Three days later, the castle on the red clay slopes was added with a new member.

Rose and Frank and their clansmen made their home in the castle, and there were one hundred and sixty-five beemen, of whom sixty were usable archers, and the rest were women and children. There are relatively few butterfly people, including Rose, there are only ninety-three.

There were not many things in the butterfly man and the bee man, but there were also a lot of them, each carrying their daily belongings, pots and pans, mattresses, etc., and a butterfly man girl came over and said to Xia Yi, "Hello, Lord Lord. ”

"Welcome, Shirya." Xia Yi said heartily.

"Do you remember my name......"

Shirleya's face was ruddy, she didn't expect the lord to remember her, and bowed her head to take her leave, she believed that the butterfly people would live a better life because they followed a kind lord.

Shay specially organized a banquet for them, and by the way, a formal meeting was held in Shay's bedroom.

"First of all, I am very grateful to Captain Shabit for the food cooked by the halflings, so that we can hold this feast." Xia Yi sat very formally at one end of the long table, flanked by representatives of various races, so to speak, people of some status.

"You're welcome, my mistress." Patriarch Shabit held up a glass of wine and greeted Chailly.

Chailly couldn't find fault with the halfling's cooking, and there was fruit salad, dessert after dinner, shiny bird meat, meat steak, and even appetizing consommé prepared with great care, and there was a lot of fruit, from rum and other spirits for men, to blackcurrant wine, and even juice and milk.

"We welcome our new members, and allow me to introduce them to the last two Zergs, Lady Rose, the Patriarch of the Hundred Curtain Butterfly People, and Frank, the Bee Chief. In the future, we will also be a member of the Red Clay Plateau, and I believe that we will be able to get along very happily. ”

Everyone present applauded enthusiastically, especially the two guys, Blitz and Pomlibe, who had already begun to whistle at Madame Butterfly, a little too enthusiastic.

"Thank you very much, it's been a pleasure to work with all of you." Rose and Frank stood up and bowed happily. Frank is not good at words, and follows the dignified Madame Butterfly speech.

Patriarch Shabit winked at Frank and said, "Patriarch Frank, I heard that beemen have a unique experience in brewing honey, and we halflings are very interested in this, we should move around more in the future and communicate, I am Shabit." ”

"Yes, Patriarch Shabit."

Finish the welcome ceremony. Xia Yi took out a piece of parchment and said: "Today's banquet is about the future of the Red Clay Plateau, first of all, I will first describe it in a general way, ahem, the target of the Red Clay Plateau will not be a village in seclusion in the Danube, whether it is a halfling or a Zerg. You also know the disadvantages of being isolated. ”

Patriarch Shabit was the first to speak. Immediately said: "Mistress, you mean to build a country? ”

"A city-state, to be exact, I do not wish to create a imprisoned state, but an independent territory, where we issue regulations and laws, and we govern them. The Red Clay Heights will be a true 'City of Chaos', where any race can gain a foothold, but must be governed by us. ”

Everyone present was stunned, even if it was a small city-state, it was not so easy.

For example, humans and orcs. Both originally developed from villages to kingdoms, with elves settling in the forests and dwarves making their homes in the hilly areas......

The old drunkard was already drunk, and he only said one sentence and then buried his head in his wine: "Bold enough girl." ”

"If it's a city-state, the first thing we should consider should be settled people, each race has its own country, if we are a mixed city-state, we must first attract them to settle down, with all due respect, there is nothing attractive about the red clay slopes, even mercenaries are not willing to come ......"

This was the idea of the Shabit patriarch, who had recently begun to read and study the situation of other races.

"You're right, but our red clay slopes are by no means barren. Patriarch Shabit, do you know how the delicacies of halflings are praised in the human realm? If he could get a halfling cook, the human king would rather fire all the cooks. "Shay is not exaggerating.

Hearing this, Patriarch Shabit straightened his body.

"Also, let's not ignore the resources of the Danube itself, the city of chaos is the city of chaos because it is the entrance to the best frozen forest, the circulation of mercenaries makes it prosperous, and our Danube has something unique."

Mundo chewed a piece of chicken thigh, and he had the most say in the city of chaos: "There are no magical beasts in the Danube, no fertile land, and no dwarven minerals......"

"I thought so the other day." "Before that Count Carreno came, I thought the Danube was one of the most inhospitable places on the mainland, but he opened a door for us. ”

Madame Butterfly pondered for a moment and asked, "You mean the sea?" ”

"That's right!" Xia Yi said happily, "The Danube is on the verge of the sea, as far as I know, the Sea Tribes have never had any contact with the mainland, even a count robbed a Sea Tribesman village, there are so many pearl agate, and the resources of the seabed, how much more?" It can be said that it is inexhaustible, and the added value will definitely not be less than that of Warcraft. ”

"There are indeed a lot of resources on the seabed, and they can also attract caravans of various races to trade, and the caravan must be escorted by a mercenary group, this is a chain, it is very good to pay attention, the problem is, we can't be like Count Carreno, to rob the Sea Clan, it's too risky, after a long time, the Sea Clan will have precautions, not for long."

Mondo thought Shay was a bit whimsical.

"Can't we do it peacefully?" Madame Butterfly, who likes peace, said, "Like cooperation? ”

"Aha! Working with the Sea Clans? The old drunkard jumped up and said, "You don't know the ambitions of the Daohai people, they even want to annex the mainland, and cooperation is impossible!" ”

Pomribey took a sip of the spirit, his tongue sticking out, and he kept punching Britz.

"Boss, it's better to rob quickly! We can help you rob the coastal Sea Tribes of their treasures! Shaking his head, he said in a loud voice that violent people always like to solve everything in a violent way, and Blitz has the same idea.

Xia Yi felt that it was a mistake to let these brainless people participate in the meeting, and wanted to pick up something and throw it over, but the food was reluctant, the plate was easy to break, and the knife and fork were afraid of poking the kobold to death, so he finally grabbed the pichu beast on the table that was gnawing on a piece of cheese and writhed his little buttocks, and smashed it over.

The Pichu Beast didn't know what was going on, so he grabbed Pomlibe's ear so that it didn't fall, and sat on Pomlibe's head, grinning at Xia Yi.

"It's really difficult to work with the Sea Clan, it's just an assumption, but we don't have a little guy from the Kraken here, we might be able to open the window from him, I mean, maybe we can avoid the violent and irascible Sea Clan, and start with the docile Sea Clan, such as the Kraken and the Mussel People."

"That's a great idea." The old drunkard smacked his lips and said, "Then who is going to negotiate with the Kraken?" ”

Pomlibe and Britz shrunk their necks at the same time, and the Shabit patriarch also buried his head, only his food in his eyes, and the others didn't care, but Xia Yi knew that none of them were the material for this.

"I'll run it myself, the problem now is that I can't swim, and I don't know where the village of the Siren Clan is......" Xia Yi raised his forehead, this is indeed a long way, "Let's not talk about the Kraken Clan, what other resources do you think there are on the Red Clay Plateau?" ”

Frank said solemnly: "We bee people are the most perfect race on the continent to make bows and arrows, and this point cannot be compared to even the elven race. ”

"Yes, it can be regarded as a financial revenue, and besides, the consumption of mercenaries and armies, bows and arrows must be replenished, which is endless." Shay affirmed.

Madame Butterfly smuttered for a moment, and then finally said weakly: "The artwork of our butterfly people in the hundred scenes is very good, including floral necklaces, rings, etc., and they are very good at it. ”

Perhaps, this is an inconspicuous feature, but Xia Yi's eyes lit up, she originally wanted to trade agate and other products from the Sea Clan, and then sell them to merchants of various tribes at a high price, but if pearls and other items are made into art ornaments, the difference in price will be widened, and the profit will more than double!

In addition, the section on art can also enrich the life of the Laterite Plateau, which Xia Yi hopes will be a center of commercial exchange, and hopes that more and more people will settle here and become a cultural capital.

At the end of the table, there are representatives of the goblins, the chief's son Odin and the goblin wizard Old Conca, Conca has always been very hesitant, and the people sitting at the table are all representatives of the race with status, he doesn't even know what he is doing here, in fact, it was specially arranged by Xia Yi, Ou Ding is still young anyway, he needs Conca's assistance.

"Master, I suppose that if I can subdue my tribe as soon as possible, it will bring some labor to the red clay slopes, you know, goblins are very good for some small work, we can even string a louse out of hair, I know, you are short of manpower now......"

Odin couldn't help but lower his head as he spoke, while the others laughed loudly, they didn't think the goblins could do anything.

"Odin, you're right, remember, no race needs to be presumptuous, I can give you the right to choose the number you need from among my warriors, but on the condition that within ten days, you will bring all the goblins of your tribe to the Red Clay Plateau, and I will use whatever method you use."

Odin looked up, tears glistening in his eyes, he knew very well that goblins had a low status, and no one except their master felt that goblins were valuable, only her...... (To be continued......)
