Elva's departure did not bring waves to the Baronial Palace.

Ron was handling official duties in the territory as usual in the study. Eileen was waiting on him, staring at Ron with expectant eyes, hoping that the young master could chat with her.

There are very few entertainment options in this rural territory, so the maid who stays in the mansion for a long time can only talk and chat to relieve her boredom.

"The problem in Assam Village has been solved, but the sudden appearance of thieves in this territory is a hidden danger and cannot be left alone."

After consulting past official documents and combining it with his past life experiences in his mind, Ron finally solved half of the remaining problems.

In the end, there is still no accurate information about the group of thieves causing trouble in the territory.

"After all, communications are still underdeveloped. By the time witnesses report the news, the group of thieves will have already run away."

Ron didn't have any good ideas for this.

"Eileen."

"Master, what are your orders?" Irene looked delighted. She had been bored for a long time. The master had been working and not talking to her, and she couldn't disturb the master's business.

Ron looked at her strange look and said, "Ask Egbert to come over. I want to see the map of the entire territory."

Irene exited the room with a disappointed look on her face. After a while, Egbert came in holding a roll of maps.

Egbert opened the map, laid it flat on the table, and said: "Lord, this is the entire map of Arnold's territory. If you have anything to ask, just ask me."

Ron nodded and looked at the map.

The entire map is oval-shaped, with the western one-fifth being occupied by three towns and the baronial palace, while the remaining eastern four-fifths are covered by forests and mountains.

Looking at the map, Ron looked confused, what's the point of such a distribution? Care for the natural environment and promote harmonious coexistence between man and nature?

Egbert said: "If you include the entire territory, the scope of the Arnold Territory is completely comparable to that of the Earl Territory, but in terms of the scope of activities of the territory's residents, it is at the bottom of the Carlo Kingdom."

Ron looked at him. Egbert pointed at the large forest on the map and said, "Lord, please look at this forest. This forest is called Black Valley Forest. There are countless beasts living in the forest. Because of the complex terrain, Even experienced hunters dare not go deep. Moreover, on the other side of the Black Valley Forest is the territory of Count Claude. Count Claude is the count of the Alexander Empire. There are still doubts about the division of the Black Valley Forest. It is a historical issue between the Olivia Empire and the Alexander Empire."

Egbert made the matter very clear, and Ron understood in his heart that the water was very deep.

But it would be annoying to leave such a large piece of land unused.

If the land was developed for farming, how much output would there be in a year? Ron decided to mobilize the people in the territory to cut down trees and open up wasteland!

But one problem after another appeared in front of him. First, there was a shortage of manpower, with less than 30,000 people in the entire territory; second, there was a shortage of food, and everyone was clearing up wasteland, and no one was farming; third, the government No money.

There are many details behind it, and any mistake will cause the territorial rule to collapse.

In the end, Ron temporarily extinguished the idea.

It's just temporary. It's unreasonable not to plant something on such a large piece of land.

Ron was worried about how to develop it. His territory was in a remote location and few outsiders entered. Even the traveling businessmen were unwilling to come here because they couldn't make any money.

Land is scarce, so there is little food that can be grown, and what can be sold is either cheap or non-existent.

After Egbert learned some things about the territory, he let him go to work.

Ron thought for a long time but could not think of a way to make the territory rich. He looked at Eileen and said: "Irene, I want to ask you something, and you must answer me truthfully."

Eileen looked surprised and immediately said: "Master, you ask!"

"If there are any specialties in Arnold's territory, we have them here. Anything that others don't have, including ingredients and products." Ron explained because he was afraid that Eileen wouldn't understand the meaning of 'specialty'.

"We do, but others don't?"

Eileen's eyes lit up and she quickly replied: "Stone! Master, we have rocks here!"

Hearing this, Ron had a smile on his face, stood up, and patted her little head twice with his hand, "It's good that you can have a childlike innocence, keep it up."

After saying this, Ron walked out of the study.

Later, Ron realized that he was the one who was stupid.

——

In rare free time, Ron took a walk in the backyard of the mansion. Due to the lack of entertainment, this was the only way to pass the time.

He thought it would be nice to refresh the entries to relieve his boredom, but there was only one vacancy in him, which was the golden immortality. If he ran out of entries, Ron would cry to death.

He didn't think about writing entries for other people, as it might lead to trouble.

So for so many days, Ron didn't use his abilities. At most, he only looked at other people's character cards, what kind of entries they had, or how they liked him.

It is worth mentioning that the favorability of the maids in the mansion towards him is between 60-70, with Irene's being the highest at 80 (respect).

Egbert's favorability is 85 (trust), and he also has a green management entry. No wonder he manages the territory in an orderly manner.

Through comparison, Ron discovered that the same degree of favorability expressed different relationships. He thought about it and found that this was indeed the case.

As for Abel Guy's character card, Ron didn't look at it. The two of them rarely had the opportunity to have direct contact, so he didn't know it clearly.

Not everyone has entry attributes, and most of the maids working in the mansion do not have entries.

From another perspective, Ron believes that entries are like an innate talent. Some people are smart and some are dull.

"Alas, there are too few talents."

Ron sighed with emotion and walked to the only big tree in the courtyard. This tree was so thick that four knights needed to hold hands to surround it, but it was not high, only a little over three meters.

Its leaves are oval in shape and appear rounded. In summer, the leaves turn from green to pink, and golden-pink flowers bloom.

Mirakel, the name of this tree, translates as miracle.

I heard from Eileen that the first generation ancestor of Arnold was once an ordinary soldier. When he was about to die of thirst on the battlefield, it was the dew on this tree that saved him. Later, he achieved military merit and became a baron. That tree was transplanted here, so it has been more than a hundred years ago.

The emblem of the Arnold family is in the shape of this Mirakle tree.

Ron's thoughts were wandering and he couldn't help but reach out and touch the tree trunk. He had never seen such a big tree before, and he didn't know how long it would last.

Thinking like this, the next moment, a screen appeared in front of Ron's eyes.

Um?

He was surprised for a moment, and then thought it was natural. Since there were character cards, there must also be item cards. Ron quickly defined it, and then looked at Mirakel's information carefully.

Unlike the character card, the item card does not have a silver star logo. Correspondingly, the entire card appears green. It is still unclear why.

【Miracl】

[Picture (full body photo)]

[Entry 1: Draw (green)]

[Entry 2: Feedback (green)]

[Absorb: Strong and developed roots take root in the earth and absorb nutrients for themselves. The roots are not bad and the body is immortal]

[Feedback: Every once in a while, Mirakel will overflow its own essence and feed back to the earth]

——

Why can this tree have two entries?

This was the first thought that came to Ron's mind.

"And there are two green entries. Are people inferior to trees these days?" Ron murmured to himself. He looked at the second entry of Mira Tree. 'Every once in a while' here should mean the one that blooms in summer. Some time.

The environment of the mansion is indeed better than that outside, maybe it's because of the [feedback] entry.

Withdrawing his hand, Ron glanced at the ground around him and picked up a piece of gravel. This time the item card was white, and he immediately understood the rules of the item card.

【Ordinary stones】

[Entry 1: (empty)]

——

Seeing the empty column for entries, Ron suddenly had the idea to play with the entries.

With a thought, a blue light flashed, and a new entry appeared.

"I'll go and it will be published immediately?" Ron was pleasantly surprised. Although blue entries are not as rare as purple and gold, they are also difficult colors to produce. This time they appeared immediately, which can be said to be an explosion of character.

"Let me see what attributes it is."

[My heart is like iron (blue): The extremely hard outer shell is difficult to temper with ordinary forging methods, and the interior is comparable to meteorites and treasure-level forging materials]

"I'll fuck you!"

After reading the attributes, Ron cursed loudly and smashed the stone in his hand to the ground, and a pothole appeared.

Three seconds later, Ron dug out the pebbles and continued writing entries.

——

At night.

On the small balcony of the Baron's bedroom, Ron was wearing a loose nightgown, lying comfortably on an armchair, holding warm black tea in one hand and holding a simple silver ring in the other. The bright moonlight fell and was reflected in the tea.

The night wind is slightly cool.

Ron stared at the void in front of him and sighed. He took this silver ring from the treasure house of the Baron Mansion. It only has white quality, which means there is only one entry that can be brushed.

However, from dinner to now, he still hasn't found an entry that satisfies him.

As for the previous stones?

The entry [Powder] was accidentally displayed and self-destructed.

However, it was not without gain. Ron discovered that the entries on the 'item card' would follow a principle, and most of them would be entries about the characteristics of the item.

Just like the stones before, the entries Ron created were all related to minerals, until they self-destructed into powder in the end.

When the entry is refreshed, the attributes of the original entry will disappear and return to the original state.

But stones that have turned into powder cannot be used to write entries.

Ron drank the black tea. The taste was sweet and moist, which was in line with the taste of the nobles. He nodded with satisfaction and continued to hold the ring to write entries.

In the next few days, the ring never left Ron's side and was always worn on his hand until Egbert sent him a message.

"Lord, the interview process in the royal capital has been prepared. When are you planning to set off, so that I can arrange for people to make plans to accompany you." Egbert said respectfully.

When a lord travels a long distance, he will inevitably encounter accidents such as bandits on the way. Ron nodded understandingly and said: "You can make arrangements. The sooner the better."

He was very excited. This was not only a legal inheritance for Ron, but also a journey to another world.

Of course, he also wanted to see the prosperity of the royal capital and see if he could make his territory richer.

"It would be great if we reach a cooperation deal with the nobles of the royal capital." Ron thought beautifully.

Time passed quickly, and this day was the day when Ron was preparing to leave for the Royal Capital.

Egbert prepared two carriages, accompanied by four maids, to take care of the lord on the road, and Irene was naturally among them.

There are also six guardian knights to protect the lord's travels.

The butler Egbert needs to deal with the government affairs of the territory and cannot be together. As the knight captain, Abel should accompany him, but Ron refused his request and sternly gave him a task.

"Abel, before I come back, you must deal with the rampant thieves in the territory!"

"Promise to complete the mission!" Abel also made up his mind.

After arranging the affairs of the territory, Ron was about to get on the carriage. He saw the nervous Irene and said, "Why are you in a daze? Get on the carriage."

As a child, it’s understandable that it’s your first time traveling away from home and you’re nervous. When you arrive in the royal capital, you will forget your uneasiness after broadening your horizons.

Hearing this, Irene said: "Lord, are you really not letting Uncle Abel come with you? Or hire adventurers and magicians. I heard that you have to go through it to get to the king."

"etc!"

Ron immediately took back his foot that had just stepped on the pedal, interrupted Eileen with a serious expression, and asked: "Irene, did you just talk about adventurers and magicians?"

"Yes, Lord Lord, what's wrong?" Eileen became even more nervous, afraid that she might have said something wrong.

Ignoring her, Ron turned to Egbert and said, "The date for going to the royal capital will be decided another day."

After saying that, he quickly walked into the Baron's Mansion without looking back.
