Fritz took a deep breath: "The most expensive a cow is no more than 2 gold, and it can cultivate two or three acres of land every day. The price of your tractor is a bit exaggerated? This kind of seeder or harvester sounds like a good deal.

of."

Renee calculated for Fritz: "Father, you can't calculate like this. You can use a cow for less than ten years at most and it will be gone."

This tractor and planter can be used for 20 years, and the harvester can also be used for 15 years.

Moreover, cows need to eat grass and need people to serve them, but machines do not!

These agricultural machines are currently in limited production and limited supply. Even if I have a knighthood, I still have to queue up to buy them!"

Fritz said: "The price is not cheap."

Renee spread her hands: "There's nothing you can do, father.

What we new aristocrats lack most is people.

Nowadays, these agricultural machinery are only supplied to the families of nobles and soldiers."

Renee excitedly described her plan to her father:

"I plan to buy 30 tractors, 30 seeders, 20 harvesters, and 1,000 hand-held sprayers.

Then buy 5,000 gold of the newly launched ‘Super Crop’ seeds from the Wizarding Academy.

Buy 20,000 gold coins of barley and wheat,

Recruit 10,000 refugees,

Form a knighthood of 200 people..."

…

Compared to Rene Parra, who started Tianhu, his friend Dipu Belloso was very distressed.

During the day, when Dipu returned to Shuhe Village, he was regarded as the pride and legend of the village and enjoyed the pleasure of being "sought after by thousands of people".

From a homeless waif to an eighteen-year-old young baron, how can it not be a legend?

Even though Dipper wasn't interested in the villagers who had even hunted him down for the Poole family's bounty, for the sake of Aunt Mona, he still begged for money and treated the villagers to a meal.

Aunt Mona looks much better than before. It seems that Yaxia is indeed much stronger than Ige.

Dipu invited Aunt Mona to work in his castle, which was much better than working as a packer in a cement factory.

Aunt Mona hesitated and agreed.

As for the other villagers who came over, whether they were offering gifts for their daughters or trying to get close to each other, Dipu rejected them all.

After arriving at "Gulfstream Town", the core of his future fiefdom, and just as he was preparing to show off his talents, Dipper discovered an extremely embarrassing thing.

Apart from the bounty of more than a thousand gold coins from this war, I have almost nothing.

Oh, and there are horses with the blood of Warcraft under my crotch, the first prize in the competition to select officers for the warrior legion, as well as a suit of armor, a long knife, and a pair of bows and arrows.

This amount of money seems to be a lot, enough for an ordinary family to have enough food and clothing for a lifetime.

But if it is spent on territory construction, it will really be a drop in the bucket.

A mount with the blood of Warcraft is worth tens of thousands of gold coins. If you are lucky, it is not impossible to sell it for more than 20,000 gold coins.

But Dipper regards "Rust" (this horse) as a family member. How can he be willing to sell it even if his good friend Renee doesn't let him ride it?

This year, all of Asia is tax-free, and Dipu neither dares nor wants to collect taxes from the people.

How could a heroic man, poor Dipu, even afford a penny to support a knighthood to guarantee his rule...

He has considered selling his sex appeal to seduce the rich widows and wealthy business ladies in the town.

He thought of some of the friends he met during his wanderings, and wondered if he could recruit them here. After all, he really couldn't afford much salary.

Alas, compared to Tianhu's good friend Renee at the beginning, Dipu is short of money, lack of people, and lacks everything.

…

Viscount John Tucker, who lived in Chang'an City (formerly Ignabrain), also returned to his home quietly.

No fanfare, no boasting.

Just like his temperament, he is pragmatic and low-key.

At most, I invite my family, close relatives and friends to have a small banquet.

"I'm sorry, son, I can't give you more help." John's father apologized for not being able to provide financial or personnel help to his son.

"It's okay, father, you have given me the greatest help by educating me since I was a child." John said while flipping through a thick "Asia Penal Code".

"Your uncle Blanc's son Ilir, your uncle Juarez's son..." John's private tutor father listed several descendants of his colleagues. "They are all quite knowledgeable and may be able to help you."

"Well, I have already sent an invitation to them." John nodded and said.

"John, you are always so decisive!" John's father admired, "How are you going to spend the funds? Territory development and the establishment of a knighthood are not small expenses."

John put down the book and said: "I have two ideas at the moment. One is that His Majesty recently intends to open an 'Asshai National Bank'. I am going to take out a loan. I think I can still pay the interest;

On the other hand, if that doesn't work out, I can marry the daughter of a wealthy businessman.

There are still some wealthy merchants left in Ige and Andriouya. These people have lost the support of the original nobles and are in need of strong support.

With the title of Viscount, I should be able to receive a huge dowry of at least 100,000 gold coins.

It’s just that I haven’t decided on the candidate yet and made up my mind.”

John's father was not furious because his noble son said he would marry a merchant's daughter. He knew that his son had been very smart since he was a child and there was no need for him to give him advice.

"Oh, then how do you plan to integrate into Yaxia's circle? Will you be ostracized if you marry a merchant's daughter?"

John collected his thoughts and said: "Father, the status of businessmen is certainly low at present.

But with the promulgation of laws regulating various fields in Asia, the establishment of the four major academies, and the emergence of new weapons, I see the possibility of a significant improvement in the status of merchants.

Although it may not be as good as nobles, the wealth represented by merchants can have unexpected effects.

Besides, I only regard this as a backup plan, father, you don’t have to worry about me."

"I'm not worried about you. You haven't let me worry about you since you were a child. Are you leaving again the day after tomorrow?"

"Yes."

"fight?"

"That's right, fight the mermaid tribe."

"Be safe, I don't want to lose you."

"Don't worry, father, I don't want to lose you either."

"Well, good night, John."

"Good night, father."

On May Day, I still stick to the Great Wall of Code Words. I hope all readers can give me some monthly tickets to support... The double monthly tickets at the beginning of the month will be wasted if not used~
