THE WORLD DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM
chapter 19's



After returning to the city they first reported the matter regarding the number of ferocious beasts and the Baron's plan to Chief and Grandma Melanie. But there is good news that John's fertilizer theory has been working this time on plants and showing results that made the villagers quite relieved this time. Even Melanie's grandmother was quite surprised by the changing harvest so quickly, she thought that it might have a small change and it would take at least a month. This gave him a new idea of how he could also influence the growth of herbs and valuable ingredients through studying the soil and nutrients in those herbs.


The first thing John did after reporting to Melanie was to go and inspect her factory and her work operation. After arriving at the factory, Gordon first reports to her about how Joseph and Jack arrived and ordered a number of new items after she left for an entire week. It is also known that they paid a total of 30,000 gold coins. Gordon also reports that Jack will be waiting for him in a few more days in the Northern border town.


During his time away, he had obtained a total of 30,000 gold coins and 40,000 WDS points from his trades in various places. This time he also got 50,000 Exp points.


So in total he had almost 35,000 gold coins, 60,000 exp points and 42,000 WDS points.


After taking the rest of the money and giving Gordon the money needed for the operating functions, he first decided to visit both the Blacksmiths and take all the parts to be reassembled in the factory. The machines will run on coal but their production capacity is also increasing.


This time though the blacksmith George was quite curious about John because he had heard that John had made a large amount of soap making in his factories, but he still did not reveal it publicly.


After telling Arnold and his men to bring back the machines to the Factory, the, he first decides to meet Jack first when he wonders what kept him waiting and for what reason.


“By the way, I will find out after meeting him,” thought John and headed for the market.


After some time he meets Jack at the market, Jack is quite happy to see John again and the two go straight into business.


“I heard you waited for me for a few days. What happened so you left your business and waited for me?” John asked Jack after the two of them settled in an inn.


“Well the problem is, your soap is more popular than I expected among various nobles, especially the bath soap, soaps, which is more popular among noble ladies and it seems that many royals are looking to stop business but you will not have to worry about them taking your business legally but the problem is that they can try to bribe your factory workers and they will try to spy on your factory from other ways. “


“You should also worry if they try to hurt you and intimidate you for giving up on soap making methods,” Jack told John very seriously.


Jack then repeated the same thing as Joseph about how he had to leave this city and how dangerous it was here after 6 months, where John told him that he would buy this city and defend it. Jack disagrees with John because he understands how people always feel about the land and the people who help them. John thinks that Jack is not worried about anything unless he still appreciates Jack for his consideration and makes time for him.


Jack asked John, “If you want to stay in the city, why don't you buy poison I will be very helpful in resisting the waves of beasts and this time my family has given me an additional quota as well, so what do you think?” ? ”


This time Jack is ready if John decides to stay in town. There is an assumption that John will most likely live in the city.


“OK, those poisons will be very helpful.”


From this John also learns of Jack's family's attitude towards him and seems to be positive from the way they provide an additional quota for their venom.


Hence John bought all 5000 bottles of poison with 500 gold. He never thought that this poison would be so expensive if it would be given only by the villagers. No wonder it was difficult for the village to buy poison.


Then he decided to go to the Village Chief's house,


“John, I'm always waiting for your arrival so I can give you good news about the situation on the farm after we try your method. Plants and plants have a lot of effect from your method and the situation has been stable in the village for now. “Sam said to John enthusiastically when he found out that John and Eva's team had arrived.


“Yes, I actually want your help this time in recruiting people for the new factory. As you have heard from Eva and the others, this winter will be very harsh so I want to prepare as much as possible for the upcoming disaster and implement my plans beforehand. ”


” This time I am also ready to buy the Northern Border city from the baron so that I can support as many cities as possible, “ John told Sam after hearing the Village situation.


After thinking for a while, Sam answered John very seriously, “Well, I can still help you get 20 more people, please, but you can't expect me to get more people in the future or else the agricultural labor will decline. You see we have a very limited population so if you want more people then you have to recruit people from other cities. But I think it would be very difficult to recruit people from other cities because you know our geographical problems. Your best bet is to buy slaves and have them work for you. ”


John had long accepted that he needed to buy slaves if he wanted to continue improving his operations. He was actually very happy now that he could still get another 20 people.


They then have lunch together with Same and they discuss solving the farm problems and how to combat the problems they will face in the winter. John also convinces Sam that he bought 5,000 bottles of Jack's poison so they can withstand the beast invasion this time.


Hearing this Sam was very surprised because at other times the village could only buy 50 bottles of poison from Jack plus usually cost more. Plus 50 bottles is always a quota for the village.


And most rich people like George usually already go to the main town of the baron.


It will usually cost you 20 gold coins for 50 bottles.


From this John understands that the Jack family is ready to support Jack and John in every possible way for their business relationship.


The poison was mostly sold at high prices because it was always in demand and the raw materials were rare and hard to come by and hence the price gap.


After Goodbye’s John they go to meet Jay and rest at home.


“So, how was your trip in the forest this time?” Jay asked John after meeting him at home.


“Well this time I'm hunting enough and I don't have much of a problem because I'm traveling with Eva and her team. But there were some problems with Baron Putra when I was in the eastern sea city.”


“Either how it relates to Eva and then she challenged me to a duel because of that,” John said to Jay with a sigh.


Hearing this, Jay was quite surprised when he understood how people from noble families usually behaved. But the most surprising thing to him was John's combat prowess. But he was happy that John was safe and there was no problem.


John then made dinner for the two of them because he didn't like the bland food here. Since he had a lot of money, he bought a lot of spices from the Eastern sea city for his cooking needs.


The next day he visits Paul to see how the work at his house takes place. And it seems that paying extra for labor is worth it as they are close to completion for building a big house.


John then gave him another order to make 2 Guns and Paper factories at the Rose soap factory site. It was made in accordance with modern architecture. Paul is quite happy lately because he got a lot of orders from the rich man.


Three days passed normally, today her normal routine was to visit Melanie's grandmother and then she would train by herself.


But lately Josephine stopped by so she could learn swordsmanship from John.


He has also improved his own swordsmanship techniques with the help of Sarah.


After three days, his house was complete and he decided to visit her today. Today Josephine accompanied him because he had decided to visit her home after they had finished training.


During these days Josephine was quite active when it came to John, it seemed like she was quite moved after watching Eva and John during their trip.


After visiting the mansion, he first paid a visit to Sam so that he could ask the people to take care of his mansion.


Paul and his men have already started building 2 factories. Since it was not a big job like a big house, it was expected that it would be completed quite early.


After arranging all the things about the maid and the maid, she decided to hold a banquet to build her new home.


Josephine was quite surprised after watching the Mansion for the first time. Although he had seen many large houses, he had never seen such a house in his entire life with such furniture and architecture.


He decided to ask John, “John, who made your big house this time?” He was convinced that John hired some architect from an imperial city or someone from a foreign country.


“Well, Paul from our city made it. I designed the house and furniture, he made sure to make it according to my adjustment,” John replied to him in a haughty tone teasing.


At first Josephine was surprised, but it seemed she was used to it,


She then told him skeptically with serious eyes, “Tell honestly, do you know any profession you don't know? You even improved my sword technique.”


This time John did not look him in the eye and said to him with a poker face.While changing the subject at the same time, “Yeah, I've got things learned faster so that doesn't mean I know everything and I'm just lucky when I improve your technique. Why don't we go inside the house and look around and greet the servants. ”


Josephine still looked at him skeptically, but when mentioning the mansion, she decided to search now.


The next day the servants at the Mansion prepared for the banquet later. John had decided to go to his factory because Joseph was coming to bring his things today.


After arriving at the factory, Joseph was already waiting there for him at the factory, soon they were busy with important talks.


“Well, the raw materials you requested were transported by the carriage. But I got a message from my father that the family has contacted the baron about the acquisition of a northern border town and it seems the baron is not happy with you, but Dad said that most likely he acted to get more money out of you so you should be ready for quite a cough if you want to acquire the city, “ Joseph told John.


“Well, I was expecting something after I confronted Antonio. Maybe the baron was quite happy with his son getting hit so he extorted more money and terms from me.”


“Yeah, it will take a long time, so are you going to come with me this time in the south because you want the labor for your factory?” Joseph said to John.


“I think I will join you this time because somehow I will need urgent people,” John agreed to his proposal.


“BTW I will need a continuous supply of metal, can you provide it in the long term?” John then asked him.


“Well, that won't be a problem. We handle a lot of things, so don't worry.”


Joseph then prepared to load the soap and prepared to send it to the Eastern sea city through his army. Joseph had decided to attend the banquet 2 days later and went to the South with him later.


John was busy making preparations for the Gun and Paper manufacturing plant. This time he also decided to take the help of Ron and George from the city so that it would save time.


And so the rest of the day goes by. This time he was packing his things from Jay's house and saying goodbye to her as he was about to move into his own mansion.


“I will definitely miss your cooking when you're not here,” Jay said to her with a sigh.


“Yeah, you can always come to the Mansion if you miss my food so much,” John said with a laugh.


After moving into the House, she first went to Grandma Melanie's Pharmacy like she had promised before. Currently John has studied pharmacy at the middle level of all the books he has read.


Lately Eva and her team have not gone into the forest after hearing the news and are busy preparing for the winter so there are at least some casualties.


Today John met Eva while reading a book. It seemed like he already knew about John training Josephine when he was training as well which made him a bit annoyed. So today he decided to ask for his help in battle as well as magic.


“Luckily he knows magic too, maybe he can help me improve my fighting style,” Eva thought as she approached John.
