Lord of Arcane

Chapter 611 Delaying the arrival of new citizens

Fearing that the drow might attack at any time, the Silverleaf family had already started to pack up their belongings before receiving a response from the Savile leader, and speeded up again after receiving the news from Mrs. Patty.

But such a huge family business could not be dealt with immediately. Until the third day after the Midsummer Festival, there were still many family properties in Sif City that had not been dealt with.

However, the patriarch Orepus was unwilling to delay any longer, and began to let the clansmen go to Conifera City in batches, the last batch of which was led by his father and family elder O'Brien.

If it was someone else, Orepus would not be willing to waste time at such a critical moment, but if it was his father, he still took as much time as possible to find him before his father left, exhorting :

"There are often human mages in Conifera City. Father must not conflict with them. The matter in Sif City will probably take three or four days to settle. I will join you at that time."

"I understand, you have to be careful, and don't let the wind leak." O'Brien reminded.

Orepus nodded and watched his father go away. In fact, it is not so easy not to leak the news. Didn't he just know the news from the Yuehen family?

The other families in Sif City should have received some rumors more or less. What he can do now is to find a way to quickly dispose of the family property, whether it is mortgaged or sold, and exchange it with easy-to-carry hard currency as much as possible.

Orepus decided to stay for a maximum of three more days. After three days, he had to leave regardless of whether the treatment was complete or not. This was the shortest time for family members on the border of Nether.

In fact, if the Yuehen family had not left long ago, but if the two families transferred their assets at the same time, perhaps Sif City would not be as peaceful as it is now.

But even so, Orepus was still keenly aware of the undercurrents under the calm. Today, when he was selling the family property to the chamber of commerce in the city, he was asked openly and secretly what happened.

Orepus used the excuse of offending the big shots in Cormansol, and got away with it, but as long as he was still in Sif City, the temptation would not stop, and he had to be vigilant at all times.

From the moment he made the decision to escape from Sif City, no matter whether Drow came here in the end, Sif City was destined to no longer be his home. Thinking of this, Orepus was full of sadness.

Suddenly, Orepus' face changed, and he quickly adjusted his mood. After returning to his usual calm appearance, he felt that there was nothing unusual, and then walked slowly towards the Sif City Council.

Just now, after the Moonscar family left, the new speaker asked him to go to the parliament for questioning. Orepus knew that he had to go there to delay the transfer of the clan as much as possible.

If it goes well, it may be possible to dispose of the remaining unprocessed industries all at once.

……

Daxialing, Linshui Village.

On the evening of the third day after the Midsummer Festival, during a routine inspection by the riverside patrol team of Linshui Village, they found a fleet of ships heading south along the Wolfburg River, and they could reach the dock of Linshui Village in almost a moment.

After carefully identifying the flag hanging on the mast, a patrol member immediately ran towards the altar square, shouting loudly while running:

"Lord Layton, the fleet led by Hibden is coming!"

In the temporary office on the east side of the altar square, Leiden was leading two clerks to sort out the documents and volumes related to the three newly established departments. When he heard the voice outside, he immediately put down the work he was doing. Work, gave the order to the clerk:

"Go and inform Director Jia Ke of the [Regional Resettlement Department] and ask him to send someone to the pier to prepare to receive new residents! Also, notify Director Kaide of the [Logistics Department] and ask him to prepare food and water immediately."

After speaking, Layton immediately got up again, went outside the house, stopped the patrol members who were about to charge in, and asked, "Are you sure it's the fleet led by Hibden?"

The team member swallowed subconsciously, and replied a little nervously: "My lord, I'm sure, except for me, everyone else has also seen the flag of the anchor staff emblem hoisted by that fleet."

"Understood, you go back to the dock!"

After speaking, Layton directly dropped the team member and walked towards the lord's villa in the east.

……

After being notified by the guard Norman, Layton saw the lord who was writing and scribbling on a piece of paper in the study. After saluting, he reported, "My lord, the fleet led by Hiboden is here."

"Oh? Belleira's people are finally here!"

The movements in Xia Duo's hands paused, and then he finished the last stroke. After that, he got up and put away the design sketches of the magic printing machine scattered on the desk, and looked at Layton:

"Come on, come with me to the pier!"

Naturally, Layton would not refuse, and immediately agreed: "Yes, my lord!"

……

When Xia Duo and Layton came to the pier together, the fleet was close enough to see the faces of the crew members on the deck, but approaching the pier, the fleet was slowing down, and at the same time, a crew member was shouting loudly, Docking signal.

Of course, Xia Duo came here not to look at the fleet, but to check how the newly established [Regional Resettlement Department] is doing, accepting and resettling new residents. The territory has done this several times in the past, and it can be regarded as having mature experience. .

However, Layton was in charge at that time, and now that there is a newcomer, I don't know if there will be any troubles.And he, as the lord, stands here, and can also be taken care of by Jaco at critical moments.

Fortunately, the worst did not happen. As the fleet docked, the reception team arranged by Jaco carried out the reception of the new citizens in an orderly manner. Although it was a bit hectic at the beginning, it became more and more proficient afterward.

Until all the new citizens were registered, there was no trouble.

Xia Duo paid attention to Jacco's movements all the way, and he was very satisfied with this, so he couldn't help saying to Layton: "This Jacco is really talented!"

"It all depends on the adults giving him the opportunity to play!"

"Ha ha!"

Xia Duo knew that Leiden was not good at flattering, or that Leiden was flattering every word, but he was still very happy, because what Leiden said was the truth, if there was no Xia Duo, Jaco should still be in Savile Port at this moment The dock is anti-big bag too!
After laughing, Xia Duo asked again: "Is there enough food in the cafeteria?"

"That's enough, my lord. Now the cafeteria has to steam nearly a thousand steamed buns every day. The citizens can't finish it. There can be a lot more. It will not be a problem for the new citizens to spend tonight."

"Ok!"

Xia Duo nodded slightly. He looked at the new citizens who had received food from the cafeteria not far away and were heading to their new homes and preparing to take root. Suddenly, a burst of fire ignited in his heart. These are his people!
