Chapter 17 When the construction of the territory is in progress
"Tents, spatulas, huh...... There are also tea sets. These don't seem to be enough, so you need to buy more. Lavis wore a pair of eyes, sat under the oil lamp, one hand dragged his cheeks, and the other hand shook the quill and meditated on a parchment scroll, under the background of the alchemy glasses, a quiet girl's temperament was immediately highlighted in Lavis, but when Acoste heard the little girl talking to herself, the half-elf instantly calmed down.
"I said that we are going to open up territory, not to go to the wild for dinner and camping, why do you want so many meaningless things?" Acoste said to Lavis with his hands crossed, he now regretted leaving the statistics to Doris, the little girl did think everything, but the corresponding expenses were also doubled more than expected.
"But brother, we must provide workers with a favorable working environment, only in this way will those workers maximize their enthusiasm for work, this is what you taught me before." When Lavis heard Yacoste's objection, he couldn't help but pout and be a little unhappy, he worked so hard to count the materials, and his brother, who didn't do anything and played soy sauce next to him, actually had the face to give opinions, it was just a shame.
"But we don't have any money." Acoste saw that he couldn't convince his sister by reasoning, so he had to spread his hands and put on a scoundrel look, you can't sell me to make money.
"Uh-uh-uh...!" The little girl was defeated by Acoste, and she was so angry that she only gritted her teeth, but Doris really didn't have much to do, the money was now on Acoste, and even if the little girl was depressed, it was impossible to conjure up a bunch of gold coins out of thin air.

Early the next morning, outside the City Gate Bridge at Baldur's Gate.
Many merchants and adventurers who entered and exited the city looked at a clearing in amazement, because for some unknown reason, there was a group of people standing there, and almost everyone dragged their families with their mouths, carrying a big bag on their backs, and the scene of moving en masse.
This frightened the unwitting adventurers and merchants, what were they going to do, could it be that something had happened to Baldur's Gate that had caused them to be forced to move? You must know that even the poor port area of Baldur's Gate is a place similar to paradise for the poor at the bottom, because in a big city like this, no matter how poor life is, it is much safer to live for a day than in a village in the wilderness, so to say that these poor people are a collective migration for no reason, those merchants and adventurers will not believe it anyway.
Just when some anxious people couldn't bear to step forward to ask, suddenly a long convoy came out of the Baldur's Gate, each cart was filled with a hill of supplies, and in the front of the cart sat a coachman driving two or three cattle to pull the cart, and next to the convoy was a group of well-equipped mercenaries, each vigilantly putting their hands on their weapons, and looking back and forth like wolves, believing that they would pull out their weapons and kill people at the slightest disturbance.
"Thank you, God, you see, there is really a lot of food and supplies!" Those poor people standing in the open space saw the convoy, and immediately burst into bursts of cheers, in fact, these poor people have no bottom in their hearts, even if Acoste promised them sufficient food and income yesterday, but these poor people who have been oppressed by the nobility will not believe Acoste's words at all, they secretly pray in their hearts that as long as they have two meals a day, they will be satisfied, but when they see so many supplies, their hearts suddenly have a bottom, and they also know that this nobleman is definitely not joking.
"Now, in my capacity as the Noble Pioneer Lord of the Temple of Justice, I announce that the operation is now officially begin!" Yacoste rode a handsome war horse in front of the poor people, in order to make enough of his own gimmick, to be able to suppress this group of people, Yacoste deliberately spent money to make a pure black wide cloak, with Yacoste's 18 points of charm, it really has a feeling that makes people shine, sometimes you must not underestimate these inconsequential things, it can play an irreplaceable role in some fields. Take charm as an example, even if a highly charismatic person doesn't use those charm skills, he can rely on his temperament to convince the people around him, not to mention Ling, a person who mainly relies on charm to eat with explosive attributes, and every move can make those poor people work for it.
"Let's go." With a wave of his hand, more than 800 people moved in the direction of Tukeling. This scene can be described as huge, in a sparsely populated world like the Faren Continent, the actions in the field are basically small-scale operations, and the war of a thousand people is already a large-scale war, except for the great war between those kingdoms, otherwise it is basically impossible to see such a magnificent scene in the wild.
With so many people, it is naturally impossible to rely on a few people to manage it, the half-elf has been training Louis and Yuenuo recently, in his thoughts, Yuenuo will be the head of the new forces in the future, and Louis is mainly responsible for managing internal affairs, these two people are now children, but what Yacoste values is their talent and potential, and now many things Yacoste has slowly let go of them to do, it is conceivable that for them who are not yet adults, many failures are obvious, But it is precisely because of their youth that they have a lot of capital to make mistakes.
As for the use of force, Acoste invited the Mercenary Regiment of the Warriors' Country led by his old acquaintance Axchel, and the other party and Acoste had some friendship, having dealt with each other in the previous mission to escort the caravan to Candlefort.
After yesterday's mobilization in the slums, Rakchel himself led people to find the half-elves, and the experienced mercenary leader guessed that Acoste must be expanding the territory after learning the news, which was a big business for their mercenary group. For Acoste, the land of warriors also belongs to a group of mercenaries who can be trusted a little, and the two parties hit it off and quickly held a cooperation.
"Alright, let's rest today, and we'll continue tomorrow..."The half-elf arrived on the shores of Karst Lake with the vast papleur, and announced that he had ordered the camp to be stationed. This was supposed to be a half-day journey, but under the drag of the number of people, it took Yacoste and them a day to get here.
Ling and the other team members began to act at this time, each of them was in charge of several trucks, and the equipment loaded on the trucks was distributed to those poor people according to the list, this detailed manifest was made by the little druid in an all-night time, it can be seen that Doris usually behaves unreliable, but at the critical moment it can still help everyone a lot.
"Let's be quiet, according to the family unit, each family will send one person to come over to get their own utensils, and where is the cooking class, hurry up and come over to get the tools and ingredients for cooking." Louis was standing on a large rock at this time, and began to command the slightly confused poor people, and Acoste smiled at the small and slightly green but very hard-working figure, it seemed that he had really found a talent......
