Being a lord in another world begins with farming

Chapter 143 Development of the Territory

Wearing black and heavy bull-headed armor, holding double halberds like a giant crescent axe, wherever he goes, the fierce aura is released like ghosts and gods, making people's liver tremble and legs tremble when they see it, even if Owen sees it at first glance I shuddered when I saw it.

Because of the activation of muscles, bones, skin and flesh, and the cultivation of the golden bell, Charles's overexpanded muscles and bones have calmed down, and his height has returned to 1.9 meters, and he has returned to the appearance of a black, long, straight beauty. It can be seen that not only has she restored her original appearance, but she has also improved a lot. This made Owen suddenly have a little idea. After all, his physique has improved a lot. In theory, the speed of blood flow can be transformed For equivalent hardness.

But it's gone now, it's even more terrifying from a devil terminator to a vicious ghost, okay?

In order to appease the frightened darling, Owen briefly explained and ran to find Dale.

Compared with Maya, who sometimes treats him as a pastime during the office, Dale, a soft and plump lady who is proficient in transfiguration and can satisfy all your fantasies, can soothe Owen's wounded heart.

After half a pot of tea, Owen, who was still holding hot soup, was a little skeptical about life now. His body became stronger and his waist became more energetic, but he never expected that the T virus would transform his nervous system , which made his thinking more agile, his reaction faster, and more...sensitive.

"Damn it~" Owen took a sip of the soup that was still hot, wondering when he would be able to stand up and conquer the two epic peaks of Emile and Bella.

Although there is everything in the dream, Owen did not go to the dream to find balance, but went to the center of the town. After all, he couldn't stop doing business all day long.

During this period of time, Owen was obsessed with creating his own legendary warrior, but the development of the territory did not stop because of Maya.

As the fame spreads wider and wider, the territory welcomes more outsiders.

Adventurers are diverted to Greenshade Town, where these most unstable factors are kept in captivity.

Merchants, gold diggers, and pioneers chose to stay in Akita because they saw an opportunity here.

More and more shops appeared on the main street, which was the local investment of businessmen who saw business opportunities. After all, the Hai Rui Chamber of Commerce was not the only smart person.

The restless gold diggers went out in groups of three or four to find the wealth left in the northern wilderness, such as gold gems or other things, and they would eventually gain something, but soon the windfall would be lost in the tavern.

The hotel is still the only place where outsiders can live, but it allows businessmen to open taverns, where there is not only alcohol, but gambling and women are the most effective means to consume the wealth in the hands of those lucky people.

Regarding these, the territory will not interfere. As long as the taxes are paid on time and the laws of the territory are not violated, outsiders can also enjoy many benefits of the territory, such as a safe environment and a comfortable bathhouse.

Ambitious pioneers regard this place as the place where their dreams set sail, because they can buy relatively cheap food, tools, and even weapons in the territory. Except for the population, here is everything the pioneers need.

The most important thing is close enough that there is no need to buy from the distant imperial borders at all.

So it didn't take long for a lot of farms to be developed near Akita Town, but some of them chose to be within the scope of Hydera's territory, and some chose to stay away.

The former needs to pay taxes to the territory and perform hard labor, but can obtain the asylum of the territory.

Powerful patrolling cavalry is not available in every territory, and the sense of security brought by it makes taxpayers not complain too much, not to mention that it is so close to Akita Town, whether it is daily life, buying supplies, or selling crops, it is very important. convenient.

Ambitious people are not like this. They will choose a place a day or two away from Akita Town as their development point. Although it will be troublesome to buy supplies, they have a sense of safety and independence.

Of course, they are also very clear that this feeling is completely false, all they need is a cavalry squad, and their territory and their ambitions will all be reduced to ashes.

Fortunately, neither Owen nor Maya had any interest in these people at all, and let them develop. After all, you can eat the grass in front of your house whenever you want.

Because of the assimilation ability of the town center, the outsiders who settled here quickly relaxed their vigilance, and after a little more recognition, they began to transform into real territorial residents one after another. Owen found that the territory now has an additional population of 200 , and the number is rising steadily, and the ratio of civilians to citizens is not low, which makes him very happy.

In fact, this is not surprising. Except for the serfs who were trafficked, most of the merchants and pioneers who came to the Northland had certain abilities and talents. Otherwise, it would be impossible to come here alive. Therefore, it is normal to be evaluated as civilians and citizens.

Just because of this, after granting serfs the status of peasants, Owen asked Maya to carry out propaganda again, and they could grant the status of civilians and citizens of the territory.

Especially the latter is the most attractive, because although citizens are not titles, they have the qualifications to be officials, such as tax envoys and clerks.

Even if it is just the most basic manager, it is still a leap forward in identity. Not many people can resist this temptation. Even many pioneers who choose to work outside the territory choose to move here with their families.

Another benefit is that outsiders' recognition of the territory has greatly increased, which has made the silent assimilation of the territory smoother, and the population of the territory has also increased again.

Owen, who was very satisfied with this, once again appointed a group of basic managers and grass-roots officers to help Maya and Howard, and strengthened his rule over the foundation of the territory.

The sand table Owen made casually was perfected by Maya and Howard. When he saw it again, he knew the situation of the territory at a glance.

With Akita Town as the center, the pioneer farms scattered around are not messy. On the contrary, the layout is very particular. Even Owen can see that with the increase of population, these future villages will be one by one.

The plan on the side also plans to build more roads in the future to revitalize the entire territory, and there is even a main road connecting Mara Town.

Although according to the standard, the road to be built is not an expensive stone road, and the resources and manpower consumed are still not a small number, but the benefits are also obvious.

As long as the road construction is completed, the territory will be connected into one piece, and the tentacles extending from the border of the empire to the north will not be able to escape the shackles of the territory, unless they are willing to spend more energy and time on the road.

With the development speed of the territory, these plans came naturally, and with Maya in control of the overall situation, Owen shifted his attention to other aspects, such as the black hands who agreed to cooperate and the adventurers guild who came on their own initiative.
