Here, let's talk about Snakes territory.
Former Rigsby territory is inherently a rich territory and, normally, not a debt territory.
This is due, for one thing, to the excessive use of pigs.
Counting from Patrick. Three generations ago, Principal Rigsby began lending at high interest.
The funds were used to make ale and wine, which began two more generations ago.
Yet another generation ago, our Lord noticed a decline in harvest due to a succession of wheat crops, creating a way of pinching bean cultivation along the way.
The beans
It was a bean similar to what we call soybeans on Earth.
Originally, the Rigsby family seemed competent.
The territory is blessed with water, with vast fields of wheat and vineyards.
Wheat paid as a tax shall be paid to the king as a tax, while wheat remains unchanged for gold.
The rest of the wheat is an ale that turns into booze. Grapes of course become wine.
Wheat, ale and wine as food are the main industries in former Rigsby territory.
Alcohol makes money anyway.
If you make it, you can sell it for sure.
That's why the old Rigsby family, who even had gold, was so called the high-interest loan of the kingdom.
But with the pig's scatter, the accumulation had almost disappeared.
But because the Westin family disappeared, so did their debts.
Moreover, the jewels collected by the pigs had been given to the Snakes as they were, so the funds were adequate.
Patrick doesn't drink too much, but he does.
I also had memories of my previous life, and I was quite dissatisfied with Yale.
Patrick was a whiskeyman in his last life.
So, I called the artisans and made them make distillers.
I distilled the ale to make something like whiskey.
This hit me!
I made three times as much money as a cheap ale.
I also made brandy from wine in good shape.
This is the time magic (which is rare magic) used by alcoholics and elves to age for three years at a time.
The high demand for wine prevented me from making a number, but if I sold it to the nobles, it was know-how.
Of course I sent it to the royal family as a tribute.
Well, old Viscount Harter territory, but this is land not suitable for farmland.
The cause is the vast lake and the wetlands that spread around it.
The main industry in the former Viscount of Harter was fisheries.
But what happens when you eat too much fish in a world without the skill of farming is more obvious than seeing fire.
Catches have declined year after year, resulting in the loss of gold and debt.
Patrick found some grass in the wetlands when he went on an inspection.
It is also a considerable amount.
To the villagers,
"You're not gonna eat this?
And then,
"It looks like wheat, but it doesn't make bread. So I'm eating chickens and pigs."
And I was answered.
Yes, it is love!
Patrick immediately recommends rice cultivation and declares that all rice made will be bought at the Count's house.
Of course, it's for sake.
Since there is no precision rice technology, there is no transparency like Earth's sake, and a slightly brown sake was made.
And Mirin, and soy sauce with soy beans.
The new seasoning and the new liquor were uked in the king's capital.
Snake territory will then be a flourishing territory after the King's capital.
but that's a story in a few years.
