Fantasy Lords: Starting with the Pioneer Knight Chapter 30

Chapter 30: Mobilizing serfs and the first pioneering war begins

The serfs were purchased at a cost of 540 gold coins. Thor then purchased a large amount of daily necessities, especially grain.

After all, if three thousand people are added at this moment, his population will also increase from close to one thousand to nearly four thousand, and the consumption will naturally be different.

In fact, food consumption is the biggest problem.

0.4 to 0.5 pounds of food per day for one person, 1,200 pounds for 3,000 people per day, and 36,000 pounds per month.

The price of food has more than tripled in the entire Northland province.

Originally, the price of one pound of buckwheat in Frost Moon Province was only about three copper coins, but the price of one pound of grain in Frost Moon Province was more than ten copper coins. Sometimes the price of grain could even soar to twelve copper coins. On top of a copper coin.

This is just buckwheat.

Wheat is more expensive.

The price of wheat in the Frost Moon Province is likely to be ten copper coins per pound, while in the Northland Province it is fifty copper coins.

The daily consumption of three thousand people, even if it is just buckwheat, is at least 36,000 copper coins a month, which is on top of 3,600 silver coins, the monthly expenditure is 36 gold coins. And if it is wheat, It has reached more than 180 gold coins, which is only a month's consumption.

In one year, that is the cost of more than a thousand gold coins.

To be honest, even an ordinary viscount family may not be able to support it.

Even for the pioneering children of the Earl family, it is difficult to arrive in a short time.

After all, not any family is like Count Engel Dressrosa, who waved his hand and gave support of hundreds of thousands of gold coins.

That is also a huge financial expenditure for an earl family.

In this case.

Most pioneering lords are unable to sustain themselves and meet the kingdom's assessment standards. This is also the problem.

But for Thor, it is still enough to support him for the time being.

His father, Count Engel Dressrosa, directly gave him tens of thousands of gold coins.

Leave it alone for one year, even two years is obviously enough.

And there are iron ores.

The next economic problem will not be a big problem.

Then there is no need to consider it.

evening.

Wren returned with dozens of knights.

Menghuoyou was brought back.

At the same time, three thousand strong slaves from the Habsburg Chamber of Commerce were also transported.

on the second day.

The group of people set out again in great force.

Return towards Eagle Ridge.

This time, compared to the first time we went to Xiongying Ridge, the scale was undoubtedly larger.

Along the way, we didn't even encounter any magical beasts.

Since the harvest had already been done before, the daily information did not give any new harvest on the way back this time.

The group successfully returned to Eagle Ridge ten days later.

The arrival of more than 3,000 people instantly made the entire Eagle Territory lively.

Especially for the original 500 people, they suddenly became nervous. Originally there were only 500 people competing, but suddenly it became 3,500 people. The number of people increased seven times. How could they not make them nervous?

Thor didn't care about their competition.

After returning to the camp, he quickly summoned Steve.

When Steve shows up.

His expression was filled with joy.

At this moment, Steve's life force fluctuated significantly more violently.

This undoubtedly means that the other party has taken that crucial step.

“Steve, have you had a breakthrough?”

Thor spoke with a smile.

“Yes, sir!”

Steve said with gratitude and excitement.

The Great Knight, he thought it would take him at least a few more years, or even ten years if he was unlucky, but he never thought that after following Thor, in less than a few months, he would It has broken through to the Great Knight.

　　It almost made him feel like he was in a dream.

"Not bad, not bad!" "It seems you have not disappointed me. Let's stabilize it in the past few days. After three days, we will start taking action."

“By the way, remember to send someone to learn more about that Goblin tribe. I need more accurate information.”

Thor nodded, and then spoke with a solemn tone.

"yes!"

Steve nodded quickly.

The figure quickly retreated.

Once it was confirmed that Steve had broken through, the last trace of worry in Thor's heart disappeared.

All that's left is preparation and action.

Time passes quickly.

Three days flew by in the blink of an eye.

In the past three days, Steve has completely consolidated his status as a great knight, and at the same time, he also has a relatively clear understanding of the large timid goblin tribe.

The number of large goblins in this place is likely to be between 5,000 and 6,000.

The number is not small, but it is also a little less than expected. It does not reach such a terrifying value as seven or eight thousand.

At the same time, the surrounding terrain was also thoroughly touched.

In the room.

Steve and Ren both gathered in the room.

“Get ready for action!”

“All weapons are ready!”

Thor spoke and looked at Steve.

“Sir, we are ready!”

Steve nodded respectfully.

"OK!"

“Then let's go!”

Thor nodded, feeling a little excited at the moment.

This will be his first battle in developing the territory. If he can successfully capture that iron mine, the development of the entire territory will also enter a high-speed stage, and the significance will be extremely huge.

"yes!"

Steve was equally excited as Ren, and the two figures immediately responded.

As the two of them approached.

In the entire Xiongying Ridge, more than 3,000 serfs were also gathered together.

Within three days, the news about Eagle Ridge had spread, and even the three thousand newly arrived serfs couldn't help but feel excited.

They actually have the opportunity to escape from serfdom. Even if this opportunity is extremely small, they do have it. How can they not dream about it.

During these three days, these serfs worked with unprecedented seriousness.

When the lord calls for it.

No one dares to be negligent.

A group of figures gathered together.

Everyone is filled with longing, curiosity, and nervousness.

Because just over a month ago, when the lords summoned them, some of them were liberated as free people, and it might be the same this time. How can they not let them look forward to it.

Even though there is still one month left before the promise, everyone can't help but have a fantasy at this moment.

While in expectation and fantasy, their lord, the master of Eagle Ridge, came from a distance.

"grown ups!"

"Owner!"

One voice after another responded, and knights and serfs all saluted respectfully.

Everyone looked at Thor with eyes full of hope and expectation.

As everyone's eyes gathered, Thor's figure also came to the high platform.
