Becoming a Demon King from Inuyasha

"Let the next generation deal with their own affairs. If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. If you can't even handle this little problem, you are not qualified to be my successor."

Lisia breathed a sigh of relief and then said:

"Since His Majesty has made a decision, I am relieved. The next question is whether we should sell them guns and cannons."

Ye Men thought about it seriously and shook his head slightly:

"Refuse it. On the one hand, he is just testing the waters, and from what I said about the planes and airships, he inferred that we have developed guns and cannons."

"On the other hand, our guns and artillery are prepared for the Demon King's army and need to remain secret."

"Besides, even the kingdom has not yet achieved a complete replacement of its weapons. The weapons and equipment it sells are always defective ones. Who would sell their newly produced cutting-edge weapons? Wouldn't that be stupid?"

"I really don't trust their ability to keep secrets. If they are sold to the northern demon army, it will only increase our casualties during the northern expedition."

"Besides, the head is determined by the buttocks. The royal family is the largest aristocracy, and they are hostile to the rebels who want to abolish the aristocracy system."

"It's not like they'll declare war right away, but once he replaces the Kingdom of Melomag, he'll definitely be the enemy of the entire world. This is an irreconcilable contradiction between the two sides."

"So, you find a way to conceal the news about guns and cannons, whether it's using hypnosis or pretending to be demented, make sure they come to the conclusion that [guns and cannons cannot be made]."

Within the light curtain, it was obvious that Lisia's expression became a little dazed.

After a few seconds, an embarrassed expression appeared.

"Well, I may have been exposed just now. Among the people who came, there is a very powerful magician. Hypnosis magic probably won't work."

Ye Men was speechless for a long time and then sighed softly.

Well, Lisia is not a woman with good acting skills. To be honest, she is just a simple-minded girl. I am forcing her.

There is really no need to go there in person to perform hypnosis magic. With the large-scale replacement of equipment in the army, it will be difficult to keep hiding.

To be honest, Ye Men just wanted to delay the time for the Northern Demon King to know.

"Forget it. It doesn't matter if you don't hide it. Just drive them away."

"I understand." Lisia's expression relaxed a little.

"By the way, are you guys really busy at work these days?"

"Well... our armament department is fine. We have enough manpower, and everyone likes the new weapons and wants to master them as quickly as possible. The one who is busy is mainly Shiraori. She has too many things to take care of, and she hasn't slept for several days."

"In that case, let me think of a solution."

This is indeed not a good idea. Even though Baizhi is an angel and has excellent physical fitness, she can still go without sleep for days and nights.

But people are not beasts of burden, and mental stress always exists, not to mention psychological stress.

Listening to the sound of the night door on the other end of the phone, Lisia was inexplicably dazed.

Speaking of which, although he was rarely seen working seriously, the kingdom was indeed developing rapidly under his management.

Perhaps the Queen Mother was right, and the kingdom needed a new king like this.

If I had succeeded to the throne, I might still be worrying about how to solve the food crisis.

Chapter 146 Welcome to the New World

How can we fill the talent gap? This is a question.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Men was still thinking about this question.

Domestic aristocratic colleges? They are almost being fleeced.

Poaching talents from abroad? Trust is the biggest problem, and it is also a drop in the bucket.

The talent shortage caused by the country's rapid development is difficult to solve no matter how hard you try.

Turning around, he found that Kagome and others were still reading the gossip about the Melomag Kingdom on the Internet, and Ye Menqiu suddenly had an idea.

Come to think of it, when I wanted to go back a month ago, Rimuru took over the trouble and I didn’t go back.

But this time, it’s a good opportunity to go back.

At present, there are three forces under his control.

The Inuyasha world is in ruins and also short of people, so there is no need to bring people over from there.

But the modern world of the Undead King is a dystopian society, and what he lacks the least is talent.

Although it is extremely difficult to receive an education due to the lack of materials, being born in such a world, even if one only has an elementary school education, is a rare talent in this world.

Moreover, the ecological environment over there has collapsed and the earth is full of radiation, but this side is full of vitality, the environment is elegant and extremely attractive.

"Kagome, do you want to go back with me?"

"Going back to Higurashi Shrine?" Kagome looked expectant.

"No, go back to Eco City."

Hearing this, Kagome instantly lost interest.

"Forget it, go back by yourself. With my age and status, I won't be able to recruit anyone even if I hold a job fair."

"I didn't want you to be in charge of recruitment." Ye Men smiled unconsciously, "The kingdom's management talent gap is too big. Military talents can be replaced by monsters in the Yin Yang School, but management talents cannot be replaced."

"Moreover, after we kill the Northern Demon King and occupy the Demon King's Territory, the talent gap will further increase."

"My initial estimate is that there must be at least 100,000 people with good character and good knowledge."

"So, I plan to assign someone to be in charge of this matter. Take the artifact that can open a portal to any place you've been to, and bring people over from there every once in a while."

"Bring as many people as you need."

"In this way, the kingdom's development will not be interrupted by a lack of talent."

Kagome looked around thoughtfully.

"It's a good idea, but who will be in charge?"

Kikyo? It's obvious that she would not be willing to take on such a trivial job.

Yuuluo is younger than me, and this is not how child laborers are exploited.

Not to mention the rest of the people, none of them are the type who like to work.

"That's true." Ye Men couldn't help but fall into deep thought, "This matter is very important and complicated. It's best to find someone with a strong sense of responsibility."

After going through all the people he knew in his mind, Ye Men suddenly had a figure appear in his mind.

Most monsters like to fight and kill, and cannot do this kind of delicate work.

And those monsters who have management skills and are calm and peaceful are currently in important positions.

Furthermore, the artifact that opens the portal to another world cannot be used whenever you want.

This is not a one-time world-class prop. As a divine weapon, it requires a huge amount of magic power. To cross the world, even more magic power is needed.

Thinking of this, Ye Men stood up and began to summon demons using his own magic power.

Since we have already fleeced Rimuru a lot, it won’t matter if we fleece him again. This time, we will summon the Original Black to be in charge of this matter.

The next moment, a magic circle appeared out of thin air, and a strange-looking demon appeared before his eyes.

"Isn't it? That's right, drawing cards is never a one-time or two-time thing, unless you go both ways."

Send back the summoned demon and start summoning again.

The magic power output continued to increase for more than ten times, and then a black-haired young man in a tuxedo appeared on the grass.

"This is not a temporary summons. I need you to help me for a long time. Is that okay?"

"It's an honor to serve you." The black-haired young man bowed slightly.

"Then your name from now on will be Diablo."

Feeling that one third of the magic power in his body was drained away in an instant, Ye Men couldn't help but look at him carefully.

As expected, he is the original black and is undoubtedly one of the top powers in this world.

"Let me explain what you need to do. Since the Kingdom of Elfriden is expanding too fast, there is a huge shortage of talent. I plan to bring people over from another world... From now on, you will be in charge of this work for a long time."

"no problem."

The Original Black was fanatical in his heart. He felt that his efforts in slaughtering any demons that had a chance to be summoned were worth it. This summoning was exactly as he had expected. It was very interesting.

"Well, let's go. This artifact will allow you to go anywhere you've been, even if it's a different world. I'll take you there once, and from now on you can go back and forth on your own."

Yemen paused and turned to look at Kagome:

"I'll be back soon, it'll only take a few minutes."

"Go, go." Kagome waved her hand casually.

……

Compared to when Ye Men and others left, the ecological city inside and outside has changed greatly.

The area within the city has greatly expanded, the population has increased, the black haze in the sky outside has decreased a little, and some parts of the ground near the city have regained some vitality.

"A world where the environment has been severely damaged and the living space has been squeezed to the limit before we try to make up for the loss? Humans are really stupid creatures."

"Haha... you are right about everything." Ye Men smiled. "This world lacks everything, but it lacks knowledgeable, hard-working people. Your mission is to bring the people from this world to the Kingdom of Elfriden and let them integrate into their new life as quickly as possible."

"This is the Lord's mercy to them. I think anyone with a brain would not miss this opportunity."

"Come on, I'll take you to find Boya, and you'll be responsible for contacting him afterwards."

Ye Men sensed where Yuan Boya was, opened the portal, and instantly arrived at the office.

"You're here, Qingming." Seeing that it was Yemen, Minamoto Boya breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, I'm extremely short of people. You and Diablo can hold a few job fairs and send more people over. After that, this will be a long-term project."

"No problem." Yuan Boya nodded slightly.

At the same time, he fell into deep thought.

If a large number of people disappeared in a city, it would be difficult to explain and might lead people to suspect that it was a massacre or biological experiment.

After all, people are never reluctant to make malicious speculations about unknown things.

However, if the main population is placed outside the city and mixed with a small number of elites from the city, some of the risks will be reduced.

If recruitment is dispersed across multiple cities, the risk will be further reduced.

"Mr. Boya, I am Diablo. Please give me your guidance."

With just one glance, Original Black understood everything.

This man named Boya looks exactly like the master at this moment, and is obviously a substitute.

And to be able to serve as a stand-in, the level of trust between the two parties must be very high.

Fortunately, I have accepted such an important task, and there is a chance for me to catch up and advance.

……

Two days later, the first batch of talents recruited by Diablo from the Overlord real world were brought to the Kingdom of Elfriden.

"Ms. Shiraori, the first batch consists of 4325 people in total, of which 552 have elementary school education, 114 have junior high school education, 8 have high school education, 1 have college education, and has a master's degree.

The people selected this time are all young people under the age of 35, married, and both husband and wife have certain work experience and can all go directly to work.

As for the children in the family, they are not included in the 5,000."

Very good!

Listening to Diavolo's explanation, Baizhi's face lit up with joy and he subconsciously looked at Yemen beside him.

The president finally did something serious.

These people brought from their hometowns, even if they are just elementary school graduates, can be considered talents compared to the natives.

I've been so busy these past few days that I almost forgot what sleep feels like.
