"Sir, I was just about to report to you. The servant went up to check this morning and said that he smelled a very pleasant fragrance. It was richer and more delicious than perfume. It was the ambergris you asked me to dry!"
"Oh? Has the fragrance appeared? It seems to have dried up!" Nalant was overjoyed. Although dried fish and salt were profitable, he expected more from ambergris, because perfume is the real huge profit.
Although Nalant hasn't gotten any more ambergris in recent days, the whales on the beach are still there, and they are still chasing the flying fish around.
Narant knew that there must be a lot of ambergris discharged by whales in the sea, but it had not been pushed ashore by the waves for a while.
The two pieces of ambergris he got last time were enough for him to use for a while.
"Thomas, take those two pieces of ambergris to the mill and grind them immediately. Remember, this thing is very precious. Don't let any be lost!" The ambergris was dried, just in time to catch up with the convoy heading to Tulip City, Nalan I am especially prepared to try to see if I can really make a lot of money.
"Yes, sir!"
…
After lunch, Nalant gave instructions to Quik and asked him to lead the guards in training, while he called Vivian and walked into the inner fort.
"Lord, Sister Vivian!" When the two entered the inner castle, Shirley, a little loli, ran out of the kitchen. "Sir, what are you going to do?"
Because Shirley had come into contact with many aristocratic children at Rose Tavern, she did not have the deep-rooted fear of aristocrats that other serfs had. Of course, respect still existed.
"I'll need volunteers to help me try out the perfume later. Shirley, come with me!" Narant didn't mind Shirley's liveliness, but found this girl quite interesting and rare.
"Yes, Lord!" Shirley immediately showed joy, stepped forward, took Vivian's hand, and followed Nalant upstairs.
The main body of the Baron Castle has four floors.
The first floor is the restaurant and halls for various purposes.
The second floor is reserved for guest rooms and event space.
The third floor is Narant's study, bedroom and other private spaces. Only Narant and Thomas can go up and down freely here.
The fourth floor has various warehouses, which are used to store the lord's wealth and items, such as various gold and silver vessels or precious treasures. In addition, there is also a small vault, which can store gold and silver coins. .
Unfortunately, Narant did not have much wealth, and now the fourth floor was empty, so Narant asked Thomas to clear out a well-lit warehouse to use as a laboratory for his future small inventions.
Taking Vivian and Shirley to the laboratory, there were only a few empty wooden shelves and a long wooden table.
"Sir, there is nothing here! Where is the perfume?"
Shirley looked around like a curious baby, but she didn't see the perfume she was expecting.
Shirley had also seen perfume in Tulip City, and she was looking forward to the delicious perfume.
"Steward Thomas will deliver it soon!" Nalant replied with a smile.
"Hey, sir, there is someone over there!" Just after Nalant answered, Shirley said something shocking, pointing to the corner of the room and speaking.
"Is there someone?!" Nalant was stunned by Shirley's words. There was nothing in that corner except a wooden frame.
"Sir, there are people out there who say that Lord Lord and Sister Vivian are nasty monsters and want you to leave quickly!" Before Nalant could clear her thoughts, Shirley continued to speak with certainty, even her own eyes Chuuya was also filled with fear.
"I'll go, this castle isn't unclean!" Nalant felt his back hair grow when he heard this. With his eyesight as a knight, it was really just an empty wooden frame.
Clang!
The next moment, Nalant directly pulled out the long sword that never left his body and headed towards the corner.
"Shirley, where is the 'person' you mentioned?" Nalant knew that although Shirley was lively, she did not dare to play pranks on him, the lord.
"Sir, it seems to be coming from behind the wooden frame!" Shirley concentrated for a moment and answered in the affirmative.
Upon hearing this, Narant held the sword in one hand and carefully moved the wooden shelf away.
Squeak!
brush!
Just after Nalant moved the wooden shelf away, a small black shadow squeaked out from the corner!
Nalant's reaction was very quick, and the long sword immediately drew a sword flower in front of him. The small black shadow split into two parts when he raised the sword and dropped it.
"Ah! It turned out to be a mouse! Sir, how could I hear it! Am I a monster?" The next moment, Nalant felt a little relieved, but the girl Shirley turned pale with fear.
Because there are no animals in the castle, Shirley hasn't been out these days, so she doesn't know her abilities and talents.
At this moment, I realized that what I heard was actually the words of a mouse, and I was suddenly frightened.
"Shirley, don't be afraid, this is a talent given to you by the lord!" Vivian knew Shirley's current situation based on her own situation.
As for this talent being given by the lord?
Vivian felt that the God of Glory only favored nobles, and she and Shirley both received this magical talent after drinking the medicine given by the Lord, so she was more willing to believe that this was the power given to them by the Lord.
"Ah! The talent given to me by the lord?" Shirley opened her mouth in a daze after hearing Vivian's words.
"That's right, Shirley, do you still remember the bowl of soup that the adults gave you? It was that bowl of soup that gave us our talents. My talent is archery, and your talent may be being able to talk to small animals!" Weiwei An Nod in the affirmative.
"Lord, is what sister Vivian said true?" Only then did she remember the bowl of tea. It turned out that this was the reason why the lord gave it to her. At the same time, Shirley thought of Vivian's shooting skills and already believed it. Most of it.
"Well, it's like this. Shirley, your talent is to be able to communicate with small animals. Tomorrow I will take you out of the castle to meet other small animals!" Nalant did not expect that Vivian had the qualities to be a trustworthy person. But he didn't refute it. It would be great if they were willing to think so.
"Yeah! Thank you Lord, I can actually communicate with small animals!" Shirley immediately turned from surprise to joy. You must know that she used to like small animals the most. If she can talk to small animals in the future... Shirley has already I'm imagining myself walking down the road with a small animal.
"Lord, Shirley will be loyal to you for the rest of her life!" Finally, the little Loli knelt down and swore to Nalant in an extremely sincere tone.
