My Empire War Game

Suren’s lord’s castle is hurrying to build it. On the design drawings, his lord’s castle is very magnificent and majestic. However, considering the actual situation, only a part of it can be built first, and the other places are temporarily reserved until he has enough time and money Later, the construction continued.

　　 It's not that he doesn't want to capture more slaves to work for himself. The key issue is food. Without enough food, it is simply impossible to feed more people. The first batch of 500 acres of farmland has been planted with potatoes. These potatoes will mature before winter at the earliest. Now Sulun plans to further expand the planting of potatoes.

　　 The first batch of cultivated land is very fertile, even if there is no fertilizer, the yield here will not be low. Except for some of these lands in Suren, the rest is prepared to distribute these lands through military rewards, external sales, or distribution to creditable slaves.

As long as the land is planted with crops, the territory will receive agricultural taxes, and the sale of the land will also receive a sum of money, so that his territory will have a stable source of income. Of course, this is the best situation. The territory is completely a place where birds don't shit, and no free people are willing to come.

　　 So this method is over before it starts. If you want to attract free people to increase the population of your territory, you might as well buy slaves.

Surun’s territory is like an upside-down bowl. The camp is at the highest point of the bowl. At the edge of the bowl is surrounded by two rivers. The surrounding area is plain. Suren also measured it when he patrolled the territory during this period. Land that can be cultivated in the territory.

Then mark it out on the strategic map and make some calculations. The land that can be reclaimed exceeds 200 square kilometers. If all of this land is reclaimed, at least 300,000 mu of arable land can be reclaimed. This large amount of farmland can feed 350,000 people. It is more than enough.

　　 Of course, even if the territory develops, the monsters in the wilderness still need to be eliminated.

　　 Two days later, Johnson returned with dozens of barbarian women and children. With these dozens of barbarian women and children joining the territory, the manpower in the territory finally became less nervous.

　　 These barbarian women and children were very curious about the territory, but they quickly invested in the construction, because according to the reward standard set by Sulun, these barbarian warriors can get the field for their merits, and they can get rid of their slave status and become citizens of the territory. Knowing that they could get rid of their slave status and become free people, these barbarians burst out with a strong passion, and one by one they invested in the construction of the territory.

　　 Surun was surprised that in addition to the barbarians, there was a caravan of people returning with Johnson. This caravan has forty-two four-wheeled carriages, and the entire caravan has more than 150 people.

　　 "Honorable Lord, I am Owen, the steward of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce, and I am very glad to see you here." A plump body, a flash of light in his eyes from time to time.

　　 "My caravan needs to pass through your territory, and we will pay taxes according to normal standards."

"Owen, your caravan is going to the depths of the wilderness?" Suren is very interested in Owen. Caravans that dare to enter the wilderness are not weak. Given the danger of the wilderness, the caravans with insufficient strength are very likely to die here. This caravan actually dared to walk in the wilderness, it seems that the strength is absolutely powerful.

　　 At the same time, this also shows that they will definitely have huge profits on this trip. If there is no high enough profit, how can these unprofitable caravans come here with huge risks.

Mr. Lu Xun said well, if there is a 10% profit, capital will be guaranteed to be used everywhere; with 20% profit, capital can be activated; with 50% profit, capital will take risks; for 100% profit, Capital dares to trample on all human laws; with a profit of more than 300%, capital dares to commit any crimes, even risking their heads.

　　Su Lun is already going crazy now, how could he miss any chance to make a fortune?

Irving was also surprised in his heart, surprised that this nobleman actually established a pioneering base here. As a caravan that often walks in the wilderness, they know how difficult it is to build a camp here, the wolves in the wilderness. Human tribes are not so easy to deal with.

　　 Thousands of jackals are adding more goblin kobolds and trolls. With such a lineup, even a thousand well-trained elite human soldiers will not necessarily win, more often it will hurt both sides. Moreover, a five-meter-high city wall has actually been built in this territory. How much manpower and material resources would it take to build such a stone wall.

　　 You must know that it is more than two hundred kilometers away from the nearest Blackrock City. To maintain a thousand human army and build such a wall, the cost of it can make most nobles bankrupt.

　　 The young human noble in front of him dared to build a city in this place. What is more surprising is that he found a large number of goblin kobold and jackal slaves in this territory. This means that they have a firm foothold here.

　　 "Yes, your lord, our caravan is ready to enter the depths of the wasteland and trade with some other races."

　　 "Jackal?"

　　 "No, jackals prefer to rob directly. We are trading with the Elend tribe in the north, they are a group of centaur."

　　 "Centaur?" Su Lun said in surprise.

"Correct."

　　 Next, Su Lun wanted to continue to prepare for inquiries, but Owen had no intention to speak about the content of the transaction. But even if Owen didn't say anything, Su Lun probably knew what they were trading.

　　 is nothing more than bows and arrows, horses, and some wasteland specialties, fur or magic materials. Centaur is good at raising horses, and their tribe’s longbows are also very famous. The caravan used to trade food and other necessities of life. At least ten times more profit once and again.

　　 "Well, I agree to let your caravan rest here, but according to the rules you need to pay 10% of the tax." Su Lun quickly agreed.

　　 "Of course you can pay kinnal or food."

　　 "Thank you, your benevolent lord, we will prepare the tax soon." Hearing what Sulun said, Owen nodded, and 10% of the tax was within the normal range. In fact, Irving also considered not paying taxes, but after seeing the size of the territory, he dispelled the idea. Don’t be surprised. Few merchants who trade in the wilderness are good people. They even often appear as robbers. Loot some territories.

　　 Although Surun’s territory looks very crude, the power it represents is not something ordinary people can do. Without the guarantee of strong force, they would never be able to defeat the monster army. Not to mention the capture of so many wilderness natives as slaves.
