Little Lucas was an ambitious young man.

He has many ideas, or rather many dreams.

Everyone's dream is limited by his birth and age, so no matter how much he has ambitions, he cannot escape from this shackle.This is also a matter of course.

But the "proper development" means buying slaves, reclaiming more land, and growing food to ensure that the people will not starve to death.

He doesn't know more.

This is the limitation.

And what about Leonard?

What he highlighted was his talent for food. In other respects, Leonard went to school well and completed his studies.Looking back now, Leonard felt that the textbooks in school were all about dragon slaying.

First of all, geography, terrain, transportation, climate, cities, labor... Geography will teach you how to develop cities, and teach you how to develop agriculture, industry and tertiary industries in cities.Although Leonard forgot a lot of the content after the exam, he remembered a little bit of it when he became the lord.Some of his words often refreshed Cai Lun and Shen.

Then there is politics and history, and politics and history are not separated.Apart from other things, just the most basic concept, the textbook's definition of the country is very fraudulent, saying that the country is the product of irreconcilable class contradictions, and if it goes deeper, it is simply teaching you to rebel.

In the end, science is directly the basis for lighting up the technology tree.

Leonard sometimes thought humorously that he felt that the most suitable place for college students to find employment was to travel to be the lord of a small territory.No matter which aspect he found that he knew a little bit and understood a little bit, so that he could employ people reasonably.

He can look at everything with a vision that is completely beyond this era, and his actual knowledge reserve is quite large.

How can the nobles here compare with him?

After little Lucas was caught by Lu Bu, his blood was poured with cold water.

He realized something at that time, he thought, what his father said was right, fighting a war is not that simple, and many things are not that simple.

The opponent took advantage of the terrain to annihilate him in one fell swoop... No, even without the terrain, the opponent could annihilate him in one fell swoop.He is still a little hard on himself and his soldiers now.

Why is there such a big gap between people?

Little Lucas thought as he sat in his tent.

Because of his special status, he was also given preferential treatment.

He also wants to have these elite soldiers, he is so envious.

Because I have fought with Lu Bu, I know how strong they are.The soldiers of Sunlun City are definitely not opponents. Instead of dying, it is better to surrender as soon as possible to negotiate a peace.Little Lucas made such a judgment.

From this point of view, there is nothing wrong with what he thinks.

Then he had a very delicious meal.

In fact, to be honest, the food the soldiers gave him was not good.

Dinner was ham and bread.

The meat of the ham is firm and full. It is smoked and roasted with fruit wood. The garlic is rich and fragrant, and it tastes delicious.There is a lot of fat inside, but it is just right to eat with bread. The smell of meat and oil spreads into the mouth, making little Lucas feel ecstatic.

This is also delicious!Little Lucas was startled after taking a bite.

The next morning, he had chicken wraps.Crispy chicken, fresh vegetables, delicious tomato sauce, slightly spicy taste, eat a big bite, very satisfying.

Lunch is a large bowl of meat porridge, with oil flowers floating on it and some colorful side dishes. The meat inside is soft and delicious, and the meat porridge has a strong aroma, which fills the appetite.The fragrant gravy and soft potatoes are really delicious.

Dinner is sweet and sour bread with blueberry jam.

For the current standard of food in Little Thorn Castle, these foods are very ordinary, but little Lucas has no experience, these meals are already very delicious for him.

During the next period of captivity, little Lucas looked forward to eating early every day, completely forgetting other thoughts.

He had originally thought about negotiating peace and surrendering, but now that he was corrupted by delicious food, he was even more disfigured.

After learning that his father had redeemed him, little Lucas' first reaction was a little regretful.

The second reaction is that after the war is over, I can go to Wanzhong Town!

So he confidently told his father what he thought. He thought that his father respected him a lot, so he would consider his suggestion—from this point of view, he really thought too simple.

What he didn't expect was that his father directly rejected his words.

Moreover, his father severely criticized him and said some very exaggerated words, which made him realize for the first time that his father actually viewed him that way.

Unconventional, different from other nobles, if you embarrass him, can't you learn from normal people?Why do you keep thinking about those weird things.

Little Lucas was imprisoned, thinking about his father and his own words in his mind, feeling very depressed.

Even in captivity, of course they are eating the best food.But the food is still incomparable to the food when they were captured.He missed the food at Littlethorn, missed his men, worried about the future of Sunring, and worried about his father's treatment of him.

One day, a servant came in in a panic: "Master, it's not good, master! Soldiers from Little Thorn Castle have come in! Your lord Earl tells you to go there quickly!"

Little Lucas was a little shocked. He knew that Sunlun Fort was not his opponent, but he didn't expect that it would fall so soon.

He hurried to the main hall under the leadership of his servants, at this time his father looked anxious.

There is no need to ask about the situation at all, because as soon as you look up, you can see the soldiers of Little Thorn Castle standing on the city wall, and the huge siege equipment that looks like a ghost.

"Luke," Earl Lucas said anxiously, "do you get along well with Viscount Green of Little Thorn Castle?" Luke is the nickname of little Lucas.

"Er... Actually, we didn't get along much." Little Lucas said, "He just told you that he wanted to redeem me, and then you know what happened."

"How could this be?" Earl Lucas fidgeted: "I asked you to negotiate with Viscount Green now, saying that we agree to surrender, can we reduce our losses?"

Only then did little Lucas react.

It turned out that his father had such a plan, and the enemy had already appeared in front of him, so he started counting on him?

Although he knew it was wrong, little Lucas couldn't help gloating.

Unexpectedly, one day I would have to count on my enemies to improve my status in my father's mind.

"I'm afraid we still have to pay a lot of price." The gloating thought was fleeting, and Lucas said honestly: "After all, compared to then, they have almost captured Sunlun Fort. We lost a lot of soldiers, and we have to pay the price."

Earl Lucas coughed: "Actually, no..."

Little Lucas: "What?"

Count Lucas said, "I mean, they didn't lose many soldiers."

Little Lucas: "Ah, but they attacked the city."

Earl Lucas: "...Yes, even though they captured the castle, they still didn't lose a few soldiers."

Little Lucas: "..."

This was beyond his expectation.

This is too embarrassing, is the loss of the siege party negligible?

This, how to negotiate...

Little Lucas was on the point of crying.

……

Little Lucas bit the bullet and went out to negotiate. He saw Leonard again, which can also be described by the word right and wrong.

"Viscount Green," said little Lucas.

"Looks like you lied to me," Leonard said.

"I'm sorry, I..." Little Lucas was ashamed and speechless.

"Actually, you can make an excuse. You can say that your father didn't agree with you coming over." Leonard said, "Or find some other excuse."

"I didn't consider these issues when I promised you, so this is my problem in the end." Lucas Jr. continued: "I can't argue."

Leonard smiled: "You are very knowledgeable. Well, did your father send you to surrender?"

"Yes." Little Lucas said honestly.

"But why should I agree?" Leonard said, "I have entered Sunlun Fort now. If I want, I can easily take down the entire Sunlun Fort. Isn't it too late to surrender at this time?"

"Then it depends on whether you are kind." Little Lucas said: "Whether you are willing to retain the last bit of poor self-esteem of a nobleman." He took a deep breath and said: "I am willing to serve you, Lord Viscount .”

……

In the end, Leonard agreed to Earl Lucas' surrender, and Sunlun City was officially included in his territory.

Leonard called the clerk. Before that, he voluntarily surrendered and flattered himself, and Leonard promised to put him in a suitable position.

"The war is over, and I'm here to fulfill my promise." Leonard said to the officer, "Earl Lucas will continue to live in Sunlun City, so you can follow him."

The affairs officer was dumbfounded: "Leader, Lord Lord..."

Many people know that he said bad things to Earl Lucas, if he stays with Earl Lucas, what kind of bad result will be waiting for him, of course he understands.

"I think this is the most suitable position for you." Leonard said lightly.

Afterwards, Leonard sent the political officer of Sunlun City to Mithril Town and made him the mayor of Mithril Town.

The political officer was very surprised by this: "Master Viscount, didn't you say that I rejected your order and you won't let me be a political officer?"

"Yeah, so you're not a political officer now, you're the mayor," Leonard said.

Leonard is still very optimistic about political officials who care about their own people.

Send him to Cai Lun's side, let Cai Lun train him, and then let him be alone.

"I, I..." The political officer didn't expect his behavior to actually get him promoted.

"Don't worry, you are doing the right thing." Leonard said, "As a lord, the right thing I should do is to put the right people in the right place. You can choose some people to take to the secret Silver Town and grant them corresponding positions."

The political officer showed a very touched expression.

"Thank you Lord Lord!"

After the administrative officer left, Leonard said to Wei Zhongxian: "It's really easy to subdue the people of this era."

"Well." Wei Zhongxian said, "Everyone cares about something. Everyone has a price tag that can be recovered and bought. It's either money or other things."

Leonard nodded.He gradually realized this.

"What about you?" Leonard asked.

"Although I want to say that I obey your orders unconditionally, I don't think that's what you want to hear." Wei Zhongxian said.

"Haha, um." Leonard said, "Is it power?" He guessed.

"Power, glory and wealth, these are what I like." Wei Zhongxian said, "I entered the palace by myself at the beginning, because of these."

"Oh." Leonard nodded.

He felt that Wei Zhongxian was really ruthless in purging himself at that time.

"Then you have to help me develop my territory well. When I become rich, you will become rich." Leonard said with a smile.

Wei Zhongxian also laughed.

Lord Lord is really different from others.

Other rulers should be very concerned when they heard Wei Zhongxian's words, but the lord lord said such words calmly.

What Wei Zhongxian didn't say was that he was indeed pursuing these things back then, but in the end, he found that what he wanted most was other respects.

So for now, enough is enough.

……

With a complete victory, there will naturally be a celebration banquet.

The ice wine brewed before is ready to drink, so it is the main drink of the celebration banquet.

Ice wine is a wine brewed from frozen grapes picked at low temperature. Ice wine does not need to add any sugar source during the brewing process. It is very sweet and delicious, and it also emits the fragrance of honey and fruit. Drink it very well, and it looks very good. The transparent golden yellow liquid exudes an attractive luster in the cup, and it is hard to stop watching it.

There is a large plate of beef with potatoes in the middle. The aroma of the beef is very strong, the beef itself is stewed until soft, and the golden potatoes dipped in the beef soup looks very delicious.This dish is very filling, delicious and satisfying when served with bread.

Next to it was fried steak.Fresh and tender steak, delicious sauce, the taste is relatively simple, but it can turn into a storm of deliciousness and sweep all taste buds.When you chew, the plump meat juice overflows, this feeling is simply unbeatable.

Next to it is Grifola frondosa roasted pork ribs.Grifola frondosa is also Maitake mushroom, which is both a medicinal material and an ingredient.The smell is fragrant, the meat is tender, and it is an anticancer drug, so it is delicious.Grifola frondosa roasted pork ribs is naturally a delicacy.

Leonard gave wine to the soldiers, said some encouraging words, and finally toasted together.

"As usual, the last glass should be for Little Thorn Castle, but I want everyone to respect myself with this glass."

Leonard raised his glass and said loudly:

"Respect ourselves, respect us who have won a big victory!

Everyone, cheers! "

"cheers!"

The next day, Leonard announced the distribution of farmland.
