Chapter 828: Xinxing Province (2)
Aledia gave Ryan the territory of their four provinces, plus the annexation of Isopaton City, In the new provinces that have appeared in Proca City and so on, Ryan has a total of five provinces of land under their names, which is exactly the same as the number of strong people with domain-level combat power among Ryan, it is difficult not to think that this is Aledia's careful arrangement, but these territories are nominally granted to Ryan alone, and Aledia did not use any other tricks in this regard, which makes Ryan and them very satisfied, and an ally who cooperates wholeheartedly will make Ryan and others continue to maintain this alliance's desire.
After getting the territory of these five provinces, Ryan also became the largest lord of Aledia's territory in one fell swoop, but this largest only existed for less than a day, because the four provinces occupied from the Rakshasa demon were cut into small pieces and awarded to the dark elves who contributed to the Lanina legion on the day they got the authorization from Aledia, and Ryan only left a piece of land in each of the four provinces, and he was going to build a city on each of the four lands, and they would be managed by the Hrudian family, which was also Lane's reward for the work of the dragon from the mother of Maris and others。
In Ryan's overall layout, the land of the other world will only be handed over to the dark elves, it is already messy enough, it is better not to involve other allies, as for the netherworld, it is the colony that Ryan left to the Six Alliances, of course, such a large plane, the power of humans, elves and dwarves alone is not enough to develop, if the Naga Tityris, Celine Vena of the Sirens can also join in the governance of this plane if they are willing, as long as Ryan and they always maintain a strong deterrent, I believe that no matter who they are, they will obediently abide by the rules set by the powerhouses in these fields.
The five provinces soon got their own names, and the five of them each got the right to name one of the provinces, the province on the other side of Isopaton City was named "Star" by Lane, and the province to which the land they are standing now belongs was named "Elfa" by Faras, and Ryan knew that it was the scene where Faras first met him in the mercenary guild of the small city of Elfa to commemorate his first meeting with him in the mercenary guild of the small city of Elfa.
Ryan and they concentrated on the land of the Elfa Province, mainly for the city being built here, these four provinces are not bordering each other, when they first divided these lands, Aledia also consulted Ryan's opinion, if the land of the four provinces is to be merged together, due to the huge area, there must be many deserts and sand dunes in the territory, it is almost a productive place, very desolate, on the contrary, if it is separated, it can be divided into the area with the richest resources around, so Ryan agreed to Aledia's suggestion after consulting with Victor and others。
Since the four territories do not border, Ryan decided to concentrate on governing one of them first, and the location of the province of Elfa named after Faraz's proposal happened to be in the middle of all the newly occupied lands of the dark elves, so it was naturally necessary to build a large city here first, with the city there would be inhabitants, there would be caravans coming and going, and only then would the political, military, and commercial center of Elfa Province be formed, and only then would Ryan's dominion over the province be highlighted, and only then would there be the dimensional trade that Ryan planned to carry out.
At Cassano's time, Ryan already had experience in building cities, so this time he was personally in charge of the design of the new city, and with the strength of Ryan's Enchanted Grandmaster, coupled with the unimaginable resources obtained from the war and the abundance of slaves, everyone believed that this city called "New Hermida" would become the center of the new territory of the entire Dark Elves.
"The construction here needs to be accelerated, the distance between the Elfa Province and the Star Province is more than 10,000 kilometers, without these long-distance teleportation magic arrays, we can only rely on our own strength. Ryan said to the dark elf subordinates in front of him with his hands behind his back: "If there is any problem that cannot be solved, you can come to me directly, I hope to see a complete working magic array next month." ”
"Yes!" A large group of dark elf subordinates agreed in unison, and one of the dark elves hesitated slightly, but still spoke: "Mr. Ryan, there is a question...... You said you should give these slaves enough food and time to sleep, but then these damned lowly people may not be able to work in peace, and they will have more energy to escape!"
After listening to the words of this dark elf subordinate, Ryan was silent for a while, a few days ago he saw that the slaves who were busy on the construction site were very hard, so he asked these dark elf subordinates to treat them well, but it was obvious that the other world was not like Cassano, Ryan had no prejudice against these slaves in his heart, those dark elves would not think like this, and there were indeed several slaves who escaped last night, these slaves were all captured by the dark elves in this war, and they saw that the surrounding area did not seem to be very well defended, so they wanted to escape back to the territory ruled by the Rakshasa demon, As a result, he slipped out and was discovered by the dark elf ** master who released the "Magic Vision", and then the urgent duty team was arrested, which also became the reason why those dark elf subordinates opposed Ryan's proposal.
Ryan groaned slightly, and said: "Then tell these slaves that after this city is built, I will sign a decree to revoke their slave status, and they can live freely in the city they have built, under my protection, or they can leave on their own, and I believe that Princess Elisalie will help them." ”
"Ahh
Ryan saw that these dark elf subordinates seemed to want to object, so he preemptively said, "Don't panic, listen to me." The land under our feet originally belonged to the Rakshasa Demon, and now although it is occupied by us, it is not an overnight thing to completely rule here, and it is impossible for us to completely exclude the aborigines here, so we can only put the dark elves in the position of invaders forever, which is quite detrimental to future rule. If we want to eliminate such contradictions, we can't do it without respect, and it is very necessary to dismiss them as slaves. ”
Seeing Ryan say this, these dark elf subordinates did not speak, they are all smart people, otherwise they would not be qualified to be sent by Aledia to assist Ryan in his work, although Ryan's words did not immediately eliminate the doubts in their hearts, but they also successfully caused them to think. Ryan paused for a moment, then continued: "The vanquished must have the consciousness of the vanquished, and if they lose the war, they will naturally pay the price, so these people have lost their homes and wealth, and they want to build cities for us here as slaves. When the city is built, they have paid enough price for it, why should we continue to enslave them, we can give these people a chance to integrate into our territory, this is the intention of what I just said. ”
"But, however, I don't think these slaves will believe us, Mr. Lane, your orders are too merciful for them to believe. A Dark Elf subordinate plucked up the courage to say this.
"I never thought that thousands of years of hostility would be eliminated in just a few months!" Ryan responded in a stern manner, and then continued in a slightly softened tone: "If you don't take the first step, you will never reach the destination, what we have to do now is to release such a signal, it doesn't matter if they believe it or not, the important thing is that we must fulfill our promises thoroughly, time will tell." ”
"So, what if the slaves still escape?" said the Dark Elf subordinate.
"Are there any free people of a non-dark elf race around here?" Ryan asked rhetorically, although he didn't say it explicitly, he also made the meaning clear, all around this place are the small lords that Ryan has divided, and the land farther away is also completely owned by other dark elves, even if there are really slaves who escape, no matter which direction they go, they will have to pass through thousands of kilometers of dark elf domination, and it is almost impossible for some unarmed slaves to pass safely, not to mention the countless carnivorous monsters in the wild.
After seeing these people in front of him speechless by his own questions, Ryan still sighed secretly in his heart, after all, these guys were all sent by Aledia, and they are not of the same heart as themselves, and they will always look at the problem from the perspective of the dark elves when there is anything, which is not in the interests of Ryan, but Ryan really lacks such talents at hand now, because the distance is too far, the power of the mother of Maris can hardly support here, so Ryan can only use these guys in front of him to do things for himself.
Thinking of this, Ryan lost the desire to continue, and he spoke, "I repeat, I must give those slaves plenty of food, water, and sleep so that they can regain their energy and serve me. If you are sick or injured, you should also give active medical treatment, since I am the lord here, they are naturally my property, and I will never allow my wealth to be lost because of your abuse! Of course, if they still do not meet the conditions of such preferential treatment, and do not have the consciousness that a loser should have, and still want to continue to escape, then they will automatically lose the right to enjoy these things, and you can dispose of them at will. ”
