The feeling of waiting for news is extremely long, but there will always be a result.

Xia Duo confirmed the supplies provided by the lord from the town hall. As soon as he returned to the mage tower, he heard some apprentices discussing the development of the territory.

Xia Duo grabbed an apprentice with "Booz" written on his clothes and asked, "Apprentice Booth, did you just say that Master Tower will exclude the mage from going to the Green Pearl Forest for rotation?"

"Yes, Master Mage." The apprentice named Booth was suddenly asked by an official mage, and his expression was a little nervous, but when he discovered that it was Xia Duo, he relaxed again.

With admiration in his eyes, he respectfully said: "Master Xia Duo, not only an official mage, but apprentices have also been recruited, but the number of places is very small."

"Do you know me?" Xia Duo asked puzzled.

"Yes, I once heard Edridge talk about the deeds of adults. That arcane contest, the adults defeated the foreign mages, we all admire you!"

"Yes, yes, me too!" The apprentices next to each other also agreed.

Rao is Xia Duo with a good mental quality, but being praised so personally, he still couldn't help his mouth curling up, and after a few words of encouragement, Xia Duo returned to the residence with a double good mood.

Now that the Tower of Time is ready for the rotation of the wizard, it means that the wizard wizard has no longer attacked the caster who entered the Green Orb Forest.

Of course, it is also possible that the elf mage only attacked the mage apprentice, but this chance is very small, and Xia Duo is not an apprentice mage.

Now Daxialing's development has truly entered the countdown.

...

The next day, Xia Duo went to the Leaton Chamber of Commerce to find Yarman's steward. He learned from him that the Savile leader's recent material transfers were very frequent. It seemed that this posture was going to be a big deal.

"Manager Yarman, how many leaders have you recruited now?"

Xia Duo asked about the recruitment of the leaders almost every day, but the number of people recruited every day was getting fewer and fewer, but because of the fewer and fewer people, he was also very concerned.

What is the root of a territory, there is a saying on the earth that can be described well, "If you save land and lose people, you will lose all people; if you save people and lose land, you will save people and land."

The lord of Netheril valued territory more, while Xia Duo valued people more. Only people can create productivity and used in the magical world. Only the more people can produce more spellcasters.

Hearing Xia Duo’s question, Mr. Yarman, who had long been accustomed to his question, skillfully opened up a stack of papers and cautiously said: “My lord, due to the development of the Savile collar recently, there are fewer and fewer people available for recruitment. Everyone has the courage to work hard from scratch regardless of everything."

"How many people are there? Say!"

"After the Lord left at noon yesterday, two more people were recruited. The recruits today haven't reported, but—"

"Got it." Xia Duo understood what he meant, maybe not today!

Xia Duo frowned and murmured: "Yesterday's two, plus the number of recruits before, there are only 56. Not to mention the development of such a large territory, the construction of a small village is hanging!"

If he is a great arcanist now, he just needs to go to the interior and shout casually, not to mention tens of thousands, at least thousands of people can be fooled!

Unfortunately he is not.

"Yalman is in charge, and the recruitment cannot be stopped." After thinking about it, Chateau still mentioned the slaves. "Does the Liaton Chamber of Commerce have any special channels to get people?"

"My lord means--" Yarman pointed out.

"That's what you think! Is there any?"

"My lord, the Leighton Chamber of Commerce has never run this kind of business." But seeing Chateau unmoved, Arman gritted his teeth and said, "I can think of a way."

As one of the main managers of the Chamber of Commerce, Yarman is very aware of the current status of the Leaton Chamber of Commerce. Suddenly, there is no contact with the Elves. The Chamber of Commerce today is just an empty shelf with no gold coins and no actual industry.

Although he didn't understand why Mrs. Patty would take such a big risk to invest in a territory with nothing, but now that he has decided, he can only do his best.

"Very good!" Xia Duo nodded in satisfaction. He became more and more interested in Yarman. During this time, he was responsible for all the docking between the Liaton Chamber of Commerce and Xia Duo.

Be serious, responsible, and methodical. It would be even better if you could bring Daxia to lead.

As soon as the voice changed, Chateau asked another key question: "By the way, Mr. Yarman, are the ships I need ready?"

"My lord, it is impossible for the local chamber of commerce to sell ships, and renting is very unrealistic. Mrs. Patty has arranged for someone to go to Seeboden to buy them. The shipbuilding industry there is developed. If everything goes well, you should be able to get to Saville these days. I got it."

Yarman took out a few more parchments, and handed them to Chateau. "The crew has been recruited. They are all Savile natives. The captain has even gone to sea."

Xia Duo took it over without paying too much attention. These people were unlikely to join Da Xia Ling, and could only be regarded as hired workers.

"Hmm—" Xia Duo's random flipping movement suddenly stopped, and turned to the previous page with some disbelief. After making sure that she read it correctly, she closed the information.

"Arman, this captain named'Owen' is almost 60 years old this year, right?"

The 60-year-old captain ~lightnovelpub.net~ is rare even on the earth, not to mention the long-lived Netheril at the age of 50!

And judging from this information, this Captain Owen is just an ordinary person, and Xia Duo doubts that he can get on the ship at this age!

"My lord, this Captain Owen is a bit old, but I guarantee that he can do the job as a captain. Besides, it's not that easy to find a captain in his prime!"

There is also a bit of dissatisfaction in Yarman's words. The Liaton Chamber of Commerce has not been engaged in water transport trade, and it is impossible to recruit a normal captain. Even this Owen was only found after a lot of effort.

How could it be so negated!

"Well, I believe you, this is Owen!"

According to Yarman's consistent and reliable performance, Xia Duo didn't question anything anymore. Anyway, he was going to meet with that Owen. The fake is not true.

He actually hoped that Owen could really continue to work, otherwise it would be a hassle to find the captain!

...

Next, Xia Duo looked at the latest bill again, and the series of figures had already made him a little numb. After leaving the Leighton Chamber of Commerce, Chateau went to the barracks.

It has been so long since the squad of soldiers supported by Lord Savile was in order to save money. Although the lord supported his squad of soldiers, he had to pay for his salary.

He is responsible for not just salary, food and accommodation, training, equipment, etc., and it takes at least 20 gold coins a day to maintain a team of 10 ordinary soldiers.

It has been almost half a month since the deal with the lord was reached. If the soldiers were taken first, then several hundred gold coins would be gone.

But now that the territory development has a quasi-credibility, and only the ship can arrive, the soldiers can take it back first, and get familiar with it by the way.
