Liszt Telescope is divided into two types: long tube and short tube. The long tube is a telescope used to observe the moon, with a magnification of more than thirty times; the short tube is a portable telescope he plans to build for the knight team. It can be stretched and has a magnification of about fifteen times at most.
Twenty meniscus lenses can only form one pair of long tubes and three pairs of short tubes, and the remaining lenses are unqualified.
He threw the lens to Carter: "Mr. Carter, look for it and see which pair of lenses can magnify the image. Then you can use it to read a book."
Carter is old and has poor eyesight. Wouldn't it be nice to give him a magnifying glass?
One pair of long barrels was left in the castle; three pairs of short barrels, Liszt carried one pair with him, Marcus's knight team got one pair, and Karl's patrol team got one pair.
This concludes the allocation.
Originally, Liszt planned to retain the crystal craftsman Brad with a high salary, but the other party refused without hesitation - Flower Town is indeed developing rapidly, but compared to Coral City, the gap is still huge, and it cannot attract these free folk craftsmen with good social status.
Same thing.
Isaiah's family came to Flower Town to visit him, but when Isaiah persuaded them to stay, they refused without hesitation - his son even said directly, "What a joke, there isn't even a brothel here!"
Gortai's family also came to visit Flower Town. They stayed for two days and then left.
After all, he is an aristocrat, and his children and grandchildren can live a good life, but he has no intention of living in the countryside. His wife actually planned to settle in Flower Town, but was rejected by Gortai for the very noble reason that Flower Town was too poor and did not want his wife to suffer.
In fact, I was afraid that the other party would discover the existence of Freya - Freya's belly was already swollen.
"Lord, I heard that you invented a telescope that can see far away?" Captain Kosto, after hearing the news, hurried to the castle, "I wonder if Flower can be equipped with a pair of telescopes? Navigating on the sea requires a very good field of vision, and the telescope can provide us with great help."
A very reasonable request.
Liszt is a bit confused. The telescope suitable for navigation is probably the long tube "Liszt Telescope" like the castle, but this is the equipment he uses to explore the universe.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Captain Kosto, you go back to train your sailor apprentice first. The logging team will soon open the road to the dock. Flower Town's own dock is about to be built. You can first familiarize yourself with the situation near the dock. As for the telescope, there will be one."
Send Kosto away.
Liszt took out a piece of crystal with a slight pain and handed it to Thomas: "Wait until the Flower Town transport team comes back, give it to the person in charge, and tell him to ask the Brad crystal craftsman to carve two sets of No. 3 and No. 17 lenses." No. 3 and No. 17 lenses are lens models that combine long tubes.
The telescope thing is more like a joke to Liszt.
After researching it, and not long after playing with it, he actually had no interest in the telescope - he looked at the moon and stars all day long, and could not tell the secrets of the operation of the universe at all.
So.
He took Dousen out to inspect the work of the logging team and relax.
To the north of Dairy Farm, there are large areas of Bramble bushes. This is the area covered by Thorn Bug grass. In addition to ordinary Bramble, the most The fast-growing variety is Bramble--including Fast-Growing Poison Thorn and Fast-Growing Thorn--Thorn Bug. I don't know if there will be a follow-up.
Bramble Further northeast from the bush is the work site of the logging team.
The scene was in full swing.
Thick smoke billows.
Countless serfs sweated and cut down big trees. Some used axes to cut off the trunks, some used saw blades to cut off the branches, some used machetes to chop branches and leaves, and still others piled the trunks together, piled the branches together, and took away the leaves and burned them on the spot.
Burning fires not only intimidate wild beasts and monsters, but also store plant ashes for composting when reclaiming wasteland in the future.
Clerks and patrol members constantly shuttled among the serfs, scolding and scolding them at every turn, urging them to work hard. Gortai, Isaiah, Blair, and Karl each commanded a large group of serfs to maintain order on the scene. Marcus led the knight squad and patrolled the perimeter carefully.
Seeing Liszt arriving, Gortai trotted over. "Good afternoon, sir."
"Good afternoon, Teacher Gortai." Liszt greeted, "A quarter of the town's population should be cutting down trees here. How long do you think it will take to cut down all the trees in Thorn Ridge?"
"If we have enough tools, it will only take twenty days, no, it may only take two weeks. But the tools are not enough, sir. Many people share an axe, a saw blade and a machete, which is too long. Even if the serfs respond enthusiastically to your call, they still cannot use their full strength."
"I have asked Flower Caravan to buy tools from various cities. Iron tools are too expensive and bone tools are too brittle... I hope my father can plunder a batch of iron ore, otherwise Coral Island's iron shortage situation will never be solved."
There are no metals, no gems, and the number of elves is very few.
The reason why the nobles are keen on fighting for the mainland instead of staying on the islands is often because they have no choice. If they had the vision of a prophet, they might develop technology to make up for this gap, but they don't, so they can only plunder resources from the mainland to make up for the shortcomings.
Why is Eagle Kingdom repeatedly harassed by the Sapphire Kingdom? It's because they have White Cast Iron Dragon, which can produce a large amount of iron ore.
Steel is probably the most practical metal among all metals.
So as long as Iron Ridge Kingdom calls for battle, Grand Duke Sapphire immediately gives the order Pioneer Order, and the nobles rush forward in a swarm - burn them all, kill them all, and rob them all.
Liszt sometimes thinks. "Why do I always feel that Sapphire Grand Duchy is a Japanese pirate from another world?"
Relying on his overseas establishment and developed fleet, he attacked the kingdoms on the mainland unscrupulously. He robbed and ran away, repeating this script every year, and was happy. Although there was no technical content, he still succeeded every year. The count had been to the mainland countless times.
Little by little, I accumulated a fortune as big as Coral Island.
"Sir, due to logging work, town construction and road construction have been temporarily suspended. The autumn harvest is coming soon, and Barley Hamlet and Wheat Hamlet may not have enough manpower."
"It won't be too late to send people back after the harvest date is determined." Liszt suddenly thought of something and looked at Gortai, "Teacher Gortai, how long have you followed me to Flower Town?"
Gortai was stunned, and then said, "Your Excellency entrusted Flower Town Baron on March 9th. He set off the next day and arrived at Flower Town that afternoon. Today is September 23rd, six months and two weeks have passed."
"Six and a half months flew by in a flash."
"But the Flower Town now is definitely not the Flower Town six months ago. It exudes vitality everywhere."
"Yes, I am very satisfied with the development of Flower Town." Liszt rode Li Dragon Horse, walking slowly, and the world in front of him has become one with himself. "What satisfies me most is the change in my thinking. Teacher Gortai, six months ago, you were shouting about drinking all day long, but now you know to finish your work first, then drink, and even delay drinking for the sake of work."
Gortai smiled awkwardly, "People always slack off when they get older. Fortunately, I came to Flower Town and regained the confidence and hard work of my youth."
"I'm very pleased with the changes in you."
Liszt looked into the distance and said, "Perhaps in a few days, a group of 500 serfs will arrive. I need you to make a resettlement plan. It is not just about arranging the serfs alone, but an overall plan for the future of Flower Town - as a consultant."
I heard the word "consultant".
Gortai's pupils suddenly dilated.
The release date has been roughly determined and will be on the shelves on April 27th of this month.
It's very sad. Others have 200,000 words to put on the shelves, and I have to put 370,000 words on the shelves. But Lao Bai will work hard. I wrote this book very smoothly myself!
Therefore, during this period of time, we basically maintain two updates a day, and when it is time to put it on the shelves, there will be another wave!
Finally, please vote for recommendation~
