"Can this manager be trusted?"

After the manager said goodbye after reporting on the manor's situation, Aldington asked Baron Oreno.

"What?" Baron Aureno was unknown, so "Calry is the nephew of the previous butler of Butterfly Castle. Both parents are from their own estates, so there is no problem with loyalty."

Aldington was very young and had passed away as the previous housekeeper, and basically had no impression of this person.

He said carefully: "I remember not in any book, or someone who has heard of it, that the reason why river clams can produce pearls is because foreign objects such as sand particles, parasites and other foreign objects are invaded and stimulated, and they are constantly secreted to wrap the foreign objects, and then pearls are formed."

"Is this how the pearls formed?" Baron Aureno was surprised.

"Yes, this should be roughly the reason. Based on this reason, artificial cultivation of pearls can be tried." Aldington decided to plan a new industry for the family. "We can send people to capture pearl mussels, and then plant 'foreign objects' to make it grow into pearls."

Aldington is not sure whether the pearls were "planted" manually in this way, but the general principle should be like this.

Baron Aureno glanced at his son who was talking, and said without objection: "I will arrange for Carri to send someone to experiment with what you said about artificial planting. You are in the learning stage now, follow your mother and you to watch more, follow Viscount Doolique and learn more, and don't worry too much about chores."

It seems... the proposal of artificially breeding pearls has not won "respect".

Aldington replied with his eyebrows and eyes lowered, without expression or tone: "Yes, I understand."

"Go and have a break early."

"My father, please rest early, too."

Say goodbye and leave.

Let the servant boil water and take a shower.

Back in his bedroom, Aldington was still thinking. He found himself a little anxious and desperate to get rid of his identity as a "minor". But the age of sixteen is sixteen, and he will not be subverted by the awakening of blood and the identity of a future literary giant. He is still a child in the eyes of his parents.

"I lived in a daze for 30 years in my previous life and achieved nothing. I don't want to keep a low profile in this life. Morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics and labor must develop in an all-round way, rather than polishing it into this world, a typical aristocrat of this era... I have to live my own wonderful life!"

If he travels through time to become a baron, he will definitely make drastic moves on his fiefdom.

Unfortunately, he is just the heir of the Baron. His father, Baron Aureno, was in full swing in spring and autumn, and it is not necessarily a problem to live to the age of 120. According to the normal timeline, he has to bear the title of "Baron Heir" for up to seventy years. If Baron Aureno was determined and abdicated as soon as possible, he could still live with the Baron's addiction.

If he is unintentional to abdicate, he might directly let his grandson and even his great-grandson inherit the title of baron.

This is not impossible.

Mrs. Carly's father, Kaluke Green Leaf Mang, Earl of Amiens City, did not allow his son, that is, Mrs. Carly's brother, to inherit the title and passed it directly to the eldest grandson Kader. Therefore, Mrs. Carly's brother always held the title of viscount and died of illness.

Inheritance from generation to generation is an ordinary inheritance method among aristocratic families.

certainly.

The knights fight everywhere, and when they are old, their physical functions deteriorate and they cannot advance to a higher level, and their combat effectiveness will basically decline seriously. At that time, for the better development of the family, they usually choose to abdicate and give way to the virtuous, let their descendants take power, and continue to lead the family development.

"First gain a reputation in the bard's profession, spend these two years safely, and when you reach an age of eighteen, you may start your own independent career."

...

The Iris family has a pearl estate in Horseshoe Pearl City.

Around Little Versailles, there are three manors, namely the red wine manor that holds red wine, the wild boar manor that raises pigs, cattle and sheep, and the horse racing manor that raises horse racing. On the red wine manor, there is also a very small castle, named Butterfly Villa Castle.

Arriving at the Butterfly Villa Castle, a dance party was held in the small castle that night.

Some nobles, officials, priests, magicians, and artists from Little Versailles who are familiar with the Iris family were invited.

The Baron of the Empire is not very prominent in the Danube Province. The Little Versailles gathered in celebrities from a province, but the Iris family is a blood noble, so the upper class is very proud of their face. Even if there is no invitation to be sent widely, more than fifty celebrities still came to the castle of the villa.

Men and women in the dance floor dance to the music.

Baron Aureno and Otem whispered on the sofa: "What do you say to Lord Gong Xiang?" The person who asked was Baron Aureno.

"I personally sent invitations to Lord Gong Xiang. Lord Gong Xiang was very dedicated and also handled government affairs in the office. He asked me who were invited to the dance party. I answered several nobles and socialites, so he accepted the invitation and said he had no time to attend. When he had time, he would come to the castle in the villa as a guest."

"How do you feel, is he really busy or is he deliberately alienated?"

"It's both." Otem took a sip of Jin Rum and replied, "It's really busy during this period. The entire Danube province is in a drought. The crops sown in spring will be greatly reduced. Maybe the gorge and Macedonia will start war with each other and grab each other's supplies."

"The situation in the Golden Danube is unstable, which brings him a crisis and an opportunity." Baron Oreno thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow you will take Hector and the others around, and I will go to visit the Palace Prime Minister in person."

"Are you visiting me in private?"

"No, it's a formal visit."

"Um?"

"No need to worry about anything. In the golden Danube plain, the Iris family does not need to look at anyone's face." Baron Aureno patted his brother's shoulder, "Remember one thing, our Iris family has always been loyal to the king, which is an unshakable premise."

"I see."

"Okay, enjoy the dance and make Aldington famous by the way. His song "Facing the Sea, Spring Blooming" is brilliant and has delicate emotions. I believe it will be sought after by the celebrities of Little Versailles. You have to be optimistic and don't let those socialites scare him."

Otem shrugged: "I think socialites have to pass Hector's level first."

Aldington, who didn't know that he was teased by his father and uncle, was gently sucking his wine glass, and was stared at by a pair of sisters with hot eyes.

"We have attended several dances and salons held by the Iris family. This is the first time we have seen you, Baron Aldington." The sister of the sister, Lucia Bevaguli, stuck out her tongue and added a little to her lips as she spoke, which was very tempting.

"I've been at the Gray Iron Castle."

"Of course I know that you are the attendant of Viscount Dulik. Once you followed your father to visit the Gray Iron Castle. I saw you lifting a gun for Viscount Dulik. The knight spear was very heavy and needed three attendants to carry it together." My sister Rosa Bevaguli smiled.

Vagulli, a beer name, is sold well throughout the Danube province.

Because the family planted large areas of hops, Lucia and Rosa's ancestors chose Bevaguli as their surname. Their father, Rudolph Bevaguli, was a baron and followed an empire count. Relying on Waguli Beer, the family's financial resources were amazing.
