Wowards whispered in Neo's ear, "Neo, do you want to bring Count Fabilas and ask him for advice?" ”

Count Fabilas did not return to Frost Moon City this time, the Count has been in charge of the Frost Moon Territory for decades, and the affairs in it have already been mastered, Count Fabilas simply explained the matter to his cronies, and he himself stayed in the town to concentrate on cultivation.

Neo slapped his head, yes, why not use a ready-made helper himself. Neo hurriedly sent someone to ask for Count Fabilas.

When Count Fabilas was young, he studied at the top aristocratic academy in the Dongsheng Continent, Northern Spring, which not only taught students the way of cultivation, but also taught them the knowledge of governing their territory, and many nobles tried their best to send their children to this academy.

It was in this academy that Count Fabilas became acquainted with the current Emperor, His Majesty Ferdirando, who had governed the Frost Moon Territory for decades, and Neo was not worth mentioning in the eyes of the Count. Soon the Count worked out the measures and promulgated them.

After these things, the Earl and Neo came to the study, and the Count said to Neo, "Neo, the town of Maple Grove is developing rapidly, and you are in dire need of talents for internal affairs, which no one can give you. There is a very important reason for this, if it is given to your internal affairs personnel, it is suspected of meddling in your internal affairs. Nothing like this could have been done by anyone anyway. So, it's up to you to find out. The Bright Holy Sect is full of talents, and you are the patron of the Ice and Snow Goddess, this time the Bright Holy Sect has supported you with all their might, but they have not sent you personnel to manage internal affairs, it is out of this consideration, do you understand? ”

Neo said, "I see, Uncle Fabiliath, you go on. ”

The earl said: "I have been in charge of the Frost Moon Territory for decades, and the Frost Moon Territory has such a small population, and the talents that can be used have long been searched by everyone. All the talents already have allegiances, and I haven't found any new ones yet. So we have to recruit talent from outside. In the past, we were poor and white, and no one wanted to come, but now we have enough resources in our hands, you have enough power, and Maple Grove is a territory that has just begun to be built. These are very attractive to talents from the mainland, and as long as we publicize the situation here, I believe that many people will be willing to come to us. ”

Count Fabilas was well organized and gave Neo a detailed analysis of the current situation. "If you want to recruit talents, you must first open up roads, although the roads on land are now opened, but the land roads are far away, and the cost of taking an airship is too high, which is not realistic for people who want to come to us. We have only one land route out of here, and the sea route extends in all directions, and the merchant ships come and go like clouds, so it is much more convenient to transport supplies and spread the news. Neo, you are now strong in force, and it will be easy for you to open the Tentacle Strait, so I propose to open the sea passage. ”

Neo said, "Uncle Faberiath, you mean to get rid of the pirates in the Tentacle Strait?" ”

"No, Neo, not to get rid of it. I mean take them in and make them work for us. ”

"Playing for us?" Neo said with some confusion,

The Earl looked at Neo's confused expression and continued: "The Tentacle Strait is on the edge of our empire, to be precise, only half of that place belongs to our Storm Empire, and half belongs to the Principality of Snow Ridge, that group of pirates is very smart, they only plunder those ordinary merchant ships, rarely touch the caravans of the empire or the great nobles, and they rarely kill or injure people, plus their location is deep in the bay, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if our empire sends troops alone to destroy them, it is not cost-effective." Over time, we, the Wind Empire, turned a blind eye to them. But they are very close to the Principality of Snow Ridge, according to my intelligence, they have the secret support of the Principality of Snow Ridge behind them, and some high-level officials in the Principality of Snow Ridge have colluded with them, which is also an important reason why the Principality of Snow Ridge does not send troops to attack them. Otherwise, this group of pirates will not survive in the gap between the two countries. ”

Count Faberias, as the master of the Frost Moon Lord, has a clear understanding of the situation of this group of pirates. "This group of pirates has been entrenched in the Tentacle Strait for decades, and has accumulated a solid family foundation, even small magic energy spar cannons, if they attack on a large scale, they will fight for their lives, and the casualties will be very heavy, then it will be too cost-effective. I wonder if I can ask Instructor Tina to go and simply subdue those leaders by force, on the other hand, give them a little sweetness, hehe, candy and sticks, this method has been used from ancient times to the present, and there is nothing that does not work. ”

The Earl smiled as he spoke, "There are seven leaders of their group, and they are known as the Seven Kings of the Secret Sea. The place where they are entrenched is also called Qiwang Village. ”

The Earl smiled contemptuously: "They are not monolithic inside, seven people and seven forces. The most powerful is an ice-wolf clan, called Tutu, he alone can almost top half of his power, and he also has a deputy, who is of the same clan as him, a shaman, called Zambideta, both of them are cultivators of the transcendent realm, and the others are afraid of his power, so they can only unite to fight against him. The Principality of Snow Ridge is worried about losing control of the Seven Kings Village, and deliberately supports the weaker side, and the support for him is not as good as the others, we just need to subdue him, give him a little support, and leave the rest to him to clean up. ”

The Earl paused slightly, "There are two advantages to subduing this group of pirates, we will develop in the future, it will inevitably arouse the covetousness of many people, our Frost Moon Territory is currently weak in the armament at sea, it is better to let them stand in the way, as the first barrier to the sea passage of my Maple Grove Town." Another advantage is that we will need thousands of materials to develop here in the future, and there are some things that are prohibited by the countries on the continent and can only be obtained through official channels, which will be very costly. In addition to plundering merchant ships, this gang of pirates does all other smuggling and smuggling goods, and we will hand over this kind of thing to this gang of pirates, which can save a lot of trouble. ”

The nobility really put interests first, and Count Fabilas stood in the perspective of a lord to plan for Neo, and he also put interests first. Neo listened and nodded constantly, Count Fabilas, as the commander of one side, did have a much higher view of many matters than ordinary people.
