"Five-hundred Gold Coin, is that only so much?" Odin frowned and had a headache.

The currency of this World is a coin made of precious metals. One Gold Coin is equivalent to one hundred Silver Coins, and one Silver Coin is equivalent to one hundred Copper Coins.

The living expenses of an ordinary family of three in one month are only 30 or 40 Silver Coins, and will not use more than five Gold Coins throughout the year.

The huge sum of five hundred Gold Coins is enough for ordinary families to use for a hundred years!

But in the small castle of Odin, if you want to maintain the dignity of the nobility, five hundred Gold Coins can only be used for one year. This can only be done with considerable frugality.

When I think of this, I can’t help but envy the elder sister Olivia, the flint mine, with a steady income of a thousand gold for a year, able to live a luxurious Baron aristocratic life, plus other taxes in the territory. Raise a ten-member Knight squad.

Are there any resources available for my Boulder Town?

Odin is lost in thought...

Looking at his master's frown, he clearly sees that his master is making plans for his future life, which makes his desire for silence. Some begin to stir.

"Master!"

Butler Modi reminded softly.

"It’s almost time for dinner. You can invite Administrative Officer Ruvid and Knight Kunas to dine together and listen to their opinions."

"Good idea Modi, let’s arrange it like this, dinner Be rich in preparation."

"Leave it to me, sir!"

The old butler in a black tuxedo bowed back gracefully and closed the door of the study. Walk along the rotating stone steps in the fort towards the kitchen.

He found that the master was a little different. When he first came to Boulder Fort, he did not pay attention to the things in the fort. He stayed in the room all day in a daze, or went to the study to see some bard writings. Biography of Knight.

But in the past few days, the master was obviously more active. He often inspected work in the fort, or asked some strange questions. Just yesterday, he even proposed to replace the personal servant Nishizawa with the Liz maid. Heavens! I hope Earl Otis will not kill him when he knows about it.

Thinking of this Butler Modi couldn’t help but get a shock, his body straightened, "Although I don’t know why the master suddenly became motivated, but I have to prove to the master that Modi is not old!"

……

Before the dinner started, two nominal teachers came together.

Blond and brown pupils, the tuxedo is a tutor from the Bloodhoof Castle, who is responsible for teaching the Earl’s children to learn aristocratic etiquette. At the age of 40, I heard that his father is still a honored Baron, but he fell down. Only attached to the Bloodhoof family.

Now I am dispatched to Boulder Town with Butler Modi. I work as the town’s administrative officer and help Odin manage Boulder Town. It is an equivalent to the mayor’s existence. He has certain rights and is limited to Boulder Town. resident.

"Master Odin! We are not late, your complexion looks much better, and the wound should heal well!"

Ruvid exaggeratedly said hello, all over his face Smile.

On the other side, Knight Kunas was expressionless and meticulously gave a Knight salute.

Odin didn't care about the two people who had different reactions, and raised his hand to signal the two teachers to take their seats.

"It seems that Ruvid teacher has been busy for a day and can’t wait, Butler Modi, it’s time to serve dinner."

"Yes, master!"

Old Modi bowed gracefully and left the restaurant, and went downstairs to the castle to inform the kitchen to serve food.

After seated, Knight Kunas's square face was still expressionless, and his face was stiff. Odin was also quite helpless about this.

According to the memory in his mind, Kunas is from a regular Knight Academy and has the strength of the silver stage. What he hopes most now is to be able to perform meritorious service on the battlefield, earn the earl and be honored, and become a glorious person. The honored Knight, became a nobleman.

But now he is assigned to Odin, who is least seen by the earl, as his Knight teacher. He really can’t imagine what future he has in this barren Boulder Town. The famous Knight can't afford it, and maybe even his horses will be replaced by the old man with Gold Coins.

Following Odin, there is almost no chance of going to the battlefield. If you can't go to the battlefield, you can't make meritorious service. If you don't make any credit, you will be honored.

So, it's no wonder Kunas has a straight face all the time.

This atmosphere did not last long. The servants and maids put on the table one after another with the dinner plates, a whole fat roasted chicken, a plate of steamed fish fillets, and the smell of wheat overflowed. Of dark beer, a small portion of mashed potatoes and white bread slices per person.

It’s not a very hearty dinner for the nobles, but the Polish aunt’s cooking skills are very good. Every dish is very appetizing. The heavy roast chicken is paired with light fish fillets. Coupled with the dark beer full of hops, it is enough to impress people's taste buds.

Even Kunas relaxed his expression and concentrated on enjoying the delicious dishes.

Looking at the two teachers gobbled up, it seemed like they had been hungry for several days. The food on the table was decreasing at a rate visible to naked eye. Seeing this, Odin also quickly entered the state.

Soon, the three of them wiped out all the dishes like strong wind scattering the last clouds. After eating, Ruvid picked up the wine glass and praised it.

"Thank the Lord for his gift so that we can enjoy such wonderful food."

"Praise War God!" Kunas finally said a word.

Odin is shrugged that cannot be denied. The original owner is an unbeliever, so he doesn't have to praise anyone.

There are gods in this World, and the more widely spread are Light God, Elf God, Dragon God, War God, Moon God, Harvest God, Love God, God of Death, etc., apart from this there are some racial gods such as Elf gods, sea gods, barbaric gods, beast gods, wing gods...

If you really want to make a detailed calculation, there are a lot of various gods, and if If there is no conflict in doctrine, it is allowed to believe in multiple Spiritual Gods.

These gods are not made up by people to meet their spiritual needs, but are actually manifested by Divine Vestige, and even given by divine force. In this regard, Light God is the best at it, and it is recorded Reveal the Spiritual God with the most Divine Vestige.

However, in the past two hundred years, the Divine Vestige revealed by Spiritual God has become less and less. The last recorded Divine Vestige was the Light God descended 80 years ago, and it hasn’t been there since that time. Divine Vestige has fallen, and there are more and more unbelievers and unbelievers.

Ruvid and Kunas are typical simple believers, and sometimes praise them when they think of it. They are not a sincere belief in Spiritual God.

From the two compliments, we can see that there are different Spiritual Gods. Ruvid talked about thanking the Lord for the gift. This is the beginning of the standard Light God compliment, and Kunas’s compliment is simple and straightforward. , Most Knights believe in War God, and their desire for war is the strongest.

With the exit of the compliment, it means that the dinner is officially over. The servants enter the restaurant and remove the plate, leaving a clean and tidy tabletop.

"Kunas teacher, I feel that my head is not so painful anymore. Knight's cultivation can't be stopped because of a small injury. This is not in line with the spirit of Knight. I hope to continue the Knight course tomorrow. "

Kunas looked a lot better after listening to Odin's request, "No problem, I am very pleased that you can think like this."

Kunas is a personality with the orthodox Knight spirit. Originally complaining about his situation, he also cheered up a little bit, I hope the noble master is not 3 minutes hot.

After all, Odin, who left the Fort Bloodhoof and became independent, already possesses all the rights of the adult noble Baron. In Boulder Town, Odin is the undeserved king, and even the two teachers must act according to Odin's will.

"In addition, Ruvid teacher, you have been serving as Boulder Town's administrative officer for a week. I think you have enough understanding. Let's talk about the town's development plan next."

"Oh, Lord Baron!"

Ruvid exaggeratedly drank the remaining dark beer in his glass.

"I'm really unimaginable. There is such a barren place in the land of Lord Earl. I walked around every corner of the town, but I didn't see anything that could be replaced by Gold Coin.

p>

Besides, the last administrative officer was simply a stupid pig animal. With tax collected in advance and wages not paid, Boulder Town’s finances have been messed up."

"Such a serious mess. How big is the financial gap in the town?"

"It is estimated that it will take more than ten Gold Coins.

The town hall needs to be renovated again, and a group of workers will be recruited by this move. Payday ends, so that you can build up your credibility and make residents believe in the new noble master again.

We can also recognize the overcharged tax, and there is not much anyway, but we can do with the outstanding wages. Don't worry, the two above are enough to prove your kindness."

Ruvid obviously has a good idea of ​​how to build a new city hall.

"How many residents are there in my territory?"

"According to the report left by the previous term, there are 360 ​​residents in the residential area in the center of Boulder Town. There are also three small villages in the area, one hundred and twenty in Shanghetun, one hundred and fifty in Xiahetun, and two hundred in Shuichetun.

Uh...but this is a statistic five years ago. Yes."

Ruvid made a helpless expression and greeted the previous administrative officer again in his heart.

Odin supported his forehead with his hand, and asked with his last hope, "Is there no better news, such as...the discovery of flint mine..."

The voice is getting smaller and smaller, and his eyes are staring at Ruvid through his fingers, as if he is expecting something.

The sudden dignified atmosphere made Kunas also tense, and also looked towards Ruvid.

"Uh...you guys, sigh~"

Ruvid sighed, shook the head.

"But judging from my perspective, Boulder Town still has the potential for development. In this week, I inquired a lot of useless news in the town. In the meantime, I found an interesting Phenomenon.

The amount of water flowing through Boulder Town’s Little Rock Creek is increasing every year, which has greatly exceeded the utilization of the waterwheels!

Later, I looked at the map carefully and found Little Rock The creek was bred from within the gravel ridge. As the most remote Boulder Town, it did not connect with any territory in the direction of the gravel ridge."

"It means that the actual territory of my Boulder Town is larger than the map. Is it bigger?"

"It's much bigger!" Ruvid corrected it.

Knight Kunas said quickly as if thinking of something.

"I went to see the edge of the gravel ridge when I visited the territory of the town. It is a undulating mountain range extending to the west. The mountain is covered with large and small gravel except for the gravel. The soil quality of the mountain is not bad, it is covered with bushes and tall trees."

"Well...It is barely good news. Gravel and trees can be used to build houses, waterwheels in Shuichetun. You can rebuild a bigger one, or build a new waterwheel on another river to meet the needs of more residents."

Odin thought.

"Let’s do it, Administrative Officer Ruvid, I will give you one hundred Gold Coins for various expenses of the Government Affairs Office, and then complete these tasks as soon as possible.

First, refurbish The town government office, when renovating the government affairs office, gives priority to hiring workers whose wages are owed by the previous administrative officer, and pays double daily wages until all the arrears are made up.

Second, how many long-term employment Residents who know how to read and count are your assistants.

Thirdly, carry out a small town census. As long as they are residents of Boulder Town territory, none of them can be overlooked.

Fourth, find a few people who are familiar with water and explore the suitable places for building waterwheels in Little Rock Creek.

Let’s do this first, I will ask you about your work progress at any time. If you find that you have If you slack off, let you pack your things and go back to Bloodhoof Castle!"

As Odin uttered a command, Ruvid put away the laughing expression on his face, stood up and gave a solemn half-length salute." Ruvid swears his allegiance to Lord Odin!"

When he was sent to Odin, he belonged to Odin Bloodhoof completely. If he was driven back to Bloodhoof Castle, he would have only one end.

But with these hundred Gold Coins, he can let go of his hands and feet to do things, and he has room to play.

"Okay, it's late, the two teachers go back to rest, there are still a lot of things to do tomorrow."

Odin ordered the Expulsion Order.
