Officials of the Territorial Administration went into the hills and mountains and Invercargill Forest to measure the size of the territory, and did not measure each territory one by one, but rode horses through the hills and mountains from east to west, and then from south to north, so that the approximate size of the land was known.

After that, you have to enter Surdak's territory and choose dozens of detection zones on the map.

As long as the deviation is not particularly serious, it will basically pass.

Especially in such a complex hilly mountain and forest terrain, the regulation of map drawing is more relaxed.

According to the 433 Territorial Allocation Law, both the Grimm Empire and the Province of Bednar will receive a large amount of vacant land, which will be rewarded to the young magical nobles who awaken the magic pool in the future.

The territory that Surdak has carved out is capable of settling at least a few hundred young magical nobles......

In the future, after these magical nobles acquire territories, they will also be registered in Wilkes City, and the officials of the Territorial Administration will personally bring them here, and at that time, each territory assigned will be remeasured.

Every year in various parts of the Grimm Empire, magical awakening ceremonies are held, and it is at this time that these commons territories are allocated.

At present, the development of the empire is inseparable from dimensional development......

In other words, the Grimm Empire not only needs to add new land, but also needs to send a lot of supplies to the empire itself in order to maintain the empire's prosperity.

The surveyor, with his two clerks, was mainly engaged in territorial surveys, and he was on the road all year round.

The next day, at Surdak's behest, Andrew led a battalion of cavalry and accompanied the officers of the Territorial Administration from the town of Dodan into the Invercargill Forest to carry out the territorial survey.

After entering the hilly and mountainous area, the surveyor discovered that there were many indigenous tribes in this carved territory.

Although many of the tribe's wooden walls and houses were newly built, their familiarity with the land suggests that they were originally inhabited here.

At present, according to the rhetorical question of the territory drawn by Viscount Surdak on the map, these indigenous tribes are just perfectly included.

This means that these natives are all people of the Viscount of Surdak.

Later, the surveyor discovered that even some of the cavalry in the cavalry battalion were recruited local aborigines, which once again made the surveyor envious.

It's rare to see a noble lord get along so well with the local natives in any place.

More often than not, the relationship between the two sides is based on iron and blood hatred.

To know whether a noble domain is prosperous, the number of people in the territory is also one of the important conditions.

Everyone in Wilkes City knew that Wizard Christopher and Viscount Surdak were fighting for the right to open up the Invercargill Forest, and it was they who discovered an open-pit copper mine in the forest.

However, in the end, the magician Christopher was banished to the battlefield, and Viscount Surdak regained the land, which was also very surprising to everyone.

Walking into this Warcraft Forest, the surveyor was very curious about the copper mining area, and he wanted to take a look, and this was completely within his purview, so the copper mining area became the first stop for the surveyor to inspect the actual land.

……

At the same time that Andrew and the surveyors entered the Invercargill Forest, Samira also led the Thunder Rhino Archer Battalion into the Invercargill Warcraft Forest again, and the Thunder Rhino Archer Battalion was about to rush to the slopes of the valley where countless old ironwood were poured down.

On his return, Surdak bought a kind of saw from a grocer that could cut ironwood.

It is said that when the saw blade was made, a large amount of lapis lazuli was mixed into it to maintain its sharpness.

This is also the kind of professional tool that sells at a high price after the gradual prosperity of the town of Dodan in recent months, and the business of these grocery stores has continued to improve.

Gulit did not want to stay in the town of Dodan, and he followed Samira's battalion of archers into the depths of the Invercargill Forest, intending to bring back another batch of old ironwood.

I don't know how many years this ironwood has been lying in that woodland, covered in thick green moss, but because of its hard texture, it has not rotted at all.

And after so many years of shelf, this ironwood does not deform no matter what it does, making it an excellent material for making hardwood bows.

After all, those ironwoods lay in the woods of Invercargill Forest, and if anyone found them, they would take them as much as they could.

Samira didn't want anyone else to snatch the wealth that had been brought to her lips.

……

Last week, Leto of the Dakuni tribe rushed to the town of Dodan.

This time, he brought a batch of magic herbs from the tribe, mainly to the barracks in exchange for some sophisticated weapons.

These tribesmen were reluctant to deal with the merchants of Dodan Town, mainly because they had some bad experiences in the past, but they all trusted Surdak, so these magical herbs were also sent directly to the military.

The Dakuni tribe is one of the fourteen tribes that have chosen to settle in the Invercargill Forest.

They were used to living in Invercargill Forest and didn't want to move to the hills and mountains to build a new home.

Invercargill Forest is rich in bounty, and the greatest danger to the Dakuni tribe is the fierce demonic beasts that come from the forest.

The warriors of the tribe must have excellent weapons in order to defeat those second-level demonic beasts, and this time they want to purchase some excellent weapons to send to the tribesmen.

The things that can be traded are these magic herbs, and although the ghost-patterned red ants have eaten everything in the forest, some of the magic herbs that grow in hidden places still remain.

The Dakuni tribe was well aware of the hiding place of these magical herbs, so after the tribe moved back to Invercargill Forest, they began to search for these mature magical herbs.

When Surdak returned from Invercargill Forest, Selena immediately took out the magic herbs from the warehouse.

Surdak intended to send these magical herbs to Justin and let him refine batches of healing potions.

This is also something that was agreed with him before.

……

After Lance and Golina's magicians left Dodan Town, the small building that Surdak had rented for them did not give up, and the young magic apothecary Justin currently lived in this small building.

The magician shut himself up in his house all day, without leaving the house, and even the curtains were rarely drawn.

To the greatest extent, it interprets the extent to which 'otaku' can stay.

Every day, the cook would come here with food to make lunch, clean the room, and leave after dinner, occasionally leaving a little later.

The cook was found by Surdak at the behest of Lady Luna, and is said to be a distant cousin of Lady Luna, but since the last time he saw Lady Luna's nephew, Surdak has not had a good impression of Lady Luna's relatives.

Surdak stood outside the small building and knocked on the door.

I faintly heard an exclamation, followed by a series of hurried footsteps on the floor with bare feet on the floor.

Surdak heard footsteps getting closer and straightened up.

It's just that after the panicked footsteps reached the door, they actually stopped, and the door never opened.

The footsteps at the door suddenly became much softer, and he stopped there without opening the door, but quietly walked back.

Surdak thought that Justin's home had been burglarized, and not long after, Justin, who was wearing a cotton pajama and slippers on his feet, showed a pair of big hairy legs, walked out and opened the door.

Sleepy-eyed looked at Surdak, who was a little swollen with his eyes, but he opened his arms very enthusiastically, intending to have an intimate hug with Surdak.

Justin had a smell of sweat and a pungent smell of perfume, and his forehead still looked sweaty, and a few strands of soft hair were lying on his forehead.

Surdak rubbed his nose with his hand and asked him, "Are you busy experimenting with magic?" ”

Justin smiled 'hehe' and didn't explain.

Turning around, Surdak led through the living room on the first floor to the terrace pergola on the second floor.

As the two sat down to chat, the cook came up with a plate of refreshments and fruit, her face flushed.

There are also some water stains on the ends of the hair, which looks like they have just taken a shower.

This was also the first time that Surdak looked at her seriously, seeing that she looked like Lady Luna in some places between her eyebrows, and was about thirty years old, seeing that Surdak looked a little reserved, he set up the refreshments and hurried away.

Surdak whispered to Justin speechlessly, "You have such a good appetite...... Don't pick anything. ”

He is a young nobleman in the Hylantha Magic Guild, and it is estimated that he has just graduated from the magic academy a few years ago, and he should be in his early twenties.

As a magical nobleman, Justin can be said to be free to choose the ladies of the noble families in Highlandsa City.

Justin smiled and didn't explain, just tucked the messy hair on the top of his head behind his head with his fingers, and leaned sideways on a wicker chair to Surdak and asked, "Why are you here?" I heard the other day that you were busy with what you were doing in Invercargill Forest......"

"Of course, I'm here to bring you magic herbs." Seeing that Justin didn't want to talk more, Surdak immediately started talking about business.

He placed a magic sealing box on the table, then unlocked the box and opened the sealing box wrapped in a metal skin, which contained some fresh magic herbs.

Seeing the magical herb on his face, Justin swallowed, and his eyes glowed golden.

"This time, I want you to refine as many secondary life potions as possible, this thing can save the lives of soldiers at a critical moment, and my other bells and whistles attribute potions."

"Got it, that's fine, I'll make as many secondary healing potions as I can."

Justin cheered, quickly relocked the lid of the box, and touched his hand on the belt, and in an instant the magic box disappeared from the table.

Justin, who had magic herbs, seemed to be a different person, and the whole person looked radiant, took out a magic book from his magic waist bag, and couldn't wait to turn it over.

Surdak looked up at Justin, who was a little very excited, and said:

"Justin, I'm going to Highland City recently, is there anything I need to bring back?"

Justin thought about it seriously before saying, "Then you wait for me, when I finish refining this batch of magic herbs, you can help me bring my share of the potion back to Highlandsa." ”

"Oh......" Surdak agreed, then added, "Then you have to hurry." ”

"You'll get it before dark."

Justin jumped up from the wicker chair and ran downstairs as fast as he could.

While running, he said.
