Chapter 147 Opening up medicinal fields
Fifty recruits are really exaggerated. There are only more than 400 people in Winter Town at present. Floyd and Gareth Stanton believe that recruiting another twenty recruits is enough.
If these twenty new recruits can complete the training and become formal soldiers, plus the original ten soldiers, just three teams, it is enough to ensure the safety of Winter Town, and even take appropriate respite.
"You will be fully responsible for these matters. Just contact Edwin for the temporary military camp."
David was not involved in the specific matters, and he didn't know how to train soldiers. Moreover, through previous conversations, he had discovered that this world seemed to have some special means in training soldiers, and he was very curious about it.
Wait until the two guards go to work on their own affairs: one goes on today's daily patrol; the other starts making preliminary preparations for recruiting new recruits.
David glanced at Eva beside him and asked about the pharmacist Corder.
If Floyd hadn't mentioned the pharmacist, he would have forgotten that there was one person in the town: "What is that pharmacist Coder busy with recently?"
"Mr. Corder usually walks around the town of Winter, as if he is observing the land."
"Observe the land situation?"
"Well, Mr. Corder came to me yesterday and expressed his desire to cultivate a medicine field in the south of the village." Even if David didn't ask, Eva would report this to David: "He should have been looking for a suitable place before."
"Oh! That's it..." When Corder came to Winter Town, it was still very cold and it was not suitable for growing herbs.
Moreover, Corder was not familiar with the land and climate of Winter Town, and needed to observe for a while, so there was no movement.
Now I should have completed the inspection and officially started my own work.
"You can deal with this kind of thing directly."
Eva just smiled sweetly, and then began to talk about the next thing: "Miss Sylvanas found me before and asked me about something."
"What did she ask you?"
"Things about the elves."
"Elf? Oh..." David understood why Sylvanas asked Eva about the Elf. He probably noticed that some people in Winter Town had looked at her and Leadlin with strange eyes!
Fortunately, most of the villagers in Winter Town are craftsmen from the Storm Kingdom, and there are only a few farmers from Iron Tree Fort.
Others such as Floyd, Gareth Stanton, Elias and the pharmacist Corder all come from the Royal City of Tyran.
The relationship between Iron Tree Castle and the elves is very poor, but the people in the royal city of Tilland only know some of the situations, and are not as hostile to the elves as the people in Iron Tree Castle.
If Floyd and the others were from Iron Tree Castle, they would have asked him what happened to Sylvanas long ago?
After dealing with the trivial matters for a while, David took Eva and Elias to find Corder who was wandering south of Winter Town.
"Sir." Because he accepted the recruitment of Glamorgan, Coder, like Gareth Stanton and Floyd, was loyal to David's subordinates.
In terms of subordinate relationship, it is even closer than Elias Parker next to you.
….
Elias was sent by the Kingdom of Tyran to David, not David's subordinate, he was loyal to the royal family of Tyran.
But for some reason, after the pharmacist came to Winter Town, he was treated coldly by David, and he did not really have a separate conversation until today.
"Mr. Corder."
"It's good if you call me Corder." Corder was very respectful and his posture was very low.
"I heard you are planning to reclaim a medicine field?"
"Yes, sir." Corder briefly explained. As a pharmacist, he must have a source of medicinal materials. If he is in the capital, he naturally doesn't have to worry about not having medicinal materials to use.
But after coming to Winter Town, he had to choose to self-reliance to plant medicinal materials himself. If he couldn't plant it, he could only go to the nearby big cities.
That is, Iron Tree Fort is used to purchase and stockpile enough medicinal materials.
Only in this way can he prepare various medicines to help Baron solve various medical problems - this trouble is not limited to Baron Glamorgan's own needs.
When a large-scale illness occurs in the territory, the pharmacist serving the lord needs to provide solutions and suggestions.
"Reclaim nearby?"
"Yes, sir."
David looked around. It was located south of Winter Town and directly north of Will's blacksmith shop, but it was a distance.
In terms of location, this place is a bit far from Winter Town.
"Would it be a little far from the town?" David didn't think the pharmacist wanted to play any tricks. He followed him to a remote place like Winter Town. Living alone outside the town did not do any real benefits for him.
"Mainly I want to avoid the busiest area in the town."
After Cordel explained, David understood the pharmacist and specially left a space for development to open up medicinal fields in areas that were as far as possible.
"If this is the reason, it's even more inappropriate here. It's better to go to the north." David advised Corder not to reclaim medicinal fields in the south of the town: "This place may become a residential area for new residents."
"But the north is under construction?"
Corder ran to the south because there was a large construction site to the north of the town, and only the area close to the Winter River was not harmed by the craftsmen, but he could not reclaim the medicinal fields there, because it was too close to the river.
"The edge of the Winter Forest should be very suitable."
David refers to the open space on the south side of the Winter Forest that connects from the mine to the west of the simple railroad tracks where the construction site is located.
"Well, it's really suitable there." Corder thought for a while. It might be more suitable than here, so he decided to reclaim the medicinal field there: "Sir, I heard from Knight Stanton that new villages have begun to be established nearby?"
"Yes." David looked at Corder, curious about what the pharmacist wanted to say?

"If that happens, a caravan will soon come to Winter Town."
"so……"
"Sir, I may need to purchase a large amount of medicinal materials from the caravan."
David finally understood what Cordel wanted to say. This person was about the same reason as the two knights found him: asking for money!
At the same time, he also remembered that he had never paid Coder.
….
However, what Corder needs is not his own wages, but his work expenses.
Theoretically, the funds he bought the medicinal materials must be provided by the Lord, so the medicines prepared by the pharmacist are all possessed by the Lord.
In addition to receiving the due remuneration, the pharmacist mainly comes from the rewards of the lord, and he does not need to rely on selling medicine to live.
"You can get some funds from Eva later. If it is not enough, you can ask Eva for it again."
"I understand, sir."
After coming for so long, all the people who came from the King Capital realized it.
The one who is actually in charge of Winter Town is actually the young woman Eva Mackenna. She is the chief assistant of Winter Town and Glamorgan.
But no one underestimated this beautiful woman because Eva did the job well.
Moreover, after observation, everyone found that Eva Mackenna seemed...it seemed...it was probably not the same relationship with Baron Glamorgan.
"Well, sir!"
Thinking of this, Corder suddenly remembered something important, and came to David and whispered: "Although adults are healthy and energetic, they still need to be more moderate..."
Corder also secretly handed David a bottle while everyone was not paying attention.
David took the small bottle in a daze, and then realized what Corder said meant.
"…"
A sigh of relief, new
The sound insulation of the home can't be so bad. I put away the bottle and walked back with Eva and Elias who pretended that they hadn't seen anything or heard nothing.
After obtaining permission, Cordel went directly to the north of the town, preparing to determine the location of the medicine field first, and learn what the Baron did, and first circle the place and insert a sign to avoid being harmed by the craftsmen if they move slowly.
David returned to the table in front of his wooden house. As the temperature rose, he preferred to deal with things here. Even if there was nothing to deal with, just sitting and looking at the surrounding scenery was a pleasure.
Before they could sit down, they found several people walking from a distance towards Winter Town under the leadership of Gareth Stanton. Judging from their clothes, they should be ordinary civilians.
Standing by the wooden table, waiting until Gareth Stanton brought the people to the front.
"Sir, these people are those who want to settle in Winter Town."
Gareth Stanton explained the situation clearly in one sentence. David nodded and turned his attention to these civilians.
There were four people in total, three of them were in their early twenties, and one was about twenty-seven or eight, all of them were young.
"Welcome to Winter Town."
David looked at several young people carefully and looked very thin and not very good-looking. But David did not dislike him. He believed that as long as he rested for a few days, these young people would soon recover and contribute to the development of Winter Town.
Since King Ebleson helped David promote Winter Town all over the country, David has been looking forward to people from all over the country to come and join.
He had heard before that people had come to the northern plains one after another, but few came to Winter Town.
To be precise, only one person has come so far.
Until today, I finally saw more civilians who wanted to settle in Winter Town. Maybe this was the beginning of the skyrocketing population?
When David was imagining a bright future here, Elias, who was standing by, had already introduced David's identity to several people: "The one in front of you is the lord of Winter Town, Baron David Glamorgan."
He welcomed several people again.
"Winter Town welcomes you very much. As long as you are willing to work hard, you will get whatever you want here!"
