Chapter 504： Nice guy Batman!

"This old guy!" Narant frowned immediately, this Batman doesn't talk about martial arts, but he always plays these disgusting tricks.

Originally, it is reasonable to say that what Narant accepted should be the original territory of Quint. Although this territory of Quint is not a feng shui treasure, it has a castle and a small town, and the cultivated land has been developed. , you can use it directly.

But after being replaced by him like this now, wouldn't he still need to re-cultivate it himself?

The black iron knight could only show a slightly embarrassed expression when he heard that Narant used the old guy to call them the earl.

They really don't want to conflict with Narant, after all, in their eyes, Narant is second only to the existence of a few counts.

This is not because of how high Narant's force is, but because his iron lumps that can mobilize war horses and blow up enemies after being thrown are too weird.

"Sir Narant, in fact, after our Lord Earl re-planned the border territory this time, it is not necessarily bad for you!"

"Our adults just don't want to give up Quint Castle and the White Salt Town."

"And Lord Earl, he knows that this will definitely arouse your dissatisfaction, so in order to prevent the Tulip Family from reacting too strongly, after changing the layout of the territory, he deliberately increased the territory a little more."

"Now from your Stormland to our mountains further south, all the land will belong to you!"

"Really? In other words, your Black Iron Earl has given me all the territories bordering the Fire Prairie? I'm afraid your Lord Earl is not so kind. He wants me to serve as a shield for your Black Iron Earl! ' Narant replied angrily.

"Cough cough! This...that..." The Dark Iron Knight captain was pierced by Narant, who immediately did not know how to answer in embarrassment.

"Okay, I know that you are just following orders, and I will not embarrass you. I will go and see the terrain as you said. If I am not satisfied, I will naturally ask my Count to discuss with Bateman again." Narant waved his hand, interrupting the black iron knight's embarrassment.

"Thank you Sir Narant for your understanding!" The captain of the Dark Iron Knights breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yeah!" Nalanda nodded and didn't plan to stay any longer. He turned the direction and headed straight for the fork in the south. "Let's go!"

After Narant left, the black iron knights breathed a sigh of relief, "I didn't expect that it was Sir Narant who came, I'm afraid this territory will belong to him in the future, sigh, I should have known that he came, I will definitely propose to Lord Earl to change to another team!"

The Dark Iron Knight was glad that he did not have a conflict with Narant.

However, what he didn't know was that while he breathed a sigh of relief, Narant, who was heading south, also smiled.

"This Batman is such a good man! He even gave me all the territories on the territory and the necklace of the Fire Prairie! Then the Fire Prairie will be my back garden in the future!"

Originally, although the Kunt Territory was connected to the Fire Prairie, it only occupied a small part of the territory that the Black Iron family entered the grassland.

Since Narant received the development order, he has actually been troubled by one thing.

That is, if he solves the problem of the barbarian in the future, will the Black Iron family see the benefits and come out with him to fight for the Fire Prairie.

In that case, he is likely to be taken advantage of by the old fellow Batman.

But now he controls all the intersections of the Black Iron Earl into the Fire Prairie, so he will no longer be afraid of other people coming to grab food.

As for the Quint Castle and the White Salt Town that Batman took back, to be honest, Narant really didn't care.

He has his own castle, and it is no worse than Quint's castle now.

In the future, even if he really wanted to change the castle, Narant would have to replace it with a more spacious and comfortable one, such as the Tulip Castle.

As for the town of Baiyan, the same is true. After the population of the town was taken away, it is estimated that a thatched cottage and a few stone houses were left behind.

If so, he might as well re-plan a town himself and build it out of bricks.

Next, Narant took a group of his subordinates and headed straight to the south. Most of the wilderness he saw along the way.

And there are traces of human life, he only encountered two villages with only dozens of thatched huts, but now they are also empty.

And the surrounding arable land is also pitiful, except for a few acres of fields next to the news, other areas are occupied by woods and grasslands.

Of course, the reason why these places are so panicked is that Narant estimates that because it borders the raging grassland, the nobles dare not develop too much. If they encounter a barbarian raid, it will be a waste of time.

...

"This should be the end of the border between the Black Iron Earl and the Fire Prairie?"

When Narant and his men continued to travel for more than two hours, they finally came to a towering mountain range.

This mountain range is at least a thousand meters high, and the back is still continuous. ,

This reminded Narant of the terrain of Yungao Plateau or Xiangxi in the previous life, and there was no way before.

"My lord, that Earl Batman is too bad. Originally, the Quint Territory was a normal territory with a square shape, but now it has been replaced by a long and narrow territory that is not suitable for development at all!"

When I came to the foot of this mountain range and looked at the large grassland on the side, even Shirley Little Loli, a little girl who didn't know much about government affairs, made a sound.

There is no other reason. Most of the places I have passed along this way are deserted and need to be reclaimed.

In addition, the territory Narant got this time was at least fifty or sixty miles long, but the width at its widest point would not exceed twenty miles.

In this way If you don't say anything else, you will be able to leave the territory if you walk in both directions in the future.

This will not only affect the development of the territory, but even from a military point of view, it is extremely difficult for Narant to defend such a long and narrow territory, because there is no depth at all.

"Xue Li, who said that the lord wants to develop this territory, have you forgotten that the lord has a development order?"

Since there is no depth, create it yourself.

Narant had a better idea after knowing that Batman had given up all the boundaries of the Fire Steppe.

At that time, he will only send a few hundred serfs to the three villages, and they will live in them to show their ownership.

And the real center of gravity will be on the grasslands in this marginal area.

"My lord, although you have a development order, the grassland is not suitable for farming! Do you want to raise horses, cattle and sheep?" Catherine also interjected at the right time. She has lived on the grassland for so many years and knows that the land on the grassland is barren. Not as good as these woodlands under their feet at the moment!

"Who said that the grassland is not suitable for farming, the grassland is just not suitable for farming wheat, but it does not mean other things, such as sweet potatoes!"

This is why Narant is most fond of this grassland.

In the eyes of other nobles, the grassland can only be used for horses and sheep because it is too barren.

But here in Narant is the best sweet potato cultivation base, not only the terrain is open and flat, but also the soil system is very loose, all of which are suitable for the growing environment of sweet potatoes.

The requirements for soil fertility of sweet potatoes are not as high as those of wheat or rice, because it is a barren-tolerant plant. As long as there is sufficient sunlight, it is a big deal to feed more labor costs to ensure a bumper harvest.
