Being a lord in another world begins with farming

Chapter 17 Start a new game
Now that it is snowing heavily and the sky is freezing, Owen can't make any big moves. After all, going out in this weather is simply looking for death, so it is impossible for a large number of people and supplies to come to the door, otherwise it will insult Maya's IQ.

It just so happens that he can take a good rest, and at the same time summarize the achievements he has made during this period, and make a draft for the next development. After all, no matter how bad the plan is, it is still a plan, and he can’t stop doing it because of repeated revisions. At least he has made a plan. There will be a general direction in it, even if you modify it, you will know how to modify it.

In fact, the planning is not difficult to do. Now there are only a few hundred people in the territory, and everything is missing. All he has to do is to fill in that part of the vacancy first.

But because he lacks everything, he often digresses while he is doing it. There is nothing Owen can do about it, because the territory is too poor. He is like carrying a bag of cement to build a house, and there is not enough there. use.

Fortunately, his efforts were not in vain. This year's serfs in the territory will not freeze to death too many people because of the construction of the village. This is a good thing. I will buy some serfs before the spring of next year, so that there will be more manpower. After all, no matter how big the territory is , no one can do it.

With sufficient manpower, learn more advanced farming techniques under the leadership of system farmers, and match them with metal farm tools produced by blacksmiths. If there is no accident, the territory will usher in a bumper harvest next year. If this is the case, it needs to be prepared in advance. Prepare for war.

In the northern border, a good harvest is not necessarily a good thing, because it will attract many robbers, they will take everything away, and don't expect them to leave rations or even seeds, which is why the northern border has never been developed. , because there are too many robbers, many times your neighbors are the most dangerous, they will send you to hell, otherwise Owen would not bury his head in farming, why would he accumulate soldiers.

But right now Owen is not afraid, because by next year's autumn harvest, the strength of the territory will at least double, enough to protect his wealth.

Now the number of soldiers in the territory is quite considerable, with twenty swordsmen, twenty infantry archers, eight native soldiers with spears and twelve spearmen, four scout cavalry, and ten cuirassiers. Without knights, the fighting power has been compared to the peak period of Hydera I.

This military power is enough to take down any baron's territory on the northern border, even a viscount would be on the verge of a big enemy. It is a strength that Owen is proud of.

But the price is that more than 100 progress points are gone, which is his accumulation for nearly three months.

At the same time, dozens of craftsmen and farmers, a large number of materials, and dozens of progress points.

There is also the wooden village in the Demon Horn Forest, where twenty farmers, ten long swordsmen, ten crossbowmen, and four scouts are currently stationed there. Ten point progress value.

If it wasn't for the faster and faster recovery speed after the upper limit of the progress value reached [-], he wouldn't be able to accumulate such a large amount at all.

It can be said that Owen's accumulation for the past six months is all here, and this is also the capital for him to survive the winter with peace of mind.

However, Maodong’s progress value during this period is a waste if not used, so Owen wants to find a reasonable direction to use it.

With something on his mind, Owen decided not to stay in bed today. Although the cold wind was still howling outside the closed windows, he still opened his eyes with great perseverance, but it was still very cold.

The entire castle is just a stone, so there is no insulation effect. Owen first had the doors and windows repaired when he could, so that at least he would not hear the wind blowing in through the wide gaps, taking away the small amount of heat.

As a lord, Owen's conditions are naturally better. Not only are the doors and windows tightly closed, but also thick curtains to block the cold air. There is also a fireplace facing the gorgeous big bed, which finally keeps the indoor temperature at a tolerable level.

In fact, Owen is hypocritical. Compared with those serfs shivering in the cold wind, he is living in paradise.

It's just that it's easy to change from frugality to extravagance, and get used to a better and better life, so naturally I can't bear the hardship.

Pulling the rope on the side, the bell next door rang, and Maya, who was already prepared, walked in.

First add two pieces of dry firewood to the fireplace to increase the temperature of the room, then pick up the copper kettle on the side, the water temperature inside is just right, pour it into the copper basin to facilitate Owen to wash his face and brush his teeth.

After washing and changing clothes, Charles brought breakfast.

Hot oatmeal, freshly baked bread, bacon and fried eggs, this is Owen's breakfast.

After breakfast, Owen moved his hands and feet indoors, did a set of radio gymnastics, and went to the study alone after his body warmed up.

After closing the door, Owen took out a stack of parchment from the secret compartment. These are the contents of the game he sorted out, mainly about horse riding and blade and the age of empires, from arms, buildings to resources, all sorted out in the book, because the game content used It's Chinese characters, but I'm not afraid of being seen. Even with the magic of knowing the language, it's hard to see what's wrong.

These two games provided Owen with a large number of options for arms, buildings, and resources. If you simply want to be a lord, these two games are enough, but the problem is that this world is not simple.

Owen learned from Maya that there are extraordinary powers in this world, such as grudges, magic, miracles, orcs, elves, and demons, all of which exist.

As for why he has never seen it, the reason is very simple. Engineers and programmers can only be regarded as ordinary occupations in big cities, which are very common, but will they go to remote mountain villages without electricity to find work?

The northern border is the edge of the edge, not even the countryside of the empire. How could people with extraordinary power come here.

But Owen felt that he had to guard against it. After all, he had a system by his side, and a mere border lord was definitely not his upper limit. In other words, it would be a matter of time before he attracted extraordinary power, so he planned to make some preparations in advance.

When the progress value is ten points, most of the open games do not involve supernatural power. Although the monks and holy relics in the empire era involve supernatural power, the progress value of exchange is more than ten points.

After the progress value reached [-] points, the Transcendent Domain was initially launched to Owen.

The problem is that he doesn't like the low-end extraordinary power, and he can't afford to exchange for the high-end ones, so although it has been a while, Owen still hasn't chosen.

Things like Heroes Invincible, Warcraft, Diablo, etc. don’t even think about it now. First, the setting background is too grand, and second, the upper limit of power is too high. They have already reached the realm of gods, which is not the current progress at all. The value can be turned on, only those games with some mysterious elements, but the upper limit is not high.

For example, Super Farm, Plants vs. Zombies, Reconstruction of the Dungeon, and Puppet Master. These four are new games that Owen has painstakingly selected during this period. Each has its own characteristics, but the upper limit is not high.
