Otherworld Nation Founding Chronicles

"Isn't that pretty advanced?"

About four months after the war had begun and the construction of the city had resumed, I visited the city.

Construction seems to be going well, thanks to the introduction of 10,000 Gaulian slaves.

"Yes. I think it will be completed in two years and will function as a capital in four years."

The Greek architect Ismare laughed happily.

It would be a pleasure for Ismail to finish the construction of the capital as soon as possible.

"By the way, one thing you care about"

"What? What?"

"I'm building a road ... I'm letting soldiers do it, right?"

"Oh ... that's a convenience."

Participation in the war and payment of taxes are recognized by the Adernians as a duty of the people.

And roads are important military facilities.

In other words, building a road is synonymous with participating in war.

I was recruiting about 2,000 people and making roads.

The soldiers ... looked convinced, but somehow dissatisfied.

Well, we provide meals, and there is no hindrance to agriculture because of a one-month shift.

It will take turns to have all the people build the road.

In doing so, they hit civilians with civil work.

Civil engineering is an essential technology for war.

Siege battles and base construction are both civil works.

Perhaps the time you are digging is longer than the time you are fighting the enemy.

"When it's time, you can get a weapon and go out. No problem. If you have a road, you will move faster."

"But the danger of being attacked by the enemy will increase?"

"It's a pro and a con."

I can only say that there is no help for it.

But the attack is the greatest defense.

There is no problem if you attack before the enemy attacks.

"Do you need anything?"

"Yes ... I want to sculpture temples and palaces ... Would you invite a Christian engineer?"

"Okay, let's get some flexibility."

Sculptor or ...

Well, you need it ...

"Look, good, good."

"Ungh ah ah, ungh ah!"

Anks crying in my arms.

Why? Is your stomach declining?

Or a poop?

"Almus ... lend me"

I was in trouble and gave Ankus to Tetra.

Tetra lifts Ankus and gently rocks to ease.

"..."

I stopped crying.

What a sad.

"Do you hate me?"

"What if I have more time to interact?"

That's right ...

Maybe you don't think you're an adult.

Alright, let's increase the time to interact.

Flirt with Anks more.

"Ankus cry a lot. I think he's fine and fine. Fiona is a little too mature ..."

Yulia mutters.

By the way, Fiona is sleeping in another room.

Well, even if I say that I'm calm, I cry when I hold it.

After all it is strange.

Why?

"Crying at night in May ..."

"Haha ... I'm really glad I had a servant. I would have been mentally ill if I wasn't there."

Julia and Tetra grinned.

Both Yulia and Tetra are king princesses.

He also participates in raising children, but does not take care of everything.

If you are crying at night, you are hiring a servant to respond.

It's a story I often hear in Japan, such as when a child crying at night and the family collapses ...

I think it was good for that.

"Your Majesty. Your order is ready."

"Oh, come in."

I allowed Alice in and out.

Alice is now working as a servant at the Royal Palace.

It was because I was very good at cleaning and washing dishes, and I wanted to keep it within my reach.

No assassination or intelligence orders were issued.

Even if you force it, it will only be Aldo's second dance.

For now, I'm just happy to keep it at hand.

Alice brought a brown liquid.

There is a fragrant smell.

"What's this?"

"tea?"

Julia and Tetra grabbed a glass cup and leaned mysteriously.

Well, look at what.

I did my best to complete it.

"Hm ... not bad taste"

"It's delicious. What do you say?"

"It's barley tea. The raw material is barley."

They frowned at my words.

Tetra stops drinking, and she expresses the expression that Julia drank something uncomfortable.

"I don't like it?"

Adernians hate barley.

For Adernians, barley is a poor grain that the poor, slaves and horses eat.

Change the meal to barley as a punishment in the army ...

That is true.

Well, if you compare in Japan ...

Is it a canned cat?

Humans can eat it.

Such food.

"Hey, why did you drink silently?"

"Because you never drink barley ingredients"

I somehow calm the grumpy Yulia.

I understand my feelings.

If I was told that I was a sea chicken and could eat a canned cat. I come.

"I don't like the likes and dislikes. Look at the tetra! You're drinking!"

Tetra was said to be made from barley, and once released his mouth, he started drinking again.

Yulia makes a slightly surprised look.

"Well, I used to eat barley bread in the past."

"Yes, I ate a lot when I was in the forest of Romania!"

I didn't have enough food to complain about wheat and barley at that time.

If everyone was good enough to eat, they would eat without complaining.

"Did you understand Yulia, too?

"Well, it's delicious, but ..."

Yulia seems unconvinced.

Is there any help if it is no good?

"I want to spread this, what do you think?"

"It's impossible"

That's right

Adernians know how to make beer, but never drink beer.

Beer is barley because it is a low quality liquor.

I thought it would be a new industry if it went well ...

I want another promising industry besides drugs.

"So what about perfume?"

"perfume?"

"I specialize in medicinal herbs ... I'm familiar with the smell of flowers in that regard. I know what kind of smell can be combined with what."

Julia tells her to wait for a moment and leaves the room.

After a while, I brought a parchment, papyrus and a bunch of paper.

"The results of the research are written here.

"Well, that's terrible .... well, why not try making it on my private land? I'd like to sell it in a big way depending on the reputation."

"Good, if it helps Almus"

Julia smiled holding her research material in her chest.

"Griffon, can you give me the Romanian Forest?"

I visited Griffon-san with permission to develop the Romanian forest.

Explain the benefits of bringing the Romanian Forest under control.

Griffon showed disappointment.

"If you don't enter my territory, you're more likely to be. It's unpleasant."

"I'll do something about it."

The Romania Forest is about 40 km in radius.

And Griffon's territory is within a 15 km radius.

Therefore, it is forbidden to enter the area of twenty kilometers.

I'm going to make a no-entry sign with a sense of ten meters.

I really want to enclose it with a wooden fence ...

I will not do it because it will affect the forest ecosystem.

"How about that? In addition, I'm going to get Julia to put a barrier to pay. I'll tell the pioneers too."

"Well, but ..."

"If the pioneering succeeds, we will give a part of the wealth obtained to Griffon. Alcohol! Fat sheep and pigs!"

I manage to fish with food.

Griffon thinks with a difficult face.

"Well, good."

"Thank you!!"

As expected, Griffon.

A generous person.

"But people who enter the territory are not going to forgive. They will kill mercilessly and have the tribute increased by the number of people who entered.

"I know"

It's not a big deal for tribute.

Anyone who enters the territory without listening to stillness may die.

There was no problem at all.

"Then I'm this."

"Oh, do your best."

I thanked Griffon again and left.

"It's peace ..."

I look at the garden while drinking barley tea.

Due to my complaint, 70% of the plants growing in the garden have been turned into ornamental.

The remaining 30% are drugs and medicinal herbs.

Still peace.

Fiscal reforms are on track and centralization is steadily progressing.

Just a month ago, all the territories of the Rosais clan were returned.

Now, the power of the central government has naturally gathered as the Rosais clan gathered from the provinces to the centre.

There is no need for me to gather power.

All that is needed is for power to gather in the center.

The central command reaches the provinces and can form an army immediately.

That is ideal.

And that ideal is also being realized.

It seems that Bartolo's military reform is also progressing steadily, and he wants to put it into actual battles soon and try it out.

But there is no war.

Peace.

At least, I don't intend to go to war for a year, and I won't be at war for a year.

A few weeks later, you will receive compensation from the Kingdom of Roselle.

Most of the reparations will be used to reward soldiers and royals for their hard work in the war.

Money comes back in taxes, so it's a lot better than paying on land.

Oh, peace.

So a year is going well ...

"Your Majesty !!!!! It's hard !!!! It seems that a rebellion of commoners has occurred on the territory of the clan of the Clan of As!"

Apparently, a year has not passed smoothly.
