If a force wants to operate well, it must be inseparable from abundant financial support.

War is fought against the economy, and development also depends on the economy.

The same goes for the Bloodline.

Li De's farming plan will require a lot of financial support in the future, which is why he is so eager to buy a chamber of commerce.

After the grain purchase is completed, Li Dehui will inject capital again to let the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce operate normally.

With him, a high-level mage, as the backing, the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce will no longer be exploited by greedy nobles as much as before, and it can develop even better.

Moreover, the Blood Clan has hundreds of mid-level mages, and when the time comes, half of them will be used to make magic items, and the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce will make a lot of money.

Mage is the envy of everyone, not only because of their great power, but also because of their ability to make money.

Magic potions, magic scrolls, equipment enchantments, and more all require the power of magic.

And these industries are all windfall profits, more profitable than arms.

The ancestor of the blood clan was arrogant and lonely, and he would not use the blood clan to make money at all, not to mention that the blood clan was not short of money before.

But now it's different, the funds needed for farming can be called a bottomless pit, and the wealth accumulated by the blood clan will be spent sooner or later.

He was also planning to train mage apprentices, but at this stage, he still had to serve the immediate start of farming, and the matter of making money could not start until everything was on the right track.

There weren't enough humans in the castle, and his thoughts were reflections on the surface of the lake.

With at least 10,000 humans, the Bloods will be able to escape the dilemma of having to risk great dangers every year to plunder humans beyond the distant mountains and mountains.

can be regarded as truly taking your destiny into your own hands.

Moreover, in his plan, there are not only tens of thousands of humans stationed in the castle, but the fertile land behind can support hundreds of thousands of people.

After the initial embarrassment was resolved, Li De believed that the castle would definitely become a powerful force.

The potential of the Bloodline is not inferior to that of Grimm City, a city with a population of millions.

When it reaches this point, he no longer needs to worry about the sand sculptors who make trouble all day long.

After the five mage apprentices escorted Laurent and the oak box full of Kimpuk out of the mage tower, Weina couldn't wait to get to Lid.

Those bright blue eyes could speak like a cuckoo bird in spring, and looked directly at the owner of this mage tower.

"Lord Li De, you just answered your magic questions, didn't you?"

Looking at the envious glint in the girl's beautiful blue eyes, Li De nodded slightly.

"Well, you, along with Karui and Cohen, come with me to the study, I'm giving you a lecture."

The girl's eyes instantly narrowed into a crescent shape, and the joy in her heart overflowed on her face.

And Karui and Cohen, who had already gained a lot, were even more surprised, but they didn't expect Master Li De to give them a lesson individually.

Although the other mage apprentices were envious, they were also self-aware, and their talents were completely incomparable with the three.

"You don't have to be envious, their level has already surpassed you a lot, work hard, strive to catch up as soon as possible, and I will also give you individual counseling when the time comes"

These words instantly made the faces of this group of mage apprentices full of excitement.

"It's Lord Lee Deok"

"Don't worry, I'll do my best"

"Thank you ......"

Looking at the excited expressions, Li De nodded and walked towards the study.

Since he has decided to train these apprentices, he should do his best, and the sooner he becomes full-fledged mages, the more it will help him.

。。。。。。

The efficiency of the blood clan far exceeded Li De's expectations.

On the third day back in Greentown, while Laurent was still running for a huge amount of food, Otis sent a message from the bats that the cleanup of the southern part of the castle was complete.

The cleared area could provide more than 8,000 human habitations, and they also turned thousands of winter cotton clothes out of the warehouse.

Li De was relieved to receive the news.

Half of the pre-farming plan has been completed, and now the project can be started only after the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce has purchased a sufficient amount of wheat.

Of course, he won't wait until the 1800 gold Puck is spent before proceeding to the next step.

Only one-third of the grain needs to be purchased to start the population plundering program.

"Otis, quickly send 50 clansmen to the south of the distant mountains and mountain ranges, the warring place of the Orc Empire's invasion to find out the news of the refugees, and if you encounter a large number of refugees, you can send the clansmen to follow.

Be sure to stay away from the main battlefield and avoid encountering orcs with the Wyvern. ”

On the snow-white letterhead, the standard continental script was written in a quill pen, a hieroglyphic script that had nothing to do with Chinese characters.

Li De rolled up the paper and tied it to a special alchemy storage bag on the bat's belly.

flutter~

The domesticated bat flew out of the Mage Tower through the half-open stained-glass window with its wings flipped out of the Leader's Tower when Li De let go of his hand.

Li De looked down at Green City through the translucent stained-glass window, and fell into deep thought.

Because of the invasion of the Orc Empire, there are more and more border refugees in Green City, hundreds of miles away from the border, and it is foreseeable that the war on the border must be more exaggerated than in previous years.

Li De can clearly feel that the atmosphere in the city has been much more tense these days, and there are several times more beggars and refugees on the streets than usual.

At this point in time, the Blood Clan must be sent to collect the news first, and when the news is found out on the Otis side, the grain purchase of the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce will definitely be completed.

A two-pronged approach.

Once the food reserves reached one-third of the reserves, the looting of refugees could begin.

His plan was simple and brutal, which was to find the refugees and bring them back to the castle after losing their homes due to the war.

Plundering the population.

On weekdays, if the Blood Clan plunders the human race on a large scale, it will definitely be a disaster once it is discovered...... The Bloodline, covered in alchemical materials, is definitely the creature that mages are most happy to see.

But now it's different, the orc army has smashed the border, and no one cares about the disappearance of a group of refugees.

So this time is a great time to expand the population, and if you miss it, you may have to wait until next year when the orcs invade again.

Due to the lack of food in winter, the orcs invade the Nolan Empire every year, plundering enough food and then retreating to the barren wasteland at the beginning of spring the following year.

The wealthy and farm-savvy Nolan Empire was already regarded as a breeding ground by the orcs, who returned for food in the winter.

However, because the orcs retreat every year, the Nolan Empire has a very weak confidence to fight against the orcs, and those noble lords are even more unwilling to fight the murderous orcs for the sake of the civilians on the border......

Anyway, as soon as spring begins, the orcs will retreat, and since there is no loss of land, what does it have to do with them.

And civilians living on the border have become victims, and this happens every year.

But I have to say that the land on the border is indeed fertile, and even if it is hit every year, the civilians on the border can always recover in the shortest possible time.

The population living at the border has also remained relatively stable.

It is precisely because of this historical background that Li De has the confidence to formulate this plan.

However, he can already foresee that after the farming plan is launched, it will be a difficult problem for the castle to worry about for a long time to come.

After all, plundering 5,000 people is not the same concept as plundering 50,000 people.

And the number of people in the castle he planned was hundreds of thousands.
