Starting Life as a Baron

Inside the Heavenly Wolf City, Lai Xue looked around in surprise. She couldn't believe that this majestic and beautiful city had only taken more than a month, and it took less than two months to build it.

Although it's still rough in many places, it's basically perfect.

"It's amazing. When I heard the news of the construction of the Sirius City, I thought it was a rumor. You don't know that many people are shocked by the speed of your construction. 99

Prince Lenerson said in amazement to Alan beside him.

"I heard that you used the power of the gods, is this true?"

Lai Xue also smelled the boy beside her curiously.

Alan walked casually on the spacious and tidy road of Sirius City, with a smile in his calm expression.

"Maybe it is the blessing of the gods, but it is more to catch everyone's strength. 35

"Ah! I heard that you have some orcs under your command! There are also magical tree people. They are amazing. I have never seen a tree person before."

Leslie said to Alan as if thinking of something again.

"It's just a few trees and orcs that I accidentally conquered, they really did a lot of work. 99

Alan explained that he pointed to some empty commercial streets in front of him: "Although the population of Sirius City is quite large, the business has not yet developed.

"Well, indeed, commerce is an indispensable economic industry in a city, but you don't have to worry, we will help you promote your Sirius City more after you go back."

"Of course, even if we don't publicize it, at least some chambers of commerce and merchants in the Principality of Ryan will soon come here to do business. After all, your title of Lord of the Silver Wolf is very useful. 35

Lenerson said with a smile: "This time your speed is too fast, even Father Father did not expect that you can build Sirius City within a month. Originally, the establishment of every main city is a major event in the principality. As a lord, you should have held a grand celebration and invited a large number of nobles to visit here."

"Similarly, the nobles will prepare gifts to congratulate you, and your father will also bless you... but you are too fast..."

Lenerson shrugged: "Without a huge celebration, many civilians of the Chamber of Commerce in the Principality are skeptical of the completion of Sirius City, that's why it's been a month, and Sirius City's business is still in the initial stage 々||.

"It turns out that it seems that I was not thoughtful enough.

As a newcomer, Alan didn't know much about these rules, and it was only when he heard Lenerson's words that it came to his mind.

"But don't worry, after I go back, I will use the prince's name to inform the whole country, so that everyone can believe it."

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness.""

Alan laughed suddenly.

"Hahaha, Alan, I already treat you as a friend, so don't be so polite to me."

Lenerson smiled and patted Alan on the shoulder.

Alan doesn't dislike that either, and in fact being friends with Lenerson is not bad for him.

They entertained the prince and princess brothers and sisters who came to congratulate on behalf of the Grand Duke, and the two of them did not stop there, and set off back to the capital early the next morning.

After all, this is Lenerson as a prince, and the heavy responsibility he bears is still huge, and there is not much leisure time.

Alan returned all the magic books he had borrowed before to Lei Xue, and he had almost finished reading it during this time.

After sending the two away, Alan returned to the castle.

"Sir, with the recent increase in the population, large-scale farmland has been reclaimed outside the city, and the farm tools, crop seeds, and cattle for cultivating the fields are all materials that are urgently needed by the Heavenly Wolf City recently.

Alan sat in the office hall specially set up by the castle.

This is a specially set up hall in the earl's castle, which is used for the officials in the city to come to the castle every day to report to the earl, or to discuss things.

The decoration of the hall is extremely luxurious. In the center is a long table. Alan sits in the first seat. Next to him are Marco and Sparrow. Below Marco are several knights of the fifth and sixth levels. These are some knights recruited by Alan. After all, in such a large territory, it is impossible for only Marko to assist Alan.

There are also some civilian officials under Sparrow, who are responsible for all aspects of population, agriculture, animal husbandry, fishery and so on.

The one who is talking is a middle-aged man who is in charge of agriculture and is reporting the current situation to Alan at the moment.

"Sparrow has already communicated with the Roland Chamber of Commerce about this issue, to buy the best things at the lowest price. By the way, Sparrow, how is our factory?"

Alan said casually.

"Returning to the lord, the factory has been moved from the thorns flower collar to the Sirius collar. Three huge industrial areas have been designed in the south, not far from Sirius City. So far, we have enough to supply the demand of the entire country of the Principality of Lane. The next step is to prepare continue to expand."

"Also, my lord, it seems that His Royal Highness the Second Prince has paid attention to our factory recently, and has sent people here to check it out several times, it seems that he wants to intervene in our factory.

When Sparrow said this, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes.

Alan raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the words: "Don't worry about him, move on to the next item."

"My lord, in addition to Sirius City, we also have Nikya Seaport in the south, which is an excellent place, allowing us to do a lot of export trade with the Earl of Honeysuckle and the others, we provide them with a lot of land products, and they provide us with Provide marine products.

The person in charge of the fishery is a competent female official. I heard that she used to be an official in the marquis and has a good ability.

"Well...Ms. Jennifer, your proposal is good, allowing this plan, but we don't have many ships, Sparrow, for this matter, I need some ships, damn, I need a shipyard! 35

Alan held his forehead and said.

The Earl of Honeysuckle is the earl that was previously entrusted by the Duke of Lane to the land of the Blue Moon Principality.

Although their fiefdoms are not as fertile as the land on the mainland, the advantage is that they don't need to increase the hard development territory like Alan, because the Blue Moon Principality has already developed well, and now it just changed its owner.

It can be said that there are advantages and disadvantages.

Similarly, as aristocrats who are accustomed to life on land, they need a lot of products on land to live at sea for a long time.

This is a business opportunity, and Alan decided to take advantage of it.

"."Sir, we are running out of gold coins..."

Sparrow showed a helpless look.

Alan's eyes widened: "Not much?"

"Yes, although most of the wood and stone materials were self-sufficient in the previous construction of the main city, there are still some expensive materials that need to be purchased. At the same time, we also bought slaves in large quantities, and the adults also built ten towns at the same time. In addition to reclaiming farmland, paving roads, etc., millions of gold coins have been spent... At present, the gold coins in our hands are only about 1.5 million, but considering the large quantities of farm tools, and our labor ( How about the import of raw materials from the Zhao) factory, and the expenses you need to train your warriors recently, my lord... Of course, as well as the equipment of your tauren army and centaur army..."

Sparrow didn't say a word, and the corner of Alan's mouth twitched once. Finally, the shrewd financial officer even twisted his finger to calculate, and then shrugged at Alan: "Sir, we need at least three million gold coins in the next month. !

Alan sighed after hearing this. Although his territory was developing rapidly, his gold coins were not enough.

Without money, the speed of development can only be slowed down, which is why some territories take decades to develop.

Because they have no money, not everyone is as rich as Alan and has three hugely profitable industrial chains that bring a steady stream of financial support.

Even after Alan made a drastic move, he still encountered financial difficulties.

"Looks like I have to figure out a way to make money..."

Alan rubbed his eyebrows and said.
