Empires Start with Lords - Chapter 40
Two days later, Ross came to Green Forest and started planning the construction of the trade area.
Due to the arrival of the orc hunters, there are more than 300 orc hunters living in the Green Forest, so the market has gradually become rich in addition to some farmers and the daily needs of more than 10,000 residents.
For example, animal skins, orc hunters can directly sell them to merchants, and then make them into clothes.
Because the animal skin’s resistance is very strong, it can even cover up its own odor in the wild, some wealthy petty bourgeoisie families also bought one with two or three months’ salary.
Ross came to the market shop and watched the people in black busy packing, and those making animal skin clothes were busy stepping on the sewing machine.
“The business is good, why are there only a few of you?”
Ross remembered that he rented them two sets of large shops, both of which were over 100 square meters.
But now there are only 20 or 30 people in the store who are busy with the explosive business, and they are all stretched thin.
“Hello, Lord.”
The two black-clothed little sisters glanced at Ross quietly and passed by with a smile.
“Hey, Lord Lord, the business here is really good. Our boss is worried that these hides won’t sell for much money, so he went hunting in the depths of the Green Forest again.”
Ross nodded.
These guys are very good at dealing with goblin goblins. With them here, Ross no longer has to worry about the goblin goblins in the Green Forest appearing again.
It is equivalent to setting up an extra guarantee for one’s own territory.
Ross admired the decision he made more and more.
Now, relying on this group of beast hunters alone, they have boosted their market economy, and gradually many businessmen have poured into Ross’s territory.
In the beginning, it was only when the convoy passed by that they found that the traffic here is very convenient, so they spent money to rent a lot of storefronts in Ross’s territory, wanting to stop by when they pass by here on their way to the deep mountains in the west.
However, the size of the market economy in Rus has now far exceeded that of a month ago, especially the trade between the three cities.
Seeing this, Ross also specially purchased 300 carriages to pull goods.
For the three cities, I saw daily trade transfers, and it would be too slow to use manpower every time.
Gradually, these three cities have more than 40,000 people, and trade far exceeds the population.
The high-level economic scale that only a population of 80,000 can have is something Ross did not expect.
The main reason is that the location of Green Forest is really good, dozens of kilometers around are deserts and mountains, so it is impossible to build a city, only here is equivalent to a huge oasis.
It was also developed by Rus as an open city for trade.
In almost a few days, more and more caravans came here to do business, so Ross spent tens of thousands of gold coins to separate a small area dedicated to local transactions.
There are about 200 hectares, and more than 20 large markets have been built. Some of them are specialized in selling animal skins, and there are also exchange rate markets such as jewelry and gold.
But to say that the most profitable one has to be agriculture, which accounts for 30% of the tax revenue.
Rose’s vein fruit can be said to be large and full, and each one can be sold for the price of a silver coin.
Residents here receive five wagons of Vein Fruit every day from the Eye of Hope.
Because Rose’s veined fruit is not only bright in color and delicious, but also has a lot of water, and the production cycle only takes three days.
In addition to people’s daily needs, more than 6,000 fruits can be sold here every day.
A day is a tax of two thousand silver coins.
Not only that, but also wheat, other vegetables and fruits…
Ross’s agriculture has spread to other small towns and water-deficient farmhouses in the surrounding 100 kilometers.
All were sold by the caravans in the outer city, and they made a huge profit.
There is no other reason. Rose’s vein fruit is the most delicious in the Kingdom of Aklan.
In fact, it is a pity that some Ye Vein fruits have not been opened in the imperial capital after seeing such a delicious fruit.
Gradually, some leaf vein fruits also flowed into the royal family a thousand kilometers away…
The king ate it, and I heard that he was cured of the brain disease that he had been suffering from, and his subordinates were looking for the source of this leaf vein fruit.
However, Ross still didn’t know that he was inadvertently interfering with the willow willows, and was thinking about how to enter the palace to report the eldest prince, when the palace’s men asked around about the whereabouts.
In addition to planning his own territory these days, Ross planned a few wrestling matches to attract outsiders to watch.
It is more about farming by yourself.
Ross found himself enjoying the joy of farming.
So he ordered all the slaves who had been arrested some time ago to farm and distribute them to the abandoned land.
In three years, the seeds must be harvested twenty times.
Various crops of Ross can be catalyzed. After Ross spent 600 gold coins to upgrade the catalysis, the harvest cycle of a new batch of seeds was shortened by one third.
In this way, the goal of harvesting twenty times in three years is getting closer and closer.
Now once every two months, eleven times in three years.
It has been nearly three months faster than most crops in the kingdom!
In other words, Ross’s territory has become a super agricultural territory with agricultural export strength.
But ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Ross is not reconciled.
At least 20 harvests in three years.
I don’t know why, Ross is very troubled by this.
How can I still need to import other people’s grain in my dignified agricultural city? !
In order not to import at that time, Ross began to make new types of seeds for research.
In the end, it was found that the seeds on the black soil can be excavated, and then a catalyst can be sown to achieve a super crop once a month.
But the black land is really limited.
Ross glanced at the surrounding map and found several places with excellent weather and location. There is a high probability of hidden black land, and the amount of black land may be more than ten times that of the Eye of Hope!
Ross immediately arranged for a team to search for the black land.
There were about 80 people. Ross didn’t want to attract attention, so he only sent three knight commanders, each leading fifty probes and thirty guardian knights.
Exploring from three different directions from east, west and west.
……
After doing all this, there was a knock on the door of Ross.
“Enter.”
Ross was looking for other locations on the map that might exist in the Black Land, and saw a butler in uniform who appeared to be familiar.
“Butler Xu?”
Of course Rose recognized the man in front of him and was a little surprised to see him.
“Second prince, you have suffered…”
The butler bowed slightly.
Ross didn’t want to pay attention to him. After all, he was the one who followed the first prince’s order and drove him out of the palace.
“I’m here this time to buy a lot of vein fruit from your territory.”
Ross thought, it would be good to be able to blackmail the royal family!
