Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game

Monster smiled, clearly prepared for the question.

"Your Highness, the cement magic potion isn't difficult to concoct. Any magic apprentice can make it with a basic understanding of magic. In fact, it's easier to make than fertilizer potions, so even apprentices in other professions can manage it."

"As for cost, while magic potions are more expensive than ordinary materials, they last longer and save a lot of manpower and time during production. In the long run, using magic potions to produce cement isn't more expensive than traditional methods."

Solon listened, calculating in his mind.

If the cement magic potion could be supplied steadily, it would undoubtedly be a good source of income for many professional apprentices.

With increased income, they would have more energy to devote to cultivation, learning new skills, and purchasing cultivation resources.

This would indirectly boost the spending power of a group, forming a virtuous cycle.

If more of these apprentices could become formal professionals, it would also improve the overall strength of the empire.

Solon looked at Steward Monster, liking him more and more. He even considered taking him to the Northwest, but considering that Wink Manor was now his magical research base and needed him to personally oversee it, he ultimately abandoned the idea.

Solon made a decisive decision, saying, "Monster, I'll give you a warrant. If you need more manpower,

you can go to my second uncle and have him allocate it to you. But I have only one requirement: loyalty."

He wanted to continue expanding the scale of Wink Manor's scientific research to ensure that this research base could provide a continuous stream of innovation and power for the empire's development.

Monster was Solon's trusted steward, and his ability and loyalty were impeccable, so Solon was willing to give him more power and support.

"Thank you, Your Highness. The current manpower is sufficient for now. I wonder if Your Highness needs anything else from this old man," Monster asked, his eyes gleaming with passion and anticipation for research.

The successful development of cement had completely captivated Monster, making him fall in love with this research life. He realized that research was not just to satisfy curiosity, but to realize greater value.

After thinking for a moment, Solon wrote a set of research topics similar to materials technology,

The development of new materials is crucial for industrial progress, such as high-performance metals, alloys, composite materials, etc.

Monster happily accepted the task, knowing that this would be his new challenge and his new career.

Before leaving, Solon specifically left ten vials of strong magic potion for Monster.

'Research is important, but cultivation is also important. Only by having a longer lifespan can you do more research. These ten potions will help your cultivation. Use them first, and I'll see if I can bring you more when I come back next time.'

Monster hadn't paid much attention to it at first, but when he picked up the strong magic potions, he was stunned.

Then, he respectfully put them away.

The pure magic power made him realize that these potions would be a huge help for cultivation.

The reason Solon didn't teach him the Aurora Breathing Technique was simple. Monster was loyal to the entire royal family, not just him.

Once he obtained the Aurora Breathing Technique, he would definitely send it to the palace for the emperor. At that time, he would offend both sides.

As for the strong magic potions, even if he was willing to send them in, Solon could explain that he obtained them from the maze and awarded them to Monster for the development of cement.

Then, he could just pretend to know nothing and say that he wasn't sure about the effects of the strong magic potions.

After all, he was just a fifth-tier small knight, and it was normal that he couldn't feel the effects of the strong magic potions.

When Solon returned to the Northwest, the entire Northwest was in an uproar.

Many garrison soldiers thought that His Highness the Crown Prince would not return, and their hearts were filled with disappointment and regret.

When the Crown Prince's convoy appeared before them, their faces showed unbelievable surprise and excitement.

The nobles looked at the huge convoy that the Crown Prince had brought back with shining eyes.

They knew that this was not just the return of a convoy of supplies, but also the Crown Prince's attention and investment in the Northwest region.

They secretly calculated what changes and opportunities the Crown Prince's return would bring to the Northwest.

Solon's convoy slowly entered Fuljia City. Accompanying Solon to the Northwest were also convoys from major chambers of commerce in the capital, who also brought a large number of goods from the capital.

Now, the main roads of Fuljia City have been widened by a factor of one, with shops lining the streets, goods dazzling, and merchants busy trading, a scene of prosperity.

Many new buildings have also appeared in the city, replacing the old buildings. At least on Fuljia Avenue, the main road, it looks no less than the capital.

"Have you heard? His Highness the Crown Prince is going to expand Fuljia City, dividing the city into three rings,

The original inner city is the inner ring, the outer city is the second ring, and the outside of the city wall is the third ring."

A well-informed citizen suddenly said, his voice full of excitement and anticipation.

The merchant of the caravan immediately had his eyes lit up and signaled the attendant next to him to come over.

The attendant immediately understood and gave the speaking civilian a small bag of copper coins.

The civilian weighed the money bag, about thirty copper coins.

"Buddy, are you sure about the news?" the attendant asked.

"Of course, that's what my brother's wife's aunt's younger brother said. He is an official in the city hall, a big shot. I heard that the city hall has been drawing up drawings recently. I heard that after the expansion of the third ring, Fuljia City will become a giant city that can accommodate millions of people," the civilian's voice was full of pride and arrogance.

The attendant inquired from other people and quickly confirmed the news that Fuljia City was going to be expanded.

This news aroused great interest among the stewards in charge of the caravan.

The expansion of a city is not a simple matter.

First of all, a large number of urban construction raw materials are needed, such as stone, wood, bricks, and volcanic ash clay.

The market demand for these materials will increase sharply, and the profits contained are naturally inestimable.

Not to mention the later work of repairing and carving to beautify the basic infrastructure, which also requires a lot of materials and manpower.

This means new business opportunities and profit margins for the caravan.

The persons in charge of the caravan were shining with light. They quickly began to calculate the commercial value that the expansion of Fuljia City might bring, and how they should seize this opportunity to maximize their profits.
