Arcane Lord

Worried that the drow might attack at any time, the Silverleaf family had already started packing up their belongings before receiving a response from Savile Territory. After receiving the news from Mrs. Patty, they accelerated again.

However, such a large family property could not be dealt with immediately. Until the third day after Midsummer Festival, there were still many family properties in Xif City that had not been completed.

However, the clan leader Oripus was unwilling to delay any longer and began to send his clansmen to Conefira City in batches. The last batch was led by his father and family elder O'Brien.

If it were anyone else, Oripus would not be willing to waste time at such a critical moment, but if it were his father, he would still try his best to spare some time, find his father before he left, and warn him. :

"There are often human mages in Conifera City. Father, please don't conflict with them. It will take about three or four days for the matter in Sif City to be settled. I will join you by then."

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

Oripus nodded and watched his father go away. In fact, it was not that easy to avoid leaking the news. Didn't he just get the news from the Yuehen family?

Other families in Sif City should have received some news more or less. What he can do now is to find a way to quickly dispose of the family property, whether it is mortgage or sale, and exchange it for easy-to-carry hard currency as much as possible.

Oripus decided to stay for three more days at most. After three days, he had to leave regardless of whether the treatment was complete or not. This was the shortest time for family members to stay on the Nese border.

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

But even so, Oripus was still keenly aware of the undercurrents beneath the calm. Today when he was selling the family property to the chamber of commerce in the city, he was asked overtly and covertly to find out what was going on.

Oripus used the excuse of offending a big shot in Cormanthor to pass by, but as long as he was in Sif City, the temptation would not stop, and he must remain vigilant at all times.

From the moment he made the decision to escape from Sif City, no matter whether the drow finally reached here or not, Sif City was destined to no longer be his home. Thinking of this, Oripus's heart was filled with sadness.

Suddenly, Oripus's face changed, and he quickly adjusted his mood. When he returned to his usual calm appearance, and felt that nothing was abnormal, he slowly walked towards the West City Council.

Just now, the newly appointed speaker after the Yuehen family left asked him to go to the parliament for questioning. Oripus knew that he had to go there and delay the transfer of his clan members as much as possible.

If everything goes well, it may be possible to deal with all the remaining unprocessed industries at once.

…

Daxia collar, Linshui Village.

On the evening of the third day after Midsummer Festival, during a routine inspection, the Linshui Village Riverbank Patrol discovered a fleet of boats heading south along the Wolfburg River, and could reach the Linshui Village Pier in almost a moment.

After carefully identifying the flag hanging on the mast, a patrol member immediately ran towards the Altar Square, shouting loudly as he ran:

"Lord Leiden, the fleet led by Hiboden is here!"

In the temporary office on the east side of the Altar Square, Leiden was leading two clerks to sort out documents related to the three newly established departments. When he heard the noise outside, he immediately put down what he was doing. work and issued an order to the clerk:

"Go and notify Director Jiaco of the [Resettlement Department] and ask him to send people to the dock to prepare to receive new residents! In addition, notify Director Cade of the [Logistics Department] and ask him to quickly prepare food and water."

After saying that, Leighton immediately stood up, came outside the house, stopped the patrol members who were about to rush in, and asked: "Are you sure it's the fleet led by Hiboden?"

The team member swallowed subconsciously and replied slightly nervously: "Sir, I am sure that everyone except me has also seen the anchor staff emblem flag hung by that fleet."

"I understand, go back to the dock!"

After saying that, Leiden left the team member behind and walked towards the lord's villa in the east.

…

After being informed by the guard Norman, Layton saw the lord in the study who was writing on a piece of paper. After bowing, he reported: "Sir, the fleet led by Hiboden is here."

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

Sha Duo paused for a moment, then finished the last stroke, then stood up and put away several sketches of the design of the magic printing press scattered on the desk, and looked at Leiden:

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

Of course, Leiden would not refuse and immediately agreed: "Yes, sir!"

…

When Chateau and Leighton arrived at the pier together, the fleet was close enough to see the faces of the crew on the deck. However, approaching the pier, the fleet was slowing down and a crew member was shouting loudly. Stop signal.

Of course, Xia Duo came here not to see the fleet, but to inspect the work of the newly established [Resettlement Department], which accepts and resettles new residents. The territory has done this several times in the past, and it can be considered as a mature experience. .

However, Leiden was in charge at that time, and now that there is a new person, I don’t know if there will be any trouble. And as a lord, standing here, he can protect Jiaco 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 residents in an orderly manner. Although it was a little hectic at first, it became more and more proficient after that.

Until all new residents were registered, there was no trouble.

Chateau paid attention to Giaco's movements throughout the whole process, and he was very satisfied with it. He couldn't help but said to Leiden: "This Giaco is really a talent!"

"It's all thanks to the opportunity given to him by the adults!"

"Ha ha!"

Chateau knew that Leiden was not good at flattering, or that Leiton was flattering every word he said, but he was still very happy because what Leiden said was true. If it weren't for Chateau, Jako would still be at Savile Port right now. The dock is resistant to large packages!

After laughing, Xia Duo asked again: "Is there enough food in the cafeteria?"

"That's enough, sir. Now the cafeteria steams nearly a thousand steamed buns every day. The residents can't finish them all. If we can make a lot more, it won't be a problem for the new residents to spend tonight."

"Um!"

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