After depositing the 200,000 glittering gold coins that Yuri brought into his private vault, Krober immediately continued to devote all his energy to the construction of the two territories.
It is worth mentioning that just some time ago, on Black Feather Island, Krober happily spent his first birthday as a lord.
On the birthday, Clobert allowed the people in the territory to have half a day off, and everyone was allowed to come outside the castle to receive an egg or half a pound of bacon.
However, this birthday brought some bad experiences to Kroeber.
After his birthday, Kroeber, now seventeen years old, was bombarded with pressure from old man Foster to get married.
You know, in this world, the so-called noble children must be engaged to other noble families before holding their coming-of-age ceremony.
However, Krober's situation was different. As soon as he became an official knight, he was adopted into the Golden Rose Family.
Soon after, he hurried to St. Peter's Castle to guard the Grand Duke, and had no extra time to think about the engagement.
As for now, it’s not that Krober completely despises other noble ladies, but he really has no interest in them.
After all, for Krober, instead of wasting his precious time on these boring things, he might as well spend more time practicing, or simply patrol his territory more often.
And tell the truth.
After spending such a long time with Grand Duchess Veronica, Krober's vision has become extremely picky, and young ladies from ordinary aristocratic families are not in his eyes at all.
He suddenly understood the feelings of those who were urged to get married in their previous lives.
It is indeed quite painful.
Let’s get back to the topic.
Over the past period of time, Amethyst Island has experienced large-scale investment in funds and materials, and now the port of Amethyst Island has been successfully completed.
At this moment, the island's labor force is concentrating on land reclamation and simultaneously advancing the construction of other facilities.
Krobe's castle remained the same as before. He had previously transferred most of the labor force to the port construction project, resulting in his castle still maintaining its original foundation form.
However, with the port completed, Kroeber was finally able to make the construction of the castle a priority.
Looking at the plan presented to him by Hyer, Krober smiled with satisfaction.
After this period of adjustment, Hyer became more and more proficient in the management of Amethyst Island.
Hyel carefully planned the entire Amethyst Island into five major areas.
First was the completed port, which Krober named Amethyst Harbor.
According to Hyer's proposal, this place will be developed into the commercial core area of Amethyst Island.
The second part is Krobe's castle.
Because of its unique location as an island in the middle of a lake, there is no need to dig moats or other facilities, so the construction period is greatly shortened. It is also the place where the lord Krober lives, so it is placed in the second part.
The third part is the agricultural base with the Dragon Blood Basin as its core. The surrounding forests have been cut down and transformed into fertile farmland.
Moreover, all the elf bugs and elves owned by Krober gathered here, and Hyel led the slaves to start a new round of sowing work.
With the help of the elves, I believe that new food will emerge from the ground in a few months.
As for the fourth part, it is where the main body of the town is located.
Haier not only completely demolished the original buildings of the Sea People tribe, but also made comprehensive plans for them.
After completing the logging work in the Dragon Blood Basin and having sufficient timber resources, with the support of a large number of workers, the preliminary outline of a small town has emerged.
However, due to the large number of slaves sent there, the current town still faces the dilemma of having to accommodate several families living together in each house.
The fifth part is a building that Clobert ordered Hyer to build.
Amethyst Island Primary School.
This school is located in the southeast of Amethyst Island. It is a semi-closed educational school whose main purpose is to train officials and non-commissioned officers.
Currently, Kroeber has a shortage of officials, and the recruited soldiers lack basic military skills. They are only good at maintaining public order, but if they go to the battlefield, they may be defeated by the enemy in one blow.
The enrollment scope of Amethyst Island Primary School is mainly from the subjects of Krober.
This does not include purchased slaves and tribal people.
Only after they have passed Krober's assessment can they get a chance to become Krober's subjects.
The cultivation time is not long, about one to two years.
Amethyst Island Primary School has two departments. One is the liberal arts department for training officials, which mainly teaches writing, arithmetic, basic etiquette, diplomacy, etc. Students in the liberal arts department need to be trained in school for one year before they can be sent out to take up positions.
The second department is the non-commissioned officer department which recruits only soldiers. It mainly teaches soldiers battle formations and command, and also cultivates soldiers' individual combat capabilities and command writing skills.
This knowledge is much more difficult to teach than that in the liberal arts department, and it takes at least two years to graduate.
After graduation, these officers will be demoted to become squad leaders, managing four to five people at a time.
These officers are assessed twice a year, and if they fail, they will be demoted back to ordinary soldiers.
Kroeber's goal was very clear. He wanted to build an invincible elite army, not weak soldiers as fragile as militia.
After all, officers are the best among soldiers. They not only need to have more outstanding wisdom, but also must have stronger strength.
Based on this, Kroeber established the rules:
