Throne of the North

What Ryan wants is very simple, that is, in the future, the goods of the frozen land and Lingdu County will have the qualifications to compete fairly in Yinchuan County.

For this condition, the nobles of Yinchuan County felt a little puzzled. Some of them did not understand the meaning of it. What benefits could Ryan get from it?

But thinking of the gold coins in comparison, the nobles could not find a reason to refuse.

This war reparations cannot be negotiated. In addition to the part of Ryan that appeared in front of them, the remaining 90% is still a huge pressure for them, and it may be difficult to ease in the next ten or even twenty years.

But they must give it, otherwise it will be a new round of war.

Count Weiss is not the opponent of the nobles, let alone the nobles of Yinchuan County now?

After thinking for a long time, Viscount Hogg could not figure out the purpose of Ryan's condition, and finally he agreed.

There is no reason to refuse, even if you think it is wrong, you still have no choice.

Otherwise, it is the golden coins that are given to Ryan.

Compared with invisible things, they prefer to hold the gold coins in their hands.

Ryan was not surprised. Free trade is a double-edged sword. Of course, for the current situation, there is no double-edged situation.

Perhaps, the description of Yinchuan County in the future will only have a beginning.

'At first, no one cared about this transaction...'

After the contract was signed, Ryan sent someone to send its copy to the hands of several other nobles. Here, the war in the North Wind Province was completely declared over.

He was finally able to return to the frozen land territory and return to his own territory.

"People's joys and sorrows are not the same."

Riding on the warhorse on the way home, Ryan thought of the nobles in Yinchuan County who were not willing to keep him, and couldn't help but smile.

I think these nobles will not hold any banquets for a long time in the future.

On the contrary, another part of the nobles will probably squander a lot of money in the next few years.

For Ryan, this is an opportunity.

When he can no longer use war as a source of wealth, he will inevitably focus on the economy of the territory.

Goods from another world should be very popular among the nobles in the North Wind Province, right?

After walking from Yinchuan County to Leiyun County, Ryan finally returned to Lingdu County. He brought many contracts and countless wealth. The light of gold coins shone in the eyes of the nobles of Lingdu County, so that the voices that were originally intended to question the heavy losses of the army were gone.

"Baron Ryan, have a good journey."

Under the city of Lingdu, Ryan turned around and saw smiling faces.

Turning around, he led his own hundreds of soldiers towards the north.

...

"We still have to continue to repair this road."

The road that was built with orc slaves at the beginning was no longer the same after only a year.

"You said that when more people walk, the road will appear."

Brand next to him said rarely, which made Ryan couldn't help laughing.

"Indeed, many people will walk on this road in the future."

Tundra Territory

It was already spring plowing outside, but the frozen land was still covered with snow. The castle on the Rhinoceros Mountain was flashing lights as if to welcome Ryan's return. There were shadowy figures on the distant peaks. The snow was being cleared, turning into cold water drops flowing at the foot of the mountain, and finally washing the surface of the frozen river smooth and clean.

The joys and sorrows of the nobles were not the same. When the nobles of Yinchuan County and Leiyun County were trying to raise money, Ryan had already squandered the wealth he earned in the castle.

After adulthood, life at night is always rich. Today, Master Ryan once again celebrated with the people.

Celebrate the success of the war, celebrate Ryan's return to his loyal land, and celebrate the appearance of fine wine on the cold frozen land.

For three consecutive days, Ryan finally climbed up from the Viscountess.

Walk out of the door and look at the butler Beard standing respectfully.

"The dragon heart my father sent me is really powerful."

With a sigh, Ryan came to the top of Rhino Horn Mountain. Standing here, he could see that the terraces had become incompatible with the surrounding snow with the help of charcoal ashes.

"Although we have managed to get a lot of food, the arable land in the territory still needs to be developed. We must be self-sufficient."

"Follow your wishes."

Bird replied respectfully behind him.

"Have the areas for the militia arrow towers and hunters been determined?"

"It has been determined. Miss Etria has designated three hunting grounds in the northern foothills, which will rotate between spring and autumn and summer and winter to ensure that the prey resources will not be exhausted. Miss Etria also plans to introduce horned deer to live in the territory to ensure their reproduction."

"Master Brock personally led the militia to the northern peaks and personally selected two peaks. He will lead the craftsmen to build two watchtowers on the peaks, each of which can station thirty to fifty soldiers."

Bird pointed to two high places within the field of vision. According to Brock, as long as the watchtowers are built in those two places, any movement entering the frozen land from the east, west and north will be captured.

The plan for the watchtower was decided by Ryan a long time ago.

The terrain of the frozen land is high and low. After all, it is a barrier to keep the winter wind and snow in the south of the empire.

The complex terrain means that the naked eye cannot see everything at a glance, so the existence of watchtowers is very necessary. They will be the eyes of the tundra territory and can also train scouts.

The soldiers will prevent all monsters that break into the tundra territory, and then arrange for soldiers to hunt and kill them in the ruling territory.

To a certain extent, this is to ensure the stability of the permafrost territory and to protect and supervise the farmers who cultivate the terraced fields.

They are also Ryan's tentacles. When there is nothing important in the south, these tentacles can help Ryan reach deep into the north.

His territory will also become huge because of the watchtowers.

"According to Master Brock, as long as the watchtower is successfully constructed, peak second-level monsters can be defended and third-level monsters can also be deterred."

"According to the sketch you gave originally, Master Brock is trying to forge a giant crossbow. If successful, it will ensure that the watchtower will have the power to fight against Warcraft alone."

After hearing this, Ryan finally couldn't help it, with a strange expression.

"Can he really succeed?"

He himself knew how rough the sketch of the bed crossbow he drew later was.

"I heard that I found a way after going to the south."

Beard said truthfully, which finally made Ryan feel relieved. He knew that he was not qualified to take this credit.

"But why does he have so much time?"

Of course, Ryan will not forget that he and the Chamber of Commerce still have unfinished transactions. During the war, the nobles in the entire Lingdu County were also very busy, busy forging iron ore into weapons. The most important of these was of course the forging by Bullock himself. 'Snow Dragon's Song' series of knight long swords.

In fact, it was precisely for this reason that the nobles of Lingdu County did not hold back Ryan who was far away on the battlefield during the war and handed all their rights to him.
