I build nuclear bombs in the giant world
Chapter 77 Returning to the old place
Ian wore regular clothes, lowered the brim of his hat, and walked with Ymir on the streets of Reis territory.
This place was taken over by the government last year and is considered one of the areas under direct jurisdiction.
On both sides are pointed houses made of stone, and across the curved arch bridge is the largest market in the town.
The stronghold of the Ian Chamber of Commerce and the new government hall are near the market, and are surrounded by their people, so Ian dared to go out for a stroll with only Ymir as a bodyguard.
If he was in a strange territory, when he went out, in addition to Ymir, there would be at least a team of twenty armed security guards around him.
There is no way, the greater the power, the higher the position, the more people will target him.
In the past, it was Hannes who attracted attention for him, but after the battle to retake Maria, he stood in front of the stage.
The walls have not been twisted into a rope, and the trees are big and attract the wind, so you have to be careful in everything.
After crossing the arch bridge and arriving at the entrance of the market, five or six old women were spread out and sitting on the ground, with a cloth spread out in front of each one.
On the old linen cloth closest to Ian, there are hand-carved wooden totems, and on the other cloths, there are cheap fresh vegetables such as radishes, potatoes, and sweet potatoes.
The round skin of the white radish is stained with soil, and the leaves are green. The corn's skin has not yet been peeled off, and its brown roots hang down from the tip.
Once someone walks by, the old women will shout a few times.
Don’t worry about selling at all.
A large number of residents of Wall Maria still live in Wall Rosey. Although there are chemical fertilizers, glass greenhouses, waterwheels, steel farm tools, etc., which have increased food production, the food is not yet abundant. In front of the vegetable stall, people were already haggling.
A woman holding a little boy by the hand squatted in front of the wood carving stall, preparing to buy a small toy for the child to take back to relieve his fatigue.
It was quite peaceful.
The people of Leith Territory were living a good life.
This is said to be a noble territory, but it is actually the territory of the royal family. It has superior geographical conditions and has close contacts with the royal family. Compared with other places, it has rich resources.
After last year's incident, Ian came back for the first time.
Seeing the familiar scenery again, it feels like a long, long time has passed, far more than a year physically.
He walked up and down, thinking about other things.
The mass production of spinal fluid medicine will take another month, and the territory-wide recruitment is in full swing.
He had no time to rest. He had to return to the royal capital immediately, organize the team, and start the "liquidation" within the Wall of Rosai.
The royal capital's aristocratic system completely collapsed after the giantess incident last year.
But there are still a large number of local nobles within the Wall of Rosai.
They are the local emperors in their own territory, they control part of the power of the local garrison troops, and they also have their own private soldiers.
These are the groups that must be addressed if we want to get out of the walls.
Because Grisha's notes were made public, these people divided into factions. Those who were dissatisfied with the current government jumped out, raised the banner of opposition, incited public opinion, and believed that this was a government conspiracy.
Some keen people among them sensed the crisis. They did not believe in the existence of Marais and considered it an excuse. They did not want to lose the power in their hands, and each used their own means to put pressure on the government.
The names of these people were added to the list within the past month.
The so-called "liquidation" is to visit the great nobles within the Wall of Rose, determine their ideas, and negotiate with them.
To put it bluntly, it means criticizing the nobles, confiscating their property and power, and leaving one-third of an acre of land for those who can listen. If they can't change their minds, there is nothing they can do.
In order to prepare for war with Marais, all internal unstable factors must be eliminated.
Although it seems calm now, soon, there will be an innovation within the walls that involves everyone.
Ian walked silently in the lively market, visiting places he was familiar with.
Most of the owners and locations of the shops have not changed. The destruction of Wall Maria has not had a big impact on the Reis Territory, which is close to the royal capital. Most of the people here have only heard about the tragedy of Wall Maria. Saw it with my own eyes.
The major events that happened to Lord Reis and the senior officials of the Royal Capital had little to do with them.
In the first few days, everyone would still discuss and discuss, but once the heat passed, they returned to normal life.
Apart from accepting some refugees, it doesn't feel like much to them.
The number of soldiers stationed there has changed, and there are more unfamiliar faces.
Ian returned to his hometown after more than a year and found that the place was almost the same as before.
He visited the tailor shop, butcher shop and vegetable wholesale shop in the market from a distance.
Cali’s younger siblings work in these shops.
They are very energetic, either carrying goods under command, or measuring guests' bodies with tape measures. Cali's younger siblings are living an active and peaceful life.
It was approaching noon, and the number of people in the market gradually dwindled.
The store clerks also have time to rest.
The workplaces of Cali's brothers and sisters are all on the same street. When he introduced the boss to them, Ian spent a lot of effort and found several shops worthy of trust in terms of character and strength. The owners of the shops had many contacts with Lacey Farm. , Ian and those bosses are old acquaintances.
It seemed that they were having a good time. During lunch break, they gathered at the butcher shop to rest and chat together.
It was almost as expected. After all, after the establishment of the Ian Chamber of Commerce, this market was the first area served.
When a place becomes prosperous and public security improves, the locals will naturally live a good life.
This is what Ian promised Cali, to take good care of his younger siblings.
He could only give some attention quietly like this. If he did it too obviously, it would be easy to be found out, and then these children would be involved in disputes.
He never thought about asking Cali's younger brothers and sisters to work with him. There would never be any glory or wealth around him, and they might die in a random shooting one day.
"Second brother, do you really want to sign up for military conscription?"
The youngest sister was chatting with the eldest boy. Ian was not far away from them and could hear their conversation clearly.
"Well, I want to give it a try. I heard that if you pass the unified test the day after tomorrow, you can join the army."
They chatted for a while, mostly about the boy's participation in the military draft.
"Go back." Ian pressed his hat and said to Ymir.
"Have you seen enough?" Ymir rested his hands on his head.
“After walking around for a while, I felt it was no longer interesting.”
Ian used the corner of his eye to glance at the boys and girls eating together next door.
There are four people in total, three boys and one girl. They are a family and have grown up to face life.
He strode forward and left the market.
A few days later, the boys and girls gathered together again.
"Second brother, what happened?"
"No. I didn't choose. I don't know why. Mr. Bot's nephew has passed the test."
The boy sighed, turned around, returned to the butcher shop, and continued cutting meat.
The younger brother and sister looked at each other, without saying any words of comfort. They each returned to their respective positions, living an ordinary but precious day.
