Starting Life as a Baron

"Ding, trigger the side quest: form a chamber of commerce."

"Forming a chamber of commerce: As a lord, after becoming a grand duke, you discovered the problems in the duchy. The economy that is dependent on others is a phantom bubble after all, and it will burst at the touch of a button. As a lord, you should act immediately to form your own. Chamber of Commerce, start the road to business.""

"Quest reward: EXP*300,000, Mystery Manual.

The quest was triggered again without any accident, and Alan was very satisfied with it, that is, he was able to solve the problem of his own territory and get rewards, which was not too cool.

The only thing that made Alan curious was what the mysterious manual the system said was, the previous Rise of Agriculture mission rewarded ancient blueprints.

The recent system rewards seem to be something that has left Alan scratching his head.

However, the products produced by the system are all excellent choices.

Alan still has great expectations.

Both the Minister of Agriculture and the Minister of Finance have spoken.

The rest of the people also began to communicate with Alan one by one.

The official who manages the livestock industry told Alan that the pastures in the Principality of Alan are all on a plain in the southeast, where there is very high-quality pasture.

But there are some downsides there too.

That 12 is too close to Aruko's Forest.

There are often orcs, beasts running out, cattle and sheep and other creatures often become the food for those guys.

In the era of the Principality of Shake, the method they took was to suppress them by force.

There are probably two or three crackdowns per year.

Those orcs and beasts who attacked cattle and sheep were brutally suppressed.

However, because the forest of Aruq is very vast, the army of the Principality of Shake can only clean up the surrounding creatures, so all the time, those orcs and monsters will still run out to hunt from time to time.

After all, compared with the other demon beasts in the forest of Aruq, the cattle and sheep on the plain not far away are obviously more delicious and easier to hunt.

This also led to the fact that no matter how suppressed it was, cattle and sheep would also be hunted.

Finally, it is necessary to build a wall and place a certain patrol force to prevent the harassment of the cattle and sheep by the beasts and orcs in the forest of Aruq.

But even so, it still cannot be avoided.

The era of the Grand Duke of Shaker and the Duchy of Shaker did not solve this problem.

Now it was Alan's turn to face the problem.

After all, the Principality of Alan still has a problem, that is, the lack of troops.

In the past, the Principality of Shake had sufficient troops, and there were heavy guards outside the Aluk Forest. Naturally, it was easy to mobilize manpower for patrol protection.

But now, the Principality of Alan is more embarrassing. At present, the entire Principality of Alan, not counting the army of Alan, is only the number of troops left behind by the Principality of Alan, which is only less than 300,000.

It is hard to imagine a principality with less than 300,000 troops.

In terms of powerlessness, the Principality of Alan is in a weak period at the moment. At this time, it is naturally impossible to take out manpower to patrol the southeast.

Seeing that spring is coming, the cattle and sheep in the cattle and sheep pen should also be released to stretch out on the plain.

At this time, he had to face a problem, that is, how to solve the problem of Aluk's Forest.

Although the Principality of Shaker has carried out a crackdown on the Forest of Aruq before.

At that time, it was only on the periphery, or, just a little bit deeper.

It is impossible for the Shaker army to slaughter the entire Aluk Forest.

This also means that those orcs, beasts, will come back in revenge to take revenge on the Principality of Shake.

Of course, it is now called the Principality of Alan.

This is something that the official is very worried about.

Not to mention spring, there are already monsters wandering around the pasture.

If this can't solve this problem, then the loss of cattle and sheep is absolutely huge.

Hearing this, Alan raised his eyebrows. At this moment, he had already thought of the third side quest in his system.

"Ding, trigger the side quest: King of Aluk."

"King of Aluq: Orcs and monsters are infested in the southeast of the territory. As a lord, what should you do to conquer them, in the name of the king of Stranforth."

"Task reward: experience value * 200000, title: King of Aruq!"

This task can be said to be the most unchallenging task for Alan.

King of Aruq?

Alan chuckled lightly, this quest simply gave him experience points.

"It turns out, I know, old Roma, don't worry, I will solve this problem."

Alan's words made the minister in charge of the Principality's animal husbandry smile slightly: "Praise the Grand Duke!

Old Roma bowed down to Alan.

Alan waved his hand, indicating that he could step aside.

Later, he also heard some questions from the Minister of Fisheries, etc. This meeting took more than half a day to end.

Duchies have far more problems than counties.

One meeting took love to cry for most of the day, and at the same time triggered a lot of side quests.

But most of them can be handed over to others.

The only thing that caught Alan's heart was two or three things.

The first, of course, is the task of King Aluq.

This task is familiar to Alan, and the original Strangforth Mountains is the same as the current Aluk's Forest.

Isn't it the same as the monsters raging?

Don't you also have a docile and obedient post?

Alan's idea is very simple, get a few Behemoths directly from the Strangforth Mountains, and the forest of Aluke will probably be tame and obedient soon.

After the meeting, according to the previous rules, Alan brought Marco and Sparrow to the space behind the meeting hall to rest.

"Marco, I just forgot to ask, how are the soldiers recruited everywhere?"

Alan glanced at 793 who was in front of him and Marko said.

Marco immediately smiled when he heard the words: "Grand Duke, I just checked the progress yesterday."

"At present, the recruitment efforts in the four major marquis are very strong, but since the Principality of Alan is currently in the stage of being abandoned, not many civilians are willing to accept recruitment, but this is a normal situation.

"The recruitment of the four major marquis has reached about 80,000 people.

Marko said quickly: "As for the other counties, um, the progress is slow, there are probably two reasons, the first is that the golden knights we sent have just accepted the counties, and most people can't respond to one another. We still have more than a dozen counties without Golden Knights."

"The second reason is that civilians are afraid of war and are unwilling to join us. Therefore, the recruitment of counties in various places is very difficult."

Marko sighed slightly when he said this. Speaking of which, it seemed that it was the previous ones that made these civilians fear.

Before Alan and the others broke the Principality of Shake, these civilians were very active and enthusiastic.

But after Alan and the others gave the Principality of Shake a slap in the face, all the civilians were honest.

Not only are they honest, but they also have psychological shadows, and most of them are unwilling to become warriors.

The war was so terrifying that millions of people died casually. This kind of thinking directly made the civilians lose the courage to become soldiers.
