As the population in the territory continues to grow, even with Kuisi and Petra, they are still overwhelmed.

However, they can be assigned a few suitable assistants for collaboration.

In terms of judicial sanctions, Erin Mills, who studies the law, is available.

Once she completes drafting the Territorial Law, it will be approved by him.

Afterward, a Territory Court will be established in the territory, with Erin Mills serving as the acting judge of the court.

To help him handle the complex daily affairs in the territory.

The Territory Court also needs to appoint law enforcement officers.

Responsible for enforcing court judgments and ensuring that violators are punished!

Twenty Guards can be assigned by Red for this purpose.

In terms of military defense, it is currently the least of his concerns.

With the Garrison System allowing military promotion, it adequately resolves the issues of soldier management given the current size of the territory.

Finally, there is fiscal taxation.

George, as the merchant steward, manages the trading and exchange activities in the territory.

Moreover, George is responsible for recording financial transactions to ensure funding sources in the territory.

The current territory still follows a communal living production model, not yet evolved into a period of land privatization.

Therefore, there are no issues regarding taxation.

However.

As the territory continues to develop, townsmen will own their own land.

Then, there will still be a need to appoint specialized treasurers and tax officials.

Even though various government agencies need to be appointed in the territory to assist him in managing it.

He remains the ultimate ruler of the territory, and he must firmly hold all power in his hands!

As Lynn deliberates in his mind.

A sound of footsteps arises from the distant steps.

Under Red's watchful eyes, a guard strides quickly, arriving in front of Lynn.

The guard reports: "Sir, Scholar Clive requests an audience outside the castle."

Lynn glanced at the guard: "Let him come up."

After the guard acquiesces, he quickly retreats.

Shortly thereafter.

Clive, dressed in a scholar's robe, ascends the steps, walks past the reception hall, and halts a few meters beside Lynn.

Clive slightly bows and respectfully says, "Lord, based on the 'Dragon' territory emblem you outlined, I've designed a draft armor sketch."

As he speaks, Clive hands over a rolled-up piece of paper.

Red steps forward, takes it from Clive's hand, and passes it to Lynn.

Opening the paper reveals a black-and-white design sketch depicting a soldier clad in armor, appearing before Lynn's eyes.

The overall visual of the armor is a combination of plate armor and chain armor.

The chest armor, shoulder armor, helmet, arm guards, back armor, etc., are all plate armor components.

Only at the joints and at the groin protection are chain armor used for connections.

This ensures protection without affecting the wearer's agility.

On the surface of the plate armor components, there are ridged patterns resembling dragon scales.

This transforms the previously monotonous plate armor into something more unique and prominent while enhancing the armor's visual depth and three-dimensional effect!

On the half-oval shield is a swirling dragon head pattern!

Looking at the plate armor, Lynn inquires: "Scholar Clive, the standard of this plate armor is indeed impressive."

"Imposing and domineering, it provides a strong visual impact."

"But, has Scholar Clive visited the Blacksmith Workshop?"

"Consulted with the foreman Ehrelo of the Blacksmith Workshop to see if their forging level and skills can create such complex ridged plate armor?"

Upon hearing Lynn's words, the initially proud expression on Clive's face turns serious.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he responds: "I apologize, Lord, I was too simplistic in my considerations."

"I should first understand the forging abilities of the blacksmiths in the Blacksmith Workshop..."

Lynn nodded: "Scholar Clive, research isn't just idle speculation."

"Research must meet practical conditions and be applicable in real life to be considered good research."

"Otherwise, no matter how exquisite the armor, it would only exist on paper."

"Scholar Clive, what do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Clive quickly bows his head, "Lord, you are correct."

Lynn continued: "Scholar Clive, if possible, I would prefer you combine the currently produced composite armor for pattern designs."

"The design does not need to be overly complicated; as long as it can distinguish between enemy identities and have some decorative aspect, it will be enough!"

Clive comprehends, "I understand, Lord, I will proceed with another design."

Lynn replied affirmatively, allowing Clive to retreat.

As a Lord, Lynn naturally hopes that soldiers in his territory are adorned with imposing and beautiful armor.

But everything requires the Blacksmith Workshop to have a sufficiently high technical level.

Just relying on Clive's design paper, unless Flint or he personally intervenes.

Otherwise, given the abilities of the blacksmiths and apprentices in Ehrelo's Blacksmith Workshop, they will never be able to produce such designs in their lifetime.

The design of the armor's appearance is important.

But even more critical is the performance of the armor!
