Feynapotter Kingdom, Jeffery Territory.
After finishing lunch, Hobert went to the "Nation of Disorder", first completing the transaction with Elliot, and then trading for a large amount of gold.
Then, he gave the Beyonder characteristics of the already aggregated "Baron of Corruption" and "Mentor of Disorder" to Rafter in the form of bestowal, and asked him not to leave Backlund for the time being, and be ready to be summoned at any time.
The original scheduled time for the transaction and bestowal was in the morning, but Hobert slept too soundly in the morning, making Rafter and the others wait for a long time.
This is actually nothing, after all, he is a god, it is impossible to go to work on time.
After finishing all this, Hobert called Fors again to the main hall of the Lord's Mansion.
The servants and guards of the Lord's Mansion had already noticed that when Hobert and Fors appeared in the main hall again, it meant that the Lord was going to deal with official business again.
Hobert called Philip, Conrad, and Seel: "Everyone performed very well yesterday. This week, you will receive three times your salary, and those who participated in guiding and maintaining order yesterday will receive double their salary."
The three thanked the Lord for the reward. Except for Philip who was more calm, the other two were very happy.
Hobert said to Conrad: "From your subordinates, transfer three patient and eloquent subordinates to Philip."
He said to Philip again: "Yesterday I noticed that there are not many poultry and livestock in the town residents' homes. The town residents are still like this, the villagers must have even less, but the Lord's Mansion has too many poultry and livestock."
Philip said: "This is because in the previous six years, all the livestock and poultry in the entire territory were used to offset taxes and were taken away by bandits. In addition, a large number of poultry and livestock are eaten every time monsters attack the town."
Hobert smiled: "No matter what the reason, the fact is so.
"So I plan to establish a 'Poultry and Livestock Management Office'. This department will use Conrad's three subordinates as the main members and will be temporarily managed by Philip.
"The department has three responsibilities: First, provide the people in the territory with experience and methods for raising poultry and livestock for free.
"You can find a few serfs who understand this technology and let them work in this department. The manpower provided by Conrad is only responsible for clerical work.
"Second, if the people in the territory have the intention to raise poultry and livestock, they can come to the Lord's Mansion to receive one male and one female or one male and one female, and no fees will be charged within three years, but the serfs must compensate for poultry and livestock that die accidentally during this period.
"A certain 'interest' will be charged every year after three years, such as two chicks, or one-half of a lamb. The specific interest to be charged will be finalized after the people who understand breeding are in place.
"The third responsibility is to sell poultry and livestock, or the cubs of poultry and livestock. The price must be fair, and there must be no forced buying or selling!"
Philip and Conrad were both surprised by the Lord's idea. Although they didn't know how he came up with such a good method, they could foresee that after the establishment of this management office, many people would come to receive poultry and livestock.
At most three years, no, a large number of poultry and livestock cubs will be born next year, and the number of poultry and livestock in the territory will definitely increase several times or even more than ten times at the latest the year after next!
Because the Lord's ideas were too novel for them, Philip now habitually takes a notebook and takes notes while listening.
When they understood their tasks, Hobert asked them to prepare quickly. It would be best to build this management office in the next few days, clarify the rules and regulations, and start operating normally next week.
Hobert asked Philip again: "Is the Lord's Mansion about to be repaired?"
"The repair will be completed tomorrow."
Hobert nodded: "Settle their wages, give them a day off, but don't let them idle, go near the big pier and renovate a medium-sized hotel and a restaurant.
"Conrad, prepare twenty or thirty people to be ready to repair the big pier at any time."
Decades ago, when shipping was prosperous here, there used to be a large pier that could dock large ships.
Since the shipping was interrupted, the big pier has gradually been abandoned, and only the small pier where small boats can dock is still in use.
After the next construction task was explained, Philip and Conrad left.
Hobert left Seel behind: "You have performed very well recently, but as my captain of the guard, your strength is still too weak. Now I will give you a chance. Do you want to have the strength of the two knights in the territory?"
The two knights in the territory were both native nobles. Hobert had observed before that one was a Sequence 9 and the other should have a Level 3 Sealed Artifact.
And Viscount Wright was once a Sequence 8. Although the "Low Sequence" seems to have power far beyond ordinary people, they are also afraid of group fights. Viscount Wright was killed by a Sequence 9 with his subordinates.
"Of course I want to!" Schiel was excited at first, but soon his eyes dimmed: "But I heard that the knights are born so strong, I may not be able to in this lifetime..."
"You can also have corresponding strength through acquired 'efforts', and even stronger strength than that," Hobert said with a smile.
Seel was overjoyed. He immediately knelt down on one knee and swore allegiance to Hobert again.
After Seel swore and got up, Hobert said: "I have two pathways of potions suitable for you. One pathway can give you good fighting skills and increase your own charm. What you say will be easier to convince people.
"The second pathway is that you will have agile skills, your intelligence will also be improved, and you will have the ability to control flames in the future.
"I personally suggest that you choose the second pathway, so that you can go further in the future, and you can continue to leverage the advantages of your cleverness."
Hobert had just obtained the "Red Priest" card. If Seel chooses the "Hunter" pathway, his future will be bright.
The reason why he didn't mention the "Black Emperor" pathway potion is because there is no opportunity to digest the potion in the territory at all, and Seel's promotion will be very slow at that time.
Seel quickly said: "I believe in your choice."
Hobert smiled: "Rest well tonight, calm down tomorrow morning, and come to the Lord's Mansion to take the potion."
Although Schiel didn't understand what a potion was, he guessed that it should be something that could give him Beyonder abilities.
Hobert added: "Prepare yourself and recruit 50 young people in the town and villages to prepare for military training. Note that don't just look for young people in the town, but recruit more people from the villages according to the population ratio.
"After a while, I will buy a batch of rifles and invite a few instructors to train the recruited young people."
Seel was stunned at first, but soon he became excited. The Lord was going to build his own army!
He didn't expect that this matter would be handled by himself. He felt that when the army was built, he should also be a figure like a knight.
Finally, Hobert instructed: "Go and collect some animal offal and blood, I need it tomorrow."
If the weather is good tomorrow, he also plans to make a preliminary exploration of Full Moon Lake. Before that, it is best to hunt a batch of monsters to avoid encountering their attacks underwater.
After Seel also left with excitement, Fors asked: "I have always been curious, why are there so many monsters in Full Moon Lake?"
Logically speaking, Full Moon Lake is not too big a lake. It is difficult for Fors to imagine how there is space in the lake to hide so many monsters?
Hobert explained simply: "I suspect that there is a Sealed Artifact of a not low level in the lake, which has polluted the fish in the lake, so ordinary fish have become monsters.
"If there is a chance tomorrow, I will explore the lake to see if there is a way to reseal the Sealed Artifact."
Fors nodded: "Then be careful."
Then she smiled and said: "I didn't expect that I am going to witness the creation of an army. I must follow Seel to witness the whole process. This is something that I can never see or even think of in Backlund. I can even imagine the amazed expressions of the readers when they see this plot!"
Hobert said: "You should be more amazed by Seel becoming an Beyonder.
Fors was stunned: "Isn't that your reward to your subordinates?"
"It counts," Hobert said: "But have you ever thought about when and on what basis the official Beyonder of the Loen Kingdom was established."
Fors stood up suddenly: "Oh my god, this is actually the prototype of the official Beyonder! I, a wild Beyonder, am witnessing the prototype of an official Beyonder organization!
"Hobert, this is simply subverting my cognition!"
Hobert pursed his lips and smiled: "There will only be more things that subvert your cognition in the future. After we come here, this territory will have countless possibilities!
"If the problem of Full Moon Lake is solved, this place will definitely develop rapidly!"
In just a few words, Fors's passion was also aroused. She decided to start writing the beginning of a new book the day after tomorrow, no, tomorrow! We must complete this work as soon as possible to promote Jeffery Territory.
After dealing with official business, at about three o'clock in the afternoon, Hobert received a reply from Bishop Simpson in the study. His messenger was a spiritual world creature that looked like a big dog.
After delivering the letter, it didn't leave. It stuck out its tongue and wagged its tail, sitting there watching Hobert.
Hobert was slightly stunned: "What is the reward for delivering the letter?"
It stretched out its tongue again and wagged its tail.
There was no way to communicate effectively, so Hobert opened the letter. He believed that Bishop Simpson should mention it in the letter:
"Respected Baron Hobert:
I am very happy to receive your letter. First of all, congratulations on your victory last night. Jeffery Territory is very lucky to have a lord like you..."
Hobert skipped the continuous paragraphs of pleasantries and jumped directly to the useful content behind:
"...According to the monster image you sent, I think it is a Fish-Headed Crocodile Beast. Its pancreas is rich in spirituality and is the main material for treating heart and blood vessel disease potions.
Its pancreas is very rare. We can only use other spiritual materials to replace it now. I didn't expect that there would be a group of Fish-Headed Crocodile Beasts in Jeffery Territory.
Its intestines are an excellent material for making strong 'sleeping pills'. The meat on its back can enhance physical strength and strength after eating, and is the best tonic for weak patients.
If you have no other use for these materials, I am willing to purchase the pancreas, intestines, and back meat of the Fish-Headed Crocodile Beast.
The purchase prices are 30 gold Lire, 8 gold Lire, and 6 silver Lire respectively.
In addition, according to the information I have read, there must be two to three 'Mutated Fish-Headed Crocodile Beasts' in such a group. Its pancreas is one of the main materials of the 'Potion Professor'.
Its heart can make 'Berserk Potion', its lungs can make 'Diving Potion', its eyes can treat myopia, and its blood is an auxiliary material for 'Transformation Potion'.
If you get the above materials, I am also willing to purchase them. The prices are: pancreas 1500 gold Lire, heart 50 gold Lire, lungs 50 gold Lire, eyes 10 gold Lire, blood 3 gold Lire per Nega.
As for the plan to explore Full Moon Lake that you mentioned in the letter, please be sure to be careful and do not take risks. If you need anything, you can write to me.
Finally, my messenger likes to eat meat very much. You can give it a piece of raw meat of 5 Nega or more, otherwise it will stay with you for several days and may even rob your food."
The letter was signed with Bishop Simpson's fire lacquer seal.
Hobert sighed in his heart: As expected of the Earth Mother Church, whether it is an Beyonder creature or a spiritually rich creature, they are all arranged clearly.
And he didn't expect that hunting monsters would be a very profitable business!
Then Hobert glanced at the big dog in front of him and asked Roy outside the door to bring a piece of raw meat from the kitchen.
The messenger picked up the raw meat and returned to the spiritual world happily.
Hobert said to Roy outside the door again: "I'll give you an errand!"
Roy immediately said: "Yes, you say!"
Schiel, who was also a servant of the lord, is now the captain of the guard. He knows that the lord has a lot to do now, and he has many opportunities.
Hobert said: "Go and organize some manpower to cut off the pancreas, intestines, and back meat of the monster and store them separately.
"Then collect the heart, lungs, and eyes of the monster leader. After collecting what I want, send them all to my study."
"Yes!" Roy immediately went to organize manpower.
At four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Hobert felt that his spirituality had basically recovered, so he sacrificed the Beyonder characteristics of the "Disciplinary Knight" and the bracelet to the "Nation of Disorder".
Sitting on the "Iron Throne", Hobert picked up the bracelet and used the authority of the "Nation of Disorder" to quickly learn the ability of the bracelet: "You can use spiritual materials to create scrolls with freezing, paralysis, and other effects. There is a 10% probability of creating scrolls with Beyonder abilities through corresponding materials; the wearer's spirituality will be greatly increased."
The negative effects are not significant: "You will be very eager to obtain knowledge of mysticism; unless the wearer prays for power from the 'Hidden Sage', all ritual magic will end in failure."
Hobert was slightly stunned. He suspected that the Beyonder characteristics that provided power for this bracelet were marked by the "Hidden Sage"? Or was the owner of this Beyonder characteristic killed when the "Hidden Sage" instilled knowledge in him?
However, this bracelet is quite suitable for Beyonder of the "Black Emperor" and "Justiciar" pathways, after all, they rarely use ritual magic.
Hobert looked at the other four magical items sacrificed by Rafter yesterday. One was a magical item of the "Hunter" pathway, two were extraordinary items of the "Black Emperor" pathway, and the other was an Beyonder item of the "Warrior" pathway.
Corresponding to the Sequence 5 to Sequence 7 levels, Hobert doesn't need it now, so he simply put it in the "Nation of Disorder."
Just as he was about to leave, Hobert suddenly remembered that he hadn't observed the owners of the two newly appeared stars for so long.
He happened to have time today, and it wasn't night, so he could observe them.
