The slack farmers on the dairy farm were summoned by Li Sijie to reclaim the wasteland around the castle and cultivate alfalfa.
Originally, according to Gao Ertai's intention, serfs who were lords had to come and work unconditionally.
Liszt was not so exploitative, he decided to manage the farmers three meals a day, and the common people usually had two meals a day, so they rushed to work.
He evened out a little of the excess wheat bran in the castle and distributed it to the working farmers. Wheat bran is the peeling off of wheat. In his place, he only eats fine wheat flour. Wheat bran is basically used to feed horses, but common people eat it. The wheat bran cakes he used to feed the horses were the food eaten by many farmers.
"In other words, the nutritional value of wheat bran is higher than that of wheat flour." Liszt remembered that he bought wheat bran cakes in his previous life. The seller claimed that wheat bran is rich in dietary fiber and vitamin B, which can improve constipation and lower cholesterol. Bran is really unpalatable and difficult to digest.”
As a nobleman, he does not lack that bit of nutrition, so there is no need to force himself to eat rough wheat bran.
Nobles naturally eat white bread.
Here, bread is an absolute staple food, and it can be divided into nine grades according to different materials and textures. There are four grades of white bread and five grades of brown bread.
The best white bread is made of fine wheat flour that has been sifted and selected layer by layer. Only the nobles have enough financial resources, material resources and manpower to make this kind of white bread. The price of this kind of white bread is also surprisingly expensive, at least several silver coins per piece.
The second-class white bread is made of sifted fine wheat flour, because the coarse particles are sifted out, and the taste is very delicate. Usually a piece is sold for one silver coin.
The first-class white bread is made of fine wheat flour that has not been sifted, and the taste is slightly inferior. One silver coin can buy two or three pieces.
The last first-class white bread is made of coarse wheat flour, which is simply processed flour, and the taste is even worse. You can buy one for ten copper coins. The white bread that Liszt currently eats is the white bread of this grade, and the white bread eaten in Tulip Fort is the white bread of the above grade.
Commoners eat black bread.
Only a few copper coins of "bran-removed whole-wheat bread" can be eaten by wealthy freemen among the common people; a copper plate of "no-bran whole-wheat bread" can probably be eaten by ordinary freemen; , Most of them are wheat flour without bran mixed with other flours to make "mixed black bread". One copper plate can buy four pieces.
The poorer serfs either ate "grain black bread" made from peas and other grains ground into flour, or wheat bran cakes made entirely of bran.
In addition, Liszt also knew a kind of black bread, which was very commonly made by commoners.
This kind of black bread, after being fermented, will become very, very hard, and the civilians will cut it into slices, and then use it as a plate or as a table foot.
It is said that some plates of black bread can be used for several months.
"The evil feudal society." Liszt said hypocritically, withdrawing his thoughts, and had no intention of breaking the aristocratic system. The ass determines the head. As a nobleman, he can enjoy the status bestowed by the times, and he will not pull himself off the noble chair.
Besides, it is also very difficult to break. There is no dragon or elf, so what can I use to break it.
"Master, do you need to bring the fire dragon horse?" Thomas asked cautiously. He was always so cautious in front of Liszt.
"No. By the way, Thomas, how is Li Longma in the stable, has he lost his temper?"
"My lord, your new big guy has been bullying Huo Longma last night, but this morning, Huo Longma can already graze next to it."
Liszt nodded, not surprised.
One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, unless there is one male and one female.
The Lilong horse is a male horse, and the Fire Dragon horse is a mare, so it is only natural to deal with each other peacefully. Moreover, there is a great possibility that the first batch of descendants of Lilongma will be produced by Huolongma—Liszt has no objection, Huolongma is also an excellent breed, mixed with the blood of low-level magical beast Huolima, only a strong combination can produce better offspring .
No longer follow.
Liszt began to practice the moves in "Flame Wave".
Ordinary earth knights will not practice the next cheat book until they have mastered the fighting qi cheat book that suits them best. Liszt has a good understanding, and he is still familiar with "Fire Dragon Diamond", so he can also study "Flame Wave" at the same time. Unlike the heads-up "Fire Dragon Diamond", "Flame Wave" focuses on group battles.
The moves are often, the sword sweeps a large area, and the spear picks a large group.
Before he knew it, he was already immersed in his cultivation, and he kept releasing fire-attribute fighting energy, scorching the surrounding air. The power is unknown, at least the scene is full of power.
"Big fire wave!"
A sword slashed, and flames shot out again.
He saw the butler Carter and walked towards him quickly.
He couldn't help putting away his fighting spirit and asked, "Mr. Carter, what's the matter?"
"My lord, just now Jesse came back from cutting horse grass outside and said that he saw a caravan. I guess, maybe it's the team of the Earl and the Baron."
Liszt cheered up: "Is it finally here? Please inform the two teachers to come and welcome the convoy with me. I'll take a shower and change clothes first."
Hurry upstairs to take a shower.
After a while, Marcus and Galtai arrived.
The castle is located on a soil slope, and the line of sight is relatively good. You can already see the direction of Thorn Ridge in the distance, and the slow convoy is heading here.
"Mr. Gao Ertai, remember to remind me to rectify the patrol team. No one reminded me of the arrival of the convoy, and I had to find out about it from my servants before I knew."
"The patrols are bastards, you'll have to lend me the squires and train them."
"No problem." Liszt got on his horse, instead of riding the fire dragon horse, he rode his newly tamed Lilong horse and showed himself, "Come with me to meet the convoy. Father probably won't come here in person, follow the Tulip Elf , maybe my brother."
The three drove their horses to meet them.
Carter was busy calling all the servants: "Cheer up, remember to organize your clothes, don't look dirty, and lose face of the master! Jesse, it's you, oh my god, your pants There is still mud on it, are you trying to make us all lose our heads, go back and replace it!"
"Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Carter." Jesse Taomishui, a flaxen-haired assistant manservant, hurried back to his room to change his pants.
Carter shouted again: "Mrs. Mawson, tell Mrs. Abby to prepare the desserts, tea and snacks. Also remember to prepare the ingredients. Prepare according to the most sumptuous banquet. There will be people who need to be entertained by the master himself."
"Do you mean that nobles will come?"
"Of course there will be. You know that the black tulip is very important. The elves of the family will come to assimilate. Maybe it's Master Levi's escort, maybe it's Master Lytton, they are all important people anyway. We can't embarrass the master, and Thomas colleagues."
Thomas's companion, that is, the personal servants of various nobles.
After a lot of busy work, soon, at the gate of the castle, under the leadership of the butler Carter, the male and female servants stood on both sides of the gate, waiting for the distinguished guests to come in.
