Chapter 42: 42: Good news
Coming out of Aslan’s room, Genalli walked one more on Billy Avenue. Billy Avenue was the central street of Billy City. Although it was already night, it had been brightly lit for a long time, showing its prosperity.
With the cool breeze blowing in the night, Generido quickly calmed down. After thinking about it again and again, he decided to help Aslan. He knew very well that this matter must cooperate with Aslan. His current limit is already there. It is impossible to obtain the Holy Spring of Elements by relying on its own strength.
Not to mention this time, if he operates well this time, his status in the teacher's eyes will be greatly improved, or it is really possible that he and Aslan will become another neutral faction under the teacher's command.
In public or private, he must help Aslan.
In the early morning of the next day, when the sky was still bright, Aslan took his knight guard and tens of thousands of catties back to Merlot.
It's not that he doesn't want to buy too much, but that he is relying on the ability of the Tianping Chamber of Commerce. It is not easy to be able to raise such a batch of food in a few days, and Aslan is not worried because it will not be long before he will go to Billy City, as long as he can solve it for a while. The need is enough.
When I went back, I didn't have the time when I came, but Aslan was still very dissatisfied with the bumpy road.
Great people in the past often said that if you want to get rich, you must first build a road.
"If we repair this road, how much money and manpower will it need?" Aslan muttered dissatisfied.
Arthur bit his head and said: "At least tens of thousands of gold coins, thousands of workers and one year."
Aslan nodded, just in front of Copeland Mountain.
"Do we have to go around Copeland Mountain every time we go back?" Aslan looked at Copeland Mountain, which is not too high, and asked curiously.
"It must be bypassed, regardless of the fact that Gulun Mountain is not high. The altitude is already close to 500 meters. Because the road is rugged, it is more time-consuming and laborious to walk around than to make a detour."
Arthur continued to explain that recently he discovered that the master's brain was very big, and he was suddenly worried whether Lord Lord would ask them to hollow out Copeland.
"Yeah!" Aslan nodded. In his previous life, he did not dig a tunnel in Gulun Mountain because his strength and economy did not allow him, but he was different in this life.
Backed by the Marquis of Medea, he has a huge group of magicians as the backing. He has full confidence in digging a tunnel in Copeland Mountain. By then, it will be a straight line from Merlot to Billy City, and the distance is only 800 kilometers. , Plus the convenience of driving on cement roads, you can go back and forth in one day.
Here, Aslan had to admit that the speed of war horses in another world, traveling thousands of miles every day is the standard equipment, those war horses with the blood of beasts or beasts, the speed can be doubled, or even more.
Aslan couldn't help laughing at the best horse with a speed of 300 kilometers per hour, and it was comparable to the Bugatti Veyron in his previous life.
When Aslan came back with more than a dozen food convoys, it caused a lot of sensation in Merlot. They didn't expect the Lord Lord to bring the food so soon, although at a glance it could be seen that there was not much food brought back. But it is also enough to support a period of time, especially some leisure hunters have begun to organize people to go to the forest to harvest those wild bracteo fruit, which has also increased a lot of food reserves for the warehouse.
The town of Merlot at this time can be said to be a city with one mind and one mind.
Aslan jumped off the horse, Wilshin and Essien hurried over.
"Lord Lord!"
"Yeah! Go in and say something." Aslan waved his hand and said.
There are reserved and solemn faces on both of them.
Entering Aslan's office, Aslan took off the belt around his waist and hung it on the hanger along with the sword. The noble robes on his body were also thrown on the back of the chair. This was satisfying to stretch out.
He really doesn't like the noble robes. Even if it is inconvenient to wear, it is also very troublesome to move. The most important thing is to wear it loosely and very uncomfortably. It is comfortable with the short-sleeved T-shirt that he wears now.
"You are looking for me in such a hurry, what's going on?" Aslan sat back to his original position, changed from the initial laziness, with sharp eyes, and asked seriously.
"The mayor Johnson of Max Village wants to see Lord Lord, and his subordinates think that Max Village wants to depend on Lord Lord and become your leader." Will Xin said with a smile on his face.
Maisi Village is the most powerful village in the Merlot area, not one of them.
With a population of over 3,000 people, it is not too much to say that it is a small town. The armed forces in the village are also very strong, and even the Kaimen Bandit Group dare not make any decisions.
Aslan immediately thought of the gray-haired old man, who was an intermediate magician.
In Billy City or nothing, after all, it is a magical sacred place in the province of Melox, but in other areas, it can be regarded as a party.
"Yes, Will believe you to arrange it. We must show our importance to Max Village." Aslan said with a smile.
If Maisi Village is conquered and the original population is added, the population of Melo Town will exceed 10,000.
This is a great event, and with the jewels of Max Village ahead, I believe those who hide in the poor mountains and remote areas of the Merlot area will slowly get the news.
Aslan is very clear about the number of people in the Melo area. When Aslan completely controlled the Melo area in his previous life, he even dispatched an army to conduct a census.
The total population is more than 500,000, and the people who later immigrated from other regions are not included in this.
"Essien, what good news do you want to tell me!" Aslan asked in a good mood.
"Yes! Lord Lord, do you remember that Scarfaced Robber? He is willing to lead his men to surrender, and he is willing to persuade the people in the cottage to surrender." Essien also said with pride.
"Oh!" Aslan naturally knew about the Kaimen Bandit Group's cottage. When he defeated the Kaimen Bandit Band in his previous life, he also annexed the cottage's population.
There are 6,000 old, young, children, women and children in Kaimen Bandit's cottage. Among them, the ratio of women to children accounts for four-fifths. Almost every robber can be assigned a daughter-in-law. There are even more powerful professionals. A wife.
At that time, Lancelot still laughed at whether the bandits of the Kaimen Bandit Group were the ones who could not marry a wife.
Seeing Aslan's silence, Essien thought that Aslan didn't want to accept the unstable factors of the Kaimen Bandit Bandit, he suddenly became a little anxious.
"Lord Lord! Although those people are the family members of the bandits, many of them are robbed. They don't have any sense of belonging to the bandit group, and many even have hatred. There is no need to worry about them having different intentions."
Hearing Essien’s explanation, Aslan couldn’t help laughing. He was just considering how many people there are in the Kaimen Bandit's cottage. After all, the last time he estimated the number of Kaimen Bandit Bands incorrectly, this time he could I don't want to make such a mistake again.
