Empires Start with Lords

For craftsmen, Ross's current needs are mainly in infrastructure materials.

After all, the materials in the system store are too expensive, and what Ross can get for free is only wood and some stones.

After all, he is backed by forests and mountains, both of which Ross has no shortage of.

At present, there are more than 300 craftsmen in the three cities of Ross, but there are only dozens of intermediate craftsmen.

Ross was a little curious about what a senior craftsman could do, and then clicked on the career introduction of the senior craftsman.

Advanced Craftsman: It can be used to forge materials such as fine iron, which is used to improve the quality of the weapons of the entire team.

Ross was moved.

Since you already have gunpowder, why can't you make more guns?

Ross thought for a while, and remembered that the guns of this world have developed to the point of flintlock guns.

Before the flintlock gun, the earl and the marquis could only use the flintlock gun.

Very few dukes have access to reed guns, which are more accurate and powerful than firearms.

According to legend, it was the most powerful shooting regiment in the palace who defeated the army of thousands of senior orcs. You must know that tens of thousands of senior orcs are better than 100,000 human soldiers.

Ross has not unlocked the senior craftsman yet. When the time is right, Ross must buy a hundred senior craftsmen to make guns and bullets for him.

Especially a gun with good aim and great power like a spring revolver.

The last Emperor Ross was a traveler. When he knew that the technology in this world was still two hundred years after the Roman period, he felt a burst of joy.

Fortunately, it was not the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. You must know that there were already invincible weapons such as artillery and tanks in that period.

No matter how much you develop at the beginning, it is impossible to resist the attack of ten tanks from others!

At this moment, Babur ran over and said to Ross with a smile: "Lord Lord, Count Mander, fifty kilometers to the west, asks to see you!"

Um?

Ross was stunned for a while, then turned to look at Babur.

It has been more than two months since he opened the territory, and this is the first time that a noble has come to visit him.

"Let him come."

As soon as he finished speaking, Babur walked over a man who was 1.85 meters tall in extravagant clothes and luxurious decorations.

The man is all made of rare oriental silk.

You must know that the transportation of oriental silk requires a huge amount of money and many orc crises.

Generally, they are only worn by the royal family and nobles, and ordinary nobles have no chance to wear them.

Moreover, Ross also saw that he was wearing a bag of silk Qinglong satin suit behind him.

Ross gave him a smile: "What's the matter with Earl Mander coming to me?"

Mander smiled, and just ordered the men behind him to hand Ross the package of silk that was extremely luxurious.

"This dress is from the powerful Chinese Empire in the east. It is said that the Qinglong is a mythical beast with thousands of years of history in China." Mander showed Ross a meaningful smile, and then said: "I heard that Earl Ross defeated the orc tribe before, and Marquis Raisel, what a hero, I, Mander, are willing to offer the blue dragon!"

Ross didn't reject this kind of gift from local tyrants. After all, this dress can be sold for a terrifying price of 10,000 gold coins in Western countries.

After receiving the gift, Ross asked, "Is there anything else?"

Mander: Mom sells P, who told me that this guy is an upright nobleman, he doesn't look like him at all!

Mander was a little confused, and Ross was going to drive him away after receiving the gift?

Ross touched his nose. He knew that Mander must have come all the way to ask him for help. It couldn't have come to please him with a bag of clothes, right?

Mander wiped his sweat quickly, didn't dare to say more, and went straight to the subject: "I heard that Lord Ross is building an unprecedented city, could it be this Gran Forest?"

Ross nodded. After the city opened up to foreign trade, it was indeed the first one in history.

Mander said, "I don't know how Earl Ross plans to plan the city. If I can, I can help."

Ross took a look and felt that this guy didn't look like a spy from the palace. Even if it was, Ross had nothing to hide. After all, he had already spread the information out, and the purpose was to attract investment.

Ross unhurriedly told him his plan and grand cause step by step, and Mander, who had not received an education in the 21st century, was taken aback for a moment.

I couldn't come back to my senses for a long time.

"Wonderful!"

After a while, Mander felt that Ross's IQ was too high, and to be against such a person, the disadvantages far outweighed the advantages!

"However, although the traffic here is indeed very good, how can you guarantee that those nobles will not attack you, after all, you have touched their core interests.

That is the land!

At that time, this group of nobles will definitely unite against you, and even the people in the palace will not let you go. "

Mander said with a bit of regret, after all, if this idea can be successfully implemented, it will definitely make a lot of money.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to accomplish this epic creation with Ross's title.

Ross glanced at Mander's frustrated face~www.readwn.com~ smiled and said, "Count Mander, have you ever heard the saying that truth will only exist within the firing range of a cannon?"

Looking at Rose's smiling face, Mander felt a little bit of fear, and this fear came from Rose's words.

What is a cannon...

Although he wasn't very clear, he automatically brought in the fire gun in the midst of the commotion.

The truth only exists within the firing range of the gun, what a sentence!

I didn't expect Ross to see the war in this world so clearly.

It's a pity that Mander, who is an earl, doesn't even know how a firearm feels, and he doesn't believe that Ross owns and uses a firearm.

"Then what do you mean, you want to challenge the nobles in the western part of the Aklan Kingdom?"

Ross smiled and didn't say anything. The next second, Babur came in and said, "Lord Lord, the fire squadron has finished training, please review it!"

What? It turned out to be the Fire Squadron?

You must know that there are at least 60 people in a squadron. How arrogant is the fire squadron? !

Mander was thinking incredulously, looking at Ross with suspicion.

Rose walked out of the fortress with a smile and came to a large open space. There were actually sixty soldiers standing here, holding brand-new firearms in their hands!

"It turned out to be a fire gun..."

Mander muttered to himself and said in disbelief.

Seven years ago, from the beginning of the birth of the fire gun, the western countries once blocked this technology, and also declared that the city was a demon weapon made by the Huaxia Empire.

More than a dozen kingdoms collectively sent troops to subjugate Huaxia, euphemistically called the fruit of the subjugation of the devil, but in fact they wanted to monopolize the technology of firearms and gunpowder.

In the entire continent, only the Huaxia Empire was the first to master these technologies, and they used them the most!
