Chapter 142: The Stars and the Imminent Danger

"My name, my name is Joe Franklin..."

As soon as Chen Chen came back from the territory, this guy appeared at the door of the house, he looked like he was in his thirties, and he was well maintained, and when he saw Chen Chen, he immediately stepped forward to recommend himself to become the housekeeper of Chen Chen's territory.

"Why should I believe you," Chen Chen looked curiously at the man named Qiao in front of him and said with a smile.

Joe said confidently: "Because I am the best steward of Lu Gaoin," but this guy is indeed right, this Joe Franklin is known as the family of the butler family, a very different family, there is no professional in the family, but most of the members of the family are working as housekeepers for other transfer families, and even in the first two generations, there were people who served as royal stewards in the Rugauin royal family, but I don't know why this family suddenly declined.

In the information that Amat gave to Chen Chen, the name of Joe Franklin was listed in the top three.

Chen Chen came back from the territory and went to find Yamat, sold 100,000 gold coins of grain from her and sent it to the people in the territory, and then went to the middle-aged man named Duke at the royal reception, that is, the middle-aged man who handled the title and rank for Chen Chen, because in the documents issued by Akara, the construction cost of the infrastructure of Chen Chen's territory was the responsibility of the Lu Gaoyin royal family, so Chen Chen found the middle-aged man named Duke to coordinate these things.

However, for Chen Chen, these things were too troublesome, so he asked Yamart for a list of people who could do these jobs, and the list was in his hand, and the Joe Franklin in front of him appeared in front of Chen Chen.

Chen Chen still decided to use this guy, so he said; "I'll give you a three-month probationary period, if you pass the assessment of me and my team, then I will sign an employment contract with you, of course, if you can't pass, I won't let you work in vain, I want to stay, your grades, understand?"

"Yes, my lord, I would like to know how much authority I have to complete my work, because as a steward, I am not only responsible for the livelihood of the people in the territory, but also have a say in the protection of the territory." Joe said.

Chen Chen said with a smile: "Well, in the past three months, you have several tasks, the first is to build the infrastructure in the territory, housing, roads, water supply and other public facilities; Second, I want you to recruit people, and the target of recruitment is civilians, with priority given to those who have a skill and are family-oriented, followed by those who are physically able..."

"My lord, if you want to recruit civilians, how big is the territory?" Joe asked cautiously.

Chen Chen smiled: "How many people do you think we can feed on seventy square kilometers of land?" As he spoke, Chen Chen took out the map of the territory and handed it to Qiao in front of him.

Joe took the map and looked at the information on it, with a happy expression on his face, and said, "My lord, this place can feed 300,000 people..."

"Three hundred thousand? Not only that, it can definitely feed 500,000 people here, but now we don't have the ability to recruit so many people at once, as for food planting, after recruiting people, we can just reclaim those lands step by step," Chen Chen said with a smile.

"That, my lord, how to solve the problem of water sources," Joe was most concerned about this, the most important thing in the gravel wasteland was the problem of water sources, and it was also an unpolluted water source.

"Then you don't have to worry, I have already asked Lu Gaoyin for it, seventy magic maple trees will be ready in a few days, and they will be shipped over and planted directly," Chen Chen said.

After the invasion of hell energy, in order to ensure that human beings can use the water source normally, Heaven handed over a batch of magic maple seeds to humans, after humans planted these magic maple trees, the bottom of the maple tree will purify the water source within ten kilometers around, and the hellish energy that pollutes the water source will be absorbed by the maple tree as nutrients, a very magical plant.

"In that case, my lord, I have decided to accept this test," said Jo respectfully.

"Okay, now I'll tell you about my plans for the territory," Chen Chen nodded. Chen Chen knew that the young man named Qiao in front of him still had some ability, and knew that this was an opportunity for him to display his talents, and he would definitely agree.

Chen Chen's territory was surrounded by towering mountains on three sides, leaving only a canyon that could be accessed and exited, if it was built well, it was an easy place to defend and difficult to attack, the widest part of the canyon was seventy meters, and that place was also the most suitable place to build defenses.

In order to ensure that this place can be foolproof, Chen Chen will arm this place with various defensive structures such as tall city walls, urn cities, and arrow towers, and of course, various magic circles on the city walls are indispensable.

In the territory, Chen Chen planned to build three towns and a fortress, the fortress (the southern part of the territory) was undoubtedly at the entrance of the territory, the town near the entrance was used for commercial development, and the town built in the northern part of the territory was mainly used as an agricultural base, and the west of the territory was the location of the lord's mansion, but Chen Chen still put all the administrative institutions in the center of the territory and set up a separate town.

"Your Excellency, have you already thought of the name of your territory," Joe asked suddenly.

"Name," Chen Chen was slightly stunned, then saw the Starlight Sword within reach of the side, and said, "Then call it Xingchen Ling..."

"Star Collar, what a good name," Galadiya and the others, who had gone out to run errands at this time, walked back.

"I've seen you," said Joe, saluting Galadia, Miria, and Flora.

"Well, hello," the trio said.

"This is Joe Franklin, the new steward of our territory for the time being," Chen Chen then told the three of them what had just happened, and the three of them had no opinion on Chen Chen's decision, in fact, Galadia and Miria knew about the Franklin family, and the Joe in front of him had also heard of it, and he was a capable person.

Chen Chen handed over a bag of gold coins to Qiao, at this time, the funds he needed recently were about a thousand in it, these money were enough for the past few days, and what was needed for the rest of the matter only needed to keep an account.

"This is the family coat of arms you want," after Qiao left, Miriya put a freshly made coat of arms on the table, the pattern on it is according to the starlight sword and Dong'er's appearance, Chen Chen is ready to use it as his family's family emblem, I have to say that Chen Chen's painting is not bad, Dong'er is not bad, a soaring dragon surrounds a sword, surrounded by a little auspicious cloud ornamentation, it seems that this family emblem is very exquisite.

The name of the territory Chen Chen has been decided, and the name of the family is undoubtedly the surname of the founder, so the emerging Chen family and the Xingchen Collar that are in ruins are officially registered in Lu Gaoyin and appear in front of the world.

"Tatsu, do we need to hire spearmen as our defense?" Flavi asked.

"Why do you want to hire spearmen, we have to form our own defense forces," Chen Chen will definitely not look for those mercenaries to surround his territory, and it is best to control the direct force of the army.

"Build it yourself?" The girls were surprised, they didn't expect Chen Chen to have such an idea, in this world, there are two kinds of armed forces of nobles, one is the strength composed of family members or other transferees who have joined the family, these people occupy eighty percent of the family's armed forces, and the second is to hire mercenaries, basically Lu Gaoyin's spearmen, as the defensive force of the family territory, and it is indeed a bit incredible to want Chen Chen to form an army composed of civilians like this, because then the combat effectiveness is completely incomparable.

Chen Chen saw the girls' worries and said, "Don't worry, the army trained according to my method is no worse than those guys who are messy in a battle, and it will not be much stronger." Since Chen Chen said so, the girls can only wait and see.

Just when Chen Chen was tired and tired of planning the construction of his own territory with Galadia and the others, in the territory of a certain family in Kurast, a middle-aged man kept chanting a spell in a dim room, facing a black mirror, and a blurred shadow appeared in the mirror after a while.

"Master..."After the middle-aged man saw the image appear, he immediately fell to the ground and said reverently.

The shadow asked in a deep voice, "Our plan failed, didn't it?" ”

"Yes, my master, it would have worked, but an unexpected person appeared, and our well-planned plan failed," said the middle-aged man.

"Who is it?" Shadow asked.

The middle-aged man said: "It's a necromancer, it's not yet level 30, but this necromancer is very powerful, it took less than a year from the appearance to leave the Rog Fortress to go to Lu Gaoin, and there are five mutant skeletons by his side, and there are some strange skills, this person's existence is a great threat to us, master..."

"Well, less than level 30, our agreement with Heaven can't do anything to a transfer person below level 60, you can find another way to get rid of him, I don't want to hear anything about this person, understand?" Shadow Road.

"Yes, my master, but now because of this person, we have attracted the attention of the transfer headquarters, please give us some time," the middle-aged man said cautiously.

"I just want to turn it out, next time I don't want to hear this person ruin our plans again," the shadow said and disappeared from the mirror, while the middle-aged man sat on the ground, his clothes drenched with sweat behind his back.

After doing it for a while, the middle-aged man immediately lowered his head outside and shouted, "Someone..."

"Patriarch, what are the orders," said the man who was waiting outside the door as he immediately walked in.

The middle-aged man said, "Which gentleman is invited?" ”

"Yes, Patriarch,"

After a while, a man in a black robe walked into the room, and the middle-aged man handed a document to the man in a black robe and said, "The master doesn't want to hear anything from this person. ”

"Well, the master won't get any news from this person," After saying that, the black-robed man left the room, and when he opened the door, the breeze outside blew a corner of the information, and it was written on it, 'Mission Target: Necromancer Chen Chen'... (To be continued.) )
