Starting Life as a Baron

Chapter 61: Three weeks later, the current situation of the Rose Town

weeks later, the current situation of the Rose Town

"My Lord, during this time, we already have fifty sea cavalry, fifty wolf cavalry, and one thousand cavalries!"

"In addition, we have purchased a large number of high-quality weapons and armor from the Roland Chamber of Commerce."

"There is also a large amount of healing and detoxification medicine."

"A week ago, we also built eight defensive watchtowers, six by the sea, and two on either side of the business road."

"Also, because of the Roland Chamber of Commerce, we were fortunate enough to obtain a batch of magic scrolls."

Marco was currently reporting the situation in Rose Town for the past three weeks.

Yes, a full three weeks had passed since Alan had upgraded the Dragon Nest last time.

Alan's cavalry had been trained, and the number of sea cavalrymen had increased to fifty people.

Due to the expansion of the sea cavalry, Alan's cavalry regiment should have been short of thirty people.

After all, his Warrior Training Accelerator Card could only train a thousand warriors. Alan asked the Earl for thirty warriors to make up for the thousand-member team as a last resort.

It was unimaginable that a small country Baron could train a thousand-man cavalry regiment, a force that even the Earl had to pay attention to.

After all, a thousand-man cavalry was far more important than a thousand-man infantry on the battlefield.

"In addition, thanks to Mr. Nick's help, some of the ten knights that you have trained have already broken through to the second-level knight."

Marco felt a little emotional as he reported.

If it had been three months ago, he could not have imagined that the impoverished town would have looked like it was today.

Not to mention the sea cavalry and the Wolf Cavalry, even the thousand-man cavalry was enough to allow Alan to sweep through all the forces of the entire Thorn Flower Territory except for the Earl.

"Mm, that's right, Marco. You have worked hard these days. Nick is almost about to be promoted to an intermediate-level potion master. When that time comes, I will fully support you to become a sixth-level knight."

Alan patted Marco on the shoulder and said.

"Thank you, My Lord!"

Marco's face revealed a trace of joy. As a knight, he naturally wanted to take a step further.

He had good talent, and being able to cultivate the fifth-level knight was its proof.

As a commoner knight, he didn't have the extra money to buy expensive potions. He could only rely on his own cultivation to reach the fifth level.

Originally, he had already extinguished the idea of going a step further, but Nick's appearance and Alan's words gave him hope.

"Well, Sparrow, tell me about the factories."

Alan waved for Marco to leave and asked Sparrow to report on Rose Town's financial situation.

"My Lord, our factories have been expanded tenfold, but that is not enough. Our goods are extremely popular outside."

"Now it's not just the Thorn Flower territory, the name of our Rose Town has reached even the Lane Principality because we have the strongest wine, the sweetest maltose, and the most popular perfume for women."

"I have rented a large area on the outskirts of Thorn Flower territory to build our factories, which costs thirty thousand gold coins a year in rent. The cost of recruiting workers is about a thousand gold coins a year and the raw materials will take about twenty thousand gold coins a year."

"But that's not the point. The point is that we have already made a net profit of fifty thousand gold coins in just three weeks, My Lord. This is the income after sharing it with the Roland Chamber of Commerce. It's hard to imagine how much wealth we will have after we get bigger."

Sparrow said excitedly. At the same time, he also mentioned the recent situation in the town.

Everything was developing in a good direction. The current Rose Town had far surpassed the territories of some viscounts.

"Yes, not bad. It seems that my efforts have not been in vain."

Alan was sitting comfortably on the sofa, looking a little lazy.

He hadn't used the knight sword since his last trip to the Blue Moon Principality three weeks ago.

He had lived a comfortable life for the past three weeks and had even completed several side tasks.

Right now, his experience bar was 49,000/50000. He only needed one thousand experience points to level up.

However, these thousand experience points caused Alan to become helpless.

After all, his new task was like this.

"Task: Glory of the Viscount!"

"Task content: Rose Town has been developed to the extreme. Now you are only limited by land and population. Please be promoted to Viscount or a higher title as soon as possible."

"Mission reward: Twenty thousand experience points, Beginner magic talent!"

Alan could only watch this task dryly. After all, it had only been three months since he became a Baron. If he wanted to upgrade his rank quickly, he needed battle merit.

Fortunately, a war was about to begin.

Alan glanced at the countdown timer of the War task: Two weeks and five days.

As soon as the war began, Alan could take this opportunity to complete the task.

Alan had been greedy for the Beginner magic talent for a long time.
