Chapter 446

"I know, I know, let me think about how to write a letter." Ellie spread her palms.

"There's one more thing." Ellie spoke again.

Rand raised his eyebrows and looked at Ellie, and asked, "I won't take a vacation and it's over early, right?"

"Not counting," Ellie said, "a little thing."

Rand felt relieved.

"What's the matter?"

"The marriage of our allies, the king of the Frost Moon Kingdom, Marcus's son Adrian, has been revealed." Ellie introduced, "Simply put, his wife was stolen."

"Ah?" Rand was stunned.

Rand knew about Adrian's marriage. As an ally and "elder", Rand of course received an invitation.

Rand was ready to set out for the wedding, but he didn't expect Adrian's wife to be snatched away now.

"Marcus was furious about this and formed an elite unit to snatch it back, but there was a lack of a sufficiently agile commander to make up for the lack of special operations experience."

"Let Fenris take Tata with you. Bring more people, you can't lose your share."

Ellie nodded, saying that she understood everything.

"So do you have anything else to do? Are you going to come back to sleep today?"

"It's okay, come back to sleep today."

"Then let's go back to the lord's hall." Ellie knocked on the ground with the soles of her feet.

Surrounded by stone, walking architects, and laborers.

The upper sanctuary is now being renovated.

Since we want to completely change the external image of the Maternal God Sect, the transformation of the Holy Land is imperative.

Rand doesn't like these face-saving projects. In theory, these resources can be used to build more factories or more ships.

But now I have to do it.

Otherwise, when outsiders come to the sacred realm and see, if they don’t feel enough style, they may not be able to see the goddess of harvest and health in person.

This is nothing to do.

All Rand can do is ensure that the Goddess Church of Goddess will not become golden and shattered.

...

Now, it is the end of winter of the eighth year that Rand has come to this world. After this winter, it will be the 336th year of the Holy Calendar.

The fleet is still developing, and the industrial zone has gradually started due to the arrival of dwarf craftsmen.

The population of the sacred land is also expanding year by year, reaching 36,000.

This is mainly because the Marquis of the Bucks left him with many people, and the number of newborns in the Sanctuary is also increasing year by year.

Moreover, although the population of the sacred powers is generally younger, it is not too young. The reason is that the premature death rate has been greatly reduced.

In a world with poor hygiene conditions, it is very difficult for children to grow up.

This is true for the children of nobles, and the villagers in the village have to face countless threats as they grow up.

Hunger, wild beasts, cults, and soldiers will make it impossible for young people or young people to reach adulthood.

But after Rand came to this land, many things gradually improved.

Moreover, Rand cherishes the population very much and will not use it as a recruitment soldier. Therefore, although the villagers under the Duke of Yuexiang have a high rate of joining the army, the death rate is actually not high.

Rand also recruited a lot of herbalist training, which allowed many injured soldiers on the battlefield to survive.

These fighters may be disabled, but their survival rates will not be too low.

As for how disabled soldiers find employment, Rand has his own arrangements.

In short, as a "greedy" lord, even a disabled warrior will be arranged by him to work.

If you have a job, you will have a salary. If you have a salary, you will not be disliked by your family. Because of the awards and condolences awarded by the Sanctuary, it will also bring dignity to these people.

These well-cared soldiers will also be seen by countless people, thus gradually increasing the hearts of the people in the Duke of the Moon.

The reason why Rand regards wealth as his life is that many things need to be realized with coins and materials.

Of course, Rand will always warn himself that he must not put the cart before the horse.

And just as Rand was bored waiting for the final payments for the Kingdom of Poren and the Kingdom of Rence in the Lord's Hall of the upper sanctuary.

In the Elf Forest, an agile elves wearing a robe and a staff in their hands, set off with a convoy.

This elves is Vanilla's teacher, elves elder, field exploration expert, archaeologist, ancient alchemist, great wizard, black dragon wizard, great druid, scholar-Nidhog.

The last failure made him realize that the Duke of the Moon is a place where the Moon Prince seems to be relaxed but actually extremely strict.

Moreover, it is difficult to understand the garrison regulations, and I don’t know where the powerful people with exaggerated strength will emerge.

He Niedhog, but the elf elder, is an elves forest everywhere in the old man who is over 100 years old, and is also an outstanding existence in combat power.

But in a human duke's lord, he met a strong man who was equally matched or even stronger than him.

The rolling flames and the ruthless heat waves still remember them fresh.

There is also that centaur, which is theoretically impossible to be born at the top. Centaurs are monsters in the wild, without a real political form of settlement, and the knowledge inherited is mostly messy and missed.

In this case, relying on his wild instinct and innate talent, he can reach the elite level and is already a genius among monsters.

In a completely natural situation, it may take fifty or sixty years, or even one or two hundred years, to give birth to a superior monster in the entire main world and the dark underground area.

This is also the balance between monsters and humanoid species.

Monsters have a naturally powerful body, which far exceeds the racial advantages of humanoid creatures, and humanoid creatures also obtain the compensation, unity, wisdom, and possibilities of the "creator".

After returning to the Elf Forest, he went to investigate.

I discovered who was the strong old man who used fire that I met at the beginning.

The former Archbishop of the Torch Church, now the leader of the Torch Church's newborn sect, the Behemoth Killer, the controller of the Book of Red, Archbishop Kahn.

Bishop Kahn, who would actually meet such a person in that corner, and in theory, would actually cooperate with a monster.

This made everything that Duke of Moon was in charge of a mystery to Niedhog.

So he made a lot of preparations when he set out this time.

Last time he paid the ransom.

In fact, Niedhog was a little embarrassed to go over and make trouble again this time.

But for reason, his students were there after all, and he could not leave it alone, nor could the blood of the elf royal family be left out.

It would be fine if ordinary elves were kidnapped, but the blood of the elves royal family was left outside, and the inheritance of the elves' throne could never be truly stable.

In theory, the new Elf King ascended the throne requires all the members of the royal family who are qualified to inherit and witness it.

Although Vanilla's inheritance of the throne cannot be further behind, there is still a certain amount of power.

So Niedhog had to find a way to get the person back.

Although I have also explored the mysterious land of Duke Yuexian.

"Do you all know the rules?" Niedhog looked at the elves of the convoy.

There are real elf merchants here, but most of them are elf mages and elf rangers.

These elves all know the importance of this mission and are ready for sacrifice.

Although elves are captured by humans, they are "used" in most cases, rather than executed.

"At any cost, we must rescue Vanilla." Everyone said.

"Ahem, this is also important, but I'm not talking about this." Niedhog shook his head, "The point is not to kill."

"I have studied it and have personally experienced that the local lord attaches great importance to the lives of the territory. As long as you don't kill people, there is a high probability that you can pay the ransom, but if you kill people, you may stay there forever." Nie Dehog stressed.

"Did you understand?" Niedhog asked.

"I understand!" Although these elves who followed Niedhog were puzzled, they all decided to abide by the orders of this prestigious and powerful elves elder.

Chapter 473 Miss Karin without courage

"Oh, it's really deducted." Rand went to the Crescent Moon to take the final payment.

Rand's plan was effective in this poisonous plague incident.

However, due to the lack of manpower under Rand's command, after confirming that Rand's plan was really effective, the Kingdom of Poren and the Kingdom of Renza sent people to advance themselves. The later plague confrontation was basically completed by these two countries themselves. of.

For the Kingdom of Polen and the Kingdom of Renza, there is indeed a reason to withhold supplies.

Rand actually felt that these two countries had planned to not give it at all.

I guess I thought that although the Natural Disaster Clan was basically destroyed, the plague has not been completely over yet, so I was afraid of something unexpected or something that required Rand to do, so I didn’t really give the final payment.

Now that the final payment is deducted, it is not just that, but that the subsequent payment is still being shipped.

Of course, Rand knew very well that there would definitely be no follow-up for this subsequent delivery.

Rand was a lion who opened his mouth and asked for a lot of it.

Of course, these are within the scope of affordable between the two countries, but if you don’t give it, you will definitely not give it.

And there are very important points.

The Duke of the Moon and the Kingdom of Rence and the Kingdom of Poren are bordered by the Kingdom of Rence.

There are still many impacts that make Rand fatter.

Of course, Rand could not have suddenly developed into a behemoth where neither country is an opponent because of this little final payment.

But Rand had proved his own trickyness long ago.

Every time Land gets more supplies and population, it may make Land more difficult.

Rand's development speed is very difficult to understand.

Generally, even a small nobleman suddenly gains a large area of ​​territory by his luck, it will take several generations to slowly manage it.

Without governance experience and relevant knowledge, how can we manage a good territory?

Most people in this world can't manage more than a dozen people, let alone governing a territory.

Rand, on the contrary, not only has there been no trouble in his territory from the beginning to the present, but he can even open schools to attract other nobles to arrange for family children to study.

In fact, when Rand became the earl, many nobles were looking forward to Rand's governance of chaos, which was a joke.

The same is true for the Kingdom of Poron and the Kingdom of Rence.

But unfortunately, their expectations were dashed.

If this trend continues, it is obvious that if Rand continues to develop rapidly like this, there will be no trouble.

If Land had been developed for thirty or fifty years, it would have been hard to imagine how difficult it would have been to deal with at that time.

For this case.

Rand laughed it off, he would get it back if he had the chance in the future, and his purpose had actually been achieved.

As some of the nobles of the Kingdom of Poron and the Kingdom of Rence were guessed.

Rand introduced plans to these two southern powers to fight the plague. In addition to asking for money, people and things, he did have some, and he had ulterior motives.

This goal has been achieved.

Nothing else matters too much.

Now the Goddess of Harvest and Health will at least not be beaten into a cult all at once.

Therefore, after discovering that the final payment was deducted, Rand did not take his anger on these soldiers who delivered the goods.

Rand picked an older soldier and gave him a letter, asking him to go back to deliver the letter, which was a strong condemnation, nothing else.

As for the other delivery soldiers, as well as the horses, donkeys and chariots for delivery, they were naturally accepted by Rand.

In short, it was forced to accept it with a smile.

"What else is there next?" After accepting the final payment, Rand asked Olena beside him.
