If her previous favorability for the human aristocracy was 50 - the stupid landlord guest who bought goods to make them money, now her favorability has dropped to minus 100.

It's not just that I'm angry, but I understand that these nobles don't have a good thing.

Although the Elven Queen's kindness was limited to elves and animal companions, she had much more compassion for slaves than those nobles.

Handing over to Lanceville was the most reassuring thing for her.

But Philos did not immediately agree to the free slaves, but asked, "How many are there?" ”

A simple sentence made the elf queen's scalp explode immediately.

Many, how many?

It's really hard to say this figure, the mortality rate is high in winter, and even if slaves are cheap before winter, slave owners will not buy them in large quantities at this time.

But the Galts were the masters of the largest slave trade in the South.

200 million is definitely there, 300 million...... Maybe.

But how many people are there in Lanceville?

More than three million, only more than three million.

None of the undead scourge in Philos had such a huge number.

In other words, if Philos took over this group of slaves, the pressure would be more than 100 times greater.

"This ......"

The Elven Queen herself was too embarrassed to say any more.

"So, what should I do then...... "The rations of so many people are a big problem.

She suddenly understood why the nobles were so harsh on their slaves.

300 million slaves, if the daily cost is 1 copper coin, then it will cost 300 million copper coins a day, that is, - 3 million gold coins!

Three million gold coins a day, ninety million gold coins a month, plus the purchase cost of slaves and the loss of death, this business-

The Elven Queen hurriedly threw out all the inappropriate thoughts in her mind.

First, the nobles did not give their slaves more than 1 copper coin a day; Second, these slaves could not stop working for a day, going to the fields to do farm work, go to the mines, take care of the livestock, and clean ...... These create a value much greater than 1 copper coin; Third, even if a large number of slaves were sold for 1 copper coin higher than the purchase price, so many slaves would be a huge amount of money.

After all, if they had lost money, these nobles would not have bought so many slaves at all.

The elf queen calculated an account, an adult has to eat at least 3 catties of potatoes a day to have the strength to work, and now the market price of potatoes outside is 12 copper coins a catty, and 300 million people eat three catties a day, so it is 100 million and eight million gold coins.

The cheapest set of defective cotton clothes in Lanceville is 80 copper coins, but the defective model is a loss price, and the normal cost of a set is about 1 silver coin, and 300 million sets is ......

The Elven Queen shuddered.

At the same time, the image of Philos became incomparably greater in her heart.

She knew before that it would not be easy to afford so many people in Lanceville, but she really hadn't thought about it.

Now that I think about it, I suddenly realize that this is something more difficult than hell!

"You...... I ...... "After thinking about it, the elven queen doesn't want to bear the burden of these people's futures.

Elves should be free and freewheeling, not trapped at their desks for the sake of hundreds of millions of people.

The Elven Queen threw the Spatial Ring to Philos in almost horror.

"This is their food and resettlement expenses, and they and these gold coins will all be entrusted to you, Lord Lord!"

The elves smashed all the castles in Galt's name, but they were not so stupid as to spare their treasures.

The space ring given to Philos was full of gold coins, exactly 100 billion gold coins.

This amount of money is nothing to the Galt family, a year's net profit is almost that, and the history of the Galt family is more than a thousand years.

The Elven Queen packed the money and the slaves and threw them to Philos, which was a little bit of a relief for her guilt, but it was also the best solution at the moment.

Not long after the elven queen fled, Joshua came in, picked up the spatial ring and sighed, "Elf...... It's so simple! ”

It was all going according to Joshua's plan.

The only difference is in this spatial ring and the gold coins inside.

Joshua thought that the elves would give them a little money to make up for their guilt with their simple personality, but he didn't expect that the elves would be so generous when they spent money that was not their hard-earned money.

So generous that Joshua was a little embarrassed.

After all, all they did was send the elves a demon summoning array.

Whether it was to encircle the Galt family or loot the treasure, it was the elves themselves who did it.

For this encirclement and suppression activity, they even contributed hundreds of billions of turnover to Lanceville's equipment street, and the warehouses were emptied.

The population of 300 million or so was ridiculously large, but Philos and Joshua had already planned it long before the Elven Queen came to ask for help.

With 300 million people, Lanceville will definitely not be able to eat, and even if all the manpower is mobilized now, there is no way to reach the current level.

Houses can be built with magic, but security, finance, education, ...... It's not like you'll be able to keep up in a moment.

When the time comes, it will only drag down the current Lancevelly.

So, they only selectively absorb some people.

For the rest, there is a straight line of ventilated hovertrains between Lanceville and the Galtic Territory.

Lanceville is still too remote, it is a city for adventurers with good resources for Philos, but it is too remote for the radiation sources that affect other cities.

The cities in the Galt Territory are very good, they are bordered by large cities, developed trade, and prosperous economies, and three of them are large cities with more than half a million people.

The influence is very large, as long as there is a change, it can become a vane leading the "fashion".

Philos was ready to let most of the people develop where, and then there was - to scatter the sparks.

The major nobles are short of people, although these "people" are no different from goods in their eyes, they are goods, but goods and goods are also different.

The treatment of transcendent slaves is not the same as that of ordinary slaves.

Philos could teach them literacy, give them literacy, teach them the idea of "self-reliance" and then sell them.

In the hands of the nobility, they are the tinder.

The seeds of thought are, in some ways, more terrible than the plague.

The gap between ordinary people and transcendents is huge, but what about 100 million lv.1? 1 billion lv.1?

Someday, this gap will be erased little by little.

But that's a long time later.

The biggest crisis at the moment is the issue of feeding and managing this group of people.

300 million people...... It's quite a challenge.

Although he is a slave, because he is a slave, he does not have any moral level to speak of, and he can do anything in order to survive.

It's a pitiful person, but not all poor people are honest people who keep to themselves, kind and simple.

It still makes sense for the poor mountains and bad waters to come out of the people.

Just look at Lanceville, it took several crackdowns in exchange for the current law and order environment.

But even with so many horrific strike-hard campaigns, the crime rate is still not zero.

Before the wind suspension train is directly connected, the management regulations must first be considered, and then the management talents.

"Fortunately, the official (game) system has been prepared." Philos was a little lucky, but fortunately the food saver Shuya mentioned it, otherwise the current progress would probably be "new folder".

It's not that Philos is lazy, but that its role before was only as a "toy" for the two, and it was the icing on the cake, and it didn't have much impact if it didn't, so it didn't matter what the progress was.

After Philos took care of it, the progress was very fast, and now it is already possible to test it internally.

"In terms of candidates, I think Betsy is good, what about you?" Betsy was a quick learner, and he had been by Philos' side since he came to Lanceville, and as a secretary, he was arguably the most familiar with the management of the city besides Philos and Joshua.

Joshua's abilities were much better than Betsy's, but he couldn't leave Lanceville for long.

After all, their focus is still on the construction of Lancevelly, and they can't abandon their roots.

Betsy is a good candidate, but he can't be alone.

At least a quarter of the civil servants in the Consulate have to be drawn, and the public security has to draw two-thirds, and there is also the Siri army, half of which also feels less.

“…… Let's recruit people. ”

Originally, I wanted to solve the problem of Lanceville's use of the labor shortage, but I didn't expect that the shortage of people would be even worse.

Joshua comforted him: "Bear with me, and when the first batch of students graduates, there will be someone available." ”

But how long will it take?

Although the first batch of students has been enrolled for a semester, the results of this year's final exam, whether it is the first year or the second year, are quite impressive.

But it's still too slow, too slow.

Six years of elementary school, three years of junior high school, three years of high school, and then I didn't count college.

A hundred years is only a short time on the road to the study of magic.

"Notice, the first open civil service recruitment examination will start in a week, and the registration will start today-" Philos looked at the time and said, "Registration starts at nine o'clock, and tomorrow the number of posts will be counted and the formula will come out, and the registration will be closed in three days, and the written examination will start at nine o'clock in seven days." ”

How can urban management not be examined? The current job recruitment examination is gradually approaching the examination mode in Philos's memory after several months of exploration and adjustment.

But it was the internal beta version of a small number of people, and it was the first time that such a large-scale unified recruitment exam was held.

It was much more than expected, and Philos thought that it would be a few years later, that is, after the first batch of students graduated, that such a formal and rigorous talent examination recruitment selection would be held.

But Philos is really short of people now, and 10,000 civil servants are not too many.

But although it was a little hasty, everyone still has experience, not to mention anything else, the final exams of the three elementary schools have already made them rehearse in advance, and with the experience of the last time, this time it should not be so rushed.

As for the tactics of the sea of questions - the bookstore missed the craze of the library, and now it can take advantage of the momentum to chase the heat!

Chapter 118

The elven queen and the elves drove out the Galt family, which unexpectedly made a big fuss!

Almost everyone is discussing this matter, although it is not in the newspapers, but it is discussed in the streets and alleys, and it is difficult for everyone to think about it.
