menglong, who had been sleeping for six days after consuming two mouthfuls of Dragon Flame, came back again.
“Ice cream, my dragon!”
“Gah!”
“Take off, Ice Cream, Sword Butterfly, let’s go for a walk around the manor. It’s been a long time since I’ve been around. I’ve almost forgotten what each road looks like.” Russell turned over and rode on the little Menglong, and the surrounding area instantly bloomed. Magic light.
Flying all the way, even though the speed is only fifteen kilometers per hour, time flows very slowly in the dark dreamland.
So Russell still visited many places in the manor.
pity.
No new magical light could be found. Russell has already collected almost all the treasures in this land. It will be difficult to find new treasures in a short time.
The night passed.
The next day, the messenger knight from Phosphorus Castle arrived, and it was still his old acquaintance Raphael: “Master Russell, the Baron has given an order. All lords and lords, please go to Phosphorus Castle on time at noon today to participate in the business road cleaning meeting!”
“Have a cup of milk tea, Sir Raphael. Let’s take a rest and then we’ll set off.” Russell asked someone to take Raphael to drink tea.
Immediately, arrangements were made for Butler Maurice and Knight Commander Eric was notified to prepare for the upcoming snowfield mission.
“I can go to the snowfield again, let’s make some money!” Russell sighed in his heart.
I have really spent a lot of money recently. Although Rosie the Mushroom Bird will be able to make back all the small money quickly, it will take some time after all.
but.
He quickly thought again that he had promised the ice cream that all the proceeds from this trip to the snowfield would be fed to it as compensation.
“You can’t keep your word… Well, just think of it as working part-time to cultivate ice cream.” Russell smiled bitterly and shook his head. This is the worry of happiness. “I really don’t have money to spend. At the worst, I can ask my mother to borrow some.” ”
After a pause, he shook his head again: “No, it’s not borrowing, it’s financing!”
Mrs. Meryl’s dowry is rich and has not been used much in recent years. It can be invested in Russell.
Guaranteed profit without loss!
After Raphael finished drinking the milk tea, Russell also explained the matter, so he took the Red-Eyed Rat King with him and set off to the Fluorescent Castle together.
When they arrived at Fluorescent Castle, several lords came over to greet them warmly. Even Lord Marcus no longer greeted them coldly.
Since Russell got Rosie the Mushroom Bird, his status has undergone tremendous changes.
Originally, his life trajectory in the eyes of the lords was at most the next Rosen Fluorescent Mushroom. Everyone was a vassal of Baron Roman, and no one was more noble than anyone else, even if he was the second son of Baron Roman.
After all, the baron will one day be passed down to his eldest brother Roland.
But things are different now. Russell has a broader future. He doesn’t have to be limited to the Netherworld Valley. He can even follow the Grand Duke.
Choose to become a direct vassal of the Grand Duke.
Earls and barons had limited territories, and they encouraged their vassals to follow the Grand Duke to relieve the pressure on their territories. Especially the second son of the family will be encouraged to actively move closer to the Grand Duke, which can not only relieve the pressure on the family, but also open up new branches for the family.
“Russell, your red-eyed rat king is very cool. Do you have any idea to sell it for a good price?” Old Lord Sally stared at the red-eyed rat king with jealousy.
His son has become a great knight, but he has no chance to contract a fantasy beast.
Therefore, the old Lord Sally hoped that his son could contract a phantom beast. If the phantom beast could only contract with one master in its life, he would even sacrifice himself and leave the phantom beast, the black-feathered crow, to his son.
“Sorry, Mr. Sally.” Russell shook his head and refused.
Phantom beasts are priceless treasures, not to mention the red-eyed rat king’s magic is bloodthirsty flickering, which even he is jealous of.
If he has no better choice when he becomes a great knight in the future, he will choose to contract with the Red-Eyed Rat King.
Deeply develop the bloodthirsty blinking magic, preferably to blink several kilometers away in one step.
When the time comes, even if he encounters a snow giant on the snowfield, he will be able to escape confidently, which is equivalent to having an extra life.
“What a pity.” Old Lord Sally said regretfully and did not force it. “If you change your mind, you can come to me at any time. I am willing to give everything for it.”
Russell smiled and did not respond.
Since the Red-Eyed Rat King is not for sale, he naturally doesn’t want others to think about him anymore.
Soon everyone entered the conference hall of the castle. This time, Mr. Ross did not come to join in the fun, and Russell no longer suffered its contempt.
A huge map hangs on the wall of the conference room.
The map outlines in detail the geography of the entire Shadow Flame Grand Duchy, including mountains, rivers, lakes, and large areas of surrounding snowfields.
The baron held a baton and pointed at the bottom of the map, on a long and narrow river valley terrain: “This year’s warm season is heating up very quickly. There are no large-scale groups of snow ghosts on several commercial roads. It is estimated that there will be small groups later. The snow ghost will also retreat.”
Moving the baton upward, several dotted lines stretched out above the valley terrain to represent trade routes. Baron Roman continued: “This time, we will focus on cleaning up the mountain and river trade routes, opening up the road to the oasis, and restoring the Thunder Beast pulling carts as soon as possible.”
