Emperor of Arcane

"It's because I don't know when the battle will end."

"So, we're going to have an efficient and low-key plan."

"To help us solve the troubles and difficulties we may encounter."

"And, without causing resistance from other nobles and territories..."

For now, the reputation of the Gulf Territory in Bloodmoon City and Cal Plains is pretty good.

Maintaining a "friendly" attitude can prevent the Gulf Territory from receiving too much hostility in its future development.

This is necessary before the Gulf Territory grows up!

After all, jealous people are everywhere!

Mathieu drew a large circle in the central and eastern part of the Karl Plain, with special markings away from the Gulf Territory and close to the villages and reed areas of the Danube River Basin.

"The original method was too slow."

"And because interests are involved, it is very easy to cause casualties..."

Driven by profit, Matthew never underestimates the evil side of intelligent creatures.

Such as some looters.

Another example is some slave-catching teams.

After hearing what Matthew said in detail, the big guy calmed down.

Indeed, one cannot increase population without causing disastrous consequences.

In the final analysis, the purpose of Gulf Territory is more for everyone to live a better life, and we must not sacrifice the good for the sake of the bad.

After stroking his unkempt beard and looking at the area near the water, Old John understood the lord's plan and immediately suggested:

"We can establish small strongholds along the Danube waters."

"Then, you can use a small teleportation array to radiate the surrounding area?"

Others nodded in agreement with his proposal.

There are fishmen controlled by the lord.

Even if they go deep into the Karl Plain, they can still have good military power around the stronghold.

Using a small teleportation circle, you can quickly mobilize manpower or retreat directly.

However, there is a key problem!

Elio, who knew more about the situation, recalled the lack of professional manpower in the territory at this time, shook his head and continued:

"On our own, we obviously don't have enough manpower. We can recruit adventurers, especially the group who are cooperating in the Karl Plain."

Mentioning these adventurers, everyone had a knowing smile on their faces.

Thanks to the "good reputation" of the Gulf Territory, more and more adventurers are willing to come to the Gulf Territory.

Moreover, they are all accustomed to the various rules of the Gulf Territory.

The power of habit is powerful!

They did not behave as unscrupulously as other places, but instead provided a lot of help to the Gulf Territory.

After all, it is better to live a life of risk-taking than betraying one's conscience, licking blood on the edge of a knife, and being on tenterhooks.

The conditions provided by the Gulf Territory to adventurers are simply not very good.

To put it simply, Matthew increases the cost of crime for adventurers, forcing them not to break the rules.

Then, cooperate with the iron fist of justice in the Gulf Territory to provide a double guarantee!

Matthew turned to look at Leon. As one of the managers who had the most contact with adventurers, he needed to think more as a young man.

Meeting the Lord's gaze, Leon suppressed the slight nervousness in his heart, pondered for a while and then said:

"We can put it another way, instead of focusing on attracting people as the primary purpose, we can explain the mission in terms of recruiting workers."

"That way, they won't be resistant."

"After seeing the beauty of our Gulf Territory, if they want to join, that's their business..."

It has the charm of a lighthouse.

"I didn't expect that!"

"You Leon, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, actually learned this trick without any teacher!"

Seeing the bright smile on Matthew's face, Leon breathed a sigh of relief.

The others' eyes lit up, and they immediately realized the benefits of Leon's method, and they all showed knowing smiles.

Matthew also made no secret of his admiration and gave Lyon a thumbs up:

"Leon's method is good. It not only helps us convince others, but also allows them to convince themselves..."

As long as you don't be so anxious, everything will become natural!

Others suggested additional methods, and Matthew adopted all the useful ones.

The Gulf Territory is developing rapidly, and we must also accelerate our growth.

Not just strength!

After figuring out the new plan to recruit people, Matthew did not end the meeting immediately. Instead, he continued to the next question:

"Presumably, everyone has already noticed it."

"Absorbing too many people at once can easily have a great impact on the existing good social order in the Gulf Territory."

Everyone nodded, they had heard about it these days.

Some situations occurred in the Gulf Territory. Although the twists and turns were quickly calmed down, it is enough to explain the problem.

They didn't have much experience in this area. After briefly thinking about the method, they chose to listen to the lord continue.

Matthew smiled slightly and said to everyone calmly: "The method is very simple, just separate it!"

December 5th.

Carr plain.

Heavy snow.

The howling wind was like an icy blade.

The blowing makes one's cheek hurt.

The crooked team walked on the snow with difficulty.

They tightened their clothes, and there was a little bit of joy in their eyes.

"This damn weather will really freeze people to death!"

"It hasn't snowed so heavily in decades. Fortunately we agreed, otherwise we would probably freeze to death..."

"Is it true that the Gulf Territory is talking about building a pier?"

"There's no benefit in lying to us, as long as you pay us..."

"It seems that the orcs haven't left yet. Isn't there any danger here?"

"The tracks of the orcs are easy to predict. They will only attack villages, towns and castles."

"Hey, when can I go back?"

"Don't think so much, let's survive first..."

"I hope I can give more food so that the children can eat more..."

"The Bay Leader said that children can eat for free."

"Stop talking so much and save more energy."

"..."

When the cold wind blew away their last thoughts, the adventurers who had been leading the way spoke:

"The pier is here, everyone, please line up and come in."

The people who had traveled a long way breathed a sigh of relief. When they looked up, they saw a towering city wall.

Everyone can guarantee that they have not seen this wall last month.

How did it appear?

The two piles of snow split open, and two tall guardian golems appeared in front of everyone.

Seeing them in a panic, the Guardian Golem said in a deep voice:

"Welcome to the Bay Pier, please line up to enter."

"Food and clothes have been prepared. Please change after taking a shower."

"Work for us and the Gulf Territory will do our best to keep you safe!"

"..."

Look at the burly and mysterious Guardian Golem.

They did not dare to refute, saying that they were not safe.

But after the guardian golem said this, no one felt scared anymore.
