Karl squinted his eyes and saw Allen who seemed a little anxious. He slapped his forehead and said, "God forgive me for my negligence. Juliana, please ask someone to take my respected blacksmith to the blacksmith shop.

It will be a base for him to study good things."

Allen breathed a sigh of relief. Although he knew that Karl would not deceive him, he would not feel at ease until the day was truly settled.

"Juliana, how many people are there in my territory?" Karl asked again.

"There are nine hundred and thirty-five of us in total." Juliana answered without hesitation. She could even name all of them.

Silder Manor is a standard one-village structure. This manor is more for the purpose of better ruling the village. It is good to have so many people.

"Not enough, far from enough." Karl shook his head. Although Seld Manor was good, it was far from what he expected.

"We need more population. Only a sufficient population can provide us with soldiers and tax revenue."

"Sir Sir, if we increase the population, we may not be able to feed them." Juliana said awkwardly. Territory management is not just about adding more people. It also needs to allow them to live and work in peace and contentment.

"You're right. Before that, we need to expand my territory's ability to feed the population. Maybe I have to start farming..." Karl pondered.

"Juliana, I hope you will arrange for a group of people to reclaim wasteland. If I read correctly, we should still have a lot of wasteland that can be developed here." Karl thought for a while and said.

Juliana was a little happy. The lord who came was a lord who wanted to develop the territory, not just enjoy it.

"Sir Sir, I think if wasteland is to be reclaimed, water conservancy projects are necessary!" Juliana suggested.

"Water conservancy? Juliana, do you have any suggestions?" Karl asked, this was not an area he was good at.

"Yes, I have an idea. Sir, please wait a moment." Juliana walked to the side room excitedly and took out a piece of paper with a bunch of patterns scribbled on it.

Carl took it and took a look and was stunned. Isn't this a waterwheel? Although it was a bit crude, Karl could clearly know that this was a waterwheel!

"Hahaha, Juliana, you are a genius, but there are some things you can change." Carl couldn't wait, looked around, picked up the pen on the side, dipped it in ink, and started making bold strokes on the paper.

Juliana felt a little regretful. When she saw Karl scribbling on her favorite thing, she wanted to stop him but didn't dare.

"Juliana, what do you think about it now?" Karl soon made corrections and handed the drawing over again.

Feeling distressed, Juliana borrowed the paper and read it, but the next moment she was stunned.

"This, this, this... this is really perfect!" Juliana exclaimed. After Karl's modifications, the drawings actually solved many of her problems.

"Sir Sir, I didn't expect you to have such an ability." Berg, who was standing by, saw Juliana's amazed look and knew that Karl might have designed something extraordinary.

"Sir, Sir, is Carl, who is known as the Miracle." Kevin laughed.

Karl was a little embarrassed. He was plagiarizing the wisdom of the ancients.

"Juliana, you follow this blueprint and build some waterwheels."

"No problem, my lord, I will arrange for someone to go." Juliana nodded, she was already a little eager to try.

Although the previous lord also asked her to manage the manor, he did not allow her to build these things, which made her always regretful.

"Maybe it's a good thing that this nobleman is here..." Juliana thought of this unconsciously.

"Okay, just follow what I just told you." Karl waved his hand. People like Kevin would definitely need time to adapt when they were new here, and he was the same.

"Julianna, take me on a tour of my territory. I want to have a good inspection." Karl said, this kind of thing depends on people like Juliana who have been rooted here for a long time.

"Okay, my lord, please follow me." Juliana made a guiding gesture, and Karl followed behind her.

"Lord, Lady Juliana."

Along the way, the farmers bent down and saluted Karl and Juliana, seemingly very respectful.

But Karl knew that these farmers probably hated him to death, because in their opinion, they might be able to live better without people like him.

But it can only be said that it is yes and no. Without him, the farmers do not have to pay taxes, but correspondingly they also lose their asylum. Once foreign plunder occurs, they will definitely die.

But Juliana seemed to be very prestigious or trusted by the farmers. They were serious about Juliana, which Karl could still see.

"It seems that I have an amazing butler..." Carl's eyes flashed with strange colors. Julianna is a talent, but now he suddenly doesn't want to trust her, and even has a sense of crisis...

Karl was shocked, he actually had some murderous intention just now!

"I'm afraid of Juliana..." Karl whispered in his heart. It has been a long time since he came to this world. Now he has gradually integrated into it and become a member of the nobles, both in terms of status and ideology.

And what do the nobles fear most? There is no doubt that someone threatens their rule!

Karl sighed, he suddenly missed the era of technology.

The village of Silder is not small, but it is not too big either. Accompanied by Juliana, I quickly walked around, seeing the orderly farmhouses and the villagers coming and going, with the sunshine shining through the clouds and the wild flowers blowing in the wind.

The beautiful pastoral scenery is natural.

"This is really a beautiful territory, and I am proud to be the lord here." Karl said with a smile.

"It's great that you like that." Juliana responded with a smile.

Karl visited the bakery again, and those black breads were being produced continuously. The black bread of this era was not delicious, at least it was difficult for Karl to swallow, but it was also beyond the reach of many people.

"Maybe I should put some effort into the food..." Karl touched his chin. All his people were so skinny, mainly because the food in this era was too expensive.

"Go to the livestock farm." Karl made up his mind, but as soon as he walked over, he was hit by a stench.

The environment in the livestock farm was very poor, with various animal feces everywhere, and even Karl suspected that there were human feces.

"Oh my god, how many bacteria are there..." Karl shook his head.

"Bacteria? What is that?" Juliana was a little confused. She had not heard the words in the lord's mouth.

"Please ignore my statement, but I may have some general information."

"Lady Juliana, this is..."

Several farmers came over and were a little confused when they saw Carl. He was an unfamiliar face, but the luxurious clothes showed that his identity was not simple.

"This is your lord, the ruler of Sild Manor and the village, Sir Carl Dias." Juliana said quickly.

"Ah? Lord Lord?" The farmers were also startled, and for a moment it seemed like they had nowhere to put their hands.

"Okay, no need to be polite, but I think you should clean up the feces here." Karl said.

"Ah..." The farmers were a little embarrassed.

"What do we breed here?" Carl asked.

"There are pigs. We raise a lot of pigs, and of course we also raise a lot of chickens." The farmers answered immediately.

"Are there any pigs? That's really good." Karl nodded. Pigs are indeed a very good choice. Pigs that are meaty and good-looking are loved by farmers.

"Okay, you can continue working." The most important thing for Karl was to understand the situation. After understanding the situation, he naturally left.

"You should compensate me! This belongs to me, but you stole it!"

"I just took some, I don't need compensation!"

At this moment, Karl heard a burst of noise. He looked over and saw two farmers making a big fuss, almost starting a fight. Many farmers gathered around them, regardless of their nature to watch the excitement.

It's the same everywhere.

"What happened?" Karl stepped forward. When the farmers saw Karl with Juliana, they quickly moved out of the way.

"Lord, we..." The two quarreling farmers were startled when they saw Karl, and wanted to say something.

"Okay, why did you have a dispute just now? Tell me your conflict and I will solve it." Karl waved his hand, he didn't want to hear any lies.

"Lord, he, damn Frances, he stole my food and trampled on my crops!" A middle-aged farmer scolded Frances across from him.

"Laura, how could I do something like that? You are spitting blood!" Frances yelled, but his voice seemed a little uneasy.

Karl's eyes narrowed slightly. He already roughly knew what happened, but it was obvious that some people didn't want to admit it.

"Everyone, have you seen what happened?" Karl asked the farmers on the roadside.

"No, we didn't see..." The farmers shook their heads, but Karl heard some whispers.

"France always likes to do this kind of thing, I guess it's him again this time."

"No one saw it, it's a bit difficult now..." Karl smiled slightly, pretending to do something difficult.

Seeing this gesture, Florence instantly gained confidence.

But the next moment, Karl's expression changed and he said: "Then, let's go to Florence's house together and see if there are any clues?"

Frances's face changed drastically and he wanted to stop him, but he saw Karl's cold eyes.

His heart dropped, knowing that the matter was serious and that this nobleman was really going to kill him.
