However, it is evident that clothing production is not a strong point of the Hesse Territory.

Vandar continued: "The economic crops we harvested this year, such as hemp, kudzu, and cotton, still cannot meet the needs of the territory. The territory requires these materials not only for clothing but also for storage bags, hemp ropes, furniture, quilts, sheets, and carpets."

"The only thing we have in greater numbers is leather armor. After all, under your guidance, our territory's fishing and hunting output far surpasses the normal standard. As of now, the territory has produced over 7,000 leather armors."

"But as you know, in the southern part of the Empire, leather armor is not popular. So these apparels don't sell well, which might be a blessing in disguise, allowing our citizens and slaves to have a good winter with the accumulated leather armor."

Su Li said somewhat regretfully: "I feel that the territory really needs a senior administrative bureaucrat to unify development. Our territory is overly focused on heavy industry, and the production of clothing and daily necessities is seriously lagging behind."

Silk does exist in this world, and the Imperial people can make it, but the silk imported from the distant Zhendan Dynasty is even more valuable than gold.

The territory's specialty that Su Li hoped to mass-produce is undoubtedly five major categories: grain, armor, spice, silk, and porcelain.

These five categories are the most lucrative industries, allowing the territory to earn enormous wealth with a small population.

He also mentioned this goal during meetings, but it is evident that the territory currently lacks the strength to achieve it.

Vandar shrugged and said: "There's no way around it. Our development is seriously hindered by the military, and we can only solve the basic grain production issue according to your initial development plan. Once we have surplus manpower, we can then focus on certain industries."

"Lord, we have actually developed quite rapidly. In just a little over half a year, we have to fight wars while farming. Besides developing the fertile land of Jorn Shallow Bay, we've also established 43 acres of spice fields, a sixth of an acre of extraordinary valley field, and planted three extraordinary spirit trees."

"It truly has been very quick. One cannot become fat in one mouthful."

43 acres of spice, 1/6 acre of extraordinary grain, and 3 extraordinary spirit trees are some of the largest farming achievements Su Li has made in the past six months.

Speaking on this topic, Su Li's mood improved significantly, and he said enthusiastically: "My minister, you are right, perhaps I have been too impatient. Tell me about the extraordinary spirit valley, have all the crops on that sixth of an acre survived?"

Vandar immediately nodded excitedly and said: "Yes, Lord. Under the care of Sister Isabella, we successfully grew 276 stalks of emerald green ears in the 100 square meter purple spirit field. If we can have a good harvest, we can expect a return of at least 2500 to 3500 Golden Crowns."

After speaking, before Su Li could become exhilarated, he continued: "And that's not all! Besides this 100 square meters of extraordinary valley field, we also used the [Sunset] divine magic on the blood sacrifice field and successfully grew emerald green ears. After our tally, there are at least 74 emerald green ears growing among each acre of wheat fields."

Indeed! Su Li excitedly clenched his fists. He remembered Isabella telling him before that the normal extraordinary spirit valley grows out of farmland, requiring one acre of wheat fields to absorb enough Wind of Jilun to produce one plant.

The Sunset divine magic fulfilled all these conditions, so the spirit grain grew smoothly in the wheat fields.

On the contrary, it was Su Li's 1/6 purple spirit field that was an alternative production method.
