Noble Emblem
497 Still a population problem
From the haggard expression on the Winter Wolf Saint's face at this time, Beta could naturally tell that she had been under a lot of pressure recently. Women all love beauty, especially beauties, and they cherish their appearance even more. But now the Winter Wolf Saint has no luster, her face is gloomy, and her appearance is greatly compromised.
This is the expression of the Winter Wolf Saint. She is very ashamed. Last month she was saying that the other party would regret it, but now she is begging for others. If the burden of the survival of the race was not on her shoulders, she would not abuse herself like this. self-esteem.
"Okay, Your Excellency, you win." The Winter Wolf Saint did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "It was my fault a month ago. Now I want to ask you, if we pay for our own food and are self-reliant, will it be okay?" It allows us to have a roof over our heads.”
Beta looked at the Winter Wolf Saint for a while. After all, the Frostwolf clan was once the race protected by Winter Wolf Loya, and Loya was her cousin-in-law. She also gave him a godhead. She didn’t look at the monk’s face to see the Buddha’s face. , as long as the other party does not go too far, it is appropriate to take care of him.
"As long as we don't have any deep grudge against me, I don't like to take advantage of others' danger, so you can rest assured." Beta tapped the quill on the table and continued: "The Frostwolf clan can live as temporary citizens. There is a lot of land in my city, and you can rent it at low prices, or even cultivate the land and use it until you leave."
This benefit is very good. Compared with the conditions offered by other forces, it is as conscientious as a saint. But the Winter Wolf Saint knows one thing. There is no "hate" for no reason in this world, and there is no "love" for no reason. , behind the seemingly excellent treatment, there is deep use and malice. Her experiences in the past month have confirmed this.
She suppressed her excitement and said calmly: "It sounds great, but what do we need to pay?"
"Like the ordinary citizens of Waking City, abide by the laws we set and pay taxes normally." Beta said slowly: "You can also do what ordinary citizens can do. Of course, you can't do what ordinary citizens can't do."
At this time, the Winter Wolf Saint was almost overjoyed. This was the best answer she had received in a month. Although it was far from her initial expectations, a fair environment was already a rare luxury for the current Frostwolf clan.
But she still held back her boiling mood and continued to ask: "Then what price do I need to pay?"
"Madam, do you want me to make any other requests?" Beta said with a teasing look on his face: "Although I also want to do this, it is inconsistent with my philosophy of doing things. I know that people from your Frostwolf clan like to fight with each other. To show strength. So here, I must emphasize again, restrain your people and strictly abide by the laws of our Waking City, otherwise... In addition, you can ask Emma about the laws of this city, she There is a Torah from Watkins."
"I understand!" The Winter Wolf Saint stood up, looked at Beta with deep eyes, and continued after a moment: "In one month, more than 2,000 members of the Frostwolf Clan will all move here, and they will also be here. Please set aside a piece of land in advance for our use.”
Beta nodded.
The Winter Wolf Saint said no more and turned to leave. Compared with the heavy demeanor when she arrived, the Winter Wolf Saint looked much more relaxed and cheerful at this moment.
After the Winter Wolf Saint left, Beta called Amanda and said to her: "Find a way to have the caravan go to a nearby city to buy some weapons and armor, and then transport them to the Frost Star Kingdom to sell. I will give you a There is a map showing a secret smuggling route that can safely lead to Frost Star Country."
Amanda's eyes lit up: "Is there going to be a civil war in the Frost Star Kingdom?"
"It's just a small-scale conflict, and I think the conflict will subside within two or three months. But as long as there is war, there will be homeless people and prisoners, and there must be talents among them." Beta drew a picture on the table. He opened the map and said: "Bringing weapons and armor there is just a prank, and making money is only a secondary purpose. Your mission is to bring back those talents in distress in Frost Star Kingdom."
Amanda's eyes widened: "Should I go there too?"
"Yes." Beta nodded and said: "Talent is also a business. We in Waking City are currently very short of talents, so you have to go there in person, check it yourself, and try to bring as many people back as possible. The weapons and armor sold are Funding for your activities.”
Amanda was a little reluctant: "But it's so cold there. If you stay there for a long time, your skin will crack. Also, since there's a war there, it must be very dangerous."
"Don't worry, I will strengthen the caravan's escort force. If the number of talents you bring back exceeds fifty, I will personally pay for your gold coin sacrifice and at least upgrade you to one level. How about that?"
Amanda then smiled brightly: "Yes, deal, generous master."
The next day, Amanda set off with her caravan in great force.
A week later, the first pub appeared in the central business district of Waking City.
The owner of the tavern was built by one of the refugees Emma brought. The wine brewed in this tavern is terrible, and the side dishes are not delicious, but because it is the only tavern in Watkin City, its business is quite good.
Beta is happy to see this happen.
Two weeks later, a foreign bard appeared in the tavern. The bard sang in the tavern and earned a lot of tips. He stayed for another night and was invited by Beta's people the next day. In the city lord's mansion.
At Beta's request, the bard told some recent events. For example, the Desert Kingdom is currently in a serious civil war. The Yellow Sand Sect and the White Sand Sect are beating each other until their brains come out.
The country of mountains and forests was destroyed by the bear tribe.
There are also elves choosing a new queen and so on.
In fact, as long as Beta transmits this information, he can inquire about it in other cities. He asked the bard to come here because he actually wanted to entrust him with other things.
A cloth bag containing ten gold coins was thrown in front of the bard.
Beta sat on the high platform and looked at the bard condescendingly: "After you go out, you will compose a song about what you saw in the wetland and spread it to the world. This is your reward. In addition, tell your audience that we in Waking City have agricultural taxes. , only 40%, for the first 10,000 residents who defected, we gave them free houses and fields, one acre per person.”
The bard opened his eyes wide, and after a while he asked in a dumb voice: "Your Excellency, the great city lord, may my family and I also defect to this beautiful city?"
"We welcome everyone who is willing to abide by the laws of this city, regardless of age or sex." Beta continued with a smile: "You can also introduce your peers. I need more bards who are willing to promote this city for me."
The bard bowed deeply: "As you wish, my great city lord, your highness."
