After listening to the story of the adventure in the Northland, the steward named Bourne told the story, and the group came to the bilge, and suddenly, the smell of strong body odor, dried herbs, and feces and urine came to their faces.

Xia Duo subconsciously drove the magic net to separate the smell, but the other two were not treated so well, although they could smell the fresh air close to Xia Duo, they didn't dare to get too close, just frowned, and Fleck even covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve.

“&#￥&！” Byrne yelled.

Everyone in the cabin immediately looked over, there was nervousness and anticipation, and the last beast-robed old man with a bone staff walked out of the crowd and came to Xia Duo and the others, awkwardly performing a color-resistant universal mage etiquette, and then a burst of unfamiliar language.

Realizing that it was not as easy as he thought to assimilate these Langas, at least the language barrier would be troublesome, so he looked at Byrne on the side and asked, "What did he say?" ”

"My lord, he said thank you to the merciful Lord of Shado, without your acceptance, their Kabun tribe would have been wiped out by the enemy, and he said that your lord you are the natural lord who gave them from the ancestral spirit."

“……”

Regardless of whether Bourne's translated words have been embellished and embellished, this sentence "the lord given by the ancestral spirit" really pokes Xia Duo, who is accustomed to the belief of the Lord of Radiance, and this ancestral spirit belief does not seem to be very harmonious with the ruler!

If everything is attributed to the ancestral spirits, then where are the lords placed?

Although Xia Duo was a little unhappy in his heart, he didn't show it on his face, but said calmly, "Welcome to join the Great Xia Territory, you will all be the subjects of the Great Xia Territory in the future, I hope you will abide by and obey the order of the territory." ”

After saying that, he said no more, and when Byrne had relayed his words, Xia Duo took another turn in the cabin, and took a general look at the number of the Bunting tribe.

Except for the leading shaman, there are no other old people, all of them are young and strong and children, among them there are about 40 adult women, only more than 30 adult men, and there are many children, at least 60 at a glance.

Pulling back more than 100 people at a time is not a small addition.

Back on deck, Chardo looked at President Fleck and made his request, "Find a few people who can speak the Langas language to accompany the ship to the Great Xia Territory."

"In addition, next year, in addition to going to Severton to transport people, the Langas can't be put down, I will provide the corresponding funds, I hope you can establish a stronghold in the territory of the Langas, and send people to the Great Xia Territory for a long time."

"It's okay for someone who can speak the Langasian language, Bourne will say it, and so will two other people on the ship, but build a stronghold—" Fleck's face was a little embarrassed, "My lord, although the Langas people are fighting each other, they are still very wary of the Chromians, and I'm worried that establishing a stronghold will hinder recruiting people." ”

Xia Duo thought for a moment and nodded, agreeing with Fleck's statement, but he asked again: "Can we cooperate with the big tribe over there to buy the slaves of the defeated tribe, we can pay for it with weapons, armor, and even magic scrolls." ”

"Your Excellency!" Fleck's mind changed, as if he was shocked by Xia Duo's words, but seeing Xia Duo's calm face, after all, he was in the slave business, and Fleck's mind also came alive:

"My lord, maybe we can support them in launching attacks on other tribes to get more people."

“……”

Xia Duo looked at Fleck carefully, and he had an idea! He did think about it himself, but he gave up thinking about it, he did need the population, but he and the Langas were not enemies yet, and they couldn't do it.

There is no impermeable wall in the sky, he can't always use those Langas people who have been defeated as slaves, who knows if there will be a great arcanist among those people in the future, isn't this asking for trouble for himself!

Acting above board and occupying righteousness is not just good-looking, but also has tangible and long-term benefits, and as a quasi-immortal, it is impossible for Xia Duo not to consider these.

Giving Fleck a warning look, he continued: "There is no need to do this, the Great Xia Leader is not a destroyer or a terminator, we are the savior, the protector, and the one who brings happiness and stability to the people of Langas, you know?" ”

By the end, the tone had become stern.

On a cold day, Fleck felt that his back was wet and wet, and he knew that he was thinking badly, so he didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly replied, "Yes, my lord!" ”

"Go back, I'll come back to Savile Town in a while, and I'll settle this expense when the time comes."

"Yes."

Fleck left, but soon sent another man, who said to be proficient in the Langas dialect of the Northlands, and after Shado accepted it, he directly ordered the ship to sail.

It wasn't until night that the cargo ship arrived at Linshui Village under the spell lighting of Xia Duo.

……

It was already late at night when a boatload of Langasians were set up in the southern area of Linshui Village, but Xia Duo still did not rest, but discussed with Leiden the arrangements of these Langas.

"My lord, the Langas are not good at planting, I think they can be allowed to raise livestock and supply the food of the territory, which is what they are better at, and some of the young and strong can also be incorporated into the territorial guard, and now there are more and more people in the territory, and the adult said that there will be more next year, and the territory will be expanded, so the number of guards is a little insufficient."

Now there are only forty people in the territorial guards, divided into four squads, which does seem to be a little small, but Xia Duo is thinking about the magic troops, and Simon has already learned to use magic scrolls, as long as there are more people who will learn next, the number of people is not a problem, as long as there are more scrolls.

On the other hand, Shado did not want these Langasians to do the same work as before, such as fighting, raising livestock, etc., and if he wanted to assimilate, it was better to treat them like a blank slate, and not get used to them.

It's just that the Great Xia Collar has not actually formed any unique advanced civilization, and if you want to assimilate, you still need to attract and transform it at the material level.

For example, food, clothing, housing and transportation.

But at the same time, these color-resistant people in the Great Xia Collar also need to be attracted and transformed at the material level, so that the spirit of civilization can penetrate into the material and imperceptibly affect them.

Thinking like this, Xia Duo gradually had an idea, "Those Langas will not arrange work for the time being, and I will arrange for someone to teach them the lingua franca of Nay in winter, and if they can't have a simple conversation after opening, they will take back the house they live in now." ”

Although these Langas came to the Great Xia Territory on their own initiative, in fact, if they were not cornered, how could they be willing to leave their homeland?

The house just given to them is not given to them directly, unlike the house allocated to the people who have participated in the development of the territory before, the house given to the Langas is only for them to live temporarily.

If Xia Duo is not satisfied, he can take them back at any time, or even directly make them slaves.

The language must be unified, for the time being, Xia Duo can't create a new Daxia language, even if it is created, it doesn't make much sense, the influence of the Daxia Collar is really limited, and it is still necessary to use a common language in the outside world.

Nay language is not difficult to learn, Xia Duo himself has experienced it, give them a winter time, and do not require them to be proficient, as long as they can understand simple instructions and have simple conversations, and then they can learn slowly in labor.

If that doesn't work, then don't blame him for being rude.
