Wear to the Middle Ages to engage in construction

"Little Lance... Long time no see." Duke Edward looked at Tang Feiliu with menacing eyes for a long time before he relaxed. He said softly, "Thanks to you, my journey back was very easy."

When the snow began to pile up, the Duke had already passed through York, where he replenished a little, and then went straight to Black Swan Castle again. In fact, Evans was also worried on the way. The heavy snow piled up this year. If it is blocked, it will be very dangerous.

Especially the section of the mountain road that is about to reach Black Swan Castle, which is narrow and unmaintained, coupled with the heavy snow, is a test of everyone's luck. The lovely Duke Edward is unmoved, and must speed up to go back, Evans I can only sit in the carriage while praying to Lucifer.

Then they experienced a shock - because when they walked around the mountain road and walked within the range of Black Swan Castle, they saw a team of seven or eight men braving the heavy snow, pulling a few boards strangely Sliding up, they sprinkled some grass dregs on the road, and then pulled the board and continued to move forward.

"What are you doing?" Evans stopped and asked from a distance.

"It's Mr. Evans!" The burly man at the front smiled. He took off his hat and saluted, and then said proudly, "I'm following Mr. Lance Xiao's instructions and leading the patrol team to maintain the traffic road!"

Evans has been frustrated recently when trying to figure out what the Duke meant, but during this day and night on the road, Evans seemed to have realized something. When he heard about little Lance, he immediately asked curiously : "Patrol team? Is that all of you?"

"Yes, we won the job after a wrestling match!" The leading man continued to answer heartily, and everyone laughed, obviously quite proud of it.

"So the new clothes you are wearing..." Evans knew that the Duke was listening, otherwise the car would not have stopped quietly, and he continued to ask.

"That's right, these are our work clothes. It's not just us. In the village, everyone who has a job has got new clothes!" The leading uncle smiled heartily, and then said seriously, "Of course, all of these must be Thank you Duke for your kindness... If it wasn't for the Duke's order, we would not have received such good care... Thank you kind Duke, may he be in good health."

This group of stout men in the countryside looked completely new at the moment. In Evans' memory, these people had always been gray, full of numbness and pain. They always ate black bread with a lot of sawdust, which was nourishing. Bad and quiet, the clothes on their bodies are always ragged... What's more, they never go out in winter because of the cold.

But now, they have a set of weird clothes that look very warm. Although they are still made of solid linen, they look brown, but they are thick and look very warm. There are even some beads of sweat on the foreheads of this group of people. , and the biggest change is that these people seem to be full, their complexions are rosy, and although they still don't look too strong, they are healthy and strong, as if their bodies have inexhaustible strength.

This change actually took place in more than two months, which is different from the letter. Seeing such a change with her own eyes, Evans herself was deeply shocked. He waved goodbye to these villagers, and then drove all the way back. , Edward looked out from the carriage, only to find that his village seemed to have quietly changed.

The fields were covered with heavy snow, but the village was full of fireworks. The village, which was always dead in winter in previous years, was actually walking around at this moment. The carriage passed by from a distance, and the laughter of the children could be heard.

This is quite different from the situation when he was leaving. Edward entered the castle and came straight over when he heard that Tang Feiliu was in the room. He couldn't wait to see this kid who was always full of strange ideas in his head. The most important thing was to ask : "Will this kid spend all his salary in order to help others because he is too soft-hearted?"

Edward felt that he had an obligation to inquire about it. After all, he already knew all about little Lance—he was so weak and soft-hearted, and it was very easy for him to give away all his property because of other people's complaints. Edward only needed to think that it was because of his Leaving, and the injured little Lance was deceived, and felt his heart was about to be pulled.

And Tang Feiliu himself didn't realize Edward's thoughts at all, so when Edward asked "What did you do in the village?" with a ferocious face, Tang Feiliu's first reaction was to quickly explain: "...Your Excellency, don't be angry , I really made my own claim..."

"No." Only then did Edward realize that his expression and tone seemed to have frightened Tang Feiliu. He looked at Tang Feiliu, and after a while he let himself relax a little bit. Looking at the child, he said softly, "I'm so surprised." , obviously you let everyone have a good life... It's just that this is not your responsibility, you can't affect your own life because of this, little Lance."

Tang Feiliu looked at Edward seriously, and seeing Edward's concern, he finally confirmed that Edward was not angry, and immediately relaxed, Tang Feiliu smiled shyly, and said, "Actually, I didn't spend any money... Well, I did put some money in now, but Mr. Allen is so good, he introduced me to a little business so I can hire people to help me with some work...”

Tang Feiliu seriously explained what he had done recently. At first, he just did some help. However, with Alan's encouragement, he took out the money he had saved so far, and together with Alan, he received a sum of money from York City. The work of the factory - they brought in the fabric and raw materials, and then let the women in the village rush to make clothes. This is not a big business, and Tang Feiliu can earn a dozen pounds at most in one winter, but this It's not the same for the people in the village, which means that they will be able to eat well in winter and earn commissions.

And those patrol teams are specially hired by Tang Feiliu for the transportation of materials and ready-made clothes. This is also for everyone's safety. After all, it is said that sometimes in winter, too hungry beasts will come down the mountain, and sometimes even hurt people.

In short, all of these are basically mutually beneficial, but at the end of Tang Feiliu's speech, he thought of one thing, and he said softly: "...It's just that Mr. Allen said that slaves cannot be allowed to earn commissions, I can only let them do it for me. Something else, and I'll give them something to reward - like bread or some bacon."

"You did a very good job, little Lance." Edward listened to his "Mr. Allen" and held Tang Feiliu's shoulders with both hands. He looked at Tang Feiliu and changed the topic, "...the person behind you What is it?"

"Ah?!" Only then did Tang Feiliu realize that the thing he was trying to block had been discovered—it was a box nailed to wood, filled with soil, and Tang Feiliu sprinkled a few cabbage seeds...Take care of it carefully, at this moment Although not very strong, it has grown verdant.

Edward looked at those vegetables, then at Tang Feiliu, and said in astonishment, "Why are there vegetables here?"

"...Because I want to eat," Tang Feiliu said pitifully, "Well... there are no vegetables here in winter, I really can't do it, and the temperature in the castle just so happens..."

"You mean, you know how to plant in winter?" Edward's eyes straightened, and he said, "My God, little Lance, you probably don't know what that means."

"What does it mean? You don't like to eat green vegetables, and I can't make a fortune by planting out of season." Tang Feiliu whispered in a low voice.

It can be said that he hates this empire's disdain for green vegetables.

And Edward said: "...no, no, fruit...expensive fruit...or expensive flowers...you know how happy every lady would be at a winter ball if it could be decorated with flowers that only bloom in summer ?"

Tang Feiliu's eyes lit up immediately: "Master Duke, do you want to do flower business?"

"Of course, what is needed to build a city is not small money." Duke Edward looked at the excited Tang Feiliu and smiled slightly. Tang Feiliu cheered, jumped on the spot, and said loudly, "Great, I want to let the entire Duke's The castle is all surrounded by flowers! But now we can only grow them indoors... Would you like to?"

Edward nodded, and then caught the cheering Tang Feiliu. He stroked Tang Feiliu's soft half-length hair, and said softly, "Come on, you will be busy next time, my administrator."

"Of course, I will do my best!" Tang Feiliu said seriously.

Therefore, in this winter, the servants of the entire castle could not do anything about it. They were ordered to start planting in the entire castle—so even the main building was filled with various soil-packed simple planting tools.

His Excellency the Duke's move was actually a great disgrace to the nobility, so the ball was naturally cancelled, and the number of visitors was of course as small as possible. When Mr. Allen came to look for Tang Feiliu, he was politely greeted by Evans. Refused: "Mr. Lance is busy managing the Duke's new property, so he temporarily refuses all meetings."

The winter in York was originally long and boring, and it was even cold and snowy for half a year. This situation spread throughout the entire empire and some surrounding countries.And this year, when the gate of Black Swan Castle was opened, the precious golden flowers were carefully taken care of in pots, and the carriages were wrapped in soft quilts, and the flowers that were placed on coal stoves to maintain the temperature were taken in pots. Go out of the castle, and then transit in York City, radiating to the whole country.

Ladies and gentlemen of the great aristocrats are shining brightly this year, and decorating fresh flowers on their hair has become a new fashion—if you don’t have the money to put a few gorgeous flowers in your hair, it means you can’t keep up with the fashion , or you already have an economic crisis.

Decorating flowers in one's bedroom and at balls has become a symbol of wealth.

So throughout the winter, the gold flowed continuously to Black Swan Castle, and even the astonishing loss rate on the conversion route made the Duke earn a lot of money, and his net worth doubled again.

And Tang Feiliu, who grew flowers happily every day, stayed in the castle all winter and never went out again.

So when spring returned to the earth, when he stretched himself to the balcony and put on a light spring dress, he suddenly realized——he seemed to have been at home for three or four months by accident!

And there is no mobile phone in this era, that is to say, he has not contacted his new friend Allen for three or four months!

Looking at the thawed earth outside, Tang Feiliu suddenly decided to go out.When he put on his clothes and hat, he went downstairs and saw that Edward was not in his office, but in the hall, talking to the people next to him. Tang Feiliu appeared, and Edward found out. Beckoning, Tang Feiliu ran over, seeing Evans' excited expression, Edward said, "Go, come with me to see your achievements."

When Tang Feiliu was at a loss, Evans said excitedly: "Those wheat seedlings, you have to go and have a look, they are simply too wonderful!"

Tang Feiliu was also excited immediately!This was a major event, so Tang Feiliu forgot everything. He sat in the carriage excitedly and bumped for a while before arriving at the planting field for this year's experiment.

Then Tang Feiliu was at a loss - he couldn't see any difference between these wheat seedlings that were not much different from the grass!

Although Tang Feiliu actually loves planting flowers and plants, and once raised strawberries on the balcony, as a modern person, the small bag of fertilizer he bought on Taobao is enough to make all the saplings and flower seedlings grow very strong. In Tang Feiliu's opinion , this is just an ordinary healthy plant!

But other people didn't think so, everyone exclaimed: "My god! This, this is simply a miracle created by the gods!"

"That's not true, it's science!" Tang Feiliu glanced at the silent Duke beside him, and decided to kill these people's superstitious thoughts in their cradles—belief is not a good thing in this age, the belief in this age is brutal and bloody, and the temple's The pope can even stir up the killings of several countries at will - besides, as a gay who is killed every year in the temple, Tang Feiliu naturally doesn't like such a terrible religion. He explained seriously, "It's because we fertilize seriously, the wheat seedlings get It is as if we are full of food, so it is the same that everyone can spend this winter in a healthy way, and it has nothing to do with God."

Only then did everyone remember where they were, and looked at Edward in horror. As the son of a devil, Edward's personality was not so violent. He looked at Tang Feiliu, but was happy that little Lance spoke for him so seriously. He held Tang Feiliu's hand and said, "Yes, science is priceless."

Evans coughed lightly and took a step forward to interrupt the delicate atmosphere. He bowed and said, "Mr. Lance, everyone is regretting that they didn't participate in fertilization before winter came... and there is no plan to compost..."

"Oh oh oh! It's okay, it's okay," Tang Feiliu suddenly came back to his senses. He blinked and didn't dare to look at Edward, and then turned his head to seriously educate Evans and the others about composting methods and spring top dressing.

Everyone listened very earnestly. Edward was watching with a cane. Spring returned to the earth, and the branches of the entire Black Swan Castle were sprouting. He was considered strong, but his complexion looked okay. Everyone looked at Lance with longing and admiration in their eyes.

He was obviously by his side, but this blond boy stood in the sun and was admired by everyone, like a god spreading the holy voice, and he was right beside him, with black hair and black eyes, looking at this holy son with sinful thoughts, as if he was glorious The child, endured in every possible way, wishing to contaminate him with his tentacles...

"My lord duke! My lord duke?" When Tang Feiliu turned his head, he saw Edward staring at him with a very scary look. Tang Feiliu was a little frightened. He touched Edward and saw that Edward had recovered. He breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Master Duke, we just talked about the rainy spring, so why don't we build the entire irrigation and drainage channel?!"

Seeing Edward nodding, Tang Feiliu cheered happily.

I just always felt that Duke Edward was a bit weird, Tang Feiliu thought... did he think too much?But Edward's eyes really look like the eyes of some carnivore wanting to eat, it's because of hunger... No, it's hunger/thirst? !

Tang Feiliu thought... the duke who wants to marry the duchess should not be gay, right?

He kept persuading himself in his heart, but he didn't notice it if he didn't pay attention. Once he noticed, Tang Feiliu always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with every movement.

So on the way back, Tang Feiliu desperately wanted to test the big boss.
