Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Chapter 519 【0512】 Year-end summary of the Northern Territory

In the spring speech, Lux made many promises, the most direct of which was that she would give this year's annual summary to all Forsbarrow people here at the end of this year.

And now, it's time for her to fulfill this promise.

Different from the previous times, this time the people who notified the people of Fosbairo to come to listen to the speech were no longer members of the Chamber of Commerce, but specialized clerks - these people had been trained for three months and were now basically able to I can write well and execute orders according to Lux's requirements.

Although these clerks are really just clerks and can only do things according to the rules, their existence itself represents a brand new order in Forsbarrow, a governance that is completely different from the traditional aristocratic family governance in Demacia. model.

And now, as the people of Fosbello happily gathered in the square, and some even started shouting Laxana's name, this governance model seemed to be good.

Like the previous Spring Speech, the content of Lux's Winter Speech is also quite easy to understand.

“Forsbarrow has gained a lot of people and a lot of changes in the past year.”

“I am honored to be a witness and see these changes in Forsbarrow.”

"I think by now, everyone is used to the Archon and the Newport people, just like they are used to oat milk and kippers on the table."

The ingenious metaphors made the people of Fosbello couldn't help but smile - Lux's use of oat milk to refer to the Archon and pickled fish to represent the people of Newport was very interesting and appropriate.

Whether it’s the new arrivals from Newport and the sea fish they bring, or the law-enforcers who are gradually integrating into ordinary people’s lives and the milk they sell, these are things that many Forsbarrow people are familiar with. For this part of the changes , Lacus didn’t need to say anything, everyone knew it, so Lacus’s joke made almost all the Forsbarrow people present couldn’t help but raise the corners of their mouths.

Amid the smiles of the audience, Lux continued her speech.

"In addition to these new faces and new foods, Fosbairo has some changes that are not obvious at the moment but have actually taken place. These changes are what I have promised and are also the direction of Fosbairo in the future."

"The canal mentioned in the spring speech has now completed the first phase of survey, and will start breaking ground along the old river channel this winter." Lux announced with a proud tone, "The soup basin has been Digging is done, the spoon is also being prepared!”

"The emperor who is in charge of the construction is also recruiting support staff. People who are good at cooking and organizing are welcome to join the construction team. After the speech, interested people can go to the clerk to sign up. In addition to good salary, those who pass the registration will In addition, you can also be the first to touch this spoon."

"So far, Vero Village has successfully completed the planned contents of the Spring Speech. The mineral washing and crushing industries have been taken back into our own hands. Many people in Seka Town, which once choked the neck of Vero Village, have Becoming a member of Vero Village.”

"After the spring of next year, the mine in Vero Village will expand its production scale and recruit miners. This is Mr. Gillam, the president of the Mining Association. Later he will introduce to us the specific conditions required to become a miner."

Gillam, who was named by Lux, came to the stage and waved to the Forsbarrow people in the audience with some restraint.

"In addition to the upcoming excavation of the canal and the recruitment of miners, I am honored to tell you that with the support of the herb collectors' guild, the Royal Master has completed the first phase of the artificial cultivation experiment of fragrant red suspense in an experimental environment. Artificial cultivation of fragrant red solanum."

"In half a month, the experimental planting of fragrant red sage will be carried out in the newly opened nursery in the east of Forsbarrow City. The fence is now closed. Please do not climb over it. Violators will be punished by whipping. .”

"If the experiment goes well and the fragrant red mulberry sprouts successfully sprout next spring, then Forsbarrow will be able to cultivate northern spices artificially for the first time. Training on how to grow fragrant red mulberry will be carried out in the future, so stay tuned."

"In addition, the Fosbarrow Private Army will officially change its name to the Northern Walker Corps from today, and the Fosbarrow Militia will also be reorganized into the Northern Walker Reserve. Those who are interested in joining the military can pay attention to the content of the reserve selection in the subsequent announcement. renew."

"..."

"..."

There is no content that makes people confused. Lux seems to be having a routine, showing the results of her work over the past year to the people of Forsbarrow. Comparing them with the promises she made in the spring, what stands out is a clear Clearly.

The Forsbarrow people in the audience also listened with great interest. Although Lux's speech covered many aspects, many of which they did not understand, there were also areas that they were involved in.

For the areas you don’t understand, listen to a story; for the parts you understand, you should raise your face and be proud.

In addition, although Lux's speech was very long, it was not lengthy. During the half-hour speech, the people listened with great interest. Even when other people came on stage later, many people had bored expressions on their faces. expression.

Finally, when the applause rang out, Lux's first winter speech was also a complete success. Since then, the new lord of Forsbarrow has successfully spent her first year.

When walking off the podium, Lux subconsciously reviewed her experiences over the past year.

When he first came to Fosbarrow, what feelings should the people of Fosbarrow have towards his new lord?

Is it fear? Worry? Is it disgust? Confused?

None of these Lacus are known.

And now, what is there in the eyes of the Forsbarrow people looking at him?

Is it love? Believe it? Is it support? Is it expectation?

But these were not enough to make Lux complacent. She subconsciously thought of Shurima, and how those Shurim people recalled the Shurima Empire. The trip across the Dashai Desert not only strengthened her will, It also broadened her horizons, making it difficult for her to be complacent.

Compared with the once prosperous Shurima Empire, the current Forsbyro people actually have no sense of belonging. Currently, apart from oat milk and pickled fish, apart from cheap furs and ore refining, what they have given them is the most. In fact, it is hope.

Use actions to prove hope, and use hope to condense ideals.

The corners of Lux's mouth turned up slightly, she shook her head, and finally no longer recalled the past, but pursed her lips and showed a smile.

Forsbarrow, the road is long and difficult!

……………………

It's not just Count Laxana of Forsbarrow who wants to sum up the year.

In the Freljord, Ashe and Sejuani were also thinking about the gains and losses of this year beside the tribal bonfire.

For Ashe, this year has been a year of great sorrow and great joy.

Last winter, Winter's Claw's raid dealt a heavy blow to the Avarosan people, with heavy casualties and a large amount of supplies taken away. The city walls alone were not enough to completely withstand Sejuani's troops. Front.

Although the trade with Forsbarrow brought a large amount of oats to Avarosa and successfully survived the difficult days of weaning the Enuk and Yucal calves, a large amount of furs also flowed in. In the hands of the Forsbarrow people in the south.

These furs are undoubtedly not worth mentioning to the Avarosa tribe - if they are not traded with the Forsbarrow people in the south, then they may be used to decorate tents or raise mattresses. Useful, but not entirely useful supplies.

But in next year's trade, will the furs paid by Avarosa still be redundant materials?

Ash knew very well that the answer was no.

Even as the largest tribe in West Freljord, the amount of supplies accumulated by the Avarosa Tribe is actually quite limited. One or two years is fine. If trade continues, the Avarosa Tribe will sooner or later be unable to pay enough. fur!

Ash wasn't very good at math, but she was certain that the fur of the Erniuk and Jukal calves that had survived the weaning period because of oats was not enough to replace the oats that fed them.

If he wanted to maintain trade, and if he wanted Enuk and Jukal of the Avarosa tribe to be able to survive the weaning period smoothly, Ashe had to find more supplies to trade with the Forsbarrow people.

This problem was placed on the Winter's Claw tribe, and Sejuani's response was to plunder.

For Ai Xi, her choice is to use cigarettes and tea.

Use tobacco and tea leaves in exchange for excess furs from other tribes, and then trade with the Forsbarrow people - this may be the best method without bringing tribes to rob.

In the Freljord, indulgences always relieve people's spiritual emptiness.

Ash herself didn't like these hobbies. She didn't drink alcohol, wasn't interested in tobacco, and only drank tea lightly.

But she knew full well that the Freljordians needed this.

For many Freljord tribes, brewing wine is essential even if they face the risk of not having enough to eat during barren times, and tobacco and tea are always better than spirits that make people drunk and fight.

Hope everything goes well.

……………………

Ash was thinking about reselling and promoting tobacco and tea.

In the Sanjigla Plains, Sejuani was considering going out to grab another one this winter.

After a round of hunting, in the winter season, the Winter's Claw tribe once again returned to the Sanjigla Plain to repair. In the past year, the Winter's Claw swept a large area around the Sanjigla Plain, absorbing a large number of Elite warriors have joined the tribe, and the power of the entire tribe is quite astonishing. Even the ancient city of Laxtaq has heard about this tribe that claims to be the successor of Serelda.

However, despite their increasing fame, the lives of the Winter Claw people have not improved.

Sejuani is good at fighting, but knows nothing about the running of the tribe.

Take the battle last winter as an example: last winter's looting was not a failure in terms of combat, but from a business perspective, it was actually a loss.

Not many Winter's Claw warriors died in the battle, but Furnace's production was greatly affected. As a result, Winter's Claw obviously did not lose, and the life of Winter's Claw at the beginning of this year was obviously a lot harder.

The same was true for the subsequent raids. Many powerful warriors joined the Winter's Claw. However, the expansion of the Winter's Claw's territory was limited, and the supplies they grabbed were also limited. The expansion rate of the tribe did not match the rate of increase in the tribe's productivity. This directly led to Winter's Claw becoming more and more difficult to win.

If it continues, Winter's Claw may not be able to guarantee even the most basic food. This situation will undoubtedly shake Sejuani's prestige and even her rule.

Although she didn't care about the sporadic doubts on the surface, in fact, Sejuani was very aware of the trouble this wavering could bring. She replaced her mother and controlled the winter by winning the duel. claw, but she also knew very well that before she initiated the duel, her mother Kojiya had actually lost the support of her tribe.

Sejuani didn't want to be in the same predicament.

In her opinion, the best way to solve the problem that the rate of material plunder within the tribe cannot keep up with the rate of population expansion is to launch a war, a war that will be fought in winter and win a great victory!

Starting a war in winter will eliminate a large number of warriors who are not strong enough, while a winter raid can plunder a large amount of winter supplies, which can increase revenue and reduce expenditure, killing two birds with one stone.

So the question is, if Winter's Claw wants to start a war, who will it choose as the target of the war?

In Sejuani's opinion, if you want to launch a war in winter, there are two best targets, one is Avarosa and the other is Demacia.

The Avarosans were taken into consideration because Sejuani heard that their lives were getting more prosperous this year. In this case, the Avarosans must have hoarded a lot of good things in order to survive the winter.

In the battle last winter, Sejuani, who wanted to prove herself to her old friends, adopted a strategy of running thousands of miles away, hoping to directly capture Frost Harbor; but this year, her goal has been changed to a more realistic plunder. , and if it was just for plunder, then Ashe and her sparse battle group might not be enough to stop the Winter Claw tribe's troops.

As for the plunder of Demacia, it was entirely due to Silas's endless advocacy over the past year.

Now Sylas seems to have completely integrated into the Winter's Claw. In this year's raids and plunders, he has contributed a lot to the Winter's Claw, so as a reward for the warrior, Sejuani will usually be very Be open to Silas's suggestions.

As for Sejuani, Silas's biggest suggestion is to "go south and attack Mithril City."

According to Silas, when he came to Freljord from Demacia, he discovered a little-known trail. He took this road to leave Mithril City and enter Freljord. Erdjord Plains.

If the warriors of Winter's Claw quietly gathered and headed south through that road, the Demacians would be unprepared!

Since it is a robbery, it must be a picky robbery. No matter how rich Avarosa is, can it be richer than Mithril City?

Two thoughts quickly passed through her mind. Sejuani thought about it over and over again. After a while, she finally stood up.

"Go get Silas and see me."

Because she is the "Heir of Avarosa", Ashe can't be said to be loved by everyone in Freljord, but most tribes still treat her well.
