Chapter 353 Return to Boulder City



Ronin summoned all the extraordinary people headed by Elrond, as well as officials and clerks headed by Wilson and Chahar to gather in the Swamp Castle Fortress.

When he was in Shanlin Town, Roning had very few people under him, and there was enough space in the small fortress hall for people to sit down.

But now, the fortress hall of the Swamp Castle was packed with people, and even many professional knights, political assistants, etc. were unfamiliar faces he had never seen before.

These new knights who joined the territory have been very excited these two days. After all, they will appear in front of the lord. At this moment, they are looking at the lord sitting on the throne with great energy and listening to his words carefully.

Naturally, Roning first said some words like welcome to join, so that they could feel the lord's enthusiasm.

Then he recounted his experiences in Jinyu City.

The news in the Wubei Territory is still somewhat isolated. Until now, the news that Roning has become a baron of the kingdom has not spread here.

So when the followers heard the news, they immediately became excited.

The stronger the lord is, the brighter their future will be.

This was especially true for Rogna and Yusuf. They had not expected that this man, who was younger than them, would receive such treatment just by going to the royal capital.

Of course, they didn’t know that this matter was more due to the cooperation between Wushanbao and His Majesty the King.

Luo Ning did not say it explicitly, he just needed to let his followers know that Wu Beiling had a bright future.

After some encouragement, Luo Ning began to talk about the next plan for the Wubei territory.

The formation of the territory's knight squad and guards must continue.

A standard earl should have an order of knights, but Ronin is far from this standard now.

In addition, Luo Ning also focused on the planning of the territory's housing construction, road construction, agricultural development, and commercial development.

Especially in terms of business, facing the ever-increasing expenses, Ukrainian leader will need to make more money in order to feed more people and maintain more infrastructure.

The most important infrastructure is the construction of Wubei Port and Wubei New City, and sufficient manpower must be prepared in advance.

At the same time, Roning also planned to recruit adult men with good swimming skills in Swamp Town to serve as sailors, and recruit more professional knights to serve as naval combat forces.

It would be best to wait for the Reese Knights from Pointle City to arrive before starting training.

After discussing a series of plans, both the new members who had a vague understanding of the Wubei Territory and the old members who were too busy to have much time to think had a clearer understanding of the future of the Wubei Territory.

Only when the goal is clear can subsequent construction be more efficient.

The meeting lasted from the afternoon until the evening. Roning was generous and held a dinner party for these people in the swamp castle.

The former butler Chahar might have felt bad about the food and drinks in the castle when facing a dinner with so many people, but now he is the financial officer, so he just eats and drinks to his heart's content and leaves these matters to the new butler Galen.

The night was starry and the knights who had spent a happy time gradually left.

Those who had homes in the swamp town returned to their homes, while those who did not have homes spent the night in the town’s inn.

Rig and Damon, who joined the Wubei Territory as good friends, were walking side by side towards the inn.

Two of them, one is a bronze knight, who was placed in the Gray Earth Village in Sanfang Town;

The other was a senior knight who was placed in a relatively peaceful mountain town.

“Very special!”

Rig thought for a long time and said these three words.

Damon agreed with this statement very much. "I originally thought that noble lords lived a leisurely life enjoying the service of servants. Apart from practicing every day, they thought most about how to exploit the residents and slaves in the territory. But today, our young lord has refreshed my understanding!"

At the meeting, Luo Ning did not mention how to exploit farmers and increase taxes. On the contrary, he gave many benefits to ordinary people in many policies.

What Damon admires most is the long-term yet clear plans.

Roning gave him the feeling of a true nobleman. In front of him, he was as humble as dust.

"This is our chance, Damon."

Rig took a deep breath. The night wind was cold, but his mood was hot.

"The Wubei Territory needs manpower everywhere. As long as we actively serve the Lord, we will definitely achieve achievements that we never imagined before!"

"I think so too!"

In fact, it was not just him. Everyone present today was impressed by Roning's plan, and they all believed that Wu Bei would get better and better.

Roning didn't know what the people below were thinking. He just built his territory step by step according to his own plan.

Anyone who can keep up with his pace will naturally be reused, while those who cannot will gradually be eliminated.

After breakfast the next day, Ronin called Carlos to the empty helipad in the backyard.

The giant dragon looked him up and down, and said in a muffled voice: "I feel a stronger sense of oppression from the master. Your strength seems to have become stronger!"

Roning jumped onto his back and said with a smile, "Now I am a Meteor Knight and a Great Mage."

Carlos, who soared into the air, couldn't help but let out a long breath. The strength of its master increased too quickly, giving people an unreal feeling.

One man and one dragon flew towards the direction of Boulder City.

On the way, Roning told Carlos to go to the Wushan Monster Mountain Range when he had time to see if he could find the Storm Wolf.

If possible, catch two male wolves in advance, and you won’t have to worry when the black tiger is in heat.

Swamp Castle is far away from Stone City, but with Carlos's speed, he arrived above Stone Castle in more than two hours.

The former owner of this castle, Coreyon Hansen, the leader of the Fifth Knights of Wushan Castle, was captured and put on trial. With any luck, he would be several months old now.

And this huge stone fortress with a corner of its wall blown up is now in Ronin's pocket.

Corinth was many times richer than Reisen, so the Stone Castle was naturally much more magnificent than the Swamp Castle.

If possible, Roning really wanted to move this castle back to Wubei Territory, so that it would be more worthy of his current status.

Carlos slowly landed in front of the gate of Stone Castle, and Ronin jumped down and walked towards the gate.

"Stop now!"

The two unfamiliar guards at the door shouted immediately. Facing Roning who suddenly crossed the suspension bridge, they just thought it was an oversight that they didn't notice him in advance.

Roning smiled and didn't argue with the guard. "Where's Macken? Ask him to come out and see me."

The two guards looked at each other. Macken was the current manager of Boulder City. Who was this young man? Why did he call him by his name? "What do you want to do with Lord Macken?"

Just as Roning was about to explain, he saw a familiar figure walking out. It was the Knight Dandy who had followed him.

Dandy originally wanted to see what was happening here, but he didn't expect the lord to suddenly appear.

"Sir, why are you here?"

Dandy hurriedly stepped forward and shouted, "This is Lord Roning, the Count of Wubei Territory, the master of Boulder City. You two guys, can't you even remember his appearance?"

The two guards trembled immediately. They were both born as ordinary people and didn't know much about the nobility. They didn't think much when they saw Roning's silver hair for the first time.

After being scolded by Dandy, the two of them immediately knelt on one knee and apologized repeatedly, fearing that they would offend the lord and be punished.

"This is your responsibility. I see your seriousness and dedication."

Luo Ning smiled and motioned for the two men to stand up. As guards guarding the gate, their performance was qualified.

"Where's Macon, in the castle?"

Dandy shook his head and invited Ronin into the castle while explaining, "It was said that a merchant caravan was causing trouble in the city. Lord Macken led a team of knights there and left me to guard the castle."

"Knights?" Roning raised his eyebrows. Where did McKen get the Knights? If he remembered correctly, when the arrangement was made, McKen only brought Walton and Dandy.

Oh, if you include Serin, that would make it three.

Dandy explained with a smile: "They were all recruited by Lord McKen in Boulder City. Now, including Lord McKen, we have a total of twelve professional knights, just enough to form a knight team."

After hearing this, Luo Ning couldn't help laughing.

At first he allowed McKen to recruit his own team, but he didn't expect the other party to directly form a knight team.

"Go and inform McCann and ask him to come see me after he has dealt with the matter."

Luo Ning said: "Oh, by the way, let Sailin come over too." (End of this chapter)
