In the endless sea, Nick's long-term anxiety made him a little irritable, and now that he was getting closer to Sean Island, this anxiety became more and more obvious.

He thought of many possibilities, such as Steve dying for some reason, such as the invasion of a sea monster that caused Steve's death, or the invasion of another island.

He stood on the deck of the ship, gazing in the distance at the silhouette of Sean Island. Suddenly, he suddenly found that there were a lot of ships on the island of Sean Island, and he felt in his heart, the situation he was most worried about appeared, and there was only one thought in his mind: "Sean Island has been invaded by other islands?"

He then hurriedly ran back to the cabin and informed the crew to prepare for vigilance. But Nick also knew in his heart that under the protection of the golden swordsman Taylor, Sean Island was successfully invaded, and with his strength as a silver swordsman, it was not worth mentioning at all.

"Even so, I have to fight to the death, which can be regarded as repaying the favor. Nick thought firmly.

......

"Good news, Lord Lord, Nick has successfully returned home, bringing with him a large number of people and gold. Sean, who was exercising, was interrupted by York's shouting.

"Oh, Nick is back, great. In the past two days, Sean has been thinking about Nick's affairs. In his subjective consciousness, if Nick does suffer misfortune, then he will have a lot of responsibility, after all, Steve's suicide is due to his negligence.

When Sean came to the beach again, the rudimentary dock was a little crowded, and Nick, who Sean cared about, was also following Taylor to maintain order. He stepped forward and patted Nick on the shoulder and said happily, "Nick, welcome home." ”

Sean saw that Nick's face was a little red, and he couldn't help but ask worriedly, "What's wrong?"

As soon as Sean's words fell, Taylor next to him couldn't hold back, and suddenly burst into laughter, making Sean look inexplicable.

Taylor put away his smile and explained to Sean, Nick thought that the Vic caravan was the enemy who invaded Sean Island, and almost fought with the guards of the Wake caravan, but fortunately Taylor arrived in time to avoid casualties.

"It's okay, it's my mistake about Steve, and thankfully Nick you're okay. Sean also smiled and said.

"Lord Lord, please rest assured, I'm fine, although the island has collapsed, but because the resource takeover has reached the final stage, there are no casualties, only a small amount of heavy cargo is lost, and the overall loss is not large. ”

"Due to the collapse of the island, this time the population is mainly taken over, but the people of Steve Island have died a lot due to hunger and disease, and only 367 people have returned to the island, and there are 58 gold coins, and the other is this island token. Nick heard Sean's concern, and hurriedly reported the situation of this voyage.

Sean also shook his head helplessly when he heard that many of the people who had died of starvation and disease. Even if Steve hadn't died because of him, he would probably have perished because of himself, and his earl father probably didn't expect him to push his son out of one fire pit and fall into another.

"It's hard work, why don't you go back and rest first, and leave it to Taylor and them here. You're back now just in time for tomorrow's wheat harvest and the upcoming harvest feast. ”

Nick shook his head, and Sean didn't try to persuade him. As they went about together, Duru's thin body kept shuttling between the new people, Joyce was blushing as he discussed with Vic, and the patrol team and the swordsman team were constantly patrolling with weapons to maintain order.

This was a full day, and after the initial settlement of all the lords was completed, Vic's fleet refused Sean's permission to leave.

Sean, Taylor, Durle, Joyce, and Nick slumped at the table, oblivious to the food on the table. Sean coughed lightly and said, "Everyone has worked hard today, especially Duru and Nick. But the results are obvious, and the number of people on Sean Island is now about to exceed 2,000, almost doubling from before. Taylor and Nick, the two of you must help each other to solve the law and order problem. ”

"Your Excellency, please rest assured, it's just that the patrol team and the swordsman team will still be expanded, and some of the iron ore for this trade will also be reserved for forging weapons. Taylor was still thinking about the iron ore that was traded today. For a long time, the patrol team's weapon was only a hardwood sword, which was enough to maintain law and order, but in the face of the invasion of sea monsters, the hardwood sword was still far from enough.

Sean hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "You can determine the size of the patrol team, and all the lords of the appropriate age will join the training of the swordsman team, and the number of people is not limited." At present, there are only 30 people in the patrol team, and there are only 28 people in the swordsman team, which is too little, and the strength of the swordsman team is too poor, so speed up the training. ”

"In addition, all the iron ore is used to make weapons, except for the reserved part to make agricultural tools, and if there is a reservation, you can also make some shields. ”

"Yes, my lord. Taylor reverted to silence again.

"My lord, in addition to paying for the previous trade, some of the gold coins this time are directly used to buy iron ore and grain, and all of our salt is also sold, according to the price of 1kg and 10 silver coins we said before. This time, a new trade agreement was also made with Vic, and the purchase of people, ore, and grain was not limited in quantity. With the existence of table salt, although there are not many gold coins left, it is believed that with the production of table salt, the pressure on gold coins will become less and less. ”

In addition, the snowflake cows for this transaction have also been placed in the grassland, and special people have been arranged to take care of them. As for the milking you mentioned, it is still to be tested by the people. ”

Joyce once again reported that since the success of the salt drying, Joyce no longer has to worry about the financial pressure of Sean Island.

Sean's eyes focused on Deru, who didn't say much, just shook his head. Seeing this, Sean also understood, pondered for a moment and said: "Don't worry about the problem of food for the time being, tomorrow is the harvest of wheat, and the output of wheat this time is expected to be considerable." In addition, the grain and stuffed fruits purchased in this trade will not be in short supply for the time being, so there is no need to worry too much. ”

"The last question is the question of what to do with the 500 people who traded, and whether to restore the free people. ”

Taylor, Joyce, Durroux, and Nick looked at each other, none of them expecting Sean to ask the question. In the end, it was Duru who asked: "Lord Lord, why did you ask this question, Sean Island paid gold coins to buy them, it is normal for them to become serfs, why do you want to return to the status of free lords." ”

"This is mainly a question of stability, whether the serfs will have evil thoughts due to their status, which will affect the stability of public order. ”

"Lord Lord, please rest assured that this will be handled by Joyce, and there will be no problems. As Vic said, Sean Island can feed them, and that's their creation. ”

"Okay, you can take care of this matter. Sean didn't forcibly change anything with the free mind in his previous life, he just said the worries in his heart, since there would be no problems, then follow the rules of this world.

Dinner was quickly settled and everyone went back to rest. Sean returned to the room and recalled the structure of the scythe in his previous life, so he hastily drew a diagram of the construction of the scythe and handed it to the blacksmith, and instructed the blacksmith to build it overnight. Previously, there was no idea of building iron ore because there was no iron ore, and now the iron ore purchased just solves this urgent need.

Consular people: 1,893 people

Seeing the number of people and gold coins skyrocketing again, Sean couldn't help but sigh: killing people and setting fire to the gold belt. The token obtained today is not enough to upgrade Sean Island, so it can only be temporarily collected, and Sean does not plan to upgrade for the time being, and the territory of Sean Island is still enough at present.

"Sticking to development is the king. ”
