the first thing you have to do is go to the town and then take a quest with easy difficulty only then you collect money to buy food and medicine for the past to pay your companion salary.

avoid fighting against bandits at the level above you avoid. but to fight animals it's ok just try. if you lose then load your save. oh yes, this game is required to save load if something happens that you don't want.

if you have reached the mid game then you are required to look for more crowns. to search for more crowns. then you can do as follows:
-Selling the loot
- complete quests
- sell bandits to prison (must have chain/rope)
-Sell trade good to other towns or to nearby merchants.

oh yes, to sell out of town, you must have 200 krown to pay for the border pass / you already have a border pass (complete the story quest)

Profits from selling trade good are based on class.
normal color borders. (Normal)
purple color border. (Epic)
Gold color border. (Legend)

each has a price based on color. if sold to the nearest merchant then the price is only a slight difference. but if sold to another town market then the profit is in accordance with the distance traveled. the further away, the better.

to add troops you have to choose the type of companion warrior (axe) and archers or spearman avoid the brute .. I think it's okay but not required.

then catch wild animals like wolves with the same level and make them your companion. animals don't affect / reduce your happiness take it easy.

fine that's it because it's still at work.

oh yeah don't forget don't let your happiness be a minus. if it becomes the equal as it's okay but if you lose the war it will be a minus. it will affect the daily lack of influence. Influence is also important enough to run side quests or story quests
