After Roning informed Ridal of this matter, he also finalized the list of professional knights and magicians who would be accompanying them.

The target of this attack was neither the Savage Tribe nor the careless Knight Squad of Swamp Town, but the Polante Bandits Group which had at least one Golden Knight.

So Ronin brought Redal, McKen and Elrond with him.

Three senior professionals: Joffrey, Rognar, and the newly promoted magician Jenny;

Two intermediate knights: Kurami and Baburin;

The four junior knights: David, Tom, Grado and Tomasz, who still have the most potential.

The remaining professional knights, led by Horn, led dozens of militiamen and divided into several groups to be responsible for the defense of several towns.

Wubei Territory is at the rear of Wushan Territory. Unless a major war breaks out, no enemy will attack here.

In the past, the biggest threat to the territory was the monsters in the Monster Mountain Range.

But with Carlos wandering around recently, any monsters with a little bit of sense would not come near here.

Therefore, the defense of the territory was basically to keep the subjects from causing trouble and to look after the hundreds of slaves that Anthony sent over every now and then.

This is not a difficult task for professional knights like Horn.

The only thing that made Luo Ning feel a little regretful was that he was afraid that he would not be able to witness this year's autumn harvest. He also didn't know whether the grain in the fields would give him a surprising yield after technological innovation and fertilizer application.

With the sound of the horse's hooves clattering, Luo Ning arrived at Ziguo Village in Sanfang Town.

The main reason why Roning did not bring Horn with him on the expedition was because he needed to take the lead in raising silkworms.

With the arrival of June, the temperature in Wubeiling has risen and is getting hotter and hotter, which is suitable for silkworm breeding.

Ten acres of mulberry fields and ten thousand mulberry trees are now green and lush, and these leaves will become food for the silkworms.

Following Luo Ning's instructions, several houses in Ziguo Village have been cleared out, and carpenter apprentices have also made enough wooden basins for the silkworms to use during this time.

In fact, this thing is most suitable to be made of bamboo strips, but there is no bamboo craftsman in Qingzhu Village, and Luo Ning has no time to study it in detail, so he has to use a wooden basin instead, which has a similar effect.

"Sir, the silk cocoons have basically hatched, and the silkworm eggs laid by the silk moths after mating are all here."

Horn pointed to several wooden basins filled with silkworm eggs laid out on linen.

Standing beside him were Leah and farmers specially hired to raise silkworms.

Luo Ning nodded and bent down to look at the silkworm eggs carefully.

They are currently as small as sesame seeds, but as they develop, the silkworm eggs have changed from their original black color to transparent, and you can even see the outline inside. I think the silkworm babies will hatch in two or three days.

"After they hatch, remember to feed them with tender leaves from the top of the mulberry tree. When feeding, remember to wipe the leaves clean of moisture, cut them into pieces and sprinkle them evenly on the food. Don't make it too thick."

Silkworm breeding usually takes about one and a half months. Luo Ning definitely won't have time to come later, so he can only give them more instructions now.

"Also, pay attention to the sleeping state of the silkworms. At this time, they usually raise their heads and do not eat or move. You should not disturb them or feed them mulberry leaves. Wait until they have completed molting before feeding them whole pieces of mulberry leaves, and use the mulberry leaves to disperse them to more silkworm basins."

In fact, Roning had told Horn all this before, and now he said it again in front of more people so that they could all remember it.

In particular, the cleaning of dead silkworms must be timely to avoid threatening the healthy silkworms around them.

There were no disinfectants or medicines to prevent infection in this world. Horn and his companions were raising animals for the first time, so the best way was to spread out their operations.

In addition to the good hatching of silkworms, good news also came from Master Daen, who also moved to Ziguo Village.

Master Craftsman Daen combined the suggestions Roning made last time with reference to the structure of the waist loom used by tailors such as Leah and made detailed modifications to the pedal loom.

After several months of continuous improvements, Wu Beiling's first loom finally made a breakthrough.

There are no problems with its mechanics and usage. We only need to deal with the two functions of threading the reed and the weft, and it can basically be handed over to Leah to use.

Luo Ning praised the other party greatly and wished him a breakthrough to become a master craftsman.

At the same time, while continuing to improve it, use this loom as a template to transform it into a loom suitable for the production of linen and wool.

After all, silk, linen and wool are different materials. The structure of the looms has something in common, but there are still differences in the details.

For example, flax fibers are relatively coarse, requiring greater tension and stronger mechanical structures to handle and weave;

Silk, on the other hand, is relatively soft and requires more sophisticated mechanical structure and tension control.

Now that we have the silk loom, it should only be a matter of time for the craftsman Daen to improve the linen loom on it.

After the loom is produced, Roning can consider selling it or opening a weaving factory to cash in.

If we adopt the method of selling looms to raise cash, it will surely attract others to imitate it, and there is no certainty how big the market will be by then.

Just like the curved plow, Luo Ning chose to sell it to Wushan Fort in one go.

After Wushanbao sold it a few times, it could no longer be sold because the lords who did not buy it had already obtained imitations through their channels. Although it also cost some money, it was much cheaper than buying it from Wushanbao.

If Roning were to sell looms, he might also face this problem.

If we take advantage of the fact that there are no looms in the outside world and Wubei Territory has looms, and open a weaving factory in Wubei Territory, collect the flax, wool and other resources of other nobles in Wushan Territory, process them quickly, and then sell them at a relatively low price on the market, can it bring great improvement to Wubei Territory's financial problems? Luo Ning has been thinking about this matter since he left Master Daen. Until he met Chahar, he handed the issue of the weaving factory to the newly appointed financial officer.

"Master, your question really makes it difficult for me!" Chahar frowned.

Since taking up the position of financial officer of Wubei Territory, he has been both happy and worried.

The good news is that he is deeply trusted by the lord, and all the money management matters are entrusted to him;

What worried him was that there were too many places in the territory that needed money. Sometimes one expense would cost hundreds of gold coins, and his hands were shaking when he took the money.

There was another thing that worried him even more, and that was the problem of storing gold coins.

Even though the castle is guarded by guards, even though the gold coins are hidden in secret passages and hidden rooms, even though ordinary people can't find them...

But he still went to bed in fear every day, afraid that all the gold coins would be gone when he woke up. How would he explain to the lord? "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. You can learn."

Luo Ning said earnestly: "Didn't I raise your salary? You can go out and find a business teacher to learn how to do business. If you don't have enough money, tell me and I will sponsor you to study!"

Having said that, his tone changed to a stern one.

"You are still young. If you retreat when you encounter difficulties, how can you make progress in the future?"

"Look at Wilson. How did he rise from a civil servant to a government official? He never complained to me that things were difficult!"

Chahar lowered his head and nodded continuously, silently thinking that the master was right and what the master said made sense.

Luo Ning walked up and patted the other person on the shoulder: "Do a good job, Chahar, and don't let me down. I always believe in you!"

Chahar's eyes suddenly filled with tears: "Don't worry, Master, I will definitely work hard!"

There are many things, big and small, in the territory, but in addition to controlling the general direction, Roning has learned to let go of the small things.

This is not only to cultivate the abilities of his subordinates in preparation for the future, but also for his own better life.

Now that you've traveled through time, you can't be busy like a dog every day, right?

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was almost June 12, the day for the Wushan nobles to hold a meeting.

Ronin rode on Carlos a day in advance and landed on the back mountain of Wushan Castle in the night. (End of this chapter)
