Ian thought of Baron Leyan.
This nobleman, who was popular with the domain residents before his exposure, would have enjoyed a high reputation locally if it weren't for his madness in capturing people for experimentation.
Because the Baron would use the money he earned from the sale of Radiance Grass and other Sublimation and Spirit Energy Plants to subsidize the local residents, allowing them to grow normal crops, import food for storage, and ensure stable food prices, so that everyone could settle down with peace of mind within his territory.
Why? Because even if he gave the entire domain a hundred years' worth of subsidies, it wouldn't be as profitable as the sale of a cartload of Radiance Grass from a fire dragon burning a warehouse.
