Chapter 51 I have contracted this land

Listen! Listen!

The plan would relocate 50,000 people from densely populated areas within the kingdom.

Oh my God, by that time, people from all the towns in the southeast, northwest, and northeast of Arathi Highlands will gather together. Except for those who come from the same place as a group, no one knows each other. Is there any better opportunity to confuse people than this?

There is no need to go through the trouble of asking Omar and Varokar to recruit soldiers everywhere and conceal the origins of the base's troops.

When the time comes, I will pull out more than 10,000 troops from the Red Flame Army, and I will say that they are recruited from the migrated population. Do you believe it? In another two years, the kingdom will continue to migrate people to the new town in the northeast, and I will pull out 20,000 troops from the Red Flame Army, all of whom are from all over Arathi Highlands. Do you believe it?

As long as his father is fine, who would question a prince?

Amazing!

It was so attractive that Jialin couldn't wait.

"Father, I already know the difficulty. Please give me this opportunity. I am confident that I can build a new city and make it a new grain-producing area."

"I am willing to issue a military order to razed Deadwood Village before the new city is completed, wipe it off the map, and unify Arathi Highlands."

Faced with Garin's confident look, Solas was somewhat moved.

A month ago, he volunteered to command the army, but I just thought he was just doing it on a whim.

The reason why he was agreed to build an army was because Solas also had this idea. He planned to select several elite teams from the major legions as the backbone, and then recruit new soldiers to form a new legion to guard the newly developed land.

It happened that Garin returned to Stromgarde and volunteered to build an army, so Solas agreed to his request. On the one hand, it was in line with his own ideas, and on the other hand, he also wanted to train Garin.

And Solas has made all the necessary arrangements. First, he dispatched Amor to join Garin's team as a captain of the personal guard. A ninth-rank warrior is not a cabbage, and he is also a senior general who is second only to the emperor. Even if he handles the border diplomatic incident improperly, he will not be demoted to the ground.

Amor is Solas' backup and will take over command when Garin is in the most critical situation, at least to protect Garin from danger.

At the same time, he had an emergency signal bomb in his hand. Two cavalry regiments of a thousand men had already been quietly stationed behind Sancha Town, waiting for Amor's arrow to pierce the sky and thousands of troops to come to support them.

At least the backup plan was not used, right? Garin did a great job, far exceeding Solas's expectations. At the same time, he knew that everyone has their own expertise, so he directly handed over the command of the battle to Amor.

What surprised Solas the most was the appearance of Gandalf. This wizard was too powerful and his strength was improving rapidly. No one knew where he found Gandalf from.

According to Amor's indirect hints, we only know that this high-level mage does not belong to Dalaran, and this is the first time he has appeared publicly in the human kingdom.

It is said that his teacher was called Milans Dill, and his teacher's teacher was called Orolin. They inherited the magic from a wild wizard named Incarnos, and it has been passed down for hundreds of years. Their magical knowledge originated from a notebook called "Merry Winterwind Magic Notebook". They studied magical knowledge in the deep mountains of Alterac for hundreds of years.

As for the reason for staying with Prince Galen, it was because Master Gandalf was impressed by Prince Galen's qualifications and had accepted the prince as his wizard apprentice.

Of the above information, Solas only believed the punctuation marks and four words: Merry Winterwind. As the human king and successor of Stromgarde, he knew this name clearly. He was one of the founders of the Council of Tirisfal and one of the earliest wizards in human history.

Just as Solas was about to send a letter to reprimand Amor for his investigation report, he saw the last sentence of the investigation report: Under the guidance of Master Gandalf, Prince Garin successfully cast the two spells of blizzard and summoning water element.

Solas was very clear about Garin's magical talent. He had extraordinary mental power but was unable to cast spells. This had been confirmed by Count Dabire and Antonidas of Dalaran.

Amor could not be careless about this matter, so he was able to do what even the strongest wizard in Dalaran could not do. This shows that Gandalf has his own unique qualities, and he must have not lied about taking in a disciple.

Let's continue observing for now.

There is nothing you can do about being suspected by Solas and Amor.

Garen had started to make up the origins of the Archmage when he summoned him. After all, the possibility of a high-level mage appearing out of nowhere, who was not even a registered mage in Dalaran, was very small.

A magician needs to accumulate a lot of knowledge. Your talent determines your upper limit, and how much magical knowledge you can access determines your lower limit.

Creating one's own magic and researching magic are abilities that only high-level wizards have when they have accumulated a certain amount of magical knowledge.

Human magic originated from the high elves, who taught magic to humans only when they were absolutely forced to do so. If humans wanted to learn magic, they had to go to the holy land of magic, which was Dalaran.

So Garin made up something like "Merry Winterwind's Magic Notebook". Merry Winterwind is not a name that ordinary people can come into contact with, and with the help of this famous wizard, Garin's fabricated lies were barely credible.

As for finding Merry Winterwind to confirm this matter, you go ahead.

Getting back to the point, Solas decided to let Garin try first, but as father and son, they had to settle accounts clearly.

"According to the consultants' calculations, we will have to invest 100,000 gold coins in the early stages to recruit stonemasons, purchase construction materials, and build the framework of the new town."

"My consultants will recruit people in the city after the project begins, using favorable conditions to attract citizens to the new city to open up new land. The first batch will leave at the end of the year. You must build the housing needed for 10,000 people within six months."

Jialin silently calculated in his mind that a farm's internal dormitory had six bunk beds and could accommodate twelve people.

Ten thousand people would need more than 830 farms. One farm would require 80 units of gold and 20 units of wood. Even if one farm required 100 units of gold, Garin would need to spend more than 80,000 units of gold, which is equivalent to about 40,000 gold coins.

There is still half of the gold coins left, well, I have to pocket it. This project is very profitable.

As for time? Garin never questioned the creation of the Heart of Origin. It only required forty farmers working in two shifts, one for each farm, and it would be completed in a month.

After silently calculating the simple data in his mind in a flash, Jialin nodded.

"No problem, Father."

"The second batch of residents will be relocated in the middle of next year, and the third batch will be relocated at the end of next year. Funds will be invested in the project one after another. There are three batches of people, and it is planned to relocate 50,000 people. You must ensure that these 50,000 people can be self-sufficient before they can be fed and clothed."

Garin nodded.

"No problem, Father."

What I, Jialin, fear least is food shortage.

"I allow the Red Flame Army to expand. How many people you can recruit and support depends on your ability."

"No problem, thank you father."

Garin continued to nod. The Heart of Origin is very capable! But I won't tell you, I'm just playing! Making a fortune in silence is the best way.

Jialin became an emotionless nodding machine.

I hope that when I lead tens of thousands of troops in the future, my father won't regret what he said today. This is part of my ability, hehe!
