" Ru removed all the blueprint from the shelf and handed them one by one to Fong Hao.
The market was still in its infancy, offering only commonplace goods.
Naturally, Rur held a favorable impression of Fong Hao, appreciating his decisiveness and the fact that he purchased every item after inspection.
With the shelves now empty, R slowly made his way back to the tomb.
Farewell, my lord.
Goodbye, Mr.
Rur.
I look forward to your next visit.
Rur bowed gracefully as the ancient tomb began to close.
After bidding farewell to the skeletal merchant, Fonhow commenced examining the attributes of his recent acquisitions.
Leatherjerkin, white iron 3, leather 5.
The jerkin differed from saddle.
The latter is a seat placed upon a horse's back, enhancing riding stability.
The jerkin, however, serves as a form of armor, enveloping the steed and protective gear to bolster its defensive capabilities, particularly suited for horses engaged in battle.
Acquiring the jerkin effectively augmented the combat prowess of the territorial cavalry.
Without haste to craft it, he continued to inspect the next blueprint.
Wooden spinning wool blueprint, greenwood 22, metal parts 5, hemp rope 3.
Description, an essential tool for fabric production.
Chapter 69.
The ogre's stronghold.
The function of a spinning wheel seems to pertain to the realm of tailoring.
These matters are still distant for Fong Hao, who is not in haste to create.
Forging furnace, 12 stone, five clay.
Description: Ignite the furnace to smelt metals into ingots.
ingots.
Upon reading the description, Fonhao s heart leaped with joy.
Cast iron ingots are essential materials for crafting iron plates, and Fonho been diligently seeking methods to procure them.
Unexpectedly, they are not synthesized from blueprints, but require smelting in a forging furnace.
After reviewing the attributes, he promptly selected a vacant plot to the left of the lord's cabin for construction.
Subsequently, a forging furnace constructed from stone and clay was completed.
Forging furnace ingredients five iron product cast iron ingot processing time 15 minutes.
Description: By heating, one can obtain metal working materials used in crafting and alchemical processes.
Ah, so this is how cast ironing are obtained.
Fongghao proceeded to create five additional forging furnaces.
You there, you few, will henceforth be responsible for the operation of the forging furnaces.
Fonggho selected a few fortunate skeletons nearby to oversee the furnaces.
Each cast iron ingot requires 5 minutes to form, and since Fongo cannot monitor them continuously, he entrusted the task to the skeletons.
The summoned skeletons turned stiffly to face him.
After a glance at the forging furnace, they headed to the warehouse to deposit the iron ore.
Seeing the skeletons operate the forging furnace without issue, Fong Hao felt reassured and continued to examine the hero contract blue and advanced hero contract blue.
Description: An advanced slave contract that allows one to sign a subordinate agreement with the highest tier blue heroes.
He already possessed two slave contracts.
This time he unexpectedly received a hero contract allowing him to form a bond with a blue hero.
This is indeed a fortunate acquisition.
He recorded the contract in the Lord s book as it may be of use at an uncertain time.
The remaining items had previously surfaced and he was well aware of their functions.
After reviewing all item attributes, Funghao proceeded to the pasture area.
Upon accepting the Pigman village as a subordinate settlement yesterday, he had unlocked the blueprint for the stable.
Once constructed, he could raise horses within it.
Selecting a suitable open space, he chose to build level one stable, 720 wood, 450 stone, 350 straw, 180 hemp rope.
Description for the breeding and training of horses.
With the stable completed, Fongghao continued to upgrade it.
Due to the requirement for stone bricks at level four, he could currently only elevate the stable to level three.
The territory is now divided into three distinct areas.
The inner city, the military zone, and the breeding zone.
The inner city comprises the lord's cabin, warehouse, guard towers, organ museum, and the newly constructed forging furnace.
The military zone contains the underground cemetery, burial grounds, corridor of the deceased, and the skeleton transformation area.
The breeding zone encompasses the pasture, spirit field, and stable.
The three major zones are situated in distinct locations, remaining entirely independent of one another.
Fongghow's territory possesses a unique characteristic that sets it apart from others.
While other races are required to construct residences for their farmers and soldiers, occupying most of the available space with civilian buildings, Fonhow finds himself in a different predicament.
Within his domain, only he and Eer reside, and even the lordly wooden cabin remains underutilized.
The hero Nelson resides in the Oregon Museum, requiring no additional accommodation.
Consequently, despite possessing these structures, a significant portion of the territory remains conspicuously vacant, exuding an air of desolation.
Once the tasks were completed, the heir prepared a meal and called Fong how to die.
As they ate, Fong Ho perused the regional channel once more.
Curious about the progress of others.
He wondered about the fate of the individual whose territory had been attacked the previous day.
Silence had enveloped him for an entire day.
It seemed likely that his prospects were grim.
If one day his own territory were to fall, he would not be astonished.
Perhaps he should procure some weapons from the esteemed Fong how to bolster his defenses.
Although they had survived the frenzy of beastly blood, overall safety had not improved.
On the contrary, with the disappearance of the protective shield, more territories were discovered by nearby native forces, resulting in numerous obliterations.
In this tumultuous time, not only did Fong weapons began to sell briskly, but even the previously unsought meat products became highly coveted.
Yesterday, a dozen vagrants arrived to the territory seeking to join.
What a stroke of fortune.
free labor.
Yet a sense of forboding lingered.
These individuals seemed less like vagrants and more akin to a band of briggins.
With only a handful of militia in his village, an uneasy feeling settled within him.
Why would he allow them to join? Was he not concerned for his own safety? Regret washed over him as he realized he should have been more proactive, acquiring more soul crystals to recruit additional troops as a precaution.
Upon reading this sentiment, Fong How recalled the Pigman village he had acquired the day before.
This was not merely a game.
The digitization of the world facilitated the comprehension of this realm for the transmigrated lords.
The intelligence of the indigenous inhabitants was not inferior to his own.
In fact, they may possess a deeper understanding of this world.
Thus, the slave contract, a binding agreement to restrict the actions of others, held paramount importance.
At the very least, after signing the contract, the other party would be dissuaded from making harmful decisions.
Hastily finishing his meal, Fonhow received private messages from numerous lords requesting custom-made iron axes, iron spears, and various weaponry.
He promptly crafted these items and listed them for sale.
Only in an environment where prosperity abounds could he, as a merchant, acquire better and rare resources.
Otherwise, if everyone but himself remained impoverished, he would be left to barter for mere stones and timber.
Next, Fongghao had his own endeavors to attend to.
His plan for the day involved exploration of a second map he had obtained, the ogre stronghold.
Opening the map from the Lord's book, he examined the specific location.
The stronghold lay to the west of his territory in the direction where he had previously encountered the lost with spirit, albeit further away.
Having organized everything, Fong Hao returned directly to his chamber.
After reclining on the bed, he entered a state of divine possession, embodying a skeletal cavalryman, possession target, skeletal scout, compatibility 65.
This time, Fonggha was accompanied by a skeletal giant bat.
