Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel

Derek was indeed very surprised when he saw Adrian and a bunch of farmers arriving.

But of course the more people the better, and the world's population is also an important resource.

Even if some are scornfully called two-legged livestock, they are not means of production.

"Welcome, Adrian."

Derek quickly expressed his trust in Adrian. After all, he was a blood relative. Under the rules of this era, relatives may not be reliable, but it was inevitable.

At least, this cousin is fairly reliable and there are no random rumors.

Moreover, the son of a village sheriff didn't have that many resources to draw on.

He had received at least a basic education and even training in aristocratic etiquette.

He is also hard-working and has no lofty ambitions.

If you add a little blood relationship, it is really a very good helper.

Derek has the confidence to control a subordinate like Adrian.

First, I replaced him with a war horse and a set of equipment.

Derek opened the panel, and sure enough, Adrian's face appeared on it.

At least in terms of obedience, he was faster than other farmers, which showed that he was mentally prepared.

“This place is relatively simple and the conditions are very difficult, but basic supplies are still available.

My business... needs some help, and you've come at the right time. "

Derek first trained the farmers uniformly, and then assigned them to the army and the blacksmith shop based on their character and obedience.

Including the previous three teams, a total of five teams were formed.

Among them were three spearmen, one group of swordsmen, and one group of sword and shield soldiers.

Different soldiers actually have slightly different uses.

The blacksmith shop can be expanded to 20 people at a time. All they have to do is wait for them to grow up and their annual income will be at least a thousand gold coins.

However, the source and sales of iron ore will gradually become new issues.

From the rest, five people were selected from the previous soldiers as new knight squires.

With the addition of grooms, grassroots management staff and slaves, the small camp already has a population of over a hundred people.

A micro-manor without so many people.

The output here is far beyond that of a micro-manor.

Even though the Ferreira family has greater potential power, in terms of pure profit, it is only this amount.

Of course, if consumption is taken away, profits will be greatly reduced.

Adrian quickly adapted to the new life. Although it was boring here, Derek's salary was not low, and there was always progress.

What's more, temporarily commanding the cavalry for Derek, his status is not the same as before.

He was convinced that Derek had a bigger future than any of the other brothers in the family.

As the stall grew bigger and bigger, the daily output of weapons began to increase, and the consumption also became larger and larger.

Three to five hundred kilograms of iron ore are consumed every day, and it is difficult to meet this amount through scattered purchases.

Some nearby small mines only have this output, so buying too much at once will attract a lot of attention.

With the output of weapons under Derek's command, a thousand-man team could be armed in a month.

This can already cause market fluctuations. Anyway, the price of weapons in Overwatch City has dropped slightly recently.

Adrian also knew about Derek's troubles, and then he made a very useful suggestion.

"We can't get involved in Overwatch City's business, but there is one product that no one will refuse."

Adrian pointed at the horses pacing back and forth.

“No nobleman would refuse a fine war horse.

In fact, no one will investigate the origin of any war horse smuggled in.

Using it as a stepping stone, you may be able to expand your business channels. "

The northern province is actually one of the producing areas of war horses, and many nobles and businessmen keep a group of war horses.

Even ordinary quality riding horses can be sold for a good price.

A horse is only three to five gold coins, and an ordinary riding horse is often more than ten gold coins. The price of a high-quality horse that can be used as a war horse will be doubled.

If it is an excellent war horse that can carry heavy armor, the price will be more than sixty or seventy gold coins.

Most cavalry and even knights actually only use riding horses for training, and very few are actually equipped with war horses.

This price is still in the northern provinces. It is said that the price doubles or doubles in the middle or even the south.

Adrian didn't know about the good horse that Derek got, but with this as a stepping stone, some business might be done.

After all, nobles and kingdom officials are also human beings, and there are inevitable exchanges of interests and favor needs.

Although Derek is familiar with the rules of this world, he still carries the thinking of his previous life.

Although Adrian does not even have a noble title, he has been exposed to the aristocratic politics of this world since he was a child, and he naturally understands it more after seeing more.

The power and political resources in the hands of nobles and even kingdom officials are not to be left unused. If you can bring benefits, they will not mind making exchanges.

Derek had been cautious and did not dare to go overboard, but from Adrian's point of view, there was actually a lot of room for maneuver.

"You can do business with the family first. If you have a war horse... my uncle will agree." Adrian suggested.

However, Derek quickly rejected this suggestion. He had better trading partners.

Of course there is no problem in doing business with the family, but we have to wait a while.

Moreover, my predecessor's three years in the earldom were not in vain.

He first calculated that it would take about nine months to train a low-quality horse to a high-quality one.

The value of labor and food is very low, with food worth ten copper coins a day. It's just over one gold coin.

But a horse worth three gold coins can earn more than 17 gold coins after nine months.

Profit is secondary, the most important thing is to be able to exchange for some resources.

War horses are also a scarce resource, and naturally have the value of exchanging other resources.

Looking at the war horses in his hand, because of the panel, they are all specially selected horses to reduce costs.

Derek once realized that war horses make money, but he just treated it as an ordinary business.

He even felt that the manpower consumed could create more value.

A few horsemen working hard for a year may not be able to earn more than a blacksmith, and there are risks.

With the panel training, there is not much difference between horsemen and blacksmiths for Derek.

So he mainly raises horses for his own use.

In addition to a few excellent war horses, there are more than a dozen ordinary quality horses.

Fortunately, three or five excellent war horses can be trained every month.

"Alas, a lot of time has been wasted. Send people to buy a batch of riding horses, and then assign a few slaves to the grooms."

Derrick quickly adjusted the arrangements, and when the riding horses that were about to be promoted were promoted to excellent quality war horses, they could go on a trip.

This time was not long.
