We exchanged grain for a batch of fine salt!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gleam involuntarily flashed in Aiden’s eyes, \"Fine salt!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed, it’s fine salt!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides the fine salt, what else did you discover?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ackman continued, \"We saw fully armed soldiers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The joy in Aiden’s eyes instantly dissipated, and he squinted his eyes, nearly questioning, \"How many did you see?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ackman hesitated for a few seconds and explained, \"Master, just the soldiers wearing plate armor, helmets, holding long spears, there were at least two to three hundred.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even at dusk, they were still engaged in weight-bearing fitness training.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As for what couldn’t be seen, I don’t know...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden did not speak, his eyes shifting, seemingly in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden continued to ask, \"Anything else, besides these?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ackman didn’t hesitate at all and replied, \"In addition, there are large tracts of cultivated farmland, numerous houses built with red brick, waterwheels, ships, mine carts... even a castle over ten meters high!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The key is, the ships were transporting iron ore, and the track mine carts were carrying coal!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ackman’s voice grew somewhat excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, on that territory, not only are there salt mines, but also coal mines and iron mines, as well as a large population!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as we can occupy that territory, relying on the city walls, it could even be developed into a small nation!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Ackman’s excited expression, Aiden seemed to be influenced by it as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are also coal mines and iron mines?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having salt mines alone was already a surprise to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the investigation revealed coal mines and iron mines as well?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Salt mines implied endless gold pounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coal mines meant rapidly developing fuel sources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iron mines meant capital to compete with countless powers!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And there’s also a large population?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It means that wild land possesses all the necessary conditions for ascendancy!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A strong sense of ownership arose within Aiden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I must seize that territory!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That land is mine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one else is worthy of owning it besides me!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden didn’t realize that, perhaps due to his excitement, his whole body was trembling involuntarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the twins gently patting his back, Aiden’s breathing gradually became calmer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Ackman again and continued to ask, \"Is there more?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ackman thought for a moment and then replied, \"Master, due to limited time, we could only find out this much for now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If there’s another chance to go beyond the city walls, certainly we can discover more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for his conversation with Lynn, he instinctively concealed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he were to inform Aiden of that part.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter if he agreed or not with Lynn, in Aiden’s eyes, it would be seen as betrayal!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden looked at Ackman with satisfaction, a hint of color returned to his previously pale face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well done, Ackman, I didn’t expect you to have such ability!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ackman smiled slightly, without answering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He naturally knew that the reason for entering the city walls was due to Gasper’s articulate efforts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden continued, \"Go find Justin...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, Justin’s body is still exposed, unable to prepare food and wine for you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Ackman’s eyes widened instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He repeated Aiden’s words, \"Exposed?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden said calmly, \"Yes, that slut Justin dared to have an affair with another man in the mansion behind my back!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That alone is bad enough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That shameless woman even got pregnant with someone else’s child!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I hadn’t seen her morning sickness during dinner, I wouldn’t have known about this situation...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ackman kept his head lowered, not daring to utter a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden continued, \"Although I couldn’t find out who really put a green hat on me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",854,"2026-05-29T04:50:48.605Z","2026-06-01T04:29:11.989Z",1,"novelbin.me","d9fd4b4988ee8f10db5cf6b727a5462c968f0082c3f10ef984d5d8d6b4accffe","system-build-my-own-territory-chapter-251","system-build-my-own-territory-chapter-449",979,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsystem-build-my-own-territory-cover.jpg"]
