Fantasy Lords: Starting with the Pioneer Knight.

Chapter 142: Returning to the territory and being jointly targeted
As a territorial noble, the most important thing is the territory. Once the territory is lost, the noble will not only lose the source of power, but also lose the future.

It is impossible for the kingdom to give you another territory, and it is also difficult to obtain another territory.

For pioneer lords, if they want to advance to the nobility, they need not only merit, but also territory.

One hundred meritorious deeds can earn you the title of Baron of the Kingdom.

But that's when you own the territory.

Once you lose your territory, let alone one hundred points of merit, even if you have ten thousand points of merit, it will be difficult to obtain the status of a territorial noble. At most, you will only be a palace noble.

Not every lord could accept such a result.

So if there is even a slight possibility, they will not give up.

But this may not necessarily be an opportunity.

Divine revelation is about to begin.

Even if the kingdom can stop it.

It can even nip losses in the bud.

But these nobles on the front lines may not be affected.

Of course this has nothing to do with Thor.

After understanding the general situation.

Early the next morning, his figure headed back toward the eagle.

Seven days passed quickly.

Bon Voyage.

Thor finally returned to the Eagle Territory after almost four months.

The entire Eagle Territory has undoubtedly undergone great changes compared to before he left. The most obvious point is that the size of the entire Eagle Territory has almost doubled.

More farmland was cultivated.

The wheat seedlings sprouted new sprouts one after another.

The canal dug by the goblins passed through the wheat field.

In the farmland, the busy figures couldn't help but smile.

Thor's arrival attracted the attention of many people.

But soon they recognized the Lord.

"grown ups!"

"grown ups!"

"Owner!"

"Owner!"

Voices sounded one after another, and slaves, free people, and knights all saluted respectfully along the way. The figures from Frosty Moon Province following Thor followed, looking at this scene with shock. .

Even though they had heard about the appearance of the Eagle Leader, they were still shocked when it actually appeared in front of them.

This is not the bitter cold place they imagined.

The development here even gives them a feeling that is not inferior to Shuangyue Province.

Thor's reputation as a lord has reached an unprecedented level.

"Is this the Eagle Territory?"

Among the three pharmacists, Entos muttered to himself.

"Sir, this is amazing!"

Christie couldn't help but speak.

At this moment, there was another change in the way they looked at Thor.

Of course, it's not just them, even the famous knight assigned to him by Count Engel again, as well as the affairs officers, are all the same.

Even Marshall looked a little shocked.

His eyes kept looking at the entire territory, and then focused on Thor.

And while everyone was shocked.

In the distance, a group of people had appeared outside the town.

The leaders were Ren and Steve.

Watching Thor and others approach.

Ren and Steve quickly ran over.

"grown ups!"

Ren and Steve spoke respectfully.

"well done!"

“It’s hard work these days!”

Thor smiled and nodded.

He was extremely satisfied with his two subordinates.

During the time he left, Steve handled the entire Eagle Territory pretty well. Although there were some problems, the overall situation was pretty good.

Renn also did well in business.

And looked at the two people.

Some of the people brought behind by Thor looked a little shocked.

The auras of both of them were that of great knights.

They couldn't help but look at Peros again.

Some knights couldn't help but get a little excited.

Three great knights.

Including Master Thor, those are four great knights.

The ability to open up territory in this way can be said to be extremely gorgeous.

They don't seem to have to worry about the future at all.

Compared to their excitement, Marshall looked shocked again.

Ren, he knew that Thor had brought him back from the small town more than a year ago. In less than two years, this one had actually reached the rank of Great Knight.

How long did it take for him to step into the Great Knight before.

Ten years, fifteen years, or longer.

Marshall couldn't remember exactly, except that it took a long time.

Of course, at this moment, Thor ignored the shock and impact of bringing these people to him.

Ren, and Steve didn't care either.

"Sir, you are exaggerating!"

Hearing Thor's praise, the two anxious people couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and then Ren, and Steve couldn't help but speak.

"Let's go back first!"

"Steve, please sort out the affairs in the territory during this period and give it to me later."

Thor shook his head and did not continue to dwell on this, but spoke softly and gave instructions.

"Sir, we are ready!"

"You can always look it up."

Steve nodded and immediately led Thor towards the town.

Then the group stepped into Eagle Town.

At this moment, compared to before, Eagle Town can really be regarded as a small town.

The number of residents in the town gradually increased.

The past four months.

After asking Thor for instructions, Steve went to Loren City again and purchased three thousand slaves.

Now the size of the town has reached close to ten thousand people. With several clearings of the surrounding area and Thor's deliberate instructions, the number of free people has increased, making it naturally more prosperous.

And even if they haven't seen each other for four months, when Thor appears, the figures still greet him with excitement and flushing.

Thor nodded.

Everyone quickly walked into the castle.

In the castle.

The banquet has already started. After a sumptuous dinner.

The figures following Thor became more and more settled.

Because at this moment, the Eagle Leader no longer needs anything to calm people's hearts. The Eagle Leader itself is the place where people feel most at ease.

In the study room.

Steve, and Ren reunited.

Thor sat at the desk.

Looking through the relevant information that Steve compiled and sent.

No one spoke.

Steve, and Wren both waited in nervous silence.

And time also passes in this minute and second.

Half an hour later.

After Thor finished flipping through all the documents in front of him, he stopped and frowned slightly.

It's not because he is dissatisfied with the development of the Eagles.

The entire Eagle Territory, whether it was what he saw or what was described in these documents, made him extremely satisfied.

So far, there are already two small towns, and a third town is under construction.

The population has reached nearly 15,000 people, of which 1,000 are freedmen.

The extraordinary strength has also been improved a lot.

Before he left, there were only forty-three formal knights and one hundred and thirty-two trainee knights in the entire Eagle Territory.

But in just four months, the number of formal knights has increased from forty-three to forty-five, an increase of two more, and the number of trainee knights has increased even more. After four months, a large amount of resources have been tilted, reaching Now the number of trainee knights has increased from one hundred and thirty-two to one hundred and fifty-one, an increase of nineteen people.

This is undoubtedly a terrifying value.

If coupled with what Count Engel gave this time.

The number of his official knights reached sixty-five in one fell swoop, and the number of trainee knights exceeded two hundred. His strength has undoubtedly been greatly improved.

Even in the western region, he is qualified to occupy a section of the Danube River.

If Marshall is taken into account, he can even occupy the Danube River where a large nau is produced.

At the same time, in addition to these, the food production of the Eagle Territory has also been greatly improved. Even if the population increases and there are thousands of goblins, he can still meet the needs of the territory.

And this was before. Once the newly cultivated farmland is harvested, there will even be a large surplus of food.

Not to mention the annual trade gains.

After four months, his harvest officially exceeded five thousand gold coins.

This is without opening up the supply of silver armor. Once it is opened, it is not impossible to double the income.

All this undoubtedly means that the entire Eagle Territory has undoubtedly truly passed the initial pioneering period and it is time to start reaping the rewards.

What made Thor frown was the development of the Eagle Chamber of Commerce.

That's right, it's the Eagle Chamber of Commerce.

The Chamber of Commerce has indeed brought about vigorous development.

The income has indeed increased a lot. Thor accounted for 50% of the income and reached 5,000 gold coins. The entire Eagle Chamber of Commerce's income in the past four months has reached 10,000 gold coins.

This is 10,000 gold coins, and many earls only have this much income.

The Eagle Chamber of Commerce's revenue reached 10,000 gold coins in just four months.

Based on this situation, the annual income can definitely reach 30,000 gold coins.

This is undoubtedly a terrifying value.

However, Thor could also feel something was wrong with this value.

That is, the revenue of the Eagle Chamber of Commerce stopped growing a month ago, and even declined slightly this month.

In theory this is impossible to happen.

In Thor's way of commerce.

The income of the Eagle Chamber of Commerce will continue to grow in a snowballing manner, and will eventually stop when it reaches a saturation stage.

What is saturation.

Thor didn't know.

It's definitely more than 30,000 gold coins.

Marquis Lehman was only a city in Loren, and his annual gold coin income was more than hundreds of thousands.

Not to mention other things, it is impossible for the dilapidated north alone to only have so few gold coins at the moment.

How is it possible that thirty thousand is enough?

Then there must be a problem.

"Ren, what happened to the Eagle Chamber of Commerce?"

Thor put down the document in his hand and looked at Ren.

Lajos is currently absent, and the person who has the most contact with the Chamber of Commerce is Renn. He also believes that Renn will give him a corresponding reason.

"Sir, this!"

Ren spoke subconsciously, but he didn't know where to start.

"what happened?"

Seeing Ren's hesitant gaze, Thor couldn't help but condense.

"Sir, the situation is a bit complicated!"

Steve spoke, with a solemn look on his face.

"Oh?"

Thor couldn't help but look at Steve.

"Sir, the Chamber of Commerce's operations went smoothly at first, and they even quickly established a large channel in the west. Lord Lajos managed to connect more than 40 pioneering lords in just a few months."

"Before last month, it expanded to sixty-seven pioneer lords, but this also attracted the attention of those in the west. Since last month, they have interfered, blocked, and even attacked our Chamber of Commerce. "

"Yes, sir, they even ambushed one of our caravans just last week. Although there were no personnel losses, the material losses were considerable. What's more important is that they started to set up checkpoints. We must pay high taxes if we pass. The expansion of the Chamber of Commerce is also becoming more and more difficult.”

Steve spoke softly and slowly narrated the entire situation, with Ren also supplementing beside him.

Listen to the words of the two people.

Thor finally understood what was going on.

Obviously, the emergence of the Eagle Chamber of Commerce directly touched the interests of the powerful noble lords in the west.

As powerful nobles, most of the entire west, or the entire northern province, are their leeks.

Marquis Lehman was aloof and only controlled the slave trade. As for other restrictions, he was not so strict.

In this case, this piece of cake was naturally targeted by some powerful noble lords.

They have enough resources and sufficient strength.

Enough to keep harvesting.

But the emergence of the Eagle Chamber of Commerce broke this agreement.

The leeks that they thought were growing in their own garden were cut.

These people are crazy if they don't get angry.

Thor even suspected that the biggest reason why the other party did not directly physically destroy the Eagle Chamber of Commerce was the threat from the Dressrosa family.

As a famous pioneering knight family.

In the Northland Province, the Dressrosa family owned not only Tono and Thor, but also many others.

The combined strength is not weak.

Maybe it was because of this that they didn't dare to kill him.

Can block, interfere.

Even disgusting them is inevitable.

Special level this move.

Thor had seen this before in Frostmoon Province.

This is true in places where the system of Frost Moon Province is almost perfect. In the Northland Province, the effect is even more unimaginable.

Because in the Frost Moon Province, you need to worry about depleting the lake for fishing, but in the Northland Province, you don’t need to worry about this.

Moreover, it is only the Eagle Chamber of Commerce that is restricted, so there is no need to worry at all.
