Lord, he is not a man [infrastructure]

Tang Bo treated the king three times successively, and each time the king could feel the changes in his body.

When the third sacrificial treatment was over, the king didn't want to let Tang Bo leave, but he remembered that the servant had reported to him that the sacrificial healing technique could only be performed on the same person once every five years, and Tang Bo was eager to return.

After deliberation, the king decided to let Tang Bo go.

His body has completely recovered, and he feels as if he is at least ten years younger, and even his bald head has regrowth hair-this is what most satisfies His Majesty the King.The king believed that there should be no major problems with his health within five years. After all, he was surrounded by the most powerful pharmacist in the country, and he could be consulted for any minor ailments.

As for whether his queen and sons will be fatally injured within five years, wouldn't it be possible to invite Tang Bo over at Bailu Ling, and it is not necessary to keep them by his side.

Well, after His Majesty the King felt the greatness of the sacrificial healing technique, he also felt a little jealous of the White Deer God.Although he is not a strategic and clever king (he doesn't think so himself), he also knows that the gods can be sacrificed but not offended.

Even if the gods are invisible and intangible, since there are gods and demons in this world, it is always right to respect them.

Out of the idea of ​​not wanting to offend the gods, the king was very straightforward when rewarding Tang Bo, including the territory of Sita County of Luma Principality.At the same time, in order to make Tang Bo's title worthy of such a large territory, His Majesty the King simply promoted Tang Bo's title and gave him a third-class earl.

This is definitely a surprise for Tang Bo. Although he doesn't care about his noble status, living in this world where status varies greatly, having a noble status will undoubtedly bring him a lot of convenience.

Whether it's business or building a territory in the future, the higher the title, the better.

Originally, it was not easy for the king to intervene and directly grant the fief in the principality to another nobleman, but the king could "suggest" the grand duke of the principality, and he could also give an exchange condition.

Now that the Luma Grand Justice is at war with the Principality of Lanji, and there are civil strife in the country, it is the time when a lot of support is needed.When the king sent someone to discuss with him, asking him to confer all the territory of Sita County to Tang Bo, the lord of Bailu, on the condition that the king would not send troops to help the Principality of Lanji, and at the same time contain the other two principalities. Let them intervene in the war between green hemp and bluegrass.

Grand Duke Luma concealed his surprise and wanted more benefits, but the officials who came to negotiate were from the Marquis of Thunder. They said it was a negotiation, but they said nothing, and they clung to the terms and did not let go.Later, the envoy got annoyed and said that if Duke Luma disagreed, the capital would no longer prevent other principalities from carve-up of the Principality of Luma, and even the capital would intervene.

Although the words are not so clear, everyone understands the meaning.

Duke Luma didn't want to fall into a situation of siege from all directions, so he immediately agreed to the envoy's conditions.

The envoy knew Tang Bo's ability, and in order to win over Tang Bo, he waited in Luma Capital, waiting for Tang Bo to come and take over the fiefdom.

Of course, in addition to win over Tang Bo, he also brought a mission here.During his stay in Luma City, he needed to understand the current situation in the Luma Principality and the progress of their war with the Lanji Principality.

The Duke of Luma also made indirect remarks to the envoy, asking him if he knew anything about paper.The Duke of Luma thought that the king would suddenly protect Tang Bo, and it was very likely that it had something to do with papermaking.

Although Che Ying told him that Bailuling didn't master papermaking skills when he came back, but Duke Luma was suspicious by nature, and he always felt that something was wrong.

He had already started a war with the Principality of Lanji, and captured some secret agents and generals of the Principality of Lanji, but after interrogating him, he found that no one knew about the paper.

Most importantly, if the Principality of Lanji had mastered the art of papermaking, how could they protect a small third-class baron and send him to the king on purpose?

If Tang Bo is really related to the Principality of Lanji, shouldn't it be that Tang Bo secretly defected to the Principality of Lanji at this time, or sent someone to take Tang Bo away?

It is because the Principality of Lanji acted as if it did not know that there was Tang Bo, and there was no movement to indicate that someone was going to take Tang Bo away, so that Duke Luma believed that even if Tang Bo had contacts with the Principality of Lanji, for the Principality of Lanji It's just a dispensable role to use, and it can be discarded when it's used up.

Because of this idea, Duke Luma didn't attack Tang Bo.

But suddenly, the capital actually sent an envoy.

When the envoys came, Duke Luma and his confidants made all kinds of guesses. They all thought that it was related to the civil war, and they all guessed that His Majesty the King, who was of average ability and could not really control the national power of the country, came to persuade them not to go to war.

It turned out that the envoy came to offer a reward to a small lord.

If this is a stable period, this matter can also be regarded as a glory of the Principality.

But now it is during the war of the Luma Principality, such a reward is like digging the corner of the Luma Duke, especially the content of the reward is not that His Majesty the King bestowed a new territory on the little lord, but let the Luma Duke choose from himself Divide a piece of his fief to the little lord.

This is no longer digging a wall, this is simply running around the house with a hoe to dig a homestead!

How could Duke Luma be happy when he heard such a reward?

If His Majesty hadn't given him some benefits, and he didn't want to really offend the titular king, he would really be able to drive out the envoys.

But when Duke Lvma thought that Tang Bo was rewarded with papermaking skills, the envoy gave him a strange look.

Grand Duke Luma is very angry, is this look showing him pity for him?

"Your Majesty has recovered, and now he looks like a young man in his 30s. Besides, haven't you heard the news that the Marquis of Thunder has recovered?" The envoy really sympathized with Duke Luma.

Obviously, there was such a miraculous god-favored person in his principality, but he didn't get the other party's allegiance, let alone win over the other party. In the end, he made people go to the capital to find a way out.

The envoy thought that if he had such a god-favored person who could live and die by his side, he would definitely coax him well, and he would never do such a stupid thing as raising taxes for others.

Grand Duke Luma really didn't know the news about Marquis Thunder's recovery.

The Marquis of Thunder did not make a big announcement after his recovery, but he did not block the news either, as long as he inquired a little, he would be able to know the situation.

However, Duke Luma has been devastated by internal strife and foreign wars during this period, so he is still concerned about the news of the capital thousands of miles away.

The envoy was even more sympathetic to Duke Luma, "It seems that you are not clear."

The Duke of Luma tactfully praised the envoy a few words, and gave him a lot of "special products" of the Principality of Luma under the pretext of coming here for the first time.

The envoy looked at the thirteen young and beautiful maids, and then opened some of the green hemp specialties and a small box full of gold coins that the servants had delivered to him, finally showing a little smile on his face.

The envoy who received the gift chatted with Duke Luma about the hottest news in the capital.

After hearing this, Grand Duke Luma's face almost split open.

How can it be?

That little third-class baron who had never been taken seriously by him from the beginning to the end, he went to the capital and used his power of the gods to heal the Marquis of Thunder and His Majesty the King?In addition to these two, Tang Bo also treated other people, including nobles, but the others were not worth mentioning compared to those two.

"Family of the gods? Sacrificial healing? White deer god?" Duke Luma couldn't help repeating.

Envoy: "Yes, it is really a very miraculous ability. Both the Marquis and His Majesty the King appreciate Earl Tang very much, and they want to give him guards as gifts, but Earl Tang said that he has no money to support him, so he just No. In the end, Lord Marquis got to know Earl Tang and sent him some craftsmen and serfs."

Duke Luma: "...Earl?"

"Third-class earl. Although he is the lowest-ranking earl, he is registered in the Shang Department of the capital, which is much more valuable than ordinary earls." The envoy said a little more.

The Duke of Luma's face became even more dull: "...he also got a national business order?"

"Yes. Not only that, His Majesty the King also gave Earl Tang the qualification to be a national merchant. From now on, he can not only do business in the whole territory of our Tonglei country, but also represent our Tonglei country to do business in other countries." The envoy looked at the green hemp The Grand Duke had an abnormal expression, and asked him deliberately: "Aren't you very happy to have such a talented person in your territory, Grand Duke?"

Grand Duke Luma: ...I'm so happy, I just want to kill people now!

But Tang Bo has entered the eyes of the king, and has become the savior of the Marquis of Thunder. He is not afraid of the king, but also considers the Marquis of Thunder.

If he dared to attack Tang Bo in a short period of time, the two would definitely use this as an excuse to attack the Luma Principality and take the opportunity to carve up his fiefdom and wealth. ——They would not do this in the past, because the Luma Principality had no openings at that time, and if they wanted to take it down, they would have to pay a huge price.But now Lvma is full of troubles, and now anyone looking at Lvma is like looking at a piece of fat.

Even if he didn't attack Tang Bo, if something happened to Tang Bo, maybe he would fall on him.

In this way, not only could he not attack Tang Bo, but he had to protect him instead.

Grand Duke Luma is really depressed, so depressed that he is about to vomit blood!

He planned to take care of the third-class baron when the war eased a little bit, regardless of whether he had mastered papermaking skills, first copied the other party's territory and home, and used the other party's wealth to make up for the principality's war losses. The citizens of the White Deer Collar were also pulled out and used as cannon fodder.

But as soon as the envoy came, his plan was completely disrupted.Not only will he not be able to deal with Tang Bo in the future, he will have to treat him as a special existence.

In the future, this girl will be a national businessman!

No matter how much money he makes in business, he won't give him a copper coin!

This also means that Tang Bo can sell as much paper as he wants in the future.Even if he sells weapons, as long as the king doesn't bother him, he, the Grand Duke, will be jealous.

However, Tang Bo also got a territory as large as Sita County!

How can Duke Luma be willing to only charge Tang Bo's agricultural tax?

Oh, in order to win over Tang Bo, maybe he can't collect too much agricultural tax from him.

Just when the Grand Duke of Luma slandered Tang Bo and asked his confidants to discuss how to deal with the newly promoted third-class earl who was a national businessman, Tang Bo was also rushing to Luma City.

Tang Bo treated the king well and did not choose to stay in the capital. He bought a lot of goods in the name of a national merchant and left the capital soon.

After that, he hung a copy of the business order and the identity of the national businessman on the ship.

Although the tax officials in the waterway would have intercepted them, after checking Tang Bo's identity, no one dared to trouble the fleet, let alone ask him to pay taxes.

The name of Tang Bo, the lord of the White Deer Territory, has spread from the capital to all parts of the country. Among them, Grand Duke Qingdou, who is the closest to the capital, was the first to get the news.

Grand Duke Qingdou knew from his arrangements for the territory that this man was a man of success. He not only quickly passed the news to the tax officials along the river, but also asked them to treat Tang Bo well, making sure that the other party had a good impression of Qingdou Principality.

For this reason, Tang Bo also stayed in several major cities of Qingdou Principality, and successfully sold most of the goods he brought from the capital, and bought a large amount of Qingdou Principality's special products at a low price.

The reason why the Principality of Aomame is called Aomame is because there are so many legumes in this country.

Green beans are actually a bit like mung beans, but they are much bigger than mung beans. After being cooked, they taste slightly sweet and have no beany smell. They are much tastier than boiled soybeans. They are the staple food in the Green Bean Principality.

Moreover, green beans can be grown in two varieties a year, and they can be harvested in only three months after planting, and the harvested quantity is relatively large, which is a crop that is very suitable for growing as a staple food.Legend has it that the original Grand Duke Qingdou became a Grand Duke by using green beans as military rations.

Tang Bo specially bought some green beans and cooked them. He found that the green beans would explode after cooking, like popcorn, but the taste was very soft, a bit like steamed buns with a little water.

It is very suitable to use boiled green beans as the staple food and to accompany stir-fried vegetables.

When Tang Bo found such high-quality grains, he would of course buy them in bulk.

But the local grain merchants told him that green beans are a restricted product of the Qingdou Principality, and merchants in other places can only buy a small amount, not large quantities.

Tang Bo had given up his mind at first, and only planned to buy some to take back and cultivate slowly.

But the local officials came to Tang Bo himself and offered to sell [-] catties of green beans to Tang Bo.

Naturally, Tang Bo couldn't refuse such a good thing delivered to his door, so he happily accepted it.

It was only later that Tang Bo found out that they would sell it so simply because green beans are a very selective crop. In the past, traders from other places came to buy green beans and wanted to plant them in their hometown. But so far, apart from the Green Bean Principality, I have never heard of any green beans that can grow alive.

It might not be possible to plant it with someone else, but Tang Bo has an ancient tripod.

After Gu Ding regained his third eye, his plant-loving talent also came back. Although it has been mutated, it is there.

Gu Ding can communicate directly with plants, not dialogue, but can perceive what plants need for growth.

With Gu Ding's report, Tang Bo found a veteran farmer with rich experience in farming. After several attempts, he found the soil ratio suitable for the growth of green beans.

Qingdou has thus become one of the main food products of Bailuling.

These are all things to say, let's talk about the present first.

Tang Bo knew in the capital that he needed to go to Luma City, and he also knew that the envoy had gone there first.

It was not too slow for him to walk along the river by boat, but the envoys of the royal capital seemed to have other faster ways to get to where they wanted to go.

Tang Bo guessed that it was either the help of the gods, or it was related to the magic array.

Speaking of which, in the bedroom of the Marquis of Thunder, he saw several magic array diagrams and magic-related items, some for attack, some for protection, and some for recuperating the body, but Tang Bo pretended not to see it.

After entering the palace, Tang Bo also found some traces of the magic array in the palace.

All this shows that the knowledge of the demon race has existed semi-publicly on Double Moon, and it has been used by humans for many years.

Maybe it's just to find an enemy for mankind, so that the nobles can better manage the common people?It seems that all countries regard the demons as enemies, and never promote the magic knowledge of the demons.

When passing through Hongshanling, Tang Bo asked his men to bring the fleet back to Bailuling first, while he drove to Luma City in a carriage instead.

In order to save time and don't want to suffer on the road, Tang Bo gave the horses pulling the cart a gold medal engraved with the magic circle of speed.
