Day 56, you decide to inspect the internal affairs of the Duchy.

As a newly appointed King, it is extremely important to conduct private visits and inspect the internal affairs of the Duchy.

This is also a move to understand the true situation within the Duchy.

Only in this way can you know how to administer the medicine, and where the medicine needs to be applied, to guide the entire Duchy towards a better, more stable, peaceful, and prosperous future.

Day 57, you traveled to more than a dozen cities around the royal city, gaining a clear understanding of the lives of the citizens in the Duchy's large and medium-sized cities and their degree of affection for you.

Most human citizens do not have strong confidence in you, and mention you with a sense of fear.

Fortunately, since your coronation, you have not issued any excessive or outrageous policies, and many citizens are still adopting a wait-and-see attitude towards you.

Therefore, you decided to start with ideology.

This world values strength, so most people with status are mages or warriors with magical levels.

Even scholars, if their own level is not high enough and they are not strong enough, their research will not be presentable and will not be valued.

However, the vast majority of people do not have the potential to become strong, and can only watch the strong with envy.

You decided to improve this situation.

You don't want them to judge heroes solely based on level. You are very clear that just having powerful strength, unless it is extremely powerful, does not greatly enhance national power.

The improvement of national power is reflected in many aspects: economy, culture, resources...

You ordered that academies be built in every city as affiliated institutions of the Royal Comprehensive Magic School.

The courses include various fields such as human and magic beast interaction, human body research, magic beast research, academic lectures, and magic knowledge.

Except for some compulsory courses, the rest are electives.

A credit system is adopted, and students can graduate or choose to continue their studies upon reaching the requirements.

Afterwards, you asked Mu Sidi to develop a set of scholar promotion system.

Talents are selected and cultivated by the local academies themselves as reserve scholars for the Royal Comprehensive Magic School.

Day 58, you noticed that the vast majority of citizens within the Duchy still rely on farming to make a living.

However, there are a large number of wastelands within the Duchy.

The reason is that, on the one hand, the reclamation is difficult.

On the other hand, these wastelands are often ravaged by magic beasts.

For the first aspect, you asked the Duchy's Royal Supreme Research Institute to develop a set of agricultural tools that combine magic and manpower.

The second aspect made you feel difficult.

From the perspective of humans, these wastelands are often ravaged by magic beasts, but you know that magic beasts live in these places, not ravage them.

If these magic beasts are driven away, it will inevitably affect the living space of the magic beasts.

What you want to establish is a country where magic beasts and humans coexist, and you will certainly not favor one over the other.

You didn't have a good solution, so you offered a high reward for a group of brave people to cultivate a small part of the wasteland where these magic beasts live, and at the same time restrict these magic beasts from harming humans without your orders.

In order to compensate for the fact that the planted crops occupy part of the living space of the magic beasts, a part of the crops needs to be given to the magic beasts as a reward.

While the magic beasts give up a small part of the space, they can also increase the reward by cooperating with humans in farming.

Thus, the working beast system began to appear.

……

Day 69, your inspection ended.

During these ten days of inspection, you discovered many problems and used your previous experience to modify these unreasonable places in accordance with the current national conditions of the Kern Duchy.

You hope that when these modifications take effect, they will greatly enhance the national power, allow magic beasts and humans to truly live together, allow magic beasts to not have to fight all day long, and allow humans to not have to worry about safety.

Day 70, Luther looked at you, his face as calm as an ancient well, as usual.

During these days, he was like a bodyguard, always by your side.

With him, a seventh-level thug, by your side, no villains dared to bump into you.

Although he would occasionally go crazy and attack you, it was not difficult for you at all.

All of his attacks were ineffective.

……

That night, Carla returned.

Luther left.

Day 71, Amyra came to report.

The Royal Potion Shops in all parts of the Duchy have been completed, and the recruitment of personnel has also been completed.

Everything is ready, you only need to set an opening time, and all of them can be opened.

You found Lucy.

Lucy is now a fifth-level pharmacist and is in a specially built Royal Potion Hall with other pharmacists.

Lucy is the Hall Master of the Royal Potion Hall.

Currently, all potion reserves are handled by Lucy.

The amount of potions required for the simultaneous opening of all potion shops in the entire Duchy is an extremely large amount.

Moreover, the Kern Potion Shop is just a potion shop in the Lornoss Duchy, but in the Kern Duchy, this belongs to the royal industry, and it must be done well when it opens.

This is also the reason why you and Amyra jointly decided that all shops should open on the same day.

In addition to Lucy, you also threw Little Fire here to refine potions.

Lucy knew your intentions in advance. Her delicate little face is now full of worry, 'Lord Kern, the difference is too great.'

'At most, half of the potion shops can be operated at present. If you want all the potion shops to open together, half of the potion amount is still missing.'

'It will take at least ten days to work overtime.'

Ten days.

Amyra shook her head slightly, this time is a bit too long.

You looked at Amyra, 'Amyra, go to the Potion Guild of the Lornoss Duchy and borrow some potions from them, and strive to open the shops within three days.'

Amyra immediately took the order and left.

Afterwards, you looked at Lucy, touched her head, 'Lucy, take a break for a while.

Let Little Fire do it.'

Aside, Little Fire's movements paused, looking at you resentfully.

In the corner, Ah Dai, who was holding a book, looked up and glanced, then lowered his head and stared blankly at the book.

……

Day 73, all Royal Potion Shops in all cities within the Duchy opened.

As soon as they opened, they quickly ignited the enthusiasm of local cultivators.

At the same time, some bad things also happened.

Some potion shops experienced organized looting.

In response, the magic beasts responsible for guarding, hidden next to each potion shop, came in handy.

The vast majority of organizations were completely annihilated in this activity.

This not only ensured the normal operation of the shops, but also deterred the local forces, achieving multiple goals at once.

Day 74, with the enthusiasm of the shop openings, under your instructions, Kun Fire Apes officially selected several pilot cities and put some trained magic beasts into them to live with humans.
