Lord Harland.

The currency system of the Harland Territory is the same as that of the Grant Kingdom, which is a standard system of gold and magic crystals.

The gold coins in the Dawn Plane are all smelted from gold and magic crystal powder. They can be used to arrange magic arrays and are themselves a precious resource.

This kind of currency is different from the national credit as the anchor credit currency.

The deficit cannot be solved by printing money.

Moreover, the right to mint currency is a right that the Grant royal family is very concerned about. Only the nobles above the earl can obtain limited currency minting rights.

If you want to issue banknotes with national credibility, you need to overthrow the Grant Kingdom and formulate new rules of the game.

Although the Harland family is developing rapidly, it is far from powerful enough compared to the Grant Kingdom. Naturally, it is impossible to challenge the currency rules formulated by the royal family.

Therefore, avoiding deficits is the most important task of the financial department.

Due to the heavy pressure of military expenditures, Li Cha was unable to invest in industry and education this year.

Even the profits from primary industry were siphoned off by him.

The cash income of more than 30,000 yuan for the whole year was only over 1,000 gold coins at the end of the year.

Although there is still no cash flow, the Harland Territory has reclaimed 60,000 acres of farmland this year, and including newborns, the population has increased by 17,000.

Population is the most important resource of a territory. If this year's harvest is converted into gold coins, the fixed property of Harland Territory will increase by about 200,000 gold coins.

If the territory can be defended, the population and farmland can be regarded as wealth. If the territory cannot be defended, these fixed properties will only be destroyed and robbed by the orcs.

In Fort Vic, it was getting late. Ruiz finished the work at hand and walked home without looking back.

It has been a year since Ruiz migrated to Vicburg. He was Viscount Cisse's spy who had entered Harland's territory.

Although he sent out a lot of public information over the past year, the results he achieved did not meet Vesta's requirements.

Vesta asked Ruiz to infiltrate key departments to obtain more important intelligence.

But this request, Ruiz found it difficult to achieve.

The system in Haaland Territory does not trust outsiders. The territorial decree prohibiting free movement virtually confined Ruiz to the vicinity of Fort Vic.

Many colleagues ventured deep into Harland's territory in order to obtain more secret information, but all of them disappeared without exception.

The lesson of blood made Ruiz know that if he was not careful, he would be doomed.

Ruiz has a special talent. He is one of the lucky ones who has awakened his extraordinary visual talent. His eyesight is ten times better than that of ordinary people.

For this reason, Ruiz was selected by Vesta and became a spy trained by the Cisse family.

When Ruiz got home, his wife had already prepared the food.

The staple food for dinner is wheat rice with a piece of salted fish.

Although there is a waterwheel mill two kilometers away from Vickburg, wheat can be ground into flour, and flour can be used to make more exquisite food.The bran left over from milling can also be used to feed livestock.

However, families living in poverty are still reluctant to bear this extra expense. They cannot afford flour or raise livestock.

After Ruiz entered the territory, in order not to be suspected, he married a slave girl as his wife.

His wife had three years to go before she became a freewoman.

The work of indentured slaves is very hard. Ruiz's wife needs to go to the fields to till the fields when the farming is busy, and she has to go to the quilt factory to sew and mend when the farming is not.

Indentured slaves do not receive any salary, and most of them live collectively.

Female contract slaves who set up a family only need four hundred catties of grain, ten catties of salt, three catties of brown sugar, and a set of clothes a year.

Male indentured slaves will be given an extra catties of grain and catties of liquor every month.

Such meager treatment made it difficult for indentured servants to get married and support their families.

However, most of the slaves purchased by Harland Territory had complete families, and almost all the strong male slaves took care of their families.

Elderly people, children and slaves, the territory will be subsidized, and the food distributed can ensure that they will not starve to death.

Single young and middle-aged slaves are very rare in Harland's territory.

Ruiz was a free citizen who moved from other territories. After arriving in the Harland territory, he quickly stood out because of his special talents.

First, because of his extraordinary eyesight.He was selected into the auxiliary squadron as an observer, and calibrated the orientation of heavy trebuchets.

Then he was selected by the territory and joined a secret research group.

The task of this group is to manufacture telescopes and microscopes.

Once clear glass could be produced on the territory, the group began building telescopes.

But the grinding of glass requires a lot of experience, and the mirror grinder needs to have excellent grinding technology.

None of these Harland territories.

Although a simple telescope has been manufactured in more than three years and some experience and technology have been accumulated, it is still a long way from making a microscope.

Ruiz's extraordinary vision was discovered by Harland Territory, so he was assigned to join the microscope manufacturing team.

After entering the team, Ruiz quickly played a role. His super vision can observe the subtle differences in glass mirrors. Coupled with his hard work and special talent, he became the best mirror grinder in the microscope manufacturing team. Yes, his salary has also been raised to about eight silver coins.

It was because of his high-paying job that Ruiz was able to get married and start a family.

Just as Ruiz fell asleep after eating, he suddenly felt a strong pain in his abdomen, which made him even scream.

The wife heard the noise, woke up, and asked anxiously: "Ruiz, how are you?"

"I asked you to buy flour, but you didn't listen, maybe it hurt your stomach."

Because of severe abdominal pain, Ruiz's face turned pale and he spoke intermittently.

Ruiz's abdominal pain was so severe that his wife could only get up overnight and go to the Santo's Mansion to find a doctor.

Since the three magic apprentices learned to treat minor injuries, the size of the hospital in Harland's territory has doubled.

Normally, there are four magic apprentice doctors in the territory.

Except for Adrian who is at the hospital headquarters, the remaining three magic apprentice doctors all follow the medical team and undertake certain medical missions to the countryside.

It is Richard's request to go to the countryside for medical treatment, not only to treat patients, but also to accumulate experience and improve medical skills.

Recently, the medical team came to Vickburg.

For sensational effect, they also performed a public display of surgery, cutting open a soldier's stomach and performing an appendectomy.

It was because of this scene that Ruiz's wife decided to seek help from a doctor.

The medical team is led by Wendy and includes about ten people including doctors and nurses. In addition to treating illnesses and saving people during this medical trip to the countryside, Wendy also wanted to test the medical use of a new method of ultrasonic detection.

Ruiz's wife was blocked from the city lord's palace and quarreled with the guards, alerting Griffin, the doctor on duty.

Griffin heard Ruiz's wife's story, probably judged that it was acute appendicitis, and decided to send someone to take Ruiz to the Santo's Mansion for surgery.

I have been suffering from insomnia very badly in the past few days. I can only sleep three or four hours a day. I am currently seeing a Chinese medicine doctor. I have no code and am consuming saved manuscripts. I can only update 4,000 words.
