Phoenix Grand Lord

After Knight Maiwen and others finished reporting, the old scholar Durdi stood up to report on the various industries in Calendula Town.

The old bachelor Durd took out a long list and reported it one by one in detail.

In general, the capture of the Marigold Town this time is equivalent to a snake swallowing an elephant, making Merrill Lynch become a big fat man in one go.

As a capital territory run by dozens of generations of noble lords, although the supporting industries cannot be said to be developed, they can be considered as full of them.

First of all, the territory of Calendula Town is very large. The largest of other manor territories is the Red Rose Manor, but the territory of Calendula Town is as big as 5 Red Rose Manors.

If we compare the expanded Merrill Lynch Valley with the Marginal Town, we may need at least 20 Merrill Lynch Valley estates to be compared with the territory of Marginal Town.

Moreover, the territory of Calendula Town is not only in a good geographical location, but also in the Hetao Plain area of ​​the Shattered Galaxy Valley. It has a large area of ​​fertile grain planting and large areas of pasture and animal husbandry, as well as a simple fisherman's wharf.

The town of Calendula and Merrill Lynch Valley are also close to the Broken Galaxy, but the bank cliffs in the Brown Galaxy section of Merrill Lynch Valley are very high, with a maximum of 10 or 20 kilmetres, and the water flow is also very fast, making it difficult to develop the fishing industry.

If you want to fish in Merrill Lynch Valley, you must first climb down the towering cliff with great effort, and then cast a net on the dangerous tidal flats. It is common to return without success.

However, the river section of Calendula Town is different. The water in Calendula Town has been very smooth after the buffer impacting the plain, and there is almost no drop in the shore cliff, which is very suitable for fishing and building water docks.

Of course, waterway trade in the western border is not developed, so the town of Calendula did not establish a decent wharf.

It is just a small fishing pier, and there are only four small fishing boats.

These four fishing boats can already meet the needs of the entire Marigold Town.

After all, in the place where you sleep, the only one who can eat fish is the lord and the lord's relatives.

After getting this Fisherman's Wharf, Luo Wei naturally could eat fish every day.

But what Luo Wei is really interested in is not the fish, but the dock itself.

Luo Wei has already overlooked through the Demigod-level Feather Insight. As long as the Marigold Fisherman's Wharf is expanded, it can be upgraded to a dock dock, and can build warships for transporting troops in the dock.

With the warship, you can go down the Shattered Galaxy River, bypass the heavy troops in the border area of ​​the Shattered Galaxy Valley, and land in an hour to raid the Shattered Galaxy Valley Town!

Of course, building a ship is not that easy. In addition to high-end carpenters, it also requires a lot of wood and iron rivets.

And these are all available in Merrill Lynch Valley.

Not only that, Hayes is currently in the Merrill Lynch Valley.

Supervising the construction of small troop transport ships and training water battles can be left to first mate Hayes to do.

Yes, although the Merrill Lynch Valley is small now, it is necessary to start from small to develop the navy.

Luo Wei suddenly had a new plan in his mind.

In addition to this Fisherman's Wharf that needs to be expanded, the town of Calendula also has a large number of fertile fields on the small plains of Hetao.

The grain industry is the pillar industry of Calendula Town.

To put it bluntly, Calendula Town is a major grain-producing town, and even the entire Calendula Territory is a grain-producing territory.

The town of Calendula has a large wheat field that is enough to feed the four baron territories, and is one of the top three territories with the largest grain production in the western border of the Soladin Empire.

The winter wheat in the farmland of Calendula Town is growing well and should have been harvested in spring, but after the arrival of the sky, it will definitely affect the growth of the winter wheat. Only when the hanging elephant ends on that day will the winter wheat continue to grow.

No one can tell how long the sky hangs will last.

Of course, Luo Wei was ready.

First of all, there is enough food stored in the granary of the Calendula Town to eat the entire Calendula territory for a whole year.

Secondly, according to the rules of the Soladin Empire, the food in the hands of civilians can only be sold to local lords.

The lord will sell it uniformly.

Therefore, even if there are still some fields in the town of Calendula that do not belong to Luo Wei, but to the common farmers of Calendula, the grain on these lands is Luo Wei, but it only costs money to buy it from the farmers.

And now, the calendula farmer doesn't have much food in his hands, and all of them are taken into the granary by Edmund in the name of taxation.

When Durdi finished reporting on the relevant matters of the farm, Luo Wei interrupted:

“Durdi, after this meeting, the first thing you have to do is to go to the valiant treasure house to withdraw money and buy their food from the territories of the surrounding major lords.

"Well - Master, we have too much food and we can't even put the granary." Durdie warned cautiously.

Luo Wei didn't explain anything, but just smiled and said, "Then build a new granary."

"Yes, Master."

Seeing Luo Wei say this, Durdi naturally didn't dare to talk more.

The food in the Western Region has been harvesting for many years, and too many people have forgotten the feeling of starvation.

When troubled times come, food is the real hard currency.

I don’t know when this sagging elephant will last, and I don’t know when the Aurora Day will end.

The sun and the moon did not know when they would reappear, but in terms of the importance of Fnixia's prophecy, the sky hangs would definitely not end so easily.

Therefore, while everyone hasn't reacted, buying food is the most effective strategy.

War is the continuation of politics.

In fact, real wars are always going on, and wars on force are just the process of deciding the outcome.

"Oh by the way, Rivenzhi, you and your mother, Mrs. Swan, also take the opportunity to go back to the Shattered Star Valley to urge us to eat this month, and then buy the stored grains that can be bought in Shattered Star Valley town. All the double clerks and craftsmen that can be hired are hired."

Luo Wei said generously: "I will grant you and Durdi 10,000 gold coins each. You can choose whatever you want. Be sure to do this."

"Yes! Master!" Ruiwenzhi bowed respectfully to accept the order.

Ten thousand gold coins - enough to buy a small manor! Giving so much money as you say, this is Mr. Luo Wei’s trust!

"Okay, keep reporting." Luo Wei signaled to Durdi.

Durdi quickly picked up the long scroll and continued to report.

In addition to large areas of fertile fields, the town of Calendula also has large areas of herbal plantations and cotton plantations, as well as livestock pastures.

Of course, these industries are not as good as the food industry, and can only be regarded as the most appropriate aspect of the baron.

The textile light industry in Calendula Town also has some scale.

There are more than twenty looms in the textile workshop to which the lord belongs, and more than a dozen looms among the civilians.

In addition, there are two mills to which the lord belongs, and one mill to which the common people belong.

There is one blacksmith shop to which the lord belongs, and two small blacksmith stalls to which the common people belong.

The market of calendula belongs to the lord, and all vendors must pay the venue fee to the lord.

This is how it is when a lord, you can make money with your eyes closed.

And when a civilian and a slave, he owes money as soon as he opens his eyes.

Of course, what Luo Wei really cares about is not the above-mentioned money-making industries. What Luo Wei really cares about is the population of the Marigold Town.

Manpower is always the first resource and driving force for development.

According to Durdi's preliminary statistics, there are currently more than 1,500 civilians in the town of Calendula, and more than 2,000 slaves, the Merrill Valley will not have to worry about development.

Luo Wei planned to go and select some slaves to take them back to Merrill Lynch Valley after the meeting ended.

As for civilians, unless they are skilled people, they are not qualified to become leaders of the Merrill Lynch Valley.

That's right, although the town of Calendula was captured, Luo Wei did not intend to use Calendula as his new capital.

Luo Wei's strategic positioning has long been decided.

The Marigold Territory is not the ultimate goal. Next, we will take over the Shattered Galaxy Valley and the Purple Forest Territory, so that the three major territories can protect the Merrillian Valley. The real development of Merrillian Valley is to go deeper into the Black Moon Forest. develop.

Merrill Lynch Valley is a place where dragons flourish, and its administrative specifications are naturally higher than those in the town of Calendula.

The civilians and slaves in the town of Calendula were actually not well-being, but the Merrill Lynch Valley was different.

The slaves in the Merrill Lynch Valley eat much better than the civilians in the town of Calendula, and their housing conditions are better than those in the town of Calendula.

Civilians in Calendula Town even had no toilets and could only urinate and drown on the streets. There were many things that caused illness due to lack of hygiene. In the Merrill Valley, even slaves could use the toilet with decent amounts.

Moreover, the slaves in the Merrill Lynch Valley had the opportunity to become civilians.

Luo Wei naturally has to strictly control such good welfare conditions.

With the insight of the demigod-level feather, this is not a difficult thing to do.

Next, Durdi reported on the fixed assets obtained by Luo Wei.

Luo Wei obtained the entire luxurious mansion in the town of Calendula, as well as the 18 servants and 15 male slaves in the mansion, 3

0 female slaves, and all furniture and supplies.

The treasure house of calendula, armory, horses, military camps, blacksmith shops, logging farms, animal husbandry, fishing farms,

The collection areas, grain plains, grain trade offices, etc. are all 100% owned by Luo Wei.

In addition, Luo Wei also obtained more than 300 serfs, who were scattered in farmland, horses, logging farms, livestock farms, fishing farms and other places.

With such an asset scale, it finally looks like a feudal lord.

After Durdi finished reporting, everyone present was filled with joy.

When Mr. Luo Wei grows stronger, it means that they grow stronger.

Luo Wei immediately began to carry out post-war rewards.

The previously promised iron coins are awarded by Charitz.

In addition, those who made meritorious contributions in the war also received additional meritorious iron coins.

Newas and others, who were responsible for staying and protecting Anne during the war, all received second-class military merits.

Although this war did not determine the first-class military merit, Newars won the highest reward for this war with his heroic performance!

Newas and his wife were promoted to the civilian class by Luo Wei!

From then on, Newars was no longer a slave, but a civilian who could own private property and receive gold!

Of course, if you lose your right arm, Newark could only retire from the bell ringing army, and then make arrangements for your subsequent work.

With so many industries in Calendula Town, what is lacking is absolutely loyal managers, so Newas has the opportunity to shine for Mr. Luo Wei.

Knight Maiwen and his mercenaries also received additional gold coin rewards in addition to the meritorious iron coins.

Each of the mercenaries received a reward of 10 gold coins.

Knight Maiwen received a reward of 30 gold coins.

Similarly, Charitz, Anne, Melisjo, Rivenzhi, Rafa, Durdi, and even the maid Lilian, all received different amounts of gold coin rewards.

Of course, people like Chariz Anne, Meilizhuo Lilian are not Turowei's gold coin rewards at all.

But it is their business whether to take it or not, Luo Wei still asked Durdi to send out the money.

In addition to the meritorious iron coins and gold coin rewards, Luo Wei also gave Meiling Valley three days off.

In the next three days, there will be an open-air banquet from morning to night every day, with beer and various meats, and unlimited supply of condiments and spices such as salt and sugar!

In short, in one sentence, as long as you win, you can have whatever you want!

After the collective reward, the next step is the manor reward.

As the saying goes, the wind rises and the clouds fly, how can we get warriors to guard the four directions.

The conquered territory needs to be governed and managed.

Luo Wei is the supreme ruler of the Marigold Territory, but the specific affairs of each manor must be managed by specific subordinates.

The Soladin Empire is a feudal empire, so such a large territory naturally needs to be divided.

Luo Wei's three cousins ​​took over their respective manors.

Donnie took over the Watch Farm Manor, and he will be the lord of the Watch Farm Manor in the future.

Drake took over the Red Rose Manor, and Drake will be the lord of the Red Rose Manor in the future.

Gilbert took over the Stone Forest Highland Manor, and Gilbert will be the lord of the Stone Forest Highland Manor in the future.

Of course, this will have to wait until Luo Wei officially becomes the Marigold Baron before he can publicly confer vassals.

If we look at the merits of this war, these three cousins ​​don't deserve to get three manors at all.

But in fact, this account can't be calculated in this way.

Although Donnie and others did not directly fight in the war in Merrill Valley, Luo Wei had to rely on the lord soldiers in their hands and the family forces behind them to stabilize the situation in the entire Marigold territory.

What's more, Donnie and his family are all named Valentine.

In troubled times, the power of clans sticking together will be beyond imagination.

On the surface, Red Rose Manor is the best among these manors, but in fact it is not.

Watch Farm Manor has a lot of fertile farmland, and it is also the closest to Zilin Territory and close to Meilin Valley, so it must be the territory that Luo Wei relies on the most and will benefit the most in the future.

Of course, the current Watch Farm Manor has nothing.

Drake's Red Rose Manor is close to the territory of Baron Redstone, and Baron Redstone has a good relationship with Edmund. Two of the catapults Edmund brought were rented from Baron Redstone.

Therefore, Red Rose Manor will face the pressure of Redstone Border.

Gilbert's Stone Forest Highland Manor will face the pressure from the three directions of Swan, Peng, and Moon Spring Manors, which is the most difficult.

However, Luo Wei has sent half of the troops of the reorganized Marigold Border Army to Stone Forest Highland Manor, so Gilbert is not worried about anything.

At present, there are still three manors without owners.
