The currency system of Haaland's realm is the same as that of the Kingdom of Grant, which is based on gold and magic crystals.

The gold coins in the Dawn Plane are all smelted from gold and magic crystal powder, which can be used to arrange magic arrays, which is a precious resource in itself.

This kind of coin is not the same as the credit currency of the state as an anchor.

The deficit cannot be solved by printing money.

Moreover, the right to mint money is a right that the Grant royal family is very concerned about, and only the great nobles above the earl level can obtain a limited right to mint money.

In order to issue banknotes with national credibility, it is necessary to first overthrow the Kingdom of Grant and formulate new rules of the game.

Although the Haaland family has developed rapidly, compared with the Grant Kingdom, its strength is far from enough, so it is naturally impossible to challenge the currency rules set by the royal family.

Therefore, avoiding deficits is the most important task of the financial sector.

Because of the heavy pressure of military spending, Richard could not afford to invest in industry and education this year.

Even the profits brought by primary industry were all siphoned off by him.

The annual cash income of more than 30,000 yuan, at the end of the year, can only balance more than 1,000 gold coins.

Although there is still no cash flow, this year Haaland's territory has reclaimed 60,000 acres of farmland, including newborns, an increase of 17,000 people.

Population is the most important resource of a territory, and if this year's harvest is exchanged for gold coins, the fixed property of Haaland's territory has increased by about 200,000 gold coins.

If you can keep the territory, the population and farmland can be regarded as wealth, and if you can't hold the territory, these fixed properties will only be destroyed and robbed by the orcs.

In Vicburg, it was getting late, and Ruiz finished his work and walked home without looking back.

Ruiz has been migrating to Vicburg for a year, and he is a spy planted by Viscount Cisse into Haaland's domain.

In the past year, he has sent out a lot of public information, but the results do not meet Vesta requirements.

Vesta asks Ruiz to infiltrate key sectors to gain more important intelligence.

But Ruiz found it difficult to fulfill.

The system of Haaland's territory is that it does not trust outsiders. The edict prohibiting random movement in the realm almost confined Ruiz to the vicinity of Fort Vic.

Many of their colleagues ventured deep into Haaland's territory in order to find more covert information, but all of them disappeared without exception.

The lesson of blood made Ruiz know in his heart that if he was not careful, he would be doomed.

Ruiz has a special talent, he is one in ten thousand lucky people, and he has awakened a transcendent visual talent. His eyesight is ten times better than that of the average person.

For this reason, Ruiz was chosen by Vesta to become a spy cultivated by the Cisse family.

Ruiz returned home and his wife had already prepared the food.

The staple of dinner was wheat rice with a salted fish.

Although there is a watermill two kilometers away from Vicburg, wheat can be ground into flour and flour can be used to make more elaborate food. The bran left over from grinding can also be used to feed livestock.

But poor families are still reluctant to pay the extra money, and they can't afford to eat flour or raise livestock.

After Ruiz entered the territory, in order not to arouse suspicion, he married a slave girl as his wife.

His wife had three more years to become a freedman.

The work of indentured slaves was very hard, and Ruiz's wife had to work in the fields when she was busy with the farm, and she had to go to the quilt factory to sew and mend when the farm was not working.

Indentured slaves did not receive any salary and lived mostly in commune.

A female indentured slave who started a family would have 400 catties of grain, 10 catties of salt, 3 catties of brown sugar, and a set of clothes a year.

Male indentured slaves would be given an extra 100 catties of grain and 2 catties of liquor per month.

Such a meager treatment made it difficult for indentured slaves to get married and support their families.

However, most of the slaves purchased in Haaland's territory had complete families, and the strong male slaves almost always dragged their families with them.

The elderly, children, slaves, the territory will have subsidies, and the food distributed can ensure that they will not starve to death.

Single young adult slaves are very rare in Haaland's territory.

Ruiz was a freedman who had moved from other realms, and when he arrived in Haaland's territory, he quickly came to the fore because of his special talent.

He started with his extraordinary eyesight. He was selected into the Auxiliary Squadron as an observer and positioned the heavy trebuchet.

Then he was selected by the territory and joined a secret research group.

The task of this group is to make telescopes, microscopes.

Since the territory was able to produce transparent glass, the group began to work on the manufacture of telescopes.

However, the grinding of glass requires a lot of experience, and the mirror grinder needs to have a good grinding technique.

None of these Haaland territories.

Although it took more than three years to build a simple telescope and accumulate some experience and technology, it is still a long way from making a microscope.

Ruiz's extraordinary vision was discovered by Haaland's territory, so he was placed in the microscope manufacturing team.

After entering the group, Ruiz quickly played a role, his super vision can observe the subtle differences of the glass mirror, coupled with hard work, relying on special talent, he actually became the best mirror sharpener in the microscope manufacturing team, and his salary has also increased to about eight silver coins.

It was because of his high-paying job that Ruiz was able to get married and start a family.

Ruiz had just fallen asleep after eating, when he suddenly felt a strong pain in his abdomen, which made him even scream.

The wife heard the commotion, woke up, and asked anxiously, "Ruiz, how are you?" ”

"I asked you to buy flour, but you didn't listen, maybe you had a bad stomach."

Because of the severe abdominal pain, Ruiz turned pale and said intermittently.

Ruiz's abdominal pain was so severe that his wife had to get up overnight to go to the city lord's mansion to find a doctor.

Since the three magic apprentices learned to treat minor injuries, the hospital in Haaland's domain has roughly doubled in size.

Normally, there are four magic apprentice doctors in the territory.

Except for Adrian at the hospital headquarters, the remaining three magic apprentice doctors all followed the medical team and undertook certain medical tasks in the countryside.

Medical treatment to the countryside was Richard's requirement, not only to treat patients, but also to accumulate experience and improve medical skills.

Recently, the medical team came to Vikburg.

To create a sensational effect, they also openly demonstrated the operation, cutting the belly of a soldier and performing an operation to remove the appendix.

It was because of this scene that Ruiz's wife decided to go to the doctor for help.

The medical team is led by Wendy, plus doctors and nurses, a total of about ten people. In addition to treating the sick and saving people, Wendy also had to test the medical usefulness of the new spell of ultrasound detection.

Ruiz's wife was barricaded out of the City Lord's Mansion and quarreled with the guards, alarming Griffin, the doctor on duty.

Griffin heard Ruiz's wife's story, probably judged that it was acute appendicitis, and decided to send someone to take Ruiz to the city lord's mansion for surgery.

In recent days, I have been suffering from insomnia, I can only sleep three or four hours a day, I am seeing a Chinese medicine, there is no code word, what is consumed is the manuscript, and I can only update 4,000 words.
