Chapter 182: The City of Freedom

Back on the clay slopes, Chailly welcomes an unexpected person.

When she walked into the castle, it was not as deserted as it had been, the inhabitants of the Red Clay Plateau had moved to the second floor or above, and the first floor was inhabited by some people with status or strength from all over the world, and the reward of the Red Soil Slope was to be able to settle down on the first floor of the castle, in fact, it was large enough to be used as a market.

When Xia Yi ran to the second floor, she saw that almost all the women on the red clay slope were sitting on the ground, holding a bronze mirror in their hands, and even the butterfly patriarch Rose was here!

"What happened? What are the ceremonies being held? ”

Xia Yi asked in wonder, and Rose ran over and said with great interest, "Oh, hostess, you're finally back!" We're learning how to make ourselves more attractive. ”

I saw that at the front of the hall, there was a woman demonstrating: "That's right, as long as you gently outline the corners of your eyes, you can make your eyes more charming, okay, the eyeshadow part is here, today's class is over, if you don't understand, you can come and ask me." ”

On the red clay slopes, except for Xia Yi, it is estimated that she is the only one who can make all women obedient, she waved at Xia Yi and said, "Little skeleton!" You're finally back, and I'm getting impatient. ”

This woman is actually the long-lost Elena, the mad woman who has stuffed the heart of the druid in her soul.

"Elena......

In the past, Xia Yi, who was weak, couldn't see through Elena's strength, but now, she still can't see through, just like facing a zombie king, Xia Yi can be sure that she is at least above the Holy Domain, and only above the Holy Domain, beating a group of acolytes to the point that she has no power to fight back, and only she dares to go to the Bright Sect to kill people.

Shay didn't know much about her. Now she at least knew that she wasn't a Terran.

"It's me, I'm here to ask for a debt, little skeleton, you won't forget your promise!" Elena muttered in displeasure, "Merry's guy." I'll have to wait until you come back to activate the teleportation array, and I can't wait to see what the legendary Forsaken Lands looks like. ”

Xia Yi's eyes lit up, and she got at least two pieces of good news.

The first is that Old Man Merlin has repaired the teleportation array, and the other is that Elena at least did not show any hostility, they can be regarded as friends, the third powerhouse above the Holy Realm on the Red Clay Slope.

Zombie Monarch, Merry, Elena. Well, of course, there is also Blue Falco, but the magic he gave himself has not yet been unraveled, and the current Blue Falco is not much different from ordinary toads.

"Of course not, we'll be on our way soon! But before that, I'll deal with those headaches. ”

Shay noticed the dreaded phantom she had captured from the temple. Actually obediently lying in Elena's arms, and looking at its appearance. It's trembling! You know, Xia Yi can't handle this little thing, it has always refused to give in, and now it is being played with by Elena like a cat.

Halfling Shabit hurried over, he was the steward of the castle, and every day was enough for him. When he heard the news of the hostess's return, he hurried to report on his work.

"Oh, my patriarch, you're getting better and better, and you can still run."

Patriarch Shabit has no nonsense. opened a notebook and said, "Mistress, you are finally back, I have something to discuss with you in detail."

"Okay, let's come to the conference room."

On the way to the conference room, Shay spotted several rooms that had been converted into entertainment lounges, where Britz was leading a few of his forest trolls drinking and punching, and next to them were two stout giants, no smaller than the forest trolls.

"Who are they?" Shay looked at the unfamiliar face.

"Coming with Miss Elena, they're good wrestlers, and even the forest trolls are their losers."

Xia Yi thought about it, these two people seemed to have seen her, in the tavern of Sin City, it was these two strong men running the hall. Judging from the news of Sin City, Elena did go to Sin City after killing the acolyte Arthur, and these two strong men and Elena had known each other for a long time.

"When did Miss Elena arrive?"

"A week ago, she claimed to be your good friend, and said she was a neighbor, so she stayed here, I wanted to refuse, but even the forest trolls were directly left behind, and you and the man are not there, but she has helped us a lot recently, and our castle was attacked the day before yesterday, and she took action."

"Under attack? Who is it? Did you catch it? ”

This is what Xia Yi is annoyed by, a new city-state will of course be controversial, her rivals certainly don't want to see the prosperity of the red clay slopes, secretly stumbling, but she didn't expect that someone would dare to attack blatantly.

"Miss Elena killed them, they are some dark rangers, hired by people, mainly for assassination missions, so we haven't found out who is behind them."

"Are there any casualties?"

"No, they were killed by Miss Elena as soon as they appeared, and they couldn't do anything."

Xia Yi was relieved, as long as there were no casualties, it was not a loss, the red soil slopes were still too loose, although there were patrols every day and night, and facilities such as watchtowers were already being built, but there were still loopholes.

"Speed up the construction of watchtowers and arrow towers, send more men to guard them at night, and register all caravans, mercenaries and individuals who enter and leave the red clay slopes. If you encounter an intruder again, you don't have to kill them, and you don't need to leave them alive. ”

Xia Yi said dryly, without paying the price of some blood, the red clay slopes will not be peaceful.

"Yes, but ...... In terms of registration, it may be a little difficult, you know, we don't have a wall, there is no way to manage the people who come in and out, and the number of people who move in and out can reach 100,000 people every day, even the registration books are not enough. ”

Shabit Patriarch said embarrassedly, Xia Yi sighed, it seems that infrastructure is the top priority, but Old Man Merlin has set up the teleportation array, she can summon the skeletons of the Forsaken Land to work, they will not be tired or hungry, the only thing to solve is that I am afraid it will cause a lot of panic.

After all, the existence of the undead is not very acceptable on the continent.

Shay pondered whether to make another movie about skeletons and change the perception of the races on the continent about the undead, at least not to cause a riot as it is now, and it would be more difficult to coexist with the races on the continent.

Xia Yi put down Lan Faco on his shoulder and said, "Meet your people, but beware of them eating you as a snack." ”

When he arrived at the conference room, the Shabit patriarch sketched with a quill for a while, and he removed a lot of semi-important things, because he could handle it himself, so he didn't have to trouble the lord.

"Mistress, now there are one hundred and fifty-three chambers of commerce on the mainland that have transactions with the Red Clay Plateau, of which one hundred and forty-nine have signed long-term contracts, and there are another thousand and four hundred independent families, fifty percent of which are from the human realm, the other part is from the orc kingdom, and the elves, barbarians, dwarves, etc., add up to ten percent, mainly because of inconvenient transportation."

"Have our films started to be distributed in these countries?" Movies are undoubtedly the most important means of publicity.

"Yes, there has been a noticeable increase in the number of races coming to the Red Clay Heights this month, because the previous decree, although there was a lot of friction, did not break out too much fighting."

The races were not at peace in the first place, which was expected by Charity.

"Speaking of trade, I have brought back two ships this time, both of them are the best ships in the goblins, and you have to find a way to hire and train some craftsmen to build more ships, and the day of navigation from the Danube and the sea is not far off, but the craftsmanship of the craftsmen should not flow out, and this must be done well."

"Don't worry about this." Patriarch Shabit flipped through the account book and said, "Our business in the human kingdom has begun to make a profit, the hobbit you chose is a good hand at doing business, he is already familiar with various nobles in the royal capital, the profit of the shop last month was 1.4 million gold coins, more than two million a month from the movie, two million have been put into storage, and some are left in the human kingdom as working capital." ”

Xia Yi's eyes were already glittering with golden coins, and he asked, "Then how many gold coins do we have in our treasury now?" ”

"Hmm...... I calculated, it should be 40,000 yuan, and we owe a lot of wages and foreign debts this month, and the construction of a city is almost a gap that cannot be filled, and it is good to be able to maintain it. ”

"Forty thousand?"

This amount disappointed Xia Yi for a while, and the hard-earned money was spent without even a chance, and the construction of the red clay slope was swallowing money at any time, so that the wages and raw materials were a terrifying amount.

"Okay, you prepare daily necessities, food and clothing, etc., we have officially traded with the Kraken Clan, and this will be managed by you in the future, I believe that the profit will not be less."

"That's good news."

Patriarch Shabit had a bitter face, he had to be busy again, although he had already chosen ten assistants among the halflings to take care of it, but he was still anxious.

"That...... Mistress, I'm wondering, should I have a holiday, ahem, I'm not lazy......" Patriarch Shabit was a little nostalgic for his laid-back life before, but if he chose to, he would still do it like now, although he was busy, but he didn't have to worry about the racial crisis that could happen at any time in the frozen forest.

"Of course, you can have a day off every week, and the same goes for Rose Frank Odding."

Xia Yi felt a little sorry for the Shabit patriarch, the other halflings would be paid for their work, and the few high-ranking people were priceless and had no holidays, but everything they needed was provided by the Red Clay Plateau, and they didn't need any personal money at all.

"Thank you, merciful mistress......" said Shabit Patriarch dancing with joy. (To be continued......)
