The Beautiful Lady Is Lonely (MTL) ✓

CHAPTER 120

  Petroleum is one of the main energy sources of industrial society and the bloodline of industry. If you master energy, you will also master the lifeline of industry.

    The world's industry has not yet begun to develop, and oil has not yet played a major role, but Lu Xi judged that it will soon have it.

    Lu Xi took Gracie and Charlie in a carriage, patrolled her territory a little, recognized the way, and determined the general situation of the fief in his heart.

    The fief that belonged to her looked very dilapidated and barren. In addition to this large oil field, there were other barren land and hills. There were very few cultivated land and few people. It is not an exaggeration to say that there is no grass.

    The advantage of this territory, visible to the naked eye, is that it is large enough to be seen at a glance and endless.

    Limited by the terrain and transportation, Lu Xi couldn't finish it in one day. When she estimated that it was getting dark, she asked Charlie to drive back to the city.

    Gracie still looked angry. After the day, she was very tired, but seeing a slender girl in Lu Xi did not complain at all, she did not complain, followed Lu Xi, and muttered something towards Lu Xi. She knew "I heard that Jim’s father is a nouveau riche squire, and his family has a little money but still not decent enough. It was not until later that Jim’s uncle passed on the earl’s title to him because he did not leave an heir. Status. Alas, after Jim became an earl, he couldn’t wait to show off his family’s money, proud as a cock, walking sideways on the road. Later in the royal city duel with other gentlemen, he was squeezed out so he could go west. Make a living and become the city lord of this shabby place. I think he has a good memory. If he treats His Highness better, maybe His Highness can pull him out and take him back to the city! Now, there are no doors!"

    Gray Xi has blind trust in Lu Xi. Lu Xi said that she would take them back, and she firmly believed that Lu Xi could do it.

    The Jim she was talking about was the lord of this western town, the one who had allocated a barren land to Lu Xi.

    It can be seen that Gracie is still extremely dissatisfied with this piece of land-she didn't even listen to what Lu Xi said just now. In Gracie's heart, this is a ghost place where rats disdain to settle. She would rather Lu Xi go back to the palace. Even though she was squeezed out, at least the palace can't bear the cold or the cold.

    Lu Xi knew what Gracie was thinking. She could hear her disgust for the land in her words, but she couldn't explain it for a while, so Lu Xi let her go.

    Lu Xi was thinking about other things in his heart.

    Although her territory is "rich", it is a ghost town with no people.

    Someone has everything. Wealth and resources flow with the flow of people. If there are no people, then the value of oil will not be reflected in the ground, and it is no different from not having a drop of oil here.

    Resources that cannot be effectively explored and utilized are of no value.

    So the top priority is how to attract more people to her.

    Lu Xi quickly recalled the code of this country in her mind, and soon she filtered out effective information.

    In this country, the lord has absolute rights to his own territory. He only needs to be responsible to his superiors and to the king. The king is not responsible for the management of the territory, only the lord who manages the territory, standing high on the top of the biological chain and waiting to receive the offerings of the subjects is enough.
