Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game

Emerging from the Saint Emblem Palace, Soron's mind was filled with memories of the game's plot.

A brief segment of the plot mentioned news about the island nation.

That plot point should have occurred after resolving Prince Corleone's rebellion, which would be five years later.

At that time, Nicholas was deeply embroiled in his struggle with Samael, and the empire had overlooked this important matter.

Soron realized that this might be due to his own butterfly effect.

The early pacification of the Northwest had caused a shift in the entire empire's situation, which in turn affected the game's plot development.

Having lost the Northwest Provinces as a safe haven, the pirates were forced to relocate to other areas.

This left the pirates with nowhere to hide, forcing them to choose more dangerous and concealed waters as their hideouts. It was precisely this reduction in pirate activity that compelled them to expand outwards, leading to the accidental discovery of the island nation.

Soron was well aware that if the empire were to confront the island nation, it would inevitably involve naval warfare, making it imperative for him to develop a navy.

He decided that upon returning to the Northwest, he would first prepare to build a port.

Although the Northwest region was impoverished, it seemed to possess a natural deep-water port, which would serve as a crucial foundation for developing a navy.

Due to the Northwest region's production being only sufficient to meet its own needs, with no surplus for export, coupled with the Northwestern nobles generally being poorer than those of other provinces, the port had remained in a semi-abandoned state.

This also reflected the weakness of the empire's naval forces and the underdeveloped state of its maritime transport, allowing overseas pirates to take advantage, hindering the effective development of maritime trade.

Soron realized that to change this situation, it was necessary to strengthen naval construction and improve maritime transport capacity.

However, this was not something he could accomplish single-handedly.

The week flew by, and Soron had to return to the Northwest.

When he returned next month, it would also be the time for Nicholas to go to his fief, and the feud between the two brothers should also be completely resolved.

This time, Soron's entourage included his great-grandfather Alonso, whose presence made Soron feel more at ease than ever before.

Alonso's addition not only enhanced Soron's sense of security but also brought greater strength and stability to the Northwest region.

Entering the Northwest, the previously desolate roads gradually showed signs of life.

On both sides of the road, serfs and commoners were cultivating new farmland, their figures busily working under the sunlight,

displaying their passion for life and their expectations for the future.

Unlike in the past, the Northwest region now had the higher-yielding Purple Melon.

Soron issued a land reclamation order, encouraging commoners to cultivate wasteland into farmland, and promising to reward them with one-tenth of the reclaimed farmland afterwards.

This policy greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of farmers and commoners to reclaim farmland, and they became more actively involved in agricultural production, hoping to obtain more land and income.

Soron's policy not only improved agricultural production in the Northwest region but also raised the living standards of the people. Through their own efforts, they gained more land and income, and their lives became more prosperous and hopeful.

With the cultivation of farmland and the development of agricultural production, the Northwest region underwent earth-shattering changes.

The farmland on both sides of the road was lush and verdant, and the busy figures of farmers and commoners formed a vivid picture. This once desolate area was now full of life and vitality, showcasing the empire's prosperity and progress.

Alonso curiously looked at everything around the road and asked, "This time I came to the Northwest, I feel that the Northwest has changed a lot."

His tone was full of curiosity and surprise, and he was obviously very surprised by the changes in the Northwest region. He had also traveled in the Northwest for several years.

Soron replied with a smile: "Great-grandfather, the people of the Northwest have their own land, and their attitude towards life is naturally different."

Alonso asked with a smile: "Are you not afraid that these lands will be seized by local nobles?"

Soron replied without the slightest fear: "These newly reclaimed farmlands have been carefully planned and belong to land outside the lord's fief. When the farmland reaches a certain scale, I will establish royal farms in these places, with the farmers' farms on one side and the royal family's manor on the other."

"Then rent these lands to these farmers for cultivation. Initially, I only need to provide seeds, and in the future, 40% of the annual income of these royal manors will belong to me. What's the difference between this and getting it for free?" His words revealed his confidence in the success of the policy and his expectations for future income.

Alonso was silent, obviously shocked by Soron's answer.

Soron's policy can not only effectively protect the farmers' land but also bring substantial income to the royal family.

His eyes flashed with appreciation and approval, expressing his satisfaction with Soron's wisdom and governing ability.

If Gustav had such vision back then, he wouldn't have been suppressed by the nobles for so long.

As soon as Soron's convoy entered the territory of the Fuerte region, a large number of cavalry came to greet them, and the leader was Jennifer.

Alonso carefully looked at Jennifer and nodded with satisfaction.

"Good girl!" Alonso's words revealed his appreciation and satisfaction with Jennifer.

Soron couldn't help but smile. Jennifer's talent for cultivation was no less than Alonso's. The future seed of a Saint-level, naturally, would not be bad.

"Your Highness, you are back!" Jennifer came to Soron's side, and the smile on her face could not be concealed.

Her tone was full of joy and anticipation.

"Is there any good news?" Soron asked with a smile, his tone full of anticipation and curiosity.

After he left for a week, the old nobles of the Northwest might no longer be able to hold on.

Jennifer replied with a smile: "Your Highness, the financial problems of the old nobles of the Northwest are becoming more and more serious, and they can no longer maintain it. On the other hand, Master Alonso has broken through to the Saint-level and has come to the Northwest with you to take charge,

which also makes them feel very uneasy."

Soron nodded slightly, especially agreeing with Jennifer's last sentence.

With a Saint-level Archmage in the Northwest, if the Saint-level Archmage is in a bad mood in the middle of the night and throws a big fireball,

it can easily blow up a castle."

The plight of the old nobles and the series of problems brought about by Alonso's presence were a good opportunity for him to completely solve the problem of the old nobles of the Northwest.

At least, he had to completely subdue the old nobles of the Northwest and make them honestly obey his orders.
