Chapter 719: Immigration Policy in the City of Faith
"A total of 8,000 civilians can be left, preferably mainly Tesser's immigrants, no more than 2,000 on the Dragon Coast, and it is best to pick the kind of people who have a grudge against the Dragon Coast, especially those who have been persecuted by the dark organization."
Carl had already prepared for this, this place was too close to the Dragon Coast, if too many Dragon Coast immigrants were left here, it would be easy to be infiltrated by the dark forces of the Dragon Coast, but they couldn't leave nothing behind, they had to leave some people who were more familiar with the situation over there to facilitate the follow-up fight.
"What about the army? What else do you need besides the Legion of the Amputators? ”
"It's best to let the Nott Guard Heavy Cavalry led by the Captain Nora stay in the City of Faith for a while, although the great force of the monsters in the Goblin Frontier has been defeated and strangled, but there are more monster tribes that have not participated in this war, and as soon as the main force leaves, they will inevitably be ready to move, and it will take a long time to completely eliminate them."
Carl chose to let Nora and them stay, in addition to the reasons mentioned above, there is another reason that cannot be ignored, they are all Gavin's descendants, the original team.
With them stationed here, it's easier for him to show that he's not selfish.
Born in a noble family of Simon, he is proficient in the art of power management and knows very well the importance of loyalty, especially in such a relatively independent high position, even far more than ability.
And that's what he lacks most here with Gavin.
"Yes, but this kind of stationing of theirs is temporary, and I may transfer them at any time, so you need to organize your own cavalry regiment as soon as possible." Gavin agreed.
In the rocks, the Heavy Knights are of little use, it is better to stay in the City of Faith, and wait for the army to leave for some time, and it is not too late for them to catch up.
"As for the development of the City of Faith, the Lord has already paved the way for us, I just need to go down."
"The first and most central point is to encourage immigrants, whether they are from the Dragon Coast or on the other side of the Sunset Mountains, including the Cormier Kingdom, if they want to come, we must open our arms. ”
This strategy of encouraging migration was not simply influenced by the armies of the conquerors.
It is inevitable that the wasteland of the goblin border wasteland will open up new settlements and new cities, after all, through the way of natural life, the speed of effect is too slow, and it is far less convenient to encourage immigrants and eat the demographic dividend of other regions.
"There is no problem with the core policy." Gavin agreed, "This will be one of the core tasks of your City of Faith, not only for the City of Faith to settle, but also for the rocks, for the valleys, the key question, how do you get those residents to voluntarily leave their comfort zone?" Immigrants to the City of Faith? ”
Due to many reasons such as the early and late settlement, as well as the national system and the density of monsters, the population of Faeron is extremely unevenly distributed.
In areas such as Karlinsan, Tessel, and Am, human settlement can be pushed back tens of thousands of years, and all three were under the rule of the powerful Shane dynasty for a long time.
It was only before 1349 that the valley reached an agreement with the elves, and the standing stones began to open the first human settlement in the clearing of the Great Forest of Comanso.
It took thirty or forty years for the first king of the Cormir Kingdom to take his wife Susar to open up the first wasteland and establish his own manor in the current royal capital.
If Gavin wanted to grow rapidly in the valley, he would have to draw a steady stream of people from the west coast of Feren, and the army of conquistadors was just the beginning.
Just based on the area of the valley, let alone 50,000, even if it is increased by a hundred times, to 5 million, Gavin can arrange it for them clearly.
At that time, there is no need for him to compete for the king of the valley, and this title will naturally fall on his head, which is an out-and-out conspiracy.
But the model of the army of conquerors is difficult to replicate, and there are many reasons for this.
The macro reason is that Tesser has been at war for many years, and many residents have a serious sense of belonging there, and they just want to find a peaceful place free from war.
The direct cause is the large-scale monster disaster last year, which caused countless refugees to pour into Darauma City, causing the city to develop too fast, far beyond the limit of what it can bear, and many citizens are on the verge of famine, and the catastrophe is imminent.
And Zalanda, the lord of Dalauma City, fully cooperated with Gavin and pushed forward with the matter.
Now that the situation over there has been completely reversed, not only will there be no more refugees, but Darauma will have the spare energy to start absorbing the refugees from other parts of the Tesser Kingdom.
Compared to the City of Faith, thousands of kilometers away, Dalauma is more attractive to the Tasselsers.
The most dissatisfied, the poorest, and the most migratory on the Dragon's Coast were almost all taken away by the army of conquerors, and most of the rest were home and property, and were more satisfied with their current lives.
On top of that, stimulated by the army of conquerors, the Dragon Coast is no longer a plate of scattered sand, but has formed an alliance of eight cities, and they are very wary of the City of Faith, whether it is the forces of the light or the forces of darkness, they will join forces to stop the immigrants and prevent them from continuing to sit large.
Small-scale, fragmented immigrants are the route to be taken in the future, and the City of Faith will be their most important transit point, and attracting immigrants will be his core task on an ongoing basis.
"This should be done in different ways according to different regions." Karl was clearly prepared for this, "Let's analyze little by little, first of all, the densely populated ancient kingdoms south of the Giant's Plains, along the shores of Am, Tesser, Karlinsan, and the Lake of Steam.
Although we have carved out the path of the conquerors, it is too long for ordinary people to move alone, and the risk of moving alone is too great, and they will not make this choice easily without falling into despair.
If we continue to organize migration, we don't need to be as large as the army of the conquerors, but only a few hundred, even a few dozen, led by people who know the way well, will greatly increase the likelihood that they will make this choice.
We can negotiate with the local friendly forces to establish a migrant trade union, or an immigration chamber of commerce, where the immigrants and the chamber of commerce can be combined, and the immigrants will be immigrated while doing business, without delay, and when the time comes, it will be more like hiring workers to go north than immigration. ”
"Your suggestion is very good, and the Chamber of Commerce of Immigrants will be established by your City of Faith as your municipal chamber of commerce."
Gavin directly clapped his head, "I will build idol hotels along the Path of the Conqueror, and in each inn, a medium-sized road idol will be set up in preparation for upgrading the super giant god statue in the future."
These idol inns were also given to your City of Faith to be established as an important part of the Chamber of Immigrants.
Each idol inn is a collection point for local immigrants, as well as a settlement site, and they will be transformed into settlements and villages.
The construction of the idol inn can be integrated with the road refinement of the kobold road repair team. ”
Gavin originally wanted to continue the development of the Conquistador's Road hotel chain with Goser's mother, but the value shown by the glass water lantern was far higher than expected.
Before the factory was established, the Cormier royal family placed an order for thousands of pieces, although the value was not too high, that is, hundreds of thousands, but it greatly enhanced the confidence of the villagers of Nimir Village, and everything was advancing very quickly.
It is believed that when the royal glass water lantern is delivered, a new fashion will be blown in Susar, and those large and small aristocrats will follow the trend and use it to decorate their banquet halls and show their taste and wealth.
This transaction alone took up most of their energy, and how could they still be able to cooperate with Gavin in the Path of the Conqueror?
After all, they are just a hall of joy, with limited manpower, and there is no way to compare with Gavin, who has a big business now.
With the Statue of the Road God, the meaning of these hotels to Gavin is a little different, it is no longer a simple point of interest, but also an important transit point for troops, and an accumulation point of primitive beliefs.
When he ascended to the rank of Path, they would become Gavin's first shrines.
In this way, it is not suitable to operate in conjunction with others, but completely in your own hands.
"Okay, I'll definitely live up to my lord's expectations." Karl said confidently.
This confidence comes not only from his own ability, but also from a series of new things brought to the extraordinary young commander in front of him.
With the huge manpower and material support given by the other party, even ordinary hotels can play tricks, not to mention that there is a cheating device like a road god statue behind, whether it is information convenience and security, it has incomparable advantages.
If you can't do it yourself, then don't think about finding a dark night mask for revenge, and be honest with your tail between your legs.
"It's just one way to start our own chamber of commerce, why don't we cooperate with other chambers of commerce and let them help bring more immigrants north, and pay them a certain commission for each one they brought." Kalisa had a whim.
This half-Goliath, half-Drow has tapped many talents in the army of conquerors that cannot be tapped in the Goliath tribe, and she is not just a general who can charge into battle, but also a handsome talent.
Now he is also one of the chief of staff of the army of the conquerors, attending all the large and small development and war meetings.
"No." The others present vetoed in unison.
Looking at the confusion on Kelissa's face, Gavin patiently explained: "You live in the mountains all year round, and you don't know that people are sinister, and once this kind of thing involves money, those businessmen can do all kinds of things.
When the time comes, it is very likely that they will forcibly take many civilians who do not want to emigrate against the will of those immigrants, so what is the difference between them and the slave trade?
And these immigrants are going to become our subjects, and they are likely to transfer negative emotions to us, thus planting many root causes.
We can use various preferential policies to keep the hired workers of those caravans, or attract those immigrants to use the hands of these caravans to go north, but we must not solve the problem by money.
This is also the case with the slave empire of Karlinshan, where we would rather cooperate with the local slave rescue organizations and eliminate those slave organizations than buy slaves from those slave owners and slave organizations.
Even in the name of salvation, because our purchases, even in the name of kindness and salvation, are also helping the prosperity of the slave industry in disguise.
We have no way of judging which slaves were already there, and which ones were newly captured by the slave traders after we had made a bid.
This is a matter of the most basic principle, and the line must not be crossed. ”
Gavin's attitude towards the slave industry was as resolute as ever, and he would not tolerate it, even if it was an indirect stimulus.
His starting point was never kindness, but revenge, a personal vendetta from a previous life.
This kind of hatred, he not only has to take revenge on the Santarin, but he does not tolerate all the slave traders.
The others didn't know this, so it was a wonderful misunderstanding to attribute this to Gavin's good character.
Kailisha suddenly realized: "Lord Lord, this matter is simple for me to do, I have no opinion." ”
"Lord Cal, you can continue."
"After talking about the long-distance immigration policy, let's talk about the close, the difficulty of immigration to our neighbors in the three directions is different.
The rarest of the country belongs to the Cormier Kingdom, which has been peaceful for a long time, and the people have developed their own sense of pride, and there are even exclusive ballads such as Cormier's boasting, and it is not generally difficult to absorb immigrants from here.
Especially now that the Red Springs Reclamation Area in the northeast has begun to develop on a large scale because of the rock-land bet, those Cormiers who have the adventurous spirit and seek change will give priority to running in this direction rather than going to the goblin borderland.
If some of them do come here, we are afraid that we will have to be cautious, because they are very likely to be criminals who cannot stay in the Cormier Kingdom, and there is no way to take them in for public or private purposes.
So, he is not our priority direction, there is the best, and it is normal that there is not.
Our focus should be on the cities on the west side of the Sunset Mountains and the Dragon's Coast, which are about the same level of difficulty.
The people of the Dragon Coast are very profitable, even if they form the Eight-City Alliance, they can't change this, as long as they know that the City of Faith is not a land of yellow barbarians, they can easily find wealth here, and they don't need our encouragement at all, they will naturally rush to this side.
When people's hearts are floating, they can't stop it, and they have a way to go north.
This can be integrated with our own development.
The Lord has created countless jobs, such as Steck bush cultivation, fish feed processing, fish farming, popping shrimp and electric eel farming, glass firing plant, glass bottle blowing factory, glass lamp manufacturing plant, sand quarry, quarry, biocement manufacturing plant.
Many of these are emerging industries, and there are countless opportunities to mine their own wealth, and as long as someone can dig their first pot of gold from it, there will be countless people who will follow crazy.
In order to attract more people, we need to continue to build more houses and provide free food and lodging for those who are willing to stay in the city and work hard.
In particular, artisans with a skill who rent their shops to them at a cheap rent.
This is only a preliminary policy, and we will adjust it in time according to actual needs, and I believe that the city has an unbelievable commercial competitiveness, and with the loose alliance of the Dragon Coast, there is no way to compete with us.
When our rise is unstoppable.
Many of those mercenary merchants and dark guilds will fall in our direction.
We can take the opportunity to pull one faction, suppress one faction, and fight another faction, and it won't be long before the so-called Eight Cities Alliance will fall apart and turn back to its original scattered sand. ”
Carl's main target is the Dragon's Coast, both because he knows the place well enough and because it is the most densely populated outside of the Cormier Kingdom.
The small and medium-sized towns on the west side of the Sunset Mountains can't compare to this place.
"Fish feed made from Stark bushes was successful? The Luminous Aqueduct was successfully built? Are the results of the biocement test in? Gavin hurriedly asked.
Although he introduced these new things, he was so busy during this period of time that he didn't bother to pay attention to their follow-up process.
Listen to what Carl meant, there is also going to be a large-scale factory production here? Is it so fast?
"Yes, it all worked." Karl admired from the bottom of his heart, "Lord Lord's eyes are like torches, how can he be wrong? They bring not two separate industries to our City of Faith, but two huge industrial chains, which, if rolled out, are enough to feed tens of thousands of people. ”
To say that leading an army of conquerors to open up the City of Faith is a demonstration of Gavin's military ability.
Then the introduction of Stark bush planting and the construction of luminous aqueducts is economic acumen, commercial ability.
It directly found two pillar industries for the City of Faith, and they complement each other in many ways.
For example, the cultivation of Stark shrubs is perfectly integrated with the fishing industry of Thun Marsh, and it is also cross-integrated with the cultivation of blast shrimp and electric eel, which are another industry.
The production of glass water lanterns will give birth to glass firing, sand mining, quarrying, glass bottle blowing industry, etc., to purchase elsewhere, where is it more convenient to build these industries in your own city?
The bio-cement produced by the departing of the shells of the blasted crayfish ensured that the army of conquerors left the City of Faith, and the construction of the City of Faith would not be too slow without the support of a large number of spellcasters.
Even Carl, who is not good at imagination, can imagine the business opportunities and vitality that will erupt in the City of Faith next.
If it weren't for the age match, Carl couldn't help but wonder if he was the reincarnation of the missing goddess of wealth, Wokin, with the ability to turn stones into gold, and as for gender, it was not a problem for the gods.
"Let's hear about it." Gavin said with great interest.
"The process of making fish food from Stark bushes is very simple, as long as they are mixed with all kinds of grass and aquatic plants, they are broken up, stirred together, and thrown in the water, which can attract those fish to rush to eat.
The druids are working on ways to dry and compact the feed and store it for a long time in the winter when grass is scarce.
With Stark bushes as bait, the black-scaled lizardmen in Thun Swamp doubled their catch in just ten days.
In the future, the catch here alone will feed tens of thousands of people. ”
Carl clearly knew what Gavin was most interested in, and only focused on it, "We have organized a large-scale planting of Stark bushes in land that cannot be developed in a short period of time, especially along the Path of the Conquistador.
From next summer, we will be able to organize our hands to go out and harvest, and we will be able to harvest twice a year. ”
