Chapter 502: Chapter 502 Fast and Stable Kapala Island

The previous Island Master had been captured, and the new Island Master, Hillciss, assumed the position, with news spreading rapidly across the entire island.

In his own territory, Hillciss implemented his policies, but essentially, he still had to arrange them according to the framework set by Fang Jie. They couldn’t exceed this framework because they were never truly independent.

However, Hillciss wasn’t averse to it at all, because, in his eyes, the framework was perfect.

Had he obtained such a framework initially, he probably would have tried to reform domestically.

Unfortunately, even if he had obtained it, making changes would have been difficult. Reforms are always troublesome since they affect many people’s interests, and even the Royal Family couldn’t suppress it.

But now it was different because starting from scratch allowed unrestricted rebuilding during the reconstruction.

Fang Jie, however, felt a bit troubled by those who had been captured, unsure of how to deal with them.

"These people, what should we do with them? We certainly can’t just let them go; that would render everything we’ve done moot. Yet, a public tribunal seems inappropriate."

Indeed, Fang Jie had initially planned to use the public tribunal as a trump card against them.

But he soon realized something was off, as these people hadn’t committed outrageous acts.

The island was rich in resources, negating the need to overly exploit or oppress the common people. Although some did, it was within limits, rarely reaching a point where people would want them dead.

Especially the higher-ups, whose various policies were quite beneficial for the island’s development.

Many on the island now had a favorable impression of them. Even during their withdrawal, though they carried out actions that destroyed cities, aside from a few local cities, others didn’t sympathize with the victims.

Because they controlled the island so tightly, implementing various policies was quite easy.

And since the system involved different families taking turns ruling, no Island Master dared to overstep. Otherwise, they would provide other families a pretext for attack, so these people really hadn’t done much evil.

For this reason, a real public trial might even garner sympathy from the public.

"In that case, let’s leave it to Hillciss to solve; he’s been doing quite well so far."

Fang Jie waved his hand, "He’s doing so well that I don’t want to hand it to him. His idea is to dispose of these people entirely, not sparing a single one, but, there are just too many."

Even considering only the core members of those Nobles and major families, their number exceeded a hundred thousand.

If it were on the battlefield, Fang Jie wouldn’t mind slaughtering a hundred thousand people, but slaying so many prisoners made him hesitate. In this regard, Fang Jie wasn’t as ruthless as other rulers.

Qin Lan, hearing this number, also felt her heart soften.

"But letting them go directly would be even more troublesome."

Fang Jie considered, "Perhaps, we should first categorize them, deal with the troublemakers, and send the rest back to the Southern Territory, confining them in a secluded place. Maybe let them out after a few generations."

"Or, wait until we’ve taken control of the Sea Alliance before releasing them," Fang Jie added.

By then, even if they were released, they wouldn’t be able to do much, so Fang Jie wasn’t worried. However, for now, a bit of control was necessary. Temporary loss of freedom was much better than losing their lives.

"Let’s do it there then; I remember there’s a basin in that location, just guard the entrance, and they won’t be able to get out."

A few individuals escaping didn’t matter, just prevent large-scale exits.

"That’s settled then; let Hillciss cooperate a bit, keep the people he needs, and we’ll take the others," Fang Jie thought and then added, "Ensure the waterways are clear, don’t let any problem be discovered."

Transferring such a large number of people, especially prisoners, Fang Jie obviously didn’t want any trouble.

If it caught someone’s eye, exposing some Southern affairs would be very problematic.

Fang Jie was now trying to find ways that could elevate people to the Demigod Level. He had a few deeply trusted and loyal subordinates, whose loyalty he believed could be regained even if it dipped.

These people, if given the chance, would be elevated to the Demigod Level to stabilize his own Territory.

After receiving Fang Jie’s hint, Hillciss quickly arranged everything.

Within a few days, Hillciss’s Material Trading House expanded across the whole of Kapala Island. Officially, this was a proactive move by the Material Trading House, at least not directly associated with Hillciss.

The very hands-off approach by Hillciss also fueled many speculations.

But with the Material Trading Houses in place, the entire social system was thoroughly stabilized. Followed by some of the initiatives introduced by the Trading Houses, things started to roll out.

Various training camps and schools began to emerge, providing a boon for the residents of Kapala Island.

During the war, they hadn’t attacked them directly and afterwards, even provided benefits. Hillciss quickly won the hearts of the islanders. The initial resistance of the locals gradually dissipated.

Recently, a group of staunch loyalists to Hillciss had even emerged.

However, there might be some among them harboring other thoughts, so Hillciss couldn’t just contact them carelessly.

At the same time, the location became a testing ground for Fang Jie’s judiciaries. It was Hillciss who proposed this, voluntarily asking to start the trials there first.

After all, no matter what, wherever such experiments were conducted, those places tended to develop well.

This made many view the pilot programs as crucial, and this time it was just that Hillciss had snatched it.

As these experiments began, the daily lives of the people became increasingly stable. From top to bottom, nobody dared to stir trouble as past gray or black rules gradually came to light.

With batches of hooligans being dealt with, the public astonishingly found their lives to be more stable than before.

In less than half a month, Kapala Island had completely stabilized.

Even those from neighboring islands were shocked. Initially, if Kapala Island had stabilized within ten years, it would have been considered a testament to Hillciss’s effectiveness.

How they achieved this had become a much-studied topic across many islands.

But by then, the next move for Kapala Island had already begun.
