Release that Witch Chapter 55: A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity

Roland opened the door of the office. Barov has been waiting in the room for a long time.

He threw document/secretary to Assistant Minister, and lay straight on the chair, with his legs on the desk.

If there is no outsider present, he really wants to sing a little song.

"His Royal Highness, please grieve," Barov quickly finished reading document/secretary, and frowned, "King died unfortunately, and the murderer was actually First Prince. This is really a tragedy, I don't know what your plan is next." /

"The death of Gerald is too strange. I want to look at the decisions of Third Sister and Fifth Sister before making any plans," said Roland. "However, there are some things we should guard against early."

Barov looks at the prince, waiting for the other's next.

"Kingdom Capital may become turbulent because of this change of kingship. The first thing to do is to take away your loved ones and family members." Of course, important is to prevent Second Prince from threatening them with these people. At the present time, Assistant Minister is indispensable for maintaining the normal operation of Border Town administration and finance. Roland took a sip of tea and went on to say, "You and Carter, as well as your subordinates, wrote a home letter. I will take personal guard to Kingdom Capital and arrange them to other towns for temporary refuge."

"Not for Border Town?" Barov is not a fool, and more than 20 years of political experience made him immediately understand the prince's deep meaning.

"No." Roland does not want the other party to threaten his subordinates with his family members, nor does he want his subordinates to threaten them with his family members, so he chose a compromise method and first settle in other safer towns. Wait for Border Town to gain a foothold before migrating.

"I see. Thank you Your Highness for your concern," Assistant Minister nodded in agreement, which relieved Roland. After all, there are too few talents available to him.

"The other thing is about the ore trade. Recently, iron ore suspended exports and only sold raw gems to Willow Town," he ordered, "I need to keep these iron ore stones for free."

"This will reduce fiscal revenue, Your Highness."

"But it won't drop much. Miners have found a new gem mine bed that can make up for some of the gap," Roland said. In addition, there is no business in winter, and everyone is unwilling to go out for business on the days when Evil Beast may appear at any time. There may be only two or three rounds of transactions in the long four months. For lightweight dhows, obviously transporting the raw gems is a more cost-effective option.

"I see," Barov recorded these.

After Assistant Minister left, Roland also called Carter Lannis. "I need to expand the size of the militia team. After the recruitment is issued, you can arrange it and transfer a few quick-responding and capable players to the new team to make Captain. The training will follow the method of the last implementation. "

"His Highness, if you still follow the last training method, it will take a long time for the new team to come in handy."

"That's better than a bunch of disorganized mobs," Roland waved him to do what he said. Although such a trained team is far from being an army, I am afraid that it is the level of military training for college students, but sometimes Battle strength needs to be compared with opponents. In addition to Evil Beast, which is not long-brained, his most likely opponents are a group of "hybrid army" made up of private troops, mercenary, and serfs. As long as they are equipped with the cross-era weapon, the level of college students can almost cope.

When Carter also left, Roland couldn't help laughing.

He didn't expect that such a coincidence would happen! It's like sending charcoal in the snow and handing pillows when you doze off.

This is bad news for myself? A dilemma? Big mistake! He doesn't know much about Garcia Wimbledon, but she is by no means the kind of person who can be slaughtered. First Prince was sentenced to death in such a short period of time. Even if there is no inside story, she may not easily return to Kingdom Capital.

He just follows the instructions. As long as you stay in Border Town, someone will jump out of -- and stronghold Duke is likely to be the first person to sit still. Otherwise, he will not send the recalled document/secretary to his own hands in this ghost weather.

Adult Duke hopes to see it one day earlier, and sleep and eat harder one day earlier.

If you choose to stay at Border Town, it is equivalent to decree which violated the new King. By the time Months of Demons is over, chances are that adults Duke will be holding the banner of Timothy Wimbledon and give themselves a profound lesson. And this is exactly what Roland needs.

If you ask what is most lacking in industrialization, the answer is undoubtedly people.

It requires a large number of people to invest in this large-scale production, turning people into parts, and driving this huge machine. It is no exaggeration to say that it was precisely because of the enclosure movement of "Sheep eating people" in Britain that a large number of peasants were driven from the land and made them free laborers, which laid a deep foundation for the subsequent industrial revolution.

The industrial age is so rude, as long as you continue to invest in universally educated laborers in this furnace, you can get rich returns. The finer the industrial classification, the more people will be needed.

Roland has been plagued by population issues.

Border Town has a total of more than 2,000 residents. Even with the new era of machinery, it is just a workshop-style production. Without a large number of people available, many projects cannot be launched. But where did he go to steal so many people?

Buy a slave? Not to mention where you can buy thousands of slaves at one time, the slaves of adulthood are very expensive, and they have no significance in training. The training period for young slaves under the age of ten is too long, even if child labor is conscientiously employed, it will take several years.

Recruiting talent? How many people can be attracted to this kind of borderland? And it will only cost more than buying a slave.

Encouraging multiple lives? Forced matchmaking? Forget it ...

He didn't focus on Longsong Stronghold, but the kingdom is in a stable state. He started to play around feudal lord, just joking about the future. Duke Ryan also did not dare to face himself in the face, but could only secretly trip up.

But now it's different. After Timothy took the throne, he eagerly hoped that all his competitors would disappear. From this recall, he can see his eager mood. Duke Ryan can obviously also see this. Once the constraint of the old King is lost, as the Western Region director, it is strange that he does nothing.

This is the long-awaited opportunity of Roland.

Longsong Stronghold, as the border of the kingdom, has been a town for hundreds of years and has nearly 10,000 residents. After stronghold, there are even more tracts of land and defenseless towns. As long as he defeats stronghold Duke and wins the city, he can get a large number of freemen and complete the original accumulation of wealth.

What could be more accessible to the population than annexation? What can accumulate wealth faster than plunder?

This news is like a beacon that dispels the fog, illuminating the direction of Roland.

He will never miss such a rare opportunity.
