Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage
Chapter 253 Battlefield (7)
Dominaria City, Port.
A fleet of ten merchant ships docked on the pier, and then groups of half-elf refugees walked down one by one, supporting the elderly and the young.
Since they board the ship as a family unit, even if the young adults are not around, they will not be left unattended, and there are two or three elf goddess priests on each ship who are responsible for comfort and treatment. Therefore, regardless of their physical condition, these refugees Still, his mental outlook looks pretty good.
After a boatload of people disembarked, the priest of the local elf goddess came forward to lead them to the place where they lived. An official and ten city guards were sent to the port to follow them to deal with emergencies.
After all, there were only more than 200 people on board the boat. Before disembarking, the pastor repeatedly told them to just follow along, so no trouble occurred.
The people in the city faced the arrival of these half-elf refugees calmly. After all, this is a port city. What kind of people have not been seen coming from the south to the north? Besides, many of them were refugees like them a year or two ago. .
They went to a newly built city. The main road was in the shape of a cross, and other roads were horizontal and vertical. The temple, market, police station, and garden were in the middle, and were surrounded by residential buildings.
There were rows of ten houses, each row separated by a road for a carriage. All the houses have the same wooden two-story structure. There is a small yard behind the gate facing the street. Next to the yard wall is the backyard of another row of houses.
It can be understood that twenty houses back to back form a rectangular area surrounded by roads.
It probably looks like this, except that the house is made of wood except for the chimney.
People in a village have been arranged together, and your original neighbors still live next door to you. Each house is the same. The pastor who leads the team registers the house number and the name of the resident, and it is considered assigned.
This living condition is already at the level of high-end civilian areas in capitals of various countries. There is no problem in living in one house for seven or eight people. You must know that many of them slept on the street before coming here.
After all, they were fleeing. Although these half-elf refugees came in large and small bags, they could not bring much with them, and food was never allowed to be taken away. However, the house has simple furniture such as beds, tables, chairs, shelves, etc., and enough daily necessities such as food and vegetables are stored for a week.
With big houses and food, the refugees who came from afar and didn't know their future immediately felt relieved.
After everyone was settled, the priests who were originally in charge of each village and were now in charge of each neighborhood gathered people together and held a prayer ceremony in the square in front of the temple.
Although the half-elves are far away from their homeland, they have big houses to live in and plenty of food. All thanks to the great elf goddess. Thinking of the ferocity of the devil and the current stability, the believers naturally became devout.
Next came the repeated reading of the Stuart law.
Although the relocated half-elves live in a new urban area, they are not locked up. They can definitely walk around the city at will, and they must abide by local laws.
Fortunately, the laws of this era are simple, and half-elves are relatively knowledgeable as a long-lived race, so I understood them all after listening to them once.
Later, members of the Tulip Chamber of Commerce and other large and small chambers of commerce in the city drove over in carriages to recruit workers.
The territory is currently very short of people, not to mention farmers. It is impossible to cultivate a large amount of land for them to work in workshops. Although there are a large number of slaves, they can do manual labor like cutting down trees, mining, and quarrying as cattle and horses, but not the more complicated ones.
According to the prevailing rules in mainland China, slaves who have worked for three years must be released as civilians. Many have already arranged to study in workshops, but this takes time.
Now half of the Frankish Kingdom and half of the Iberian Kingdom's goods are provided by the Stewart Territory, which requires a lot of labor. Among these half-elf women, there are originally cobblers, shoemakers, tailors and other craftsmen. They can work immediately after being recruited into the workshop. Even those who don't have any skills can get started faster than those slaves who can be trained.
As for the elderly and children, they can always find something to do in such a big city.
Another advantage is that the pay for this group of refugees is low. Their basic food expenses are paid by the Viscount of Cantabria. Since they can't starve to death, the salary requirements will not be too high.
When the demonic disaster has passed and the various aristocrats have resumed production and no longer need to buy so many things from Stuart, it will be time for these people to return to Cantabria and avoid layoffs. A lord cannot let his subjects starve to death, but there is no need to care so much about other people's subjects.
Do you really think that Christine has good intentions and takes in refugees in vain? How can it be. These people are cheap labor.
For these half-elf refugees, although the uniformly distributed food can ensure that they will not die of hunger, it is just that they will not die of hunger. If they want to improve their lives, they have to make money.
This is the city of Dominaria, one of the most prosperous commercial cities on the continent. It's impossible for these half-elves not to be tempted by the high-quality and low-price products as long as they go shopping. If you want to eat well and live a better life, then make money.
The follow-up arrangements were also made in the same way, and everyone was very satisfied.
For the refugees, they were originally crowded all over the city. Although they could not freeze to death in the summer, they were far different from the big houses they lived in now. What’s more important is that I had no place to buy anything before, but now I can make money by working in a workshop. What’s not to be satisfied with?
For the Viscount of Cantabria, he only needs to pay a relatively low meal fee to evacuate the residents, which greatly reduces the pressure on the city of Astillero, so why not do this.
For the priests of the Elf Goddess, these refugees who have found jobs will inevitably come to the temple to donate when they have money, so why not encourage them to support themselves? These refugees who have made money are all grateful for the gift of the great goddess, and they are much more pious in their faith. Isn't this good?
Those nobles without fighting ability must be the first batch to evacuate to Dominaria City, and they are responsible for their own food, clothing, housing and transportation. There are various villas of different grades in the aristocratic area, and everyone can rent a satisfactory residence according to their status and financial resources.
Nobles have relatively high requirements for the quality of life. Dominaria City happens to have the most prosperous commercial street in the entire continent, so there will never be a situation where money cannot be spent.
The hereditary honorary Lord Victor Duran, who is in charge of territorial government affairs, suggested in the letter: Dear Lord Marquis, we must build more warehouses to store merchants’ supplies, and the city hall also needs to recruit more manpower. More importantly, you need to expand your treasury.
