Before dawn the next day, serfs were busy salvaging retting manure from the dung cellars in each village. The serfs carried the retting manure in the direction of Dairy Farm.
The disbanded logging team also regrouped. Under the escort of the knight team, they came to the bush where the Thorn Bug grass was. Marcus, carrying Falcon Feather Arrow on his back, scouted the bush to make sure there were no monsters lurking around, and then turned around and nodded to Gortai.
"Sir, it's safe around here."
"That's good." Gortai turned around and yelled at the serfs, "Pick up your spirits and start working. I took the Copper Coin from the lord. If anyone dares to be lazy in work, I will definitely whip him to death! Remember, Bramble is not allowed to touch, and all other trees will be cut down, leaving no one alive."
The serfs responded one after another.
Then start cutting down the trees.
They didn't know why they came here to cut down trees, but the town official gave the order and they just did it. Besides, they could get two Copper Coin in reward a day.
After a while, the manure picking team arrived, and Gortai was busy directing the serfs to fertilize Bramble.
Financial officer Isaiah followed. He wanted to calculate the remuneration of each serf. After counting the number of workers, he would record the data on Parchment. He stretched and chatted with Gortai: "What do you think of Master Baron? Why do you take such good care of Thorn Bug?"
"I don't know either, but adults always do this for a purpose."
"Gortai, you are becoming more and more devoted to Flower Town."
"Why not? The development here is full of vitality. I will probably spend the rest of my life here. So, it is a good thing to develop it, isn't it? I am not used to living in the barren countryside, but there is still a lot of fun to be found in the rich countryside."
"Of course, no one likes poverty."
"For the sake of adults, and for ourselves, Isaiah, we have to forge ahead." Gortai glanced at his old friend, who had recently been tempted and wanted to follow Liszt.
"I guess... yeah."
Several officials in the town, Gortai, Blair, Karl, and Marcus, have all become followers of Liszt. As the only official who has not yet followed, Isaiah naturally feels the pressure.
Gortai didn't say much. The final decision still had to be up to Isaiah himself. "Isaiah, let's check the Bramble bushes to see if there are any special Brambles. Your Excellency has explained that Thorn Bug has been a little restless recently. Maybe there are changes in the Bramble bushes."
"Then what are you waiting for? I have to search carefully. If I find a Magic Potion Thorn, tsk tsk... By the way, Flame Mushroom of Mushroom Hamlet, haven't you researched the ingredients yet?"
Gortai spread his hands. "It's not that easy. Planting Flame Mushroom with various ingredients has failed. If it weren't for Flame Mushroom growing in the shiitake mushroom shed of Bob's house in Wainneck, maybe we would have messed up Flame Mushroom. The adults value Flame Mushroom very much, and I don't even know how to report it."
Flame's cultivation work is in trouble.
Gortai has mobilized all Mushroom Hamlet growers and assigned them Flame Mushroom seeds for them to cultivate.
Unfortunately, they all ended in failure - it is said that the crooked neck Bob was so sick that he stayed in the shed all day long and watched the Flame Mushroom grow, but he just couldn't figure out why Flame Mushroom could grow in his own shed. After re-dosing the ingredients, it stopped working and the Flame Mushroom seeds would always wither and die.
"Maybe I should tell Lord Baron, Lord Baron will have good suggestions."
"Why do you say that?"
"Gortai, don't you think Lord Baron is knowledgeable? He knows a lot. His vision is broader than all of us. He can see the vast world that we cannot see."
"Well, this is how you view adults?"
"In fact, it was Marcus who said it. Retainer Knight, who wants to be a noble, admires Lord Baron very much."
Gortai thought for a moment, "Perhaps I should really report to the adults. The matter of Flame Mushroom is not a project that I can show off."
He wants to express himself in order to win a consultant position.
But he knew more clearly that if he messed up Flame Mushroom, Liszt would probably kill him - anyone could estimate the importance of potions to a lord.
At noon, Liszt came to Thorn Bug and walked around the grass bushes to inspect the progress and asked if any unusual species of Bramble had been found.
The officials did not gain anything. Liszt cast Magic Eye on his own and did not see any abnormal Bramble.
Now he has confirmed that - Smoke Mission cannot create reward items out of thin air. The rewards actually exist in this world. As long as you are willing to dig, you can still get the reward items even if you do not pass the mission.
This gives him a lot of choices.
He can choose to complete the task and let Smoke Mission deliver the reward items, which is relaxing and comfortable.
You can also choose to avoid tasks and directly obtain reward items to "refresh" new tasks.
He even thought - maybe the mission will fail, but he doesn't know what kind of "punishment" there will be after the mission fails, whether it will punish the reward items to stay away from him, or there will be some other additional punishment. Or, after the mission fails, will there be a new mission?
"Perhaps we can try it one day. The consequences of mission failure. However, if it can be completed, we should complete it as much as possible and don't artificially create bad consequences."
Shaked his head.
Liszt is no longer entangled. Since no abnormalities can be found in Bramble, the new variety Bramble can only be obtained after completing the task.
Gortai came over. "Sir, there may be something wrong with Flame Mushroom's training."
"What's the problem?" Liszt suddenly became nervous.
"We arranged for all the serfs who grow shiitake mushrooms to be given Flame Mushroom seeds, but no one succeeded in making the Flame Mushroom seeds survive. It seems that Flame Mushroom can only grow in the shiitake mushroom shed of Bob's family in Wainneck. But we can't find any difference between his shiitake mushroom shed and other shiitake mushroom sheds."
It's been almost a month.
Flame Mushroom still has not been cultivated.
Liszt feels that there must be a big problem here. In fact, he has been paying attention to it, but he is just willing to give the serfs time to solve it-the lord will not have to worry about himself every day.
I didn't expect to wait for a month.
The Flame Mushroom species distributed showed no signs of survival.
Logically speaking, the cultivation of mushrooms is very fast. After the spores germinate, it basically takes a few days to grow from mycelium into fruiting bodies, and they can be harvested in less than two months. However, the Flame Mushroom species (mycelium) cannot survive at all. The serfs have changed various ingredients and environments, but it just doesn't work.
Without professional scientific research talents, Liszt can only let Gortai lead the way, and then go to Mushroom Hamlet for on-site investigation.
See if you can deduce some reasons based on your own knowledge.
Come to Mushroom Hamlet.
Seeing the crooked-necked Bob with bloodshot eyes and haggard appearance, the other party knelt directly on the ground, trembling all over. "Lord, Bob is a waste, and Flame Mushroom cannot be cultivated for a month."
Liszt did not blame Bob.
Just asking in detail about the process of Bob cultivating Flame Mushroom.
After listening, he glanced at Flame Mushroom and cast Magic Eye, trying to find out the source of the problem. He looked at a few Flame Mushroom growing on the mushroom ingredients, and then looked at the Flame Mushroom species in the prepared new ingredients. He found a somewhat confusing place.
Normal Flame Mushroom, Magic Power is a process of condensation.
Including the Flame Mushroom types it produces, it is also constantly condensing Magic Power.
However, after inoculation, the Flame Mushroom species in the new ingredients cannot condense Magic Power, and will slowly lose Magic Power.
"What's the reason for this?"
In the new week, Lao Bai would like to ask everyone for some recommendation votes!
