January 20, 220 in the calendar year of the Principality of Kane.
There is only one day left before the human harvest festival.
Every January 21st in the Scarlet Continent is the Harvest Festival celebrated by the entire human nation. The Harvest Festival represents the expectations of the mainland humans for this year's harvest.
The Harvest Festival is very similar to the Spring Festival in previous lives. Everyone from nobles to common people will celebrate with their families on this day, eat together, and buy some precious food and new clothes.
Allen had returned to Musen City a few days ago. Seeing that the Harvest Festival was coming, he had to go back to Qinghuang Town to celebrate the Harvest Festival with Mrs. Lisa and the others. In addition to some necessary supplies, the soldiers of the Qinghuang Knights
Except for the guards, everyone else, Allen, has taken a day off and will go back to spend the holidays with their families.
As for the large group of warriors stationed on Black Orchid Island, they cannot come back this time. After all, Black Orchid Island is very important, and someone in Rat Killer Village and Wood Spear Village must watch over them. However, Allen also gave each warrior a golden dragon as compensation.
He also specially asked the Finance Department to distribute the golden dragons to their families!
"Sir! This is a letter from Earl Reagan!" Barton came in from outside and handed a letter to Allen.
Allen took it over but did not open it. He knew without guessing that it would definitely not be a good thing if it was sent at this time.
"Barton! You and Bud don't have to accompany me tonight. You can go back to celebrate the Harvest Festival with Antonio and the others! I will return to Qinghuang Territory a little later."
"Yes!" Barton responded, he really wanted to go home.
Ever since Allen moved the entire power core of Qinghuang Territory to Musen City, Antonio's family also moved to Musen City. Tomorrow is the Harvest Festival. Since the two of them followed him, there has been basically no relationship.
After returning home, it happened that this time they could go back and spend some time with Mrs. Antonio.
After Barton left, Allen casually opened the envelope sent by Count Reagan.
A few minutes later, Allen put down the envelope in his hand with a little surprise, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the invasion of jackals seemed to have a big impact on the Earldom of Reagan!
In the envelope, Earl Reagan reminded Allen to go to Twilight City immediately after the Harvest Festival. Of course, Allen is not the only one going to Twilight City. Except for Viscount Bluewater, who is likely to have died in the battle, all the other viscounts will be there.
After the Harvest Festival, head to Twilight City.
As for the reason for going to Twilight City, the letter did not give it, but it is not difficult to guess that it must have something to do with the jackals.
The invasion of Jackals this time was a huge blow to the Earl of Reagan. Except for the Musen Territory, which defeated the incoming Jackals in advance, other viscountries were affected to a certain extent. Among them, the Blue Water Territory was the worst.
The entire territory has been basically destroyed, and the nobles are basically dead. Even if Count Reagan asks Blue Water Collar to start a competition for viscounts, Blue Water Collar may not be able to successfully find a successor. After all, the baron family in Blue Water Collar is basically dead, and there is no baron.
The family can now participate in the battle for viscount.
Next is the Twilight Territory and the Feiyu Territory. Like the Musen Territory, these two territories were invaded by the Jackals immediately. Although their respective Feiyu City and Twilight City did not receive attacks from the Jackals, Twilight City
Basically all the villages and towns under its jurisdiction have been conquered by jackals, and most of the baronies in Feiyu Territory have also been conquered. The two territories are now in ruins and waiting to be revitalized.
Finally, there are several other territories that were less affected. Basically, only a small group of gnolls broke in, and the impact on each territory was relatively small.
But these are all things after the Harvest Festival, so Allen puts them aside first and waits until it is time to return to Qinghuang Town.
Except for housekeeper Kaili, the only people who accompanied Allen back to Qinghuang Town this time were some guards. As for the servants, Allen gave them a holiday.
"Butler Kaili! It's time to go!" Allen said to Butler Kaili, who was sitting on the side of the carriage.
"Master Allen! I wonder if you have prepared any gifts for Mrs. Lisa and the others?" Butler Carey reminded him when he saw that Allen's hands were empty and did not look like he had prepared gifts.
"Don't worry, Butler Kaili!" Allen smiled and patted the big wooden box next to him. Inside was the gift prepared by Allen.
After seeing this, Butler Kaili nodded with relief.
On the day of the Harvest Festival, parents will prepare a gift for their children who have not separated from each other, and give the gift to the child early in the morning when he wakes up. The more surprised the child is, the greater the harvest in the fields will be this year.
However, this is only practiced by common people and some lower-class people. When it comes to nobles and some upper-class families, this custom has changed. Everyone in the family must carefully select gifts for family members, and children must not
Exception, after all, aristocratic children are not like children from civilian families, and money to buy gifts is not a problem at all for them.
In fact, Allen didn't think of it at all at first. He only remembered it after Barton reminded him yesterday. However, Allen has a bit of difficulty in choosing. He was a little worried about what gift to choose. In the end, he racked his brains.
It took a lot of effort to finally select the gifts for each family member.
Since there was enough time, the carriage was not very fast, but it could reach Qinghuang Town before dark.
With nothing to do, Allen began to study the blue gold ore he brought back from Helan Island. It was blue all over, with uneven surfaces, and bursts of cold air came out.
Since Allen came back, he has started asking Shadow to inquire about elemental metals. Not to mention, Shadow actually found out some information.
Elemental metal is a very precious metal that can be used to make elemental weapons. This elemental weapon is for elemental knights. Generally, elemental knights are proud to have an elemental weapon.
Like the entire Principality of Kane, according to Shadow's investigation, there are no elemental metal mines at all. Most of the human principalities also have no elemental metal mines. However, in empires with vast territories like the Charlie Empire and the Luo Empire, they do exist on the surface.
There are elemental metal mines. For example, the Charlie Empire has a well-known red gold vein, which can produce red gold ore and refine red gold, a fire element metal.
The Luo European Empire has a copper ore vein that can produce copper ore containing thunder elements and refine copper.
As for the elemental metal that can be hooked in the Principality of Kane, there is only a scepter held by the master of the Principality of Kane, Archduke Deif. The scepter is said to be made of red gold and is owned by the entire Howard family.
Symbol of rights.
Although I don’t know if there are other countries on the mainland that have elemental metal mines, Allen has already known about the precious elemental metal veins. Now there is very likely an elemental metal vein in Heilan Island. Allen will not let go no matter what.
