At dinnertime, Lei Ming called Princess Karina to dine with him in the small restaurant of the City Lord's Mansion.

Princess Karina was originally unhappy, but in Lei Ming's eyes, she was a captive, and her opinion didn't matter.

"Huh?"

When Lei Ming saw Princess Karina, she changed into brightly colored clothes again, and her eyes were much smarter, but this was not the reason for his surprise, what he was surprised was that he sensed a trace of mana fluctuations on Princess Karina.

Princess Karina's mana fluctuations are very weak, but they do exist.

When did she become a little mage?

Lei Ming was puzzled, but Princess Karina, as the beloved daughter of His Majesty the Emperor, seemed to be understandable that she had learned a little spell, and Lei Ming suppressed the doubts in her heart.

A level 1 mage is really too weak to hurt him at all.

Lei Ming buried his head in the meal, the tender barbecue slices sandwiched in the fresh vegetables, swallowed, very refreshing, the rich sauce in the mouth endless aftertaste.

However, in the face of the chef's carefully prepared dinner, Princess Karina couldn't eat it, she always had a fear of being seen through by Thunder, especially when Thunder Ming stared at her just now, she was almost scared to death.

She fears that Thunder has found out that she has learned spells, and then, as among the knights she has seen before, the evil villain has strangled the gifted genius in the cradle.

Yes, although "Heart of Magic" has struck her more than once, Princess Karina has always felt that her talent is very good, because she can learn the spell of level 1 as soon as she learns it.

At night Thunder and Princess Karina slept in the same room, with two quilts.

Thunder fell asleep early, and only Princess Karina stared at Thunder cautiously, for fear that Thunder would suddenly open her eyes and ......

As a result, in the middle of the night, the sleepy insect dragged Princess Karina to sleep as well.

The Magic Heart, on the other hand, was lying quietly on the table in front of the windowsill, motionless.

It was a quiet night.

The next day, after bread and milk, old Sean handed Lei Ming an edict from His Majesty the Emperor.

Spring is picking up. His Majesty Xin Lian called on the lords of all countries to train the militia, rectify military affairs, purchase equipment, and be ready for battle at any time.

The Bourbons now occupy two provinces of the Empire. Lei Ming will inevitably receive an edict.

In the face of the overall situation, personal grievances must stand aside.

Are there eggs under the nest?

Lei Ming nodded, having an idea in his heart, he said to Old Sean: "Grandpa Sean, the spring training in the province will be arranged by you." Each city trains separately, and twenty days later a military parade is held in the castle, where each city sends the best militia to be reviewed, and the family awards the Iron Cross to the best militia. ”

Old Sean smiled after hearing Thunder's idea.

Lei Ming's idea is ingenious, and maybe it will pay off if it is implemented.

In addition to the Eternal Heart Castle in Bourbon Province, there are fourteen earthen cities, and if there is competition and comparison between each earthen city, there is no need to send people to supervise it, and those who want to perform in the parade will work hard for it.

Old Sean smiled and agreed. He decided to give it a try as Lei Ming said, and the military parade held twenty days later was another feast, and it must have been very lively.

And according to the experience of old Sean, when the territory is lively, it is often when the family is strong.

After arranging the spring training, Lei Ming was about to inspect the newly built port near the inland sea at the southernmost tip of Bourbon Province.

He chose to ride a goblin airboat, which was not much faster than riding a stone horse, but it was easier for people to rest in the cabin.

It's still the same airboat that Thunder was riding on when he returned from the High Elf Academy. The goblin captain had collected enough Gingler from Thunder to cover his exertion along the way, and the goods carried on the airboat had brought him a lot of profit.

Therefore, when Lei Ming saw the goblin captain again, the other party's eyebrows were bent. Smiling.

The goblin captain greeted Thunder with great enthusiasm, and he had now learned of Thunder's identity, and the Bourbon Province was the domain of the young nobleman.

He even regretted a little that he hadn't talked to the young nobleman on the previous journey. It is said that the empire's new dragon duke, Tutura, began to make his fortune by relying on his relationship with Thunder.

He was enthusiastic, naturally because he wanted to make a profit, and he was very optimistic about the market in the Eternal Heart Castle, where some of the gadgets used on weekdays were also quite popular.

The airboat lifts off and arrives in the harbor before nightfall.

The current Bourbon province has been full of spring, and the grass is green everywhere.

In the port near the inland sea, there is a military camp set up by the family's private soldiers, and to the north of the barracks, many small camps have been built.

There are many adventurous people in this world, and the huge profit of the Purple Fishman for 100 gold is even more attractive to many young people who are good at the water, who look for targets on the shore during the day, and sometimes push homemade wooden boats into the water.

The family's private soldiers were responsible for cleaning up the fishmen who came ashore, and they had no spare time to toss around on the coast.

However, the family's private soldiers will not drive away these poor lords who rely on the military camp to make a living in the inland sea, and some of them may have a relationship with them, anyway, if these people catch the purple fishmen, they will exchange them for gold.

And when exchanging, these private soldiers can also collect some benefits and earn a hundred gold grads, so it has to be meaningful, right?

Without these benefits, it would have been a painful chore to deal with the fish-people here, they have to patrol along the coast during the day and patrol at night, and there is basically no time to rest, and now they have a headache as soon as they hear the fish-people's "wow woo woo" call.

That's what everyone knows, and the benefits of these private soldiers are stationed here with hardships and hard work, and they work the coast for a year, how can it be enough for them to save a wife.

Behind the glamour in front of them is their silent efforts.

Then around the barracks, there are some small traders, there are very few goblin merchants here, because there are not many people, and there are only a few thousand private soldiers plus the people, and the goblin merchants do not look down on such a small market.

There are also small traders among the Terrans, who can make some profits to support their families by selling large quantities of goods bought from goblin merchants throughout the province.

The port that Lei Ming wanted to inspect was actually very small, with a hundred and ten meters of cheap and hard wood on board, and now only a few small homemade fishing boats were moored in the harbor.

This port is definitely going to be expanded, and now as long as the three "Damaha" fishing boats arrive at this scale, there will be no room for it immediately.

Lei Ming had already seen all the barracks and the harbor on the airboat, and he turned a blind eye to the many small camps on one side of the barracks as if he didn't see them, and when the water was clear, there were no fish, he knew this very well. (To be continued.) )
