Chapter 137
Rand, who was originally in the lord's hall, couldn't help but touch Elsa, also heard a vibrating sound.
Compared to the violent vibration that was like an earthquake at the beginning, now there are only a few sounds, and there is not much impact except noise.
However, Rand was still ordering the alchemy workshop to produce alchemy potions that can damage the magic steel plate armor, and the development of blast furnaces has slowed down.
Rand knew something on the tenth floor, but he didn't know why this thing suddenly started.
It seems that there is no trend to reach the surface at the moment, but he needs to prepare early.
With my impression of the "Deep Moon" game promotional video, the tenth layer of magical steel golem is even bigger and stronger. I wonder if Ellie's interference bead can still work.
Chapter 205 Fishman, Mermaid, and Naga
The fief obtained by the second son of Earl Feihu is on the verge of the inland sea.
This inland sea is large and connected to the outer sea.
More than a dozen countries have borders with the inland sea.
And there are countless marine creatures living in the inland sea.
Some of these wise or slightly wise marine creatures have had a serious impact on coastal countries.
At least the trade in fishing and marine routes will be affected by these aquatic intelligent creatures.
Some powerful Linhai countries will form special patrol patrol self-defense forces to hunt these aquatic intelligent creatures that are wet but can be active on land for a period of time.
And now, a human visitor appeared in a Naga tribe.
This is a bard wearing a feathered hat and holding a musical instrument in his hand.
Whether it is a mermaid, Naga, or a fishman, the relationship with humans is not very good. From the perspective of humans, they are harassing human fishing ships and trade ships.
But in their eyes, human fishing boats would not care whether they were catching ordinary fish, or they were.
Human merchant ships have been passing by the sea, and their impact on their lives is far greater than that of the dangerous creatures in the ocean.
Moreover, compared with mermaids, which basically stay in the sea, Naga and fishman have a worse relationship with humans because they move around the shore from time to time and look for food.
However, among humans, bards are of the type that cannot be attacked by Naga.
The minstrels have a good language talent, and sometimes they trade with Naga, such as using some utensils or precious coins to exchange for some objects in the sea, or just for some stories.
The leader of the Naga tribe met the bard, took a faint look, and said, "What's the matter?"
Most of the minstrels are bold and bold. They are not nervous when facing the surrounding Naga's eye, and they do a manner that is not necessarily standard, but must not be offensive: "Sir, this time I came here, representing some humans. The goodwill of the noble…”
On the other hand, Fenris arranged for the Baron who was loyal to Rand to return to his territory.
He also arranged some troops at the den.
As for what the Baron of the Tulan family wants to do, should he turn against the enemy at the last minute, or just convey information, or lead the way in secret.
Rand's instructions to Fenris were to act according to the opportunity.
Fenris is actually under a lot of pressure. Rand trusts his abilities so much, but in fact he doesn't have much confidence.
He was a little confident after he finished his studies, but since last time he saw Rand standing between flesh and blood like a flag and leading his army to defeat enemies twice as many as his own, he was less confident.
Moreover, Rand's trust cannot increase Fenris' confidence, because compared with military level, Rand's ability to recognize people is very poor in Fenris's eyes.
So far, I have not discovered that Taner is from the Torch Church. I only doubt him, an insider who is completely unfamiliar with undercover agents, after a while, and later I have no doubts at all.
Although it is good not to be discovered, it is inexplicably unhappy to be so affirmed by the lord who has no ability to recognize people.
But he doesn't want to fail either.
After the Baron of the Tulan family planted some troops, Fenris began to prepare for further expansion of the influence of the den power on the surrounding forces.
Nowadays, the villagers, robbers, soldiers and knights of nearby nobles who were forced to work, no longer had any intention of resisting.
Due to the shortage of people, the pressure of busy farming in spring is very high, which has led to the great pressure on these people to work. Until now, they have no energy to resist.
Moreover, although they worked hard, they did not live a painful life. At least their food was good and their residence was not very good, at least they would not be frozen.
Finris finished reading today's work summary tiredly, pulled a seat from the side and signaled Tata to sit down: "You don't need to stand, just sit."
Tata did not refuse and sat on the stool where Fenris pulled over.
Fenris asked, "Have the supplies and money arrived?"
"Sir, the supplies have arrived, but there is no money," Tata said. "Sir Rand said there is no extra money now."
The money mentioned here does not mean that there is really no money. The economic cycle of the den power is very good now, but most of the coins are exchanged for materials, or circulated in people's hands or in the market. The money that exists in the warehouse is not many.
In fact, there are many coins in the den. The only money in this world is copper coins, silver coins and gold coins, which means copper, silver, and gold are needed.
Moreover, coins will wear out in circulation.
The speed of money output in this world is not as fast as the speed of deflation and the speed of coin wear.
However, most of the time, materials can be used to make up for the lack of coins when trading and paying taxes, so the impact is not particularly great.
At present, Rand has no good idea about this. Now he issuing paper money is seeking death.
"Master Rand said you should send something to deal with it," Tata continued, "and Master Rand said you can consider starting to select some people to be promoted to labor captains."
Fenris did not think about the logic inside. Anyway, he would obey Rand's orders. At present, it seems that Rand's instructions have not been missed anywhere.
It can even be said that it can always work miraculously inexplicable places.
For example, because of a labor camp, the Baron of the Tulan family decided to inform him.
At first he had not tried to interrogate the baron, but even the baron was unwilling to say it even if it was a threat of death. However, after the labor reform, he was willing to inform him and planned to swear allegiance to Rand.
"Then give some food." Fenris ordered.
Because of the initial concern that it would not be fulfilled, Fenris did not promise anything to the captured villagers, but just asked them to work and promised that they would not starve to death and freeze to death.
Now you can give them a little surprise.
As long as they do not resist and the den forces can always occupy this land, these villagers will become the power of the den forces.
But there is still a problem at the moment, that is, the staff are still insufficient. The villagers and prisoners in their hands are barely enough for agricultural production, but they cannot be able to repair the city walls, repair roads, or even build engineering equipment.
Now the full moon collar needs more people.
This problem needs to be solved by Fenris himself. Before Fenris set off, Rand made it clear to him that there was no extra manpower for the den.
There has always been a shortage of people in dens, and Fenris is very clear about this. There is a shortage of people in den construction, and there is a shortage of people in all aspects of resort villas. The land and infrastructure of crescent moon are shortage of people, and the villages of crescent moon are also shortage of people.
There is no shortage of people in the den, so it is obviously impossible to let Rand arrange manpower for him.
If you solve it yourself—
The damage caused by war to this land is huge. The burning, killing, looting, and the cold winter that has passed have at least reduced the population of this land by at least two-thirds.
Now the population that can be found in the Full Moon Gate is basically under the control of Fenris. When I think of gaining more people, I can only look elsewhere.
"Show me the territory information of Viscount Perot." Fenris said to Tata.
Elsa is the person in charge of intelligence and criminal investigation, but recently, in order to adapt to the situation, some intelligence personnel have served Fenris specifically.
Fenris has always been very clear about the situation of at least a few neighbors now.
Just as the latest revised content in the compulsory study of war studies says, the acquisition of intelligence cannot be achieved by scouts alone, war is a derivative of politics and economy.
The means of war can also be derived from politics and economy.
Missionaries nearby, potential villagers, merchants, and bribed lower-class noble officials can all be the sources of intelligence, and the role of intelligence in war is self-evident.
Tata took the documents from the sorted cabinet and handed them to Fenris.
Fenris glanced at it again. Now, their neighbor Viscount Perot had generally occupied the main buildings in his territory, but there were many enemy troops in the countryside, as well as villagers and bandits who organized to resist.
There are also some believers of the God of Striving.
It should not be possible to put into production in a short period of time.
Moreover, these people who are not used by Perot may not be able to be used by the Full Moon Corner. They are all human beings, aren’t they? Fenris is not so disgusted with cultists now, and now he thinks cultists can work.
The nearby roads were not seriously damaged, and the territory from Full Moon to Perot was not far away. Fenris felt that it was completely possible to operate.
Finris touched his chin and said to Tata, "You said we will help Viscount Perot, and just tell him that if he is willing to pay the money, we can help them deal with some enemies in the wild."
"The relationship between Earl Flying Fox and Viscount Rand is very poor, and it should be defined as a hostile relationship at present." Tata reminded.
Fenris smiled and said, "But I don't think this will affect our making money from Perot. We are short of money, so we can plunder his territory and collect money. I think it's very cost-effective."
Moreover, Fenris felt that Perot would agree. Judging from the intelligence, the threat from the wild must have made the second son of the Flying Fox Earl in a mess.
Although Perot's military strength is currently far stronger than the Full Moon Leader, Perot's enemies are far more than the Full Moon Leader.
Perot must be very anxious now.
In fact, Perot's occupation speed and the degree to which he calmed the chaos were not slow, but Fenris was faster, and Fenris did not hide the full moon collar.
The three viscounts pioneers, as pioneers, naturally had a competitive relationship. It is obvious that which side can get more if they are faster.
But as the nobles of the Frost Moon Kingdom, they have common enemies and can cooperate. How to choose depends on the individual.
"I'll make arrangements now." Tata nodded, stood up and left.
Chapter 206 The instructions of the King of Canhong and the maid outfit in progress
The King of Canhong doesn't know what to do.
In fact, she felt that it was not unacceptable to let go of this way at first. She didn't know how to maintain the Torch Church.
Now the Torch Church is divided into three factions, pointing to each other as heresy.
The Chuxin faction headed by her is naturally heretic in the eyes of the other two parties.
And she herself was assassinated.
The assassin was quite ridiculous for her. The assassin turned into ashes before he got close to her, but it was still a very bad signal.
The strength of the king is difficult to define in this world. If the king does not see the king, then at the level of "king", there are almost no one who dies in battle.
Perhaps only a few monsters recorded in epics, such as some legendary dragons, giant monsters in the sea, or unknown creatures hidden in the anoplane, can lead to the fall of the "king".
But the powerful monsters in epics are generally believed in the current human society that they were fabricated by the bard. Anyway, no one has seen them for a long time.
The level of "king" is hard to be killed by normal troops and may be exhausted, but escaping on the battlefield is easy.
As for gathering a large number of powerful top professionals to try to siege and kill?
Anyway, the most senior professionals would not do such stupid things.
Karin didn't know how she would be killed, but the poison in front of her probably wouldn't work.
The assassin not only used a dagger, but also put poison in advance, but unfortunately she discovered it.
It's just a pity that I wasted a glass of prepared juice.
Karin decided to go to the Holy City and the New Holy City to ask what those people were thinking.
Although she did not want to start the cleaning, she knew very well that going to the Holy City this time would definitely lead to the birth of many new deaths in this world.
"King" is definitely not a monster that cannot be killed. Karin doesn't know where her limit is, but she is very sure that she has limits, just don't know the turtle gang in the Holy City and the construction of the new Holy City Can the utilitarians make her bleed?
Or, will you be convinced?
After all, she didn't know what to do.
She believes that the Torch Church should practice the philosophy at the beginning, but it is obvious that it is not easy to maintain the philosophy at the beginning now.
The division of the Torch Church also has her problems.
But at least for now, she never agrees with their behavior
Karin shook the prepared juice in the cup, which cost her 5 silver coins plus 50 copper coins.
I heard that at the resort villa in Crooked Moon Leng, the juice made with ice is only 4 silver coins.
Unfortunately, she had no time to go to the resort villa, which is now the Adventurer's Holy Land, to take a look.
Originally, she planned to learn how to make novel things and learn some economic ideas to save the Torch Church, but now it seems that there is no such opportunity.
But what if she successfully integrates the Torch Church and unify the Torch Church?
Then the economic problems will become her nightmare again. The donation agreed by the White Kingdom and the Frost Moon Kingdom will not repent, but it is still far from enough.
