After seeing off Vashj and her maids, Krober planned to return to his study to handle official business.
By chance, I ran into Victor who was standing guard at the door.
"Oh, by the way, Victor, I might have to change my promise to accompany you to the Bindweed family to propose marriage. I'll write you a handwritten letter, and you can take this letter to the Bindweed family to propose marriage."
Krobo talked with Vashj for quite some time, so the news of his return on dragon had already spread throughout the Amethyst Island.
Everyone was excited about their lord's successful dragon riding.
The common people praised the lord for his strength and wisdom. With a strong lord, they could have a safe living environment.
This is also the reason why almost all the great nobles have no shortage of people.
The same is true for soldiers, nobles and officials.
But they were not only happy for Kroeber's strength, they were also excited about their own bright future.
Lord Krober successfully rode a dragon, which meant that the territory of the Amethyst Islands would be greatly expanded, and at the very least it would become a duchy.
At that time, these officials and soldiers will definitely be entrusted with important tasks and take on the task of guarding the various islands for their masters.
Victor naturally already knew the news.
"Yes, sir!"
Victor straightened his back and accepted Krober's order with a spirited look.
Krober was stunned for a moment, then gently patted Victor's shoulder.
"Hurry up and get promoted to Earth Knight, or you'll have to guard the study door for the rest of your life."
After saying that, he walked straight into the study.
————
To be honest, because Krober's own strength increased so quickly, the strength of the followers he had previously recruited was uneven.
Grandpa Foster is still lingering at the Grand Knight stage, while Shirley is progressing quite fast, but it will take a long time for her to become a Sky Knight.
Victor didn't know what was going on, but he had been a great knight for several years when Krober first met him.
There is no shortage of resources or ways to break through, but I just can't become an Earth Knight.
And Krober could feel that the relationship between him and Victor was not the same as before.
He said he could accept this.
Because this is what you must go through to become a strong person and a king.
Victor's strength is too weak, so a gap naturally exists between the two of them.
This problem can be significantly improved as long as Victor can improve his own strength.
At this moment, Haier pushed the door open and came in. He came to report to Krober on the construction progress of the Amethyst Islands during this period.
"Sit down and talk."
Ever since Krobe rode the dragon, his suspicion and insecurity had almost been cured.
So he no longer cares about such trivial matters.
"How is the recruitment of magicians in the territory going?"
This is the project that Kroeber values most.
Upon hearing this, Hyer flipped through the thick stack of documents in his hand. After a few minutes, he found the page about the magician.
"My Lord, thanks to the efforts of Magician Samuel, the Magic Research Tower has been completed.
We also recruited an alchemy magician, who is at the level of a great magician.
Two elemental magicians, the two elemental magicians are Samuel's master and apprentice, and their strengths are respectively the Grand Mage and the Official Mage. "
Grand Mage corresponds to the level of Sky Knight among knights.
Further up is the realm of magician where Ashardron, the Jade Crown, the world's most powerful magician, resides.
Krober nodded and said that he would go to the Magic Research Tower to visit the great elemental mage in person later.
"Please report on the construction of the island."
Upon hearing this, Haier turned the document directly to the first page and began to talk about the construction of the island during this period from the beginning.
Simply put, the infrastructure of the Salt Island has been completed, and the workers are now able to operate it after several months of training.
Salt Island produced its first batch of sea salt three days ago.
Hyer spent some time on Salt Island as an overseer, supervising the workers' steps from the very first step.
When the finished product was finally produced, he personally inspected the quality of that batch of sea salt as a prosecutor.
Perfect!
The unique environment, humidity and abundant sunshine conditions of the Salt Island make it a perfect place for salt production.
According to the first trade demand sent by Krobo, Salt Island has been working overtime to produce sea salt with this goal in mind.
As an agricultural base, the crops on Scorched Earth Island have already been sown, and there are enough people left to maintain the farmland. The autumn harvest will be ready in about a quarter.
Green Leaf Island was built based on the model of a livestock base. Most of the green vegetation on the island has been preserved, and the amount is sufficient to support a certain number of livestock breeding.
However, as a political, commercial and military center, the construction progress of Amethyst Island is still a long way off.
Especially after most of the labor force was dispatched to work on the other three islands, the construction progress of Amethyst Island has been very slow.
Currently, only buildings such as the Rose Castle and the port have been completed on the island.
Buildings like schools, craftsman shops, and chambers of commerce, which Kroeber attaches great importance to, are still under construction.
"First, build the Amethyst Chamber of Commerce. Most importantly, select the personnel for me. Once the production of sea salt reaches the required quantity, let Mr. Foster lead the caravan on its first trade route."
There is no way. At present, the only person that Krober can trust and has certain ability is Mr. Foster.
As for Shirley, that lazy bastard did nothing but practice and pester him. She was usually unwilling to even leave Rose Castle, let alone lead a caravan on a long voyage.
So Kroeber had no choice but to hand over this task to old man Foster.
But he guessed that no one would dare to rob his caravan.
After all, he is a "Dragon Knight" after all.
The rulers of the seven kingdoms all had some impression of him, and the nobles below did not dare to offend him, so it would be enough for Mr. Foster to just complete his first trade route to familiarize himself with the route.
All that’s left is to assign a professional businessman to be in charge of this trade route.
As for the second trade route, which is the trade route with the Naga tribe, Krober plans to provide the Naga tribe with a self-service door-to-door pickup service.
This pickup point was set up in the northeast of Scorched Earth Island, which happened to be where the Nagas passed by.
When the time comes, you can put the goods there, and after the Nagas have counted them and paid the money, you can leave directly.
It saves time and effort, and is also concealed enough.
