Chapter 85: Harvesting Talent

Chapter 85 Harvesting Talents
“If all the resources consumed before were used in one place, any sub-base is afraid that it would have been molded long ago, instead of being laid out everywhere like this now.” Owen said with some emotion, but he knows that there is no medicine for regret in the world, and this kind of realization is to stand on the basis of the present, earlier he can not cope with the unexpected situation of the bottom, the slightest twists and turns he will have to run away, so he chose to desperately open the sub-base, just for the sake of running away when there can be a place to land, there is a turn of the capital, it can be said that the original intention of the rather humble.

In his last life, how did the rabbit’s habit of drilling holes in the ground for civil construction come about, but not enough hard power, not enough mushrooms.

Nowadays, after having the strength to resist certain risks, it is necessary to focus resources on making breakthroughs to accelerate the development of a certain aspect, which is an inevitable change in the development trend.

Moreover, the iron ore of the Bison Territory, the wood of the Wood Walls, the stone of the ruins, and the food of the Goblin Town are all indispensable to the development of the territory, so Owen’s previous practice of using a hammer in the east and a stick in the west is not wasteful, but is a resource point that must be opened for the development of the territory.

Thinking of this, Owen’s mood instantly got better, his thoughts were no longer so extreme, because looking at it this way, he didn’t seem to be so wasteful.

Although the development of the territory had been constantly fluctuating, but thankfully, the progress value was constantly recovering, the only limitations Owen had was the speed of progress value recovery and the upper limit, so as long as he didn’t die he had countless opportunities to make mistakes.

For entrepreneurs, there is no better condition than this, after all, as long as the funds are constantly, entrepreneurial failure is nothing, failure is the mother of success, more stepmother is also a kind of power.

Of course, limited by the speed and upper limit of today’s progress value recovery, coupled with the continuous expansion of the territory, and then over-reliance on the system will seem a bit overwhelming.

Even if the speed of progress value recovery is accelerated again, it is still far from enough for the more and more huge territory, in the future, just the population conversion will occupy a huge share of progress value, or long-term, not to mention that he also opened a bunch of sub-bases, it is impossible to ignore it.

Owen realized that he had to make some changes, find a way to utilize the progress value more effectively, and treat the use of the progress value as a trigger to activate the development of the territory instead of the main force.

In addition, the growth of their own strength must also be put on the agenda as soon as possible, yesterday was almost riding wasted, even if the magic potion tonic soup effect is good, but also can not be so tortured themselves, and drink too much urine and sleep, easy to daytime trance.

Owen decisively ignored some of his own problems, coughed lightly, and then came to the hall.

The luncheon is not complicated, because Owen does not like complexity, and when facing the three people in front of him, there is no need for him to decorate himself with complicated and tedious noble etiquette, not to mention that he is the biggest here, of course, he has the final say.

“Try the white fish and snow crab, this is the specialty of the North Boundary River, you can’t eat it anywhere else.” Owen didn’t eat and drink, many times he just tasted a few mouthfuls, more often than not he was there shaking his red wine glass and pretending.

“That was delicious!” Corenth said with a fluttering brow, completely forgetting that white fish and snow crabs were simply the regular ingredients of the territory, and that his own wife made them twice a day for three days, so if it wasn’t for the variety of spices that went along with them, any more tasty things would have gotten tired of eating them.

However, Howard’s father and son are truly praised, because they really have never eaten.

If you want to transport the aquatic products of the North Boundary River to the border of the empire, even if the horse is fast and furious, no ten days and half a month is not to think, after all, along the way there is no stagecoach stop, can change the horse is not to change the person.

But for such a long time, and then delicious aquatic products should also become stinky fish and shrimp, so the first time to eat the two people are eating heartily.

Owen shook his glass of red wine, but was actually observing the attributes of the three people.

Name: Kerens, Age: 34, Occupation: Noble/Swordsman, Fighting Value 400/400.

Command 30, Force 40, Intelligence 50, Politics 35, Charisma 50.

Specialty: quick mind.

Skills: Elementary Fighting Spirit.

Name: Howard, Age: 39, Profession: Knight/Swordsman, Fighting Spirit 550/550.

Stat 50, Force 55, Intelligence 35, Politics 30, Charisma 35. Specialties: primus, guarding the heart and restraining the mind.

Skills: Intermediate Fighting Spirit.

Name: Hogg, Age: 17, Profession: Warrior.

Stat 20, Force 25, Intelligence 15, Politics 5, Charisma 15.

Specialty: Primus.

From the attributes of the three people, although Corenth’s attributes did not reach the passing line, but not too big and not too small is a talent, especially intelligence and charisma attributes stand out, very suitable for external personnel, such as reception, business, intelligence and other work can be competent, even if the territory is expanded ten times, there is still a place for him.

The newly introduced talent Howard also does not have the attributes to reach the passing line, but his specialties are good, prima donna means that he is not only brave, but also good at commanding battles, otherwise it will only be described as brave.

In addition to guarding the heart to restrain himself good ah, only to guard the heart of the people can withstand the temptation, that is to say, he is worthy of trust.

Hogg’s age is not too old, the potential can not be seen, but even if it is not as good as his old man, honed for a few years, as a small town sheriff is still not a problem.

An outwardly versatile person, a qualified officer, a reserve talent, Owen smiled with satisfaction.

“Baron Kerens, you have done a good job during this period of time, no matter the serfs you brought back, or the intelligence you collected, it plays an important role in the development of the territory, very good, this is your reward, you can collect it in a while at Maya’s place.” Owen took out the note he had prepared long ago and handed it to the grateful Corenth.

Because the territory lacked a commercial base, there was no place to spend the money, so Owen didn’t take out money as a reward, but rather contribution value, a reward that was only limited to the territory’s use.

With this note, Collens could choose what he needed from the territory’s treasury, including clothing, decorations, furniture, spices, weapons, armor, horses, and even soldiers and servants, but only land was not included.

This did not surprise Corenth, for he was keenly aware that the lord was on the path of dictatorship.

In fact, both the Emperor and the great nobles of the Empire now wanted to be exclusive, rather than follow the tradition of dividing up the land and power in their hands.

Initially, the feudal system was created because everyone was starting from scratch, the so-called emperor and the great nobles were more like big brothers, seemingly powerful, but in fact all relied on the small groups under them to support, if not these small groups to help support them, they are only a larger group.

So in order to appease their men, consolidate their territory, and defend themselves against foreign enemies, they divided up the land around them and let their men contribute money and effort to govern their territories, and they only had to pay their taxes and serve in the army on time.

The advantage of this is to be able to put all the manpower and resources at hand into the most valuable land, and at the same time get a barrier, after all, want to hit their territory, you have to occupy the land of the surrounding minions first.

There was no need to waste manpower and time to manage and collect taxes, and when things went wrong, the minions would bring their own food to help, which is why the feudal system was so prevalent in the first place.

Those who only knew how to seize power but not to release it, because they could only control a limited amount of land, coupled with the fact that their subordinates could not get the benefits of the feudalization, they were naturally unwilling to work hard, which led to the disappearance of the monopoly system for a while.

However, nowadays, the emperor and the big nobles want to take the land and power into their own hands, but because of the tradition and the fear of collective rebellion, they use more secretive means.

But in the Northland there is a basis for sole power, after all, here is still a blank sheet of paper, so for the lords to choose sole power, Kerens is not surprised.
