Many people know that Morrison Manor was seized and looted by an unknown armed force.

However, few know that the Iron Blood Brotherhood Bandit Corps was nearly annihilated by him.

In Lynn's mind, he contemplated that Jonas's four sons were intercepted and killed by the so-called 'Iron Blood Brotherhood Bandit Corps.'

Surely someone wants to use the name of the Bandit Corps to cover their tracks.

The need to cover tracks stems from two possible reasons.

Internal strife and external threats!

External threats, armed forces not as strong as Jonas, yet harboring ideas against Jonas's status or the manor.

Internal strife naturally points to a power struggle within the manor!

No matter what the possibility is, it's good news for Lynn.

As the largest Manor Lord in Morgan Town, Jonas holds a substantial number of employed free people, land, and peasants.

Naturally, he also has a large number of guards, even soldiers!

If he unites with other Manor Lords in Morgan Town, gathers all the armed forces, and comes to lay siege.

Lynn cannot guarantee whether the city wall will withstand.

But now, with Jonas's four sons being intercepted by bandits, a storm is sure to ensue!

He'll have more time to develop his territory!

Suppressing the notions in his mind.

Lynn looked straight at Gasper and spoke: "Gasper, from now on, you are the intelligence captain of Morgan Town."

"I will have Rose allocate five more people for you to form a ten-man squad."

"And you'll be given five gold pounds per month for daily contacts and expenses, as well as two warhorses from Badan!"

Standing before Lynn, Gasper slightly bowed without speaking.

But waited for more words from Master Lynn.

From a five-man squad to forming a ten-man squad.

Along with five gold pounds and warhorses!

Such generous contributions from Master Lynn naturally come with his demands.

Indeed.

As he guessed, Master Lynn's voice soon continued.

"I need you to build an outstanding intelligence team in Morgan Town."

"I don't ask for you to catch wind of everything in Morgan Town and report it to me."

"At least... I need to know immediately about major events happening in each manor in Morgan Town."

"As for how they infiltrate each manor, you are in charge of it."

Upon hearing this.

Gapas no longer kept silent, bowing even lower, his words full of respect and sincerity.

"Yes, Master."

Gapas prepared to leave; something instantly came to mind.

"Master, there's something I've forgotten to inform you about."

"Morrison Manor has been taken over by Jonas, with at least five hundred peasants and nearly a hundred guards sent there."

Lynn nodded, "I understand, you may leave."

After dismissing Gapas, Lynn remained seated in the armchair.

He previously considered taking control and occupying Aiden's manor territory.

Despite using broadcasting techniques for planting.

At least there are several thousand acres of cultivated and planted farmland.

No matter how low the yield of barley and wheat per acre, a morsel is still meat...

However.

Upon considering the geographical environment of Morrison Manor, he chose to abandon it.

Perhaps due to better cultivation in the past, Morrison Manor was located in a wide-open area without any cover.

It can be said.

Enemies interested in the Morrison Manor estate can choose any direction to attack!

The risk factor is too high.

Moreover.

With spring upon them, his territory has plenty of wasteland needing cultivation and planting.

There's absolutely no need to think about Aiden's thousands of acres of farmland.

Most critically.

With the current armed forces in his territory, he wouldn't think about dividing troops to control Morrison Manor.

If Morgan Town's Manor Lords detect and initiate an attack...

With over seventy miles from his territory to Morrison Manor, reinforcing from his territory would be impossible.

Lynn can only temporarily abandon that piece of land.

Waiting for when he has more armed soldiers before considering again.

Rising from the armchair, Lynn walked out of the castle.

Walking past the red brick buildings, he arrived at wasteland a few miles away from the town.

Five thousand townsmen transformed into different teams, still methodically working on cultivation.

In front, weeds, stones, and tree roots are being cleared, followed by draft horses and wheel plows driving the ox.

Townsmen follow behind, clearing stones and tree roots from the soil and breaking up large clumps of earth.

Another team of townsmen uses iron hoes and iron rakes to level the soil and dig grooves for barley seeds.

Following behind are townsmen responsible for fertilizing and seeding.

Finally, there are townsmen responsible for covering barley seeds' soil.

Up to this step, the farming process is complete.

Afterwards, just determine whether to irrigate based on soil humidity and moisture content.

Each townsman has different roles.

Even if initially they are unfamiliar or inexperienced in farming.

After division of labor and repeated practice, in just a few days they can proficiently complete their planting tasks.

With a thought, Lynn opened the [Holographic Map] to observe.

Based on the current pace of cultivation and planting by the townsmen.

If enough barley seeds are delivered to his territory, in a maximum of two months.

By the end of April, at least fifty thousand acres of farmland can be cultivated and planted!

Nodding contently, Lynn moved his body again, stepping onto the open ground and joining the planting team.
