In order to ensure that the territory could operate smoothly and healthily even if he left, Feng Chou set up a small council in New Amborite. The mayor of the port town, the president of the court, the judge, the director of the port authority, the chief of the territorial police, the mayor of the agricultural town, the manager of the woolen mill, the manager of the brewery, the manager of the oil refinery, the manager of the agricultural company, Knight Owen and Knight Natasha, etc.
He appointed Chapman as the chairman.
The chairman was only the presiding officer of the council, and his authority did not exceed that of the other council members.
Chapman had completed his mission of recruiting citizens three months ago and returned to New Amborite to take up the role of the chief steward of New Amborite.
Feng Chou also set up an audit office and an investigation committee under the council to monitor the operation of the territory. He also made it clear that the court was the same level as the town hall and was only responsible to the town council. It also had the authority and responsibility to supervise officials at all levels.
Feng Chou imitated the political system of Earth and built a political framework for the territory to restrict and supervise each other.
After adjusting the political framework of the territory and fixing it in the form of the territorial law, Feng Chou left New Amborite with a group of apprentices and returned to Casablanca.
In Casablanca, Owen had already followed the request in Feng Chou's letter half a month ago and rented a medium-sized magic cargo ship. He also bought a ship's cargo according to the list and stored it in the warehouse rented at the docks.
This morning, Feng Chou followed Owen to the warehouse at the docks.
The warehouse was neatly stacked with wooden boxes that were two meters by two meters. Most of these boxes were filled with ordinary goods, such as steel ingots and plates used to forge weapons and armor, as well as the leather of low-level magical beasts. These leather were obtained by rearing low-level magical beasts. Many territories near Casablanca would rear such magical beasts, which were an important source of income for some territories. There were also canvas and cotton cloth used to make sails. The climate of Casablanca was suitable for planting sisal and cotton, and canvas and cotton cloth were important export commodities. Of course, there was also Casablanca Golden Wine …
A few of the chests were filled with unenchanted steel weapons and armor.
These unenchanted steel weapons and armor were usually used to equip elite ordinary soldiers. A set of them was worth close to three hundred crowns.
Owen took the account book and introduced the quantity of the goods to Feng Chou. Under Feng Chou's request, he opened a few boxes and checked the goods inside.
After checking that there were no errors, Feng Chou took the account book from Owen.
Taking the account of the account book meant that Feng Chou had approved of the goods, and Owen's responsibilities.
After finding an excuse to send Owen and his subordinates away, Feng Chou's office, and stayed to stay alone in the warehouse for a while.
If someone was still in the warehouse at this moment, they would be shocked to see that following Feng Chou's gaze, boxes suddenly fell from the ground like a door had suddenly opened on the ground.
In a short period of time, hundreds of boxes.
In the next moment, hundreds of chests fell from the sky, filling the place of the first few hundred chests.
After exchanging the goods, Feng Chou left the harbor and called for a rental carriage, heading toward the headquarters of the Sword of Samar Mercenary Team.
The headquarters of the Sword of Samar Mercenary Team was located in a commercial building near the western harbor.
It was a slightly old three-story commercial building. Because it was far from the main street, the street in front of the building was narrower and quieter.
Feng Chou met Captain Shi Duhua in an office on the second floor.
When he heard that Feng Chou wanted to transport a batch of goods to Tailun City, Captain Shi Duhua did not waste any time, stating a relatively reasonable price. Feng Chou also agreed to the other party's price after some consideration.
Over the past two years, Feng Chou and the Sword of Samar had worked together a lot. Whether it was the patrol team of the Wood Manor, or the guards of the goods traveling between Casablanca and the New Amborite, Feng Chou had appointed the Sword of Samar to be in charge of them.
The Alvindale River was a relatively safe water transportation route, as the two sides of the Alvindale River were mostly mature human territories. Thus, the greatest danger when traveling on the river was the merfolk in the river.
The merfolk in the Alvindale River were famous for their large numbers. Fortunately, the merfolk were not very talented, and there were very few high-level fighters in their tribe. Even if there were high-level fighters, they would not be as powerful as human fighters of the same level who were well-equipped.
In order to ensure the safety of this batch of goods, Feng Chou gave Natasha a set of + 5 equipment, and gave her his original Black Steel Automatic Rifle. This type of repeating rifle was obviously a great advantage when dealing with enemies like the merfolk, who were numerous and of poor quality.
After two years of hard training, Natasha was already a half-step high-order warrior. In addition to her Steel Soul Style martial arts, she was not inferior to an ordinary high-order warrior.
In addition to the weapons, Feng Chou also gave Natasha the 30 odd apprentices he had brought from the territory. Among these apprentices, more than half were knight apprentices.
After more than a year of training, more than a dozen of these knight apprentices had successfully advanced to mid-order warriors. These first to advance were undoubtedly the seeds of the legendary realm.
To be honest, these knight apprentices almost made Natasha doubt her life. In order to hide their rapid progress, Feng Chou had no choice but to change a batch of teachers every once in a while. Only Feng Chou and Natasha knew that this group of youths had advanced to mid-order warriors in just over a year.
This time, Feng Chou brought these geniuses out. In addition to equipping them with + 3 weapons and armor, he also gave each of them a rear-loading bolt rifle.
The general principle of this type of rifle was similar to the bolt rifles on Earth. Bullets were loaded through the movement of the bolt back and forth. The difference was that this type of rifle used paper shell bullets instead of copper shell bullets.
The so-called paper shell bullets were made by using a paper tube to roll the gunpowder and the bullet together. The bullet was at the front of the paper tube, and the gunpowder was at the back.
The bullet head of the paper shell bullet was also different from the ball bullets commonly seen on the market. It was in the shape of a sharp cone, very similar to the bullet head of the copper shell bullet on Earth, but there were several parallel V-shaped grooves at the end of the bullet head.
This type of bullet had a very important position in the history of Earth. It was called "Mini Bullet".
The diameter of this type of bullet would be slightly larger than the diameter of the barrel. When it was forcefully pushed into the barrel by the gunpowder, the bullet would be pressed against the wall of the barrel, and the surface of the bullet would be embedded in the rifling in the barrel. Under the action of the rifling, the bullet would rotate, thus increasing the flying stability of the bullet. The V-shaped groove at the end of the bullet was to make it easier for the bullet to be squeezed and deformed.
