The new farm was located outside the city, near the military stables. According to Suhlen's plan, the farm was to raise more than 3,000 pigs to provide enough meat for the army. Furthermore, he even named the breeding factory Spring Light Brilliant Breeding Factory.
[Splendid Spring Light Breeding Factory: A spacious and comfortable environment can make the livestock happy. Sufficient feed can allow the livestock to grow meat without any worries. Rapid Growth + 15, Disease Reduction + 10, Taste of Meat + 8, Prosperity + 3, Carefree]
[Carefree: Livestock raised here will grow without worries.]
Although the farm was built, it would take at least half a year for the livestock to be ready for slaughter. So, before that, Northguard City could only purchase livestock from the Northern provinces on a large scale, apart from hunting. Transporting a large number of livestock from Calt would cost more than half of the livestock's price. The distance was at least 300 miles, so it was very difficult to transport livestock.
In the past, Suhlen didn't think it was difficult to raise an army when there were only Barbarian soldiers. After all, Barbarians only needed to eat their fill. But now, Northguard City's army had more than 1,500 people, so it couldn't be the same as before.
Ordinary soldiers were given 10 Kinnar every month, while the stronger ones were given 3 to 10 Kinnar. According to the standard set by him, the Barbarian soldiers were basically given 10 Kinnar each month. After all, they were already grade 3 extraordinary class holders.
Their leaders, Boulder and Johnson, were already grade 4 class holders. Now, Suhlen's territory had quite a number of grade 4 class holders, including two Barbarians, a drow, a half-elf, a succubus, and the legendary Suhlen. There were more than 300 grade 3 class holders, and even more grade 2 class holders. In the Northern provinces, aside from Calt City, no other city could compare to Northguard City.
Suhlen was very excited about the territory's strength, but the monthly expenses also made Suhlen's heart ache. The Kinnar Suhlen earned every month was used to pay the soldiers and immigrants. There wasn't much left. Even Hathaway's laboratory didn't have enough money to buy all kinds of alchemical materials.
Fortunately, there was an income of gold every month in the underground world. After getting the Mint to forge Kinnar, they could barely break even.
However, in order to earn some money, Suhlen still took out his old collection and prepared to sell it. Although many things had been given to Hathaway as alchemy materials in the Overlord's castle, there were still many good things left. For example, after killing the Stormwind Tiger, he could use its meat to make jerky, the heart of the Stormwind Tiger, and the heart of the Cryopterus, as well as the most valuable Stormwind Tiger's penis and Cryopterus's penis.
The Magic Tiger's Whip and the Cryopterus's Whip would be crazily sought after by the nobles. The effects of these high-level magic beasts were too strong for the average person to bear. The best way to use them was to brew wine.
Suhlen specially asked the distillery to prepare a few large barrels of high-quality rum. He then processed the Magic Tiger's Whip and the Cryopterus's Whip before soaking them. In order to achieve the best effect of the Stormwind Tiger's Whip and the Dragon's Whip, Suhlen specially bought a recipe from the system store. Then, he asked Hathaway to help him make it.
"Weren't you pretty good last night? Why do you need this kind of thing?" Hathaway looked at Suhlen with a strange expression.
"What are you thinking? Why would I use this kind of thing? Who was the one who begged me not to last night? The territory has no money, so this is for sale. "Suhlen reached out and rubbed Hathaway's hair into a chicken coop.
"The territory has no money?" Hathaway said in surprise. "Isn't the sugar and alcohol trade very profitable?"
Suhlen glanced at her and said, "Even if it's profitable, it can't compete with the army, the immigrants, and your alchemy lab."
"Uhh …" Hathaway shrunk her neck, feeling a little guilty. Ever since she came to Northern Town, she had never had to worry about the various materials in her laboratory. She only needed to list out all the materials, and someone would buy them for her. She had almost forgotten that these things were expensive.
"Then I'll be more frugal in the future. I won't buy anything for the lab this month, "Hathaway said weakly.
"No need. Just do what you need." Suhlen waved his hand and said. What a joke. Hathaway's lab would produce a large amount of magic equipment every once in a while. This was not something that could be bought with money.
"Help me make this Dragon Tiger Wine first. The money from selling this wine is enough for your lab to use for a few months." Suhlen waved at Hathaway and said.
He took out several large barrels of rum from the distillery from the storage space. These barrels were all made of fine Nanmu wood. The barrels were 1.2 meters tall and 60 centimeters in diameter. They were tightly bound by iron hoops. Such a large barrel would weigh more than 300 pounds after being filled to the brim.
Hathaway processed all the tiger and dragon penises and soaked them in the barrels. After about a week, the Dragon Tiger Wine was ready. However, this Dragon Tiger Wine was still not something that ordinary people could enjoy.
The nobles' bodies were all hollowed out by wine and women. This kind of Dragon Tiger Wine was too strong for their bodies to bear. It also needed to be diluted according to the ratio of 1: 5. This kind of Dragon Tiger Wine was the best for them.
Moreover, after soaking the tiger and dragon penises, the effects were still very strong. They could be used to soak in the wine. After soaking them five more times, the medicinal effects were finally exhausted.
After putting in all the ingredients, Suhlen sealed the barrels and stored them in the wine cellar in the lord's castle. After a week, Suhlen opened one of the barrels. For a moment, the fragrance of the wine was rich. The wine showed a kind of amber color and looked crystal clear. The wine in the entire wine cellar was several times richer.
Suhlen poured a cup of wine with a grape and drank it. The wine was sweet and had a lingering aftertaste. After entering the stomach, a warm current quickly rose. Then this warm current continuously spread throughout the body. Soon, Suhlen's entire body became warm. His originally loose pants became a little tight.
After sealing the barrels again, Suhlen left the wine cellar and found Kris, who was still dealing with the affairs. He then directly pulled the little succubus to the room upstairs. He stepped to the stomach and tried the Ancient Way of Passion, lashing into the stomach.
Among Suhlen's maids, only the little succubus could go in and out with him. However, she was still no match for him. Moreover, Suhlen had the ultimate skill, Plasma Cannon, Soul Shot. Therefore, even the succubus who was proficient in all kinds of skills and had unique skills was no match for him.
Two hours later, Suhlen left the room feeling refreshed. The air was still filled with the smell of heather. The little succubus had already exhausted her strength and fell asleep. It seemed that today's affairs could not be dealt with.
After trying the Dragon Tiger Wine, Suhlen began to mix the wine according to the ratio. A barrel of 150 catties of Dragon Tiger Wine would be 1,500 catties after mixing. Then, he asked the craftsmen to bottle half a catty of wine. The bottles used to hold the wine were also specially made according to Suhlen's requirements. They must be exquisitely made.
After half a day, the three thousand bottles of wine were finally filled. Suhlen casually picked up a bottle of Dragon Tiger Wine and looked at its attributes.
[Dragon Tiger Wine: A special wine brewed by using the high-grade magic beast Storm Tiger Whip and Yaron Cryopterus Whip, with more than a dozen kinds of precious magic plants and high-grade rum. After drinking it, it can restore the masculinity of a man. Aphrodisiac + 25, Body Strengthening + 10, Energy Recovery + 15, Dragon Vigor + 15]
After mixing and dividing the four barrels of Dragon Tiger Wine, Suhlen had 12,000 bottles of Dragon Tiger Wine. Of course, the price of this wine could not be sold cheaply. The best Sacred Blood Wine in the Kingdom of Florence was 50 Kinnar per bottle. Suhlen was going to double the price of the Dragon Tiger Wine. 100 Kinnar to test the waters. If the response was strong, he planned to raise the price.
Suhlen was very professional when it came to making money from the nobles. But now, he needed to let the nobles know the effects of this wine first. The best way was to let them experience it for themselves. After all, no matter how good the wine was, it would be useless if they didn't experience it for themselves.
Suhlen couldn't leave the Northern Battlefront City and go to the northern provinces to sell medicinal wine. It would be too degrading. So, he directly held a wine tasting party in the Northern Battlefront City and invited all the managers of the caravans to attend.
To be honest, being a merchant at the level of a chamber of commerce in this country basically meant that they had the support of the nobles. Merchants without support couldn't do well at all. They would soon be eaten by other caravans. So, as long as the merchants knew, the nobles would know too.
All the merchants were very willing to attend the wine tasting party held by Suhlen. Many of them coveted the sugar and rum in Suhlen's hands. However, Suhlen was very strict. They paid a lot of money and still couldn't get the secrets of the sugar and rum. As for robbing, if they dared to do so, their corpses would have been exposed in the wilderness. This was not Florence where the nobles were powerful. In the northern wilderness, they had the final say.
Since they couldn't get the recipe, they tried to get the right to buy it. Unfortunately, the two goods were monopolized by a few caravans. The other merchants naturally wanted a share of the profits. It was just that they didn't have the chance. Now that Suhlen was holding a wine tasting party, these merchants were naturally tempted.
After the wine tasting party was announced, all the merchants were guessing whether a new product would appear in the Northern Battlefront City. They were all eager to fight for it.
Soon, it was the night of Suhlen's wine tasting party. The banquet was held in the lord's castle. The food was also prepared by the halfling Frodo and the chefs. The banquet was held in the style of a buffet banquet in his previous life. In comparison, there were no well-dressed maids or well-dressed bands. Although the dishes at the banquet were delicious, the merchants were not in the mood to taste them. They were all waiting anxiously.
