Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel

Xiao Tru himself also felt as if he had divine help, and his craftsmanship improved very quickly.

This was a feeling he had never experienced before, and he had new inspiration every day.

He kept improving and progressing, and even felt that he was almost at the same level as his father.

"Could it be... that the old man's level was too low and he delayed me?"

Technology progressed very quickly, and naturally some inflated ideas came into being.

Fortunately, the progress gradually became slower and slower, and Derek also deliberately controlled it, so he did not completely inflate.

One month was still too short, and even other people in the family did not think that he could make a name for himself in a month.

But Derek felt that he would have to go out and see sooner or later.

With the data panel, his development in one month was equivalent to that of others in half a year, and it was too boring to stay here all the time.

Besides, how can we grow quickly without opening up a source of income?

Relying on Xiao Tru? The income of one or two gold coins a year is still too little.

In recent days, I have saved more than 20 cast iron spearheads, which are not enough as goods.

I had concerns before, so I was a little conservative. The next step is to exchange the gold coins in my hand for strength.

Leaving some expenses, the monthly salary of each recruit is 80 copper coins, which is lower than the normal level.

Little Tru is currently a silver coin, after all, he is a follower.

The monthly salary expenditure is less than eight or nine silver coins, plus rations and various losses, one gold coin is enough.

Leaving 10 gold coins for emergency, at least 40 gold coins can be used, which is a large amount of money.

"Recruit 20 more people?"

Andrew felt that his nephew was crazy. With dozens of people eating, drinking and wages, how long can he last with that little capital?

"Derrick, you need to train a group of warriors first, and then find a way to make money.

Believe me, it's easy to recruit soldiers, but you have to feed them.

Otherwise, no loyalty can be maintained."

Andrew said his own experience.

The Ferreira family is considered powerful, with more than a hundred regular guards, seven or eight knights, and the ability to temporarily recruit militia, and a team of 500 people can be put together in minutes.

But this is all maintained by a large number of industries, thousands of people, a large number of manors and industries, otherwise it will go bankrupt today and all this will disappear tomorrow.

Derek certainly knew, but he insisted on his own ideas.

In order to avoid interference from Uncle Andrew, he even made up a white lie: "Uncle, I have received a long-term escort order and will set off soon.

I need manpower, these soldiers will be placed here for training first, and will be taken away next time."

"You won't be deceived, will you?" Andrew couldn't believe it, how could it be so good.

"I guarantee with Derek's honor that I will never do that.

This is the relationship with Count Perez."

Derek revealed a little information mysteriously, and Andrew immediately imagined a good show.

"You are still capable and have met some reliable friends outside." Andrew was a little depressed, but he no longer doubted it. After all, his nephew didn't look like he had lost his mind.

To be honest, the rule of the nobles has its pros and cons. In the territory of the Perez family, conscription is really unrealistic without the cooperation of the sheriff.

To put it bluntly, how could little Tru be volunteered without Andrew's words?

The best young people in the village were quickly swept away. If you want to continue conscription next time, you need to lower your requirements a little.

After arranging the training, he assigned two apprentices to Little Tru and told him clearly that he had to train new people.

In this era, technical work is a family secret. Little Tru must be unwilling, but the knife is on his neck, so he has to do it.

Derek understands that Little Tru will definitely not work hard at the beginning, but it doesn't matter. Time will make him understand how to do it.

The data panel can only give him an advantage over others. Other things are learned while doing, and there are always more opportunities to make mistakes than others.

After waiting for a few days and including everyone in the panel statistics, Derek took a team of new recruits on the road, and the rest accumulated experience step by step.

The target this time is the Watch City.

This is the largest city nearby and the second largest city in the northern province.

It is managed by officials sent by the kingdom and even has a kingdom army stationed there.

Of course, Derek did not go on the road empty-handed. He took a carriage and a thousand kilograms of wheat bran on the road.

Here, a kilogram of wheat bran is at most two copper coins, and the purchase price is even lower.

But if it is brought to the Watch City, it is a profit of half a copper coin per kilogram.

A cart is worth 500 copper coins. Although the profit is small, it is easy to earn after all.

As for why I didn't bring more food, I'm sorry... Food is the business of the Ferreira family.

At least in the family territory, no one can beat them.

This thousand kilograms was collected sporadically by Derek.

If he wasn't the son of Baron Ferreira, his body would have appeared in the stinking ditch now.

Derek's main purpose was not to make money, but to accumulate experience. He first hired a horseman and bought a carriage, which was considered a fixed asset.

This simple caravan set off in an awkward manner.

Soon the news appeared on Baron Ferreira's table.

The latter glanced at it lightly and didn't say anything.

...

Along the way, Derek wanted to meet some bandits and robbers to practice his skills.

It's a pity that the escort standard was a bit over the standard. No one went crazy and fought with a dozen soldiers for a dozen silver coins of food.

It took ten days to finally reach the destination after wandering all the way.

Watch City, this is the first time Derek has seen a proper city since he came to this world.

It sounds pitiful, but this is the truth.

Even the castle of Count Perez is smaller than Watch City.

The soldiers guarding the gate saw the caravan and naturally saw the pennant representing the noble status.

Derek entered the city after collecting a symbolic entrance fee of fifty copper coins.

Then... who the hell urinated and defecated everywhere?

Derek was disgusted to death after stepping on unknown feces.

The sanitation conditions in the countryside had already made him uncomfortable, and he had always been strict in his own territory.

But this step at the door broke all his fantasies.

"This world is completely different now."

Derek adjusted his mentality, sold the grain to the Ferreira family's shop at a low price, and found a place to live.

The purpose of his coming here was, first, to see the world and take it as a training, and second, to find a reliable source of iron ore.
