Looking around, the ruins made of stone strips less than two meters high and uneven and stretched for more than a thousand meters are the "city wall" of the desolate town. Judging from the degree of this dilapidation, I am afraid that it has not been repaired for at least decades.

The outside of the town was a barren and desolate Gobi. Looking around, there was no grass growing on the huge Gobi, all of which were covered with yellow sand, soil, no mountains, no water, and no people.

Looking back, how could the buildings in this deserted town, known as the Earl's fief, be so deserted?

Low stone houses were scattered in a row in a row in the town. Many of the houses had weathered outside. A gust of wind blew, and stone sand and dust were flying like dust.

However, there is a building in the center of the town that is relatively "magnificent". Yes, compared to these stone houses that can be compared with the residences of primitive tribes, the building is indeed more magnificent and spectacular. It can be called a landmark building in the barren town. It must be Ye Feng's Earl's Mansion.

But if you put it in Leize City for comparison, it is really not much better than the residences of civilians.

Then look at the NPC residents strolling around the town in the distance, they were all pale and thin, dressed in rags, like disaster victims who had never had enough food for several lifetimes.

"Oh my uncle, the place where this bird doesn't poop is my Earl's fief?"

Ye Feng was disappointed and originally planned to bring the girls to show off. Now it seems that if they really let them see it, they would probably have a smile.

Ye Feng was very disappointed and sighed and raised his legs to walk towards the Earl's Mansion.

The NPC residents along the way saw the Count coming listlessly, and they all retreated to the side of the road in panic and saluted Ye Feng respectfully.

They are all indigenous people of the Barren Town. According to the mainland laws, Ye Feng is the private property. In Barren Town, Ye Feng is a veritable local emperor, and he can even rule the life and death of these NPCs.

Moreover, Ye Feng's status is protected by the kingdom and even the Temple of Light. The NPC in the Barren Town must obey Ye Feng's orders. If Ye Feng's wishes violate Ye Feng's will, he will be regarded as a rebel by the kingdom and the temple and will be wanted until he is executed.

Of course, it is not to let Ye Feng be lawless. If Ye Feng blindly implements tyranny, he will be disgusted by the indigenous people. Although the officials will not force the people to rebel, he will sue the royal family or the elders' house, and Ye Feng's title will likely be dismissed.

These common senses that are not common sense were found by the careful beauty Momo from the library of Leize City after Ye Feng was awarded the title. Prepare for the future and sound a wake-up call for Ye Feng first, so as not to become a tyrant and be dismissed from office and thrown away.

Ye Feng casually looked at these indigenous residents. It was awesome to play games. Players were treated so politely by a group of NPCs, but he really didn't feel excited at this time. Is this NPC? How can he look like a beggar?

Not long after walking, a team of twenty NPC guards came towards him, and then stopped five yards away from Ye Feng, and a standard knight's gift was brought together.

The leader of the NPC, who looked like a captain, walked out of the queue and lowered his head to Ye Feng and said respectfully: "The garrison of the Desolate Town, the commander of the Rage Lion Knights Orlov, see the Count!"

"Hello, Commander Orov!" Ye Feng nodded, the Knights of the Rage Lion sounded awesome, but looking at the outfits of these NPC guards, the armor was rusty, the armor leaves were broken and rolled, and the leather was patched with animal skins, which made people vomit simply.

Naturally, the equipment of local troops cannot be compared with the regular troops of the main city satellite city, but isn’t it too much for you to be so ragged!

"Sir Earl, the Kingdom and the Temple have conveyed to me the order that the desolate town is divided into your fief. Please move to the Earl's Mansion and count your property..." Olov said.

"Property? It's rare that this bird doesn't poop, and there is still oil and water in the places where the rabbit doesn't pee!"

Ye Feng felt a little comforted and followed Orov through several narrow alleys and into the Earl's Mansion.

...

Ye Feng was too lazy to complain about the simple and simple Earl's Mansion. The ruling hall that issued the government orders and the private residence that satisfies the players' showing off their wealth were all in this big stone house. The only thing that made him feel a little embarrassed was a group of pretty well-dressed guards guarding the mansion, and six maids with a look of disgrace.

Ye Feng sat down with a big golden sword in the main seat, and Orov presented a stack of books with his hands.

Territory level: Level 1 (up to level 6)

The garrisoned regiment: The Knights of the Rage Lion, with a total of 500 people. The regiment commander Orov, has five squadrons under his command, each with one hundred people, and a monthly salary of 6,240 gold coins.

The maximum number of recruitment is: 3,000 people

Indigenous residents of the Barren Town: a total of 11,081 people.

Teleportation array: one (damaged)

Foundry: One (discontinued)

Pharmacy: one

Grocery store: one

Defensive Arrow Tower: 0 (can be constructed)

Mine: 3 (occupied, no productivity)

Farm: Undeveloped

...

"Sir Earl, now the Dark Legion is back to the mainland. The barren town is in a remote place and has difficulty in defense. We urgently need to strengthen the defense to prevent the Dark Legion invasion. The city walls must be strengthened and raised, and arrow towers are built, catapults are built, and soldiers are also needed to recruit and expand the military. You know, the Knights of the Rage Lion are only five hundred people who are loyal to you, which is not enough to resist the large-scale invasion of the Dark Legion..."

"In addition, the houses in the barren town have been disrepaired, the farms are deserted, the mines have been taken away, the residents have no income, and their living conditions are in difficulty, and they also need relief."

"Also, I hope you can rebuild the teleportation array. We are too far from the defensive front of the Kingdom. Once attacked, the teleportation array is the only way for residents to escape or seek help from the Kingdom. In addition, if there is a teleportation array, there should be many adventurers who like to explore in the Barren Town. There are tens of millions of beasts, undeads, evil thieves, sand bandits, and robbers on the outside of the Barren Town. It is a good place to experience. I think those adventurers who like to explore will bring considerable income to the Count."

...

"Of course, it takes a huge amount of gold coins to complete. If the Earl does not have so many gold coins to control, I suggest that you first ask the kingdom to send troops to encircle and suppress the sand bandits and regain your mine, so that we can extract ores, forge armor and weapons to sell them to adventurers or noble mercenaries, accumulate gold coins, and develop slowly..."

mlgbd, is this a title or a money to buy an official? I have to pay a lot of money before I even got the oil and water. Isn’t this a scam? Ye Feng was so angry that his teeth were itchy and his face turned dark.

"Oh, Count, your face seems to be ugly. I may have said too much to worry about the prospects of the desolate town, but I believe that under your leadership, the desolate town will surely prosper and become a shining pearl on the storm Gobi."

"Tell me, how many gold coins are needed in total?" Ye Feng waved his hand helplessly, just to think it was an early investment.

"Sixty-seven,553 gold coins." Orlov obviously had prepared for the numbers to be precisely single digits.

OK, not too outrageous!

Ye Feng thought about it and said, "I will hand over the gold coins to you as soon as possible. Please tell me what happened to the mine being taken away?"

"This is the thing. The premiered lord of the deserted town originally built three mines in the Storm Gobi, but because of insufficient troops, they were attacked and occupied by sand bandits on the Gobi. These sand bandits actually betrayed the adventurers and mercenaries who were blindly apart. They had rich combat experience, strong strength, better equipment than us, and had a large number of people. We were unable to regain the mine. Later, the lord had no choice but to ask to give up the fief and return to Leize City. He abandoned the people who followed him..." Orov replied with shame.

"Is the sand bandit very strong?" Ye Feng asked again.

"Very strong! The Storm Gobi is actually a buffer zone connecting the sphere of influence of the kingdom and the ancient battlefield of the Demon-Demon. It is not easy to survive in such a place."
