Fantasy Simulator Chapter 78: Soda

On the vast grassland, there is an open space all around, and at a glance, it seems that there is no end in sight.

Being in it, one can't help but feel a sense of vastness, and it seems that even the mood has changed a lot.

"Is it here?"

Riding a horse on this grassland, Chen Heng patrolled the land.

He looked around, looked at the land in front of him, and thought in his heart.

At this moment, it has been more than three months since the trial contest is over.

For more than three months, Oliman named him the Earl of Soda, as he said before, and the Soda area was sealed to Chen Heng as his territory.

The so-called Soda area is a vast area bordering the desert of the Kutu Kingdom, and its area is very vast.

And this time, Oliman waved his hand and directly sealed the entire Soda area to Chen Heng, the Earl of Soda.

From the perspective of the area of ​​the territory, the territory of the earl of Chen Heng is larger than the territory of other lords in Kutu.

But in reality, it just looks good.

In fact, the Soda area borders the desert, most of which are areas where foreign races are active, and it is very difficult to form a strong rule in it.

Moreover, in this vast area, the people who can really be ruled by Chen Heng and can be used to collect taxes are not too many, and the number is pitiful.

According to Chen Heng's estimation, there are probably only tens of thousands of people who can be directly ruled by Chen Heng in the entire Suoda area.

The number of tens of thousands of people sounds like a lot, but it is very ugly to spread across this vast area.

When I came to this territory, Chen Heng didn't do anything during this period of time. He just patrolled this area with the local guide and Kurudo.

A great man once said that without investigation, there is no right to speak.

Chen Heng thinks this sentence is right.

The importance of intelligence is self-evident in many ways.

So, after coming to his own territory, Chen Heng immediately started an investigation, wanting to know the most basic situation on this land.

After observing for a period of time, Chen Heng already knows what he should do next.

"Although the climate in the north is harsh, if there is no war, the land yield is sufficient."

Riding aside, looking at Chen Heng, Kurudo said, "Although the production here is not as good as that in the south, but because the place is so large, each lord has a lot of land, which does not make people hungry. Die."

"The real uncomfortable thing is the orc thieves who come here at every turn, and some other inexplicable creatures."

Speaking of this, his face looked a little helpless: "In order to defend against these orcs and thieves, a large number of men were forcibly transferred and fought with these people, so that they often missed the time of farming, and sometimes even waited until the harvest. Will be destroyed by these orcs."

He introduced Chen Heng to the situation in the North, and also introduced the main enemies he will face in the next period of time.

From what he said, Chen Heng gradually understood the basic situation here, and he also had a clear understanding of what he needed to do in the next period of time.

"Probably understand."

Chen Heng nodded and continued to look at Kurudo: "I will trouble you for a while."

This time Chen Heng came here, not alone, Kurudo and others all came here with him and became one of his followers.

These foundations that Chen Heng had laid in Koutou City in the past were all brought over by him this time and put into construction.

Next, Chen Heng began the process of building his own territory.

To be honest, it is very difficult to build from a blank space.

But fortunately, Chen Heng is not poor and white.

Compared to others, he has many advantages.

His wife is Venal, the royal princess, which means that he is very close to the royal family and can get a considerable degree of support from Oliman and even the entire Kutu kingdom.

The lords and nobles around, looking at the royal family's face, will also take a high look at him, and will open the door to him.

Secondly, because of the previous cooperation, he has a very good relationship with the northern lords, and even to a certain extent, he is their biggest benefactor.

After the North-South trade started, although many people saw the huge benefits contained in it, they also began to try to intervene in it, but they started too late, and currently they have not found a low-cost, risky one like Chen Heng. Reliable business routes operate.

In addition to the advantages established in the previous period, the current North-South trade still has a large share of Chen Heng.

The result of this trade route is the general goodwill of the Northern Landlord towards Chen Heng, and he will not refuse many of his requests.

The large amount of profit gained from trade ~IndoMTL.com~ also allows Chen Heng to have a lot of money, so that he will not fall into a dilemma.

Plus he himself is a powerful knight.

This is the most important point.

In this era, the role of a knight is beyond ordinary people's imagination.

With Chen Heng's current strength, as long as he carries a guard of a hundred people, it is enough to move across this area, and those scattered alien thieves are nothing to him.

However, despite all the advantages, Chen Heng still had a very difficult life.

The conditions in the northern area are so bad that it makes him a little difficult to start.

However, he was not discouraged.

Before coming here, he already knew something about the situation here, and he had already made a certain amount of psychological preparation.

These circumstances are not enough to stump him.

In this way, the Earl of Soda, named Kailin, took root in Soda.

Just after coming here, he started his own actions.

He led Kurudo and others to patrol the surrounding areas, and wiped out some thieves who had been raging around for a long time, as well as small tribes, and demoted all these people to slaves.

Afterwards, he used his authority as a lord and strong force to forcibly move and gather several small clans scattered around.

In this way, he gathered the population of the entire Soda area as much as possible, and began to reclaim land and build cities in several key places.

When the population gathered, there were fewer places Chen Heng needed to guard, and the pressure on the military was suddenly reduced.

After the initial development of the city, some small tribes and even wild people who were walking around were attracted to the city, and they continued to migrate to the city.

In this way, Chen Heng's territory slowly developed, and it started gradually.
