Lord: Harvest two talented teenagers at the beginning

Chapter 18 New Crisis, Breakthroughs and Dividing Fields



At night, Weilin stood in front of the window of a wooden house, looking at the night view of the Lake of Prayer for Stars, feeling relaxed physically and mentally.

At eight o'clock, the guidance of fate was activated again, bringing valuable news to Weilin.

[Three months later, three thousand kilometers west of the Lake of Prayer for Stars, a battle broke out between two red dragons and a golden dragon. The monsters rioted and will attack the northwest province of the Kingdom of Ilia in six months and come towards the Lake of Prayer for Stars. Most of the monsters are jackals, with the highest strength being low-level silver. 】

"Six months from now, there's going to be a crisis."

Hearing the news, Weilin felt as if he had been struck by a thunderbolt. He ran to this place just for safety, but he couldn't get rid of these things.

There were two paths before him now.

First, stop the development of the Lake of Praying Stars and find a safe place to temporarily avoid the danger, but this will waste a year.

Second, continue to develop. Within six months, as long as one person breaks through to the low level of Silver, he will be able to defend the territory of Lake of Star Prayer.

Walking back and forth in the room, Weilin suddenly stopped and looked through the window into the depths of the wasteland with sharp eyes.

"I finally got a start, how could I give up? It's just a group of jackals. I still can't hold on to the Lake of Praying Stars."

However, in order to enhance the protective power of the territory, he had to buy slaves and compete for strength.

In addition, blacksmiths, carpenters and masons, as well as urgently needed architects, must also be bought back to build a castle that is easy to defend and difficult to attack within six months.

The next morning, Weilin practiced in the open space in front of the wooden house as usual.

Suddenly, a certain critical point is reached.

Then, Weilin suddenly opened his eyes with a smile on his face: "I finally made a breakthrough. My hard training for more than a month has been in vain."

Breaking through from the intermediate bronze level to the high level bronze, the fighting spirit in the body increased by one level.

In addition, the wood attribute fighting spirit has strong recovery and endurance, which means that his own confidence has increased a bit.

At this time, two brothers, Orlando and Hebrew, came over with a young man.

"My lord, my subordinates are here to hand over the task."

After hearing this, Verin stood up, looked at Kyle behind Orlando, and nodded.

"Yes, I awakened my fighting spirit in half a month and became a knight squire. I have a good talent."

Kyle knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Thank you master for giving Kyle the opportunity. I am willing to swear on my life to be loyal to the master forever and never betray."

After hearing this, Verin handed the sword to Orlando, helped Kyle up, and said happily: "You have earned all this. I said that if you awaken your fighting spirit within half a month, I will accept you as mine." Knight's Squire."

"From now on, you and Orlando can just call me Lord."

"Thank you, Lord."

Kyle's eyes were full of excitement and reverence, and he saluted Verin respectfully.

"Orlando."

"Lord."

"Kyle's fighting spirit attribute is fire, and I leave his further instruction to you."

"Follow your orders."

Verin looked at the increasingly mature Orlando, patted his shoulder, put his hand into his pocket, took out seven intermediate magic crystals from the space ring, and handed them to him.

"My lord, what is this?" Orlando looked at the seven intermediate magic crystals in his hand and stared at the boss.

He watched with his own eyes as the other eleven knights were willing to do the work of digging the river for a low-level magic crystal, working hard and without complaint.

"I said, become my guardian knight, and I will focus on training you two."

"Four of them are rewards for you two brothers, and the other three are used as training resources for the three of you. The crisis is coming, and you must speed up improving your strength."

"Yes, my lord." The three of them replied in unison.

Two days later, the first phase of farmland reclamation was planned, followed by the process of dividing the fields.

In an open space, thirty-nine freedmen, one hundred and twenty-four serfs and forty-two cannon fodder slaves were all present. They looked at the patterns divided into squares on the wooden board. Except for the robber slaves, everyone else His eyes were full of expectation.

The five thousand acres of land were divided into 250 squares by Weilin according to the grid of twenty acres.

"Through your efforts, we completed the reclamation task in early June, and then these lands will be awarded to you."

"Next, each of you will draw lots to decide the land you will farm."

Then Orlando read the names one by one, and first the freemen came forward to draw lots, followed by the serfs.

As for the robber slaves, they do not have this treatment. As a group of remnants, they only have the fate of being drained of their use value and then disposed of.

Wei Lin stood aside and observed, it was just like all kinds of things in life.

The freedmen or farmers who were drawn near Lake of Praying Stars happily pressed their fingerprints on the contract document.

People who were drawn to remote areas seemed to have lost half of their energy and were listless.

Those who were waiting were extremely excited and helpless as they watched the good places being taken away.

After everything was over, one hundred and sixty-three deed documents were placed in front of Weilin, representing that 3260 acres of land had been granted, which also meant that he had 2358 acres of tax land.

As for the remaining robber slaves, they will work as real slaves in a designated area day and night until the end of their lives.

As soon as the freedmen and serfs obtained the land, they ran to their respective areas and wrote their names on the notice boards.

Verin asked Orlando to take the contract document back to his room, and then called Andrew, the deputy captain of the Knight Guard, over.

"Lord."

As soon as the knight Andrew received the news, he hurried over.

"How are you doing with the jicama seedlings I asked you to prepare?"

"My Lord, the preparations have been completed. According to your instructions, it is more than enough to plant three thousand acres of farmland."

"that's fine."

Hearing that there were so many jicama seedlings, Weilin nodded with satisfaction.

He planned to let freedmen and serfs plant three thousand acres of beans and potatoes at the end of June, and harvest a batch of grain in September to increase his grain reserves for the coming year, which would make it easier for him to expand the population of his territory.

But jicama can only be grown once in a while. The crop contains small amounts of toxins and causes serious damage to the land.

A fertile field will become barren after several seasons of jicama.

However, with rotational planting of soybeans, this problem will be solved.

However, in this situation, obtaining food is the top priority. In the future, he plans to set up a special official position to educate farmers about this to avoid an irreversible decline in food production.

"Tell Baird that I will go to the Cardero Province for a while, and he will handle all the matters in the territory."

"Yes, my lord."

After Andrew left, Verin returned to his room to prepare for tomorrow's trip.
