Take away a pair of crystal lamps that you have made.
Back in the castle, Liszt ordered his servants to install crystal lamps in his study. The lamps made of white crystal emitted a gentle white light, much like natural light, although not as strong as sunlight. Just one crystal lamp was as bright as ten candles.
"It's about the brightness of a 50-watt incandescent lamp, but it's not strong enough. It's best to install two more."
Installing three crystal lamps in a house is the most suitable brightness. It is more dazzling and less dim. These crystal lamps can be lit for several years and remain on. They can also be designed to be turned on and off at any time, but that requires a high degree of technical craftsmanship and is not cost-effective.
The value of crystal is indeed very high, but the price is not unacceptably high.
Tulip Castle There are hundreds of crystal lamps, which are bright all day long and will never fall into darkness. Many nobles like to use crystal to carve tableware. After the enfeoffment, Liszt also got a set of exquisite crystal tableware. Although Magic Power has been exhausted, it is used to entertain distinguished guests, and it still highlights the class.
"You also need to install a crystal lamp in the bedroom, and then you have to install a lampshade. In this way, you don't need to turn off the light. As long as you turn off the lampshade, it means turning off the light." He is used to sleeping in the dark, and he can't sleep with the light on.
Command the servant to correct the position of the crystal lamp.
He calculated silently with his fingers. At the speed of Granney, it would take about three to five days to complete ten crystal lamps. Ten lamps can be used for five rooms at most, but he did not plan to add more. Taking out so many crystals at one time was a bit out of line, so it was better to keep a low profile.
Besides, three lamps in the study, two in the living room, two in the dining room, two in the bedroom, and one in the bathroom are enough for him to use.
"Sir, Mr. Marcus is here and is waiting for you in the living room." Carter came over.
"Did Teacher Marcus say something?"
"He came to report on the serf children's knight training."
Liszt thought for a while and said, "Let me tell Karl·Hammer and Rom·Barrel to come over. In addition, call all my twelve Retainer Knight over. I want to hold a meeting."
Go downstairs.
Met Marcus.
"Sir, Marcus would like to send you my regards."
"Good day." Liszt said while letting Thomas arrange his tie, "Teacher Marcus, let's go talk under the Apple tree. I also invited other people to have a meeting to discuss knight training."
Apple tree is a wild fruit tree not far from the castle entrance.
There are stone benches and wooden tables under the tree, and Liszt often reads or thinks about problems under the tree. Unfortunately, this season, Apple has been used to it. So he cannot study Newton for the time being. He was hit on the head by Apple, and then he came up with the epoch-making law of gravity.
When Apple grows on the tree next year, he will definitely think about astronomy, physics, magic and fighting spirit under the tree.
"Apple is a good thing. Three Apple can change the world." Liszt sat down and pointed to the Apple tree with a smile.
Marcus doesn't know why. "Apple It's delicious, but how will it change the world?"
"Do you know how humans came to be?"
"We are the rulers of nature, born at the same time as this continent, my lord."
Well, looking at Marcus's serious answer, Liszt suddenly felt bored. This Earth Knight is not a person who can show humor. So he kept the story short. "There is a legend that the first two people ate Apple and created the current human beings."
Marcus asked, "Then why are three Apple changing the world?"
Eating forbidden fruit, gravity, Apple mobile phone... Liszt regretted starting this topic, so he had to talk nonsense. "Later, some people ate Apple to cultivate fighting spirit, and some people ate Apple to create magic. Of course, these are all legends. From the perspective of knight novels, the authors of those novels have good imaginations."
"Those magicians? They can't change the world. The world belongs to knights!"
"..."
Talk nonsense for a moment.
Karl and Rom have arrived, and Retainer Knight is also forming a circle under the Apple tree.
Looking at Marcus, Karl, Rom sitting upright, and Retainer Knight standing upright, Liszt suddenly thought of King Arthur and his Round Table. This fictional king of ancient Britain liked to have meetings around a round table with his knights. Europeans have written many stories about King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table.
Little Japan has also published many stories about King Arthur.
"If one day in the future, I ascend the throne as king, will this table under the Apple tree be called the Apple table or Apple table conference by future generations? Will these veterans Marcus, Karl, and Rom be called Apple Zhuo Knights by future generations? Maybe just call them Apple Knights?"
Thoughts are fleeting.
He said seriously, "Teacher Marcus, the grouping of serf children has ended?"
"Yes, sir, there are three hundred and fifty-four children, excluding the twenty-six who are deformed and cannot be trained, leaving three hundred and twenty-eight, including one hundred and sixty-nine boys and one hundred and fifty-nine girls. According to your instructions, I divided the girls into a separate group, and the boys into a passing group and a failing group."
"The girls' group will be given to Rom for training." Liszt made a direct decision, "The purpose of the training is to strengthen their bodies so that they can arrange their work in the future. If there are outstanding seedlings who can cultivate fighting spirit, we will make other arrangements."
Rom immediately stood up and saluted. "As you wish, Rom will strictly train these girls!"
It is not mainstream for women to practice fighting spirit. At least when most lords choose knights, they will choose boys. However, it is not fixed. There are also many lords who train female knights... My sister Lvera has trained a group of girls and is preparing to form a female knight team. Of course, she has also trained more boys.
Liszt trains girls not to form a team of female knights.
Rather, it is hoped that women can increase their strength and do some heavy work in the future, or in other words, be fully contracted for farming work, freeing up the male labor force. Men can work as workers in workshops, and can do more physical work such as building roads, bridges, and shipbuilding.
More importantly, as a woman's physique becomes stronger, the difficulty of giving birth will be reduced, and the baby's survival rate will be greatly improved.
In addition, there is another point - if a few female knights with outstanding talents really emerge, they can be named Retainer Knight. If they are fair-skinned and beautiful female knights, they can be adjusted as personal guards. Wouldn't it be wonderful?
"The failing group will be handed over to Karl for training."
Liszt put away his little thoughts and continued, "The training for the unqualified group is the same as that of the girls' group. It is to strengthen the body and it is best to cultivate fighting spirit. In the future, among this group of people, those with fighting spirit can be included in the patrol team and Bug Protection Team, and those without fighting spirit can build roads and bridges."
Karl stood up and accepted the order, "As you wish!"
"Finally, the passing group will be handed over to teacher Marcus for training. They are the candidates for the territory guard knights in the future. Philip, Xavier, you Retainer Knight will take turns assisting teacher Marcus to train the passing group... I think the passing group should be divided into several groups according to age levels and trained separately."
Marcus nodded. "It can be divided into a group under six years old, which mainly trains etiquette and basic skills; a group between six and eight years old, which mainly trains fighting spirit and loyalty; a group above eight years old, which mainly trains courage and riding charges."
