Chapter Forty-Nine: The Domination Realm!

(I slept all day today and feel like I've regained a lot of energy.) )

Overseas archipelago, Modo City.

The fortified walls had been re-strengthened, and the gates of Modo had to be re-enlarged due to the increasing number of inhabitants, with two side gates opening next to the main gate. Today, Modo City is also a large city with a population of more than 50,000, but this population calculation is different from other cities. There are less than 30,000 recorded citizens in Modo City, of which about 20,000 are half-elves and about 10,000 are human citizens, who are mainly pirates, merchants, and armies.

At this time.

At the gate of Modo City, a large number of people have gathered, and even if there is a security team to maintain order, it still makes the scene a little chaotic. Now the city of Mordor has its own order, and the people have gradually adapted and assimilated into the daily life here. Naturally, it was an important thing to be able to attract so many people to come here, because in addition to the residents of Modo City, there were also merchants from Modo Port.

Notices are posted on the walls.

Someone next to him was responsible for explaining, because there are not many literate people after all, but most of the businessmen can understand it, and many businessmen are already shining with their eyes when they see the back.

The first notice was about the census.

The first census will be conducted in the city, and all those who have citizenship will be registered, and those who have contributed enough to the city will be given the title of honorary citizen, priority to the various welfare and education resources of the city, and the ability to run for office in the city. The census has a wide range of scopes, including half-elves, humans, indigenous slaves, and more. The commoners will also be counted this time, which will be beneficial to the future management of Modo City.

The second notice is about colonial reclamation.

As mentioned earlier, the city of Mordor was under Sauron's arrangement. The natives of the vicinity were being cleared, and now Sauron had achieved some success and occupied a lot of land near the city of Modo.

Sauron has a lot going on right now.

Although Modo City has its own operating system, it is still not enough to support further colonization and reclamation, whether it is population or resources, it is difficult for Modo City to organize large-scale expansion in a short period of time. Moreover, Sauron's focus is on the city of Mordor itself. Instead of blindly expanding the territory, it is better to climb more technology trees in your own nest, and improve a series of measures such as agricultural development, canal irrigation, etc. According to Sauron's thoughts. The agriculture of Modo City must be the kind of big farm, more than a hundred years ahead of the world.

But.

The land that has been occupied cannot be wasted, and instead of leaving it there to grow grass, it is better to take it out for colonization and reclamation.

The decree now issued by the city of Modo. It's at an outrageously low price. Lease these lands to other people, and they will receive the resources and protection of Modo City, and they will only need one silver del to lease one acre of land, and if these lands are cultivated for ten years, then these people will get permanent tenure, and at the end of the year, they will be able to get the title deed at the town hall. All the tools of colonial reclamation can be purchased and rented from Modo City, and the cost is completely cost price, and even Modo City is still shipping backwards.

Any colonist can get the protection of Modo City. After all, overseas islands are still a bit dangerous.

It can be said that this time the colonization plan, except for the population, Modo City will not be facilitated. Everything can be tilted from the resources of Modo City.

Even if you don't have any money!

As long as you have enough contributions to the city of Modo, in a word, you are willing to colonize and open up the wasteland, you can immediately rent land, tools, resources from the city of Modo, and even the money can be owed in advance or borrowed at very low interest.

Of course.

This discount is only available to those who have contributed enough to the city, such as those who have made meritorious service in battle.

Land reclamation is exempt from tax for one year.

In the next three years, only half of the tax was required, and after the calculations of the merchants, if a person had more than 100 contribution points in Modo City, then he only needed 10 Jindler to sit on about 100 acres of land.

10 Kindler can be exchanged for a small landowner.

Although this may require their own development, the city of Mordor can provide them with the tools and resources to deploy troops to protect their security, and all they need is the initial investment, and then manage their land for ten years.

Businessmen smell a huge business opportunity.

For these businessmen who can go overseas, one or two hundred Kindler is nothing at all, they only need to invest about 100 Kindler to get more than 1,000 acres of land, and after ten years, these lands will be completely their own, even if they count all kinds of reclamation investments, as well as the various resources that need to be paid in the first two years, they can also realize this huge profit.

But.

This policy is only open to the citizens of Modo City, and people who do not have the citizenship of Modo City cannot enjoy all this.

However, there are policies and countermeasures, and the merchants have tried to get the citizenship of Modo City, and some merchant guilds on the south coast even directly donate money to Modo City in exchange for contributions, and then jointly acquire more than 1,000 hectares of land in one go. The other small merchants had no choice but to change their ways to get a piece of the pie and sign a contract with the citizens of Modo City, and they used their capital to invest in sharing profits with the contractor, striving to get enough benefits in this big event in Modo City.

The whole city of Modo was boiling.

Even the news was transmitted to the south coast in a very short time, and even the Temple of Fortune felt moved, and secretly mobilized the chamber of commerce under its control to take over more than 10,000 hectares of land in this colonization plan of Modo City.

………………

The Castle Lord's Mansion.

Sauron sat at his desk and looked at the map in front of him, next to it was a thick stack of papers, with many seals on them, small land applications could be handed over to the town hall, but the number exceeded a certain size, in order to prevent other forces from taking too deep roots in the vicinity of Modo City, Sauron needed to approve it personally.

The common good can tie the others to Sauron's chariot.

In front of Sauron, in the center of the map is the city of Modo, marked with three red dots near the city of Modo, which is the first batch of reclaimed colonial land, covering an area of more than 300 square kilometers, and plans to develop into three medium-sized towns around the city of Modo. The second phase of the project will be further expanded, and eventually twelve towns will be built around the city of Modo.

The whole program.

Modo City is losing money, just the first batch of investment, Modo City has lost nearly 3,000 Jindler, if it weren't for the merchants on the south coast desperately trying to squeeze in and bring more than 20,000 Jindler funds to Sauron, I'm afraid he needs to invest more resources now.

That's a money-losing scheme.

Except for the city itself, all the participants are beneficiaries, and as long as they can get the land, they can exchange it for huge profits in the future at a very small price.

With Sauron's god-level computing power, after the final statistics were completed, he came to a rough conclusion.

If this phase of the reclamation colonization plan is completed.

Modo City will lose about 150,000 Jindler, and the only source of revenue for Modo City during this period of time is the rather meager tax.

But!

This money-losing plan will also bring a huge benefit, that is, to attract a large number of people to come here, merchants will naturally find a way to operate after getting the land, such a large land must need to be managed by close people, there is no labor in the city of Modo to supply them, they have to spend money to hire labor from other places or buy slave work.

Now the land is wasteland.

It takes a lot of labor and tools to build a wasteland from scratch, and the city of Modo will provide the tools to reclaim it, but the rest still needs to be prepared by the people themselves.

Everything requires input, and the most important input is population.

Lord Sauron's creditworthiness is well-known all over the world, and although some merchants have calculated and realized that Modo City has been losing money, they have finally resisted the temptation to believe Sauron's promise.

The whole plan was to lose money in exchange for development, and Sauron directly used the method of throwing money in exchange for the second large-scale expansion of Modo City.

Only this time.

He distributed the benefits to the common people, and the citizens of the city of Modo were able to get a piece of the pie, while the interests of the city itself, as well as the rich land around it, remained firmly in his own hands.

This is an opportunity.

It is also a signal released to the outside world, and Modo City, which is close to saturation in its own expansion, has attracted the attention of countless people in an instant.

The city of Modo is equivalent to a small kingdom in its own right.

And the population here is the population of Sauron, and for a god, the population is definitely not too much.

………………

It's also this day.

After Sauron had arranged all the plans, a row of data unexpectedly appeared in front of him:

"Law comprehension! ……”

"Godhead Power Transformation! …… You have obtained some information about the Domination Realm! ……”

"Empowerment improvement! ……”

"You have automatically comprehended a new realm - [Domination]! ......" (To be continued......)
