Chapter 86: Ranster's Emissary
The Fish-Man's labor force is indeed considerable. Although Sun Lin can use the help of the system to instantly build a small village or small wooden fort on the island, but the construction of similar wooden fences, yellow mud roads, ports, etc., requires time and manpower to build, except for the 4 small principality island territories and Sardinia territories, 2000 civilians are evenly distributed to the Herakon territory, Rhodes territory and the newly opened Ajaccio, Riga, and Leding 3 territories, even if the number of construction teams that will disappear after construction is added, each of the 5 archipelago territories can be integrated into about 4 or 5 hundred labor, And that includes young women and children. If it weren't for Sun Lin's allocation of 10,000 fishman laborers for each of these island territories, it is estimated that even if there is systematic help, a large amount of financial investment, and the system reward - 1,000 civilians obtained after killing a certain amount of orcs - are allocated to these archipelago territories, it is estimated that it will take more than 1 year to build them into large towns that meet the requirements of becoming a transit station, and this also considers whether it is worth it to put all the population rewards given by the system on these island territories in order to build these island territories.
But with these fish-man laborers, it is different, because these cities are all digitalized by the system, so unlike the aborigines of the world, if there are civilians living in the city, then with the increase of food products around them, the population growth rate of these cities will also be secretly increased by the system.
Although in one respect, the civilians created by these systems have the same independent thoughts and sentimental moods as ordinary humans............... Even when it comes to giving birth to children, it is basically the same as ordinary people, and they have to be pregnant for ten months before they can give birth to a baby. And the babies created by all systems are the same as ordinary people, it takes 18 years to grow into adulthood, and the same people in other systems will fall in love, pretend to be coercive, and play tricks, as if these system civilians can actually be completely out ...............of the control of the system. But in fact, it is not, because secretly, the system can indirectly control the thoughts, moods and ............. of the civilians of these systems with the changes in the city and the surrounding cities, fertility, that is, to control the success rate of sperm and egg combination, of course, the premise of improving this success rate, and the only way is to increase the grain production of the cities recognized by the system, including its nearby territories, as for the mood and thoughts, most of the laws promulgated by Sun Lin are very satisfying, So the system has not changed except that the people's will has always been displayed as "loyalty", and the thought? Although Sun Lin paid attention to some of the curiosities brought about by his faith, including speeding up the process of making the inhabitants of the occupied territories a member of the empire, Sun Lin paid more attention to technological innovation and the theocratic authority it expressed than to theocracy. At least it can be seen from the fact that he directly repealed the original Pope of the Divine Realm in his capacity as the Pope of the New Realm, and did not allow people to use crossbows in battle, and priests were allowed to join the army but could not be called high-ranking officers.
Due to Sun Lin's covert bribery, although the fish-men only came to work as laborers in the name of building various facilities for the five emerging towns, secretly, the number of fish-men labor input in each city per day had changed from 10,000 to 5,000, and the 5,000 fish-men who did not join in the construction had already built permanent submarine reef dwellings in the sea area where they worked, and even seaweed fields and marine fish farms had been built.
"Your Majesty, the five new towns have begun to operate in full swing, and the riots within the island territory of the four minor principalities have basically subsided, and the merchants who originally stayed in the island territory of the four minor principalities have also been dealt with according to the handling method of the York territory at that time. Generally speaking, the sea occupation policy that we have drawn up has changed from an unpredictable occupation phase to a stable development stage by this time, and with the fact that York Territory's newly established naval base is now fully producing the Garry warship, it seems that we no longer need to worry about possible threats in the ocean, and I think we should be able to push the battle line to the coastline of the King Continent. ”
"Indeed, from any point of view, the battle line in the strategic plan of the Empire on which the sun never sets can be pushed to the coastline of the northwest continent............. right, Blackbeard, does it have any reaction to the kingdoms that the four minor principalities submitted, or the empire behind their kingdoms? For example, cutting off trade and preparing to send a navy to block the official rivers and roads in its territory. ”
"No, at least they reacted the same as the Lancester Empire, although I heard that these empires, including the Lancester Empire, are ready to jointly declare a statement to criticize our Empire, and the merchants and chambers of commerce controlled by the royal family in the country are also secretly lowering the prices of porcelain, pearls, and white paper, but due to the vast market of ours, and even in the cities where the West Continent and the North Continent and the Northwest Continent are connected, it is estimated that the efforts made by these merchants can be said to be minimal, and there are rumors, Since the practices of these merchants have cut off the financial resources of hundreds of neutral merchants and several neutral chambers of commerce, and even involved the use of dozens of dukes and counts within these empires, several dukes have already asked to stop this practice, so it seems that even if we don't care, the counterattack of those empires will be forced to cancel over time.
"Humph! A group of clowns who jumped off the beam, dared to claim the emperor with hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land, and didn't want to think about how backward the economy, life, and military level of their own country was, and if it weren't for the orc troops outside Nottingham's territory to attract all 40% of the empire's land forces there, I would have been able to command these soldiers stationed in Nottingham to incorporate all the coastlines of the northwest continent into the empire's territory, and advance the strategic plan to the inland strategy. ”
"Your Majesty. Didn't you say that the orcs only numbered those tribes? Why hasn't General Bobby cleaned it up until now? ”
"Humph! In order to migrate to the rich New Delhi Peninsula, the orc leaders of those tribes actually passed on the secrets of the New Delhi Peninsula. Now although the army in Bobby's hands is about to break 10,000, and the cavalry force has reached about 3,000 people, it is still very difficult for several large orc tribes that have newly migrated. The wealth earned from the silver mines and Naga trade has also been retained. ”
"That's bad news, it looks like we're going to have to rely on Yorktown's trade tax to expand our army............ By the way, Your Majesty, just when I was delivering the report, one of the soldiers told me that a man claiming to be an emissary of the Leanster Empire had been sent to the best tavern in the city to be received by you, and it was up to you to see if you were ................"
"Coming so soon? All right! I'll just go and see. ”
