Buck's Calendar, January 404.

Cast Iron City.

A rare snow fell today.

As the southernmost city of the Buck Kingdom, here and the northernmost Red Leaf City of the Buck Kingdom formed two distinct extremes.

First of all, in terms of climate, it is much, much warmer here, and it is more suitable for survival. There is no such thing as freezing to death here. In the past, there was no snow in Cast Iron City in winter. This year is an exception, although the snow fell very perfunctorily.

Then there is the fact that the people here are exceptionally good at fighting, from old women in their sixties to children in their teens, as long as they pick up weapons, they are qualified fighters! After all, Cast Iron City is located on the border of the Kingdom of Buck, and there are constant frictions every day. If you remain strong, you may never come back when you go out!

The nearest cast iron city is very lively.

This excitement has been going on for half a year.

"Hurry up! Send all the arrows!"

"Have the 3,000 sets of armor requested by the Grand Duke of Oran been built yet?"

"I've run out of iron ore? Why don't people dig it soon, we don't have any shortage of iron ore!"

...

Cast Iron City, City Lord's Mansion.

This is the tallest building in Cast Iron City, and it can easily overlook the entire Cast Iron City.

Unlike the buildings in other places, the entire city lord's mansion is almost all made of iron. There are still many houses made of iron, and even the city walls are mixed with iron filings. This is also the origin of the name Cast Iron City.

The defense of this city can be said to be one of the best in the Buck Kingdom.

In the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, a burly man in thick armor was looking down at a piece of parchment.

The few knights next to him stood erect beside the strong man without looking at him.

After a long time, the strong man raised his head.

A hairy, unkempt face was exposed, and his face looked very kind, but the scar on his face from the corner of his left eye to the bridge of his nose made his kindness much more awe-inspiring.

Although it was just a scar, it could be seen the thrill of the time. After all, as long as he was a little bit off, his left eye would definitely be gone, regardless of his life.

And this person is the lord of Cast Iron City,

The Grand Duke of the Kingdom of Baker - Buck Oran.

One of the few grand dukes with real power in the Kingdom of Buck!

"Today's grand occasion is thanks to your great assistance!"

The Grand Duke of Oran put down the scroll in his hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but because of the scar on his face, this smile was a little ferocious.

"The Grand Duke's leadership is good, we dare not bow without authorization!"

Many knights hurriedly saluted.

"Okay, today is a day worth celebrating, so don't be so polite!"

Grand Duke Oran waved his hand and said again.

"It's rare for the Gamma Kingdom to propose a peace, and they even gave away 10,000 gold coins. Haha, pass on the order that everyone will have an extra meal today!"

"The Lord is benevolent and righteous!"

The knights hurriedly spoke.

"By the way, how are our weapons and equipment prepared?"

Grand Duke Oran asked suddenly.

"Reporting to the Grand Duke, the weapons and equipment are well prepared, and we can fight a tough battle! It's just..."

Garden Knight hesitated, not knowing whether to say it or not.

"Just what, as the strongest knight under me, if you have any questions, just ask!"

Grand Duke Oran said with a smile.

"It's just that the Grand Duke, the Gamma Kingdom in the south has already been feared by us, so he probably won't dare to offend the border of the Buck Kingdom again. We have prepared so many weapons, are we really going to fight there? Excuse me, this...is not A good choice!"

Garden Knight could only bite the bullet and speak.

They were able to keep the borders of the Kingdom of Bak from being violated. In addition to the invincibility of the Grand Duke of Oran and the fearlessness of the soldiers, the most important point was that they occupied a favorable position.

Whether it is the cracked stone pass or the watchman's fortress, the two must-pass roads are armed to the teeth. As long as the Gamma Kingdom does not overwhelm the border with troops, it is impossible to survive!

But the Gamma Kingdom has a more powerful enemy—the Luoyan Kingdom!

They can't use their main forces to deal with the small country of Buck Kingdom, otherwise Luoyan Kingdom will find an opportunity to take advantage of it, and the situation of Jiama Kingdom will be very bad.

Therefore, in the current situation, it is the best choice for the Grand Duke of Oran, the Cast Iron City, and even the Kingdom of Bak to hold on.

Although every invasion of the Gamma Kingdom has been repulsed, even painful, but the Buck Kingdom is the weak side after all, and it is too risky to take the initiative to attack!

It is best to wait until the Kingdom of Jiama and the Kingdom of Luoyan really fight, so that they, the Kingdom of Buck, can take advantage of it.

The Garden Knight didn't think that the brave and resourceful Grand Duke of Oran couldn't see this. He didn't understand what the Grand Duke of Oran was thinking.

The Grand Duke of Oran turned around, first looked at the knight he was most satisfied with, then looked up at the north, and said softly:

"It's almost time, it's time to call!"

...

At the same time, the royal family and nobles in the royal capital are still immersed in the carnival of the holiday.

There is no such festival as the Spring Festival in the foreign world - this is for the common people.

For the nobles, as long as they have gold coins in their hands, they can celebrate the festival whenever they want, and the whole year can be a holiday.

In the palace, Princess Anne and Princess Anna are playing chess.

"Stop playing, stop playing!"

Seeing another loss, Annie scrambled the chess pieces with a wave of her hand.

Facing Annie's cheating, Anna didn't care.

She smiled and said:

"Recently, I see that you have been absent-minded. You can lose your mind when playing chess. What are you thinking?"

"I miss him... no, no, I don't think about anything!"

Annie shook her head quickly.

"Him? Guess, you're not thinking of Marquis Zhang Feng, are you?"

Anna narrowed her eyes and asked.

"Impossible, what do I want him to do! I, I want...snacks, yes, our snacks are finished! I still want to eat!"

When it came to snacks, both Annie and Anna swallowed subconsciously.

Annie had already finished eating some of the snacks that Annie bought from Red Leaf City, and some of the snacks that Zhang Feng sold in Buck City were also finished.

In fact, for Annie and Anna, these snacks are delicious, but they did not say that they are so delicious that they must be eaten. After all, they are made by the workers in the Red Leaf City workshop, and there is still a big difference between Zhang Feng and the ones that Zhang Feng bought from Hyundai. gap.

When I ate it, I didn't feel much. After I finished eating, I suddenly felt that I should keep some. It is very likely that I will never eat it again in this life!

"Sister, tell me, why don't we go to Hongye City in spring?"

Annie looked at Anna expectantly and asked.

"Go to Hongye City? Seems like a good idea!"

Then before Anne could smile, she said again:

"But I will go by myself, don't think about it!"

"why!"

"Why do you say, the last time you sneaked out, you really thought that if the king and the queen didn't punish you, you would be fine?"

"I...then sister, can you bring me something, besides snacks, I also want the latest clothes..."

Seeing that Annie started to break her fingers, Anna rubbed her hair angrily.

"It's alright, alright, I'm not sure if I'll go or not, maybe I won't, after all, there are a lot of things going on here, besides, as a princess, how can I run around!"

At the end, Anna also sighed.

"By the way, do you know what my father has been doing all this time? Why haven't I seen him?"

Anna asked strangely.

"I don't know, I haven't seen my father for several days..."

Annie shook her head. She was also very puzzled. Except for one time at breakfast, she didn't see her father all day long.

"But... last time, I really wanted to hear that my father asked someone to study that steam car? Did he go there too?"

"Forget it, let's not talk about the father, you know the mother..."

Before Anna could speak, she was interrupted by Annie.

"IDK!"

"..."

Anne felt a little wronged and said:

"Last time, I was scolded by the queen mother because I told you about the queen mother. The queen mother said that now you two are competitors, even if it is a mother-daughter relationship, they are also competitors. She won't let me talk about the clothing store. reveal to you..."

"A bag of cookies!"

While talking, Anna took out a bag of biscuits produced by Hongye City from her arms.

"No matter what you say, I won't—huh? Why do you still have it, sister? Have you finished eating without telling me?"

"Just say you want it or not!"

"Think~"

"Then, I ask, you tell!"

"..."

...

"Ah Choo!"

The Queen was checking clothes in a clothing store when she sneezed.

Seeing this, the maid next to her hurriedly handed the robe to the queen.

Touching the soft robe in her hand, the queen couldn't help thinking of a person in her mind, and sighed helplessly in her heart.

...

Red leaf calendar, March of 1 year.

Hongye City, which has been silent for several months, is like a sleeping lion, and now it is finally slowly waking up!

In human terms, although the weather in Hongye City is still a little cold, it is not as exaggerated as tens of degrees below zero. Zhang Feng measured it once before, and it hovered between zero and ten degrees below zero, and the sun came out. For the people of Red Leaf City, this is already a very good weather, so, with the joy of the people, the various jobs in the city finally started to resume work!

Several steam engines made clanking sounds, and thick white steam floated over Hongye City.

In the city, the textile factory started, the processing factory started, the wine factory started...

Outside the city, there are fish-hunters digging ice to catch fish, road builders laying stones to build roads, and wolf cavalry patrolling...

The whole Hongye City is full of vitality.

Standing on the top floor of the City Lord's Mansion, Zhang Feng looked at the vibrant Hongye City with a satisfied smile.

Although they rested for a long time, the people of Hongye City did not have any resistance to going to work. On the contrary, they were all excited. After all, not working is comfortable, but there is no gold coin to earn!

Only labor can make a fortune!

This is the famous words of the city lord!

"My lord, all industries in Red Leaf City have officially started work today, and there have been no surprises."

Erica reported to Zhang Feng with the information.

"Good job!"

Zhang Feng patted Erica on the shoulder with satisfaction, and he continued:

"Are they all packed?"

"Mrs. Caroline and the others have packed up."

"Then let's go."

"Yes."

When they came to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Caroline and the others were waiting for Zhang Feng with big bags. Besides them, there were also a group of orcs with various construction tools and a huge steam engine.

"Master Zhang Feng!"

"Zhang Feng!"

"Master~"

"..."

"Let's go, I'll leave it to them here."

Zhang Feng greeted, and a steam car about the size of a minibus appeared, and Zhang Feng and others got on the car.

The castle in Red Leaf City may be very good to others, but to Zhang Feng, it must be a bit of a surprise. The weather is good today, and it is the day for the castle to be refurbished, or to be rebuilt.

Thinking of being pushed to the place where he lived for so many days, Zhang Feng still felt a little different, but other people were not as sentimental as Zhang Feng.

Because the design drawings that Zhang Feng showed them are really great!

"Master Zhang Feng, can we really build such a castle?"

Although Zhang Feng had already obtained the guarantee, Caroline still couldn't believe it. Is there really such a luxurious castle in this world?

"Of course there is no problem. Don't worry. With the orcs and Tina around, it probably won't take long to complete the construction."

Zhang Feng said confidently.

In this castle transformation, the orcs and steam engines are naturally the main force, but Tina is also an indispensable part.

Because she has the ability to help the group recover their strength.

Zhang Feng was no stranger to Tina's new abilities from time to time.

Since Tina didn't say anything, Zhang Feng didn't ask too much, anyway, as long as he didn't deal with himself.

Of course, Tina's consumption of this ability is also very high, especially when the number of people involved is large, and she is still an orc. Her consumption is even greater, and she may lose her strength if she uses it once a day.

But for Zhang Feng, this is not a problem, because Zhang Feng can help Tina recover her strength by absorbing the energy in the mysterious crystal!

Although the recovery method was a bit embarrassing - as soon as she smelled that special smell, Tina couldn't control her body and sucked Zhang Feng's fingers like a child.

But the more times she did it, the more she got used to it. However, Zhang Feng was also very considerate. He never made fun of Tina in this regard, and he also avoided everyone. This was why Tina didn't resist.

After all, by absorbing these mysterious energies, she can not only supplement herself, but also improve her own strength.

The past few months have passed, and her strength has long been unparalleled.

"Hmph, I hope you're not bragging!"

The little red dragon Hill snorted coldly, no matter what Zhang Feng said, she liked to contradict Zhang Feng.

During this period of time, it can be said that Hill spent it painfully and happily.

The pain is that since she came to Hongye City, she hasn't eaten enough for a day!

Although Zhang Feng added a lot of food to her later, she was a dragon after all, and those were just enough to ensure that she would not starve to death.

From this point of view, she hated Zhang Feng to death.

The happiness is that in these short few months, she has seen new gadgets that she has never seen before, learned a lot of useful knowledge, and at the same time, ate all kinds of delicacies!

She just couldn't figure out what Zhang Feng's brain was made of, and the food he ate in a month could not be repeated once!

Hill felt that it was not in vain to have one kind of food, but he could eat in different ways every day, which was bearable!

Originally, she wanted to leave a long time ago. After all, she had eaten for so long and recovered some of her strength, but because the food in Hongye City was so good, she was a little reluctant to leave. This delay has dragged on until now.

For Zhang Feng, Hill also loves and hates. If she is not a good dragon who emphasizes the spirit of contract, she would want to take Zhang Feng away and become a chef for herself.

And Zhang Feng's feelings for Hill are actually quite good.

After all, after living under the same roof for a few months, you can see all kinds of character. Generally speaking, the little red dragon of Hill is like some little girl's arrogant and stubborn.

As for Hill's claim that she is over a hundred years old, Zhang Feng can't beat her to death. Zhang Feng thinks she is only ten years old at most with just this appearance and personality.

"Then just watch - or, let's make a bet, if I can really build such a luxurious castle, you promise me one condition, if I can't build it, I promise you one condition, what do you think? ?”

Zhang Feng stared at Hill with some malicious intentions and said.

Hill frowned, then gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay, bet! But the premise is that what you build must be the same as the picture you showed us!"

"No problem, give me a high five!"

Snapped!

Seeing the smile on Zhang Feng's mouth, Hill suddenly regretted it, but she slapped her palms, and she couldn't help but regret it.

"Zhang Feng, it's time for me to leave."

Daisy the Wingman looked at the happy group of people, grateful that she was like an outsider, she couldn't help but said.

She has her own mission, and she has been in Hongye City for so long, she can't waste any more time.

"No more two days?"

Zhang Feng asked tentatively.

"No, I've wasted so much time, I have to go and find my people!"

Daisy shook her head.

"Okay, I understand you, I don't have to keep you, but we are friends after all, if you go to the Sunset Mountains, it is very likely that we will never see each other again, as a friend, I still hate you of!"

Zhang Feng's words were already very euphemistic, and he almost said: You are going to die.

But Daisy also has her own persistence. From the time she grows wings and awakens the blood of the Winged Man, she has a mission that she has to fulfill.

"Friend? Thank you Zhang Feng, you are also my first friend!"

"Haha, it's a great honor! However, I still hope that you will stay for a few more days. The weather is still a bit cold, especially in the air. I believe you have already felt it. This is not a good time. In addition, I also want to give you Prepare some things for you to use on the road, there is no need to be so anxious."

Zhang Feng knew that Daisy had made up his mind to go, but this time period was really not good. After all, there was still a possibility of snow. When it snowed, Daisy would be alone in the dangerous Sunset Mountain Range, and it would be 99% cold.

"Okay, then I'll stay for a few more days..."

"That's right, I'll give you something to save your life later."

"thanks!"

"Thank you, we are all friends!"

"Well, friend!"

...

...

Red leaf calendar, the first ten days of April in 1 year.

Daisy left, Zhang Feng personally saw her off, and sent a lot of high-calorie food that was easy to carry, and life-saving tools.

Daisy was also a little bit reluctant, but finally left.

Zhang Feng can only look forward to seeing you again in the future.

The construction of Hongye Castle is already in half.

In general, it is almost the same, and there are only a few hundred million details that need to be improved.

"You really want to move in now?"

Looking at the eager eyes in front of him, Zhang Feng said with some headaches.

"certainly!"

Hu Er Niang spoke quickly, and Wolf Er Niang silently raised her little hand.

The cat-eared girl nodded her head frantically, and even Caroline looked impatient.

It has to be said that the attraction of New Castle to them is too great!

This matter actually starts with Tina.

The construction of the castle has always been in charge of Zhang Feng and Tina, and the others were very restrained and did not inquire.

But when Fox Erniang overheard the conversation between Tina and Zhang Feng, she was full of praise for the new castle, and even praised it to the sky, everyone knew the news.

Now everyone was not calm, especially when they heard Zhang Feng say that after some rooms had been built, they found Zhang Feng and said they wanted to move back.

"Originally, I wanted to give you a surprise after it was fully built, but since you are so urgent, then move in, and the rest will be built slowly."

"yeah!"

Hu Er Niang jumped on Zhang Feng all at once, and Zhang Feng almost stumbled.

"Okay, okay, let's go, let's go and see together!"

"it is good!"

Hongye Castle, or rather, it is more appropriate to call it a palace now.

The shape of this palace was designed by Zhang Feng in modern times, and spent a lot of money to invite well-known design masters to design.

Both aesthetics and practicality have been taken into account.

First of all, in terms of scale, it is more than ten times larger than the previous castle!

Let me mention here that the reason why Zhang Feng wanted to build such a big castle... no, the palace was because Hongye City had been expanded again! That's why there is enough room for Zhang Feng to toss about.

Then there is the shape, the shape of the entire palace is similar to the modern Palace of Versailles.

Instead of using the architectural style of the other world, it adopts a flat-roof design, and the palace as a whole is very correct.

This marble statue is carved on the outer wall of the palace, and each statue is lifelike, as if it came to life!

Adjectives such as luxury, grandeur, grace, luxury and so on can be arranged on it without exaggeration.

And this is just the external shape, not to mention the inside.

To put it simply, it is the best furniture, the most gorgeous decoration, and more than 500 rooms are all resplendent! Of course, among the more than 500 rooms, the details of more than 400 rooms have not been completed.

As for gardens and gardens, it goes without saying that this is standard equipment.

It's just that there are few types of trees now, Zhang Feng is going to go back and transplant some trees in the Black Stone Forest.

Although it is indeed a bit extravagant for such a small number of people to live in such a big palace, Zhang Feng is not a pedantic person. What is he making money for? To be cheesy, it's not for enjoyment!

Besides, after all, he is also the Marquis, how can he do without a castle to show his status!

Zhang Feng led the crowd into it. Ever since the enclosure was opened, everyone's amazement has never stopped.

Even the little red dragon, who claimed to have seen the world, was full of amazement, but because of face, she suppressed her admiration.

Zhang Feng laughed secretly in his heart when he saw it, he will definitely win this bet!

"Okay, you guys go and play casually, choose a room you like."

Zhang Feng said with a smile.

"Where is your room?"

The fox-eared lady suddenly asked a little shyly.

"Me? My room is over there, the one in the middle!"

Zhang Feng pointed to a place and said.

"Then I want the one next door on the left!"

"I want the one next door on the right!"

"I, no, I want the next door too!"

Seeing the crowd falling into a quarrel, Zhang Feng was a little dumbfounded. He winked at Caroline, and the two came to one side.

"There should be no problem with the new city wall, right?"

"Master Zhang Feng, don't worry, there is no problem! The city wall is taller and stronger than before, and the weapon system you invented is installed on it! The security is absolutely top-notch!"

"Very good, then the steam cars are almost the same, right?"

"Yes, thirty small steam cars and ten large steam cars have been manufactured and are ready to be put into use at any time!"

"Very well, since everything is ready and the weather is good, it's time for the Far North to meet its new owner!"

"Send me an order to notify all the nobles, city lords, gang leaders, etc. who have fiefs in the extreme north. I want to see their people within a month. If you don't come, you will bear the consequences!"
