Chapter 651. A gnome with a future to come
I think it should be the role of both the garrison army and the elven country.
The construction of the wooden house was in its final stages, and Kant was very pleased with the results.
The number of Dehrim who had first migrated to Cumberland was set at about 1,300, and Kant and others sent a form to select candidates suitable for living in Cumberland in various occupations, focusing on experience in agriculture and animal husbandry.
Of course, age is also a very important selection focus, and the age standard for Cumberland residents is set at the juvenile to middle-aged stage. However, for those who apply for the relocation of the whole family, a special level of care will be given, and whether or not to enter will be determined according to the specific situation.
After all, the main purpose of the original request for land acquisition was to cultivate this place as an independent product export area, and the first batch of Dehrim to move in also represented the labor needed by the local area at present.
Kant's goal was for Cumberland to get up to speed and be able to maintain a consistent output.
After the list of occupants was released, all those on the list also received letters from Cumberland, and Kant wrote at the end of the letter that he would give all those who were notified of the invitation a week to prepare. A week later, Dehrim's army would escort them to Cumberland.
During the week, Kant and the craftsmen surveyed the seashore from time to time, hoping to find a suitable place to build a harbor.
According to the map, the journey from Cumberland to Dehrim is a smooth sail. Rather than road traffic that takes three or four days, ships at sea are the perfect channel for transporting goods.
After several days of surveying, Kant finally found a suitable place for a harbor. However, the construction of this harbor still needs to choose a special designer to guide, and it also needs the help of an experienced technical team.
Kant ran to neighboring countries every day for this, but he heard that there was no construction team for seaports in the elven country.
After asking the Foreign Secretary for help, he received a reply from him: the only seaport in the Elven Realm was built by craftsmen from the Gnome Country.
Kant had never dealt with anyone in the dwarf country before, and when he was considering whether to return to China to move the soldiers.
I went to the port of Coria in the elven country, and after this visit, I made up my mind to invite the craftsmen of the dwarf country.
The craftsmanship of the craftsmen of the dwarf country is natural, and every inch of the port of Coria is as beautiful as a whole.
The Foreign Secretary gave Kant the means of contact with the Gnome Nation, and said to him: "The craftsmen of the Gnome Nation have some stubborn and strange tempers. After all, if you really want to invite them, you must cooperate with their ideas. ”
Kant didn't care about that, he had seen quite a few people with this temper, and they just needed you to communicate carefully. Of course, there is very little room for negotiation in specialized areas.
A week had passed, and Kant had sent an invitation to the land of gnomes. But there has been no response so far.
The migrants from Dehrim were about to arrive, and Kant had the staff in charge of the rear office move all the basic supplies into the cabins. And pick a medicine called Cinnamomum on the mountain and make it into incense. Put a few sticks in each wooden house to repel insects and keep out moisture.
Once the staff is ready, the cabin will be ready to move in.
When more than 100 families came to Cumberland by horse-drawn carriage, Kant did not go out to greet him. Because he doesn't get used to being noticed by too many people. After explaining all the hospitality processes to his subordinates. Kant went to the main city of Elven City alone. The Foreign Secretary asked Kant for a drink today.
Kant also took the opportunity to break away from the complicated affairs for a while.
When he arrived at the restaurant in the bustling area of the city, the foreign secretary had been sitting there waiting for him for a long time.
Kant could still sense that the Foreign Secretary admired him, but he did not know where that admiration came from.
Asked casually during the banquet, the Foreign Minister said with a melancholy expression: "Actually, I envy you, you are talented, and you are valued by your commanders. ”
"The Foreign Secretary must also be very valued by His Excellency the Elven King. At the beginning, we negotiated the project of the market. His Excellency the Elf King also said that he wanted to give full support behind his back. Didn't you make that suggestion in the first place?" Kant replied.
"No, our Elven King has never let the people see his strength. Always hiding behind the curtain and not being able to make any decisions. He was just happy that someone had taken the initiative to help him solve some of his troubles. The Foreign Secretary was already drunk, and replied vaguely.
The voice fell, and he fell to the side.
Kant walked out of the restaurant and was escorted home by the Foreign Secretary's attendants.
Then they took the carriage back to their lodgings in Cumberland, where the once dull and silent cabin was lit up tonight.
Kant could still hear the conversation of the people in the house as he passed by.
I don't know why my heart is also warmer.
Some people say that there are two kinds of people in the world who are the loneliest, one is the person who feels depressed when he sees others happy, and the other is the person who will warm up even if he is outside, but as long as he sees the shadow of happiness in others.
Kant felt that his self at the moment should belong to the latter category.
Drag your tired body to bed and sleep with your eyes closed. Tomorrow is another day.
By the end of the week, the newcomers had become familiar with their work, although nothing was really productive. But if this momentum continues, Cumberland should soon become a well-developed agricultural production area.
The people of the dwarf country sent a letter in reply, in which they promised to take over the project, but the treatment demanded was also very appalling.
Kant gave an affirmative reply to the dwarf kingdom after questioning Bandak.
On the fourth day of the reply, the craftsmen of the dwarf kingdom arrived at the port of Koryas on a ship of their own construction.
Kant went to receive him personally, as stated in the contract.
For the first time, I got to know the craftsmen from the dwarf country.
There were about 20 people who came, and the height was really not high, about 1.3 meters.
All of them had fiery red hair on top of their heads, and they looked a little frizzy.
They muttered to each other from the moment they stepped off the boat, and they spoke so fast that it sounded like the common language of their own race.
"Do you speak the language of the Terrans?" Kant asked.
Communication is a big problem.
"Yes," replied the girl at the front of the line.
Kant's eyes lit up, and he noticed this quiet little girl from the beginning. She seemed to be the leader of their group of gnomes.
