Throughout the afternoon, Velin was thinking about how to poach Devonshire, his Future's Chief Knight Instructor. As for inquiring about information and finding a partner for his Guardian Knight, he forgot about it.
Unknowingly, the appreciation duel came to an end, with Devonshire winning the championship, a knight from Uncle Olcott winning the runner-up, Cassius winning the third place, and six others winning, including Isius.
As night fell, a grand Banquet was held, and every noble participated in this social dance.
The crowd searched everywhere for Devonshire, and finally found him in a corner.
"This strange knight, what's the matter with you?" Devonshire opened his eyes, looked at Velin who appeared in front of him, and asked Yu warily.
"Devonshire Your Excellency, please be alert."
Velin Seeing that the other party was not hostile, he shamelessly sat down not far away.
"Introduce yourself, my name is Velin·Exes. I admire your ability and hope..."
Before Velin could finish speaking, Devonshire bluntly refused. "Sorry, Sir Velin, I have no intention of leaving the church, nor do I want to specifically mentor someone."
"Well, have a nice night."
Seeing the other party's indifferent expression, Velin smiled awkwardly and then left the place.
However, he did not give up in his heart.
Only those with personality can feel fulfilled when they are under his command.
After this time Banquet passes, Velin plans to go to Provincial Capital to investigate Devonshire in detail, hoping to find a breakthrough.
Back in Banquet, Brian held up a glass of wine, looked at Velin, and said with a smile, "How about it, it failed."
"It doesn't matter, that's where we are now." Velin responded to Yu with a smile.
"Okay, Devonshire is a man who has no desires and desires. It is difficult to impress him with external objects. If we can investigate why he gave up his surname, there may be some hope."
"Good idea, cousin."
Looking at his excited cousin, Brian shook his head and changed the subject. "Don't think about it today, just relax."
"I got it."
Afterwards, many minor nobles gathered around and chatted with Velin.
Nothing but flattery and the like. Velin skillfully spoke polite words and established a superficial relationship with the other party.
After all, Future will be here for a long time, and he will have to establish a good relationship with these little nobles in Cadro Province, which will also make it easier for him to sell products in the future.
On the third day after Banquet, Uncle Velin said goodbye and returned to Lake of Star Prayer.
On the third day after returning to the castle, Landov came to Velin's study with a new report.
"Lord, this year𪣻 there are five hundred Blackhide Pork Pig that can be put into the market. Each head is at least 300 kilograms. Excluding the bones, it can produce Eleventh Street ten thousand kilograms of meat."
"Luoniu Camel Beast Ranch, according to your instructions, moved to Blue Gauze Town at the end of this year. It is now located at Star Prayer Town Ranch. There are Eleventh Street Luoniu Camel Beast, including five cubs newly born this year, two males and three females."
"Black Tea Tree Six Black Tea Tree 𪣻12 kilograms were picked in the canyon. Twenty branches have been transplanted, and sixteen of them have taken root and are alive. The normal growth needs to be observed for two years to determine whether they are completely alive."
"In addition, there are 80 bottles of luminous wine in addition to those distributed by . There are also 3,000 bottles of ordinary wine, of which 1,800 bottles are distributed to the three towns, and the remaining 1,200 bottles are stored in the castle warehouse."
Velin was looking at the report and listening to Landov's report.
"I feel relieved that you are responsible for this." Velin patted Landov on the shoulder and praised Yu, "Black Tea Leaves, you leave one pound, Shining Wine will receive ten bottles, and I will give you six hundred bottles of wine."
"Lord, you..."
"Don't worry, wait until I finish." Velin interrupted Landov, and continued, "These things are not all for you. You can keep some of them, and the rest will be rewarded to the ranchers, Manor farmers and garrison soldiers."
"As for Blackhide Pork Pig, the output is too low. I still want Train Troops, so I won't leave it to you this time."
"On behalf of hundreds of soldiers and more than a thousand farmers, I thank Lord for your gift." Landov beat his chest and saluted, saying loudly.
"Keep up the good work and I hope you can achieve better results."
After Landov left, Velin began to write the order and asked the messenger to distribute the order to the three towns.
Blackhide Pork Pig comes out of the market, which is when Velin starts Winter Training Plan.
He will spend three months to improve the quality of the Standing Army team.
The meat of Black Pork is tender and contains Mana Energy, which is helpful for the cultivation of Transcendent. This was the original intention of exchanging this kind of livestock.
Less than three days after the order was issued, Blue Gauze Town and Orlando Town, except for a small number of remaining troops, all Standing Army were transferred to the camp 20 kilometers west of Star Prayer Town.
At the same time, ten Blackhide Pork Pig were slaughtered and transported to Winter Training Camp.
Winter Training Camp and Velin wore silver armor and stood on Training Stage, looking at the four teams separated below.
On the far left are the troops directly under the castle. In addition to the hundreds of troops related to Landov, there are 800 people. All those who were damaged in the last battle have been replaced.
Next came Star Prayer Town's troops, numbering 1,200 people, fully armed, some wearing iron armor and most wearing leather armor. There were Spears. The leader in front was High-Bronze Tier Warrior Iden, who had studied with Belder for more than a year.
Then came Standing Army of Orlando Town, with a number of eight hundred, relying on Large Iron Mine of Orlando Town, all of whom were armored and armed to the teeth, temporarily led by Cassius assigned by Velin.
Finally, there is Standing Army of Blue Gauze Town. Compared with the other two towns, Blue Gauze Town's army is lagging behind in terms of weapons and equipment, and its number is only 800 people. All of them have a murderous look on their faces. In the past year, they have been fighting for territory with the Monster Clan, with a small fight every three days and a big fight every day. The leader is Isius.
All of these 3,600 people have entered the profession of warrior.
As a Transcendent profession that is easy to get started but difficult to climb, most people practice it for sixty years and end up at the Bronze level throughout their lives. In addition to the influence of talent, the most important thing is the influence of Cultivation Resources.
Yes, the warrior profession is a dead end Transcendent profession in the eyes of the nobles, but in the eyes of civilians, it is a lifeless career.
"Starting from the first day, three months, it is Winter Training Period."
"Cultivation Resources has it, Healing Potions has it too."
"I have only one request. In three months, each of you must have a qualitative improvement in strength."
"If you are not qualified, Standing Army will be eliminated and transferred to the militia."
"To me, Useless People is not worthy to be among the Standing Army."
Velin's voice was not loud, and all the Standing Army soldiers present could hear it clearly. If you don't advance, you will be eliminated.
