"My Lord Marquis, these are the gates and walls of Lanxia City. They are all made according to your instructions." Rebella pointed to the hollow wall in the middle and said. In front of everyone, she also habitually called Lord Marquis.

, and only when there are few people, will he ask his brother to appear close to him.

Then looking at Leo's curious eyes, he continued, "Thanks to this, we can build it so quickly.

Near Lanxia City, there is still a big gap in stone materials, and stones that can be used as city walls are still scarce. Thanks to the cooperation of the Bai Ke Chamber of Commerce, large quantities of stones have been transferred every time, as well as Alama from Changhe City.

Our family also strongly supports us.

Otherwise, this stone alone will be enough to slow down our progress, not to mention there will be food and other gaps."

"Well, very good," Leo nodded, he has a system to cheat, that big stone bun, oh, this terrible name, I hope it can be worthy of his introduction!

Rebella was secretly surprised. She really didn't know why Leo would make such a choice. Just make the skin on both sides and make it hollow in the middle. This is simply a fantasy. Besides, if you really want to put stones in the middle,

, that would not save stones, and would affect the integrity of the city wall.

The solidity of a city wall built piece by piece should be very different from that of building both sides and filling the inside, right? Although this city is particularly thick, even if the kingdom's knight attacks with a lance, it will not be able to cause much damage -

—If it is really built according to the thickness of the drawing.

"Also, this is a business area. In response to your request, we have specially opened stalls of different sizes, collected rent, and strictly ordered merchants to keep their own areas clean and tidy." Rebella pointed to the central area in the distance.

, "But obviously, this business district is not very popular now.

There are still very few merchants who are willing to come to Lanxia City to develop trade. Thanks to Achile attracting a lot of caravans from time to time, we are able to collect a little tax. With all due respect, Lord Marquis, if you cancel the city entry tax, you will definitely

This is not a wise move, and you are reducing the territory's tax by 50%.

Not to mention how much wealth this is, I am afraid that many nobles have secretly had opinions about you, but for some reason they have not come forward to criticize this behavior. Moreover, if we were not engaged in the refined salt trade, the Marquis Territory would already be unable to make ends meet.

"

"Rebella, don't be anxious," Leo smiled softly, appearing a little careless, "I have prepared another type of goods this time, and I don't plan to rely entirely on Achile's caravan for these.

I will release the news that all caravans need to come to Lanxia City in person to pick up their goods. Our business district and the central area will soon become a hot spot, and even every corner will be robbed."

As for Rebella's doubts, Leo naturally understood that Rebella was not a lord after all. He didn't know how powerful Leo was in the royal capital before. Those nobles who were distinguished by the former marquisdom naturally had no idea.

Dare to make a sound.

Leo used to be in charge of the Patrollers, and he held so much power that even the Marquis Eyck family in the royal capital was uprooted by him. With such power, even if others had opinions about the Marquis, they would not.

All I can do is complain secretly, rely on my seniority, and point fingers with the attitude of an elder.

But now, even if he is complaining, he will not show up. After all, although Leo once held a high position, he was still essentially a baron. It was just that King Ulric trusted him and allowed him to take charge of the huge Rangers and Lion Knights.

Just a group.

At this time, he is the Marquis of the Fields who owns one city, two towns and four villages. He is truly at the forefront of the kingdom's aristocracy. The Marquis of the Fields is enough to make many nobles truly awe, and he has the willfulness to do anything.

Capital.

Leo has the final say on everything in his own territory, and these complaints will not appear in the future. It is a big joke to accuse a real Marquis of not being able to manage the territory.

"Really?" Rebella couldn't believe it. Naturally, it was because of the new goods Leo mentioned. There were not many good things in the world. It was unexpected that they could master a single refined salt.

Thinking that Leo did not rely on refined salt to accumulate strength, but instead dispersed his wealth elsewhere, it was really hard for Rebella to understand.

Besides, is his own lord so confident about the new goods? He wants other caravans to specially come to Lanxia City for trading? It is really unbelievable.

"Of course it's true," Leo said with strong confidence on his face, "In the future, our unique goods will be more and more, and for more goods, they can only come to our Lanxia City to pick up the goods. Lanxia City

Driven by these merchants, it will become more prosperous!"

The simplest example is that when a merchant comes to buy goods, it is impossible for him to arrive with an empty cart. That is what new merchants do. In order to maximize their profits, they will bring all kinds of goods with them when they come.

The goods were constantly sold and bought along the way, and finally they came to Lanxia City to dump the goods, empty the carriages and horses, and then load these unique goods that could only be produced in Lanxia City.

In this way, countless business travelers come here. In order to maximize profits as much as possible, they will naturally come here to bulk cargo for some goods that are urgently needed in the city. However, there are so many caravans, and it is naturally impossible for everyone to find them every time.

Chance.

In the long run, the price of goods in the entire Lanxia City will be suppressed very low, because all kinds of goods will be abundant enough. If Leo wants to collect grain in the future, he only needs to increase the price of grain slightly.

Those merchants will find that this is an excellent transportation opportunity to transport a large amount of grain to sell, and then load it into other trucks. The key to this is naturally the goods that belong to Lanxia City. They must

Make sure that when you leave Lanxia City, you will be carrying enough unique cargo.

Just like... soap, just like... refined sugar!

This was the first product that Leo thought of that could be produced. They would lure a steady stream of merchants to come here to pick up the goods, and along the way, a large number of goods would be scattered, ensuring the supply needs of Lanxia City.

Of course, how can one line of these goods alone be enough?

"How are you doing with the weapon-refining master I asked you to find?" Leo asked again.

"Lord Marquis, we tried our best, and with the coordination of the Alama family and the Bai Ke Chamber of Commerce, we persuaded three colonial masters to come and settle in our Lanxia City," Rebella said with a wry smile. After all, the masters of masters

He is a human being, and he is a good person.

How can it be so easy for them to leave their fixed residence and wander thousands of miles away?

"Forget it, take your time, there is no need to rush this matter," Leo also said with a wry smile, "It will be much easier when our reputation gradually becomes louder in the future."

In this way, without the knowledge of many citizens, the real owner of the entire Lanxia City or the entire Marquis Territory, Marquis Leo Archimonde, returned to his castle!

Of course, the current castle has also been simply decorated. As for the inside of the castle, Leo is not here, so his subordinates naturally dare not touch it without permission. However, the large open space outside the castle has been completely transformed into a well-proportioned garden. Several people

The fierce and powerful armed infantrymen of the Lion Realm, holding the sword of the Knight of the Lion Realm and wearing long chain mail robes, are in the inner circle, while the armored infantry of the Realm of the Lion Realm are all on the outside.

The entire castle can be said to be heavily guarded and even more impressive.

Leo nodded slightly, but he saw a few people in the distance wearing military swords and city guard uniforms, coordinating the travel of citizens.

"The road still needs to be repaired," Leo could tell. Although the road was newly repaired, it could only accommodate two noble carriages traveling in parallel.

I always felt that something was missing... Leo frowned slightly, and then a look of understanding flashed across his face, "Rubella, starting from today, the city guards are no longer responsible for the security of the city.

Lanxia City will set up a patrol team to investigate illegal activities in the city and manage public security in the city. The salary will be 80% of the level of the city guard. All soldiers who are irreversibly injured and unable to go back to the battlefield due to battle can be given priority to join."

"Ah?" Hearing this, Captain Kari was stunned for a moment. After all, in Pendor Continent, city security has always been managed by the City Guards. Although conflicts between the City Guards and local vendors or citizens are inevitable, they have never heard of it.

It is said that the city guard is only responsible for city defense, and then a patrol team is established.

"Okay, I will draft a plan later." Rebella nodded, as if she had discovered something, "This is a good method. At least those seriously injured soldiers can have a good place to go."

"We can't just recruit these disabled soldiers. In the future, our elite soldier team can also give priority to the patrol team. The scale of the patrol team can be expanded to prepare sufficient reserve soldiers for us." Leo added again.

…

In this way, the system of Lanxia City has changed again, and all the citizens who heard the news started talking about it.

"The city guards are no longer responsible for public security? What can we do? Then won't the city be in chaos?" Some citizens exclaimed.

"This announcement stated that a patrol team was established to take charge of public security in the city. It is different from the city guard." Some citizens seemed confused, "How come they can do this if they have never heard of it?"
