Another World Super Dimension Summoner

Everyone nodded, and tried their best to get rid of the messy associative images in their minds. While concentrating their minds, Lin said.

"It's just that this place is too big, it's just like a palace. Should we separate into different houses? Or should we choose a palace building and live together like before? Let me first tell you my personal preference. I still think it's more comfortable for everyone to live together."

Liya nodded directly, "I agree that everyone should come together."

Sophia looked around and said, "I agree with getting together."

"Same." Zhang Xiaoyun raised her right hand to show her agreement, and then said, "By the way, how do the servants at home do it? Don't do it like the one in Xianglily Villa."

Xiao Bai said, "I agree to do the same as before. As for the servants, let's see what the character Xiao Bin manifests is like tonight."

"Oh? We're finally working on this." Zhang Xiaoyun's eyes lit up like everyone else.

"Yes, or rather, Xiaobin is now suitable to do those things. Let's not talk about that for now. What about you, Edith?" Xiaobai said, looking at Edith.

Edith nodded. "We've been getting along pretty well over the past year. I have no objection."

"Okay then. Where's Lilina?" Xiaobai looked at the black dragon Lilina, who played the background in most cases.

If it was before, Lilina would definitely say "follow the princess's arrangement", but after a year of getting along, Lilina is no longer so restrained, so she smiled and said, "I agree, it's good for us to get together."

"Well, now it's up to Cagalli, Yan, and Theresa to decide." Xiaobai nodded and said, "We'll ask Cagalli through the chat group later, but there's a 99% chance that she won't have any objections, and given her personality, she won't be a maverick. As for Yan, it's basically certain that she'll choose a way to get closer to us. As for Theresa - can she get used to it?"

As he spoke, Xiaobai looked at Sofia.

Because Sofia and Theresa are very familiar with each other, at least she has spent much more time with Theresa than other people.

Seeing that everyone was looking over, Sophia said, "It's okay. Teresa actually has a very similar personality to Lilina. Well, she's gentle on the outside but strong on the inside and very affectionate."

"Eh?" Lilina was stunned for a moment, and then her little face turned red with embarrassment.

Sofia reached out and touched Lilina's chin in a very rogue manner, causing Lilina to subconsciously take a step back, and her face turned even redder.

Sophia continued with a smile, "Teresa is not a qualified imperial princess, but she is a gentle and kind girl next door. If she has to choose between living alone or living with everyone, she will definitely choose to live with everyone. Of course, this is just the feeling she gives me. The actual situation will only be clear after we spend a long time together in the future."

Sophia's words were meaningful, and Xiaobai and the others certainly understood.

After all, no one would really think that a favored princess of a great empire would be a true "silly naive" person.

"Is that so..." Xiaobai nodded and said, "Let's do this. Xiaobin and I will go to the capital of Kana in a few days to get a teleportation array or something. Let Xiaobin ask then. If Teresa is willing to stay with us, we will try our best to 'transform' her into one of our own. If she is not willing, there are plenty of palaces and pavilions here anyway, so she can do whatever she wants."

After hearing what Xiaobai said, everyone nodded seriously to show that they understood what to do.

Edith, on the other hand, suddenly said, "Actually, it's okay for you to consider these things, and it's a good thing to be cautious. But there is one thing I have to remind you of, that is, Jun Yu's 'momentum' has already been established, and those who really understand Jun Yu, unless they have a problem with their brains, will not be stupid enough to join the team that opposes Jun Yu when it comes to key decisions and standing.

Of course, I'm not saying this to let you down, but Teresa will be Jun Yu's woman in the future, after all, and she is special, so it's important to be cautious, but don't overdo it."

"you're right."

Xiaobai nodded to show that he understood, and so did Leah and the others. After all, everyone understood.

We are all family members, and if we are overly cautious and this creates grudges, it will not be good for anyone.

Edith continued, "Also, we can be a little more casual, but Xiaobai can't. In fact, for many things that require a statement, Xiaobai is better off being the last one to make a statement, as a decisive attitude equal to Junyu. At the same time, you can't show excessive favoritism towards anyone. Everything should be done according to the rules as much as possible. Otherwise, with more people and longer time, the probability of problems will be greater."

The principal wife...

Xiaobai pursed her lips. At this moment, she had already realized that being the 'boss' was not so easy.

Leah and the others, who had also recalled the past, gradually began to feel a sense of relief.

The reason is simple. The position of the principal wife is a constraint in some ways.

People like Leah have the same status as the main wife as a co-wife, but they do not have to bear the responsibilities and self-restraint that comes with the main wife's identity. Even if they occasionally make mistakes or make trouble, they will only be forgiven. No matter how much accountability they can impose, there is a limit.

On the other hand, the wife's every word and action is always under the spotlight. Not to mention making mistakes, she must be very careful with her words and actions, otherwise she will easily lose credibility. It goes without saying what will happen if a "boss" loses credibility.

In this case, it is easy to imagine which is better.

"Of course, the above is based on my experience as the Elf King in controlling my ministers for hundreds of years. I cannot guarantee that all of them can be reasonably applied. However, I think that the problems in the family circle are theoretically more complicated and difficult to grasp.

Because as an emperor, he has to control his ministers and can be ruthless when necessary. He can even get extra points by showing his ruthlessness and decisiveness relatively reasonably occasionally.

However, here, unless someone has made an unforgivable mistake, one has to consider feelings first and foremost, and thus cannot, or must not, be ruthless.

This means that the solution depends on your ability to coordinate all parties, Xiaobai. Don't be confused. I'm not saying this because I'm obsessed with the position of the main wife. I've been the emperor for so many years, and I'm tired of personnel management issues. If it weren't for the problem of the God Clan, I might have abdicated many years ago to accompany my teacher. But I'm also glad that I didn't abdicate too early, otherwise I might have missed the meeting and knowing of Jun Yu in the future. "

As she spoke, Edith couldn't help but smile sweetly.

The beauty that could truly shame the moon and flowers made Xiaobai and others feel a few ripples in their hearts.

It has to be said that this former Elf King is truly a perfect existence that appeals to both men and women, young and old.

"Hey, Edith... I'll remember what you said." Xiaobai quickly adjusted his mind and said seriously, "To be honest, I'm at a loss now, but things have come to this point, so I can only bite the bullet and go for it."

Lin on the side said, "Relax, at least it's okay here, Xiaobai can just be casual. The problem Edith mentioned will most likely only happen to the 'newcomers' in the future. After all, we all fought for the position of the principal wife, and finally decided to give up after careful consideration."

"Yes." Zhang Xiaoyun said with a smile, "Conflicts in the harem like this are caused by imbalance in the heart. To be honest, I am the one with the darkest heart among those present. However, after getting along with everyone for a long time, I feel that there is nothing that I cannot accept with a calm mind. This shows that the way we got along before was right. As long as we maintain this point, I think even newcomers will gradually be assimilated by us, the 'majority', and thus maintain the best atmosphere in our family at present."

What Zhang Xiaoyun said was the truth, and it was not an exaggeration at all. As a former reincarnation, she had experienced murder, arson, fraud and other things for many years. It was impossible for her not to have a dark heart. However, after staying with Xiaobai and the others for a long time, the haze in Zhang Xiaoyun's heart was rapidly dissipating.

I don’t know if Xiaobai and the others are born with the ability to purify people’s hearts, or if the atmosphere of this family is so healing, but Zhang Xiaoyun has now completely opened her heart.

Chapter 223: Beauty is only relative

"That's true, but I think Lin is the darkest one," Liya suddenly said, "She always smiles in public but secretly acts like a knife."

Lin glanced at Liya, but didn't care. Instead, she said, "Xiaoyun's assimilation is fine, but why do we have to talk about it under the premise that 'there will definitely be new people in the future'?"

"..."XN

Lin added, "Of course, if Xiao Binbin really isn't satisfied, that's fine, but there has to be a prerequisite."

"premise?"

Xiaobai and others were confused.

Lin said with a smile, "The premise is that Xiao Binbin can't go to the pot before he is satisfied with what's in the bowl."

"!!" Xiaobai and others widened their eyes.

Lin continued, "If Xiao Binbin still has the energy to look into the pot after satisfying the bowl, then I have nothing to say, and I think you guys are the same. So, we should study how to squeeze... well, how to satisfy Xiao Binbin in the bowl~"

"Huh~ This matter, we need to discuss it in detail~"

Xiaobai let out a light breath and came over.

When Leah and the others saw this, they also came over with blushing faces.

Then, this became a special forum that made people's hearts beat fast and their faces blush...

......

In the office of Governor Qin, Qin Bin, who was discussing the population issue of his fiefdom with Yan Mond on the sofa in front of the coffee table, suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart, and he couldn't help but shiver.

"Your Majesty?" Yan Mond, who was sitting side by side with Qin Bin, holding a pen and a notebook in her hands, looked over puzzledly.

Qin Bin shook his head, thinking that the beauty beside him was just distracting him again.

"Yan, according to what you said before, there are more than two million poor people in Zuoxu Province who need to be dealt with immediately?"

Zuoxu Province was Qin's neighbor to the east.

Yan Monde did not dwell on Qin Bin's previous strangeness, but nodded and said, "Yes. After the incident in Ian Territory, the sea, land and air trade lines connecting southeast Kana with the central and western countries of the continent were almost cut off. Within 20 years, it gradually changed from a famous wealthy province to a poor area.

It was also because the trade routes were almost interrupted that the nobles and wealthy businessmen in Zuoxu Province turned their attention back to the land, which indirectly led to extremely serious land annexation in Zuoxu Province. A large number of low-level farmers who lost their land could only go to the city to work. However, the workshops dominated by the nobles could only provide very limited jobs. In addition, the rapid development of various magical equipment caused many jobs that originally relied on a large number of laborers to be drastically reduced, further exacerbating the problem of surplus labor at the bottom.

Right now, just outside the county town where Zuo Xu's provincial government is located, there is a slum with a population of 600,000 to 700,000 people, and the situation outside other county towns in the province is not much better."

"This is really..." Qin Bin said with a little emotion, "The statistics I saw in the imperial capital are really overly optimistic."

"It's far away anyway, and the people in the empire don't have the energy to keep an eye on it all the time." Yan Mond said, "Kana may seem glamorous, but in reality, there are many problems, especially in people's livelihood, and it's almost time to solve them.

Fortunately, the Kana Center has not been completely corrupted, and the capable emperor has regained his youth because of the Lord. It's just that the orc issue has distracted the Kana Center's attention. Otherwise, I think the Kana Emperor would focus on solving people's livelihood issues in the next few years, or even a dozen years."

"It's really unlucky." Qin Bin took over the conversation, "But even if there were no orcs, this would still be a fatal problem. The interests of the nobles are not so easy to change. And it's not so easy to make a big cake."

"The cake... Your Majesty's analogy is very appropriate. In addition to affecting the interests of the nobles, Emperor Kana currently has two other options. One is to make the cake bigger, that is, to create more wealth for the poor at the bottom, thereby alleviating the problem."

"Oh? What about the second one?" Qin Bin was curious.

Yan Mond considered her words for a moment before saying, "If you can't solve the problem, then solve the person who created the problem."

Qin Bin's heart moved, but he continued to listen expressionlessly.

Seeing Qin Bin like this, Yan Monde continued, "Hundreds of years of relative peace have brought Kana and even the entire East Continent into a period of explosive population growth. Even the all-out war with the orcs decades ago did not interrupt this population explosion. On the other hand, in the West Continent, because of hundreds of countries and hundreds of years of annexation wars, there is no population pressure problem. Therefore, war is a reasonable consumption point.

At present, the population of the orcs is actually not less than that of Kana, and is even a little more.

According to a lot of information, the orc nobles are much better off than the Kana nobles in some aspects, which also means that the orcs seem to be more in need of solving the problem of overpopulation than Kana.

Then, starting last year, the orcs started causing border frictions.

Although it is not known why both sides have been patient for nearly a year, it seems as if the top leaders of both sides are trying hard to launch an all-out war prematurely. However, it seems that this stalemate will not last this year.

By then, I think the problem of overpopulation will be solved.”

"..."

Qin Bin was silent.

His first reaction to Yan Mond's words was conspiracy theory.

After all, he knew that the gods were behind this.

However, he soon realized that it was because he looked at the issue from the standpoint and perspective of a 21st century person that he felt it was a conspiracy theory.

But once you look at it from the perspective of the feudal aristocratic era when the lives of the lower classes were worthless, everything becomes different.

It is not impossible to send the excess population, which has become a burden or even a hidden danger, to the battlefield to be consumed!

As for the fact that the gods were playing tricks behind the scenes, it did not conflict with the fact that the feudal rulers were using war to clear out the excess population!

Yan Monde thought Qin Bin's silence was a sign of his unwillingness, so after a little hesitation, she said, "Your Majesty, there is one more thing to note, that is, the population of our fiefdom can come from any province in Kana, but not from any noble fiefdom.

For the nobles, the people of the fiefdom are their private property. This is completely legal and recognized by the nobles of the entire Eternal Continent. The surplus population is the best choice to fill the legal military service and corvée labor of Kana. "

Qin Bin nodded expressionlessly, "I understand."

Yan Monde said, "It's good that Your Majesty understands. Also, if in the future other nobles see that we are doing well here and the poor can live a life like human beings here, and then sneak over to our fiefdom - well, if this situation really happens, I hope Your Majesty will ignore it and let me handle it."

Qin Bin looked back at Yan Mond and shook his head, "I don't have the habit of pushing difficulties onto my woman."

Yan Monde paused for a moment, then smiled sweetly, "Based on my assumptions above, how does Your Majesty intend to deal with it?"

Qin Bin said, "In such a hypothetical scenario, it can be reasonably resolved with a nice speech and some money."

"Once this opening is made, if the nobles cannot handle the excess population in a short period of time, they will have expectations of the Lord."

"Qin Territory is not small and can support a lot of people, and Ian Territory is even bigger."

"Your Majesty has the money and land to support more people, but it can't just be considered an investment, right?"

"The war requires a lot of food, and the high-yield crops I made can be our reliance. The geographical location of Ian Territory and Qin Territory is very suitable to become the trade hub of the eastern and western countries. If it is well managed, the more investment, the more income will be."

"Sir, you are close to a perfect score."

There was a flash of comfort and joy in Yan Mond's eyes, because she was relieved. The man in front of her was kind by nature, but not blind. He knew that solving problems was the key, not creating more problems out of kindness.

"You are testing me indeed." Qin Bin smiled and was about to reach out to rub Yan Monde's 'rabbit head', but he reacted after a moment, so in the end he changed his mind and lightly scratched Yan Monde's nose with his fingers.

"..."

Yan Mond was slightly stunned by this kind of intimacy, and her heart immediately felt a little sweeter.

She didn't hate this kind of intimacy, in fact, she liked it a little bit.

At this time, Qin Bin said, "It's just close to full marks, so what's missing from my answer?"

Yan Monde smiled and said, "It's not your fault, Your Majesty. I am just not used to making absolute conclusions about anything."

"It's a good habit to leave room for maneuver." Qin Bin nodded. "Don't you think my previous answer was a bit naive? I was always thinking about avoiding conflicts."

Yan Monde shook her head. "If you don't have the ability to do it and still think so, then you are naive. However, with your current influence and strength, you can really do it. This is a relatively mild and conservative strategic idea."

"If I'm greedy and set my sights on the land around Qin Ling, will you support me?"

Qin Bin's sudden words made Yan Mond's eyes light up, but she shook her head and said, "This requires a prerequisite."

Sure enough, this new wife is also a restless person... But I like it!

Thinking of this, Qin Bin also asked, "What is the premise?"

"The premise is whether Kana wins or loses in the new round of all-out war that is about to start with the orcs. If the former is the case, I will advise the king to focus on developing his own fiefdom. If the latter is the case, I will advise the king to look at the entire southeast of Kana."
