Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 577: Chapter 27: The Fire Rabbit Harvest and the Knights’ Restlessness (Part 4)

”The Fur Heart-Protecting Talisman has already been sold, bought by a wealthy human merchant for 8 Golden Crowns and 70 Silver Coins.”

”The Ashen Language Divination Tube wasn’t sold; it was requested by Lord Handsome Gilles, the leader of the Black Steel Redemption Knight Order. He submitted an application to the Provincial Affairs Council, claiming that this item could help him find many goblin and Goblins’ hidden treasure points in the forest.”

With the Provincial Affairs Council’s approval, the Pasture Master certainly couldn’t resist. Besides, Gilles’ request was indeed very reasonable. Since last winter, humans have actively explored the Blood Pine Forest.

The place is filled with various evil Wizard Towers and ruins, making it an excellent opportunity for territorial exploration and treasure hunting.

At Ali’s suggestion, many people from the territory went to compete in drinking with the Dwarf Demigod Gaucric.

Master Gao welcomed all comers, and many suspected he just wanted to take the opportunity to drink more.

Still, even when several hundred knights from the territory competed with him in drinking, he managed to drink them all under the table.

With the passing of winter, up until the end of the Spring Brings Life to All Things ceremony, only a scant seven people had obtained the [Treasure Hunter] talent.

Gilles was indeed one of them, making his request for the Ashen Language Divination Tube perfectly justified.

Su Li hadn’t focused on the details, but Hilude mentioned it in passing. In the past half month, Gilles led the Black Steel Redemption Knight Order actively in the forest, slaying many monsters, clearing numerous evil Wizard Towers, and amassing wealth close to 600 Golden Crowns.

If every warband from the territory could match his speed in earning money, Su Li would have no worries at all; the army could even generate enough income to sustain itself, with some profit to bolster Su Li’s wealth.

For Gilles taking this witchcraft item, Su Li had no objections, as he also hoped Gilles could find some valuable things among the piles of artifacts.

As long as there are enough opportunities, finding several ounces of Vibranium, a few gemstones, or even one or two perfect-grade weapons is certain to happen!

The forest holds so many riches that some lucky person is bound to find some valuable treasures.

And Gilles was playing the role of scavenger dispatched by Su Li, able to gather all those random scraps, treasures, and wealth.

Subsequently, Su Li asked, ”And the last item? Was that saddle cushion sold?”

”As for the Fire-Ribbed Saddle Curtain, it hasn’t been sold yet. The main reason is it’s too popular, with knights from the Corona Knight Order and Hesse Forbidden Guard Knight competing for it. The bid is already at 176 Golden Crowns. Right now, it’s become a hot potato, with the Provincial Affairs Council concerned that selling it to one side might incite dissatisfaction and rebellion from the other.”

Su Li laughed; the knights are indeed like that.

They’re always proud and domineering, yielding to no one. They vividly illustrate the idea that beneath the Goddess, all are ants, and above the iron hooves, I am the supreme.

Excluding the Goddess and Su Li, they show a demeanor of unwillingness to lose to anyone.

If one side wins the ownership of this witchcraft saddle curtain merely through wealth, the other side will undoubtedly seize it back by force, even if it means breaking it. If they can’t have it themselves, they certainly won’t let the opponent keep it only to return and flaunt it.

So Su Li thought for a moment and said, ”They won’t rebel. But as there wasn’t any large-scale warfare this year, these knights have indeed pent-up energy from daily training and honing. Without letting them vent some of it, trouble might indeed arise.”

”Let me solve this issue. Have someone send a message to the Provincial Affairs Council to send the witchcraft item to the Lion Ring and hang it at the highest point of the arena. After the harvest season, we will hold our grand Sun Goddess Church celebration!”

It’s time for the territory to create a unique festival belonging to Hesse Territory.
