After the transaction was completed in Ladored, the number of vehicles and personnel in the caravan increased significantly.
After selling the moonlight cloth and the extraordinary fruit, Loran Hill used the extraordinary gold coins he obtained to purchase a lot of local supplies. Here, cloth is quite affordable.
Looking at the pile of old carriages, the squeaking sound of the wheels rolling on the road made people worry whether they would damage the ruts.
Fortunately, the lady from the caravan cast a spell to allow the airflow to lift some of the weight, making the journey much easier.
After packing up, the convoy restarted and slowly drove towards the distant direction along the winding road.
Sitting in the carriage, the body of the carriage was shaking slightly. In front of Loran Hill stood a small silver-winged finch. The girl had just taken a small folded piece of letter paper from its feet.
'The late summer harvest is complete and now the new seeds are being sown...'
According to the brief description in the letter, the first batch of crops in Wenlani Territory has been completed, and the new crop seeds have been promoted throughout Longjiao Province, as well as the system reform.
It seemed to be going smoothly, but the end of the letter also mentioned another thing, that is, the imperial legion stationed in the province seemed to have noticed something wrong, and a team of investigators would be sent to the province to patrol and check soon.
It always seems difficult to conceal. Luo Lanxier rubbed his head in distress. At this point in time, it was necessary to organize farmers to open up a large area of wasteland. Many details could not be concealed at all.
It is difficult to explain where these seeds came from, why the farmers are so obedient and enthusiastic, what are the new systems on the notice boards, and so on.
It's better to go back quickly and see if we can tie up that search team and try to delay the exposure for a few months. When a batch of grain from Longjiao Province matures, we will have the confidence to resist the empire.
After giving instructions to several captains of the caravan, Loran Hill prepared to return early.
"The journey from now on will be left to Luna." Looking at this junior who had just graduated from Emenas, Loran Hill was still very relieved. The only thing he had to worry about was some overly greedy and bold nobles.
"No problem, I will bring the caravan and the goods back to Viscount Wenlani's territory." The girl lifted her skirt lightly and saluted, then took out an exquisite purple folding fan and placed it on her chest.
"Then I'll be leaving first. See you in half a month." The girl nodded, and then her figure turned into a breeze and disappeared into the horizon.

Returning to Viscount Wenlani's territory, Loran Hill quickly found Lubin in his office. The young man was still writing letters to the presidents of the various branches, informing them of the recent precautions and things to watch out for.
"My lord, you are back." Since there was no one else in the office, he addressed the girl respectfully.
"Well, I heard the military sent a team of investigators to Longjiao Province."
"Do you know their route?"
"I'm not sure, but they will definitely go to several major cities in Longjiao Province. Now all the branches of 'Fairywood' have noticed them." After saying that, he pointed to the map in front of him, which had some rough markings on it.
"Longjiao Province is mostly mountainous, with cities scattered throughout the canyons between the mountains. The provincial capital, Tooth Crown City, is located where several massive canyons converge."
"These investigators will probably be heading down the canyon, and if we observe along the way, we'll be able to spot them."
Looking at the map with the names marked on it, Loran Hill thought carefully.
Stop him? That would probably make people even more suspicious.
Killing? This clearly shows that there are problems in the counties of the province.
Let it go? Then the large-scale reclamation of the territory and various new systems would spread immediately.
It seemed that no matter what he did, he could not avoid being exposed, but Loran Hill remembered the news he had received not long ago.
Perhaps we can use another organization to attract their attention, such as the butler who deceived the previous Viscount Wenlani, and the Wolf Bone Alchemy Workshop behind him.
These investigators must be given something to do so they won't pay attention to the changes in the territory.
After figuring it out, Luo Lanxier asked, "Did you get any results from your previous investigation into the 'Wolf Bone Alchemy Workshop'?"
"I don't have any more specific information. I just heard that they belong to the 'Bone Gold', a peripheral organization of this force."
"Isn't this very interesting? Maybe it can become a big news." Thinking of this, Loran Hill blinked. The look on her face made people want to pinch the girl's cheeks, but unfortunately no outsiders saw it at this time.
"Don't tell them deliberately. Just let the rumors and clues be known to them casually."
"I understand. I'll arrange for someone to do it later."
"Yeah, that's it. If it doesn't work, then we can only make final preparations."
Although I don't want to start a war, if it is really impossible, then I have no choice but to start it.
All things are difficult at the beginning, but if you don’t start, there will be no later.
While Loran Hill was arranging personnel, various changes were also taking place in the imperial capital Titanniya.
A lively party is being held in Earl Pate's mansion.
On the surface, this was Earl Peter's birthday party, and many nobles from the imperial capital gathered here. However, in a dark room where many guests could not see, a group of guests put on masks and, under the guidance of a red-robed messenger, came to an underground room.
Candles burned on the inside of the wall, illuminating the faces. They moved forward quietly until they saw a young man sitting alone under a high chair at the end of the long table.
There was a dim gem lamp above the young man's head, illuminating his short black hair, while his pupils were hidden in the shadow of his short hair. His black dress was decorated with gold florals, and his hands were folded in front of him, covering his chin and face. This prince in the dark was so mysterious that many people were surprised.
