"ck Horse Ind has be my territory, and I can openly carry out development and construction, while Fresh Flower Town is only rentednd... Although the Tulip Family will not reim it, industries that need to be transferred should still be transferred, to align with future territorial nning," Liszt spoke from a strategic height.
"For now, only one new town is nned on ck Horse Ind, Harbor Town, which is designed as a port city and will be the central city of ck Horse Ind in the future; of course, if Fresh Flower Town can develop, I don''t mind turning it into a city of trade."
"If Fresh Flower Town only undertakes trade business, then there''s no need to overly develop the nting industry here," Goltai said, following Liszt''s tone.
Isaiah added, "Workshops that produce raw materials should also be relocated to ck Horse Ind, and livestock, cattle, and horses should be moved there as well."
Zambrotta then said, "Considering the agricultural nning of ck Horse Ind, Fresh Flower Town should still retain some nting and breeding for daily needs, and some basic foreign trade raw material production, keeping it in Fresh Flower Town can save on the cost of shipping." The former Noble, now ustomed to abstract concerns, had be much more practical.
"Then, you all must formte an industry transfer n for me as soon as possible; within three days, I need to see itpleted," Liszt set a deadline, "Additionally, I will appoint a batch of new officers to take posts in Harbor Town on ck Horse Ind... You may choose to stay or go to Harbor Town."
He then added, "The choice is yours, I will not insist."
Although he did not insist, any follower with a bit of sense naturally knew that taking a post in Harbor Town would lead to more important roles.
Therefore, without much hesitation, they were all willing to take up positions in Harbor Town on ck Horse Ind.
"Since that is the case, Consultant Goltai, you will leave your position as advisor to Fresh Flower Town and go to ck Horse Ind to serve as the advisor for Harbor Town; Finance Officer ir will be transferred to Harbor Town to serve as Administrative Officer; Isaiah will continue to serve in Fresh Flower Town and take on the responsibilities of an advisor; Zambrotta will also stay in Fresh Flower Town, but also take on the role of a Diplomat on ck Horse Ind..."
Landlords usually leave advisory positions to Noble followers.
Apart from Liszt in Fresh Flower Town, only Goltai was an Honored Knight, therefore, by his reassignment as the advisor for Harbor Town, no one could assume the advisory role for Fresh Flower Town.
Administrative Officer Isaiah, at most, could take on the advisory responsibilities but was not able to directly assume the role of an advisor.
However, with hard work, he would eventually be rewarded by Liszt with the title of Honored Knight, achieving a transformation frommoner to Noble—though it may take a very long time;pared to ennoblement through martial achievements, other achievements made ennoblement much more difficult.

In the evening, during his free time, Liszt intended to look at some Magic Books he hadn''t had the chance to examine yet, but Paris sought him out.
"Viscount, I have some issues and would like to ask for your help," she said.
"Please speak," Liszt was sitting by the apple table under the Apple Tree Cordyceps, swaying in his rocking chair, enjoying the evening breeze that dispersed the day''s heat.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
A clear ss of green tea rested on the table.
"I''ve failed at practicing Dou Qi and cannot resist the erosion of the Light Dragon Magic Power in my body, so following your suggestion, I began to learn Magic from Chris," Paris said, not without distress.
"I unexpectedly discovered I''m quite sessful in meditating on Magic, particrly the Light Attribute Magic Power which has a high affinity for me. But Chris only knows one Light System Magic, sh Magic, which I''ve already mastered, and there is nothing else to learn."
Your adventure continues at empire
"So you n to have me help you find some Light System Magic?"
"Yes, among the people I know, you are the only one, Viscount, who has the capability to help me," Paris said frankly.
Liszt got up, picked up his teacup, and took a sip of the now-cool tea, saying, "It is indeed very difficult to find Light System Magic, but rest assured, I will help you find some Light System Magic casting ns as soon as possible... Does this mean, you intend to change your path to be a Light System Mage?"
"I hope I can sessfully transition. I vaguely feel that once I''m able to control the Light Dragon Magic Power inside me with Magic, the erosion of my body by the Light Dragon Magic Power will be greatly reduced, and maybe I will be able to live a little longer."
"This is truly exciting news, Paris," Liszt said with a clenched fist and a sincere expression, "No matter what, I will help you transition into a Light System Mage, allow you to ovee the erosion of Light Dragon Magic Power, and have the freedom to enjoy life like a normal person."
"Thank you," she responded.
"Do we need to say thank you to each other?" Liszt smiled.
Paris met Liszt''s gaze, then a flush of red swiftly crept up her cheeks, and she awkwardly turned her head away, "Then I''ll leave everything in the hands of Viscount, I... have something else, I must take my leave."
The person had already walked away.
Liszt still reminisced about the charming turn of Paris''s head.
It was undeniable that this female ck Dragon Childe had a dynamic beauty that was pleasing to the eye. However, his feelings for Paris were limited to admiration, without any deliberate pursuit of more, respecting each other''s spiritual independence. Often like this, there would be a taste of close friendship.
It could perhaps be called a tonic rtionship.
As for how future feelings might evolve, he was unclear, with no real direction—indeed, other than the clear goal of Dragon Riding, he was quite muddled about what exactly he wanted for himself.
Especially in matters of the heart, just going with the flow.
He had been moved.
The confession from Asina Salmon left him in turmoil, nearly unable to contain himself; the passionate night with Duniko Hyacinth gave him the impulse to make a lifelongmitment; the warm kiss andte-night invitation from Rona Sally Golden Wheat made him waver between hesitation and regret.
The beauty and wlessness of Sea Sprite Ake made him harbor endless protective and possessive desires; and Paris''s carefree attitude and asional naivety often led to shared knowing smiles.
But none of this matched the head-over-heels love he imagined.
Not having met the "right person after looking in the eyes," nor experiencing a tumultuous or do-or-die love, sometimes Liszt would ask himself, "Besides myself, can I fall in love with another person?"
No answer.
He had a servant bring paper, pen, and envelope resin, unfolded the paper and wrote a letter that said, "Elkerson, contact your Magician friends, help me acquire Light System casting schemes, ten Gold Coins for a standard Light System Magic, forty Gold Coins for Light System Magic that only a Grand Magician can master."
Except for sh Magic and Invisibility Technique, Paris had already learned them.
After writing the letter, he melted the resin, poured it onto the envelope''s seal, and before it solidified, he pressed his newly carved stamp onto it with force.
The stamp bore the "Liszt" Serpent Script mark.
He called for Retainer Knight Zavier and handed him the envelope, "Go to Coral City and find Elkerson, give him this letter."
Zavier, skilled at ttery and now Liszt''s most trusted among the Retainer Knights, immediately replied with respect, "Yes, my lord!"
The Retainer Knight left.
Liszt reclined back into his rocking chair, gazing at the sunset sky, his eyebrows slightly raised, "Water System Mage Ake... Light System Mage Paris... Human Mage Chris... how many more Magicians can I collect?"
