Gou is a dark elf in Warhammer

Chapter 828 679 Nagaros Grand Grass Terrace

The so-called House of Peoples is essentially the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Responsible for social affairs management and livelihood services, its functions cover a wide range and penetrate almost every corner of social life. Although its name sounds a bit warm and idealistic, in Nagaros, it is a very realistic institution that not only shows benevolence, but also makes the operation of the entire society more efficient and stable.

At present, the main task of the House of Peoples is governance. The most basic task is to assist Hillsis in adjusting streets, street layout, optimizing urban structure, and ensuring that the functions of each residential area are reasonably divided.

This is the first step. After this stage is completed, Wanminyuan will further improve the community system and establish a "residential committee". This is not only for the convenience of management, but also to lay the foundation for the future.

In addition, it is also responsible for marriage and family services.

In Nagarus, high-level marriages are never simple private affairs, but are important links involving family, interests, and even political marriages. The lower-level marriages do not need to be processed, and there is no need to process them. According to what Dacus learned in social surveys, it is basically a case of a turtle looking at a green bean, and if they get tired of each other, they will separate, or something else, designated and formulated.

But this will definitely not work in the future. Future policies will continue to be gradually passed down to the public, and at the same time, provide guidance to new mothers on how to care for babies and care for children's growth.

As for adoption registration, reviewing the legality of adoption relationships, and protecting the rights of adopted children, there is no such thing at present. This is within the scope of social assistance and welfare. Child assistance had been implemented long before Dacus left Nagarus. The custody of orphans has long been in the hands of the Night Overlords in various places. What needs to be done now is to formally hand over these powers to the Ministry of Peoples to complete systematic management.

Currently, the only social assistance and welfare available is child welfare, and others include minimum living security, assistance for the extremely poor, temporary assistance, disability welfare, etc...well.

In this world, there are situations that can be applied, but not always.

The disability welfare policy has indeed begun to be implemented, but it is not a simple issuance of living allowances or nursing subsidies. Instead, it is a more practical approach to set up a disability protection home next to the children's welfare home to provide basic living security for the disabled, ensuring that they have food to eat, a place to live, and dedicated people to take care of them.

After the battle between Gorond and Har Ganthe, a large number of wounded soldiers needed to be resettled. Their accommodation work is nearing completion. When the ice of the Sea of ​​Malice melts, these people will be sent to Asheril for treatment. When they appear in Naggaroth again, they will be brave men again.

Subsequently, similar relief agencies will be gradually promoted to other cities.

There are no weak people in Naggaroth. That was the case in the past. Now, things have changed. Naggaroth does not keep idle people.

Only temporary relief policies will be introduced in the future to provide emergency assistance to families or individuals who are in sudden difficulties.

There is no minimum living allowance or assistance for the extremely poor. Again, Nagaros does not support idlers. Of course, there are some, but the form of expression is different. As long as you can move, you have to work.

Whether doing piecework or participating in urban construction, everyone must work to survive.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs has a clear goal: to allow this group of people to replace the existing labor dispatch system so that they can both maintain their livelihoods and contribute value to society.

In terms of social organization management, there will be in the future, but not now, as the land of Naggaroth does not have the soil for it.

In terms of special groups, assistance for homeless beggars? Are there still such people in Naggaroth? Are they referring to the dark shadows active in the mountains?
As for elderly care, it seems to be an indispensable part, but the peculiarities of the elves make this concept unnecessary. Elves only have young ones, not old ones. Elves have a long life span, and their body functions do not decline with age, so there is no such thing as elderly care.

If they really want to have pensions, they should wait until Ulthuan.

Veterans' preferential treatment will not be implemented for the time being. The proportion of soldiers retiring this time is very small. After layers of screening, most of them have places to go and are taken over and resettled by other hospitals. There are so few that they do not need special management. The real large-scale wave of soldier retirement will not come until the end of King's Landing Ulthuan. At that time, we will consider establishing a complete veterans management agency.

Therefore, this is the policy at the current stage: proceed step by step and then move forward cautiously. If you take too big a step, you may get into trouble easily.

As Hemara's name echoed in the hall, the air froze for a moment.

Her existence, like the shadow magic she was proficient in, was silent but could not be ignored. She had extraordinary spellcasting ability and was an important chess piece in the hands of the Witch King, responsible for those dirty jobs that could not be seen in the light, such as arresting, instigating, and assassinating. Her name was both feared and daunted in the powerful circles of Naggarond.

Before the First Battle of Grond, the Witch King sent her to capture the Horseless Brother. She participated in the entire operation and completed the task ruthlessly and efficiently. Occasionally, she was sent by the Witch King to stir up disputes between the powerful and nobles, using her magic and means to make those high and mighty nobles suspicious of each other and fight. When the Witch King sent Aegileth to Elsing Arwen to find Dakwus, she also accompanied him.

However, Hemara is not just a tool to perform tasks. On ordinary days, she also provides magical support to the nobles of Nagarond, whether it is prophecy, making magic props, or participating in battles after receiving payment. These are all within the scope of her service. Her ability allows her to thrive in the circle of nobles, but her identity is always on a delicate edge and she cannot fit in.

This was also the reason why the atmosphere in the hall froze slightly when Daxus called out her name. As early as when she entered the council hall and sat in that seat, the remaining nobles in Nagarond felt nervous and whispered in their hearts.

The appearance of Hemara is like a silent warning, reminding everyone: the game of thrones has never paused, and Hemara is still an indispensable character in this game.

Before Dacus went to Gorond, he had a deep conversation with Hemara. After all, he had promised her that he would provide her with a brand new future. During the conversation, he asked Hemara what she wanted to do, but Hemara just shook her head blankly, with fatigue in her eyes, as if her past life had made her lose her direction.

So, Dacus gave Hemara three options: go to the Nagor and assist Annasara in her work; become Drusara's deputy and assist in educational work; or preside over the House of Peoples and carry out civil affairs.

However, all three options were beyond Hemala's expectations, and she did not make a choice immediately because these options did not fully match her envisioned future. She had lost interest in the pursuit of power, and all she wanted was to get rid of her past life, clear her identity, and live a more normal and peaceful life. She had thought about going to Asheril and living a retirement-like life away from these disputes and conspiracies.

Finally, under Dacus's patient and careful persuasion, Hemara chose the third option, becoming an Asati priest and managing the House of Peoples. This choice was not out of her desire for power, but because she realized that this was what Dacus wanted to see.

Dacus believed that although Hemala might not know how to do the job, she was capable. All he needed to do was to provide the right guidance and help her get on the right track.

In addition, Hemara has a special label, which makes her a key chess piece in Dacus's political layout. This is exactly the same as Dacus's practice of asking Malekith to choose one of the tax collectors to go to the Sea of ​​the Abyss to ride the waves. Both are a kind of political power balance, new distribution and layout.

Hemala's existence is far more than just managing the House of Peoples. Her appearance is also a signal of changes in the social structure of Druch. She is one of the symbols of this change.

Hemala stood up and sat down according to the procedure. Her movements were calm and peaceful, as if all this was just another task in her long career. But her deep eyes revealed a hint of complex emotions that were difficult to detect, which were expectations for the future and farewell to the past. She knew that from this moment on, she would stand at a new starting point and try to understand, adapt, and change.

"Soul Herald Officer, Ilanya Hooked Claw Storm, Ten Thousand Peoples Court, Deputy Director of Ten Thousand Peoples, responsible for carrying out the work of Asheril."

Daxus's voice echoed in the hall, clear and powerful, and his gaze immediately turned to the army stand and fell on Yilanya's father, Hail Hooked Claw Storm.

The moment he heard Yilanya's name, Haier, who had adjusted his dress, stood up impatiently, moving quickly and forcefully, for fear of missing this important moment.

He was excited, even ecstatic. He had no reason not to be excited. He had made the right move.

Originally, although the Crooked Claw Storm family was among the eight powerful families of Hag Graves, its strength was always in the middle. Its wealth, reputation and number of warriors were always ranked fifth or sixth. Compared with the previous families, it was always a little bit behind.

Thanks to the relationship between Claddin and Darkius, his family successfully established a connection with Darkius. After establishing a connection, the family not only avoided the purge, but also greatly increased its strength under the new situation, and now ranks third in Hag Graves.

Ilanya and Kladin, as well as some of the family members, became Dacus's followers and followed him. During the time when Dacus disappeared, he was also highly valued by Draka. Now that Dacus has returned, his children and family members have also returned and taken up important positions.

The fruit was finally ripe, and he had no reason not to be excited.

The moment he stood up, he could feel the gazes of those around him, surprise, envy, and jealousy.

Those jealous glances were particularly glaring, and he knew who they came from.

Jealousy usually comes from people who are close to you, not those who are unfamiliar to you.

Not everyone's child can have a relationship with Dacus, and not everyone can make the right move like him in that chaotic situation. Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a fake smile, and his eyes swept across those jealous faces, silently declaring his victory.

"Dragon Flame Arbiter, Modax, Peace Institute, Peace Director." Daxus's voice sounded again, breaking the brief silence.

Modax, in dragon form, stood up slowly according to the procedure. Her body was tall and majestic, and her scales and decorations gleamed with metallic luster under the light. She then sat down again, her movements steady and solemn.

The red dragons sitting in the stands also followed the local customs and learned the etiquette of the elves. They did not roar and maintained order in the venue.

"One more thing. Perhaps everyone is curious about what this institute does?" Dacus' voice was light and cheerful. "It's very simple. When you want to reach some kind of agreement, the honorable Ms. Modax will build a bridge between you."

The core of the powerful is the army, not these courts. For them, the existence of these courts does not make much difference, at least when these courts are not fully operational. Of course, if they or their family members can hold a position in them, it would be great.

But the House of Peace was different. In Daxus's plan, the House of Peace was divided into three stages: the Naggaroth period, and the transition period before and after Ulthuan.

In Naggaroth, the main responsibility of the Peace House was to build a bridge between Duruchi and the red dragons. The nobles wanted to get the help of the red dragons, and some red dragons needed money. The second point was oaths, partnerships, and so on...

In addition to this, Modax also acts as an agent, declaring the political status of red dragons in Duruchi society, as opposed to that of black dragons.

After arriving in Ulthuan, the Peace Council will have a deputy position, similar to the Racial Affairs Committee, responsible for handling the internal affairs of the elves, carrying out education, culture, rights protection, etc. After this period of transition is completed, the Peace Council may be merged into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, or the deputy position may be withdrawn.

Daxus is not completely sure about this future plan. Although he likes to plan ahead, this goal is too far away and it is too early to talk about it now.

Dacus has no plans to establish a Ministry of Agriculture at the moment, although Alyssa has assumed the duties of Minister of Agriculture. This job involves many aspects, and he intends to wait until Ulthuan to consider the matter further. Of course, although the Ministry of Agriculture has not been established for the time being, the land still needs to be cultivated, and agricultural affairs cannot stagnate.

Tilya Silverwing and Saralaire Soulwalker are Asrai, Spellweavers, maidens and priests of Ariel, and leaders of the Sisters of Thorns.

After losing the people they served, they chose to leave Athel Loren. When Darkus left Asheril, the Thorn Sisters were divided. Saraleel decided to stay in Asheril and continue to assist Alyssa in her work, while Tilya came to Naggaroth and became Malekith's maid.

Malekith had welcomed the arrival of the Thorn Sisters when communicating with Daxus through the mirror before, and specially prepared a room for them in the Black Tower. After a period of getting along, the relationship between them was very harmonious, especially during the conversation, Malekith learned that Tilya had served Alisara when she was young, until Alisara left Athel Loren.

Who is Alisara? (Chapter 113)
Ariel's sister, Malekith's wife, so... the Twilight sisters are Malekith's nieces, there's nothing wrong with that.

However, Malekith is not the same as before. He doesn't need Tilya to do anything, such as dressing, daily life, and meals. His palace is called a palace, but it is just that. There are only a few people in the Black Tower. With the return of Daquus, the Black Tower has become an office. Later, he usually does not stay in the Black Tower. He is mainly responsible for military affairs and usually stays in the barracks to deal with officers and soldiers.

When he was in Asheril, Daxus had thought about the vegetable basket plan, which was to dig caves near Naggarond. In addition to growing vegetables, the behemoths needed to live in the caves on weekdays to keep warm.

He planned to start the project after the reconstruction of Nagalond was completed, so that there would be vegetables on the tables of Duruch and the dispatched laborers, with plenty of carrots, cabbage, radishes, and mushrooms for them to eat as much as they wanted. He also planned to grow some fruits suitable for the cold climate.

To achieve this, the Thorn Sisters need to put in some effort. After they do, the next step is the crucial part.

Dacus had a talk with Maranul once, but the content of the talk was not about the plan of Krakarond, but about how to destroy the large estate system of Krakarond.

The large estates of Duruchi are somewhat similar to those during the Roman Republic period. Through external conquest and expansion, they plundered a large amount of wealth, captured a large number of slaves, and took large tracts of unowned land around Clarkalond as private property. They used cheap labor dispatch to operate agriculture and established large estates with labor dispatch system.

This was not a good idea. He did not want to bring this system to Ossuan and let the rich and powerful play land grabbing and horse racing. He wanted to protect the interests of the basic base of civilians and retired soldiers and let the rich and powerful shift their focus from land to other places.

In the process of destruction, there is also the need for reconstruction.

He focused on the Shadow Forest north of Clarkalond. He planned to carry out large-scale logging in the Shadow Forest during the construction of the railway. He needed wood and land for cultivation. He couldn't take it away anyway, so he might as well cut it down now.

As for tree roots, land reclamation and so on… there is magic in this world, so water is not a problem.

After clearing the wasteland, edible crops will be planted, a process that requires the Thorn Sisters to invest more effort.

Sisters of Thorn: I came to Naggaroth to enjoy myself, and you want me to farm?
After the reclamation of the Shadow Forest is completed, he will shift his attention to the Venom Forest south of the Red Poison River. He wants to ensure that everyone has food to eat when the population of Naggaroth explodes, otherwise something bad will happen.

He could not guarantee that the supply of materials in Asheril would be stable and the routes would be unimpeded. If something happened that happened to Da Ying at some point in her life, she would not be completely finished if she had her period. She would not be suffocated by the breath and would be able to breathe, so she would have time to make decisions and deployments.

To do this, he had to make preparations for both scenarios, the classic Dacian style of having three burrows.

The Ministry of Science and Technology will not be established for the time being. When we reach Ossuan, we will split up the Institute of Industry and Construction and introduce it into the Hos system. Others, such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Security, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Transport, etc., will also be discussed after Ossuan.

The distribution of power is like a sophisticated game of chess. Every move must be carefully considered and every decision affects the future.

The same is true for the Ministry of Finance, which is temporarily in Dacus's own hands.

At this point, the central administrative system of Druki can be said to have taken shape. This system is sufficient to support the day when the King of Ulthuan comes. If there is still a need in the meantime, new institutions can be added.

"Hilsis, Night Warden of Naggarond."

When Hirsis stood up solemnly, Daxus's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile. He could feel that the emotions of those dignitaries were completely unbearable at this moment, especially the members of the Nagarond faction, whose expressions and emotions changed dramatically.

The eyes of the dignitaries were filled with disbelief, and some even had a clear expression on their faces: "Just him?" Of course, some dignitaries also showed expected expressions on their faces, as if all this had been expected by them.

However, despite the intense emotional fluctuations, there was no noise in the hall, let alone any voices of doubt. The silence of the dignitaries was like an invisible barrier, suppressing their dissatisfaction and doubts in their hearts. Those who survived the Great Purge knew that in this palace of power, questioning and opposition would only make them look stupid and incompetent.

Then, Daxus read out the names of Hag Graves and Caronde Karl as Night Warden and Valahar. As before, there were no changes to these four positions.

"Malanur Hellbane, Night Warden of Clar Karonde."

"Cowell Mogar, Krakaronde Valahar."

Compared to the strong reaction to Hirsis's appointment, the appointments of Maranur and Cowell seemed much calmer. The faces of the dignitaries were more surprised, especially the decision of the Hell's Disaster Family to give up the position of Valahal. However, soon, their expressions changed from surprise to understanding, and it was obvious that they had understood.

"The positions of Night Warden and Valahar of Gorond are temporarily vacant. We will make a decision in five years."

As Dacus spoke, he showed an expression that said "I understand, I understand". This sentence seemed to hint at something, but it did not say it explicitly, leaving the powerful people with unlimited room for imagination.

Now, Gorond can be said to be a completely empty city. Post-war statistics show that there are only about 800 civilians hiding in the city. These people are either slow runners or have unique survival skills, able to find a glimmer of hope in the chaos. Most people fled when the news first started, some hid in the mountains, and some fled to Nagarond to seek refuge.

All in all, the number of people who fled exceeded 5,000. In fact, the original population of Gorond was not large. Even without counting the losses in the Battle of Gorond, the city had been tossed twice in the past thousand years, and the population on weekdays was no more than 10,000.

Most of these people are servants and craftsmen who provide various services to Morathi, or speculators who are trying to find opportunities, as well as their families.

After the screening work is completed, the remaining civilians will be diverted and resettled, and when the army is reorganized, troops and military dependents will be stationed in Gorond.

This is also one of the reasons why Dacus said that he would decide after five years. He threw out a bait, hinting at future possibilities.

After all, no matter how much Gorond declined, the political status of Night Warden and Valahhar remained. For the powerful, these two positions not only symbolized power, but also related to the future layout and balance. One step ahead, all steps ahead.

"Walter Thornthorn, Night Warden of Asheril."

"Dorian Silverblade, Asheril Valahal."

There was no change in Asherel's appointment, which was expected by all the dignitaries. However, their eyes turned to Hirsis involuntarily, with complex emotions in their eyes, including scrutiny, speculation, and even a hint of contempt that was difficult to conceal. Hirsis's rise made many people feel uncomfortable, especially those who thought they were more qualified, but they could do nothing about it, at least for now.

Daxus decided to leave the division of provinces and regions to be discussed after Ulthuan.

At present, the appointment of ground administration has come to an end. The appointments before and after are not only a recognition of individuals, but also a reshaping of the entire Duruchi society.

Dacus stood there, his expression calm and profound, with an unquestionable majesty, as if silently declaring: the distribution of power has been completed, and the future pattern has begun to take shape.

Some of the dignitaries in the hall looked satisfied, while others frowned, thinking about future strategies. Every decision will cause new waves one day in the future.

However, today, this game of power has just begun. (End of this chapter)
