Starting Life as a Baron

The opening of the iron train means that the Principality of Alan will enter the industrial age.

Traditional agriculture can make people full, but industry can enhance the national strength of a country and make people rich.

Out of the metallurgical plant, Alan is working on another thing recently.

textile factory.

A leader in the textile industry and light industry.

Compared with the heavy industry of metallurgy, light industry is obviously more suitable for commercial development.

Alan has already inspected, and the current position, the evolution point of this world is all on the extraordinary power.

For technology, agriculture, etc., there is basically not much research.

The reason why I say basic, rather than no research at all, is because there are always some special people in this world who are still very hard at researching things within agriculture.

For example, the magic circle used for agriculture that Alan saw in Norton Kingdom before.

Although that thing is a supernatural power, they use it in agriculture anyway.

It also helps a lot in agriculture.

But the textile industry is indeed an industry that has not been developed at all here.

Now the clothes and cloth that flow on the bright surface 12 are all made by hand.

This is undoubtedly a great waste of labor.

Also, the production efficiency is extremely low.

This is definitely an opportunity for Alan.

In the Principality of Alan, there are also some small traders who will sell all kinds of fabrics, but most of them are sackcloth, and the real silk and satin is extremely rare.

Especially those aristocrats Alan saw, their clothing styles and fabrics could not be called Alan's serious silk and satin, but they were better than coarse cloth and linen.

If Alan can figure out textiles, silk or something.

Alan thinks this must be a big deal.

He didn't plan to do this before, because he had a small site, not enough manpower, and not enough time, so he didn't develop other industries besides agriculture at all.

Except for the three major factories.

"According to the current progress, the railway car has officially opened, but it is only the first railway.

Alan certainly couldn't just build one railway.

As the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you have to build roads first.

Just like Alan built a commercial road before.

At that time, there were no conditions, only commercial roads could be built. Now, the importance of railways is higher than that of commercial roads.

Alan couldn't give up.

"Money, it's still a problem. Most of the money from the beast spirit grass and the three major factories is invested in the industry, and the textile factories in the light industry also need gold coins. 35

Alan sighed, why every time he thinks that he has enough money to squander, he always finds that there is not enough money?

In fact, it is not that the money is not enough, but that Alan is developing rapidly.

His country had left the other principalities far behind.

Any aspect, whether financial or military.

The Principality of Alan is no exaggeration to say that he can crush two or three principalities at the same time.

A principality with dragon knights, this national power is also the top in the mainland.

In just half a year, Alan has developed the duchy from a mess in the beginning to what it is now, because there are a lot of gold coins as support.

The rapid consumption of gold coins has also become a headache for Bilu every once in a while.

Because the Principality of Alan is investing in many things at the same time.

"However, I have to spend what I have to spend. Only with investment can I reap the rewards. Things like a textile factory can bring me huge profits.

Alan isn't an indecisive figure either, he's quick to make up his mind.

Open up the textile industry!

In this case, a large number of people can be released from the contract. For these people, Alan has other ideas.

As Alan mused, Edward's steward told him that Jackson had requested an audience with the Archduke.

Alan immediately let Jackson in, and today should be the day Jackson and Tasmiz meet again.

Three months have passed, Tasmiz has become a complete adult, and he has a certain tacit understanding with Jackson. Of course, this steel dragon still likes Alan a little more. For it, Alan is like a father. Great existence.

"Grand Duke!"

After Jackson entered the study, he knelt in front of Alan and saluted.

Alan nodded, and he looked at Jackson in front of him. At this moment, Jackson's aura was no different from that of an ordinary eighth-level knight, but under Alan's eyes, his true cultivation was invisible.

"The ninth is at its peak, Jackson, does it feel like a breakthrough? 99

Alan looked at Jackson and said.

"Grand Duke, I am here today for this matter. 35

There was some joy on Jackson's face.

"Thanks to the high-level Dou Qi Cheats and Sanctuary Knight's Manual given to me by the Grand Duke, I know how to break through the Sanctuary. Without these things and the support of the Grand Duke, I think even if I reach the ninth level, I will not be able to become a Sanctuary for the rest of my life. ."

Jackson was very emotional, and he was very grateful to Alan.

As he said, if you want to break through the sanctuary, you need some special knowledge and secret techniques.

These methods are all secrets.

If there is no special secret method, even if the cultivation reaches the peak of the ninth level, there is absolutely no way to enter the sanctuary.

It's like an ordinary person standing in front of the bronze giant door, without the key, it is absolutely impossible to enter the door.

And this kind of secret method, Alan found that there are many in his library.

Yes, more often than not, there was a bookshelf on the second floor, full of bookshelves, and Jackson chose the one that best suited him for his secret practice.

Now it appears to have paid off.

"Looking at your appearance, there is a sign of a breakthrough?!"

Alan was slightly surprised, originally he thought this process would take longer.

107 "Yes Archduke, I felt that omen yesterday. 35

Jackson said with a smile: "If it wasn't for the need to hide my strength, I should have been able to break through yesterday.

"That's really good news, Jackson, you'll be the second dragon rider in our duchy.

Alan stood up, walked over to Jackson and patted him on the shoulder: "In that case, it's not too late, let's prepare first and go to a hidden place to help you break through."

Since Alan has decided to hide other dragon knights besides himself, he will never allow Jackson to break through in full view.

"Yes, Grand Duke, it's all up to you.

After being excited, Jackson also calmed down.

Alan had told him before that unless he had to, or when the time was right, he would never show his strength in front of anyone even if he became a dragon knight.

This is absolutely an impossible condition for ordinary knights.

After all, a strong person who can become a dragon knight, what they need is a high profile, what they need is honor and status.

But Jackson didn't rely on himself to become the Dragon Knight, he relied on Alan, and he was extremely loyal to Alan.

Since Alan asked him to hide his strength, he would hide it very seriously.
