Mage Lord: The Tech Tree is Skewed by Me

Although both parties had their own thoughts, in the face of common interests, a new agreement was quickly and smoothly concluded.

There are four main points in the agreement.

First, Antoria will provide the Duke of Galicia with at least three hundred horses of moon velvet every month at the price of ten gold escudos per horse, and increase this amount to one thousand within three years. match.

Second, in order to fulfill the territorial obligations and strengthen the defense capabilities of Antolia, the Duke of Galicia will send fifty craftsmen to Antolia and repatriate more than 700 craftsmen who have left Antolia in the past few decades. Fugitive serfs from Asia will continue to be sent to Antolia in the future.

Third, Antolia has the right of first refusal to purchase grain from the city of Parma and can settle the food at 80% of the market price.

Fourth, the transportation costs of the moonlight velvet will be borne by Leon himself, and the soldiers responsible for the transportation will be arranged by Leon himself.

Leon was very satisfied with this.

Although this agreement reduced the monetary benefits Antolia could receive, it gained more people.

As for the so-called serfs who escaped from Antolia in Article 2...

Although the serfs said that they did not know where Antolia was at all, as long as the nobles said that they came from Antolia, they must come from Antolia.

Except for the above few clauses, most of the other clauses are some corner constraints, which seem insignificant.

In order to appease the church and better implement the principle of giving a sweet date a slap, the Duke of Galicia specifically added the requirement that Antolia build a church within ten years in the fifth article of the agreement.

Although Leon expressed strong opposition to this on the surface, he finally reluctantly agreed.

In exchange for this, he obtained the right of first refusal to purchase the iron ore in the city of Parma.

Because he really didn't just talk about it before, Leon really planned to build a church on the land of Antolia.

only……

Who stipulates that those worshiped in churches must be the God of Light?

The scattered mountain tribes in Antolia each have their own totem gods. For example, the Lapruk tribe regards the bear otter as the totem of their own tribe.

Even though the natives of the Thorn Territory do not believe in gods, the new mountain people do!

From the perspective of improving religious unity and increasing tolerance of heresy, building a church is obviously a thing of great benefit to the territory.

And it can’t be a small church, it must be a cathedral.

If there are sufficient funds and manpower, Leon even plans to build it into a wonder, preferably by stuffing all the totem gods of various ancestor tribes into it.

Because if even the totems can gather together, then the mountain people of various tribes can naturally surround themselves under the banner of the Jimena family.

In the world view of the mountain people, the beliefs of different totems have not yet been upgraded to the advanced version that hates heretics, so it is entirely possible for the totem gods to sit in a row.

After all, compared to the wind-swept mountains, a splendid church is already considered a mansion.

All in all, the Duke is very satisfied with this agreement, and Leon is very satisfied, a win-win situation!

And when Leon signed the agreement in Parma City, distant Antolia was not idle at all.

The retreat of the plateau hounds brought rare peace to this cold winter, and the appointment of the new viscount also brought a new atmosphere to Antolia.

As the chief steward of the Jimena family, Aaron seemed to have an epiphany during this process and decided to work on new tracks and develop new playing methods.

To put it more clearly, after having a full exchange with Lapruk Priest Fast, Aaron planned to try to start elk and goose breeding in Antolia.

With the sale of moonlight velvet, Aaron's mind became more and more vivid, and the elk and geese running around outside the city naturally came into his sight.

Elk and geese are endemic to Antolia.

In the local songs of Antolia, the creation of this creature originated from a beautiful love story.

It is said that thousands of years ago, an elk fell in love with a big white goose...

Aaron had no interest in legendary love stories, but he was intrigued by the creature of elk and goose.

The antlers of the elk and goose can be used as magic materials, the fur of the elk and goose can be used as winter fur, and even the elk and goose itself can be turned into a plump and tender dish.

A long time ago, the Antolians tried to tame this creature countless times.

However, it has never been successful.

The reason is also very simple. Elk and geese have very poor eyesight and are extremely hard-headed. They will bump into trees all day long in the woods, and even got the nickname "Forest Destroyer" in Antolia.

If it is kept in captivity, the wooden fence will become sawdust all over the ground in a few days.

Even if you build a fence with stone, it will only change the material of the powder from wood to stone.

But after experiencing the Year of the Jackdaw, the buildings piled outside the city gave Aaron new inspiration.

Plateau hounds are the natural enemies of elk and geese. When the Jingguan is built up, all the elk and geese around the thorn collar will avoid it.

In this case, can the bones of plateau hounds be used to build a fence, so that the elk and geese can honestly accept the fate of being raised by the Antolians?

The more he thought about it, the more Aaron felt that this method was feasible.

Although his lord went to the city of Parma, the development of Antolia could not stop because of this.

You know, the fur of elk and goose is not only extremely high-quality fur, but also an important resource for the Antolian people to keep out the cold.

If the raising of elk and geese is really feasible, then Antolia will have another brand-new industry after moon velvet.

Just do it!

I don’t know if it was intentional or not, but under Aaron’s arrangement, many of the refugees captured by the Antolians from Gray Water Castle were assigned the task of building elk and goose farms.

The materials they used to build the fence were the bones left behind by the dead plateau hounds.

Looking at the bones in his hands and thinking of the plateau hounds that were raging in Gray Water Castle a few days ago, the refugees' legs and feet have long been weak. How can they dare to escape?

Coupled with the fact that Antolia distributed enough food every day to just fill their stomachs, the refugees who came from afar naturally gave up the idea of ​​​​escape.

The serfs who lived miserable lives had never had a sense of belonging to the nobles. Whoever gave them a bite to eat was their lord.

"It's done!"

When the first shack was successfully built, Aaron looked at the helpless elk and geese cowering in the middle of the shack and showed a smile of satisfaction.

Every fence around the shack is derived from the remains of plateau hounds. Although the hounds are dead, their bones still have the aura that makes elk and geese tremble.

Then a stronger fence is built from the outside of the bone wall, and the elk and geese are raised.

"When the Viscount comes back, you will all be rewarded heavily!"

Aaron looked at the surrounding citizens with satisfaction and took a shot of chicken blood without hesitation.
