Lord of the Oasis

Presumably it should be the role of both the garrison army and the elf country.

The construction of the wooden house has come to an end, and Kant is very satisfied with the results of the construction.

The number of the first batch of Dherim who migrated to Cumberland was set at about 1,300. In the form sent by Kant and others: focusing on the experience in agriculture and breeding, selected various types of work suitable for Candidates to live in Cumberland.

Of course, age group is also a very important selection point, and the age standard for Cumberland occupants is set at the juvenile to middle-aged stage. However, for those who apply for the migration of the whole family, a special level of care will be given, and whether to be included will be decided according to the specific situation.

After all, the main purpose of asking for land cession was to develop this place into an independent product export place, and the first batch of Dherim who moved in also represented the labor force currently needed by the local area.

Kant's goal is to want Cumberland to get on track quickly and maintain continuous output.

After the release of the list of occupants, all the people on the list also received letters from Cumberland. At the end of the letter, Kant wrote that all those who received the invitation would have a week to prepare. A week later, Dherim's army would escort them to Cumberland territory.

During this week, Kant and the craftsmen went to the seaside to survey from time to time, hoping to find a suitable place to build a harbor.

According to the map, from Cumberland to Deherem can be described as smooth sailing. Compared with the road traffic that takes three or four days, ships on the sea are really more suitable as a transportation channel for goods and commodities.

After several days of continuous surveying, Kant finally found a place suitable for use as a seaport. However, the construction of this harbor still requires the selection of a dedicated designer to guide it, and it also requires the help of an experienced technical team.

Kant ran to neighboring countries every day for this purpose, but he heard that there was no construction team for the seaport in the country of the elves.

After seeking help from the Minister of Foreign Affairs, I received a reply from him: the only seaport in the elves was built by artisans from the dwarf kingdom.

Kant had never dealt with people from the dwarf country before, and when he was considering whether to return to the country to send reinforcements.

I went to Kolias Port in the Elf Kingdom. After visiting, I made up my mind to invite craftsmen from the Gnome Kingdom.

The craftsmanship of the craftsmen of the dwarf country seems to be natural, and every inch of Corias Port is like a perfect wall, magnificent and natural.

The foreign minister gave Kant the way to contact the dwarf country,

And said to him: "The craftsmen in the dwarf country will have some stubborn and strange tempers. After all, if you really want to invite them, you must cooperate with their ideas."

Kant doesn't care about this, he has seen many people with this temper, they just need you to communicate carefully. Of course, there is still little room for negotiation with them in specialized fields.

A week has passed, and Kant has sent an invitation letter to the country of dwarves. But still no reply.

The people who migrated from Dherim will arrive soon, and Kant asked the staff in charge to move all the basic materials into the cabins. And pick a kind of medicine called Xixiancao on the mountain to make incense sticks. Put a few in each wooden house to repel insects and avoid moisture.

After all the personnel arrive, the wooden house can be used for occupancy immediately.

When more than a hundred families came to Cumberland by carriage, Kant did not go out to greet them. Because he is not very suitable for occasions where too many people are watching. After handing over all the hospitality process to the subordinates. Kant went to the main city of Elven City alone. The foreign minister made an appointment with Kant for a drink today.

Kant also took this opportunity to escape from the complicated affairs for a while.

When he arrived at the restaurant in the downtown area of ​​the city, the foreign minister had been sitting there waiting for him for a long time.

Kant could still feel that the foreign minister admired him, but he didn't know where this appreciation came from.

Inadvertently asked during the banquet, the foreign minister said with a melancholy expression: "Actually, I am quite envious of you. You are talented and valued by your leaders."

"The Minister of Foreign Affairs must also be highly valued by His Excellency the Elf King. At the beginning we discussed the project of the market. His Excellency the Elf King also said that he would give full support behind the scenes. Didn't you put forward that opinion in the first place?" Kant replied.

"No, our Elf King has never let the people see his strength. He always hides behind the curtain and cannot make any decisions. He is just happy because someone took the initiative to help him solve some of his troubles." The foreign minister was already drunk and replied vaguely.

After the voice fell, he fell to the side.

Kant walked out of the restaurant and let the attendants accompanied by the foreign minister escort him back to his residence.

Then they took the carriage back to Cumberland's residence. The cabin, which was dark and quiet in the past, was lit up tonight.

When Kant passed by, he could still hear the conversations of the people in the house.

I don't know why my heart warms up a lot.

Some people say that there are two kinds of loneliest people in the world. One is the one who feels depressed when seeing other people happy, and the other is the one who feels warm when he sees happiness in others even if he is outside the situation. up people.

Kant felt that he should belong to the latter category at the moment.

Lay down on the bed with your tired body, close your eyes and sleep. tomorrow is a new day.

A week has passed, and the newcomers have become familiar with their work content, although there is no real output. But following this momentum, Cumberland should soon become a well-established agricultural production area.

The people from the dwarf country sent a reply letter, in which they agreed to take over the project, but the treatment they demanded was also very appalling.

After Kant asked Bundak, he gave a positive answer to the dwarf country.

On the fourth day after the letter was sent, the craftsmen of the dwarf country arrived at the port of Corias on the ship they built.

Kant went to receive them in person as stated in the contract.

For the first time, I met the craftsmen from the dwarf country.

There were about 20 people who came, and they were really not tall, only about 1.3 meters.

All of them have fiery red hair on top of their heads, which looks a little frizzy.

Whispering and talking from the moment they got off the boat, their speech was so fast that it sounded like the common language of their own race.

"Can you speak the language of the human race?" Kant asked.

Communication is a big problem.

"Yes..." the girl standing at the front of the line replied.

Kant's eyes lit up, he noticed this quiet little girl from the very beginning. She seemed to be the leader of their group of gnomes.
