"The taste of this bean curd is so special, salty and fresh" At dinner in the evening, the centaur girl Kaye deliberately ate a small bite of the bean curd, and the unique taste and texture seemed to open a new door.

"You can have porridge for a better taste, or roasted naan." Rand wants to find more special products for his territory, whether it is non-staple food or light industry, so that the people can have something to do and live a richer life.

"By the way, Master Ben Kaul should be here tomorrow, right?" Rand asked.

"Yes, my lord, the courier who arrived today said that Master Ben Kaul has arrived at Post Station 2 East, and will be there at noon tomorrow." Pete Maned Wolf next to him quickly answered as soon as he heard Rand's inquiry.

Rand numbered all the post stations around Night Qi City, and the closest post station to Night Qi City according to the direction was Station 1.

In the direction of Roth is South 1 and South 2, and in the direction of Salt Mine is East 1 and East 2, and Ben Kaul's arrival at East 2 indicates that he is only 80 kilometers away from Yeqi.

Every morning and night, Qicheng sends an express delivery to the east and south, and the letters are relayed at the fastest speed between the post stations, and in the afternoon, the two places send back an express delivery to Yeqicheng to ensure that the rand can grasp the latest situation in the two places.

"My lord, we don't have much gold, and we don't have more than 23,000 gold coins in our account at the moment." Rand managed to spend half of the gold coins in two months, most of which were magic goblins, space rings, monster meat, food, building materials, retired equipment, ships and clothes.

The 5 Space Rings and 7 Magic Elves and Kaye alone accounted for 16,000, and Rand was able to leave 25,000 or successively delivered nearly 60 black-scaled horses and 50 sets of iron armor, and then recovered the balance of 8,000 gold coins.

At the same time, Rand still owes at least 20 black-scaled horses and 30 sets of iron armor, which need to be brought to the royal capital by the Blue Dragon family and delivered to the relevant families this time.

As for the more than 2,000 gold coins earned by the various alchemy equipment made by Wendy and others, they were left in the royal capital and the chamber of commerce in Mane Wolf City as a liquidity fund.

Now the Rand needs to buy magic grains, potions, and grain from the two cities on a regular basis, and the cost of imports is much higher than the export profit of salt.

"You have asked for a power boiler room to be set up in the north of the city, in the south of the city, in the magic workshop, in the east of the city, in the royal palace, and in the castle of Roth." Makoto held the territorial construction plan in one hand and the bill in the other, frowning.

"We still have 3 scrap equipment waiting to be paid, and we have to prepare 1,000 gold coins for these, and we also need to buy some city defense equipment, bed crossbows, trebuchets, which is also a lot of money. In addition, you also need to order about 100 pull horses and about 100 ordinary war horses, which will cost about 5,000 gold coins. ”

Rand put down the knife and fork in his hand, and listened to Zhenqin's account, and the food was not fragrant.

"I'll figure it out as soon as possible," Rand sighed, now that the territory is in ruins, the black-scaled horses can't sell any more horses after paying 20 horses, and the Knights' mounts and horses must be guaranteed to reproduce.

Rand bought war horses and horses, hoping to liberate the black-scaled horses used for express delivery and cart pulling in the post station.

"My lord, according to your planning requirements, we still need at least 1,000 people in the salt mine, Yeqidong Industrial Zone, and the workshop area in the east of the city." After Zhenqin reported the lack of money in the territory, it was time for Lanya to report the lack of people.

"And now in the palace these ... skills, how many more than 200 people will be needed to develop into an industry" Lannia finished eating, and also took out a stack of forms, these are the list of the lords.

"Most of the demonless people who have newly defected to several tribes are barbarians north of the Benma River or west of the Luoyue River, and the proportion of human slaves in their tribes is very small, and even fewer can be replenished to the workshop."

The barbarians in the north of the Galloping Horse River do not have such industrial integration as the gray goose tribe, and the demand for the human race is very small.

"In terms of population, the Dugan and Joyasen families in the royal capital will move a wave of leaders to their post station, and they can save me 100 people, and the rest will have to find a way." Rand's voice became quieter and quieter, and in the end, he didn't even believe that there was any way to make 1,000 people out.

"Or..." Rand suddenly looked up, "How about I sell some antiques from the palace for money, and then recruit workers from the imperial capital?" ”

。。。 The whole restaurant was frozen in embarrassment, and Makoto and Lannia directly pretended not to hear.

Nila's eyes widened and her lips pursed, an expression that she couldn't bear to say if she wanted to, and she couldn't bear to point out that Rand was not a small child.

"Why don't you react at all, I don't want to dig up the royal tomb, we can mortgage the jade carving in the staircase hall to the merchants of the imperial capital first."

"My lord? Don't you Queen Padmila come to you from the net? In the end, the little cardinal, who was plucked by the fairy queen herself, took the lead in asking, "I feel that she cares about these things." ”

"Yes, my lord," Pete Maned Wolf added cautiously, "the things in the palace cannot be sold casually, no one in the imperial capital dares to accept them, and more importantly, the Holy Supreme Council has not yet recognized your right to rule Night Qicheng." ”

"Well, that's right, after all, it's an ancestral thing, and you can't just sell it." Rand thought for a moment, "You guys will explore again in the next two days, since the treasure can't be sold, see if there is a vault, even if it's a scrap metal pile." "Rand hopes that the ancestor of the Galloping Horse family will leave him something that he can use.

。。。。

There will always be one or two things that are lacking in population, money and food, and if there is no shortage at any day, it means that the development of the territory has reached a bottleneck.

On the 10th, there were fewer things to do in the rand, and in the morning I went to the south of the city to see the construction of the grain warehouse and the mill, and the south of the city was going to build a field, and the supporting facilities were completed before the ploughing.

In the afternoon, before Ben Kaul returned, he explored the underground area of the palace.

"It's also a magical world, and what I do every day is school, blind dates, and product development." Stroking the magic circle on the wall of the underground hall, he said to himself, "That's how you can really feel magic." ”

After entering the second layer of the underground ruins, he could only barely make out the direction through the glow of the various magic circles on the walls and the ground, and Rand re-searched for the various rooms mentioned by the Queen of the Former Heaven according to his memory, such as the training room with the training circle in the third underground floor, the teleportation hall that used to communicate between the royal palace and the imperial capital, and the rescue room that functions like a hospital. As well as an emergency communication room with a similar function to the salt mine, the nameplate of [Emergency Communication Room] marked by the hometown text was also found in the rand outside the door.

Without exception, the doors of all these functional rooms were closed, because of the magic opening and closing itself, Rand didn't even find a keyhole, and the only one who could enter was the magic furnace room in the center of the third floor.

Contrary to what Rand imagined, although the magic furnace on the third floor of the ruins was much thicker than the one in the salt mine, it was about the same height, and it felt that the power of the two should be about the same.
