"My lord, the supplies have arrived, and there is also a letter from Master Howard." Peck shouted outside the door before he even entered.

"Got it, know it, what's the rush, you must know that you are the housekeeper of the earl's mansion now, this is something you can't handle, how dare I leave other things to you in the future." Xiaozhi went out quickly, still reprimanding. write.

However, looking at the pace of Earl Xiaozhi, he himself is also very excited.

"My lord, fulfill the mission, these are my lord handed over to the earl, there is still a letter here." Howard's confidant Casio said with a smile.

He was also curious about this newly-appointed earl. Someone wanted the land of Scarlet Continent. If there was no problem in their mind, they would have another plan.

When Casio first entered the Scarlet Continent, his eyes were also bright. Although it is still under development, it can be imagined that it will be absolutely limitless in the future.

"Thank you, Casio, it's a long journey. It's better to wash your face first, and I will let people prepare food later." Xiaozhi took the letter and continued.

"The Lord Earl, you are busy first." Casio finished speaking and left under Peck's leadership.

Opening the letter, Xiao Zhi read it again. In addition to the initial greeting, it was a list of these supplies, as well as the talents given by His Majesty the Emperor.

Xiaozhi is more confident in his heart.

"Leo, you select some talents from this group of people to continue to add to the various departments." Xiaozhi said.

Leo, the inspector general for the evaluation of officials, has the function of evaluating and selecting officials.

"Okay, Lord Earl, I will do it now." Leo bowed back.

"Okay, let's do our own thing, we must eat this batch of materials as soon as possible, and truly digest it, then our territory will definitely usher in new development." Xiaozhi stood up, looking forward to the future infinitely.

The officials below also nodded and said yes, then retired and prepared for their own affairs.

When everyone left, Xiao Zhi opened the second page of the letter, looked at a notice of admission with mercury inlays, and meditated on it.

"Sacred Magic Academy Admission Notice."

This is the emperor's reward to Howard.

The Academy of Holy Magic and the Academy of Holy Warriors are the two highest institutions of the empire.

There is no person in Howard's family who meets the qualifications to practice magic, so this admission qualification is given to Xiaozhi.

In exchange for the prosperity of the Howard family for a century, Howard is very optimistic about Xiaozhi's future.

Xiaozhi is now a junior magician. If he wants to be promoted to an intermediate magician, he needs a lot of things. The most important thing is the cultivation technique. The Magic Academy is a good place to go.

"Ellen, do you say I am going or not?" A person flashed in the shadow.

"My lord, don't you already have a choice!" Allen said lightly.

Bam, codenamed Anstab, is the No. 1 leader of Anbu. He is responsible for the collection of intelligence in the territory and is directly responsible to Xiaozhi.

"Look up for me to check the person who came this time. If there is an insider, you know how to deal with it!" Xiao Zhi's voice was slightly cold.

The time of the admission notice is October in winter, and now it is early spring, and there is still a long time to go. Xiaozhi intends to make good use of this time to build a good castle.

The weather in the Scarlet Continent was like a child's face. It changed a lot. It was still sunny yesterday, but today it made Xiaozhi feel a bit of chill.

Wrapped in his clothes, Xiaozhi ate breakfast and listened to Peck's report on the status of the territory construction yesterday.

"My lord, yesterday we have counted the supplies clearly, and they have been put in place" Peck took out the ledger and handed it to Xiaozhi.

After receiving the ledger, Xiao Zhi wiped his mouth, and then carefully looked at Peikko's statistics, plus his previous supplies.

As far as food is concerned, this summer can be carried over. When autumn arrives, the food will no longer be a problem. The big deal is to buy some food.

Xiaozhi thought for a moment and continued.

"In terms of food, although there is sufficient food, we must be fully prepared. As far as meat is concerned, it is still lacking. The army should not be idle. Let me enter the forest and round up the beasts."

"Also, doctors must pay attention to hygiene. This will let the director of health neon specifically catch it."

"Let's do so much first, you can accompany me around." Xiaozhi thought.

You can't just rely on fantasy, you have to go to the field and conduct actual investigations, so that you can be comprehensive.

"Okay, my lord!" Peck replied with a bow.

......

Xiaozhi and Peke spent the whole morning watching the operations of various departments and the construction sites of the workers. Little Chile used his own experience to discuss some feasible construction plans with the workers, and the workers were amazed.

Unexpectedly, the Scarlet Earl was so knowledgeable.

"You must pay attention to the moisture when planting this seed..." Xiaozhi was talking to the farmer who was planting the land.

"Lord Earl, the food in the warehouse has been lost." Tony, who was in charge of the warehouse, suddenly reported.

Food is the top priority for the entire territory, and Xiaozhi immediately put aside the matter when he heard that someone had stolen the food.

"Tony, tell me what the **** is going on?" Xiaozhi looked at Tony suspiciously.

Tony looked panicked.

"My lord, I don't know what's going on."

"I was on duty in the warehouse last night, and I saw a dark shadow. I just lost my consciousness." Tony's heart was lingering.

"Shadow?" Xiao Zhi's face sank.

Seeing this, Peck said sharply.

"Leaving without authorization, what should be the crime? Your excuses are too far-fetched." After Peck said, he signaled to the left and right to arrest Tony.

"Forget it, Tony, you take me there!" Xiao Zhi lifted his leg and walked away.

Tony quickly followed.

The warehouse for storing grain is the first to be built, and the grain should not be stored late, or the grain will be damp.

In the morning, Xiaozhi didn't go to the warehouse because it was a building that had been renovated a long time ago, so he didn't pay attention to it, and didn't expect this kind of thing to happen.

The tall stone walls and built-up warehouses, although not so exquisite in appearance, are strong enough, how could anyone steal food.

Xiaozhi is puzzled.

"My lord, just ahead." Tony led the way.

Xiao Zhi squatted down and saw a small paw print on the ground, but Xiao Zhi realized that it was a disguise. It seemed that someone here wanted to try the majesty of the lord.

Looking at the lack of food in the warehouse, fortunately, the lack is not much, just a few bags.

"Okay, I see, Tony, you can go back and rest." Xiaozhi saw that it was someone deliberately looking for something.

"Peck, go to Bam, he will tell you who did it." Xiaozhi said confidently.

Peck was stunned, with doubts in his heart, but did not ask.

"Okay, it's been a whole morning, we went to the newly built Sam's Tavern to taste, and see how Uncle Sam's craftsmanship is." Xiaozhi smiled. *
