Chapter 5 Seeing the World

Xiaotru himself also feels that with divine help, his skills will improve very fast.

This is a feeling he has never experienced, and there are new inspirations every day.

Constant improvement, continuous progress, and even feel that he is about the same level as his father.

"Could it be... the old man's level is too poor to delay me?"

With the rapid progress of technology, some inflated ideas have naturally emerged.

Fortunately, the progress was getting slower and slower, and Derek also intended to control it, so he did not expand completely.

A month is still too short. Even the rest of the family doesn't think that he can make a name for it in a month.

But Derek thought he would go out and have a look sooner or later.

With the data panel, one month of development is worth half a year for others. It's too boring to stay here all the time.

Besides, how to grow quickly without opening up a financial resource?

Rely on little Tru? The income of one or two gold coins a year is still too small.

In recent days, I have saved more than 20 cast iron spearheads, which is not enough as goods.

I had concerns before, so I was a little conservative. The next step was to exchange the gold coins in my hand for strength.

Leaving a part of the expenses, the monthly salary of each recruit is 80 copper coins, which is lower than the normal level.

Little Tru is currently a silver coin. After all, he is a follower.

The monthly salary expenditure is less than eight or nine silver coins, plus rations and various losses, one gold coin is enough. Leaving 10 gold coins for emergency, at least 40 gold coins can be used, which is a lot of money.

"Recruit 20 more people?"

Andrew felt that his nephew was crazy. Dozens of people eat and drink and get paid more. How long can he last with that little capital?

"Derke, you need to train a group of soldiers first, and then find a way to make money.

Believe me, it's easy to recruit soldiers, but you have to feed them.

Otherwise, it can be maintained without loyalty.

Andrew talked about his experience.

The Ferrera family is very powerful. There are more than 100 regular guards and seven or eight knights. In addition, militia can be temporarily recruited to form a 500-man team in minutes.

But these are all maintained by a large number of industries, thousands of people, a large number of manors and industries. Otherwise, they will go bankrupt today, and all this will disappear tomorrow.

Of course, Derek knows, but he insists on his own ideas.

In order to avoid Uncle Andrew's interference, he even made up a well-intentioned lie: "Uncle, I have received a long-term escort list and will leave soon.

We need manpower. These soldiers will be put here for training first and take them away next time." You won't be deceived, will you?" Andrew couldn't believe that there was no such good thing.

"As promised by Derek's honor, absolutely not.

This is the relationship between Count Perez.

Derek pretended to be mysterious and revealed a little news, and Andrew immediately made up a good play.

"You still have the ability to make some reliable friends outside." Andrew was a little depressed, but he no longer doubted. After all, his nephew didn't look like he had lost his mind.

To be honest, the rule of the aristocracy has both advantages and disadvantages. In the territory of the Peres family, it is really unrealistic to recruit troops without the cooperation of the sheriff.

To put it uncerdely, how can little Tru be volunteered if it is not Andrew's sentence?

Quickly sweep away the best young people in the village. Next time you want to continue to recruit troops, you need to lower your requirements a little.

After arranging the training, two apprentices were assigned to Xiaotru, and he clearly told him to train newcomers.

In this era, technical work is the secret of the family. Xiao Tru is definitely not willing to do it, but the knife is on his neck, and he has to do it even if he doesn't do it. Derek understands that little Tru will definitely not do his best at the beginning, but it doesn't matter. Time will make him understand what to do.

The data panel can only give itself the advantage of others. If you learn and do other things, you will always have more chances to make mistakes than others.

After waiting for a few days to include everyone in the panel statistics, Derek took a team of recruits on the road, and the rest accumulated experience step by step.

The goal of this time is the watchful city.

This is the largest city nearby and the second largest city in the northern province.

It is managed by officials sent by the kingdom, and even a kingdom army is stationed.

Of course, Derek was not on the road empty-handed. He took a carriage carrying a thousand catties of wheat bran on the road.

Here, there are two more copper coins per jack of wheat bran, and the purchase price is lower.

But if you bring it to the City of Watch, it is the profit of half a copper coin and a catty.

A car is full of 500 copper coins. Although it is less profitable, after all, it is earned by the hand.

As for why you don't bring more food, I'm sorry... Food is the business of the Ferrera family.

At least in the family territory, no one can beat them. The thousand catties were still received by Derek spodically.

If it weren't for Baron Ferrera's son, his body would have appeared in the stinky ditch now.

Derek's main purpose is not to make money, but to accumulate experience. First, he hired a horseman and bought a carriage, which is a fixed asset.

This simple caravan went on the road in an incomperent way.

Soon the news appeared on Baron Ferrera's desk.

The latter took a light look and had no follow-up.

...

Along the way, Derek wanted to meet some bandits and robbers to practice.

Unfortunately, the escort standards are a little over-standard. No one went crazy along the way and fought desperately with more than a dozen soldiers for more than a dozen silver coins.

After wandering all the way, it took me ten days to finally get there.

The City of Watch, this is the first time Derek came to the world to see a serious city.

It's pitiful to say, but that's the truth.

It was Count Perez's castle, which was also a few laps in front of the City of Watch. When the soldiers guarding the gate saw the caravan, they naturally also saw the triangle flag representing the noble identity.

Symbolically, he received the entrance fee of fifty copper coins, and Derek entered the city.

Then... Who is defecating anywhere?

Derk was disgusted to death after stepping on unknown feces.

The sanitary conditions in the countryside have already made him uncomfortable, and he has always been strict in his own territory.

But the kick in the door broke all his illusions.

"The world is completely different."

Derek adjusted his mentality and sold the grain at a low price to the Ferrera family's shop, and found a place to live.

The purpose of his coming here is, firstly, to see the world as a training, and secondly, to find a reliable iron ore.
