Fantasy Lord: Beginning with Daily Intelligence Chapter 234 - 162: Return to the Territory, Establishment of

Thor gently tapped the table with his right hand, and his gaze naturally turned towards Kuwait among the civil servants.

Compared to before, Kuwait’s skin was now extrely dark, with even a hint of an earthy sll on his body. However, the smile on his face was the brightest among those present.

"Lord, no more than four months should be enough to complete it."

"Currently, the Eagle River has already been traversed by one-third."

Kuwait spoke excitedly, reporting the current progress to Thor.

"Not bad!"

"But four months is still too slow."

"I will assign you an additional five thousand slaves, three thousand goblin slaves, and also deploy Pelos, along with thirty Official Knights and fifty Apprentice Knights. Can you complete it within three months?"

Thor pondered slightly, then spoke.

Since Kuwait’s progress was so rapid, Thor couldn’t help but have an idea.

With less than four months until next year’s spring plowing, completing it within three months would allow it to be included in next year’s spring sowing.

If the surrounding area can be fully developed, next year’s grain harvest will see a significant increase.

"Lord."

"I promise that in three months, no, just two months, it will be completed."

Hearing Thor’s words, Kuwait’s eyes lit up, and he quickly spoke up.

"Good!"

"Then two months, if you can complete it within those two months, I can award you five hundred rit points."

Thor said.

"Thank you, Lord!"

Upon hearing Thor’s words, Kuwait’s eyes brightened.

Even though the rit System had been upgraded once, five hundred rit points were still an extrely substantial amount, enough to give his descendants the opportunity to join the Eagle Cub Knight Order.

Such an outco naturally excited him.

"Alright!"

"That’s all for now!"

"Make sure to handle those three territories well, and rember to report any issues promptly."

Thor nodded, then waved his hand to dismiss the others.

"Yes!"

Several people bowed and retreated.

In the room, Thor began handling the backlog of papers for Eagle Territory.

Until nightfall.

Only then did Thor’s busy figure gradually co to a halt.

"Whew!"

Letting out a sigh, even Thor couldn’t help but get up and stretch.

"It seems, indeed, I need to find a steward."

Thor sighed softly and shook his head.

With the addition of three more territories, the affairs needing attention in Eagle Territory had increased. Even with over a dozen civil servants to share the workload, there was ultimately no one to consolidate everything.

This resulted in plenty of matters still reaching him.

Not to ntion the business of the Eagle rchant Association.

At this rate, he wouldn’t need to leave this room anymore.

However, finding a steward, or rather a Chief Civil Servant, was quite the tricky task.

This kind of talent is extrely rare everywhere.

Even powerful nobles need them.

The Habbs Comrce Association certainly doesn’t have any to sell, so looking to his father was one option.

But that would take too long.

It would take at least three months, maybe even longer, with the back and forth.

He didn’t have that much ti to wait.

"Knock, knock!"

In the room, fingers rhythmically tapped the table as Thor pondered how to solve this issue.

After a mont, Thor’s expression suddenly brightened.

"Maybe I can choose from those people father gave ."

Mumbling to himself, Thor’s gaze turned to the newly acquired three territories, and his thoughts beca clearer.

"Co here!"

He called out.

Soon, a maid ca into the room.

"Master!"

"Sophia, please notify Kuwait, Mongken, and Joseph to co to the castle tomorrow!"

"Never mind Kuwait for now, let Raymond co instead."

Thor instructed the maid who had entered.

Kuwait, Mongken, Joseph, and Raymond were currently the four he was most satisfied with. He planned to choose one from them.

Since Kuwait was still responsible for the Eagle River, Thor pondered for a mont and decided to temporarily exclude him.

Planning to choose first from Mongken, Joseph, and Raymond.

As for Kuwait, he still had opportunities.

Thor already had an idea.

What he wanted to establish was not a steward like his father or other nobles, but rather a Chief Civil Servant.

This kind of Chief Civil Servant would not be a lifelong position but would be rotated.

Everyone would have a chance.

This would ensure there wouldn’t be anyone just getting by or soone starting strong but ending poorly in the late stage.

It could also show other civil servants the opportunity.

Of course, he needed to think this through carefully.

After all, the world is different, and things cannot be directly copied.

However, there’s no rush; it can be done gradually.

He could even start while perfecting it.

"Yes, Master!"

Sophia responded respectfully, then retreated.

With Thor’s orders issued,

the ssage quickly spread.

The three quickly received the ssage.

On the third day,

all three civil servants returned.

Faced with Thor’s summons, the three couldn’t help but be filled with curiosity.

At this mont, the three were responsible for the developnt of the newly acquired territories, an arrangent Thor deliberately made. After all, the three were the best among the fifteen civil servants, entrusted with developing the new territories to stabilize them quickly.

In fact, this was indeed the case; within a month’s ti, all three territories had been stabilized to a basic degree.

In the study,

Thor was handling his official duties.

Soon.

"Knock, knock!"

The door was gently knocked.

"Co in!"

Thor said, hand movents halting simultaneously.

With a soft sound, the door opened, and the three civil servants walked in.

"Lord!"

Seeing Thor, the three couldn’t help but greet him respectfully.

They admired Thor deeply.

Even thinking back, it felt incredible to them.

In just under two years, their Lord had developed the territory to such a scale; as civil servants of the Dressrosa Family, they knew very well that even many Viscount Clans did not necessarily have a territory of such scale.

This even included so Viscount Clans that had lasted three or four hundred years.

Such a result made their admiration all the more profound.

"You’ve co!"

"This ti, I’ve called you over because I’m planning to establish a Chief Civil Servant in Eagle Territory, and I think you all are competent."

"I intend to give the three of you a chance, what do you think?"

Thor looked at the three, pondered for a mont, and then spoke solemnly.

Hearing Thor’s words, the three were montarily stunned, and then their breathing grew heavy.

"Oh, and the Chief Civil Servant position cos with thirty rit points per month."

Seeming to rember sothing, Thor added.

This statent made people even more excited.

They understood the significance of rit points upon reaching Eagle Territory.

Under normal circumstances, fifty rit points among the Free People would suffice for a qualification to join the Preparatory Knight Order.

Currently, they earned five rit points a month, needing nearly a year to earn the chance for their children to join the Eagle Cub Knight Order. This was assuming nothing went wrong; any mistake would lead to a deduction of rit points, extending that ti beyond a year. After all, no one could guarantee they wouldn’t make mistakes.

With thirty rit points, two months would be enough to have their children join the Eagle Cub Knight Order.
