Chapter 15: Departure

Time has come to the third month of entering the star world.

The back garden of the Lord's Palace.

Lin Xiao sat on a rattan chair, holding a crystal cup in her hand, and the crimson wine flowed slowly.

Next to it is Bo Yan, the new political assistant of the Lord's Mansion, who is reporting on the recent affairs of the territory.

"To date, we have established stable trade links with three indigenous territories, mainly exporting the Seven Star Valley and the Albanite Copper. At the same time, we import a large number of building materials, metal utensils, rune materials, alchemy materials, food, tools, medicinal materials and other materials urgently needed in the territory. ”

"In terms of recruiting lords, since the territory is not well-known at present, although it is vigorously publicized and even promised heavy profits, there are very few technical and combat lords, and only a small number of ordinary lords are recruited. However, the environment and conditions of the territory are getting better and better, and I believe that as the reputation spreads, this situation will be greatly improved in the future, and even the people of the territory will vote spontaneously. ”

"In addition, the eye-clearing spiritual liquid that you specially instructed to purchase has been stored in the treasure treasury of the territory. ”

Boyan's words were methodical and clear.

He is becoming more and more handy in dealing with territorial affairs, and Lin Xiao is also happy to be idle.

Trade is going well.

The Seven Star Valley contains Yuan Power, and long-term consumption is of great benefit to cultivation. Orichalcum is even more precious, whether it is refining weapons and armor, or large weapons, it is an excellent material.

With these two specialties in hand, he is not worried about running out of sales.

It is precisely by earning a steady stream of profits that he can buy other materials in large quantities and develop his territory rapidly.

As for the flame mushroom, this thing can't be planted indefinitely, and if you plant too much in the same place, because of the density of the yuan force, maybe all of them won't grow.

Although there is still a surplus of flame potions in the territory today, it will definitely become more and more nervous as more professionals join in the future.

Reserve now, there is always a benefit.

The elixirs that assist cultivation are always too little, not too much.

The trade is developing very well, but the recruitment of the people still makes Lin Xiao a little worried.

Citizens are extremely important to the development of a territory, and there has never been a few dozen or hundreds of people who can develop into a powerful territory.

"In other words, none of the recent plans to recruit the lords have gone very well?" he said, looking at his political assistant.

"Yes. ”

"Hmm...... It seems that I was in too much of a hurry. Lin Xiao nodded, and took a sip of the wine in the glass, "The conditions can't be too high, the resources of the territory are not abundant now, as for the ordinary people, how much can be recruited." ”

"Your Excellency is wise. ”

Lord Lords are not stubborn people, Bo Yan thought to himself.

"So, how is our Red Feather Eagle Knight Squad training?" Lin Xiao then asked.

The Red Feather Eagle can be ridden half a month ago. Lin Xiao immediately selected fourteen people from the knight squad to form the first sky army of the Immortal River Leader-

Red Feather Eagle Knight Squad.

Of course, the most powerful of them all, the Red Feather Eagle, has been tamed as a mount by him himself.

The land mount Flame Dragon Horse chases the wind, and the sky mount Akabane Eagle chases the feather.

As a lord, of course, good things should be given priority to yourself.

"The riders worked hard and worked well with the mounts. Especially Captain Marcas, who is the most talented Red Feather Eagle Knight I've ever met. ”

Boyan's tone was full of amazement.

Not only for Marcas's talent, but also because a small fairy river leader actually has many sky classes that are not available in powerful territories.

Generally speaking, land beasts are easy to catch, so the knights in most territories are not short of mounts, and what they lack is the best mounts.

But flying beasts are rare.

The reason for this rarity is that it is difficult to catch.

Knights can't fly, and if they want to catch flying beasts, they usually set traps, steal eggs, and so on.

It's okay to set a trap, there is a possibility of success.

As for stealing beast eggs, fierce beasts have a certain amount of wisdom, and their nests must be in the most secret places.

As a result, most territories may have a small number of flying knights, but no formed sky troops. In particular, flying beasts form populations, which can continue to expand in number, and become more rare.

It is not difficult to understand the shock in Bo Yan's heart when he saw a group of red feather eagles for the first time.

"Marcas?" Lin Xiao remembered that this knight had vowed to be a striker and conquer the Storm Sea, "Then, this operation, let him go with me." ”

"My lord, I don't understand...... Bo Yan stopped talking, as if he was considering his words, "Your safety is the top priority of the territory, the pirate lair is too dangerous, why do you want to go in person, ignoring your own safety?"

Ever since he knew that Lin Xiao was going to seize the treasure tree in person, he tried his best to dissuade him.

The liege is the heart of the realm.

If something happens to a liege, the realm will fall apart.

Seeing that the development of the Immortal River Leader was thriving, and the lord was mysterious and powerful, he really couldn't figure out why Lin Xiao was stubborn in risking his life in this matter.

Lin Xiao thought for a while and asked rhetorically, "Do you think you can succeed if you go to someone else?"

"Uh, this ......" Bo Yan's tone was suffocated, and he said in an instant, can you definitely succeed if you go?

"I know what you're thinking, I can't guarantee 100% success when I go, but I'll be able to come back safely. ”

Bo Yan opened his mouth, but didn't say anything more after all.

Lin Xiao knew that the other party still disagreed in his heart, but he didn't care.

Maybe when the treasure tree appears in front of everyone's eyes, all doubts will disappear - just like the previous times.

......

Half a month later.

Lin Xiao covered her nose vigorously, and glanced at the two large wooden barrels filled with smoked leaf fish from a distance, "How many catties in total?"

"It's close to 300 catties, and the smoked leaf fish in the offshore sea are basically almost caught, and if you want more, you can only go to the open sea. The first experienced old fisherman replied.

"Well, no, that's enough. As he spoke, he stepped back a distance again before he inhaled vigorously, "Cover it with a wooden plank and seal it with lacquer glue to make sure that no breath leaks." ”

"As you wish. ”

After all the means were prepared, Lin Xiao called Marcus over and explained his plan of action.

As the night shrouded.

Two red feather eagles with a wingspan of several zhang soared into the sky from Xianhe Island.

On the back of the eagle, sitting naturally were Lin Xiao and Marcas, both of whom were holding a large wooden barrel.

The two of them, two eagles, under the cover of the night, flew quickly in the direction of Shadow Island.

According to the charts of the Coral Sea and the pirates' confessions, Shadow Island is located about 500 kilometers southwest of Xianhe Island, and it only takes more than two hours to reach it under the full flight of the Red Feather Eagle.

If this is changed to a sea boat, even if the whole journey is sailing downwind, it will take more than ten hours, not to mention the headwind.
