Just came out of the Adventurers' Guild, and Romon and Fafer were stunned.

It happened that a group of soldiers passed by, wearing iron helmets, light armor, long knives hanging from their waists, and shields in their hands, and the first one, riding war horses, wearing heavy knights' armor, was awe-inspiring.

On his armor turned out to be the symbol of a sail with a blue background, with a crown on it, decorated with ribbons on both sides, and a medal hanging from each.

After so much time in this world, no matter how ignorant Romon is, he also knows that this is the mark of the royal Fried family.

Four hundred years ago, the famous hero Mektar excelled in naval warfare and made great achievements in the exorcism war, so he was able to establish the kingdom of Eske on the coast, in this world, the kingdom is not very large, there is no large-scale empire.

In a world where there are gods who can interfere with the mortal world, the so-called unified empire has become illusory.

Therefore, in the information from a hundred years ago, it was mentioned that the total area of the kingdom where Romon was located was only 55,000 square kilometers, and the kingdom had a total of seven counties, including the capital

However, according to records, the city (county) of Edmi and Pulan are the territories of the royal family, especially Puran, which is located in a fertile plain, is the national grain production base, and is also rich in grapes and olives, in fact, it has long become the foundation of the royal family

The counties of Ouner and Elinson, which are areas where royal influence can be reached, also have some proportion of land

The three counties of Pakt, Rumke, and Dedag were controlled by their respective counts, and were only nominally subordinate to the king, and were largely autonomous

This county, that is, Paquet County, has always been governed by the Earl of Camplin and the nobles of all ranks, when will the king's army enter the county in a grand manner?

Thinking of the increase in the number of adventurers in the Forest of Thorns, Romon was thinking about contacting it, and when a little inspiration loomed, Farfer asked: "Romon let's go, didn't you say that you were going to the Kramp Comptoir to meet Barn and Fezia?"

Romon's train of thought was shortened, he scratched his scalp, and said, "Okay, let's go now." ”

On Earth, the streets of medieval cities were potholed, waterlogged, and muddy, but in this world, there were still basic sewers, and cities had full-time cleaners who were responsible for sweeping the streets.

Now, on this side of the street, all of them have been opened up into shops, and they have become countless small shops.

Romon and Fafer led the way, and there were not many pedestrians along the streets, and there were occasional fountains or two statues, and although the city was small, it was now home to a large number of merchants and adventurers.

"Here we are, Kramp Comptoir!" said Romon with a glance.

The Kramp Comptoir is in the city, not big or small, and has its own small building.

Waiting for Romon and Fafer to go up, a waiter stepped forward: "Welcome, two gentlemen, willing to serve!"

"I'm Romong, please inform your master. Romon said, entering the hall, the layout of the hall can be called fresh and elegant. The walls are decorated with delicate and relatively bright ornamentation, and the counters and sofas all show an atmosphere.

The man said a few words to the receptionist behind the counter, then led to a room on the second floor and knocked lightly on the door.

"Who is it?" Barnle's voice rang out behind the door.

"Hello, you are approached by two gentlemen named Romon and Fafer. ”

Only a minute later, the door opened, and after seeing the crowd standing at the door, Barn said with a smile: "Welcome, welcome, please come inside, why do you have time to come today?"

"Oh, go to the Adventurer's Guild once, and I'm here to settle this year's payment. Romon sat down on the couch unceremoniously.

The year-end settlement seems to have always been a tradition in many societies, many countries, and many worlds, and here is no exception, it is November, and the settlement is a little earlier now, but it is not outrageous.

Barn was stunned and said, "It's okay!"

He took out an account book, calculated it a little, and said, "Mr. Romong, there are now a total of eleven transactions in and out, mainly because the secondary herb transactions are relatively large, and now you still owe 615 gold coins." ”

Hearing this number, Fafer raised his eyebrows, a year ago, both of them were worried about a mere three hundred silver coins, and now this money is equivalent to more than 6,000 silver coins, but they don't take it seriously.

Luo Meng listened, and said lightly: "If there is no accident, the grain will be harvested in the territory next year, and it is estimated that before the winter wheat is harvested, two batches of grain and materials will be needed, how much money do you calculate!"

"As before, due to the recent price increase, I still need about 250 gold coins. Barn replied after a pause.

"I can also give you two batches of herbs before June next year, all of which are produced in greenhouses, and the quality I believe you should understand that it will not be inferior. Luo Meng thought for a while and said, "Well, it's fifty percent more than before!"

"Fifty percent more!" Barn gasped, which was a lot of money: "In this case, I will buy it for three hundred gold coins per batch, how about it?"

Romon groaned and agreed, which immediately made Barn smile, this year's business with Romon has made a lot of money!

Luo Meng asked lightly: "Why, the price of food and materials has increased recently?"

"Yes, it's gone up a lot, not only for food, but also for herbs!" replied Barnle.

"In that case, there must be some kind of action, if you have the chance, don't forget to cooperate with me!" Romon said pointedly.

After becoming a third-level druid and gaining a safe base, Romon can finally take a breath and settle down in this world, on this land, and gradually exert his experience and strength on the earth.

The cities of this world are often small in scale, the capital of the kingdom has a population of less than 50,000, and it is said that there are only a few cities on the whole continent with a population of more than 100,000, and the general cities are between 5,000 and 20,000 people.

This is in line with the current level of productivity in the world, when a city of 10,000 people needed 3,000 tons of grain per year, that is, the surrounding countryside needed 200,000 mu to feed the city dwellers.

Although I don't know this number, I know that it is about 100 villages.

Prices that normally can be maintained at a certain level have risen significantly, and it is obvious that there are some problems.

When Barn heard Romon say this, he was taken aback and looked at Romon this simple reasoning, which was already an incredible insight at the current level of knowledge in this world.

Fafel, for example, couldn't have thought of this problem.

This connection was also felt by an old merchant like Barn, and he took advantage of it, and after hearing this, he had a higher evaluation of Romon on the other side, and he thought about it with some hesitation and said: "That's true, the city is stockpiling grain, and many supplies are also being purchased. ”

Then, I just kept my mouth shut.

Romon is an outsider in the end, he doesn't have a deep understanding of this, so he can't say much, seeing that Barn is a little frightened, he feels strange in his heart, and after a while, he says again: "I want to prepare a few gifts." ”

"Oh, for whom?" asked Barnle, coming to his senses.

"First of all, of course, it was given to my lord, who is nominally his servant!" said Romon indifferently.

"Of course, I'll weigh the gifts. Barn smiled, there was a set of rules on the mainland for a situation like Romon in this way.

"The second is a gift for the second lady Alini, this is attentive, just a hundred gold coins!"

"One hundred!" Everyone present was shocked, this is equivalent to half a year's tax payment in a village, this gift is not light!

"Also, a gift for Jayfar, Mert, and Mr. Sackville, and Sir Dymerka. "This is a thin courtesy, just a sign of friendship.

"In the end, the people in my territory are divided into two grades: freemen and tenants, and each household will give some New Year's gifts, after all, it is the first year of the establishment of the territory, and it is still a special case!" Luo Meng finally said, he smiled a little wryly, as a lord, even the benevolent government needs to find a reason, otherwise it will be counterproductive.

For the last one, Barn really didn't think so, but the reason was reluctantly past, and he agreed.

In the end, he bought some small gifts for the two families of Fafer and Nick, and asked him to send them before the end of the year, the total value of these is two hundred gold coins, which makes Fafer a little heartbroken, but for Luo Meng, it doesn't matter, there is room in Shennongjiao, and he is afraid that he will not be able to make money in the future?

Seeing that there was nothing more to say, he took his leave and went out.

When he went out, Fafer looked uncertain, looked over, and saw two people walking on the street.

One was a knight in armor, he was about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, with long golden hair, and a resolute expression, but what impressed Romon the most was the armor, looking at this appearance, this armor was at least thirty kilograms, but when he wore it, he moved freely, as if he was wearing a leather coat.

Such a powerful warrior, at least level five or above, Luo Meng didn't even dare to use his spiritual eye to detect.

The second is a woman, you can't say that she is a girl, because in terms of appearance, she is not more than 20 years old, but that kind of temperament and expression, definitely more than 20 years old, she is wearing a white priest's robe, the robe is painted with the emblem of the sun god, and the six silver lines are shocking, there is no doubt that she is the priest of the Lord of Light, and she is also a sixth-level priest.

Paladins and priests?

Although Romon had heard of it for a long time, it was the first time he had seen it.

Luo Meng was even more thoughtful, but after a while, he patted Farfer and said, "Farfer, have you passed the third-level warrior exam?"

Fafer cracked his mouth and smiled: "It's passed." ”

What a genius, Romon thought, he now knew that Fafer had reached this point, and he was so genius. He relied on the Shennongjiao space to reach the third level, but he relied on his own training, he was simply a natural warrior, thinking of this, Luo Meng was happy in his heart, and patted him on the shoulder: "Then let's go back!"
