On a sunny afternoon, Roland fulfilled his promise.

canonized Tigu Pyne as a Viscount, and his territory was divided to the south of the Chishui River, across the river from the town.

Today there is still a dense forest, which belongs to the area to be opened.

In order for him to give up his autonomy in the territory, Roland promised to give priority to the development of Tigu's territory in the future, and to distribute certain shares to the viscount and his descendants for the property established on the land.

Of course, Roland used his verbal skills to describe it as a good thing that he didn't need to manage the industry, and he could spend money lying down.

Tigu readily agreed to this – he didn't like these things in the first place. In his opinion, there is nothing more interesting than fighting on horseback.

But now that he has a daughter, he focuses on hunting.

In addition, the property in Tigu's original territory had long been in decline, so he simply asked the prince to send someone to help him sell the land east of the fortress, and move the whole family to live in Border Town.

Roland naturally agreed.

The other person was Brian. Roland granted him the status of knight and asked him whether he would choose land or serve in the army.

If you choose land, you will no longer be able to join the First Army of Border Town.

If you join the army, you have to rely on military exploits to get promoted and get rewarded land like other people.

Brian chose the latter without hesitation.

In this way, Roland also has a rough map of land use planning.

With the Chishui River as the boundary, the land between the Impassable Mountain Range is the residential area. The narrow part is about three kilometers, and the wide part is seven or eight kilometers.

In the future, communities can be built, and land can also be used as rewards for promoted officers.

On the other side of the Chishui River is the future industrial and agricultural area. The land can extend to the south, but it is still a forest, and there are rolling hills in the distance.

When the population meets the demand, Roland will inevitably start to reclaim this woodland.

The Hidden Forest west of Border Town is also an important starting point.

There are all kinds of treasures in the forest, such as wood, edible fungi, wild animals, and medicinal materials.

In addition to being used in construction and industry, wood is also useful as fuel.

The area of this forest is astonishingly large. Roland let Lightning inspect it, and he could not see the end after flying 30 kilometers.

Finally, there is the open space between the Misleading Forest and the Impassable Mountain Range—it is also a forbidden area for no one to set foot in, a barren land.

Judging from the direction of the boundary line between the mountains and the forest, the area surrounded by them is extremely vast, almost much larger than the Kingdom of Graycastle.

Facing such an unclaimed land, Roland felt itchy in his heart.

But he also knew that he couldn't take care of this place for the time being.

Right now, what Border Town needs most is its population.

Back at the castle office, he recruited the painter Soraya.

"How is the work of assisting the city hall done recently?"

"I have never painted so many paintings in one day," she looked much more energetic than when she first saw her, "I have basically finished painting today. But the painting It feels a bit strange to leave only a window the size of a head."

"In order not to scare the townspeople with your magic pen," the prince smiled, "Although they know that there are witches, such close contact is still easy to cause witches. It was an accident, so I simply adopted some concealment methods to let them not know that you are a witch. It will gradually get better in the future."

Soraya's photography ability brought a new improvement to Roland's civil registration plan.

City Hall has vacated a room for the project as an archive, where information on townspeople is kept.

Similar to the household registration booklet, each piece of paper has their name, age, residence, blood relationship and other information written on it.

This information was briefly collected by Barov once in winter, and this time the record has expanded a lot by the way.

The biggest change is that "color photos" are attached to the accounts of all characters.

According to Roland's request, the city hall set up a small room in the hall for one person to enter and exit. The outside was wrapped in linen, leaving only a square window directly in front for Soraya to see the appearance of the other party.

In this way, when the witch is painting a portrait in the house, the other party will not see the magic pen.

As for how to get the residents of the territory to report information enthusiastically, the method given by Roland is very simple. Anyone who comes can get a subsidy of ten copper eagles-this money is allocated by the city hall.

"I called you here today because I want you to draw something else." Roland spread the cut paper in front of Soraya.

The latter noticed that the pieces of paper were exactly the same size, only half the size of a palm, and rectangular.

"What do you want me to draw?"

"Some entertainment props." Roland said.

This idea has long existed in his mind. Witches basically have nothing to do except practice every day. Such a life seems a bit boring.

The same is true for the prince, especially before the snow melts, his range of activities is basically only in the castle.

Therefore, it is imperative to come up with some entertainment and find a few witches to accompany you to relax.

The simplest is of course playing cards.

However, the soft plain paper is not suitable for standing in the hand, and shuffling is also troublesome.

Now with Soraya, he can naturally consider making some more advanced gadgets.

"Entertainment?" She tilted her head and thought about it, as if she didn't understand what kind of entertainment drawing on a square piece of paper is, "Well, you have the final say."

"First, on this piece of paper, draw a A soldier with a heavy crossbow."

"Imagine?"

"That's right, his armor, figure, age, and the environment he is in are all up to your imagination. As long as he is holding a heavy crossbow."

"Uh… let me try , " Soraya closed her eyes, pondered for a while, and a colorful magic pen appeared in her hand.

Soon, a crossbowman with the appearance of a middle-aged man jumped on the paper.

"Very good, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com" Roland praised, "Let me think about what to draw next, um… draw a small circle in the upper left corner and middle of the paper," he said in his mind Recalling the appearance of those cards, "The first circle has a gold border on a white background, and the second circle has a gold border on an orange background."

After these drawings were finished, Roland asked her to add numbers to the first circle and the bow and arrow logo to the second circle.

The magic of Soraya's ability is that she can paint regardless of the material, so there is no difference between blank paper and patterned paper for her, and the pattern painted later can perfectly cover the former, just like layer covering.

Thus, an exquisite "Crossbowman Card" appeared in front of Roland.

"Is that all right?" she asked.

"This is just a unit card. There are many similar cards to be drawn. Finally, I can make a deck and I will teach you how to play."

Seeing Soraya drawing with her eyes closed, Roland felt a feeling in his heart. With a hunch, maybe such conversations will soon fill his castle –

"What are you going to do? Let's have a plate of Gwent first!" (To be continued.)
