Chapter 593: Foreign Guests
"Oh, were you originally in the Sect of Salos? No wonder so, your Salos is very fluent, I have been to the capital of the Church, they call it the Holy Capital, it is indeed magnificent and gorgeous, it is indeed one of the ten major cities in our world, and my hometown of Lidat Oasis City is among them, they are the pearls of civilization, but it is a pity that ........"
Lu Ping'an saw these distinguished guests in the living room of the city government.
Unlike the expected one or two people, it was a group of visitors from outside the country, with "VIPs", guards, and experts.
The local accompaniment is not a big cat or a kitten, but as the deputy secretary of the high-level of the municipal government and the deputy director of the management department of the alien management bureau...... It can be said that the local government and the occult management department have sent cadres and officials with real power, and the sincerity is quite sufficient.
But before Lu Ping'an came, the scene was still a little embarrassing.
There is no translation in the other language, and for some reason, these foreign guests do not receive translation support from the state government, and only rely on the "knowers" of the supernatural system to forcibly translate.
Maybe language communication is fine, but it is natural to mislead one sentence in three sentences, and various deviations from local customs and common sense make communication extremely difficult.
There were no diplomatic disputes or hostilities, just slow and effective hard communication on both sides, with patience and sincerity.
"Tsk, this is the shelf of the royal family, poor Miss Yaxi, maybe she will be very envious." Lu Ping'an sat in the lower seat, helping to translate, while slandering in his heart.
Taking the initiative in conversation was a graceful scaly man with slightly dark skin, and the six rings on his fingers all had vague fluctuations in supernatural powers.
Prince Nantes Nibu, who now has a local name, Nanliuzhi, was also the chief officer of this expedition.
He brought more than 20 people, including his entourage, servants, experts, and bodyguards, to inspect the situation.
And unlike a down-and-out royal family like Yaxi, he is from another continent and has a "general".
“...... As you can see, your world is very peaceful. It's really enviable. ”
"No, just as your world has reached the last long night, there is a city that never sleeps, and our city is always in a relatively stable state, and the war zone outside the city is another matter......"
"I see, is this the root cause of the 'dragon smell' in you?"
"Dragon? Oh, can you feel that too......"
The one who "chatted happily" with Lu Ping'an was an armored warrior who was a little backward in the times, and he was introduced as "General Jiang", and he was the same as the Benen knight that Lu Ping'an saw before, and he was a scaly atavist.
It's just that compared with the Benn knight who is like an erect lizard, this Jiang is more like an upright dragon.
He sat there like a small black dragon, with a faint lightning current on his back, and even more flames and thunder flickering among the two children.
"Rule-level?"
"Well, rule-level." The big cat gave the certainty.
There is a rule-level elder to follow, and this is the card of the real royal family.
The Desert Kingdom of Kelai is the same race of the Phosphorus tribe as the Sect, but compared to their counterparts in the Sect, their skin is surging reddish-brown, and their hair color is mostly red and black.
This kingdom is considered to be in the middle of the first-tier kingdoms in the Silent Mountain World...... But unlike the Cult Nation that fell down and directly led to an avalanche, they cared about the face of the powerful kingdom at the greatest level, and also made full preparations for the end of the world.
The three old gods and the two new gods are the answers they took out as a mainland power.
But even so, it is still impossible to take all the people with them....... They prepared twenty years in advance and ended up taking with them nearly a million people.
This is for a superpower with a population of at least hundreds of millions, a survivor of the million-level who is in the top 10 in the world? Lu Ping'an didn't want to ask what was going on.
Judging from the information obtained from my side, the country, which already has a strong hierarchy, has carried out a cruel and secret "selection (points) mechanism", and the last survivors, if not the backbone of civilization and the elite of a hundred battles, at least, can be called "easy to use" at various levels.
I heard that there are concessionaires who have carried out a "scoring mechanism" for people, and most of the people, until the last moment, do not even know that they have been scored.
Sounds like a lot of work? But as long as you consider that nine out of nine people are unlikely to get boarding points, in fact, it is enough to score the "talents" who are likely to meet the requirements.
Lu Ping'an thought with his knees, and he was sure that there must be drawbacks, fraud, and all kinds of unfairness at all...... But as a result, it succeeded, and the kingdom's structure and civilization were preserved to the greatest extent.
Is this correct? Judging from the results, it seems that by selecting elites from all walks of life, the mechanics and civilization of the kingdom have been preserved to the greatest extent, and a million high-quality people are enough to rebuild civilization.
“...... The struggle of civilization in its last moments is not something that I alone can evaluate. ”
Lu Ping'an looked at Prince Nanliuzhi who was whispering with an official in Dongguo dialect, who was not so proficient in Dongguo dialect, and the information he just got was that there were actually more than 300 people in the royal family, and less than 50 were rated "qualified" in the end, and only seven of the twenty-seven direct princes of this generation survived.
Lu Ping'an looked at the Dragonborn General in front of him, thoughtfully, he was probably the first to score.
Jiang Hei, a simple and crude new name, is a former general in the country...... Lu Ping'an couldn't estimate his strength, but just by getting up close, Lu Ping'an's instinct told him that he would definitely be seconded once the war started.
"You look young? It shouldn't be more than thirty years old, so this is a challenge to the dragon species? How many years have you been a transcendent? "This elder is quite easy to speak, after completing the communication with the local high-level, he still has time to pull Lu Ping'an to chat.
Lu Ping'an is already a third-order, and there are some things that can't be hidden, especially after just eating the dragon meat dish and being breathed by the stone dragon, the dragon aura on his body is so strong that the dragon descendants can't ignore it at all.
As soon as he entered the room, he attracted the attention of the foreign guests, and no one regarded him as a simple "translator" at all.
"I'm sixteen years old, and I'm exposed to supernatural powers..... Less than half a year. ”
At this moment, it was this dragonborn who also showed a look of surprise.
"You're like this, it's a little different from our information, are you earth races, growing up so fast....."
"No, I'm a little special, but there should be many more faster than me."
Jiang Hei touched the dragon whisker on his chin and didn't ask, among the information he obtained, the growth of ordinary transcendents on the earth should not be so fast.
After the break (private communication), the formal negotiations began again, and Lu Ping'an, as an interpreter, also understood more and more the intentions of these foreign guests.
It turned out that the ark of the five gods did not go to one place as planned in the end, and two of them came to Earth, bringing about 300,000 elite people...... Whether this is a plan to divide the dishes into several more baskets, or whether it is an internal disagreement after departure, it is difficult to say.
More than 300,000 outsiders are a bit outrageous for a city, so Dongguo actually has a similar corresponding system, and the "ethnic group" of outsiders cannot exceed 50,000, and they cannot settle in cities and towns below the prefecture-level city...... The precautions in this are undisguised, otherwise there may really be a situation where the mountain is king.
In fact, this is also stepping on the other party's psychological bottom line, if you really want the other party to break it into parts and absorb it all, the other party may not be willing to accept the deployment, and if you agree, there will be many hidden dangers, especially at the inconvenient management level.
This segmentation of the lower levels is the most preferred in the current situation...... Of course, this system also changes several times from year to year, and maybe it will change again in a few months.
But now, under the new system, these immigrants must be forcibly divided into several communities of no more than 50,000 people, and can only settle in large cities with large populations...... From their point of view, even if they are divided, they naturally don't want to be too far away, so as not to have no one to take care of them if something happens.
Among them, the part of the ethnic group that served as the leader chose to enter the Changping Prefecture Mansion, and the remaining five communities were also preparing to settle in the big cities in Changping Prefecture.
"Forty or fifty thousand carefully selected high-quality immigrants, as well as the assets and skills they carry with them? Talk, everything can be talked about! ”
This is quite convincing for a second-tier city in Changping Prefecture like Gucheng.
As a translator, Lu Ping'an also became more aware of the plans of these foreign guests..... If you only look at the current performance, they did come with sincerity.
As a former super smelting kingdom, they plan to invest in setting up factories, preparing to try it in the jewelry industry, metallurgical industry, equipment manufacturing industry, and light industry industry, and the "forbidden items", "precious metals", and "exotic knowledge" they carry with them are enough to support the first batch of investment.
It will take time and luck, and it is unknown whether it will succeed, but from the beginning of trying to run the real industry, they intend to integrate into the world for a long time.
The idea of the high-level of the ancient city is very simple, no matter what you want to invest, it doesn't matter if it succeeds or not, but your high-quality assets and skilled population must stay in the ancient city.
