People are devouring, I can copy and synthesize

Chapter 298 Opening up the Knights' Territory
Chen Hao's way back was very calm and smooth, so he returned to Bauhinia Ridge in the evening, before it was dark.

Seeing Chen Hao's return, Jane's eyes lit up with joy: "Hao, are you back yet? Why are you coming back so soon? Didn't you say you're going to go for a few days?"

Chen Hao reached out and took off his cloak, put the weapon on the table, and then took out the money bag and put it down.

"I didn't expect that everything went very smoothly, and there was not much delay, so I rushed back before dark. By the way, you take the money," said the harvest on the road, and put the silver coins, copper coins and ten The gold coins were given to Jane.

When Jane saw ten gold coins and many silver and copper coins, it was like a dream. She knew that even if she worked for ten years, she would not be able to earn so many gold coins.

Jane took the money, a little at a loss. "Where did you get the money?"

Chen Hao said lightly: "I met a group of goblins on the road. After killing them, I found some spoils on them. Then I went to the city and got them after paying the reward. Don't worry, the way is right. , you just take the flowers."

Although Zhen was still a little puzzled when she heard Chen Hao's words, she was still very happy. At least she didn't have to worry about family expenses in the short term.

In the evening, it was still broth and black bread. After eating, Chen Hao began to practice knight breathing.

It's a pity that every time I practice the knight's breathing method, the increase in strength is very small for me, so I took out the Wutang fruit that was synthesized twice.

After taking a bite, a huge amount of energy erupted in his body instantly, allowing his body to gain a lot of energy again, and began a rapid evolution.

It's just that this time the evolution has nothing but comfort, after the whole vine fruit is used up.

Chen Hao felt the power, it should have doubled again, this should be the power of a great knight, right?

Early the next morning, Chen Hao took out all four wolf meat, and then also took out more than 70 catties of salt.

Jane was startled from ear to ear when she saw the wolf meat on the table. "Where did you get these meats? And what are these whites? Is it table salt? It looks much better than the salt eaten in the baron's house."

Chen Hao nodded: "This is wolf meat, but after special treatment, it is very tender. You can use salt to make bacon, and then you can eat this meat at home. You don't need to save. It has 200 meat. More than 300 catties of wolf meat is enough for us to eat for a long time, and there is leftover salt, which is usually used, other salt tastes too bitter."

Meat and salt are the two most expensive items in the family. I didn't expect my son to solve them with ease.

As for the black bread, it was so cheap that a copper coin could buy a pound, and two pounds of black bread would last a man to death.

Just remembering the smell of black bread at home, Chen Hao also frowned a little. Not to mention the smell of black bread, it has a musty smell, and the important thing is that there is often sand in it.I am not a domestic chicken, so I don't need to grind the food in my body by swallowing sand.

Jane cut a piece of wolf meat and went into the kitchen to make soup, while Chen Hao turned around and left the yard, walking towards the bakery.

In the early morning, there are not many people in the bakery, and people usually come to buy in the evening, so it will be cheaper to have black bread.

"Bring me 200 pounds of brown bread!"

The owner of the bakery was startled for a moment: "Aren't you afraid of spoiling after buying so much? Although black bread can be stored, it can be stored for ten days and a half months at most, and it will go bad if you store it any longer."

Chen Hao nodded to the shop owner: "I've been eating a lot these days and it's exhausting, don't worry, I can finish it."

Now is not a year of certain disasters, so there are not too many restrictions on the purchase of food black bread. For the bakery owner, the more Chen Hao buys, the more he earns.

Then the shopkeeper brought out two big bags of black bread: "Each bag weighs 100 pounds, do you need me to send it home for you? Are these two bags a gift?"

"No, I can do it myself."

Chen Hao looked at the bread, gave the other two silver coins, and then walked towards his home with a bag of black bread in one hand.

Back in the yard, he directly synthesized two bags of black bread, and then a delicate linen bag appeared.

Chen Hao tried it, and found that there were more than 100 catties of black bread inside. After opening the cloth bag, he picked up a piece of black bread and put it under his nose. After smelling it, a smile appeared on his face.

At this time, the black bread has no musty smell at all, but instead exudes the fragrance of buckwheat, which means that all the impurities inside have been removed, and the nutrition is probably much higher than that of ordinary black bread.

He picked up the black bread and brought it to the kitchen, and saw that Jane was just filling up the thick soup.

"Listen to me, we will cook thick soup in the future, we will each have a bowl, don't save, our family does not lack this, this is 100 catties of black bread, I think it will be enough for the two of us for a while."

Looking at the hundreds of catties of wolf meat Zhen did not refuse, but his son's concern for him was still extremely happy in his heart.

"Okay, it's all up to you. The soup is ready, and you just bought fresh bread. We will eat the one you just bought in the morning."

……

With Chen Hao's action, the conditions at home are obviously much better than before.

And Chen Hao also went to the endless forest to hunt from time to time, and then I took it to Chiyan City for sale.

More than half a year has passed quickly, and at this time, Chen Hao's strength has reached the level of a titled knight in professional terms.

In Chiyan City, the office of the noble council, Chen Hao held a development permit with a faint smile on his face.

"This aristocrat is really pitiful. Just a knight collar development certificate needs 1000 gold coins. No wonder fewer and fewer people are willing to develop land. Although there is a condition that they will not have to pay taxes within ten years, but in this There is no money to pay taxes, but there are also advantages, that is, it is directly under the noble council and does not belong to any lord, that is, it is an independent knight, not anyone's vassal."

Of course, being able to get this pioneering certificate is related to being a member of the nobles, but what I can get is only a knight-level pioneering certificate.

If you are an ordinary civilian, let alone spend 1000 gold coins, even if you spend 1 gold coins, you don't even want to get this kind of pioneering proof.

In this world, the status of nobles and commoners is very different, and there is absolutely no equality at all.

The Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce, that is, the small chamber of commerce that Chen Hao traded and sold the Scarlet Fire Wolf skin with for the first time.

After Chen Hao stepped into the chamber of commerce, the person in charge of the chamber of commerce, the gray-haired old man whom he met for the first time, quickly walked out.

"My lord, it is a great honor for you to come to our chamber of commerce. We have prepared your goods for you."

Chen Hao came to the yard behind the chamber of commerce, and suddenly found that there were three carriages here.

A carriage obviously contained daily necessities and food.There is also a carriage that pulls two kinds of medicinal materials, and the last carriage is loaded with some tools.

Around the carriage, there were hundreds of hunched figures standing here and there, looking at Chen Hao with awe.

"It's all ready for you. This car is 500 catties of flour, 100 catties of salt and some daily necessities, and then the car in the middle is the blood limonium and strong bones you need. As for the last car There were iron pots and other utensils, some farm implements, and 80 slaves, 20 men and [-] women."

Seeing that Chen Hao hesitated to speak, Chen Hao glanced at the other party: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong? Don't sell me some problematic slaves!"

The manager quickly shook his head: "That's not true, I just want to remind you that these male slaves, although they are all over 30 years old according to your requirements, and each one has been carefully selected, but they can't work for a long time at all. Heavy work. You can understand that they are at their age. The body is so depleted that they don't even have a good job for a few years."

Chen Hao raised his eyebrows: "It doesn't matter, I just take them to open up the knight collar, and I don't want them to work for me for a long time, as long as they can do the job well during this time. If they can satisfy me , I don’t mind granting them the status of citizens.”

Chen Hao did this as a last resort. After all, you need a leader to open up Knight Ridge. If you don’t have hundreds of people, then his status as a lord will not be recognized. This certificate of pioneering is also considered in vain bought.

"My lord, if you develop the knight collar, our Chamber of Commerce is willing to help you!" Chen Hao's words made the old man's eyes shine.

Chen Hao glanced at the other party, with a faint smile: "It's not necessary to help each other. If I can build a business in my side, I will be very happy if you can open a business in the past."

Hearing Chen Hao's words, his expression fell into hesitation. After all, it would take a lot of energy and financial resources to open up a new chamber of commerce.

Sometimes even some remote towns don't have a stronghold of the Chamber of Commerce. After all, the economy cannot develop, and the maintenance of the Chamber of Commerce there will require a lot of expenses.

Just remembering the goods that the other party had sold in his Chamber of Commerce for more than half a year, the old man gritted his teeth.

"Don't worry! As long as you build the manor at the pioneering point. We will definitely go to your territory to build a chamber of commerce trading point..."

When Chen Hao heard the words, he admired the old man's decisiveness. "Since this is the case, let's make a deal. I require slaves to have blacksmiths, carpenters, bricklayers and other professionals among the slaves, right?"

The old man hurriedly said: "There are all of them, but this kind of slaves are very popular. If you don't want these slaves who are over 30 years old, I'm afraid you can't find them, but there are not many. There are only two blacksmiths and bricklayers. Two, three carpenters, one tailor, one stonemason, and the rest are experienced farmers."

Seeing this, Chen Hao nodded, "Okay, I'll take them out now." Then he led the crowd out of the city, and their line of work also attracted many curious eyes on the street.

"Is this someone going to open up the territory again?"

"No way? These days, who is going to open up territories? What can be opened up has already been developed, right?"

"If you go to the endless forest, it's just a boring job. Who knows how many wild beasts and strange beasts there are in it."

……

Chen Hao ignored everyone's whispers, instead, he led the slave with a frightened face towards the outside of the city, and gradually disappeared outside the city.
