Territorial Ruler: The Plants I Planted Are Alive! - Chapter 18
Today’s dinner was still the gray wolf kebabs.
But there was an additional piece of crocodile meat.
As for the green-skinned lizard’s meat?
Jiang Chen indicated that he couldn’t eat it just by looking at it.
He could only drag it away as a recruitment resource.
As a Lord, Jiang Chen naturally ate the most sumptuous food.
The most delicious parts of every Beast’s body entered his mouth.
He realized that his appetite was getting bigger and bigger.
The second richest was Lucy.
Lucy was not only a mage with a noble status, her strength had also completely subdued Parker, iron egg, and the others.
The Bonfire was flourishing.
..
The farmland was one of the living buildings that could only be unlocked after the territory was upgraded. It was much more difficult to build than the barracks.
The spearmen turned into builders and took a full hour to draw in the water from the river.
Jiang Chen once again arrived at the Northeast region.
The subjects held torches in their hands and lit up their surroundings.
He raised his head to look.
This was a huge garden.
The fields were shimmering with water.
Jiang Chen opened the recruitment column.
[ Lord’s Small Building/Watchtower ]
“We’re recruiting five civilians.”
A screen of light fell in front of Jiang Chen.
Five muscular figures appeared.
He swept his gaze over their numbers.
He compared them and estimated.
Their attributes were much stronger than the civilians they’d recruited before, and they also had more potential.
But they were weaker than the spearmen.
Jiang Chen returned to his territory with the new subjects.
“We’ve added quite a few new people today. The subjects are willing to build a few more.”
“Mm, the level one houses are too shabby. If we can gather enough resources, we’ll try our best to upgrade them all to level two.”
A residence with a good environment could increase the subjects’loyalty and sense of belonging.
Of course, the subjects under Jiang Chen’s command were all very loyal.
He wasn’t worried about this aspect.
But a shabby residence could result in insufficient rest and recovery.
It would affect the stamina of the next day.
Construction, it had to be built!
There were currently six grade one residences, and Jiang Chen had upgraded all of them to grade two.
The resources he spent were to make up for the difference in price between grade one and grade two residences.
The construction team continued with their construction.
Bam Bam Bam —
The construction this time was much faster than before.
One grade two residence was quickly upgraded.
The exterior was directly upgraded to a wooden house.
There were also three wooden beds inside.
Although it was far from being comparable to a lord’s small house, it was still countless times stronger than the shabby house from before.
After all the upgrades, the territory’s basic resources were almost completely used up.
Jiang Chen’s hanging market was also gradually reaching a bottleneck.
There were only a few lords who had the money to buy, or were willing to buy.
If he continued to hang it up for sale, he would naturally be able to sell it.
However, the speed at which they were being sold slowed down.
“It’s still the other lords who are too poor.”
After thinking for a while, Jiang Chen decided to sell his equipment.
He opened up the list of equipment blueprints.
The equipment blueprints he currently had were:
Fine Spear (green) , ordinary saber (white) , ordinary arrow (white) , and ordinary leather armor (white) .
He wasn’t planning on selling fine equipment.
He wasn’t sure if the relationship between the Lords.
Was it a competition or if they were on the same side.
Normal equipment wouldn’t be a problem.
“Selling this kind of equipment won’t threaten me.”
“And other lords with weapons and equipment can hunt wild beasts and gather more resources…”
“I can only sell more things in the market.”
A perfect strategy!
Of course, before selling equipment.
First, he had to forge five long white spears for the five spearmen.
“I’ll leave this mission to you, Iron Egg.”
Jiang Chen gave iron egg the craftsman skill book that he’d prepared earlier, allowing him to comprehend and level up.
“Yes, I will not let you down, my Lord!”
Iron Egg felt as if he’d been enlightened after learning the skill book, and the muscles of his entire body had become much more refined.
He raised the black tool hammer, his bare body covered in muscle stripes.
He started forging with a clang.
At this moment, the voice of the Lordship’s system appeared.
[ territory upgrade complete, Lordship’s strength upgraded! ]
Pitter-patter —
Before he had time to react, Jiang Chen’s tendons and bones suddenly rang out in unison, and power began to grow within his body.
Both his strength and speed had doubled.
At the same time, Jiang Chen felt that he could control the slightest bit of change in his territory at any time.
Jiang Chen opened his eyes and smiled.
“I’ve become stronger.”
He walked out of the manor and fumbled about.
When he arrived outside.
The Iron Hammer had already forged five fine-grade spears.
Jiang Chen immediately had Zhang Fei and the other spearmen change to new weapons.
Jiang Chen was prepared to sell the five ordinary spears he’d exchanged at the exchange market.
It was precisely today that many people’s territories had been attacked by wild beasts.
Weapons and equipment were selling exceptionally well.
They were almost sold the moment they were hung up.
The five spears Jiang Chen had put up for sale were sold out in less than a minute.
Spear-type weapons were suitable for a siege.
A few soldiers holding spears could surround and kill some troublesome wild beasts without injury.
Someone asked in the chat channel.
“Boss Jiang, do you still sell weapons?”
“Weapon, I didn’t get it if I was too slow.”
“Boss Jiang, for the sake of the same area, let us know when you’re going to sell weapons and equipment.”
“Yeah, yeah, good things come to good people, Boss.”
Jiang Chen indicated that there was no problem.
He was selling who he was selling.
Of course, it was impossible to lower the price.
He waited for the blacksmith’s hammer to forge another batch of equipment.
Jiang Chen then made an announcement in the regional channel.
After that, he hung up on this batch of equipment.
Twenty wooden shields.
Twelve ordinary sabers.
“Eh, that’s not right. Big Brother, this price of yours… ?”
“The ordinary long spears were still on the market just now. Why has the price suddenly risen? It’s gone up by 50% !”
“Even if the weapons are selling like hotcakes right now, we can’t just sit here and raise the price like this!”
..
“Wait a minute, look at the stats of the equipment that the big boss is selling.”
“How can there be any stats for unranked equipment… wait a minute, the sharpness of a battle Blade + 1? !”
“Even wooden shields have a defense + 1. What’s going on? Don’t only fine equipment have stats?”
“Holy shit, they’re all sold out! A bunch of people don’t have any morals!”
Jiang Chen smiled without saying a word.
This was of course all thanks to Iron Egg.
After upgrading to an intermediate craftsman, the equipment and weapons made by iron egg, even if they were at the normal level, would also have an additional attribute value.
If they were put on the market, they’d be snatched up in an instant.
A batch of equipment had been sold.
The territory’s stock of wood, stones, and other basic resources had finally been enriched.
Including Jiang Chen’s gold coin balance, he had also harvested 500 pieces.
“I can continue buying fertilizer again! I’ll try my best to plant the exploding potatoes as soon as possible!”
Jiang Chen had a faint feeling that a storm was coming. The stronger he was, the more he could experience the terror of this world.
The various lords were developing very quickly now. Did this mean that the dangers they faced would become greater and greater once the novice protection period was over!
He also took a look at the chat channel.
This wasn’t a chat group.
How could gathering information be called a chat group..
