The milk produced by the dairy farm is a rare luxury in Flower Town. Originally, the milk from the dairy farm was used to produce milk powder. Once every three months, it was handed over to the Earl of Coral Island as a tax.
After Liszt came, every day milk would be sent to the castle.
A total of ten cows.
Among them, three calf cows under two years old have not yet started to produce milk; two old cows can no longer produce milk; one male cow can not produce milk; and only four adult female cows can produce some milk every day. I don't know if it's the breed of dairy cows, and they don't eat well enough, and the milk production is very low.
"Dahua is in the peak milk production period and can squeeze 20kg of fresh milk three times a day; Xiaohua can only squeeze 4kg a day in the evaporated milk period; Dahei is also in the evaporated milk period, 5kg a day; Rhubarb is currently in the Breastfeeding." The old man in charge, not too old, but already hunched over and looking very old.
Liszt approached a cow, which was very docile and slowly grazing.
"Do you want to keep raising cows that can't produce milk?"
"Zhuangzhuang needs to ensure that all the cows are pregnant, and they must be raised. Milk flowers, milk blacks, and milk yellows are still young, and they will not be able to conceive and produce milk next year. Lao Hua and Lao Hei are already old, and we have reported to the lord. You can come to kill the cows and get the meat." The old steward said respectfully.
Milk flower, milk black, and milk yellow are the names of underage cows.
Xiaohua and Xiaohei are the names of newly grown cows.
Dahua, Dahei, and Dahuang are the names of cows in their prime.
Presbyopia and Lao Hei are the names of old cows.
Zhuangzhuang is the name of a bull cow.
Liszt remembered that the housekeeper Carter had mentioned to him a while ago that there were two old cows on the dairy farm that could be killed for meat at any time. For cows that cannot produce milk, raising one more day is equivalent to wasting one more day of grain, and they will usually be slaughtered immediately—it’s very ruthless to say that cows produce milk for a lifetime, and they have to contribute their own meat when they are old.
For the time being, the castle did not hold a large banquet, and the meat brought there was still enough, so the two old cows continued to be raised on the dairy farm.
"Is there enough pasture on the farm now for the cows to eat?"
"Enough, Lord, we only have ten cows, but we have 150 acres of grassland."
"Old steward, how many acres of grass do you think is enough for ten cows to graze?"
"Lord Lord, a cow needs ten acres of grassland to feed, but we often take cows to graze in the wild outside, so only eight acres of grass is enough to feed."
"Eight acres of cows need eighty acres for ten heads. Then, Mr. Galtai, first weed out seventy acres of two-leaf grass and plant alfalfa."
"No problem, wrap it on me." Galtai patted his chest and assured.
On the census project, Liszt's resolute attitude gave Galtai a sense of crisis, and his work attitude was finally correct. He has already seen that Liszt is not the kind of aristocratic exaggerated and hedonistic, but an aristocrat who does things down-to-earth. If he wants to gain power, he has to change his style.

Feed the Dousen.
Check for peanut worms.
Two days passed in a flash, and the third day was a rainy day.
Spring is thick, summer has not yet come, rain is as expensive as oil, and agricultural production in each village is busy advancing. The seeds of alfalfa have been sown, and the fields of corn have been drawn from the field, ready to be planted. The Forest of Thorns is still in sight, and it is necessary to wait for Marcus to return and go to the Ridge of Thorns to find it.
Fourth day.
After lunch in the castle, the butler Carter hurried into the study: "Master, Mr. Marcus is back and is waiting for your summons outside the castle."

"Invite him in now."
"Lord Baron, Marcus greets you!" Marcus, who was in the dark, brought two intermediate-level fighting qi cheats that Liszt was looking forward to.
One is "Flame Wave" that Liszt is familiar with, and the other is "Fire Dragon Drill" obtained from Tulip Castle.
After accepting the two cheat books, Liszt turned to ask: "Mr. Marcus, I gave my letter to the earl and baron, how did they reply?"
"This is the reply from Lord Earl and Lord Baron, as well as ten nardas in exchange for selling the fur of the Bloody dog."
"Mr. Marcus, please take a seat. I'll read the letter first."
The first to open was the reply letter from the Earl of Coral Island. Since there are not many words on thick paper, the content of the letter is very small. Li William Tulip replied to Liszt, preparing to send someone to complete the assimilation of black tulips in the near future, and also to discuss how to sell black tulips.
And promised to buy a batch of scarce materials for Liszt as a deposit for the transaction.
The other was a reply from the Baron of Falcon Town. Li Weiwei replied to Liszt, congratulations to him for discovering a new variety of tulips. She would come with the Earl and exchange materials for the qualification of assimilation.
All are official, courteous replies.
Without much family affection, after the death of Liszt's mother, the first wife of the earl, the relationship between the three brothers and sisters who lacked maternal love gradually weakened. The count turned from hope to disappointment because of Liszt's appearance, and the relationship became even weaker.
"But it's okay. I can accept this kind of weak emotion better. You can't stand it, but I can't stand it." Liszt felt a little emotional after reading the letter.
Drop the letter.
Lisztwin said, "Mr. Marcus, is there anything new in this trip?"
"The coral island is calm as usual, and there is no war in the Grand Duchy, but there is one thing, I don't know if it is new, it is about the baron's mother family."
"My mother clan?"
Liszt almost forgot that his mother was also noble, and asked, "What happened to the Castle of Long Taro?"
"The owner of the Castle of Long Taro, the Marquis of Red Crab Island, has resigned from his position as the captain of the palace fleet and returned to Red Crab Island because of an illness. The Earl is preparing to send someone to visit, probably when the messenger comes to assimilate the black tulips, he will be with the baron. Let's discuss this matter, my lord."
"Maybe." Liszt searched the memory of his predecessor and recalled the Castle of Long Taro in his memory.
The Grand Duchy of Sapphire is an archipelagic country with many nobles enfeoffed on large and small islands. Among them, there is a large island, Red Crab Island, which is owned by the Long Taro family.
The surname of the taro family is derived from the taro elf they own.
The castle where he lives is the Castle of Long Taro, which is far bigger and more luxurious than the Tulip Castle. It is magnificent and stands high above the mountains.
Marquis Merlin has a son and two daughters, the eldest son Messilo, the second daughter Melinda, and the third daughter Melissa.
Melissa Long Taro is Liszt's mother.
When Li William Tulip was still a viscount, Marquis Merlin saw his extraordinaryness and married his three daughters, Melissa, to the Tulip family, and gave birth to three children, Levis, Li Weiwei and Liszt. So far, Liszt has been going to the Castle of Long Taro to celebrate his grandfather's birthday every year.
However, since William Li re-married the new countess, the relationship between the Long Taro family and the Tulip family gradually became estranged.
But no matter what, Marquis Merlin is Liszt's grandfather.
When my grandfather was ill, the younger generation should visit him.
