Chapter 65: Daily Life in the Territory

“Master, is this your territory?” Chris snuggled in Su Lun’s arms and raised her head to say.

“What’s wrong, is it too small?” Su Lun looked at the town he had built, feeling a sense of pride.

“It’s quite nice.” Chris praised. As a Succubus who had long maxed out her ability to read people, she knew how to please her master.

“Master, your most loyal servant welcomes your return.” At that moment, a Goblin ran over, knelt down, and shouted. It was the Goblin Floer.

“Master, all the sugar beet seeds have been planted.”

“Ba Lun, give him the sugar beet seeds we collected this time.” Su Lun had Ba Lun hand over the sugar beet seeds for him to plant.

During this period, the sugar beet planting area had been continuously expanding. With the white sugar extraction technology, it had become an important resource for the territory.

The night passed without incident, and fifteen thousand words were omitted here…

When they woke up the next day, it was already noon.

Of course, Chris grew up very quickly, after all, she was naturally gifted.

“Master, you’re awake.” Su Lun’s movements woke Chris. The Succubus maid lay on Su Lun’s back, her arms wrapped around his neck.

“The sun is shining on your bottom, it’s time to get up.” Su Lun patted Chris’s smooth, jade-like skin.

Chris adapted to her role quickly. She helped Su Lun put on his clothes. It had been ten years since Su Lun came to this world, and this was the first time he enjoyed the noble treatment of having someone dress him. Chris even helped him wash his face and brush his teeth. When washing his face, she tried using facial cleanser. It had to be said that using facial cleanser made his skin smoother and fairer.

After getting dressed with Chris’s help and finishing washing up, he went to the dining room to eat. Breakfast was porridge, eggs, and white bread. The so-called eggs were actually waterbird eggs. There were too many waterbirds in the reeds, and many waterbird eggs were produced every day. Breakfast was prepared by a Barbarian woman, said to be the best cook in the entire territory.

Although Chris was a Succubus, she was completely different from other Abyssal Demons. In the Abyss, Succubi were among the few Demons with excellent intelligence. Ordinary Demons, even if they reached high ranks or even the Legendary Tier like Demon Overseers, were still reckless, impulsive, and disliked using their brains. Only when they became Demon Lords would their intelligence improve.

Succubi were among the few Demons who enjoyed using schemes and tricks, much like Devils. Su Lun handed over many of the territory’s affairs to Chris to handle. With a loyalty of one hundred, there was no need to worry about her betraying him.

Chris was very interested in handling the territory’s affairs. Su Lun was now tired of the daily trivial matters of the territory, so it was perfect to hand them over to Chris to manage. Starting from that day, Chris became Su Lun’s personal maid and the territory’s internal affairs officer.

After breakfast, a Barbarian Warrior hurried in. “Boss, our Caravan is back!”

“Back? How much grain did they bring?” Su Lun’s eyes lit up, and he quickly asked.

“There are twenty carriages, and another Caravan came with them.”

Su Lun was taken aback, then stood up and walked outside.

He led the Lord’s Guard to the town’s market. When they arrived at the market, they saw from a distance a large number of Goblin and Gnoll slaves unloading grain. Seeing Su Lun arrive, Ji En, who was directing the Caravan to unload, immediately ran over.

“Lord, I have successfully brought back the grain.” Ji En said respectfully.

“Was the journey smooth?”

“It was fairly smooth. Johnson and the Giant provided escort along the way, and they dealt with all the petty thieves.”

“That’s good. How much grain did you bring back?” Su Lun asked the key question.

“As per your request, all the jewelry sold was used to buy grain. There are fifty thousand jin of grain in total. Sir, I also took the liberty of buying a batch of slaves.” Ji En said somewhat uneasily.

“Fifty thousand jin of grain is enough. As for the slaves, they will supplement the territory’s population?” Su Lun wasn’t concerned about the slaves; his territory was short on population.

“Among these slaves, there are ten who know how to brew alcohol, and they brought their families with them. Lord, would you like to meet them?”

“We’ll talk about that later. By the way, what’s the deal with the Caravan that came with you?” Su Lun asked.

“That Caravan is from the Skylark Chamber of Commerce. The supplies I purchased this time were bought from the Skylark Chamber of Commerce. They heard that you successfully established a territory in the Wilderness, so they followed our Caravan here, hoping to cooperate with us.” Ji En pointed to the Caravan not far away and explained.

Su Lun nodded. He knew about this Skylark Chamber of Commerce; it was owned by Count Jacob. The Jacob family’s emblem was a skylark. Count Jacob also had a fief in the Northern Lands and was a Count with real power.

“Since they want to do business with us, let’s meet them.” Su Lun nodded in agreement.

Soon, Ji En brought over a middle-aged man in his forties.

“Good day, Sir Su Lun.” The middle-aged man bowed to Su Lun.

“Good day. Are you the representative of the Skylark Caravan?” Su Lun said with a smile.

“Yes, Sir Su Lun. I am Robert, the representative of the Skylark Caravan.” The merchant said respectfully. “Your Warriors are very brave and powerful.”

“Of course, they are the best Warriors.” Su Lun led Robert to the reception room in the market and they sat down. A servant brought tea.

“What business does your Skylark Chamber of Commerce want to do with us?”

“I heard that your territory produces Refined Iron weapons, so I would like to purchase a batch. Of course, if you need anything, you can also place orders with us. Our Skylark Chamber of Commerce has trading posts throughout the Florence Kingdom and can provide you with various goods.” Robert said respectfully.

“You want to buy weapons? Sure. The price and styles will be discussed with you later by someone.” Su Lun agreed to trade with them.

“Thank you very much for your generosity. We have specially prepared two carts of grain as a gift for you. Please accept it.” Robert kept his stance very low, probably having witnessed the strength of Johnson and his group of Barbarian Warriors on the road.

“Sir Su Lun, our Caravan also brought other goods this time. Would you like to see if there’s anything you need?”

“Make a list of your goods and send it to me. If there’s anything I need, I will send someone to purchase it.” Su Lun nodded.
