Before ascending to God, be a good lord

Chapter 444 441. The New Look of Iowa Town
On July 997, 7, that is, the night of 10 days ago, in the meditation room of Yeqi City, facing Ben Kaur's question, Rand suddenly thought of the famous saying in his hometown: "I went to fight the orcs, not because it is very It's easy, but it's hard."

Looking at the inexplicably confident Rand, the legendary mage looked at his silly son, "You are still fighting against the orcs?"

Lante naturally understood that the inexplicable self-confidence could not fool the legend, so he could only answer seriously, "It is not me who fights, but the barbarians of the entire Galloping Horse Plain.

The greatest self-confidence of the orcs these years is that they feel that they are the fathers of the barbarians. They feel that they left Yeqi City and left the Galloping Horse Plain to the barbarians as a charity from them.

In fact, they just couldn't adapt to the harsh local environment and chose to leave. The barbarians are not their sons, but the victors who have adapted to the plain environment. Now this plain has found a new barbarian god and a new industrial model , a new form of organization. "

After listening to Rand's words, Ben fell into silence, because according to Rand's logic, it can also be applied to the relationship between the Galloping Horse Plain and the human empire, but after thinking about it carefully, the relationship between the two was also pulled because the barbarians believed in the God-Emperor. They are much closer. It can be said that they are independent and naturally close to each other.

For a legend of the Tower of Purity faction like Ben Kaur, Yeqi City he most hopes is the state it was 300 years ago. The protector of the royal family of the galloping horse, and the relationship between the two places conceived and implemented by Rand is obviously not ideal.

If any other non-legendary family encountered the same situation, I didn't believe that they would be able to keep the Benma Plain intact.

Facing the orcs, these families either rely on the Tower of Purity or the Red Dragon Rock, or give up at least half of their territory in exchange for peace with the orcs.

However, Rand just in front of him has just built a new magic furnace for the human empire. This is something that has never happened since the goblin era. There is no doubt that compared to a large piece of useless land, the orc royal court will definitely be willing to use it. Peace for a new magic furnace.

Ben Kaul did not continue the discussion with Rand, because to some extent, the imperial capital's attitude towards border conflicts is very likely to tilt with the development of Rand, if Rand shows too strong control over the Benma Plain The top brass of the empire don't even mind using the orcs to create a crisis.

Watching Ben heaved a long sigh, Rand also understood that everything is a bargaining chip in front of power.

Ben's dignified expression 5 days ago was deeply imprinted in Rand's memory. Rand knew that his answer and performance did not fully satisfy the legendary mage. However, after a long period of observation, the current situation is that Rand The best situation Te can think of, he doesn't believe that people other than himself can handle the relationship between humans, barbarians and half-orcs well.

As Rand continued to fall into memories, the little cardinals were still reporting various information about the territory. Now there are three trading routes in the territory. The Wangdu Line is the traditional salt and iron trafficking route; The mountain pass camp goes all the way to White Wolf City in the east, running through the entire plain for thousands of kilometers; the last perimeter line starts from Rotor and surrounds the entire Northwest Barony.

In addition to these three main lines, the Territory also has an irregular business that goes east from the Frostwolf Forest to the White Owl Territory, goes west from the Iowa Pass to supply iron ore to the Hindukel Valley, and goes south through White Tree City to Elk City in the southern Marquis. Team.These foreign caravans brought the special shochu, 4 kinds of potion wine, and 6 kinds of magic wine to the barons, viscounts, and half-orc tribes in various regions, bought local magic plants and special products, and brought back information from various places. .

"Little Cardinal, ask Yeqi City to send me a bottle of each kind of fine wine, I may use it next time" When the Little Cardinal finished the report and made the final arrangement "The eastern border is being watched Well, my ancestors told me when they arrived at Camp No. 2 in the Great Forest, and I might take a look.

In addition, after Sophia and the others finish their magic furnace, they will install the western part first, and then the eastern part. You must tell me at least one day in advance before starting the installation! "

"Okay, my lord, in fact, Sophia and the others will not have any problems during transportation."

"Who said they would have problems, it is Ben Kaur who will definitely come to install with them, and I have to prepare the exquisite ball for him in advance." Rand said helplessly.

Finally, all the government affairs of Yeqi City were handled, and Rand was able to stay clean for half a month. Little Cardinal is a very qualified assistant and has prestige in the territory. However, she can only do information analysis and upload, not like Laniya Make decisions and arrangements.So much so that after winning the iron mine, Rand now spends significantly more time dealing with government affairs.

After he had free time, Rand looked at the small town of Iowa under his castle. After two months, dozens of barbarian tribes and half-orc tribes had gathered in the east of the pass, gradually forming a small town.

When Rand was here last time, he built some public buildings in the town, such as service halls, blacksmith shops, windmills and taverns, etc. Now that he has returned from Abedi, Rand has more ideas and wants to make the place It was further transformed into a central town where barbarians and orcs exchanged and traded.

……

On July 7, a caravan from Hinduker entered the small town of Iowa through the pass. This team had also arrived here a month ago, but this time they were surprised to find that the original town could only be regarded as The barbarian camps lined up along the road have changed drastically.

On the cliff to the west of the town, that is, on the east side of the north slope of the mountain pass, there is now a 50-meter-high giant sculpture of the barbarian god. The barbarian god is dressed as a knight, with a sword in his left hand and a torch in his right hand. In the direction of Yeqi City in the east.

On the east side of the south slope, there is a statue of the ancestor of the lord of Yeqi City. The statue is dressed as half barbarian and half knight, with a staff in his left hand. It echoes the sculpture of the barbarian god on the northern slope.

With the huge sculptures of gods, the size of the town has naturally expanded several times. The original barbarian camp was arranged on the east side of the town, and many temples and churches were built along the hillside on the west side, and the center of the town also appeared. There is a circular central square and a bazaar, and fixed shops in several streets are arranged around the square.

The old man Sonitu who came with the caravan thought his eyes were blurred, but after entering the Fire Tavern, he slowly heard that everything in the town was completed in one day yesterday, and yesterday the great barbarian god And descended to bless the town.

Among the barbarian and half-orc tribes, there were also many caravans and various craftsmen. The town provided these people with free market stalls and shops, and appointed tribal priests as local priests.

With the two miracles of building the city in one day and the descending of the true god, the residents and barbarians in the whole town firmly believed that the lord of Yeqi City could hold on to the valley, and the singing of the Benma family was heard everywhere in the town.

"This is really troublesome." Sonitu, who looks like a barbarian old man, shook his head. "The barbarian can really find the god? He is still a knight?"

"This old man? Are you interested in having a drink together?" A young barbarian walked up to Sonitu and brought him a glass of shochu.
