Chapter 190: Mother Earth is protecting you
"Lord Lord!"
Amelis yelled sweetly, her eyes were shining, and her eyebrows were squeezed together.
Ren was trembling all over when she was called, and she knew her thoughts clearly.
It was agreed that the Dragon Stone Mercenary Group could take one-tenth of the taxes collected in the territory.
The one million golden shields he forced the Modu nobles to hand in, it was clear that it was to pay taxes, and naturally it would be distributed to the Dragon Stone Mercenary Corps, which could not be denied.
"Don't worry, I won't hack your money."
Ryan was a little depressed, took out the gold ticket from the ring, and prepared to count 20,000 gold shields.
"I know Lord Lord is a person who keeps promises." Amelis smiled sweeter, looked at the gold ticket in Renn's hand, and asked: "I don't want a gold ticket, can you give me a gold shield?"
Raine took a pause, nodded and said: "Yes, but Golden Shield needs to count..."
"It's okay, leave it to me." Emilys couldn't wait to wait until Ren took out a box, opened it immediately, and counted it, her expression satisfied.
After a few minutes, she counted out five thousand golden shields, and reluctantly gave them to Renne.
Then take the 20,000 gold left in the box.
Ryan watched the box disappear into Emily's hand, and couldn't help but feel a little pain. The money became someone else's when he got the money before he warmed it up.
Thinking about it again, every year in the future, the 200,000 gold given to him by the Mordu nobles would be divided among Amelis, and Ren was distressed.
Not to mention that during the cooperation with the Dragon Stone Mercenary Corps, the taxes that came up were collected, and the profits were still divided.
"Damn, it's a big loss!"
Rehn thought, to establish his own armed forces as soon as possible, and end his employment relationship with the Dragon Stone Mercenary Corps. In the future, 200,000 gold shields per year may not be divided.
"Emilys," he rolled his eyes and said, "You made so much money in vain, and you promised me to expand the number of mercenaries to 300 people. Should we add more staff?"
"No problem." Emilys was in a good mood and spoke easily, "How many people do you want?"
"Expanded to five hundred people."
Rehn stretched out his palms, made a "five" gesture, and said, "Next, I want to rectify the affairs in the territory. If all centaurs are not suitable, you'd better be equipped with some human mercenaries to facilitate communication. ."
Centaur is a foreign race after all, most of them are grumpy, it is okay to let them patrol and guard, it is more difficult to do other things.
And there are language problems.
Centaur has its own ethnic language. Different tribes sometimes cannot communicate with each other. There are only a few Centaurs who can speak Orion. It is almost impossible to rely on them to manage the territory.
Amelis groaned for a few seconds: "I tried my best to mobilize the staff, but it will take half a month for them to reach Modo."
Ren nodded.
He has roughly guessed where Amilys' base is.
Unsurprisingly, it should be near the Wansongling Mountains in the northeastern part of the empire, which borders the prairie in the north of the empire and is the origin of many centaur tribes. From Wansongling to the north, all the way along the coast in the "northern wind and cold land", you can reach the mainland of Congatro, which is the hometown of Amelis.
The centaur crossed the Wansongling Mountains to the east, approached the coast and went south by boat, crossed the strait of the Gogol Peninsula, and entered the waters of the empire. It took almost half a month to reach Mordu.
However, Emilys seems to have no intention of hiding it.
Ryan didn't want to ask carefully, and began to take over Yangshuigang.
There is also a port company in this port. Because it was not forcibly occupied, the extraordinary patrol team had been taken away by Pirino Aiden. Therefore, the port company, from the supervisor to the ordinary employees, was very compliant to the new lord. .
Ryan left fifty centaur to take charge of the security of the port, and then got on his horse and left.
The dragon-horned horse ran smoothly on the main road.
Lane is patrolling his territory.
There are fertile farmland with no end in sight on the roadside, and there are plantations. Although it has just begun in spring, there is nothing to plant in the ground, but I am very happy to own such a large piece of land.
How to manage the Glamorgan collar in the future, he already has an abdomen.
However, these reforms require a lot of manpower to do, and now they remain as they are for the time being, and wait until the master Xi’an’s mission is completed and the situation stabilizes before implementing them.
Halfway through the journey, suddenly, an extremely large building appeared in front of him.
"Demon Soul Farm?"
Rain can hear the sounds of various monsters coming from inside on the road outside. Looking around, behind the long iron fence, there are many stocking herbivorous monsters.
"Fabian."
Wren yelled subconsciously and wanted to ask about the situation, but found that Fabian did not follow.
The half-elves are in Highbridge Harbor today to sort out accounts.
"Boss?" Sicarius stepped forward and responded. He cautiously held Rambo's gun and trot along with Renn.
"Sicarius, do you know this demon soul farm?" Wren asked.
"I know, I've been here before." Sicarius replied: "This is the bloodhoof farm. It is the largest farm in Mordu. There are tens of thousands of demonic soul species. It is said that in the entire empire, bloodhoof The number of farms can be ranked in the top three."
Ryan felt that he had heard of the bloodhoof farm.
There are several Demon Soul farms in Glamorgan territory, but this one is the largest.
He looked at the extreme fighters who were still running on their legs, and suddenly became interested. He patted the dragon-horned warrior and said loudly: "Go, let's go in and have a look, and check their tax payment by the way."
Such a large team immediately alarmed the boss as soon as it approached the gate of the farm.
A huge figure greeted him.
Ryan couldn't help being a little surprised seeing the other person from a distance.
This is a tauren with both feet and hooves, arms thicker than ordinary human legs, only three fingers, thick brown hair, huge bull head leaning forward, black long horns on both sides of the head, nostrils inlaid It has a copper ring and a long beard on the chin in a braid, and a row of thick manes grows from the back of the head, extending to the back, and a flexible cow tail is dragged behind.
His figure is a bit hunched, he is taller than the Extreme Warrior without standing upright, and his visual inspection is more than two meters three!
If you stand straight, you should be able to reach 2.5 meters.
The tauren trot all the way, his heavy hoofs shook the ground.
When Reyne entered the door, the tauren bowed and saluted, two white breaths erupted from his nostrils, and a deep and thick voice sounded:
"Mother Earth is protecting you."
"Hab* Bloodhoof, welcome Lord Lord to visit the bloodhoof farm!"
Ryan was riding a dragon horn war horse, looking at the strong tauren like a hill, the other standing on the ground was almost as high as himself, and he was very surprised.
A tauren, not far away from the Terron Plateau, opened a Demon Soul Farm to Mordu.
And the scale is still this big.
From the eyes of the soul, I saw that this tauren is very strong, already in the realm of legend, and his profession is the unique "land walker" of the tauren.
Earthwalkers are known for their powerful defenses, their strength and endurance are top-notch, stronger than Iron Guards, but they are not purely melee occupations.
Because of the preference of the Mother Earth God, he is born with the ability to get close to nature. After training, the earthwalker can draw strength from the earth, amplify oneself, heal injuries, and have extremely long physical strength and a certain ability to cast spells.
The "Sisters of the Earth" in the Church of the Earth are human beings imitating the Earthwalkers.
Ryan jumped off the horse and said, "Mr. Bloodhoof, I just passed by and came in for a visit. Will it cause you any trouble?"
While talking, he stepped forward and wanted to pat the tauren's shoulder, but found that he couldn't reach it. The other party immediately bent down and asked him to pat the tauren twice.
"of course not."
"It's my honor for Lord Lord to come to the bloodhoof farm, please call me Habu." The tauren shook his head, and the braid on his chin dangling, a bit funny, but his eyes like copper bells were full. Is sincere.
"Okay, Hubble." Renn could see that the tauren had no guilty conscience.
It is estimated that the taxation situation of the farm is very good, so I am not afraid.
"Lord, please come with me." Habu turned and invited Ren to enter the farm.
Ryan asked the centaur and the silver knight to wait in place, only brought in the Ultimate Warrior, but Emily followed by herself.
Wandering around the bloodhoof farm, Renn opened his eyes.
Many demon soul species that have only been seen above can be found here. They are rich in variety, not only in quantity, but also in amazing quality.
There are more than a dozen high-level monsters.
Even, Rein saw a group of dragonborn and demons, raised in huge iron cages, and many unnamed creatures.
This tauren is really capable and has put a lot of effort into it. He is definitely a master of domestication.
After visiting a group of fierce dragon-toothed wolves, Renn asked: "Habu, do you have a mount suitable for them in your farm?"
He pointed to the Makulag beside him.
Habu glanced at them, nodded immediately and said, "Yes, Lord Lord, please come with me."
A group of people followed him out of the pen, to the pasture outside, and soon saw a behemoth in the grass fence in the wild.
Its body length is more than five meters and its height is more than two meters. It looks like a rhinoceros, with sturdy limbs on the ground, with a single horn like a horn, and its skin is as thick as armor. The scales overlap one after another with a large tail behind.
A few thick iron chains are tied to the abdomen to fix the saddle, and then go around from the bottom to the head, and pull it up to become the rein.
At first glance, Renne thought it was a thunder lizard.
Habu said proudly: "My lord, this is a Kodo, our unique mount for Tauren. It can carry two thousand pounds, and its speed is no less than that of a horse. The endurance is also very good. It runs continuously. He won't fall down all day, and he has a gentle personality, so he can eat forage like a normal horse."
Ren uses the eyes of soul to observe that this Kodo beast is equivalent to a middle-level monster.
There are three elements in its soul, second-level strength, third-level endurance, and charge. It is pretty good to integrate it as a magic soul.
Kodo beasts can even carry tauren, and the extreme fighters are not a problem. They are indeed very good mounts.
Rainn asked immediately: "How much does a Kodo beast cost?"
"Eight hundred golden shields." A subtle shrewdness flashed in Habu's eyes, which contrasted with his honest appearance.
Ren's eyes were stagnant, this was more expensive than many middle-level demons.
Before he could speak, Tauren explained: "Lord Lord, Kodo must be raised for three years before it can become an adult. We have to tame it and train it as a mount, and spend a lot of effort."
"A Kodo beast is really expensive to sell 800 gold shields, but I didn't make much. If the lord buys more than ten, I will give two years of after-sales service for free, and send a tauren trainer to the adult’s castle every day. Help take care of these Kodo beasts."
"My lord, how many do you think you want to buy?" Habu rubbed his hands and asked expectantly.
