Chapter 96: Estate Development (2) (1/2)

Chapter 96: Estate Develop period of time, but it also wasn’t a short period of tidoe of extinction due to the past war, had recovered at an alar rate, and now, the country was so vibrant it seemed like it was a time of renaissance rather than recovery

Of the dom over the past two years, one of them was that Princess Leila had officially ascended the throne Instead of i the throne, she had spent one year searching for King August, but he couldn’t be found and never appeared In the end, Princess Leila becadom with the support of the people She was Queen Leila von Lester

Even before she became queen, she had incredible support from both the nobles and the coitiave in

She quickly stabilized her country using all the power and authority available to her She gavethe northern borders, and did her best to restore the war-torn country Her priority in restoring the country was to focus on the lives of the people Most striking of all was the instructions she gave during the restoration of the capital

[The Royal Palace can be fixed last, so focus on restoring the homes of the co the commoners’ homes to be restored before the royal palace It ithout saying how much louder the people’s support for her became While Queen Leila received absolute support from the people, there was one other person as just as popular That person was Marquis Milton Forrest

By the time he had defeated the Republicans and saved the country, Milton had become the country’s hero However, it is said that a herotimes of peace But Milton was different

Milton’s territory, the Forrest Territory, was designated as the temporary Capital He had also successfully embraced the rapid influx of new people into his population Although it had cost an enormous amount of money, Milton had accepted all of the there; they had both a house and job in Forrest Territory Even if the Capital was completely restored, it was questionable how many of them would want to return

In the past, Forrest Territory had been treated as the countryside in the Southern Region, but now, it had developed to the extent that it was treated as the second Capital The e part in the development of the territory

The sea trade that Milton had secretly - at least that’s what’s said - started was a huge success In less than half a year, he had taken over all the sea routes connecting Florence Principality and the Gloucester Kingdo a sea route connecting to the Waterport Kingdo that no one in the Lester Kingdoend Of course behind this success was Milton’s momentum as he pushed for active support whenever the ex-pirate Robin, orked hard to get rid of his curse by even reducing his sleeping time, showed effort and achievement

Anyway, Milton’shit The areat that Sophia soon had to expand the port Once things progressed, the rest flowed sood wind Once the size of the port increased, the distribution of goods were concentrated and jobs increased And once more money flowed into the economy, it naturally led to the development of coave the businesses a tax cut Other nobles ht have raised taxes on such a lucrative opportunity, but Milton was the opposite And it worked out perfectly for hidom’s merchants, but the merchants of other countries all ca taxes had led to e amounts ofit sit idly The defense expenditure for the Northern Ar the Capital And in addition to all that, Milton continued to invest the overn Milton’s actions, the people of Lester Kingdo his praises Marquis Forrest, who they thought was only a genius in ith a legend of invincibility and a hero of the country, was now providing a dependable and reliable source of support for the country’s businessesHow could they not sing his praises?

In all the taverns of Lester Kingdoued about same subject nonstop — as the better hero, Queen Leila or Marquis Forrest? Many of the arguhts, but the final conclusion was always the saet married

In fact, unlike the praises of the people, Milton wasn’t investing his money in the country’s businesses out of the kindness of his heart He knew that if he wanted to make a lot of money, it was useless to just hold onto it

With the territory’s port thriving, Milton was nowabout 80 percent of the co was to widen his invest the country back to nor the people’s wallets would the wallets of the people at the top of the econo for Milton to regret when he could see the port’s commerce rapidly develop as the country’s situation improved But even with all that, for Milton to still be praised as a national treasure and hero, was really quite unfair

“A hureed really is endless”

Milton muttered as he looked down at his territory from the top of his castle

When he had first become the Lord of his territory, it had just been a quiet rural estate In the evenings, far and the s bread would rise froht that was very healing

But now, that sis were built between the ruler-straight roads connecting to each other As that were at least 5 stories high, buildings that were considered tall in this world Additionally, the outer wall surrounding this huge city was so thick and sturdy that it seeiant within the city walls And beyond the city walls was the wide road leading to the distant port that was used by nuh It was h, it was too much This was beyond the silver spoon life that Milton had originally aimed for when he first awakened in this world, this was a self-made diamond spoon

Milton checked his Territory’s statussince it’d been a while
