Start as Inherited Baroness

"The others stay outside. Mailan and ten heavy infantrymen, take the dog-headed priest and follow me in."

Simon drew the steel sword from his waist and ordered.

"Yes! Sir!" Everyone responded and accepted the order.

After a while, they entered a cave that was more than one person high. The cave became wider as they went in.

"Baron Sir! Look!" Mailan pointed to a stone wall in the cave and shouted.

Simon cast his eyes over there and saw dots of silver light flashing there. It was obvious that it was a silver ore with a high content.

He nodded slightly and led the people to continue walking in. Not long after, a roar suddenly came from the depths.

Following this, some vague figures approached, but they did not dare to enter the range of the white light.

"It's a corpse ghost." Simon said calmly.

The heavy infantrymen heard the words and immediately stepped forward to protect it behind them.

"Let them rest in peace." Simon ordered.

"Yes!"The heavy infantrymen heard the words and immediately rushed up with weapons and chopped and killed.

"Baron! This looks like Knight Odf!"

All the corpses were chopped to the ground, but Mailan, who came forward to check, suddenly shouted.

Simon heard this, walked over and took a closer look.

"Really! Odf actually broke in here, let's see how he died."

Simon ordered. The corpses here are of various kinds, including orcs, wild beasts and humans.

Mailan and others looked at the corpse for a while, frowned and said helplessly: "Sir, I can't tell the cause of death. It has been too long since he died.

And just now, in order to kill it, too many injuries were caused, and the heavy scales on his body were broken."

"Forget it, collect the useful things and keep moving forward!" Simon ordered.

"Yes! Sir!" Everyone responded and continued to move forward.

After about a few hundred steps, the cave came to the end, which was a pool of water. The pool was dark and seemed very deep.

Besides that, there was nothing special.

"There may be another passage in this pond, but let's stop here today.

After learning the underwater breathing technique, maybe I can come here to explore..." Simon thought to himself.

"Go back, keep everything you saw today secret.

Malan, you take this matter and declare that this is an operation to eliminate orcs." Simon ordered.

"Yes! Sir! Please rest assured, I will do it well." Mailan responded.

The group then returned along the same route.

It was already evening, and it was not easy to travel in the forest at night, so they returned to the kobold's nest and stayed overnight in the camp.

Nothing happened that night, and they successfully walked out of the Secret Forest and returned to the Courage Castle the next day.

Now the location of the silver vein has been determined, but mining still needs to be considered in the long run.

The kobold priest is still useful, so he was imprisoned in the dungeon again, but his food was improved a little.

It must be kept alive well. After all, it is still difficult for a priest who can do magic to be born among the kobolds, and he has a high influence in their group.

When it is decided to enter the forest to mine in the future, let it integrate the power of the dog-headed people to work for Master Simon and improve its own blessings...

More than a month has passed in a flash.

During this period, Milin and Yaxue gave birth one after another, the former gave birth to a girl, and the latter gave birth to a boy.

And not long after Winis and Kailin recovered, they became pregnant again.

This shows that Simon's fertility is still quite strong.

In addition, the first batch of bronze armor was produced, with a total of 600 sets.

One set includes breastplate, helmet, shoulder guard, wrist guard, arm guard, skirt armor and leg guard, lined with linen armor.

Among them, the breastplate, helmet and wrist guard are all cast in one piece, and the rest are in the form of armor, which is woven after the armor pieces are cast in batches.

These 600 sets of armor are first distributed to the Guards, the remaining East Guards account for 50%, the Patrol Army accounts for 30%, and the last 20% is given to the Security Army.

After all, the security forces were facing bandits with poor weapons, so there was no need to equip them with too good equipment.

It must be said that the bronze armor was golden and refreshing to wear. Simon even wanted to cast a set for himself as a ceremonial armor.

In addition, this month, the boundary survey officials sent by Prince Fedi came to Yongyi Territory to carry out the demarcation of the territories.

These people were all the second sons of nobles, but they were a bit old, at least fifty years old on average.

Their attitude was a bit arrogant, but they didn't dare to go too far, especially after Simon showed some force, they all became reasonable.

In short, Simon was very satisfied with the final demarcation of the border, and gave these officials some benefits before leaving, and the relationship was quite harmonious.

On this day, Simon was reading the Book of Illusions in the Lord's Hall, trying to increase his magical attainments through his own efforts.

Mailan suddenly knocked on the door and said, "Baron! Baron Werrier sent a letter."

"Hmm? This is the first time. Send it in and take a look!" Simon immediately put the Book of Illusions into the storage column and ordered.

"Yes!" Mailan responded softly, then pushed the door open and handed over a parchment letter covered with wax.

Simon first cast the spell of detecting poison, and then took it in his hand and examined it after it was found to be correct.

The seal on the wax was indeed from the family of Baron Werrier, and then he opened the envelope neatly, took out the letter and scanned the contents on it.

After a while, Simon put the letter on the table and shook his head gently.

"Hey, I don't know who gave him the idea, but he actually wants to borrow troops from me.

Verrill had a conflict with his feudal knights and used his sword. I'm afraid he couldn't control himself anymore! "

Simon smiled at Mai Lan.

Mailan also smiled, but did not interrupt. As a close guard, he was not good at politics.

"Ignore him for now. Just step back." Simon thought for a while and said.

"Yes!" Mailan bowed respectfully and left the Lord's Hall.

In fact, Verrill's letter also mentioned another thing.

The iron ore cooperation matter in the ancient tree territory of Baron Meurs fell through. He climbed up a high branch, and the Marquis of Val directly intervened in the matter.

From now on, the most I can do is use the money to buy some iron ingots, and don't think about investing in shares in the short term.

"If Marquis Val finds out about my copper mine, will it also be tampered with?"

Simon murmured a little in his heart.

"Forget it, let's take a look when the time comes. Anyway, this copper mine hasn't been publicized yet."

Simon decided to take advantage of the situation. After all, the plan could not keep up with the changes.

...

More than half a month later, the summons from Prince Feidi arrived as expected, and the person who came to deliver the letter was a feudal knight riding a griffon.

It is said that he is also a personal soldier of His Royal Highness, a direct lineage within the direct lineage.

"Lord Baron Simon, in half a month, His Highness Feidi will hold a meeting of the direct nobles. Please be sure to attend on time.

This meeting is very important and must not be treated as a child's play. "His Royal Highness's personal guard spoke forcefully and handed the letter into Mailan's hand.

Simon took it from his hand, glanced at it, and said, "No problem, I will arrive on time."

The Griffin Knight immediately took off and left without any delay.
