Volume 1 - The Famous Gate of Fei Leng Cui Chapter 67 - A New Territory
Tulip collars are an irregular semicircle, and the springs of the Yuxi River wind down the low hills of the Endless Forest, where the mountain spirit-Lubis once adopted the sharp-eared golden-tufted leopard cat, and the clear and sweet water gushes up, and the rivers that converge along the ditches nourish the land and the vast pastures.
In particular, after Perth obtained the mountain corolla of the mountain spirit, and took the pointy-eared golden-tufted ocelot - Lubis as a pet, the breath of the demigod enveloped the entire tulip collar, changing as Perth's territory expanded, like a barrier.
Therefore, even though the Tulip Territory borders the Everfree Forest, there are still no incidents of Warcraft attacks, which also attracts some desperate homeless people to settle down.
Of course, if Perth really wants to build a city, even if Tulip Town has gradually taken the shape of a city, Tulip Town alone is still not enough.
Looking at the map, Hiss said, "If you want to build a city completely, you have to bypass a lot of farmland, then I suggest you follow the direction of the Yuxi River Stone Quarry and the Tulip Porcelain Factory." ”
"But if this happens, the surface of the acropolis will be compressed, and the castle will not be able to border the city." Listening to Nader's words, Perth said indifferently, "Then expand the area of the city, one acropolis is not enough, then two acropolis." ”
"How can that be, the city hall's funding has bottomed out!" Nader said how could that be, and almost jumped up to stop him.
"Don't worry, the Tulip Fort will lend the money to the City Hall for the future.
Besides, isn't Tulip Bank almost finished, and loans for houses and land can start pre-selling houses. ”
Hearing Perth say this, Nader instantly extinguished the fire. In fact, what's so bad about this, the prosperity of the territory will bring everything. After the last renovation of the neighborhood, Nader knew that the income from the residents' homes would go a long way in making up for the financial gap.
But the problem was not actually solved, and then Heath frowned, holding the map in his hand and drawing it, and his words were very melancholy: "If everyone enters the city or the Acropolis, where should the pasture and the horse farm to be built?" ”
A horse farm, which serves as a place to raise horses. Perth was well aware of the importance of horses in this era of knightly rule, so he took this aspect very seriously.
"Of course, according to the original plan, Tulip City will be divided into an acropolis and an inner city. The Acropolis is on both sides of the city, and the stone quarries, lumber yards, etc. are counted in the scope of the Acropolis. ”
Perth's words were undeniable, but he also reminded: "Your manor and your villa, I'm afraid there is no superfluous place at all." ”
"I've become a viscount, but I don't want to change the location of Tulip Castle, so let's expand it together."
...... It can be said that everyone has different thoughts about this round table, but they did not mention it.
Yes, Perth has become a viscount, then in addition to Keith Lanchester, who has long been a lord, there are two vacancies of lord nobles.
This caused Nader to suffer a little, and his sons and wives could not bear noble surnames except for him, which made his position in the family awkward for a while.
........
At the end of the round table, the whole tulip collar spared no effort to start a new rhythm of construction. As for the lords, they all wondered what the Acropolis was.
At least in Perth's mind, the Acropolis was probably one of the lines of defense for the territory, and it was an extension of the city's expansion by bringing together scattered villages.
But no matter what everyone thinks, at least during the reign of Perth, the tulip collar became more and more prosperous, and the people's happiness index became higher and higher.
Under the system of cash-for-work, serfs and displaced people carried out a huge road paving project, and a steady stream of stone was processed and transported out of the quarry of the Yuxi River.
The workers and the assembled residents also took an active part in the construction of the city, and there were almost no idle people in the tulip collar, and everyone was working hard for their homes.
.....
"Look, Lord Perth, although most of these stones are white, they are just ordinary stones, but there is a part of them that is very special." Bonter Heath pulling out the stones he had picked out from the scrap pile in the quarry.
Perth, riding on a heavenly horse, took the stone and looked closely, but it was irregular but dark gray and black, mixed with rust and white stones, and the mottled color made it look very ordinary. Even Perth admires how Hiss picked it out.
Perth will hand it back and ask, "What do you think?" ”
"Born in the lower tribe of the Hiss dwarves, they often smelt the iron ore rough, this stone is very similar to the iron ore rough, but this piece is more mixed, obviously there are a lot of impurities, and the iron content is also very small." Hiss turned to the stones, and laughed.
Perth was ecstatic in his heart, and said that he was indeed a lucky trend-setter. When I came out to inspect the new road that was paved around the circle, there would be such a surprise.
"You come from a dwarven tribe and have a pair of god-given eyes, can you give some advice on mining?"
Heath, apparently prepared, took out a roll of parchment and sealed the reward with both hands, and said, "Gladly to serve, my Excellency." This is just the tail end of the iron ore mines, which are concentrated on the edge of your new territory, and here is my map of the distribution, so please take a look. ”
On the drawings, not only the extension direction of the dwarf hills and ore veins of the Yuxi River is depicted in detail, but even the direction of quarrying is distinguished, and even the range of the abandoned mountain grottoes on the other side is depicted, which is very detailed.
"I'll give you a mobilization warrant, and you take it to Archon Nader. And tell him not to leak the abundance of iron ore. If someone asks, they say that they will collect and decorate the newly expanded castle, you know? Looking at the parchment roll in his hand, Perth immediately said.
"Yes, Your Excellency."
Looking at Hiss half-kneeling on the ground, Perth knew that he was a little more sophisticated and flexible than those pure-blood dwarves with tendons.
If it weren't for knowing the past of the Principality of Slan and the history of the Duchy of Stovana, and even letting Nader investigate, Perth would not have accepted it so unconditionally, or even appointed.
After some thought, Perth asked, "Mr. Bonter Heath, with your talents and some magical insights, this will give you a better place and a more honorable position." ”
"Your wisdom is praised and sung, you possess the wisdom and understanding bestowed by the gods, and your mercy and justice have turned your realm into a pure land at the foot of the sacred mountain!"
On horseback, listening to the rumors of the wandering poets in the mouth of Hiss, his calm eyes stared at him, and the brilliant and holy divine power emanated, bringing great pressure to Hiss.
In just a few seconds, the cold sweat on Hiss's back soaked his linen robe.
People always want to say that they are noble and noble, but that is often not their own voice, and Perth wants to know what Heath really wants.
"Because here, I can show my revenge, and I can get back to Stovana's surname." Eventually, Hiss said it, and there was nothing to be ashamed of.
The bulging head hung into his heart, ready to listen to the judgment of Perth.
"Not only that, I think most of your money is used to take care of the orphans of the mountain dwarves." Perth looked at him and continued, "I can promise you to pick a piece of habitat in the iron mine and use it as a dwarven village.
But you know, Tulip Collar never keeps idlers. As a condition, the dwarven tribe must provide me with armor, weapons, and tools, and even the construction of the city. ”
As the heir to the gods who inherited the wreath of Lubis, the whispers of the forest had long been told of the dwarves who had settled temporarily in Perth, the Everfree Forest near their territory.
As a ruler, since he decided to accept it, Perth must of course make the most of it.
"Thank you, Great and Merciful Lord Perth! I must...."
Interrupting Hiss's excitement and the upcoming lyrical bard, Perth hurriedly said, "Come on, go settle down when you're done, there's a lot of work to do." ”
After a long wandering life, this guy was infected with the bad habits of a wandering poet.
........
At night, the magnificent magic crystal lamps illuminate the castle hall at night.
As Perth's fortunes grew, the steward decided to abandon the candlesticks, refurbish the magic crystal lamp, and have Chuck Pan repair and use it.
On the sofa, looking at the distribution map of the ore veins that Hiss had dedicated to him, he felt a little melancholy and chagrin.
As Perth's personal butler, Ston naturally knows what is on Perth's mind. Offering a cup of hot milk tea, he suggested, "You may be able to work with your father, Count Henry." ”
Listening to Stone's words, Perth fell into deep thought, then shook his head and said in a deep voice, "It doesn't matter if you are with my father, at most it is a joint development." But within the territory, Moxie Medici had his eye on him, and there was no guarantee that he would not do anything. ”
Speaking of which, both of them understand.
At Hogworth, iron is widely used as the primary ingredient and the best material for enchantment in most armor and weapons. Many magic tools are also cast with some iron, and some even use iron as the main ingredient at all.
This has undoubtedly intensified people's demand for iron and increased its value.
Speaking of which, Old Ston also thought that if other nobles knew, no one would be humble in front of their interests, and they would even find excuses to rob them.
But Perth's next words made Old Ston a little frightened: "If King Charles III, who is in a hurry to collect war materials, will he let this mine go?" The more the merrier, no one will be so stupid. ”
What's more, on the other side of the dwarf hill, the territorial scope is not very clear, and the giant deer territory of the Viscount of Bourbon borders him. On the periphery of the mine, part of it is within the boundaries of the giant deer collar and the tulip collar.
That's why he's telling Bont Hiss to keep it a secret today, and to settle the orphans of the Hiss tribe of the mountain dwarves in the mines.
Rulers, regardless of their age, must have some means and measures to maintain their followers.
Looking at Perth's wry smile, Old Ston wanted to do his best to help the young master who had been guarding him from childhood to adulthood, so he looked at the distribution of ore veins on the table with the mentality of giving it a try.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed, "The Red Fei Elf prepared for you by Lord Count is settled in that abandoned grotto, you just need to say to the outside world that the Red Fei Elf is about to advance to the Boss Elf, which also explains why there are frequent entries, and there are even guards!" ”
"Look at me, I forgot that the Red Fei Elf is sleeping there."
