After crossing over, if you want to become a qualified lord, you must be proficient in government affairs, laws, and various agricultural construction.

Most importantly, be sure to know the most detailed knowledge of glass, wine, cement, explosives, muskets, etc. Then, through the route of building high walls, accumulating grain, and slowly becoming kings, first engage in science and technology and other things in your own territory, and work hard for a few years, you can start to conquer the kings of the world.

Unfortunately, he had no grasp of these charles, and he sat in the place where the baron usually worked, staring blankly at the stack of documents in front of him that were more than high school students' study materials.

Charles opened a book casually, and felt a little dazzled after reading half a page, which recorded the output, sale, and taxes paid of many territorial items, etc., which could be understood, but it was really difficult for him to find any problems in it and make his own suggestions.

"Well, Grandpa Simon, tell me about the main problem."

Since he didn't understand, Charles simply asked the old man standing next to him, this is the great butler who has worked in Shining Gold Town for decades, and there is no one in the entire territory who is more proficient in this information than him.

After listening for more than an hour, and asking several times during the period, Charles finally got a general idea of many things in the territory.

Flash Gold Town relies on gold mines, and if it weren't for the existence of this small gold mine, it would not have formed a town with more than 10,000 people here.

With the exception of gold mines, more than eighty percent of the territory is not suitable for growing food crops, and two percent of the arable land is mostly used to grow fruit trees, tea trees and other tree crops. The soil here is really not suitable for growing crops, and most of the food is purchased from Stormhaven.

In the depths of the Moonlight Forest, there are also many rich ore veins, silver ore, iron ore and other things, and some people have even found various colored gems.

It's a pity that there are dangers such as wild beasts and poisonous insects everywhere, as well as dense primeval forests. Baron Jean Bjanno, and the previous lord had thought about it, but they didn't choose to implement it, and the cost and benefit didn't match.

As a small town close to the forest, the biggest benefit is naturally wood and beast furs, but because the baron did not hesitate to sign an unequal agreement with Viscount Mark in the north in order to open up the door to the imperial royal academy for him, the wood and fur must be given priority to each other throughout the year, and the low price is infuriating.

"Most of the merchants in the territory have started to complain because of the previous cheap sales, and some have even moved from the territory." Simon sighed.

"Oh, so the biggest problem right now is Viscount Mark?" Charles tapped his right hand on the table.

"Exactly. The biggest advantage of Shining Gold is that it has a gold mine, which has built up a strong guard, so that many people can trade here with peace of mind. But now, both fur and timber are monopolized by Viscount Mark......"

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Charles waving his hand and smiled: "Don't worry, I will have a serious talk with Viscount Mark, and he should agree." ”

"Ah, young master, how are you going to talk to the other party?" Simon looked at him in disbelief.

"I like to be reasonable, and I like others to be reasonable, and if it doesn't make sense, then I'll talk about it." Charles squinted and smiled.

The biggest feature of farming is that there will basically be no major crises in the early stage, but now there are only more than two months left before the invasion of the barbarian army, and he is not given time to develop steadily at all.

Simon looked puzzled and watched him leave, wondering what he would do to convince the greedy vampire.

……………………

The only road from Shining Gold to the northern city of Sain runs through the edge of the Moonlit Forest, avoiding the hilly and mountainous terrain that several territories have had to pay a lot to open this trade route.

At this time, on the road, a caravan was driving a wagon full of goods.

In one of the leader's carriages, a well-dressed man said disdainfully: "This rich man in the countryside is really rude, we went to entertain with that kind of garbage." ”

The middle-aged man who led the team smiled and said: "Do you want to understand them, after all, this group of soil buns live on this little thing, of course they will not be very happy to see us, don't you see those people who want to eat us?" Ha ha! ”

He couldn't help but laugh as he spoke, and the aggrieved appearance of those people came to mind, and he felt a strange pleasure.

"Hehe, who asked them to beg to come to the door, it's not waiting to be delivered......"

Rumble!

Hiss and hiss!

The two horses in front of them screamed in horror, and the cart came to a halt suddenly, causing the ox cart behind to crash into it, and almost knock it over.

"What's going on, are there robbers!" Both were terrified.

There were dozens of guards in the entire convoy, and even if there were robbers, they wouldn't dare to provoke them at will. And in the name of the Sain family, aren't you afraid of being exterminated by the army sent by the city of Sain?

"Ah, monster!"

There was a cry of terror from outside, the guards and workers all screaming, and hundreds of voices poured in, leaving him at a loss as to what to do.

Monsters, there are often monsters infested recently, and they are infinitely powerful and murderous, could it be that they hit it this time?

Buzz!

At this moment, a dense buzzing sound sounded, and one after another cows and horses fell down, and the accompanying guards and others also fell down screaming.

The two of them opened the curtain tremblingly, and a yellow bee bigger than a fist suddenly came into view, and before they could react, a poisonous needle had stabbed them in the shoulder.

The terrible toxin set in quickly, leaving both of them unconscious.

The humming faded away, and it was quiet again, leaving only moaning all over the floor.

Dozens of strong cattle and horses were all killed, and most of the hundreds of people present fell into a coma, and only a few guards remained awake with their strong physique.

However, they would rather not have this kind of sobriety, because a group of timber wolves suddenly burst out, and their green eyes made them instantly frightened.

The captain of the guard untied the birdcage in his hand and shoved the hastily written note into the bird's leg, trying to get it to pass on what had happened to the city of Than.

It's a pity that the gray bird just took off, and was hit by a poisonous needle, fell from the sky, and was torn alive by several weird poisonous bees!

Whew!

Dozens of timber wolves originally seemed to be running for their lives, but after seeing these delicious foods, they suddenly stopped, and under the howl of the head wolf, they pounced one by one!

The screams disappeared in the blink of an eye, and when the timberwolves left, there was no living creature at the scene!

In the Masterling Manor, Simon finds the returning Charles: "Little master, what happened earlier, those ...... who were killed"

"Oh, there's been a terrible monster in the forest lately, and they've been unlucky enough to come across it. I heard that they were all torn apart, which is really pitiful. Charles shrugged his shoulders, looking helpless.

"When they come to ask, just explain to them well, I like to be reasonable, don't be misunderstood."
