The Extraordinary Earl

It was a very, very sunny day. The sun was charming and the sky was cloudless.

Pompeii and his son crossed the deep forest road and returned to Pompeii.

When he saw the towering walls of Pompeii in the distance, he turned his head to look at the large farmland around him, and the village vaguely visible in the middle of the farmland.

When he heard the sound of chickens and dogs barking.

Luther felt extremely happy.

I'm back again, my Pompeii.

If the family is a golden nest and silver nest, who would go out to venture? Everything Luther did was for the good of Pompeii.

Only when the family is settled and comfortable can he enjoy life leisurely.

Hey, Pompeii.

However, Pompeii is now just a shell, and there are not many residents inside, so when Luther stepped into the city wall, what he saw was an empty street, like a ghost town in his previous life.

After entering the city, Pompeii and his son separated. Old Sol was eager to go to the castle to settle down, and then went into the forest, chose a remote place, and prepared to practice in seclusion.

Luther went to the City Hall.

The City Hall was the same as before, with officials coming in and out, and basically no people, as deserted as a ghost. Luther greeted many officials along the way before arriving at the mayor's office on the second floor.

"Welcome our great Pompeii Knight to return triumphantly." Lelouch was busy handling official business at the table. When he heard footsteps, he looked up and saw that it was Luther. He quickly stood up and greeted him, gave Luther a big hug, and said exaggeratedly.

Knight Captain Mr. Stone had already sent out the family knights and guards to carry supplies, and the news naturally reached Lelouch's ears.

Although it was expected that the victory would be achieved by hiring mercenaries to eliminate the thieves, the news was still exciting.

Lelouch was very happy.

Because he didn't have to worry about the ghost town next.

"Don't be happy too early, some things depend on hard work for 50%, but another 50% depends on other forces." Luther also happily hugged Lelouch, then let go of Lelouch, gently patted the senior on the shoulder, and said meaningfully.

"I understand that legends are not created in a day. They need to be passed down for a long time before heroes can become legends. Since we have wiped out the Autumn Wind Thieves, Pompeii's reputation must rise, so publicity is inevitable, but how do you plan to promote it?" Lelouch smiled and nodded, obviously understanding this truth. Luther smiled and pulled out a chair and sat down properly, then said: "Mr. Mayor, use the network of relationships you have left behind to recruit a large number of bards, and do a lot of publicity work on the fact that Pompeii and the Sabertooth Tiger Mercenary Group wiped out the Autumn Wind Thieves Group to prove the military strength of Pompeii. By the way, the housing prices in Pompeii are low, and we are in urgent need of a large number of craftsmen, practitioners, and all kinds of residents. No matter who you are, as long as you have a skill, you can find a job in Pompeii."

"As for the propaganda of our Pompeii's military strength, you can promote that our lord, this generation of Pompeii Knight, Thor, Pompeii is a genuine senior knight. In our territory, there is a mysterious wizard sitting in, and there are no less than 30 family knights. The defense of the territory is very strong."

"False propaganda?" Lelouch narrowed his eyes, but he did not reject it.

Advertisements are more or less watery.

Now the fact that Old Sol is a high-level knight has not been made public, and the Sabretooth Mercenary Group will not talk about it casually, so Lelouch thought it was all water.

But in fact, there is still some substance in these propaganda. Let’s not talk about Old Sol’s high-level knight. Luther is currently training a wizard lady, and a pair.

As for the guard knights, Luther also has plans to expand, but it has not yet been carried out.

But there is no need to tell Lelouch this at this time. Mr. Mayor, just follow the order and develop the city.

"Propaganda, how can there be no water." So Luther said casually.

"Okay, I will recruit a group of bards and let them package these things and promote them."

Lelouch readily agreed.

This matter can come to an end. After all, it is not Luther's job next, but Lelouch, the mayor of Pompeii.

Luther just needs to sit on his throne and wait for the results.

So Luther talked to Lelouch about another thing. Luther said, "By the way, I have reached an agreement with the Sabretooth Tiger Mercenary Group. If the Sabretooth Tiger Mercenary Group makes any move in the Endless Forest in the south, an outpost will be established near our territory. I think this is a good idea. After all, the number of adventurers and mercenaries who enter the Endless Forest every year is countless. But before, although Pompeii was located on the edge of the Endless Forest, it did not have the conditions. But now it has the conditions. I think we should add some facilities to deal with adventurers in the city, such as hotels and taverns, and increase the output of weapons. However, these are all Pompeii's business. What you have to do is to do some publicity by the way to attract those adventurers." This is similar to Luther's previous publicity, but it is for different groups of people. The former is ordinary residents, and the latter is adventurers mainly civilian knights. The former is of course the foundation, but the latter is also a big piece of cake, and Luther thinks it should not be given up. "Okay, I'll plan it." Lelouch said.

Luther told Lelouch all the thoughts he had accumulated during these days in one breath, and he felt much more relaxed. So Luther crossed his legs, leaned on the back of the chair, and changed into a very comfortable position.

He asked casually: "By the way, this year's autumn harvest should start soon. How are the people feeling? Are you happy?"

"I'm very happy." A cheerful smile appeared on Lelouch's face. He glanced at Luther with admiration before saying, "Because of the manure fertilization, the land's yield has increased. And because of the use of oxen and plows, As a result, the leaders have generally opened up more than twice the amount of land this year. The income of farmers this year is very considerable, and Pompeii’s tax revenue will also be very considerable.”

To this day, Lelouch still admires Luther. It is like a golden touch. Two small ideas have brought about earth-shaking changes in the entire agriculture.

If these two ideas were extended to the entire Kingdom of Prussia, it would bring many benefits. But neither Lelouch nor Luther were willing to promote this agricultural production technology.

Because I can, I add value.

If everyone knows how to do it, then the value will be gone.

Of course, you can't hide it for long, and getting rich can't be covered by paper. But he could hide it for as long as he could. In short, let Pompeii become rich first.
