Chapter 18 New Crisis, Breakthrough and Land Division

At night, Weilin stood in front of the window of a wooden house, looking at the night view of the Praying Star Lake, and his body and mind were relaxed.

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

[Three months later, three thousand kilometers west of the Praying Star Lake, two red dragons and a golden dragon fought a war, and the monsters rioted. They will hit the northwest province of the Kingdom of Ilia in six months. The monsters coming to the Praying Star Lake are mostly jackals, and the strongest is the low-level silver. ]

"Six months later, a crisis will come."

Hearing this news, Weilin was like being struck by thunder. He ran to this place just for safety, but why can't he get rid of these things.

Now there are two ways in front of him.

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

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

Walking back and forth in the room, Weilin suddenly stopped, his eyes sharp, looking through the window into the depths of the wilderness.

"It's so hard to get a start, how can I give up? It's just a group of jackals. I don't believe I can't defend the Lake of Praying Stars."

However, in order to strengthen the defense 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, and strive 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 special critical point was reached.

Then, Weilin suddenly opened his eyes and smiled: "Finally broke through, it's worth my diligent training for more than a month."

From the bronze intermediate level to the bronze high level, the fighting spirit in the body increased by one section.

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

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

"My Lord, I am here to hand in the task."

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

"Not bad, awakening the fighting spirit in half a month and becoming a knight squire, you have good talent."

Kyle knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Thank you for giving Kyle the opportunity, Master. I am willing to swear with my life that I will always be loyal to you and never betray you."

After hearing this, Weilin handed the sword to Orlando, helped Kyle up, and said with relief: "You have fought for all this. I said that if you awaken the fighting spirit within half a month, I will accept you as my knight squire."

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

"Thank you, Lord."

Kyle saluted Weilin respectfully with excitement and reverence in his eyes.

"Orlando."

"Lord."

"Kyle's fighting spirit attribute is fire, and further teaching of him is left to you."

"I will obey your orders."

Wei Lin looked at the gradually mature Orlando, patted his shoulder, reached into his pocket, took out seven intermediate magic crystals from the space ring, and handed them to him.

"Lord, what is this?" Orlando looked at the seven intermediate magic crystals in his hand, staring at the boss.

He saw with his own eyes that 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, 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 you three. The danger is coming, you must speed up to improve your strength."

"Yes, Lord." The three answered in unison.

Two days later, the first phase of the farmland reclamation plan, the next step is the process of dividing the field.

In an open space, 39 freemen, 124 serfs and 42 cannon fodder slaves all arrived, looking at the figures divided into squares on the wooden board. Except for the robber slaves, everyone else's eyes were full of expectations.

Five thousand acres of land, according to 20 acres per square, were divided into 250 squares by Weilin.

"After your efforts, we completed the reclamation task in early June, and these lands will be granted to you next."

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

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

As for the robber slaves, they did not have this treatment. As a group of dregs, they could only be squeezed dry and then disposed of.

Weilin stood by and observed, it was simply a variety of life.

The freemen or farmers who were drawn near the Praying Star Lake happily pressed their handprints on the contract documents.

Those who were drawn to remote areas seemed to have lost half of their spirit and were listless.

Those who were waiting were so excited that they could not bear it. Seeing the good land being taken away one by one, they were so anxious that they could not do anything.

When everything was over, 163 contract documents were placed in front of Weilin, representing that 3,260 acres of land were granted, which also meant that he had 2,358 acres of tax land.

As for the remaining robber slaves, they would be real slaves, working day and night in a designated area until the end of their lives.

As soon as the free people and serfs got the land, they ran to their respective areas and wrote their names on the notice board.

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

"My 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."

"Well, that's good."

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 affairs in the territory."

"Yes, Lord."

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