The princesses all come to help me move the bricks [Infrastructure]

The establishment of diplomatic relations between land and sea, or the opening of the sea country Atlanta, began with the friendship between Grand Duke Anna and Princess Ellie.

Later, after important figures including the eldest princess and the third princess helped to speak, it seemed very natural and normal to establish diplomatic relations with the Kingdom of Lore.

In terms of geographical location, Atlanta is just facing Oran or the west of the Kingdom of Lore. Although it is separated by an ocean and an open sea, it is relatively close on the whole.

Historically speaking, the Mermaid Kingdom has always kept in touch with several relatively fixed countries, among which Oran is one of the largest business partners, and both sides have a relatively good transaction history.

Judging from the investigation, the Lore Kingdom is currently the most powerful and prosperous state on the mainland, has a relatively healthy economic development, and can also afford trade needs.

From many perspectives, it is normal for Atlanta to choose the Kingdom of Lore.

As for Oran, who got a big advantage in this matter, it is purely due to Anna's side.

After inspecting the construction situation here in Oran, and paying close attention to the development of the five newly built dock areas, Anna feels that these mermaid nobles are still satisfied from their expressions.

After all, in order to be able to establish diplomatic relations with them, a new area was specially divided and built, and there were six preparatory areas to take over, which was enough to show that they paid attention to it, and it was even better than they originally expected.

As for the fact that Oran may not be as comprehensively developed as other cities at present, it can only be regarded as a small matter.

Although the mermaids in Atlanta seem to be living in luxury, this is from the perspective of the land. For them, those normal-sized pearls, corals, etc. are not enough to be considered very luxurious things. it's -

In a way, the life of underwater creatures is quite primitive.

Except for the royal family and nobles who really live in luxury, the lives of ordinary people, compared to the situation on land, it may not necessarily be said that the situation in Oran is better than that of Oran.

You know, the infrastructure of the first district has been built, and it looks like a fairly prosperous small town.

It only took more than a year to become such a prosperous and dazzling place.

Thinking about it, the fifth and sixth districts with updated plans should not be so bad.

The fact is also the same. After looking at the current appearance of the fifth district, although the degree of development is less than half, judging from the half that can be observed, the fifth district will be a good place for both business and life.

In addition, there are five districts where there are beautiful scenery, even if it is just a tourist attraction, you can have fun.

With the trade income from the ocean, Anna was finally able to start the construction process again for several of her regions.

The first follow-up is the industrial park in the fourth district, which has been established for a long time, followed by infrastructure for pollution treatment, garbage discharge, and more robust sewer treatment.

The latter requires a lot of money investment, and Anna hopes to rely on the territory's own revenue to achieve this greater convenience for the people.

With this business foundation, a lot of manpower, material and financial resources were attracted to Oran, and Anna hired more elites to carry out such a big project.

The construction of sewers is very important, and it is required by industry, commerce, and civil use, and it also concerns the handling of possible rainstorms and flood disasters.

When the matter was finalized, Anna and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

one year later.

Princess Maria's first large-scale concert in Oran.

At the scene, the environment is very lively.

Everyone's face is filled with irrepressible happiness.

The reality touched by music is visible to the naked eye.

Only songs that really touch the soul can give everyone an empathetic experience.

And Maria is someone who possesses such talent and a pure heart. She is already the most famous singer with a special status in the territory of Oran, and even in the entire Kingdom of Lore.

From the first show performance to now, she almost brought her friends to a small show a week and a big singing show a month. Maria is now almost the most popular person in the kingdom.

No princess is more famous than her, and no princess has a more touching singing than her.

And her choir has departed from the scope of the small-scale children's choir of the original choir, and has turned into a well-trained one that can cooperate well with Princess Maria, and has won the hearts of humans, mermaids, etc. Great teams of multiple races too.

In Oran, people don't need to worry about things like discrimination. On the contrary, everyone can find a way of life that suits them here.

Dwarves can undertake underground engineering, mining or brewing, opening small restaurants, etc.; orcs can engage in hunting, adventure activities, and work in other places; mermaids are the most popular stars in the only theater in Oran. You can also be a fashion model, etc...

The way of life of human beings is also diverse. As long as you have a craft, you can do anything. Hard work is also paid more abundantly. Efficiency speaks for itself. At the same time, even if you don’t have a craft, you can find a shop to do a small job or a small apprentice, although Apprentices are paid very little, but at any rate they can make do with food and lodging, and they can open their own shop after completing their studies.

According to statistics from Anna, at least [-] "qualification certificates" have been issued in Oran District alone. Whether it is handicrafts or other industries, there are already more than [-] regular shops that can operate normally after being audited. Including those large chambers of commerce or aristocratic groups for special cooperation.

This year, Anna was most satisfied with one other thing. At the end of last year, after she finally realized the profit of the territory, she also successfully separated the two areas of Anna's Lord's Mansion and Oran's territory management.

A large number of manpower has been recruited and trained. The administrative management of the Oran region already has its own relatively complete leadership team. At the same time, there are also a large number of engineering teams and other talents and teams that can be selected in the territory. There is no need for a lord anymore The government allocated its own manpower to help in the emergency.

Although it was a bit of a surprise, maybe because of the friendly communication with the elves before, Anna successfully entrusted the new task to the elf king——

They have a dedicated artisan spirit to create a set of requested Ana's legendary set equipment.

Of course, the rewards they charge are not cheap.

But in short, Anna's full set of legendary epic equipment is already being built, and she is very much looking forward to the final effect.

Now is the harvest festival time.

The atmosphere in the territory was very lively. Anna was walking on the road, and along the way, there were citizens who had just left the theater after listening to her sister Maria's singing. They greeted her warmly, and their words and deeds were full of respect.

This year's Small Harvest Festival was held briefly, but the Great Harvest Festival lasted until mid-October.

The one-year harvest in the territory is quite impressive, especially the autumn harvest. A lot of novel "equipment" has been put in, and the harvest in Anna's territory has been bumper across the board, and the benefits of planting have almost doubled.

In addition to traditional agricultural planting and animal husbandry, there are other industries that have also developed quite well.

During the Harvest Festival, everyone's wallets are bulging up visibly, and they are naturally willing to spend some money to enrich their spare time life.

Anna bought a vanilla and chocolate ice cream at the newly opened store on the roadside, and bought a large bag of candy from a familiar dessert shop, and gave them to the children playing in the territory along the way.

Most of the children who were still playing outside at this time were relatively young, and the older ones had all entered school, and the older ones were either apprentices or went to work directly, and the younger ones were still being taken care of by their parents.

There are also qualified "nursery schools" and "full nursery classes for children aged 5-8" in the territory, but not all families are eligible to send their children to school.

The school Anna set up is from the regular entrance at the age of 7 to graduation at the age of 14, a total of seven years, mainly to help "literacy", learning basic knowledge, with territorial financial subsidies, and relatively rich scholarships , incentives, etc., the requirement is that there is at least one child in the family of a regular citizen in the territory who is "compulsory to enroll", and there is no tuition fee for this enrolment.

That is to say, it is stipulated that if one family meets the age standard, at least one must be sent to the school, regardless of gender and race, and whoever reaches the age first will go to school first. Unless there is a special reason, it cannot cross a certain school. one child and send another younger child to school obligatoryly.

Each family currently only has one tuition-free enrollment quota, but there is no restriction on parents sending other children to school at their own expense. The tuition fee is not expensive, and it can be deducted with the contribution value of the territory. There are also various welfare measures. In fact, even Sending two or three children to school together is not very difficult for the official citizenship families in the territory at present.

At the beginning of the design, Anna has taken into account the tuition fees, family pressure and other issues.

There are also some assistance measures for needy households. Social welfare, especially assistance to needy people, has always been an aspect of Anna's consideration. From the beginning to the end, she never wanted to be a ruthless lord and abandon these people.

What worried her a little was that a year had passed, and although the elves remained open and their territory was developing well, they kept saying that there would be some kind of awakening of the gods and the ruins of the gods, but there was no movement.

"Anna!"

Just as she was thinking, Iliad walked towards her with the same smile on her face.

During this year, Iliad stayed by her side in a daze and never left. He seemed to have nothing else to do, nothing to do, not to mention the family behind him.

It seems that there is no goal. Anna, who was still vigilant at first, became very busy later, so she directly sent him to do something, and was surprised to find that no matter what it was, Iliad could do it very well——

The only downside is that, like Fox Sittle, he is the type who has no enthusiasm for work.

Iliad's work requires a "starting ceremony", just like a small animal, people can't send the cat owner to do things, if the job is done, it will take more effort to coax it.

Getting along with him is almost like this. Although he will not complain on the spot, he will do this thing, but after it is done, it will be the kind of "I'm unhappy", "I'm depressed" and "I need to be coaxed to get better" look.

After getting along for such a long time, Anna has figured it out!
