The Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich

Chauvin Dominion, a memorable name, where it all started.

Eight years ago, when I just returned to the Principality of Donglan, the entire Northland was in a state of hostility, and they were all on guard against me and the Kingdom of Lan. The only people who had a better relationship were probably Chauvin, who was a descendant of many mixed races and descendants of the Lan clan. dominion.

There, Dong Lan stepped onto the stage of history again, reached an alliance with the barbarians and the lords of the Dominion, and started the revival plan of the entire Lan clan.

There, a large amount of ore was transported from the mountains of the barbarian tribes, and a large amount of funds for food imports came from here. More than 40% of the ores and magic gems needed by the magic machinery were produced here. The original Northland survival chain was build up.

There, there is the only warm valley in the entire Northland. Although due to its small area, the amount of grain produced is not enough to supply a country, Emira and I have done countless experiments there, and finally the breeding of cold-resistant crops is completed there. The entire Northland is expected to achieve food self-sufficiency.

There, a large number of mixed races lived together, and they were once despised by various countries. With the integration of the Lan League in the entire Northland, as the strongest allies of the Donglan Principality, their status has also risen. With its unique geographical advantages, it has done a lot of cross-border and cross-regional trade. Today, it is already one of the wealthiest regions in the Northland.

The Lan people have not forgotten their closest ally during the poverty-stricken period. A large number of preferential policies and preferential policies are biased towards this small territory. The mining industry alone is enough to feed the residents of the dominion. With the spread of cold-resistant plants, the As a rare warm area in the Northland, the mountains and valleys are a bit too wasteful as a production area, and now they have become the most famous tourist resort and health resort in the entire Northland.

Well, God only knows if there is someone's advice behind this.

Every winter, a grand reconciliation day ceremony is held here, and the royal families and nobles of the northern countries will bring their families to participate... spend the winter here, um. The grand ceremony is nominally to celebrate the reconciliation of the countries and the establishment of the Lan League, but in fact the activities on the grand ceremony are hunting, song and dance performances, and hot springs. The serious celebrations are less than ten minutes of speeches by the leaders, followed by various cultural performances and entertainment activities .

And as the entire Northland enters a period of peace. Coming to Chauvin every year for the winter is not only a holiday for the royal family and nobles, but also an activity to deepen friendship and alliances. Over time, countries actually have unspoken rules for conducting diplomatic and business negotiations in Chauvin.

"...First disintegrate the opponent's hostility at the wine table. Then deepen the relationship in the hot spring, draw out the cards and fight at the negotiation table. This routine is really familiar."

The Chauvin Dominion, which is multi-racial and mixed-race, really has an advantage when it comes to tourism. The shops in the tourist area not only have elf handicrafts, orc totems, specialties such as animal bones, dwarf sculptures, and small knives. ,

It has everything you need, and it’s the first time I’ve come here because it’s imported products. Those who are familiar with this place know that these are all locally produced products.

Performances such as the singing and dancing art of the mixed-blood elves and the war dance of the orcs are also very common. The culture brought by the multi-race is also diverse. Although it is not as authentic as the place of origin, the mixed-race performers make the viewers feel more at ease. As for what romantic things happened afterwards... Anyway, this is not the city of innocence , Sleepless people can't control anything, and these gray industries that are not convenient to talk about have become a selling point of tourist cities.

In the past, the closer to the cold winter, the more lively this place became, and after the new year. The most comfortable and warm resorts will only be reserved for the royal families of various countries, but this year, the number of tourists has dropped by one-third.

reason? The jihad has begun, and the royal families and leaders of various countries are already busy and dizzy. In the first year of the jihad, the wars in the countries of the continent, their own war preparations, and food supplies, stability overwhelmed everything. Vacation? Or wait until next year.

The royal family didn't come and there were too few tourists? In fact, there are so many tourists every winter, how many of them really come to travel, and the royal family's children may really come to relax (the possibility is extremely low). But the nobles have missions to build relationships and negotiate deals with the royal family and the powerful nobles, and those rich businessmen who can’t get the royal family’s line have to seize the opportunity to build a good relationship with the nobles and find opportunities to let their children enter the upper class.

Of course, it is also because of the establishment of the Lan League that the royal families and nobles of various countries can sit together and build relationships calmly.

It is also because of the establishment of the Lan League that the political leaders of various countries need a neutral area to attract relations and make transactions, which has also indirectly created the rapid prosperity of the Chauvin Dominion. Of course, this is also related to the leadership of the Lan royal family. As for whether there is someone behind it. ...Anyway, every year the Chauvin Dominion will thank someone for a super red envelope, but it is a pity that every year it is "safeguarded" by Kaili, the head of the Donglan royal family, just like a primary school student who is kept by the elders for the new year's money...

This year's situation is special. The royal families and power factions of various countries have no time to talk nonsense. As a result, the top of the Northland Pyramid did not come, and a large area below it was missing. Many "tourists" who did not understand the facts are still regretting their visit.

This time the royal family only came about a quarter of the previous years, and the aristocratic class was only half, leaving more than half of the villa area and hot spring area empty, and it also caused a headache for Lord Chauvin, who spent a lot of effort in organizing the event. This time, it is estimated that he will lose money. .

But soon, he won't have to worry about the balance of operating income and expenditure this year, because he has to find a way to survive first...

"...Is there no news from the reinforcements yet? Has there been a response to the request for help?"

The Chauvin Dominion, which has been peaceful for so long, is actually threatened, or a group of wild beasts from nowhere, which is beyond the understanding of the Chauvin Lord Jagalor.

Eight years, the increasingly affluent life and Anton's environment have made him fatter and fatter. Back then, people secretly called him the Frog Prince Jagalore, but now others call him the Hippo King Jagalore behind his back.

"...Damn it, where did our guards go? Our chauvin's barbarian elf shooter brigade and the half-orc mad battle group? Now it's time for them to show their talents, but they are nowhere to be seen. Haven't they assembled yet? "

"Sorry, my lord, more than 70% of their fighters have been professional actors and dancers for several years. Many of them refused our compulsory summoning. Even if they responded to the summoning order, they still need time to find their own weapons and equipment..."

"Ridiculous! The soldier turned into a clown! This is a serious incident. I need to talk to my general. Which bastard actually did such a stupid thing!"

"..."

The government official who sent the order remained silent, but Jiagalore did not decide who would dare to make the decision on such a big matter. He still remembered that it was the "King Hippopotamus" in front of him who suppressed the decision made by the military.

He lost his temper indiscriminately, and after venting his anger, Gargalore calmed down a lot. He also wanted to think about the stupid things he did back then. At that time, he thought that the rise of Lanmeng was all right, and he took the tourist route here. With the two major lands as shields, the possibility of a civil war in the North is almost zero. Instead of raising useless soldiers, it is better to get more actors who are in short supply to earn gold coins.

The fighting power of other countries is several times stronger than that of eight years ago, and the financial income of the Chauvin Dominion is a hundred times that of eight years ago. The fighting power is probably less than one-fifth of eight years ago.

Not to mention that the nobles and lords are eager to make money, the soldiers below are also busy making money, the army is empty-paid, and the soldiers become businessmen and actors. What kind of combat power is there in such an army.

In a sense, the absence of wars and threats outside the country is the poison for a country's national defense to collapse.

The roar of beasts outside continued, and Jagalore was very anxious. Now is not the time to shirk responsibility, and if there is no way to do it, there is no place to spend so many gold coins.

His bulging eyes kept rolling, and he was in a daze looking at the villa area under the high wall. Not to mention, at this moment, he, who was famous for his cleverness in the past, really thought of a way, even if that way would cause endless troubles.

"Tell those foreign nobles, tell them the truth, we can no longer protect them, and let their bodyguards and mercenaries join the battle." (To be continued.)
