Farming Lord of Crossing

Chapter 175 174. Questioning
The magician in Fortress Town turned to others, and dared to fight openly with the army commander in Fortress Town, and even killed the army commander. Thomas knew that this matter must be reported to the lord, and the lord himself will handle it.

In the government affairs hall of Stan Town, Ross sat behind a desk full of copywriting and books, frowning as he looked at Thomas's handwritten letter. A smile appeared on his solemn face: "Thomas has finally been promoted to the second rank!" He said and handed the letter to Bruce who was not far away.

Bruce quickly read the letter and said with a smile: "This guy finally didn't spend more than a year in vain! Now, Thomas' position as the commander of the army is completely secured.

However, how should Olig handle this incident.A small first-level magician was dealt with casually, but there are still more than a dozen magicians in Fortress Town. If it is not handled properly and all these magicians run away, it will be bad?Even those high-level fighters may leave because of this, after all, they all have the status of free citizens. "

"Hey!" Rose sighed helplessly while rubbing his swollen temples. There are too many things to consider in building a territory.And when there are too many people in the territory, various ideas and needs will make things more complicated.

Farmland needs to be reclaimed, refugees need to be recruited, villages and towns need to be built, soldiers need to be trained, orcs need to be wiped out, minerals need to be mined, potions need to be planted, industries need to be developed, officials need to be trained and selected, laws and regulations need to be established, and so on. It has to be considered and planned, and the emotional factors of the Master are mixed in, so that the difficulty level of all these things will rise in a straight line.

It's not like playing territory-building games by yourself in the previous life. As long as you have enough gold coins and resources, you can build as you want, and you can play as you want.

In fact, the main reason Ross kept the mages on the first line of defense in the Western Regions is that these mages have experienced many battles, and the large-scale violent attacks of magic are of great help on the battlefield. Keeping them on the line of defense is also for Thomas. , Add an insurance policy to this war.

Now it seems that it is no longer appropriate for the magicians to stay in the fortress town with difficult conditions, and arrangements must be made.

Thinking of this, Ross said to Bruce, "Call that Ptolemy from the Wilson firm, I have something to ask him."

After a while, Ptolemy, with a goatee on his round face, came in with a smile on his face, and bowed respectfully to salute: "Nice to meet you, Dear Baron Terrasse! What can I do for you? Is it?"

Rose suddenly got up and smashed the water glass beside Ptolemy under the feet, and roared angrily: "Wilson Firm is so brave, they dare to poach people from me."

Ptolemy was terrified by Ross's actions, knelt on the ground with a pale face and tremblingly said: "Master Baron, you~ you~ what are you referring to? Little man~ little man don't know~"

"I don't know?" Rose raised his voice, stepped to Ptolemy's head and asked loudly: "Very well, let me remind you, Oleg knows?"

"Oleg?" Ptolemy raised his head in surprise, then hurriedly lowered his head when he saw Los's cold expression, and said quickly: "The lord is talking about that Ou Lige who is greedy for vanity, ungrateful for profit and has no brains." Lige? He did sign a prostitution agreement with our firm?"

"Prostitution agreement?" Rose's tone was a little flat, "He advertised everywhere in the territory that he had signed a cooperation agreement with one of the largest trading houses in Wellington, and he is about to go to Wellington City to live a wealthy and comfortable life of the upper class. The magicians and warriors in my territory are all thinking about it, instead of working hard to build the territory, they all want to go to your Wilson firm."

Ptolemy could hear the fat all over his body trembling, and hurriedly explained: "Master Baron, this is none of my business. Our agreement is that they will serve the firm for life, and the firm will provide materials, and the magic items they make, In the end, it will be divided into three or seven."

"Thirty to seven, you are really a businessman! I don't know if this Olig is stupid?" Luo Si sneered secretly in his heart, and asked coldly, "They?"

Ptolemy could not wait to give himself a few mouthfuls, and carefully explained: "Three, a total of three magicians signed the agreement."

"Very good, very good!" Ross's tone was cold and without any warmth, "Your Wilson firm is very good. You dare to dig my people. I have to say that you Ptolemy is much more courageous than Sir Wilson."

Hearing Sir Wilson's name, Ptolemy's fat body trembled into a sieve, and his favorite cotton robe was instantly wet with cold sweat: "Male~ Baron~ Lord Baron, villain~ villain is wrong~ "

Ross didn't even look at him, turned back to the seat behind the desk, and said in a flat tone: "I don't want to listen to your explanation, there is only one way to deal with this matter. First of all, because of you, I need to appease the people on the territory. Magicians and warriors. I plan to build a second-tier wizard tower to appease the magicians, and the money will be paid by your firm."

Hearing this, Ptolemy couldn't help raising his head and looking at Los in disbelief at the charge of disrespect.

Ross ignored him and continued: "The second point is to target those three ungrateful and resigned magicians. Now that you have signed the contract, let them stay in Stanland, and then squeeze them hard, making them more miserable and more miserable. Alright, let others see the fate of betraying Stanland and me, Baron Terras!"

Even the cheapest and lowest price of a second-tier mage tower is worth more than 60 gold coins.Squeezing the magician who signed the contract will even worsen the reputation of the firm in Stanland, and there will be no reason for professionals to cooperate with them.

Ptolemy looked up at Ross pitifully and said, "Master Baron, Wilson Firm is willing to terminate the agreement with the three magicians and pay you 30 gold coins as compensation. Do you think it's okay?"

Ross stared coldly at Ptolemy and said: "You are not qualified to negotiate with me, understand? Go back and tell Sir Wilson exactly what I said. I think if he is a smart person, he will agree. Otherwise~ ~~”

"Yes, yes~" Lost stared at Ptolemy, but he felt like he was being watched by a peerless beast. He felt trembling, and wanted to escape here immediately.

"Let's go, I hope to see a brand new mage tower in my territory within three months!" Los waved his hand, then lowered his head and continued to read without talking. Ptolemy immediately got up and didn't look back. left.

After Ptolemy left, Ross shrugged at Bruce, who had been silent in the house and stared at him dumbfounded at this moment: "You think I want this! I am a baron threatening a small business manager , It’s really shameful to throw it home. If only I had enough gold coins to build a few mage towers directly, why would I lose my share like this?”

Bruce lowered his head in shame: "I'm sorry, my lord, I..."

Seeing Bruce like this, Los waved his hands hurriedly and said, "Okay, it's not your fault. You should settle the workshops in each village and town as soon as possible, improve the environment of each village and town, and improve the quality of life of the residents. It's also very important."
