Early spring is the season for ice fish spawning. Over the past month, the Dalaran ice fish industry has been extremely popular. Due to this impact, it has greatly affected Lord Gerry's revenue this year.

Compared with the traditional method of Lord Gerry fishing after taking out the roe after taking out the roe, Dalaran's fish roe sauce not only tastes delicious but also lasts longer. In the beginning, the ice fish was the Merlina family's industry. With these advantages, it was naturally sought after by the nobles.

Old Gerry had just lost a lot of money and needed money to earn money, so he had to lower the price and even gave his face to visit the original old customers one by one.

This approach has increased a lot of income, but it is still not as popular as the Dalaran fish roe sauce canned industry.

With the help of Donald's knowledge in his previous life, in the canned workshop he opened, the workers steamed the containers with hot water and disinfected them. Then, with the assistance of a simple small magic array, the fresh iced fish roe was sterilized at low temperature, and the ingredients were pickled, and they were aseptic as possible. Then they tied the cover with disinfected white gauze, and finally sealed the white wax and red mud in turn, which basically cut off the inlet of air and extended the shelf life of the fish roe sauce to at least six months.

Although this tastes less fresh than the newly cured fish roe sauce, it was originally only stored for one week and had to be transported to the homes of nearby nobles by fast horses. Now, as long as the freight time is arranged reasonably, it can even be transported to the southernmost part of the mainland thousands of miles away.

This is simply a precedent for the food transportation industry and can be said to be one of the most valuable inventions in human history over the past century.

However, Donald was not worried about any trouble, because the principle of canning is very simple for ordinary mages, but no mage will apply it to processing food. He is a bit different, not only a mage, but also a lord, so it won't attract much attention when it comes to making these.

After the canned workshop was opened, not only did it gain a lot of money, but it also provided people in the territory with opportunities to work. Just like the workshops before, it was greatly welcomed by the residents of the territory. People were proud to be able to work in the workshops of Lord Lord.

What Donald wants is not only a delicacy of caviar, but also an advanced production concept of canned food, but the shelf life of other foods after they canned food will be greatly extended. Especially for soldiers marching and fighting, nothing is more energetic than enjoying a delicious meal of hot and nutritious food.

Donald remembers that the invention of canned food in his previous life was first used in military aspects. If a batch of marching canned food is made into space equipment, the army in his own territory will basically not have to worry about logistics food when going out to fight in the future.

Moreover, this kind of canned marching can be sold in large quantities to the army of the Kingdom and other nobles. Although the price is low, the cost is low. If it is sold in large quantities, it will be small and quick to sell, and the profit is still very considerable, at least it will make more money than most ordinary products in the manor. In contrast, the Alchemy Fire Equipment Store is just a gimmick to attract outside adventurers and does not expect it to make much money. Greenhouse vegetables also have seasonal restrictions. Therefore, the canned industry will definitely become the fourth largest economic pillar of Dalaran, second only to Moonlight Wine, black tea and caviar.

It was more than a month after the Wudong River and Moonlight Lake water source were connected. Donald was accompanied by William to inspect the protection of Moonlight Lake and the construction of the island in the heart of the lake.

"good!"

Looking at the clear lake water and the residents who fetched water by the lake, Donald nodded with satisfaction.

William complimented: "This is all the gift of Lord Lord, and the leaders spontaneously abide by the laws. To this day, except for a few adventurers from other places, no local leaders who violated the laws have been found!" At the beginning, Donald issued a territorial water source protection law for the newly opened water sources, prohibiting the dumping of garbage and dirt into the water, and violators will be tortured.

The residents of the territory also knew that this was their own drinking water place, so they spontaneously cherished this rare water source. Even foreign merchants and adventurers dared to pollute water sources under the supervision of the leaders and the deterrence of this strict law.

The two cases found were caused by inattention and were not very serious, so they were just fined and did not really use whip.

However, for ordinary adventurers, the fines of dozens of Kingsols are undoubtedly a huge sum of money, and they can't make any money in less than a few years. With these two precedents, others dare not do it freely.

The water of Wudong River is relatively cold and will not freeze under the influence of natural barriers. It also has the dual function of purification array and the Spring of Life, which is very suitable for the survival of ice fish. Many people have discovered traces of ice fish these days. It is just because of the ban on fishing order issued by the lord, so I can only see and not take action, otherwise I would have started fishing a lot.

Donald also discovered signs of young ice fish appearing downstream in Moonlight Lake today. It is now the end of the ice fish spawning period. Ordinary female ice fish can produce hundreds to thousands of eggs at a time. The earliest eggs are big and have grown to the size of fingers. More young fish will grow one after another.

"I believe that in a few years, Dalaran should become the largest ice fish settlement in the north." Take a carriage and march down the Wudong River. The Wudong River is now only wider than a stream and has not yet reached the standard of sailing. After the water flow is abundant in the future, you can take a boat down the river.

Soon the carriage arrived at Fengling Village, and Wudong River came from the west and surrounded half of the village. This was equivalent to a disguised moat. Although the river channel was only a dozen steps wide, it was enough to hinder foreign troops. Donald designed it like this to create a barrier for the territory's gate.

As for the issue of travel, he used the very convenient spell of turning mud into stone. He built a solid stone bridge that was more than ten meters wide and was enough to accommodate five carriages in parallel before the entrance of Fengling Village. He also built a sentry tower on both sides of the bridge, and sent people to garrison it to monitor the pedestrians.

Soon, this novel stone bridge became the symbol of Fengling Village, and Fengling Village also became the gateway of Dalaran in the eyes of outsiders. Many people came to Dalaran for nothing else, but just wanted to see the scenery of the stone bridge, Wudong River and Moonlight Lake. This greatly increased the flow of foreign population in Dalaran.

Seeing the people coming and going on the stone bridge, William exclaimed: "It's still Lord Lord that the stone bridge you built is both wide and strong. The collapse of the wooden bridge built in Hongfeng Town two days ago was said to be caused by heavy carriages. Fortunately, the river water was not deep, so no people died, and only some goods were lost!"

Donald smiled slightly and said, "That is the son of the baron merchant. Unless it is related to wealth and life, everything else is mainly about saving. This time it is a lesson. William, you must remember that the leadership of the people is the foundation for our strength. If you consider the leadership of the people in advance, they will naturally bring more rewards to the territory!"

William nodded in a slight sense of understanding. He still didn't dare to fully agree with Donald's concept of his previous life, because the concept of hierarchy in this world has been deeply rooted and many can be easily broken.

Donald looked at William without saying anything. He did not intend to do anything in another world. Freedom just simply wanted to be better for his subordinates. After all, even a developed society like his previous life could not solve the class problem. And these subordinates still implemented the elite plan...

Therefore, it is even more impossible to just oppress the noble lords who are rich and unkind.

After leaving the Fengling Town Bridge, William immediately asked, "Sir, can you continue to patrol down?"

William asked this because the river section below had already left his own territory, which belonged to the Baron Red Maple.

Just as Donald was about to speak, he heard a rush of horse hooves coming from behind. Donald, who was interrupted, looked back and found that the visitor seemed to be a member of the guard team in his territory.

"It's Mark from the Guards that was so anxious that something might have happened. I'll call him over!"

Donald nodded, and William fell out of the carriage and waved to the guard militia Mark.

The young man named Mark came closer and turned over and got off the horse. He didn't care about sweating and said anxiously with a breath.

"Mr. William has found you! Is Lord Lord in the car?"

"What urgent happened when the lord lost his man?"

Mark was overjoyed when he heard this. At this time, Donald also walked out of the carriage. Mark immediately paid homage to the lord and told the matter.

"Lord Lord, Lord Clinton asked me to inform you that a team of adventurers encountered multiple monsters in the Green Cloak Forest. Two people have died. The injured fled back to the town and are now in emergency treatment in the Adventurers Guild. Lord Clinton said the situation is more urgent. Please go back immediately, sir!"

"Monster attack? Isn't it a monster?" Donald said with his chin moaned.

"I heard it's not a monster, but Lord Clinton blocked the news. Only the adventurers and several adults who came back knew the details!"

"Very good, you did a good job, I'll go back soon!"

After saying that, he stopped riding in the carriage and disappeared directly in front of William and others with a teleportation technique.

The guard militiaman Mark, who was praised by Donald, lost his humble words and said to himself: "Lord has praised me, Lord has praised me."

Seeing this situation, William patted Mark on the shoulder with some amusement, and said, "Do work hard, don't be proud, you have a future!" Then he got on the carriage and rushed back to the lord's mansion. What happened in the territory was basically the government official, so he had to rush back quickly to share the worries of the lord.

"Yes! Lord William!"

Mark, who was awakened, immediately came to his senses and looked at his bright and energetic appearance, which looked like an elite soldier.

Chapter 164: A light flashed in front of the dark creature adventurers guild, and Donald, wearing ordinary noble costume, appeared there, and then walked directly into the guild gate without hesitation.

Donald's appearance surprised a group of adventurers outside watching the fun.

An adventurer from other places had never seen Donald and couldn't help but scream, "Oh my God! Why did that person suddenly appear?"

An adventurer immediately said disdainfully: "No knowledge! That is a teleportation spell. I heard that it can appear anywhere a hundred miles away at will, whether it is escaping or rushing to travel, it is an extremely powerful spell. How great would it be if I could have this ability!"

On the other side, someone continued to say, "Don't dream, I have traveled all over the country and visited most places in Selt, and I only saw this Lord, a mage with such ability. I have never heard of any other similar rumors. I am worthy of being the youngest bronze mage, the first genius mage in the kingdom, and the great hero to fight against orcs!"

At this time, the adventurer who had been surprised before came to his senses: "You said that is the local lord? That Baron Melina?"

"Are there any other noble mages that young?"

All the adventurers around looked at this person with contempt, as if they knew that these were superior.

Some adventurers also said, "Look at the Lord who came so anxiously, it should be for the affairs of the Wind Team and the others?"

A senior adventurer analyzed: "Yes! It must be so. The Wind Team is very strong. With their strength, unless they encounter high-level monsters above level 5, there will definitely be no such great casualties. However, the Wind Team is all experienced veterans and generally avoids the territory of powerful monsters. It is very likely that they will suffer such great losses if they encounter some sudden situations!"

Then the person nodded and said confidently: "Something must have happened, and the opportunity for us adventurers has come again!"

The adventurers around him felt it was very reasonable when they heard this analysis, so they immediately took action to inquire about the news and prepare equipment.

Not to mention the adventurers' foresight, just saying that Donald was immediately invited to the room where several supervisors were in after he arrived at the Adventurers Guild.

In the room, a wounded man with a pale face and blood was lying there in a daze. When he saw Clinton's face cold, Sauger frowned, and the mage Diner was irritated and circled around in the same place.

In addition to the injured person who was so fainted, there were several other injured adventurers in the room. The injuries were not so serious. It seemed that they had recovered well after treatment.

"Lord is here!"

Hearing the voices of the people outside, the waiter in the room hurriedly greeted Donald.

After entering the room, Donald glanced at it and learned about the situation.

Clinton reported the situation without waiting for Donald to ask.

"Master, these are all members of the Wind Team. This time they were injured when they encountered monster attacks in the Green Cloak Forest!"

Donald waved his hand and said, "Don't be too busy discussing the attack, talk about their injuries!"

The two adventurers of the Wind Squad immediately felt something when they heard this. Diner rushed to say: "The two people over there were no major problems with their injuries after simply treating them with the life potion. However, this person, in addition to losing too much blood, seemed to have been infected with strange toxins in his wounds. Ordinary life potions can only restore their vitality and have little effect on this toxin! I have tried the antidote made by Murray, but they are not effective for this toxin!"

Donald said: "Have he seen it in the teacher?"

Diner shook his head and said, "Master Messel and Chris, three silver mages, went to the Rock Club together before they could not inform them!"

Donald nodded and came to the injured person. The divine vision he had obtained not long ago was immediately opened.

After seeing this, I saw a problem.

I saw that the wounded man had a black aura in his abdomen and arms, which was attached to the wound like mist. It was these black mists that prevented the wound from healing. Otherwise, with the recovery speed of the life potion he could exchange for when he sold Alchemy Fire and placed in the Adventurers Guild using honor points, such injuries should be healed in only two bottles.

"I know what's the reason! His injury is not poisoning. Well, it's okay to say it's poisoning, but it's not an ordinary toxin, but the dark element eroding the wound. What they encounter must be an evil creature who masters the power of darkness!"

Hearing Donald say this, everyone present was shocked except Clinton!

The power of darkness is a power that rarely appears in the main world. Unlike those demons who control the power of chaos and evil, the simple power of darkness is generally only available to some evil god believers, underground monsters or creatures in other worlds. Apart from seeking help from priests and mages, there are basically no other treatment methods.

"Lord, please ask you to save Brian, we are willing to pay any price!"

Seeing the hope and deep requests in the eyes of the two adventurers, Donald nodded and said, "Don't worry, it's easy to save him, Clinton, you order someone to call Uther!

While Uther arrived, you will tell me what happened. I want to see what dark creature dares to come to my territory to hurt people and cause trouble!"

He had long investigated the situation around the territory and deep in the Green Cloak Forest, and basically did not find any humanoid creatures other than monsters. The only number of zombies and other half-orcs gathered in the relatively warm area of ​​the rocky granite hills in the western part of the North County. It was blocked by the Bloodstone Fortress, and rarely attacked human territory.

Therefore, I was still a little angry at the sudden attack on monsters near the territory.

The two adventurers looked at each other, and then one of them said, "Lord, our Wind Team is also well-known in the North County area. After hearing that the Adults created the Adventurers Guild, they came to Dalaran to try their luck and rely on the blessings of the Adults. They also gained a lot during this period. Unexpectedly, this time it was just a simple herb collection task, and they did not go deep into the territory of advanced monsters, and they actually lost two teammates!"

When the adventurer said this, he and his companions felt a little sad, and then continued: "After we were planning to collect herbs, we planned to hunt a few low-level monsters to earn some extra income, but suddenly we heard a loud sound, just like the sound of a house collapsed. We arrived strangely, there should be no large creatures nearby, so we looked in the direction where the sound came!"

"Walking straight in the direction of the sound, I soon arrived at an ordinary small valley. It was hidden and covered by mountains and forests. If we hadn't heard the sound, we wouldn't have found it if we weren't going to go around the forest for a few rounds! After arriving at the valley, we found that the reason for the previous sound was that it was an earthquake or some creature on the ground, which caused a hole that was wide for several people, and was surrounded by broken soil and rocks."

"Just when we came near the cave, seven or eight monsters suddenly popped up from it!

These monsters all look like enlarged lizards, covered with black scales, but they all stand on their feet like humans. They are all wearing clothing and leather armor, and they also have weapons in their hands."
