After lunch, Shado sent Nia back to the Tower of Time, while he himself disappeared and wandered around the territory.

As the end of the year approached, the temperature in the south became colder, and the people were noticeably less energetic than they were in the spring and summer.

However, compared to the Savile lords who were already content to spend the winter at this time, the Bactria lords were still much more industrious, not to mention the pioneer department, which included most of the lords, and were still working on the frozen land all day long, waiting for the next year's sowing.

The people in the logistics department don't need to go out, but the work of the territory is inseparable from them for a moment, burning bricks, making clothes, building wooden houses, preparing food, and even asking them to find any children who can't find them when they are greedy for fun.

However, now that the population of the territory has reached nearly 10,000, it is no longer as easy to manage as in the past when there were only a few dozen or a few hundred people.

Today, it is rare to observe the people's situation in the territory, and he has seen more than one strong man with sound hands and feet doing nothing in the territory, and even molesting the female staff of the logistics department.

Of course, this kind of thing didn't need him to come forward in person, and after returning to the lord's villa, Xia Duo directly called Leiden over.

"My lord, the code is not finished yet, do you want to check it now?"

"It's not a matter of the code to call you here, let me ask you, has the registration of the people been completed at present?"

"Your Excellency?"

Leiden didn't understand why the lord mentioned this, wasn't this already done? And a copy of the list of consuls is on the shelf in the adult's study.

"Then why are there idlers in the territory who have nothing to do?" Shado asked.

At present, the Great Xia Collar is still a pioneer collar, and all the people are under unified management, and theoretically there will not be even one idler who is not in the establishment.

Of course, this kind of enterprise-style management method, Xia Duo is not going to continue to use it all the time, and after the land is granted, only public servants will be counted in the establishment, mainly relying on laws and regulations (macro-control) to manage the territory, rather than directly commanding each individual.

But now, the territory development is not finished, and it is still necessary to concentrate the most forces and use every citizen who can use it, without wasting a single human resource.

Hearing Xia Duo's question, Leiden immediately knelt down on one knee and said cautiously, "My lord, I need to know more about the situation before I can answer. ”

"Yes, I authorize you to select a monitoring team to deal with this matter, and this monitoring team will continue to be maintained afterwards!"

"Yes!" Layton bowed his head deeply, probably guessing the lord's intentions.

……

After Layton left, Chado sat quietly in his study for a moment, silently pondering.

The construction of the territory is not achieved overnight, and the issue of supervision has long been wanted to be raised, and the discovery of idlers outside the establishment this time is just an excuse.

If you want to be the shopkeeper, you naturally want to improve the territory management system as much as possible, especially in the future, there will be more and more people casting spells in the territory.

A mature and well-established system can avoid most of the troubles of depression.

However, in the wizarding world, the gap in individual strength is so large, and the experience on the earth may not be perfectly transplanted, so what the future will be, Xia Duo needs to slowly run in according to the actual situation.

But in any case, he still believed in the power of order, law, and the human heart, and although these forces could not be seen or touched, they could really affect everyone.

And in the wizarding world, these powers may not be invisible or intangible!

Ryan has always said that [power is born from order], and used this as a guideline for acting, and Xia Duo does not see the so-called [power of order] now, but he cannot completely deny its existence.

Perhaps the Radiant Divine Power is a type of Order Force.

Xia Duo thought for a moment, then took out a pen and paper, wrote a few words on the paper, and asked someone to give it to Leiden.

……

Soon, the time came to January of the year 837 of the Nayxep calendar, and the New Year's celebration took place on the tenth day of January.

After spending the last few days in the Tower of Time, Shado and Nia embark on a teleportation circle to Severton to meet an unknown fate.

Gilles Tower.

As soon as Shador and Nia stepped out of the teleportation room, they heard a commotion in the corridor outside, which was particularly harsh in the normally quiet mage tower.

Xia Duo subconsciously slowed down and pulled Nya by the hand, "Wait, listen to what they're talking about first!" ”

Nia is an extraordinary person, if she appears, those people may not continue to discuss, and even Xia Duo himself, from the changes in his own cloud qi that he has observed during this time, he can probably guess the changes on Sevington's side.

However, even if the teleportation circle was used for reception, there was a lot of movement, and everyone outside saw that no one had come out of the teleportation room, so they quickly realized something, hurriedly left a few words to talk about later, and left one by one.

Fortunately, what they were discussing was not some unspeakable secret, otherwise they wouldn't have been communicating outside the teleportation room.

As for Xia Duo, he was listening attentively, but suddenly there was no follow-up, which felt really a little unpleasant, looking at Niya's expression of wanting to speak and stopping, Xia Duo said helplessly:

"Don't worry, I won't go to the exchange meeting, but the above may not think so, and I may have to go when the time comes."

What the people outside the teleportation room were discussing was the provocation of Master Comanso, of course, this was a private statement, and it was openly in the form of an exchange meeting.

According to those people, several high-level mages in the Seven Towers couldn't stand the provocation of the elves in the past few days, and rashly agreed to a spell duel at the exchange meeting.

The spell duel at this exchange meeting is naturally more of a performance and demonstration, but people make mistakes, horses miss hooves, and elven mages will also spell "out of control".

Although he may not lose his life, it is inevitable that he will lose face and lose face in the Seven Towers.

Xia Duo knew this, but he also knew that sometimes face could be more important than life, especially in the eyes of those in power.

Although those people just now only talked about the situation on the side of the Seven Towers, and did not talk about the situation on the elves' side, from their tones, Xia Duo could also hear that the situation seemed to be a little bad.

And what's even worse is himself, he is now a typical example of the seven towers erected, if he is really asked to come forward, he will not be able to refuse at all.

Maybe that's what the above thinks?

But then Xia Duo rejected this idea, the Arcanist is not an existence that can be discarded at will, let alone a person with such great potential that he can almost be cultivated as a Great Arcanist seed.

It's useless to think too much about it now, maybe you can test it later when you meet Archmage Greta.
