I'm working on infrastructure in Xihuan

In the eighth year of traveling, Lucien finally got a piece of land.

As the third prince of the Central Empire, his cheap father AKA Emperor Willros bestowed upon him land, a title, and the new surname "Vilvid" at his 16-year-old coming-of-age ceremony.

Then Lucien passed out.

——It would be inhumane for a patient with a high fever to wear a dress that weighed more than ten pounds for a whole day, and the hall of the temple was ventilated from all sides and the floor was cold, and the buzzing noise of tinnitus made him feel like he had a headache and wanted to vomit It's already a shame to be able to last until my father is forced to pass out, okay?

Before he fainted, Lucien vaguely heard the cold electronic sound of [City Construction System Loading Complete]. Before he could figure out the specific meaning, a light flashed in front of his eyes, and he completely lost consciousness.

Although most people think that the poor prince fainted because he couldn't bear the blow.

After all, bestowing a surname means that he has been demoted from the royal family, not only kicked out of the line of succession, but also kicked out of the family, while bestowing land and title means leaving the imperial capital to go to the fief, and maybe he will never come back in this life Chance.

In other words, it was a decent exile.

When Lucien woke up from a coma, he vaguely heard a low sobbing sound outside the compartment, and he recognized the voice of the head maid beside him, Anna.

Anna has been serving "Lucien" by his side since he was born, and in my impression, she is a thin and mean woman.

The other attendants around Lucien hated her, describing her as "creepy" and "gloomy old widow".

However, she was very good to "Lucien". Regardless of the original body's memory or Lucien's personal feelings after traveling, Anna behaved more like a mother than the original body's mother who died young.

So she would cry in the cubicle, like a mother crying for her child, the hoarse voice was heartbreaking.

Well, Lucien expressed his remorse in his heart, and buried himself deeper in the quilt—please forgive him for not being able to empathize with this poor woman at the moment, and from the moment he opened his eyes, his heart was filled with bright happiness like Because the things of hope are full to the point of overflowing, the soul is so light that there is no room for negative emotions.

A translucent light screen floated and flickered in front of his eyes, and Lucien finally realized that what he heard before he passed out was not tinnitus but the sound of electric current, reminding him that the golden finger that had been pretending to be dead in the depths of his consciousness for eight years was finally revealed. The coffin rises.

[Hello, welcome to the city construction system. 】

Lucien had a piece of land, so the system was activated.

His immediate future finally has an interesting option other than lying down and dying.

The air was sucked into his lungs, the wheezing made a noise like a broken bellows, and the wheeling turned into a smooth breath.

He was no longer so weak and tired, and his headache eased to a tolerable level. With the awakening of the system, Lucien felt his body "better" for the first time.

Physical changes are more impactful than the territorial data that the system spreads in front of him, and becoming healthy is more attractive than any pie that the system draws for him.

Countless money, the power to dominate the mainland, beauties who overwhelm the country...

Who cares about that shit in a world where it's hard to catch your breath.

But as long as Lucien manages his territory well and increases the [urban development] on the system interface, then a small step in the urban development progress bar is a big step forward in his quality of life.

He will be able to run, jump and live like a "normal person".

Lucien felt that he was so excited because of this knowledge, he quickly looked at the territory data a few more times before calming down.

The territory data on the system interface is divided into three basic branches of agriculture, industry, and commerce, and three advanced branches of culture, entertainment, and science.He was not surprised to see that the red light of the agriculture, industry and commerce data was high, not even enough to open any branch line of the entertainment department, and the overall integration into a miserable value of urban construction.

Again, he really wasn't surprised by this.

Velvet County, which was given to Lucien as a territory, was located in the northern part of the empire. He had read a few books about it a long time ago, and after a little recollection, he was generally mentally prepared for the situation in the territory.

Backed by the majestic and steep Moon Mountains, Velvet County is where the moon falls in myths and legends.Ferocious monsters and precious medicinal materials are hidden in the dense forests of the Moon Mountains, and it is a gold digging ground for adventurers and mercenaries.

——Lucien marked his territory with key words such as "mixed personnel" and "poor security situation".

The White River, where the moonlight gathers, rushes down from the Moon Mountains, and the river gave birth to the Huor people.Those silver-haired, golden-eyed foreigners lived in the forest by the White River, and their bodies were as light as birds.

Holborn means bird in the ancient Chinese language.

A legendary white bird that flew out of a moonlit river.

The most famous of the Hall tribe is the Hall mercenary, the best mercenary on the mainland.They are good and cheap, brave and good at fighting, and the bard smears the name of the white bird with the breath of blood and war.

It can be roughly compared to the less peaceful elves?

So Lucien added hidden dangers of ethnic (race?) conflicts to his territory, as well as the religious conflicts that accompanies ethnic conflicts—the mainstream belief in the empire is the Church of Light, and the Hall people usually call themselves the moon goddess Muenna. people.

One-third of the total population of over [-] in Velvet County is from the Hall tribe, and the remaining two-thirds of the local population also includes criminals and mastered slaves who were exiled here.

Exiles are also a potential factor of social instability, and slaves are the private property of their masters. According to the current laws of the empire, even if Lucien is the lord of this land, he does not have the right to freely dispose of slaves with masters.

Unfortunately, there are many manor owners in Velvet County, and the fields are circled on the left and right on the map. Just by looking at the map, one can imagine how many obstacles the road to agricultural value will encounter.

Lucien took a deep breath, digested the bad news one by one, and then clicked on the subdivision of agricultural, industrial and commercial data.He read and read each row and column of the data carefully, and it was clearly written "poor" between the lines.

His cheap father personally chose this territory for him, and it was probably the limit he could have as a useless and sick child with no talent in this messy world of sword and magic.

He cannot use magic, nor can he practice martial arts.

Tsk, if I knew it earlier, I should pay more attention to the poverty alleviation policy of the motherland.

Lucien wrapped the quilt around his body again, and turned the system interface backwards.

After turning over the territory data that poured cold water on people, the system exchange page that makes people draw cakes is at the back.The exchange page is divided into six categories like the territory data. As long as the data of a certain category of the territory reaches a certain value, the corresponding exchange item can be unlocked.

It is not known exactly what to exchange for it. Velveer's value is so low that he can't unlock anything, and all Lucien can see is the product preview.

The scope of the system's exchange items is limited to the world before Lucien traveled. Considering the many differences between the two worlds, after the exchange, it needs to be improved according to local conditions before it can be put into use.

And some seem to have no practical value in this world, such as the [Mushroom Planting Method] that can be unlocked when the agricultural value reaches [-]-the "mushrooms" in this world are called Xingguzi, and there are many types that can run and jump, not "plants" But "animals", it is impossible to grow them on rotten wood.

Light footsteps sounded outside the door. Lucien closed the light screen in a blink of an eye, and turned his head to meet the slightly red eyes of the maid Anna.

She had washed her face and groomed her appearance, her expression was as cold and hard as if she was wearing armor.

"Good day." Lucien twitched the corner of his mouth, speaking softly and slowly, "I hope I didn't oversleep."

"...Your Highness, Your Highness..."

Anna covered her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes.

……

"..."

To pierce the false happiness of a time traveler, all that is needed is a court physician invited by Anna.

Prayer for light + bloodletting therapy are two-pronged, and a bottle of healing potion successfully recalled Lucien's painful memories of the world's medical technology.

Perhaps it is because the existence of magic has curbed the development of science. The medical technology in this world is quite backward. Basically, bloodletting + prayer can cure all diseases. Regardless of internal medicine and surgery, healing potions and church holy water are uniformly prescribed.

Lucien was leaning on several pillows, half of his soul seemed to be blowing in the wind outside.He just failed to resist the bloodletting therapy, and the last bit of blood was taken away from his face with a knife.

"May the light protect you, Your Highness Lucien." Anna walked into the room with a thick blanket in her arms. She carefully covered Lucien with the blanket, and knelt down to tidy up the corners carefully.

The blanket is new, this pure white soft luxury is a gift from Lucien's elder brother Luthers, the vase with flowers beside the bed is also new, and the gem-studded decoration is from Lucien's second brother Rufar hand.

"His Royal Highness Rufar is coming to visit you." Anna whispered, and before Lucien could answer, the guests waiting outside had pushed the door open and entered.

It can be said that there is a sense of self-management.

Lucien gathered the blanket, and smiled at the young man sitting beside his bed.

His cheap second brother Rufar is a mid-level warrior, tall and handsome with brown hair and blue eyes, many maids in the palace are quite fascinated by him.

"You really don't look well, my poor Lucy." Ruffal raised his hand to pat Lucien's shoulder, but finally he silently dropped his hand on the quilt, making a few muffled pats, " I still have some healing potions, I will bring them to you later, seeing that you are so thin that only bones remain, I was frightened to death at the coming-of-age ceremony, how can you get the territory like this, or—”

He paused, swallowed the follow-up chatter under Lucien's gaze, and turned the topic to his main purpose, "Well, Velveer is so far away, and they are all savages who don't know how to behave. The market bought some good slaves for you, you should take them with you to be safe."

The slaves bought in the arena are basically strong and have good combat effectiveness, and they are valuable and top-notch among slaves.

Lucien smiled gratefully, "Thank you for your generosity, Your Highness."

Well, he is not considered a royal family anymore, and his own brother also has to use the honorific title.

"Call me brother." Rufar put his hand on Lucien's face, pinched the boy's fleshless cheek, "Just don't let outsiders hear it."

Lucien just smiled, and rubbed Ruffal's palm innocently and obediently.

Since his second brother is so proactive in giving away a free wave, then the cheapest brother Luses should also rush to do charity later.

Boys have a strange desire to win.
