Four months later.
All descendant disciples of the Nether Heart lineage crossed the district and came to the Nine Heads of Fury Wizard Academy. After Dadalon, Peranos, and Wu Tong held a short ceremony to serve as the dean of the academy, all the third and fourth generation disciples Students begin the real assessment that lasts fifty years.
Moth Frog City, the city where Master Netherheart randomly assigned Green to take the assessment.
Moth Frog City has a population of 70,000, and is surrounded by nine small towns and 342 villages, with a total population of 257,000. It is the earliest city developed by the Nine Heads Fury Wizard Academy, because Moth Frog is a unique creature. It is famous for being only a short distance away from the Nine Heavenly Knights of the Nine-headed Fury Wizard Academy.
Green sat at the table and read the resources and population information of Moth Frog City carefully.
Sitting in the hall were more than twenty nobles of all sizes from Moth Frog City, looking expectantly at the wizard wearing a gray-white mask with spiral patterns, full of expectations.
Xiao Ba stood on Vivian's shoulders and followed Green.
After a while, Green put down a lot of information, looked at the many nobles in the hall and said slowly: "You already know the purpose of my trip, so let me tell you about my plan. First of all, my purpose is to increase my wealth. .”
There are three ways to increase population: increasing birth rate, reducing death rate, and attracting foreign population.
With wealth, he can easily accomplish the last two, which is indeed the first thing Green wants to accomplish.
As soon as they heard about the wealth, the eyes of several nobles who were just here to deal with it suddenly became hot.
The old Marquis Gumoza showed his few withered old teeth and asked with great interest: "Is there any way Master Green can increase the wealth of this small town?"
"Call me City Lord from now on."
After Green corrected his words, he pondered for a moment, recalling some of the experiences he had discussed in detail with Amrund.
Picking up the information again, Green said: "Apart from the naturally cultivated crops such as moth frogs, green fireflies, oak trees, Yichun fruits, and black malt in the information, are there any mineral resources?"
After everyone looked at each other, Old Marquis Gumoza said: "Actually, there is a gold mine in Bengya Mountain behind the corrosive swamp to the west."
"Gah?"
"ah?"
Behind Green, Xiaoba and Vivian made surprised sounds. There is a gold mine and no one has developed it in this small town
Green frowned and said in shock: "What's going on?"
Old Gumoza sighed: "First of all, there is a kind of man-eating monster called the Crypt Ghost that lives in the gold mine. It is good at digging holes in the ore and soil. Even if a group of knights are organized to clear it out, it cannot be killed. On the contrary, The losses are huge and it is impossible to recruit miners. Secondly, there is a corrosive swamp, the air is humid, and there are many mosquitoes. People who live there can easily breed various diseases."
Green nodded, but suddenly another noble interrupted with news about mineral resources.
"A few dozen miles east of Moth Frog City, there is another iron mine and a precious blood agate mine, but they were snatched away by the knight corps organized by the nobles of Lingwei City fifteen years ago. The knight corps over there is too powerful."
The iron ore mine represents farm tools and the harvest of farmland, and the blood agate represents that the small town can issue tasks at the Nine Heads of Fury Wizard Academy and apply for wizard apprentices to solve some difficult problems.
"Gah!? Damn it, Master, we must take it back! No, not only must we take back these two mines, but we must also take back other people's mines!"
When Xiaoba heard that the mineral resources had been robbed, he was so angry that his hair exploded and he screamed.
Green thought for a moment and realized that Lingweicheng seemed to be managed by a disciple of the Nine-headed Fury Master. The assessment content stipulated that conflicts between cities could not be resolved by the wizards themselves, and many wizards only played the role of city leaders.
Later, the nobles reported some poor mining information, but it was basically of little value. Of course, these nobles must still have some private mining resources in their hands, otherwise this Moth Frog City would have long become a Moth Frog Town.
…
"Brother, what should we do?"
Vivian asked in a low voice.
After Green looked at the tax wealth he controlled, he rubbed the sad brow under the face of truth and said: "Vivian, you first go to the nearby Elode town to investigate what is going on with the bandits. If If you can recruit them, help me bring them here to serve as city guards. If it doesn't work, the leader will kill the others and send them away. If not, kill them all or... rush to Lingweicheng."
"Uh... ok."
Vivian nodded and left with the knight sent by Elode Town.
"Xiaoba, you should also go and take care of Vivian."
Green quickly took the opportunity to get rid of Xiao Bazhi, who was too expressive and management-oriented. Otherwise, Green, who was so irritable at this time, would have his head exploded. It was too tiring to manage the livelihood of these ordinary humans, because for these people who have not been fully developed The wilderness lags behind the Wizarding Academy area, and there are too many thorny problems that ordinary humans who are vulnerable and vulnerable cannot solve.
"Gah? Okay."
Xiaoba flashed his wings and flew out.
"Sheriff!"
After Green shouted, a knight with a big belly ran in from outside. He was wearing iron armor and carrying an ax on his shoulder. He was extremely strong. He knelt on the ground on one knee and panted slightly.
Green, who has lived at the bottom of Bissel City since he was a child, is well aware of some of the dark income-generating things in the city.
"Organize the city guard. I want to inspect Moth Frog City. You should follow me."
The so-called you, naturally refers to these nobles in the hall.
"yes."
The Sheriff ran out to assemble the city guards with a bang, and Green, as the city lord, led many nobles out in a hurry. For a while, it seemed that there was no progress in the plan to increase wealth.
After half an hourglass time.
Among the knight guards of more than a hundred people, Green led many nobles. As people in the small town watched, after walking around the busiest streets, he suddenly pointed in one direction: "This way."
The Sheriff did not dare to disobey the order and hurriedly led the Knight Guards to change direction.
After passing through a large muddy and dirty shantytown, Green finally found what he wanted.
Turning over and dismounting, Green said coldly: "Surround this place for me."
"yes!"
Many city guards with low training intensity surrounded the street. The Green family inspected it one by one, followed by an administrator in charge of taxation.
"Does this tavern collect taxes?"
The person in charge of taxation said solemnly: "No."
"Humph, no? Whose store is this?"
Green sneered and followed the tax collector's gaze to look at a noble behind him. The cold and cruel look from the dark wizard immediately made the noble tremble, and he didn't know what to say.
In this way, after Green circled this street, he returned to the city lord's palace again.
A large amount of bribes appeared on Green's desk the next day, and there were even some "shares" in dark industries.
After Green sneered, he said to the person behind him: "Give these money to the accountant and tell them to hoard a batch of food. Prepare to organize the homeless and unemployed people and poor people in the city to pay wages and food to mine stone." .”
Green's purpose is naturally to build roads and change traffic.
Only when resources are fully utilized and explored can resources be transformed into wealth.
This is also the reason why there must be an airboat port in the fertile area of Central Saint Tower. This represents the convenience of resource and information exchange and the full utilization of resources.
But obviously, this bribe alone and the remaining tax revenue in the accounting room are far from enough funds for Green's second step plan.
Thinking like this, Green flew alone towards the Bengya Mountain gold mine that was difficult to develop. (To be continued.)
