It was a very, very sunny day. The sun was shining brightly and there was not a single cloud in the sky.

Pompeii and his son crossed the deep forest road and returned to Pompeii territory.

When I saw the towering walls of Pompeii in the distance, I turned my head to look at the large tracts of farmland around it and the village vaguely visible in the middle of the farmland.

When I heard the sounds of cocks crowing and dogs barking.

Luther felt extremely happy.

Back again, my Pompeii.

If one has a good home, who would go out to explore the world? Everything Luther did was for the good of Pompeii.

Only when his home is settled and comfortable can he enjoy life leisurely.

Hey, Pompeii.

However, Pompeii is now just a shell, and there are not many residents inside, so when Luther stepped into the city wall, what he saw were empty streets, just like a ghost town in his previous life.

After entering the city, Pompey and his son separated. Old Thor was eager to settle down in the castle, then went into the forest, chose a remote place, and prepared to go into seclusion to practice.

And Luther went to the City Hall.

The city hall was just like usual, with officials coming in and out, and basically no citizens, it was as deserted as a ghost. Luther greeted many officials along the way before reaching the mayor's office on the second floor.

"Welcome our great Pompeii Knight to return triumphantly." Lulu was busy handling official business at the table. When he heard footsteps, he looked up and saw that it was Luther. He quickly stood up to greet him, gave Luther a big hug, and said exaggeratedly.

Knight Commander Mr. Stone had already sent out the family knights and guards to transport supplies, and the news naturally reached Lelouch's ears.

Although victory was expected after hiring mercenaries to wipe out the bandit gang, the news was still exciting.

Lelouch was delighted.

Because he won’t have to worry about ghost towns anymore.

"Don't be happy too soon. Some things require 50% effort, but 50% other forces." Luther happily hugged Lelouch, then let go of Lelouch, gently patted the senior on the shoulder, and said meaningfully.

"I understand that legends are not created in a day. They need to be passed down for a long time before heroes can become legends. Since we have wiped out the Autumn Wind Thieves, Pompeii's reputation must rise, so publicity is inevitable. But how do you plan to promote it?"

Lelouch smiled and nodded, obviously understanding this truth.

Luther smiled and pulled out a chair, sitting down properly, and then said, "Mr. Mayor, use the network you have left behind to recruit a large number of bards, and do a lot of publicity work on the fact that Pompeii and the Sabertooth Tiger Mercenaries wiped out the Autumn Wind Bandits, to prove the military strength of the Pompeii family. And by the way, the housing prices in Pompeii are low, and we are in urgent need of a large number of craftsmen, practitioners, and all kinds of residents. No matter who they are, as long as they have a skill, they can find a job in Pompeii."

"As for the military propaganda of our Pompeii, you can promote that our lord, the Pompeii knight of this generation, Sol, Pompeii is a genuine high-level knight. In our territory, there is a mysterious wizard sitting in charge, and there are no less than thirty family knights. The defense of the territory is very strong."

"False advertising?" Lelouch narrowed his eyes, but did not reject it.

As for advertisements, there is some truth in them.

But in fact, these propagandas are still useful. Not to mention the matter of old Thor being a senior knight, Luther is currently training a wizard lady, and a pair of them.

As for the guard knights, Luther also has plans to expand them, but it has not been carried out yet.

But there is no need to say all this to Lelouch at this time. As the mayor, all he needs to do is follow orders and develop the city.

"It's propaganda, so there must be some truth to it." So Luther said casually.

"Okay, I will recruit a group of bards and have them package and publicize these things."

Lelouch readily agreed.

This matter can come to an end. After all, it is not Luther's job next, but the job of Lelouch, the mayor of Pompeii.

All Luther had to do was sit on his throne and wait for things to bear fruit.

So Luther talked to Lelouch about another thing. Luther said, "By the way, I have reached an agreement with the Sabretooth Mercenaries. If the Sabretooth Mercenaries make any moves in the Endless Forest in the south, they will set up an outpost near our territory. I think this is a good idea. After all, there are countless adventurers and mercenaries who enter the Endless Forest every year. But in the past, although Pompeii was located on the edge of the Endless Forest, we didn't have the conditions. But now we have the conditions. I think we should add some facilities to deal with adventurers in the city, such as hotels and taverns, and increase the production of weapons. But this is all Pompeii's business. What you need to do is to do some publicity to attract those adventurers."

This is similar to Luther's previous propaganda, but it targets different groups of people. The former is ordinary residents, while the latter is adventurers who are mainly civilian knights.

The former is of course the foundation, but the latter is also a big piece of cake, and Luther feels that it should not be given up.

"Okay, I'll plan it out," Lelouch said.

Luther told Lelouch all the thoughts that had accumulated over the past few days, and he felt much more relaxed. So Luther crossed his legs, leaned back in the chair, and changed into a very comfortable posture.

I asked casually, "By the way, this year's autumn harvest should be about to start. How are the people feeling? Are they happy?"

"Very happy." Lelouch smiled happily, looked at Luther with admiration, and then said, "Because of the manure fertilization, the land has increased its yield. And because of the oxen and plows, this year the leaders have generally opened up more than twice the amount of land as before. The income of the farmers this year is very considerable, and Pompeii's tax revenue will also be considerable."

At this point, Lelouch still has two words to say about Luther: "admiration". He is like a man with a Midas touch. With just two small ideas, he has brought about earth-shaking changes in the entire agricultural industry.

If these two ideas were promoted to the entire Kingdom of Prussia, it would bring many benefits. However, neither Lelouch nor Luther was willing to promote this agricultural production technology.

Because I can, I add value.

If everyone knows it, then it has no value.

Of course, the secret can't be kept secret for long, as the truth about wealth cannot be hidden. But the secret should be kept secret for as long as possible, in short, let Pompeii get rich first.

,.Please give me a recommendation vote.
