System: Build My Own Territory

Chapter 231: Is Mark Crazy? (10000 Words) Part 2


Money, food, poultry and livestock, peasants, iron products, etc.!

As for the farmland owned and cultivated by the Three Great Estates...

Lynn naturally wants to obtain it.

However.

With the labor force he currently possesses, he cannot ensure normal productivity on his lands while managing and planting more fields!

Moreover, considering the planting methods of those Manor Lords, after experiencing a winter of continuous snowfall.

It's hard to say how many crops are still alive.

Rather than spending labor and resources on long-distance field management.

Lynn prefers to take away the Manor Lords' properties!

The most crucial thing is.

His lands still have at least two hundred thousand acres of weed-covered wasteland.

As long as there's enough labor, he can cultivate and plant these twenty thousand acres of weed-covered wasteland entirely!

According to the barley yield, at least one hundred and fifty pounds per acre.

Or, wait for the expansion of planting scale of the [Emperor Potato].

Plant all farmland with [Emperor Potato].

He can rely on these three hundred thousand acres of farmland as the core granary of his lands.

To supply daily food consumption for the townsmen and soldiers!

Wait until there is enough labor force and armed soldiers in the land.

Then build garrisons in external fields to strengthen control over expanded territories.

This process needs to be taken step by step!

As for Janet, aside from asking him to annihilate the Three Great Estates, she has no other thoughts.

He has no idea.

However.

He knows one thing deeply.

In the face of absolute power, conspiracies are but fragile illusions!

As long as he has strong armed soldiers, the iron hoof leaves no chicken or dog behind!

He must continue to expand his army!

Create more armor and weapons, acquire more cavalry.

Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Lynn got up from the bench and returned towards the direction of the castle.

The sun set, and the night quietly descended.

Sitting down at the main seat of the dining table.

Lynn enjoyed dinner while listening to Kuisi's daily report on the land's development.

After handing a bowl of chicken leg soup to Lynn.

Kuisi said: "Master, today the land is developing normally."

"Mr. Boer brought three hundred Free People, they have been arranged to live in the Red Brick House."

Lynn nodded slightly, "Very well done."

Hearing Lynn's praise, a smile flashed in Kuisi's heart.

She continued: "Master, after dinner, shall I prepare hot water for your soaking?"

Lynn responded: "Prepare it, it's been days without soaking."

In these days, he has been grinding [Hunting] skill experience.

Although not like chopping and planting.

But continuous full bow archery is equally consuming of physical strength.

This day's lack of soaking in the bath left him with a trace of sweaty odor.

Lynn didn't mind much.

As a man, often engaging in physical labor and consuming energy.

Having a sweaty odor is quite normal.

As long as regular soaking and cleaning are done to ensure personal hygiene and health, that's enough!

Kuisi replied: "Yes, Master."

Immediately.

Kuisi's gaze shifted to the two maids standing behind waiting for orders.

The maids didn't need any verbal command and retreated knowingly.

They prepared hot water for their Master Lynn.

Until ten minutes later.

Having finished dinner, Lynn rested for a while and entered his private chamber.

He began to enjoy the comfort of hot water soaking and Kuisi's increasingly skillful massage techniques.

...

Thud!

Thud!

Thud~

Sound after sound echoed in the archery training ground.

The deep sound, even frequency, showed almost no difference.

The current Lynn can instinctively draw, aim, and shoot arrows.

And each arrow accurately hits the bullseye!

Until all thirty arrows from the quiver are shot.

Lynn stood tall, only then relaxing slightly.

He handed the standard longbow to Red behind him, and directly sat on the wooden chair at the back.

He picked up a piece of linen cloth from the table and wiped the sweat from his cheek, then grabbed a kettle and took a few sips.

The somewhat exhausted and heated body felt greatly relieved.

His mind moved, Lynn opened the[Heavenly Artifacts]panel.

[Hunting: Level 2 (415/500)](+)

He has continuously drawn and shot arrows at the range for three days.

A few more days at most, the[Hunting]skill will reach Level 3.

Closing the panel, Lynn's gaze rested on the rows of targets.

The target centers are full of triangular armor-piercing arrows shot and hit by him.

Meanwhile, in Lynn's mind, he was weighing the comparison between longbows and crossbows.

With his current physical strength, using the 130-pound pull standard longbow made by the Bow and Arrow Workshop.

In one go, he could only shoot twenty-something arrows.

Ordinary bows and arrows allow at most ten or so arrows before entering short-term exhaustion.

Even losing the power to fight.

With crossbows, the situation completely changes.

For effective range, penetration, and precision, crossbows cannot match the proficiency of archers with longbows.

But the advantages of crossbows are not comparable to longbows.

Firstly, crossbows do not require archers to possess strong arm strength nor long-term training to master the pulling technique.
