Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord - Chapter 277

277 Rapid Development of the Agricultural Area

Xu Yuan felt that things were going to get even more difficult than before. Su Wan was still weak. She was stronger than the other Overlords right now, but when compared to the Light and the Dark-Types, she wasn’t even worth the mention. She needed to get stronger.

Unfortunately, Su Wan’s potential was very limited. It was impossible for her to grow rapidly. She could only do it gradually.

Xu Yuan was confident that Su Wan could stand by his side when he reached his peak. However, that would take too long.

Xu Yuan couldn’t change the rules of the Overlord Plane. He had to find other ways to help Su Wan get stronger.

!!
He sighed. ‘Are there no shortcuts?’

If Su Wan could gain experience points in her sleep like him, she would level up quickly.

“Xu Yuan, I am coming!” Su Wan appeared out of the shower in a milky-white pajama, which revealed her pale white thighs. It seemed Eliza had given her quite a shock.

…

The next morning, Su Wan scouted the territory to find a suitable location to build arrow towers. “When we have enough resources, we will start construction immediately.”

[Hurricane Arrow Tower Construction Requirement: 50,000 gold coins, wood, stone, and iron ore. 500 crystals. 500 gems. 500 Mercuries.]

Right now, she didn’t have enough resources.

The Red-Eyed Black Dragon was particularly excited. He was assigned with finding suitable staff for the food workshop and the winery. He had to choose carefully.

He was short of some resources to get going on recruiting the staff for these two places.

Su Wan was convinced that she needed to set up some form of trade to earn resources. The quickest way to earn resources was from trading. She needed something attractive enough for people to spend money on. Hunting and exploring weren’t reliable sources to earn resources in the long term.

The first thing was to have something that would attract people. To produce higher quality goods, Su Wan needed someone with talent and skills.

She had no choice but to turn to Eliza.

Eliza was quite skilled and business-minded. She was adept at negotiating with people, especially men. Su Wan knew that Eliza could solve the problem of the food workshop and the winery in no time.

At least the Hundred Night Flower Honey and the Dragon Drool Grass were expanding rapidly in amount. There was a limit to how much honey the Night Devil Bees could produce at a time. However, there was no such restriction for the Dragon Drool Grass.

Su Wan had a hunch that these two things will be their money-making source. Dragon Drool Grass was a medicinal herb that had a very quick and useful effect. Everyone would surely covet it.

When she walked out of the Dark Castle, the residents of her territory bowed to her respectfully. Some pressed their fists to their chest to express their admiration.

Su Wan nodded and acknowledged them as she passed by. The territory had clearly become prosperous under her leadership.

It was crowded, to say the least. Some of the residents still weren’t familiar with the place. However, when they saw other residents bowing and saluting Su Wan, they followed suit.

Su Wan headed to the agricultural area. As she got near, she saw some parts that were scorched because of yesterday’s incident.

Most crops had ripened. They could be harvested within two days.

The agricultural section was vast. Auntie Green, who was responsible for the management of the area, smiled at her as she approached.

“This must be a blessing from the gods!” Auntie Green exclaimed. “Those d*mned vultures! If I hadn’t run fast enough, I wouldn’t be here today to greet you.”

“Those vultures will soon be turned into fertilizers for the area. I promise you that,” said Su Wan.

Auntie Green smiled happily. “My Lord, you should check on the Night Devil Bees, The queen bee has many nests. You are really smart. You even knew that they would split their nests.”

Su Wan nodded and turned to leave. As she walked further toward the vast field, the Night Devil Bees swarmed over.

Su Wan reached their nest and estimated the amount of the Hundred Night Flower Honey that had been produced.

There were ten empty wooden boxes placed around the main nest. It was prepared in advance for the bees to slit their nest.

However, Su Wan realized that the yield of the honey wasn’t as she had expected. She turned to look at the field and saw the part of the land which was burned and blackened because of the Venom Vultures.

Her gaze turned cold. ‘The Light-Types and the vultures deserve death!’ This was absolutely unforgivable.

She walked further into the fields toward the rice plantation. The ears were already blooming. It wouldn’t be long before they could harvest the rice as well.

There were around ten residents who were tending to the crops. The plants swayed in the gentle breeze.

The fields were so full of life that it made Su Wan feel happy.

The scene filled with vitality made her feel better. She had exchanged many resources for 100 mu of rice and wheat.

The rice was planted last month. The crops were already growing bountifully. She could harvest it soon. She felt relaxed when she saw that everything was turning out alright. She could use certain treasures to rush the harvesting period of the crops. However, she didn’t think it was necessary.

She had already used the treasure to rush the harvesting period for the Dragon Fruits, solely because she needed them to flower as soon as possible. It was necessary because the Night Devil bees had to collect nectar from the flowers.

She walked into the paddy field. They were all so lush and green that it made Su Wan giddy with happiness. This was what she had always wanted. The green crops represented life and vitality. She then walked to the wheat field to check.

Su Wan went to meet Auntie Green once again. She urged her to assign more people to the fields so that more attention could be given to the well-being of the crops.

Aunt Green agreed to do it. She was in charge of the fields, and she liked her job.

Auntie Green had been managing the fields for a while now. There had been no problems under her management till now. So, Su Wan trusted her.
