Lord of the North

Busy days passed quickly, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye. Lancelot was able to control most of the armed forces in Iron Fang Town. With his tough methods and unparalleled charisma, he was convinced The City Guards!

And the town elected by the townspeople has also been determined. It is an old man in his sixties named Dia, with gray hair and wise eyes!

Jason heard that he used to be the mayor of Iron Tooth Town, and he served for more than 20 years! It's just that after Aoqi came, he was dismissed! So this election was almost unanimously passed!

Everything seems to be on the right track, and the townspeople have started farming. The weather in the Northland is harsh, and the winter time is close to half of the year! So the townspeople need to hurry up and cultivate in the remaining time!

Only rye, which has strong adaptability but average yield, can be cultivated here!

Jason was sitting in the lord's hall looking at the system interface with a worried face, his face full of confusion.

Host: Jason Lopez

Status: Marquis of Lopez Kingdom, Lord of Iron Fang

Points: 100

Evaluation: You have really owned a territory, although it is very poor! But your people still have doubts about you, and there are still discordant voices in the territory! Work hard, this system does not want to be buried with you!

Main task: Your back is against the vast northern ice sheet, where the climate is harsh and full of dangers, no one has ever been willing to explore it! This is virgin land! Opportunities are at hand, come on boy!

Mission Requirements: Explore the Northland Ice Field! Find at least one resource with which to trade with the outside world!

Task time: one year;

Task rewards: one advanced lucky draw, 50 points, and one ordinary gift bag!

Failure penalty: 100 points will be deducted!

Side Quests: None.

Jason wants to scold the system now, he only has 100 points, and the penalty for failure of the next main task will be 100, this is the rhythm of not planning to draw a lottery!

"When did this side mission come out?" Jason asked with a dark face. He remembered that there was no such thing when he checked the system last time!

"In view of the lack of sources of host points, to prevent you from dying prematurely due to insufficient points, the system decided to launch side missions! The rewards are generous, but there is no such thing as a free lunch, so the punishment for failure is relatively severe!" The system said, I am for you Good talk!

"Before you said that there are other sources of points, what is that?" Jason remembered the words of the previous system, how is this different from game recharge?

"The host is asked to explore by himself, this system does not encourage recharging points for something for nothing!" The system is serious.

Can get something for nothing? Jason felt like it was tempting him to find that channel quickly!

"One more question, what will happen if the points are negative?" This is something Jason has always been curious about. Could it be obliteration or something?

"No serious consequences, at most it's just a vegetable!" The system seemed to have seen through Jason's thoughts, holding back bad words!

"Okay, no problem, you can shut up!" He said with a dark face, this system is too irritating! Jason felt that the current system didn't match its cold tone. After completing his first mission, the system seemed to have feelings!

Because it is always teasing itself!

"Quick, go tell Mayor Dia to come over!" Jason rubbed his forehead, and ordered the guards outside.

Quick was a member of Barry's group at the time. Because Uncle Barry was temporarily appointed as the chief of the guard, and because Quick was better at observing words and emotions, he was responsible for Jason's daily delivery of orders, and he seemed to be his herald.

"Yes, my lord!" He answered and left quickly.

After half a month of development, the fox girl Lorna is mainly responsible for Alexis's daily life. Due to Jason's love,

Alexis has become a little princess in the castle, and is accepted as a student by Lancelot!

In addition, Jason also found a few cooks to take care of everyone's meals, plus Barry and other sixteen guards, they formed all the current members of the castle!

At present, the biggest problems facing Jason's territory are nothing more than population, food and economy! He has no good solution to the food problem, and the Northland is not suitable for planting at all! Therefore, except for the rye grown by a small number of citizens, everything else needs to be purchased from other territories! This also means that I will be controlled by others!

So I must find other resources in this northern land, and have enough bargaining chips to trade with other territories! Moreover, new resources can also directly affect the territorial economy!

As for the population, Jason has even more headaches! No one wants to abandon their homeland and go to the desolate North to suffer! Unless there is a military turmoil in other places, or there is something that attracts them in the Northland!

Thinking of this, Jason fell into silence, thinking is easier than doing! Maybe that would be a way...

"My lord, Mayor Dia is here!" Just as he was still immersed in his thoughts, Quick's voice brought him back to reality.

"Huh?" Jason patted his forehead, thinking to himself that he was thinking too much, it's better to discuss this kind of matter with the old man outside!

"Ask him to come in!"

"I have seen the lord!" Mr. Dia is over sixty years old, and the years have left countless marks on his face, but his eyes are still sharp and his thinking is still quick. If he is not just a commoner, It is impossible for Sir Orchi to run amok in Iron Fang Town!

"Mayor Dia, I invited you here to discuss a few things with you!" Jason thought about it, then said, and motioned him to sit across from him.

"I want you to help me make up my mind!"

"Please order!" Mr. Diya sat on the stool respectfully.

"Iron Fang is too barren, but behind us is the vast northern ice sheet, where there are countless mineral resources waiting for us to discover! I want to set up an expedition team and ask them to explore this land!" Jason Said in a low tone, exploring the unknown represents an inevitable sacrifice!

"I agree, my lord!" Mr. Dia thought about it after Jason finished speaking, and immediately agreed.

"I also had this idea more than ten years ago, but we don't have the permission issued by the lord and the kingdom. Even if we find minerals, we can't mine them, so let's let it go!"

"Then please issue a notice after you go back to recruit 50 strong men in the territory to form an expedition team! Responsible for drawing the map of the Gela Icefield and preparing for future exploration!" I just don't know how many people this team will end up with Come back alive!

"Do you have a candidate for a team leader?" Jason asked again, a good team leader can increase the team's chances of survival a lot!

"My son, Dawn!" Mr. Diya said, his lips trembled uncontrollably! His words are very likely to push his son to death!

"He is the best hunter of the Iron Fangs! He has led teams to hunt in the ice field many times!" He knew that this expedition was different from hunting. This time he went deep into the ice field instead of just hunting outside the ice field! It is very likely to meet the barbarians of the North who live in the ice field!

The notorious cannibal tribe! The beast that was driven to that barren land by the human army hundreds of years ago! Hatred for humans runs in their veins!

"You are a great mayor!" Jason was immediately in awe!

"But I'm not a qualified father!" Dia smiled wryly. He only had this one son, and his son had his own family. It was really cruel for them to do this by themselves!

But now, as the mayor of Tieya Town, I have to be responsible for the townspeople!

"Other than that, I'll think about how to increase the number of people in the territory!" Jason diverted from this heavy topic. The previous census of Iron Tooth Town showed 8,633 people! It's hard to imagine that there are only so few people in a town the size of a county seat!

"Sir Orchi's policy was too strict before, and many people in the territory had no choice but to leave their hometowns. I think it is unlikely that they will come back!" Mr. Diya shook his head with a wry smile, expressing that he would like the former citizens to come back. So realistic!

Jason pondered for a while, then raised his head and said seriously: "I want to issue a "Wildland Reclamation Order"!"
