Chapter 913: Chapter 571: Distant Friendship and Close Attack

Was Gaven bluffing?

Based on their understanding of Gaven over this period, not only was he not bluffing, but it was even probable that his descriptions were modest. The annual outputs of these two cities could be higher than his estimates, as they were in a continuous state of development. This Monster Tribe, in terms of recruiting population, had advantages that humans did not possess.

Wealth moves hearts.

Such terrifying outputs, once exposed, would certainly attract countless covetous eyes.

Especially for cities like those on the Giant Dragon Coast and the Dark Forces that were driven by money might ally again to march towards the Giant Plains and those two cities, which was not an impossibility.

Having a "nail" secured here would indeed be very beneficial for them, and if they could use this opportunity to expand and grow stronger, then that would be even more favorable.

"Still the same old principle, distant friendships and close attacks. Our territories are too far apart, hence, we share many common points of interest. Not to delve into other matters, as long as you can establish a port capable of handling large merchant ships in either Ilip or Pross, I guarantee you could make a fortune."

Gaven broke down the contents of the plan, discussing it intricately. "Ilip and Pross haven’t developed in the past mainly due to the geographical disadvantages and the lack of a core industry.

With the Conqueror Path, it will change; they will become the nearest ports to this route.

I will instruct my men to fully utilize the remaining five days to overhaul the roads from Efanso to the two towns and between the towns themselves to meet the standards of the Conqueror Path.

If you find constructing a port by yourselves to be challenging, we can co-build it, but I want half of the ownership. Half of the port’s future income shall belong to me."

Though it was a long-term strategy, Gaven was sure to reap the benefits he sought, and had it not been for the fury he stirred on the Giant Dragon Coast, with the Dark Forces refusing to let them settle, Gaven might have directly sent his men to govern here.

"We’ll proceed with expert evaluations before acting, as building a port isn’t simply a matter of depth; it demands specific requirements concerning the surrounding environment, ocean currents, and weather." Being a native of Giant Dragon Coast, Yeshandalah was far more knowledgeable about ports than Gaven, "It’s not necessary to choose between the two towns; if there is a suitable area nearby, we might even consider relocating the towns."

Unbeknownst to her, Gaven’s influence had already shaped Yeshandalah’s thinking, subtly changing the language from ’you and I’ to ’we’.

"Smart," said Gaven, giving Yeshandalah a thumbs-up, "Things are inanimate; people are not. If things don’t suit the people, we adapt the things to fit people. When the time comes, we’ll opt for whichever option costs less."

"Lord Baron, are you complimenting me or mocking me?" Yeshandalah couldn’t help but smile wryly, "You’ve even prepared the roads for us. If we fail to fully utilize this opportunity, wouldn’t that make us no better than fools? I believe it won’t be long before you’d dismiss us from our position."

"Ha ha..." Gaven laughed, "Talking with smart people is simple. Besides, there are two other matters that I need to clarify separately."

"Please, Lord Baron."

"One is regarding the original city hall, which is no ordinary building but has been transformed by Arms into a Mage Tower. Now integrated with my Special Ability, it cannot be returned. I will establish a special guild here for various trade deals. As compensation, choose another location, and I’ll have someone build a new city hall for you at no cost." In this matter, Gaven said only half of what he intended.

The original city hall was far more than just a subdivision of a guild; it would transform into a significant transit hub for resources.

The Shadow material dragging function of the Weizemay Manor and Mesnoel Ruler’s Tower was, naturally, also possessed by it.

Transporting resources from Efanso to Blood Gorge City and Dwarf Statue City would halve the distance compared to transporting them from Mesnoel.

It was already functioning, secretly dragging Tower War Chariots and flank vehicles from Mesnoel to this side.

These two types of War Chariots had withstood the trials and tribulations of war, proving their worth in both siege and open-field battles.

A premeditated war awaited them in the Goblin Margins, facing a Monster Tribe that aimed to overcome by sheer numbers, naturally necessitating an increase in their defense. When they departed from Efanso, there would be at least two hundred Tower War Chariots, starting from a hundred.

"This is indeed Baron’s war booty, Your Lordship can dispose of it as you wish. As for the construction of a new city hall, we thank you in advance," Yeshandalah did not refuse Gaven’s gracious offer.

Taking over a city, particularly one that had been ruled by a Necromancer for over a decade, was a very complicated task. Many aspects needed revitalizing, and their capabilities were limited; they had to rely on Gaven for several constructions, which likely involved more than just the city hall.

"The second matter is about the Efanso Citizens joining the Conqueror Army. I am aware that their numbers are somewhat large, but from another perspective, this isn’t entirely a bad thing," Gaven paused thoughtfully.

The number of Efanso Citizens joining the Conqueror Army wasn’t just somewhat large; it was alarmingly high.
