Chapter 39 Granting subordinates and inspecting castle construction

"Master, is this the seven-color life flower?"

Baird was so surprised when he saw what was in the box.

Except for Orlando and Hebrew, the other eleven people were also shocked. Looking at the flowers in the box emitting strange light, their hearts were pounding.

When they were receiving training at Windsor Castle, they were fortunate to hear their instructors explain it.

This magical plant that only existed in rumors actually appeared in front of them, which was incredible.

"Yes, this is the seven-color life flower."

While Weilin nodded to confirm, he released his fighting spirit to show his ironclad evidence of being a silver knight.

This move shocked Baird and the twelve people even more.

A day ago, the master was still a high-level bronze, but now he has become a low-level silver, and the knight he sensed was not like the one who had just entered the silver level with a disordered breath, and his fighting spirit was very stable.

"Today, each of you will get a seven-color life flower to improve your talent and strength."

Everyone was grateful and half-knelt on the ground: "Thank you for the gift of the Lord."

"For the knights who are loyal to me, I will not hesitate to cultivate them. Your loyalty is the best reward for me."

Then, Weilin called each knight to his side, gave them seven-color life flowers one by one, and sent them blessings.

After the fourteen people got a seven-color life flower, Weilin looked at the excited people and immediately announced the dissolution of the meeting, asking them to go back and take it, break through their talents, and improve their strength.

After everyone left, Weilin looked at the remaining eight seven-color life flowers in the box and fell into deep thought.

"Let's keep it."

He made up his mind that no matter whether he had the talent for cultivation or not, as long as he proved his loyalty and value, he would get a seven-color life flower from him.

In the next few days, the twelve knights led by Baird took the seven-color life flower and made breakthroughs one after another and grew into silver knights.

Judging by the number alone, at the level of baron, the number of silver knights in Qixing Lake can be ranked in the top three in the province of Kadero.

As a result, the combat power of the entire territory was directly broken.

"No, there is no bronze-level in the territory. This is a bit bad."

Then, Weilin issued a notice as a lord, allowing Baird and twelve others to recruit knight attendants, not more than six people, and he would bear the corresponding resource allocation.

Now, Weilin could not gather thousands of knight attendants like Windsor Castle and have them taught by special silver knights.

On the one hand, he did not have the talent in this area, and on the other hand, he did not have the resources to support him to do so.

Therefore, he could only rely on this ancient inheritance system to slowly cultivate bronze knights in a one-to-many mode.

In order to stimulate their enthusiasm, Weilin also issued a notice that within a year, the more bronze knights a knight cultivated and the better the quality, the reward would be a magic plant.

So, Baird and others began to select good seedlings throughout the territory and recruit knight attendants.

In a short period of time, everyone in the entire territory was boiling, whether they were freemen or serfs, warriors or civilians, everyone had a knight dream.

In the Lake of Praying Stars, slave shackles can be removed. As long as you become a knight's squire, you will become free, which further stimulates those young serfs.

Of course, as a third-class slave like a robber slave, there will be no hope.

The population of the Lake of Praying Stars is very healthy, most of them are between fifteen and twenty years old, thanks to the emphasis on Weilin when he asked for ransom from the defeated nobles.

As the territory entered a stage of rapid development, Baird led the army to patrol around all day, hunt and kill wild beasts and monsters that roamed here, and maintain the safety of the surroundings.

Andrew was stationed at the salt mine, leading a squadron of infantry, supervising the third-class slaves to mine, and ensuring the daily output of mineral salt.

Randolph took over Baird's task, leading two squadrons of infantry, a squadron of archers and three hundred serfs, and conscientiously mined the mithril mine, striving to complete the excavation in the shortest time to avoid accidents.

Greg organized the free people and serfs in the territory to collect food in batches within a radius of ten kilometers from the Lake of Praying Stars, implementing the policy of leaving no roots for grass, no bark for trees, and clearing the fields.

The remaining eight knights all had their own tasks, responsible for all aspects of the territory, and ensuring the normal operation of the Lake of Praying Stars.

On this day, after Weilin finished his rest, he felt that his strength had been significantly improved. He couldn't help but sigh again that after his talent was improved, he could practice with half the effort.

"Sir, the chief steward Eunice, who is in charge of the castle construction, invites you to come over."

"Okay, I got it."

After the reporting soldier withdrew, Weilin began to wipe the sweat off his body, put on his shirt, took his sword, and went to the castle construction site.

Along the way, Weilin felt very relieved to see the clean and tidy roads. Unlike other territories, the streets were paved with feces and urine, and the smell was overwhelming.

"Sure enough, the sanitation problem is solved from the root, and the effect is very great."

As the saying goes, if you can't solve the sanitation problem, can't you solve the people who create the sanitation problem?

In Qixing Lake, anyone who urinates or defecates anywhere will be punished with three iron whips for the first time, and will be fined and have their property confiscated for the second time. The third time will be demoted to a third-class slave, and will lose the hope of becoming a free man forever.

After this decree was issued, no one dared to violate it.

They were all born slaves, so they naturally knew that the days when they lost their freedom and hope were painful, tortured and dark.

After a distance of several hundred meters, Verin arrived at the castle construction site.

What comes into view are two city walls with staggered heights, namely the outer city wall and the inner city wall. A crossbow is being placed on the protruding boss to adjust the shooting angle.

The half-elf girl Eunice who was waiting at the city gate saw Verin arriving and stepped forward to salute: "Lord."

"Well, Eunice, you did a good job, and you completed the construction of two city walls so quickly." Welin looked away, looked at the beautiful half-elf girl in front of him, and praised him without hesitation.

"Lord, I'm overrated. I'm just a general manager. It's these hard-working workers who really contribute." After a period of adaptation, the half-elf girl Eunice was no longer alienated as before, with a calm tone in her voice.

"They will get the rewards they deserve." Weilin heard this and said with a smile, "I want to know now, how is the progress?"

Hearing this, Eunice asked someone to bring a table and unfold the plan, which was marked with two colors.

"Please see, my lord, the black mark represents completed construction, the white mark represents unfinished construction, and the green mark represents under construction."

Weilin looked down and saw that the first phase of the previously determined construction plan, including the outer city wall, inner city wall, external water storage area, grain warehouse and toilets, had been completed, and the weapons repair site and stables were under construction.
