Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 733 - 69: Powerful Night Wanderer Corpses and Generous Transaction Returns

The fact that they could devour several pounds of black bread in one meal was a given, so they still needed to mix the grain with crushed stones to ensure they wouldn’t go hungry in the future.

However, as long as they could hold out until the Hesse Territory welcomed this harvest season, their predicament would be completely resolved. The Hesse Territory, as the most fertile granary on the border, produced enough food to not only meet the needs of both humans and dwarves but also continue selling to the outside.

At the same time, as the Gray Rock clan lifted the famine state and began intensive mining efforts, the military strength of the Hesse Territory would continue to grow.

After purchasing Vibranium Rune Armors from the Gray Rock clan, the number of Vibranium Rune Armors under Su Li’s command finally surpassed a squadron!

In fact, by the end of last year, the territory had produced and repaired 120 sets of Vibranium Rune Armor, an achievement that the Minister of Industry and the Masters of Forging highlighted during meetings.

However, a significant portion of these 120 sets was sold to the Corona Knight Order, with Su Li remembering that this knight order alone bought 14 pieces. Subsequently, the territory released another batch as specialty products, boosting the territory’s reputation. Thus, the secular army of the Hesse Territory had less than 100 Vibranium Rune Armors.

After two months of production this year, along with trades with the Gray Rock clan, Su Li finally had a squadron of Rune Armor Knights under his command.

Currently, the Half-Lion Griffin Knight Order in the territory had completed its re-equipment, generally armed with perfect-level weapons, which is equivalent to golden combat experience, golden swords, golden armor, and golden shields of super elites.

They were just waiting for the Sun Flame Horse Armor to be re-equipped, so that when they charged, they could be enough to shatter two or three squadrons of enemies. Beings like goblins, goblins, and inferior horned beasts didn’t even have to be deliberately slaughtered; the sheer presence of superior soldiers would induce fear, causing them to flee in terror.

After the meeting with Gesen ended, Su Li hosted a banquet to entertain them, and the two parties officially parted ways.

The main reason was that Gesen was in a hurry to return to the fortress with the grain; though his treasury was indeed richer than Su Li’s, gold, silver, and ores couldn’t fill stomachs.

This showcased poignantly that if wealth couldn’t circulate, it was just a pile of scrap metal.

This is also why every territory extremely values commercial trade exchanges, as it truly can greatly promote the prosperity of a territory.

Therefore, if the Blue Mirror Territory dared to blockade the border and doubled the tariffs, war would inevitably break out!

With this pressure, Su Li took a brief rest and then energetically proceeded to today’s last agenda item, preparing to head to the Hesse Gryphon School of Engineering.

The improvements in gunpowder technology here could effectively enhance the power of the Hesse Territory’s artillery, and Su Li was also curious about what special significance Oliver, the iron-fisted prime minister dedicated morning and night advancing this School of Engineering, saw in it.

It was a project that Oliver had been advancing since he entered the territory, a fruit that he cultivated painstakingly.

It is also the most sacred place of the Virena Church, much like how the holy land of the Dawn Goddess Church is the farm and pond in the suburbs, and the altars of the Lanode Church are the brothel and casino, then undoubtedly the holy place of the Church of Learning and Justice is the academy, university, and library.

Understandably, this high-grade building, the Virena Church’s holy land costing tens of thousands of Golden Crowns, would also produce a series of powerful effects.
