Warm Dragon

I was busy until dark, and finally measured the approximate range of the magic potion farm.

After all, one elf bug can only affect 150 acres of magic potion, so the size of the magic potion farm is very small, only 500 acres.

In the short term, 500 acres is enough.

Russell doesn't think he can get any more new elf bugs through any channels, because elf bugs are too rare.

The reason why the elf bugs in the hands of the nobles are endless is that in the long-term cultivation of magic potions, there is a small probability of re-breeding new elf bugs from magic potions. Although there is a probability of breeding elf bugs in the wild, it is almost negligible.

In the life cycle of elf bugs of 10 to 20 years, it is very lucky to be able to cultivate another elf bug.

As for the evolution of elf bugs into mushroom birds or elves, the probability is also pitifully small.

Fortunately, elves can live for more than 50 years, and even 100 years is not uncommon. Such a long life is enough to cultivate many elf bugs for the family, and then one of the elf bugs will evolve luckily to continue to ensure the family's magic potion.

"I hope my mushroom worms and fairy worms will work hard to cultivate magic potions, and then cultivate the successor fairy worms as soon as possible..."

Butler Morris handed over the jade box containing the fairy worms.

Russell took it casually.

There were three lazy fat worms lying inside. These worms had gorgeous patterns on their bodies and a texture as smooth as jade. Not only did they not have the disgusting feeling of ordinary worms, but they gave people a cute and joyful feeling.

"Mushroom worm, little guy, you come to settle down first." Russell stretched out his hand, and the fluorescent mushroom worm with green patterns on its body followed his wishes and crawled onto his palm.

These fairy worms have been contracted, and they are in tune with Russell's mind and can be easily driven by Russell.

"Wow, what a magical and beautiful little creature." Charles exclaimed, "It's really unimaginable that it is relying on them to create magic potions and magic materials, adding infinite beauty to our lives."

Walking to the largest and thickest birch tree, Russell stretched out his hand and placed the fluorescent mushroom worm on the trunk.

It seemed to understand that its new home was completed.

The fluorescent mushroom worm crawled on the tree trunk for a few times, and then it couldn't wait to open its tiny mouth and spit out a small seed. If you don't observe carefully, you can't see the seed at all.

The seed fell on the birch trunk.

In an instant.

A cluster of green mushrooms grew at a speed visible to the naked eye. The tiny stems and flat caps looked very pretty. A cluster of fluorescent mushrooms has seven or eight fruiting bodies, distributed in a ring, and at first glance it looks like a big green flower.

This kind of mushroom can emit green light at night, like a ball of ghost fire.

Some people also call it an ant street lamp.

However, the Cordyceps is obviously larger than the ordinary magic potion fluorescent mushroom. The Cordyceps on the birch trunk is as big as a washbasin.

"Well done, little guy." Seeing that the Cordyceps was safe, Russell reached out to pick up the mushroom worm and put it back into the jade box-when the Cordyceps is attacked, it will condense into seeds, and then turn into magic power and return to the body of the mushroom worm.

Protecting mushroom worms is equivalent to protecting Cordyceps.

"Rudy." Russell turned around and looked at an old man among the serfs, "You have been growing fluorescent mushrooms for my father for a long time. Now, I will appoint you as the head of the magic potion village, responsible for managing the serfs and growing fluorescent mushrooms."

Rudy is a serf technician given to Russell by the baron. Although he is called a technician, he is actually a serf who can grow magic potions.

Hearing this, Rudy couldn't help but said, "Master, don't worry, Red Nose Rudy will definitely grow the best fluorescent mushrooms for you!"

After appointing the head of the magic potion village, Russell rushed to another measured farmland without stopping.

Wheat was planted in the farmland.

But this did not prevent Russell from collecting it back and officially replacing it with a rain-long flower magic potion field, and planting a rain-long flower Cordyceps with blue flowers like a bird in full bloom in the wheat field.

"Starting tomorrow, Old Hans, Rudy, you have to arrange for new serfs to join the Magic Potion Village, then harvest these wheats, and under the guidance of these technicians, sow rain flowers for me, and plant 150 acres of land."

These wheat seedlings that have not grown up yet will not be wasted. After harvesting, they can be used as silage to feed cattle and sheep.

The Black Snake Manor does not raise cattle and sheep. The previous alfalfa village is responsible for growing forage grass, which is transported to other manors with livestock after harvesting.

Now, there is no need to transport it out, and Russell plans to feed some cattle and sheep in the future.

For the time being, these alfalfas are just right for feeding war horses.

A moment later, in another farmland on the other side of the river, Russell put down the third dill cordyceps, officially completing the placement of the cordyceps.

At this time, it was completely dark.

Russell was not so black-hearted as to let Old Hans and other serfs go back to their own homes for dinner, but deliberately asked the kitchen of the manor's courtyard to make a lot of bread.

White bread made of fine wheat flour is obviously out of the question.

Butler Morris could only give each serf who came to work a piece of hard, rough and sour black bread made of wheat bran mixed with barley flour, bean flour and grass seeds.

"Praise the master, you are as generous as a dragon!" Old Hans grinned happily as he received a piece of black bread the size of a hollow brick.

Unlike the soft white bread, black bread is very firm. One piece is enough for at least one dinner for his family.

The serfs thanked him profusely and left the manor with their black bread.

Russell, Charles and Eric went to the restaurant on the second floor to enjoy a dinner with beer and barbecue.

As for his four knight followers, they are currently staying in the Potion Village, each looking after a Cordyceps plant. The Cordyceps that have just fallen are in urgent need of absorbing nutrients. Once attacked and eaten, the Cordyceps will be severely damaged and seriously affect the growth of the magic medicine.

"Maurice, give John and the others more barbecue." Russell ordered.

"As you wish, sir." Butler Morris took the order and quickly came to the kitchen to convey Russell's will.

"Oh, my God." Mrs. Moore, the cook in an apron and rolled-up sleeves, said sharply, "The master is so generous, with bread and barbecue... The serfs in the manor are so happy that it will take them several lifetimes to Meet such a master!"

As he said that, he shouted to Barbara, the kitchen maid who was washing the pots: "Silly girl, how many times do you want me to tell you, go check out the barbecue stove!"

"It's baking, it's not time yet, Mrs. Moore," Barbara replied.

"Oh my god, did you learn to talk back to me when I asked you to look at the oven?" Mrs. Moore pinched her waist in anger. "When you see the bags of flour turned into bread and distributed to those stinking serfs, you will It’s bad enough that you still want to make me angry!”

Barbara had no choice but to quickly wipe her hands and rush to the barbecue stove: "I'm watching, Mrs. Moore."

Mrs. Moore took two steps back and forth at the table, and then shouted: "Mrs. Brown, have you got the cheese back? I still have to make pudding for the master!"

"Come on, come on." Mrs. Brown trotted over.

"I'm sorry I have too many things to do." Mrs. Moore softened her tone slightly and put on a smile, "I can only tell you to do the work."

Mrs. Brown hurriedly said: "What are you talking about? Housekeeper Morris arranged for me to help in the kitchen. You can treat me as a kitchen maid and do whatever you want."

While stirring the cheese, Mrs. Moore said: "You and Mr. Brown used to stay alone in the manor house, and it must have been free and relaxing. Now that the master is here, the manor house is bustling, but you can't finish the work every day."

"Before, I had to clean the whole courtyard, and I didn't dare to be lazy for a moment. Now there are more people, and there are more people to talk to. It's better than before." Mrs. Brown took over Barbara's work, put on her gloves, and prepared to go to the pool Wash the pot inside.

Before touching the water, he put his hands on his chin again and said a quick prayer: "Praise the Lord!"
