What is different from ordinary people is probably Raven's firm will to carry out his actions as soon as he makes up his mind.
After the workers who were repairing the river cleared the channel they were going to dig, Raven got on his horse and ran on the hillside wearing a gray-white robe.
There are a lot of rocks here, but the future territory will be established here.
The wind blew over his face, blew through his hair, and the sunshine was holy. Not only his breath was holy, but his body was free from dirt and dust. He looked like a saint who had fallen into the world.
In the distance, people who are opening up wasteland are working.
But that's not efficient enough and too slow.
Even using a simple plow did not speed them up, and sneaking and sneaking had been integrated into the bones of civilians.
Although they signed the contract, they also thought that if they did less, others would do more. After all, the town after the construction was completed would have its own contribution and its own place.
But then Raven came.
"For the Lord!"
The knight rode his horse and roared down the hillside, shouting for the lord!
"For the future life!"
"For the children of the future!"
"For future glory!"
"For my future self!"
The sound was like a wave blowing by.
The civilians who were cheating without leaving a trace felt their foreheads and bodies hot, and a hot stream of blood spurted out.
"For the Lord!"
The civilian holding the plow shouted, then gritted his teeth and struggled to get up under the pull of the two civilians, plowing open the land closed by weeds.
In front, civilians cutting down trees roared, and then they came and went, struggling endlessly.
At first glance, everything is in full swing.
Raven stopped his horse and let out a long breath. This wave of fighting spirit could last for a whole morning or an afternoon.
But the impact on them goes far beyond that.
He added some things that did not belong to this level. Those who were affected by his fighting spirit would learn his breathing method and practice it unconsciously.
Even if they don't know it themselves, they are performing simple and invisible breathing exercises.
This breathing method will not give them greater strength, but it will give them a healthy body free from all diseases.
And, lively blood.
"Lord, look."
In the distance, the Viscount and his housekeeper watched these working people from a distance, watching them develop future farms and building simple huts.
He sat on the horse for a long time, watching this incredible scene, and he even wondered if these people were playing him.
Is this still the civilian he saw?
Are these still those common people who are lazy and not enterprising?
Are these still those civilians who have no ideas and only know blindly?
The Viscount stared blankly, but what followed was a touch of excitement born from the bottom of his heart.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
This is his future.
On the other side of the mountain, he saw the rushing river, the waterfall flowing down the mountain wall, the lord's mansion built on the hillside, the buildings surrounding the mansion, and the prosperous city below the mountain.
I also saw the fields and farms outside the city, and saw a scene of a bumper harvest.
These, these, these are all his.
On the other side of the mountain, Raven drove away.
The farm in this field won't be able to harvest much in one season, and it's probably going to be choked to death by weeds, so I don't plan to plant much.
Wait until one year has passed before pushing outwards. Push some every year, and then push some again. That's it.
You can't eat a big fat thing after one bite.
Just before the autumn harvest, a granary and some simple accommodation must be built at the foot of the mountain.
These are all plans.
——————
In general, Raven did not spend much of the lord's gold coins, or even use his gold coins, to start the initial project of territory construction.
In the first month, the work of digging the river channel was completed. Under the gaze of the viscount and the knights, the river channel, which was only two meters wide, looked a bit narrow and more like a ditch.
Under their gaze, Sirk Knight charged up a powerful blow, and the light yellow fighting spirit turned into a hammer as big as a fist, which suddenly hit the last incision.
In an instant, the soil and gravel collapsed, and the rushing water surged into the tributary.
The water flowed all the way down, along the dug ditch, and then jumped down from the end, turning into a giant silver dragon and kissing the earth suddenly.
The water carrying turbid mud flowed along the low place, submerging the weeds, and slowly flowed into the low basin at the end.
The construction plan of this territory takes a long time, and it is far from something that can be completed in a year or two.
This man-made river is the initial effect for the Viscount. Once he is moved, he will naturally mobilize more manpower to build a new territory.
When the time comes, he will be more anxious than Raven.
——————
From that day on, the Viscount became more enthusiastic about this place, and Raven gradually entered the role here.
On the surface, Raven is just a taskmaster knight.
Secretly, he would go down to the field to work with the commoners and knights, or he would go into the dense forest and carry out a fat wild boar as today's extra meal.
"Lord Raven, what prey did you catch again?"
As soon as he walked out of the path, a civilian picking up grass roots shouted and greeted Raven enthusiastically.
"A big deer." Raven held up the deer, which weighed at least two hundred pounds on its back.
He was very happy. When he first came to this territory, these civilians hid when they saw him and jumped into the fields, fearing him.
But now, even civilians dare to say hello to him.
"Lord Raven, you are a true knight."
The civilian smiled, maybe thinking about the meat meal later or something else, and said to Raven sincerely, showing a wrinkled face.
"Yes, do you still remember the Eight Virtues of Knights?" Raven smiled and said as if he was joking.
"Of course, mercy, humility, integrity, bravery, justice, sacrifice, glory..." the civilian said boldly, naming seven in one breath.
But on the eighth, he got stuck.
"Soul." Raven added gently, filling in the last patch, Knight's Eight Virtues, complete.
"That's right, soul, soul." The civilian smiled and watched Lei Wen go away, his eyes full of respect.
The last of the eight virtues of knighthood is the soul. In other words, every knight should have his own firm thoughts and will. This is the ultimate core of the eight virtues of knighthood.

"Raven." In the open space, a horse was wandering there, and a middle-aged man full of majesty was also standing there.
He said Raven's name and called to the knight who was carrying the prey.
"Lord." Raven gently put down the prey and placed it on the big rock next to it.
"Tell me, when can construction start here?" The Viscount looked at the mountainous area that had not been started yet, and at the pieces of stone.
Raven pointed to the green wheat fields in the distance and the civilians who were working enthusiastically, and said, "Wait until the wheat is harvested, wait until the civilians feel happy, and wait until winter comes."
He has his own way of opening mountains in winter.
But it looked like the Viscount couldn't wait any longer.
"Lord, this is not something that happens in a day or two. You have to take it step by step." Raven said softly. This does not mean that as long as you bring it here, you will no longer need it in the original town.
Now it's just that they are still lacking in materials, food, and other supplies.
If we don't operate carefully, I'm afraid we won't even be able to build our current foundation.
