Dressed as the second son of a knight, I have a chat group

Chapter 111 The cattle and horses delivered to the door are useless (4.2k)

Alicia picked up a small cake decorated with cream and chocolate, added a lot of white sugar and milk, swallowed it in one gulp, sucked her fingers covered in cream, her face couldn't help but She showed a sweet smile, covered her cheek with one hand, and hummed happily with her eyes closed.

"Well~ well, it turns out that sugar is a treasure on the same level as a cute girl. You are so happy here. I didn't dare to be so extravagant when I was in the Holy City with so much sugar. Otherwise, the old pope should It's chattering."

Alicia is a legend of a wizard and a priest. These two professions are basically inseparable from the spiritual field. The so-called spirit is naturally related to the brain. The mental work is very heavy, which makes wizards and priests very fond of sugar. Some wizards even like to chew non-melting soft candies in their mouths every day, and even eat some when they go to bed, so that they can fall asleep peacefully.

Sugar can be regarded as a kind of luxury goods in the current Sofia continent. It was even regarded as a panacea for treating diseases by medieval quack doctors. When encountering difficult and complicated diseases, they would weigh a small amount from the prescription with a precise small scale and then prescribe a prescription. Sold to patients at high prices.

Alicia and Lala have attended noble banquets in the past, even if one of them is the former First Princess of the Faran Empire, and the other is the only Holy Lady of the United Church, they have never seen eating and drinking together. On the other hand, there is such a luxurious and unique feast as Louis.

In other aristocratic banquets, they also pay attention to the cutting of a huge baked cake with a whole band playing music inside, or the pursuit of performance art in which a whole roasted cow is cut open and a flock of pigeons fly out of it.

The aristocratic banquet on Louis' side has evolved into a modern version through his personal reforms.

The noble and elegant symphony orchestra silently played the soothing music "created" by His Excellency Louis, the soft lights enveloped the entire hall, and the plants spawned by witchcraft were dotted with the venue, living in harmony with people, and the guests were in the venue It's like being in the fresh nature inside, and you can relax unconsciously.

In the venue, men and women dressed in elegant dresses, holding wine glasses, wandered around with banquet food that was different from the banquet food currently popular in Sofia mainland, but here it was so rich and novel.

Behind the large piece of luxurious glass, on the huge charcoal grill table, the chefs baked large steaks, lamb chops, pork chops, and fish steaks repeatedly, with unlimited extravagant cumin, cumin, star anise, Cinnamon and other spices.

The strong smell made many bumpkin nobles who had never seen the world unconsciously come to the barbecue area, stretching their necks and inhaling continuously, as if they were inhaling the fragrance of gold coins.

Well, from their point of view, by sprinkling spices on the barbecue like this, Louis is indeed burning gold coins.

On the long table in the center of the venue, there are all kinds of drinks, as well as a lot of novel pastries that have never been seen before, all kinds of cold ice cream, egg waffles dotted with cream, sweetened The sandwich Daifuku with toothless jam, thick milk tea with pudding, and seven or eight layers of big cream cake.

All the young ladies linger here, which can be said to fully reflect the saying "Girls have a second stomach for desserts".

Even the two princesses of the Kingdom of Hesse who sneaked in, Her Royal Highness Freya and Her Royal Highness Noren, forgot for a while the mission assigned by the king's father, and temporarily forgot their Prince Charming Louis, but lingered in the delicate and delicious food. between desserts.

It is estimated that when the banquet is over, the two princesses and sisters who are at odds with each other should blame each other and miss the opportunity to make friends with Louis, especially to leave a deep impression on Louis.

Of course, the aristocratic banquet should not be like this. The aristocrats should mainly focus on communication, not eating. It’s just that Louis, who is the only core present and the most important thing, doesn’t care much about etiquette and communication. I just want my girls to enjoy their meals, so it became like this.

In fact, this effect is indeed very good. Those who practice the knight route like Chloe, Anna, and Krosan basically like to hang around the barbecue. Roasted suckling pig was rolled back and forth over an open fire.

Unlike knight-side cultivators who prefer carbohydrates and proteins, those who pay more attention to mental activities, such as Illya, Anfei, Alicia, and Lala, prefer sweets and gather together in the central dessert area. We have a special liking for all kinds of cakes and drinks and appreciate each other.

Even Illya and Noren had a little dispute over which brownie or tiramisu is more suitable for the taste of wizards, which can be regarded as a success in disguise and left some impressions on Louis.

But I guess Nolen and Freya would rather not have this impression if they knew about it.

As for a wild girl like Xiang Ling, whose main purpose is to explore the special delicacies and ingredients of other worlds, she naturally ran away from both ends, like a cheerful little squirrel, eating the rice cake with her behind. Almost.

"It's really rich food. Of course, what's even more commendable is that no matter how luxurious this place is, there is not a single civilian who starved to death in the territory you rule."

Alicia praised from the bottom of her heart.

This is indeed rare. Alicia has seen more than once the flour and cheese wasted at aristocratic banquets in pursuit of show effects, and just when these foods were carelessly stepped on by the clowns and performers who emerged from them. At the foot, in this territory, more serfs were starved to death on their straw mats.

Alicia has used her savings to save the civilians at the bottom more than once, but this is just a drop in the bucket. She can save one, two, ten or hundreds of civilians, but she cannot save the civilians on the entire continent.

So she was very curious, why Louis is so extravagant, even wastes some spices more than other nobles on the mainland, but his subjects—actually the subjects of Einzbern, but Everyone doesn't care anymore, and it is assumed that Einzbern already belongs to Louis-why can he still have enough food and clothing?
Louis smiled. He couldn't tell Alicia that he had to mobilize tens of thousands of tons of various materials from other modern worlds every week this month to fill the city of Catalia to maintain his comfortable life. In addition to the materials I enjoyed, they were naturally circulated to the market in the entire Newland Province, which in a disguised form allowed all the citizens of the Newland Province to drink some soup.

It’s not that Louis had a heart attack and supported the entire Einzbern Territory, or even the entire Newland Province, out of his own pocket, but that Louis was providing this group of people with a life that was actually considered “luxury” by the Sophia people. The country bumpkins showed the pie he painted and told them what real life was like in the end.

Others are vain cakes, and Louis, who should also go to the street lamp, still has a little conscience at the end. He knows to let them experience a good life for a month first, to broaden the horizons of these bumpkins, and to let their minds be more open.

Although he can forcibly order some orders that the local aborigines don't understand, no one will object to them with his current strength, but in that case, the subjective initiative of the people below can be imagined. The big pie that can be seen or even touched is hung, and the people below will take the initiative to complete Louis' orders.

And after actually experiencing the beauty of the big pie, if in the subsequent reforms, if they are obsessed with others, deliberately greedy for money, or do not implement the policies promoted by Louis, then Louis will not complain about crushing them.

"You are really, this is too...too kind?!"

Don't get me wrong, Alicia is not talking ironically, she really thinks so from the bottom of her heart.

After all, in the eyes of people on the mainland of Sophia, if anyone refuses to listen to the policies and things that are being implemented by a "natural disaster", it is not an injustice at all. Even the deceased himself will close his eyes peacefully. How could Louis do this? Is there any reason to be reasonable in advance?
"Who told me that the education I received since childhood was, 'If you don't teach, you punish them, and you call them abuse; if you teach them, but don't change them, and you punish them, you call it the king's way.'"

Although there is not much left of the moral education he received in his previous life after 16 years of tossing around in a different world, but after all, this little material is not important to him, and the talents that Louis needs are not yet in place. Time to make this move.

The materials transported over the past month were circulated in Newland Province. Although most of the benefits still went into the pockets of various bureaucrats and nobles, the people at the bottom could still enjoy the soup.

——This soup was actually given out under Louis' severe punishment. However, Louis pretended not to notice it for the time being and just wrote down all these people. Even if there were some who were related to Einzbern, he I also made a note of it. It would be better for these nobles who have no vision to go see their ancestors as soon as possible. It is estimated that Mr. Ahad will personally take action against these relatives who have no vision in the end.

Today's dinner is not counted in this aspect for the time being. It is the materials that Louis purchased from the world of One-Punch Superman and the world of Apocalypse Academy, the Fubuki group, the convenience store owner, and the Takashiro family. Hundreds of tons of sugar were prepared.

Well, of course, even if the wizards are addicted to sugar, one hundred tons of white sugar cannot be used up in one night.

However, in a few months, this situation of simply importing consumable materials will end. For Louis, when the talents, technology and equipment from other worlds are initially in place, he will end the stage of drawing cakes.

After all, it is not a problem to always purchase supplies from other modern societies and feed them back to the Sofia continent. It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them how to fish. In his free time after partying all day long, Louis was in the sage's time, so that he could stay in the Sofia continent in the future. Life is going more smoothly, and I still think carefully about farming in Sophia.

Of course, this guy is farming now purely for the sense of accomplishment and for his future living environment, so that the troubled continent of Sophia can breathe a sigh of relief, and his pursuit of personal life is much smaller.

Just like Chinese people always feel uncomfortable when they see an empty land without planting anything, some things are imprinted in DNA.

However, farming also needs a foundation. Even if it is all thrown to Ahadeon to cause headaches, the old man is also a clever woman who can't cook without rice. There is no one who can carry out Louis' will, and this matter has not been pushed forward.

Louis didn't have the spare time to engage in education first. After a few years of training, he would teach a group of cultural elements in primary and secondary schools. He planned to directly recruit talents from other places.

The primary target is the world of School Apocalypse, where a dead body crisis is about to break out, and the biochemical world, where it is unknown whether a biochemical crisis will break out.

Suitable talents from other worlds will be recruited if they can. For example, in the world of Tivat before, the Lawrence family can continue tenaciously for thousands of years despite being so suppressed. , and even the family resources can breed such an excellent black slime as Yura...I mean an excellent knight. It can be seen that the Lawrence family still has two brushes. At least this heritage has been consumed for thousands of years and has not been cleaned up.

Louis, who packed up the entire Lawrence family and brought them back to the mainland of Sophia, planned that except for Yula's uncle who was thrown away and eaten to death, everyone else in this family would be the actual executive staff at the grassroots level, and set up a system that would allow Louis The will will be carried out to the underlying structure of the underlying implementation.

In addition to talents from other worlds, if there are talents from the mainland of Sophia that Louis has his eyes on, he is not prepared to let them go.

For example, Alicia who is delivered to your door now.

Church saint, philanthropic, responsible, kind, legendary wizard.

Grass, what an excellent cow and horse this is, Louis feels sorry for himself if he doesn't squeeze it twice.

Moreover, the Holy Lady is not only an excellent candidate herself, but also the Knights of the Holy Lady who were established because of her admiration for the Holy Lady, and the nuns and priests who accompany the Holy Lady. These people are all rare educated talents in this continent.

and so--

"I have a task for you, Miss Alicia."

"Just call me Ellie. Mr. Louis, may I ask what's going on?"

Louis suffocated for a moment: "Well, let's forget about the name Ellie. Although I always call my fiancée's mother Sister Ellie, it's too easy to confuse her."

"Okay then, just call me Alicia."

"I am going to implement a new type of planting and farming method in all the noble manors in Newland Province. I have also prepared new mass-produced fertilizers and pesticides, as well as auxiliary cash crops and breeding products. I just want to achieve my goal. The expected effects require the cooperation of many people with certain education to promote this new type of agriculture and animal husbandry."

Alicia is very interested in the new type of agriculture and animal husbandry that Louis said. After all, the new god or saint in front of me, although he is now the most powerful force in the Sophia continent, everyone will never forget that this Before my father made his fortune, he was famous for his agricultural reforms and toilets.

"I'm very interested in this~."

Alicia became even more interested when she heard Louis say that at the very least, the agricultural output in Newland Province, which had already undergone a reform, would be doubled again.

Among other things, if it is really possible to double the existing grain production again, then no other means are needed. If this method is extended to the whole continent, the increased grain production will be enough to feed and clothe the people of the current Sophia continent up.

Well, of course, we must also be careful not to let the nobles see the huge increase in food production and directly raise various exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes to [-]%.

　I thought that God Xiaocao was already the floor of the Seven Gods, but I didn't expect Fufu to look more... Forget it, anyway, Fufu's character is cuter than Naxida, so that's it enough.

　　Now Villette doesn't seem to be the Water Dragon King either. Although Fontaine's terrain, a pile of huge ribs comparable to mountains, should be the remains of the Water Dragon King, it seems that Xinhai still has some hope?

　　Genshin Impact opened Fontainebleau the day before yesterday, and Azure launched France event yesterday, and so on, they all got into trouble with France.
