  Lyren felt himself twitching hard inside.

   is too advanced, too unexpected, too... surprising.

   He had been away for less than a month, and the dwarves of the Barondom had all built dwarf gyroplanes?

   The human army in their own territory has just started to use muskets and mortars, and the dwarves have already marched into the sky? No wonder the long-bearded dwarves Langone-Stonehelm and Karg-Bronzebeard laughed so brightly.

   "The younger brother of a human being is a younger brother, and he is a scumbag!"

   Yurika was also shocked for a while, and said quietly: "Your territory is a little too different from others."

  Lyren's face was indescribably embarrassing, and he could only smile bitterly: "Eureka, you know, this... this is indeed a bit too advanced."

   "Really?" The witch hunter smiled knowingly, she deliberately lengthened the ending so that the young baron couldn't tell whether it was approval or ridicule.

  Langoni’s hearty and rough laughter was still echoing. The propeller of the dwarf rotorcraft stirred a whirlwind and whistled away. On the road and in the fields, countless people looked up and watched.

Laylen and Eureka moved on, the witch hunter hesitated for a moment, but still said to Laylen: "I heard that there are many dwarves living here in Oak Town, and there is even a dwarf community, you and the sons of the mountains. Some kind of agreement? Or because of some other interest?"

"If I were to explain the fire, it would be considered a contract." Layren thought about it for a while, then nodded and said, "I provided land and a suitable living environment. In return and my responsibilities to the territory, the dwarves provided me with it. Produce weapons and armor, swear to join me in battle, whether it is the Stonehelm clan, the Sons of Gnar, or the Bronzebeard clan, they must abide by their oath to the ancestral god."

"Since the dwarves are your subjects, can I find their blacksmiths to customize a batch of new muskets?" Eureka's beautiful crimson eyes faintly glittered: "The craftsmanship of dwarves is far better than that of human blacksmiths. A lot of them, the dwarf burst fire guns I use now, I bought them at a high price by chance."

   "If you have deep pockets, of course you can. The weapons that the wood elves buy from the dwarf blacksmiths are not cheap. You get what you pay for." Laylen replied simply.

   "Hmmmm." That's what Eureka needs. She plans to replace a batch of dwarf bursts for her subordinates, if the price is right.

  Lyren stopped talking when he saw this.

From far to near, the changes in Oak Town are staggering. The city wall of the town has completely turned into a tall stone wall, and it has continued to expand. There is even a trend of being divided into inner and outer urban areas. The house has become a two- or three-story residential house, especially on both sides of the trade market and the straight road leading to the lord's long house. The most prosperous areas have opened a variety of artisan and merchant shops, and the streets are crowded with dense crowds. , the carriages entered and exited from the six-meter-high gatehouse.

The towns were also built in an orderly manner according to Lailun’s preset plan, and new business districts were specially divided. There, rows of new shops were opening, and the increase in population meant more demand. The Barons of Draco open workshops, trading posts, and invest in their future business.

The presence of Lallen caused a loud cheer from the town. People crowded on both sides of the straight, chanting the names of Lallen-Wald and Draco. Lallen smiled and waved to his people. , .

   There have been many figures of wood elves and dwarves on the streets, and the baronies are also hugely attractive to races other than humans.

The    town patrol accompanied Lallen, they disperse the crowd of onlookers, people's excessive enthusiasm for the baron will lead to bad things.

The baron's current residence is more aptly called the castle. The stone wall surrounds the entire hillside. From the town straight all the way up, the baron's castle is at the highest point of Oak Town, with courtyards, stables, castle guard houses, and a mage tower. , everything is available.

Laylen and Eureka walked up the flat stone road. The baron's affairs officer, Pittman, had been waiting for a long time. He wore a certain kite hat and bowed deeply: "My baron, you are finally back! And This young witch hunter, as a friend of the Baron, welcomes you."

"This is the second time I've come to the Baron of Draco." Eureka reminded her, she didn't dismount and said to Lallen: "I want to see the place you provided us first, Arrange for my subordinates so that at least they don't have to sleep in the farmer's granary tonight."

"Okay." Laylen nodded with a smile, and he handed the reins to the guard's hand: "Pitman, you arrange, there is one more thing, I need to know that during my absence, Baron general change in collar.”

   "Understood, Lord Baron, I will prepare immediately."

   Soon, Eureka, led by a clerk, headed to the south of Oak Town, while Laren had a lunch, changed into aristocratic casual clothes, and sat in the long-lost office.

As the backbone of the baronial lordship, Lallen's return made everyone in the castle feel very happy. An excellent and competent lord has an impact on the territory in all aspects, especially the baron's army has always been committed to clearing the land. Defend the threats around the baronies.

Those hunters who hunted on the edge of the Drakovald Forest and the charcoal burners who went to chop wood can always work with confidence without worrying about their own safety. When they encounter danger, they can always get some black clothes. With the assistance of the armored knights, these heavy armored knights wield their long swords and can defeat the beastmen and lawless robbers several times their size in a single charge.

The local people know that the black heavy armored knights are the eternal knights under the baron. They are powerful and do not ask for compensation from those who are helped. Therefore, every eternal knight is highly respected by the baron's lords, and Della. Among the Baronies and surrounding towns, the Eternal Knights became even more famous, attracting dozens of imperial knights eager to join the Knights.

   Pittman organized the papers in chronological order in the office, and told the young baron's changes over time.

  Draco Baron's recent population has swelled to more than 9,000 people, which is within easy reach of the target's 10,000 people.

"In one month, there have been nearly 3,000 people. Where do these people come from?" Lailun sat behind his desk and thought about this question carefully. In the office on the fourth floor of the lord's castle, the bright sun at noon illuminated the whole room.

"Most of them are people from Westland." The officer replied: "The borough of Marienburg in Westland has been in constant conflict with the Bretons, and there has been a serious insult recently. This led to the Duke Bohemond of Bastogne's unilateral declaration of war on the municipality of Marienburg. Due to years of friction and many tragedies indirectly caused by the merchants of Marienburg to the Knights Kingdom, the insults involved were The Duke of Bohemond, who is the Knight of the Holy Grail, was so angry that the Bretons were very angry. About three duchies declared war on Marienburg together. Their noble knight, Lawen-Leo Cornwall, took the opportunity to launch a new A round of chivalry, thousands of Breton knights gathered."

"The knights of the Bretons are very strong. Along the fortresses of the Grey Mountains, one after another pushed the defense line of the Marienburg mercenaries. It is difficult for many West leaders to be sure whether they will be affected by Chiyu. Escape here."

   "So the baronies took the opportunity to take in a lot of high-quality population."

   "Oh, so, but why did the merchants in Marienburg insult Duke Bohemond?" Lallen asked curiously.

  Businessmen have always been weak and inferior. They prefer to be safe and secure, and to make money with peace of mind, so as not to be confused about the status gap between themselves and a Holy Grail Knight Duke.

   "I don't know the inside story, but what is certain is that the Duchess of Bohemond was publicly teased by a daring guy and called her a 'living widow'." Pittman shrugged.

The Duke of Bohemond is a Holy Grail Knight, his ancestor Gilles the Unifier, the heroic knight who saved the kingdom of knights from water and fire, inherited the blood of the founding king, Bohemond is famous for fighting beasts, Therefore he is also known as "Beast Destroyer".

He is also known for refusing to fight trash opponents, even when attacked by those trash opponents, the Duke will only choose to stun them so that he can focus on other enemies, but the Holy Grail Knight is too focused on In the fight, even the affairs of his own duchy are fully entrusted to his stewards and courtiers to solve. In other words, if Bohemond has only ten days at his disposal, of which nine and a half days, he stays on the battlefield , the remaining half of the day, the Duke will have a banquet with his knights, eat and drink.

  The Duchess of Bohemond is even more famous….

   "A war that has nothing to do with us, don't care, settle these populations and populate each village." Laylen made a decision.

The municipality of Marienburg is special. Although it belongs to the Empire in name, it does have the right to self-government. Emperor Karl Franz has always wanted to suppress those daring and stingy vampires. Now King Raun of the Knight Kingdom is willing to fight. , might not be a good thing.

   As for the next step, it depends on whether our Imperial Emperor has taken any action. Anyway, Lailun does not intend to get involved in this muddy water.

  Development is the last word. Now we can't handle so many chores for the time being. After all, the replenishment of the population is a good thing that will outweigh the disadvantages.

"My baron, they have been arranged in various villages, and about 30% of the Nord people are taken in from the Midden Land. The Electoral Council judged that several large cities could not accommodate too many exiles, so they asked the baronies. Contain part of it." The clerk continued: "There are many experienced veterans among them, Sir Francis and Sir Gavin have asked you if you want to add another halberd company."

   "How much is the surplus in our warehouse compared to last quarter?" Lallen first asked the gold coin question.

   "A surplus of sixteen hundred gold coins, my baron."

"Well, then set aside an amount and let Gavin be responsible for expanding two new halberd companies, and the remaining gold coins will allow the Overland Chamber of Commerce to import more muskets and ammunition to the gun factory in Nunn City." Laylen nodded, the time for the planned expedition was getting closer and closer, and he had to be fully prepared.

"I got it."

   "Is there anything going on around the baronies? Beastmen, forest goblins, or some fallen heretic believers."

"No, Lord Baron." Pittman smiled and shook his head, "Sir Francis and Sir Gavin take their troops to sweep the surrounding forest every day, and even the dung of the Beastmen has decreased a lot, Heck. Ser Tor and the Eternal Knights are cruising every road in the domain again, so the baroniality is very stable."

   "What about wood elves and dwarves? Have they changed?"

"The wood elves have sent a team of woodland guards to the trading post in the north, and similarly, the troops they have sent are stationed on the land you have designated for them." Say, my baron, the elves haven't changed much, but at the end of the autumn harvest, they bought a lot of grain, ore, and wood, and left a large amount of gold coins, so that we can prepare more goods they need."

   Having said that, the affairs officer took out a straight dark green straw paper, and made a list in human words on it: "The specifics are here, please take a look."

  “….barley, wheat, chickpeas…500 Malt”

  “….Fruits, vegetables, beans…600 Malt….”

   "200 magic ore, 4 amber stones? 1 ton of fluorite? 16 tons of copper concentrate... What are these?..."

   “Wood….190 squares…”

   "Okay." Lailen scanned it carefully and put down the dark green grass paper in his hand: "It seems that the goods the elves want are very scarce, are they ready?"

   "The Overland Chamber of Commerce is under preparation, and most of the goods are currently ready." Pittman reported a number: "Baron, this batch of goods can bring us more than 3,000 gold coins in income."

   "Well, it's good to have Lilan." Lallen continued, "What about the dwarves? I think the way they greeted me today is very special. The rotorcraft has been built."

"Yes, Baron, before you came back, the Karg engineer had already flown that rotorcraft four or five times." The clerk looked calm, as if accustomed to the new inventions of the dwarves: "The dwarven community is being built. Brewery, a tarmac, and a maintenance workshop, Karger engineers plan to build your own gyro squad."

"The workshop of the rune blacksmith Langone-Stonehelm can produce more than 200 sets of finely crafted armor every month. The business of these iron products is very hot, and the orders from the wood elves and the Earl of Draven are not enough. Now, there are some orders from the nearby noble lords, the raw materials for the workshop, and the territory can be self-sufficient. So far, seven new dwarves have come to settle here." Pittman replied eloquently.

   "Very good." Laren stopped asking.

   In the next two days, Baron Draco dealt with the internal affairs of the out-of-time, and on the third day of his return to the barony, he went to the dwarf community.
