"Haha! You are a very good boy, you know how to choose at such a young age! Moreover, the Black Rock family has grown up by selling black rocks before, so this matter is left to Boris. This is the best choice for you now. The choice is... He and you, the neighbors believe that from now on, the relationship between your two families will be even better!"
When Bernard heard this, he immediately praised Nalant, which made Nalant arouse the envy of many nobles.
In their impression, the Earl had never praised a person so many times.
After Bernard laughed, he paused and continued, "It's just that Nalant is a member of the population, so you don't have to worry too much about it!"
"In the next more than a month, I believe His Majesty the King, the conscription leader will be issued. At this time every year, the slave trade business is the most popular. At that time, as long as you have enough, you can buy as many serfs as you want with gold coins. It turns out that even if you are a craftsman, it won’t be a problem.”
"Of course, Narant, you can work harder this year and in the autumn war. If you are lucky, you may be able to capture some people and come back. Then you can even save money on buying slaves!"
"Yes, Your Majesty the Earl!"
In fact, Narant has been thinking about this. He is waiting for the Northern Expedition to start in the autumn, and then whether he buys it or captures it himself, this is his only way to quickly increase the territory's population.
…
Although there are two shocking tasks next, Narant has no clue yet.
But just to be cautious, he did not take a group of nobles to Lucky Village to check it out in the afternoon.
So when the nobles finished eating the ice cream, Nalant returned to the castle first.
As for the nobles, Nalant let them do what they wanted in Maiye Village.
In order to show his generosity as a host, the tavern and restaurant were open to the nobles free of charge for these two days.
The nobles also have fun, and this is a good opportunity, so most of them go to taverns and restaurants to chat and chat while enjoying delicious food.
After returning to the castle, Nalant first went back to his study and designed several different versions of the manor house.
The design concepts of these manor buildings still have the past life and this life. The combination of architectural styles also meets the construction requirements of brick buildings.
After a total of five drawings were designed, Nalant called Baron Carlo and the viscount to wait for them to select the small building. After the appearance, the two parties signed an agreement to build the manor.
The two nobles were very satisfied with Nalant's design of the small building. After signing the contract, they happily paid a 20% deposit directly.
But to Nalant's surprise, just after signing the contract with these two nobles, three more nobles came one after another.
These three nobles also came to Nalant to confirm the construction of the manor.
Nalant was naturally happy to welcome all comers. He signed the construction contract with these three nobles and then immediately found Boris!
"Narant has already signed a construction contract with five nobles?" Boris's eyes widened.
"Yes, it's 20%. The deposit has been paid! The combined area of these five nobles' estates is more than 1,300 square meters!"
"Hiss!" Boris's face suddenly turned red. Before he signed a cooperation contract with Nalant, he was already waving at him with hundreds of gold coins.
"Boris, don't be too happy too early. Although the five nobles have already made a contract, it's just the same. They also want to complete the construction of the manor as soon as possible, so you must be equipped with sufficient manpower and you can't delay them for too long!"
"I believe that many nobles are still waiting and watching. If they see good results, they will definitely come to us to build a manor!!"
"Narant, don't worry, there will be no problem with manpower. I have now sent people back to summon the territory. The masons and carpenters are here to wait for them to learn how to build brick buildings. I will also find a way to dig more in Tulip City." Some craftsmen are here!" Boris was tempted by hundreds of gold coins, and he was very motivated.
"very good!"
Boris felt reassured that Narante was doing the job, so he nodded and immediately began to sign a cooperation contract between the two of them.
As the saying goes, brothers settle accounts clearly. No matter who you cooperate with, the contract must be signed in advance.
…
After signing the contract, Boris also wanted to take Nalant out for a few drinks.
But Nalant was still concerned about whether he was in the mood to drink, so he rejected it directly.
"What will happen next in my territory that can shock all the nobles?" After Boris left, Narant was left alone in the study to think hard.
But after much deliberation, I don't have any good clues.
Even if he really ran around naked without caring about his face, the fifth shock would still be unfulfilled.
But this fifth shock was exactly what he was looking forward to most, the reward.
Boom, boom, boom!
"My lord, this is Civil Affairs Officer Mario, asking to see you!"
At this moment it was Narant, but Lilia knocked on the door.
"Let him in!"
Following Nalant, Mario came to the study at his command.
"Meet the adults!"
"What's wrong with Mario?"
"Sir, because the population of the territory has increased dramatically today, and the civilian restaurants are even more popular, there is not much whale meat left!"
This time, the nobles brought a total of more than 700 servants and subordinates.
Although Storm Leader will give them three free meals of broth and brown bread.
But in the face of the storm, the newly opened restaurant, and the unprecedented delicious food in the restaurant, naturally everyone has no ability to resist.
However, a grilled oyster costs five copper coins, a brown sugar black bread costs seven copper coins, and a lobster costs ten copper coins, which is naturally impossible for everyone to eat.
The grilled oysters and lobster and the brown sugar black bread can only be tasted and are truly a feast for everyone, including whale meat.
This whale meat only costs five copper coins to get a small bowl, so for these rare meats, the guards and servants are simply on the tip of their tongues, so they have a carnival and work hard to eat.
As a result, there is not much in the Storm Territory, and whale meat is at the bottom.
"Whale doesn't have much meat? It's Mario, so let's top it with salted fish first!"
Nalant actually forgot about this matter, but thinking about it, it had been three or four months since he last obtained whale meat, and it had indeed been consumed, so it was almost done.
During this period, there were no more whale stranding incidents on the coast.
In this way, if he wants to obtain more whale meat, it is no longer possible.
unless……
"Unless whaling..."
"Yes! I can hunt whales! In my impression, I have never heard of nobles who can hunt whales! When the time comes, I will let the nobles look at me. People hunting whales will shock their jaws!"
As soon as Nalant slapped his head, he suddenly had an idea and thought of obtaining whale meat again. This method also gave him a good opportunity to complete the fourth shock.
(Everyone’s responsibility to protect the ocean is here because the plot requires it! Don’t blame anyone!)
