As for what kind of dazzling second spring those herbs could burst out in the hands of an alchemist, Klose was not worried. Because relying on Jessica's half-baked alchemy, he can make the corresponding potions, and Ian, an intermediate alchemist who combines practice and theory, will definitely bring him a lot of surprises.

Maybe he will become a big producer of magic potions here in the future. Then these potions will become a pillar industry that supports the economic resources of the Magic Eagle Castle! At that point, Klose will have to consider expanding the scope of Chinese medicine cultivation.

However, at this stage, his priority is still to solve the food problem. Although the previous food reserves were abundant, coupled with the cooked raw food and semi-finished products in his supermarket, it was not a problem to support hundreds of people for a year and a half. But now that the number of people in the territory of the Demon Eagle Castle is increasing rapidly, he must also take precautions, and he can't wait until there is no food to eat.

After arranging Ian, this guy couldn't wait to devote himself to the research and alchemy of traditional Chinese medicine.

Klose shook his head helplessly, deciding not to disturb the classmate, but instead went to the town hall next door to the castle.

The city hall is now very large in size and traffic!

Dwarves, goblins, and ink wolf people can all be seen here. Of course, there are also some stout silverback gorillas.

Klose didn't know what to call them, so he had to call them that for now.

Walking into the city hall, you can hear everyone's greetings from time to time. Klose feels like the chairman of a group company inspecting his company, and it feels like a stinky fart~

Soon, he arrived at Hupolu's office. When he opened the door, he was shocked by the scene in front of him again.

Hupolu's office is very cluttered! The desk, the size of a bed, was littered with papers and scrolls.

The diminutive dwarf was almost buried in the papers. There was an oil lamp lit beside him, and Klose was worried about whether the paper and parchment scrolls would be set on fire.

Huporu, who was lying there scribbling, had no idea that Klose had come in. Klose quietly closed the door and sat down in the chair across from him.

Huberu remained in this state for a full fifteen minutes before he put down his pen and exhaled.

When he looked up, he was scared and trembled.

"Ouch! My aunt's neighbor's niece! My lord, when did you come in? It's a smack! ”

Klose shrugged innocently: "I didn't want to scare you, you were too immersed in it, and you ignored my existence at all~ But this state of work, um~ very."

ice~！ ”

"What? What shredded milk? ”

Hu Boru's face was full of question marks, and Klose waved his hand: "Those are not important, I came to you...."

Before Klose could finish speaking, Hu Bolu stretched out his hand and said, "Stop! My lord, don't you tell me there are new projects and jobs? I have enough unfinished projects on hand until this time next year! Can you give me time to catch my breath? ”

Klose scratched his head a little embarrassed: "I.... Just wanted to ask where those silverback gorillas out there came from? ”

Hu Bolu exhaled with relief: "Whew~ You mean them?" Those are the demonic beasts in the depths of the Demon Forest, called the Ghost-Faced Demon Ape Clan. Due to the frequent shortage of productivity in our territory, after discussion, we decided to subdue those monsters with higher IQs in the Demon Forest and become our partners. Of course, if you get along, you can also absorb them and become your subjects. And the best IQ in this monster is this ghost-faced demon ape and a jungle wolf. After some in-depth communication between General Jason and them, they all decided to submit to the Eagle Castle. ”

"Well...."

Klose heard some sense of picture from the words "in simple terms". It seems that the leaders of these two groups have been beaten by Jason.

"So... We've been able to solve our understaffing situation, right? Klose asked.

Hu Bolu stood up, stretched his back, and then said, "Yes, it's solved for the time being." According to my preliminary count, the Ghost-faced Demon Ape and the Timberwolves have brought us nearly 3,000 laborers! And these monsters alone can handle the workload of three or four humans, or even more! In addition, some of the residents of the so-called Bankaz have moved here from the north, and about five or six hundred people have come here before and after, right? ”

Klose nodded, and Huporu continued, "I have temporarily placed them alone in a clearing to the north, built them a temporary shelter and provided work.

These people are generally malnourished, and their work is far from that of our original people. So I asked them to do something less physically handmade. For example, making clothes, or making some daily necessities, weaving baskets, and so on.

Don't say it, the level of weaving of these refugees from Bankaz is top-notch! It is worthy of being the birthplace of Bankaz blankets~!

To sum up, if you add the Demon Beasts to your territory now, the number of people in your territory has reached more than 8,000! It is estimated that it will not take long to break through the 10,000 mark~~"

"That's good!" Klose nodded: "I also hope that through their word of mouth, more refugees from Bankaz can come here." ”

Hu Bolu said: "You don't have to worry about this, I have already told them to do this." It is believed that the refugees there will continue to go to our territory when they get the news. The Borderlands now have nothing to stand in our way, and it takes a lot of people to develop it. In addition, Lord Olivia has also brought some farmers from the south, most of them have experience in farming, and I think we can carve out a pasture south of the Eagle Castle to raise some cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, etc. ”

Klose clapped his hands: "Great! I've been wanting to get a ranch for a long time! I have cattle, chickens, and ducks here~"

He pointed to the green rattan ring on his finger and said, "Build a chicken farm!" In this way, we have a stable supply of eggs. Also, my lord, where is your sister? ”

Klose asked his question: "Isn't she my Chancellor of the Exchequer?" Why not in City Hall? And I didn't see her in the castle in the morning. ”

"Hehe~~ You don't have to worry about this." Hu Bolu smiled: "Sister, she went to the west of the territory with a group of people early in the morning, of course you were still sleeping at that time, and we didn't wake you up." ”

Klose's old face turned red and coughed twice in embarrassment: "Ahem.... What did she go to West for what? ”

Hu Boru pulled out a picture from a pile of miscellaneous items at hand and pointed it out to Klose: "You see, she is going to build a fortress to the west, saying that it is to prevent the war from spreading to your territory." ”

Klose looked at the hand-drawn topographic map suspiciously, and suddenly felt that the map he drew was like a schoolboy's level! Compared with this person, it is simply a heaven and an earth, properly crushed!

"How did she know there was going to be a fight? Is it because my big brother harassed our territory? ”

Hu Bolu shook his head: "No, it's more than that. According to my eldest sister's speculation, the territory of your eldest prince brother is probably already in chaos. The adventurers and refugees brought news of the war, and although it was not very clear, there was no doubt that there was already a fight there, and it was a full-scale war. ”

"What? Fighting? ”

Klose frowned and looked at the map.

"You say that.... It seems that it is still really necessary to build a fortress here .... It seems that your sister is not only a financial genius, but also a military one. ”

Hu Bolu pursed his lips: "Didn't I say it earlier?" She's a true genius! ”

"Okay, I believe it."

After Klose finished speaking, Huboru put away the picture again.

But then the little lord was just seen by Hu Bolu on the document he was interested in.

"Huh? What is this you just wrote? ”

Hu Bolu replied: "Oh~ It is a supply contract signed with the Western Chamber of Commerce, and I am working on some of the terms in it. ”

Klose asked curiously, "What?" Isn't our plenipotentiary agent the Capybara Chamber of Commerce? ”

"Hey, my lord~~ Don't be naïve! Are you really going to hand over all your goods to the Capybara Chamber of Commerce Old Zabini? He couldn't eat that much alone. Besides, his business was mainly in the north, and almost all the business in the west was controlled by the Duke of Hain in Port Rousseau, and if we wanted to expand our influence and sell our goods for a higher price, we had to pass his pass. ”

"Port Rousseau...."

Klose repeated the name, and suddenly remembered where he had heard it.

That's right! I still have a property in that port! It was spoofed from the hands of the respected Presiding Judge Fang Deng~!

"What goods do they need?" Klose asked casually.

"Hmm...."Hu Bolu glanced at the information at hand and said, "Most of them are some so-called adult products in your mouth." Maybe it's because the aristocrats there are very good at enjoying it? Then there's the 'Crossbow' as well as their favorite, as well as those sparkling ornaments, soft toilet paper, metal nail clippers, ear pickers, massage chairs, batteries, and this tea! Those people like this drink very much, which has a smell of leaves and grass~~ I heard that it has become a new favorite in the aristocratic circle. ”

Klose nodded: "These people are quite good at picking~ It's just that there are 'Kloe crossbows' in so many goods.... I always feel a little abrupt. ”
