Chapter 105: I Want the Ill ck Nightshade


    ck nightshade was said to be a close rtive of eggnt, it was a nt that bore small, ck berries. The fruit was delicious. When he was little, Liszt liked to eat this fruit very much. There were a lot of wild ck shades growing in the fields where he lived at the time.


    It was unknown whether the ck nightshade in Madam Penlope''s flowerpot was the same type that he was familiar with.


    But when he heard that the nt was ill, he immediately, as per his habit, stepped forward, released Magic Eyes, and looked at the dying ck nightshade. When his gaze was sweeping through the nt, he seemed to perceive a faint flow of magic power sh past and quickly disappear.


    That was quite the surprise.


    The magic power meant that the ck nightshade was unusual.


    Is it going to conceive a sprite worm? Liszt was secretly excited, yet on the surface, he looked calm and collected. He kept looking at the ck nightshade.


    This dying ck nightshade had yellow leaves, ck spots on its rhizome, and its several flower buds appeared to be on the verge of withering.


    However, under the gaze of Magic Eyes, he quickly discovered the flow of magic power again. It was very week and intermittently visible. If one was not observing carefully, one would miss the traces of magic power.


    He came to a conclusion: It is unlikely to be a magic ingredient. It is very likely that the ck nightshade is going to conceive a sprite worm.


    Poor ck nightshade, it has contracted some unknown illness. It has already been a week and yet, I still haven''t managed to nurse it back to health. Watching it wilt more and more with each day reminds me of myself getting older. This is really ufortable. Madam Penlope continued to talk long-windedly as she watered the ck nightshade.


    Grandmother, you are quite healthy and don''t look old at all. Liszt said with feigned gentleness, Since looking at this ck nightshade gives you grief, then give it to me, let me take care of it instead of you. Perhaps the climate in the Flower Town will be beneficial to its recovery. If not, then I''ll send you a new one.


    It fills me with joy to see you so considerate, Liszt. Take good care of it.


    Certainly.


    Thus with ease, the flowerpot with the ck nightshade suspected of conceiving a sprite worm fell into Liszt''s possession. In his anxiety to settle down the ck nightshade, Liszt quickly bade his grandmother goodbye, joined his retainer knights, and headed back to the Flower Town.


    They arrived at the Flower Town by sunset.


    Red sky in the morning, shepherds take warning. Red sky at night, shepherds delight.


    Without even taking a moment to rest, Liszt immediately gave Gort an order: Teacher Gort, I want all serfs mobilized. They are to search for ck nightshades, dig them up,and bring them back to the horse field. Bear in mind, it''s best to dig up the roots along with the soil. The roots ofck nightshades must not be damaged.


    Before the sky turned dark, cl.u.s.ters of several wild ck nightshades were quickly found near the horse field.


    The ill ck nightshade was removed from the flowerpot and then nted next to a cl.u.s.ter of wild ck nightshades. Next, people were ordered to apply manure and water next to the roots of the ck nightshade. Lastly, other wild ck nightshades were dug up and then nted in the surroundings of the ill ck nightshade, forming a small field of ck nightshades.


    Sir, these were all the ck nightshades that could be found before the sky turned dark. Now we can only wait until tomorrow for the serfs to resume their search.


    Alright.


    Looking at the field of ck nightshades undermp light, Gort inquired: What is the use of these ck nightshades?


    Although many people knew that the berries of ck nightshades were edible, yet the fruit was to small and the yield was too little. They didn''t had much development value. Therefore, no one cultivated them. They usually grew on their own in fields. Generally, only children liked to look for the berries of ck nightshades.


    There might be some use, but it is still too early to tell. However, no matter what, any ck nightshade that is found tomorrow is to be transnted here.


    As you wish.


    After returning to the castle and while waiting for dinner, Liszt leaned against a chair in the living room, opened a coconut, and merrily drank the coconut milk inside as he rxed. After today''s time spent on horseback, and despite Earth Knights having very strong physical const.i.tutions, he still felt a bit fatigued. However, he was in a very good mood, even a bit excited.


    With his worries regarding the seafood market settled, selling seafood on the Coral Ind alone could support hisvish aristocratic lifestyle.


    With the sale channel regarding the me Mushrooms established, he only had to wait for the serfs to solve the issue with the cultivation method. The ck Tulips, on the other hand, were still one month away from harvesting season.


    With the two hundred and eighty gold coins obtained from the sale of the two ck pearls, the castle''s tight capital situation was nicely solved. He intended to buy a few more horses and horse drawn carriages to expand his caravan. As soon as possible, he was going to strive for the seafood trade to reach a scale where it would epa.s.s each city and a magnitude of over three gold coins a day in sales.


    Naturally, these were already set. What really excited him was the ck nightshade sprite worm.


    Apart from the four sprite worms and then another sprite worm, which the count had respectively given Liszt as a present upon his enfeoffment and a reward for discovering the ck Tulip, Liszt still had the peanut sprite worm, tomato sprite worm, and fragrant coconut sprite worm, which he discovered through smoke missions.


    However, only the ck nightshade sprite worm, which he personally discovered, gave him a great sense of aplishment.


    It turned out that even if he didn''t rely on the smoke missions, he could still get his own opportunities. However, it seemed like it would be quite difficult for him to discover the secret behind the ck nightshade without Magic Eyes, and Magic Eyes was a consequence of a smoke mission.


    In the final a.n.a.lysis, it still seemed to be thanks to the smoke missions.


    In any case, this is a good sign Perhapster, when I have nothing to do, I can release Magical Eyes to search for sprite worms that might be hidden in nts!


    Originally, he had been under the impression that sprite worms were very rare. After plowing and weeding the Coral Ind for twenty years, the Tulip Family only managed to acquire over one hundred sprite worms. The probability of acquisition was very low.


    But in the Flower Town, in this small ce, three sprite worms were discovered in just six months.And after he made a trip outside, he returned with a ck nightshade sprite worm.


    This could no longer be described as good luck.


    In fact, it seems like the probability of sprite worm conception was not low. However, due to restrictions in environment, therge majority of sprite worms seem to be miscarried''.


    Without the smoke missions.


    The peanut sprite worm would have long since died. The helpless serfs simply could not provide the peanut sprite worm with the necessary nutrition.


    The tomato sprite worm might be conceived. However, Jon Shoulderpole might have plucked thergest tomato and eaten the yet to be born sprite worm.


    The fragrant coconut sprite worm might have to embrace death. It was located too high up on the tree and there was still the threat from the fruit stealing monkeys.


    Without Magic Eyes to discover its traces, even the ck nightshade sprite worm would be destined to die, to never be born.


    Now that I have the smoke missions and Magic Eyes, there is bound to be a steady stream of sprite worms for me to discover. Getting rich is inevitable!


    After dinner, Liszt summoned the three managers of the caravan to brief them about the seafood trade.


    The Coral City, the Whitebirch City, the Northvalley City, the Elmwood City, the Snakefang City, and the Gravel City, apart from the Gravel City, which was too far away to do trade, trade routs had been established with the other five cities of the Coral Ind.


    The Flower Town was at the northeasternmost end of the ind and the Gravel City was at the southwesternmost end of the ind, they were separated by over one hundred kilometers.


    Tomorrow, the Tulip Castle will issue a seafood sale decree, giving us the exclusive sale rights. With his hands behind his back, Liszt looked at the night scene outside the window.


    There were still only a few sources of light in the Flower Town at night. Therefore, the stars were particrly bright and shiny.


    A faint silver band could be seen spanning across the sky, which seemed to indicate that this strange world was also part of the Milky Way.


    He continued to say: The seafood market is solely ours, so make good use of it. I want you to set up a fishing team in the vicinity of the Coral City to catch seafood on the beaches in the vicinity and then sell the seafood in the Coral City.
