Chapter 381: The Elves Gradually Adapting to Life and the New Population
Under Rand's governance, the resort expanded rapidly and became more prosperous.
Today, Rand's statue has been built in a prominent place in the resort.
In a sense, the resort now has three wonders.
Large baths improve living standards and reduce the incidence of disease.
The faceless statue of the mother goddess can theoretically increase the cohesion of faith.
The Rand statue will also, in theory, increase the prosperity and stability of the territory.
Although Rand was skeptical of such theoretical matters.
The holiday villa did not undergo any major changes due to Rand's return. At most, because of Rand's encouragement, everyone's mood for work became much better.
The summer is hot.
Teacher Feng Ling, who was originally the captain of the elf field team, brought the students back to the church school.
The recent practical exercises have ended, and now it is summer, the weather is a bit hot, so it is a good time to bring the students back to school for cultural courses.
After bringing the students back to school, Fengling found Xiangcao working in the teaching office.
Vanilla was wearing a standard teacher's outfit and was working carefully on teaching documents.
Recently, new students have been enrolled, and some students are gradually graduating due to age. Vanilla needs to adjust the students' learning progress and the teachers' education progress.
These gradually became troublesome things.
Also, the teaching program and the church schools teach a lot of knowledge, from military to agriculture, from territory governance to personal force, there are relevant tutorials.
This not only makes it difficult for Vanilla and Lord Thorn's aunt, who are teachers, but the amount of knowledge is also too much for the students.
Vanilla felt that the school needed more teachers, and then started to divide the school into majors and subjects.
Of course, all this requires Lord Rand's approval.
This is a lot of work, and it has made Vanilla very anxious recently.
The lady from the Thorn family was willing to cooperate with her in teaching, but disappeared when it came to extra work.
This resulted in the management of the church school falling on the shoulders of this "elf slave girl".
The elves in the Elf Field Team are still in the process of getting familiar with the subject, and currently, they can only be assigned some specific teaching tasks.
"We're short of people~" Vanilla sighed.
Then an extra coupon appeared in front of Vanilla's table.
"There's always work to do." Feng Ling knocked on the table, "It's time to get off work, do you want to go together?"
Vanilla looked at the wind chimes that tempted her.
Ever since the last time the elf field team experienced the difficulty of escape, her fellow tribesmen have accepted the reality.
I accepted her training obediently and then started giving practical courses to students.
In addition, the elves of the Elf Field Team are already very familiar with life in the resort villa.
Just as quickly as Vanilla adapted.
Then, we all fell in love with the unique dining area of the resort.
There are not a few lords in this world who pursue gourmet food, but there are very few lords like Rand who hold gourmet food conferences and set up gourmet dining areas in the core territories.
Rand himself is a fan of gourmet food, and with the emergence of the gourmet dining area, the food quality of the resort has far surpassed that of the surrounding areas.
Perhaps only the cuisine of some aristocratic courts in the south can surpass the gourmet dining areas of Rand.
The elves do have some inherited food recipes, but the varieties are limited and are not something that low- and middle-level elves like the Elf Field Team can taste.
The prices at the resort's restaurants are generally more affordable, with only a few dishes out of the reach of the elves currently working at the lair.
And in an event.
Feng Ling was lucky enough to draw the secret Monster BBQ family meal coupon that she now has, which can support up to 15 people.
Including vanilla, there are only 13 elves here, and one coupon for the secret Monster barbecue family meal is enough to buy them all.
"This is roasted monster meat, which you can't usually eat." Feng Ling tempted.
Vanilla stood up, smoothed out her wrinkled teacher's uniform, sorted out the documents on the table, and said, "Then let's go."
Vanilla also felt that it would be better for her to relax now.
There is no rush for work, she still has a long time to work.
Vanilla and the members of the Wind Chime Team went to the dining area of the resort together.
Vanilla and Wind Chimes actually have a very good relationship. Vanilla is a very remote branch of the royal family, while Wind Chimes are low-level nobles, just like human knights.
Vanilla longs for the outside world of the Elf Forest, probably because of the wind chimes.
But now it's okay, they are all outside.
The human world does not welcome elves very much, but as they are Rand's "slaves", no one dares to offend them.
Also, adventurers are a relatively tolerant group, and the atmosphere in the holiday villa is much better. There are many people here who do not discriminate against elves at all.
Vanilla, the elf field team, and the two elf waiters in the tavern all live comfortably here.
Vanilla greeted the captain of the Steel Team, and then went into the restaurant opposite with the elf of the Wind Chime Team.
I got this coupon from the restaurant across the street.
The smile of the captain of the Burning Steel Team froze. He thought a big business was coming to his door, but it turned out to be going to the opposite side.
The captain of the Burning Steel team curled his lips.
…
At the same time, in the area on the edge of Crescent Moon Territory.
Many civilians, known as conscripts, are waiting for their fate to be decided.
They were conscripted by their overlords to serve the Lander Count as cannon fodder.
Although many of them don't even know what a count is.
It's summer now.
Although this is the north, the Frost Moon Kingdom belongs to the northern kingdom that is closer to the south, and Rand's territory belongs to the Frost Moon Kingdom that is closer to the south.
The summer here is relatively hot.
The civilians were still half-naked as when they arrived, but this time, the straw sandals they wore were already in tatters.
They walked a lot back and forth.
Many of them are very nervous, waiting for the verdict of their fate.
Some civilians knew that there was a prosperous city in the south called Resort Villa.
Sometimes their lords, passing merchants, and missionaries who spread their faith would also talk about the city.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Especially missionaries.
They said that the holiday villa was a place favored by God, a place where God's messengers descended, and that it was full of honey and cream, flowers and fruits.
Then they came here as levies under the orders of their lord.
Then they discovered that what the missionaries said seemed to be true.
Although honey and fruits are not really everywhere, the common people in this land seem to be entitled to enjoy these high-end ingredients, instead of only being able to eat low-quality black bread and sour roadside wild fruits.
It seems that Rand is truly a benevolent messenger.
They came here as conscripts, but the Rand Archon did not ask them to go to the battlefield to die, but dismissed them.
He is indeed a merciful messenger of God, just as the missionaries said.
And now, it seems that some of them will be qualified to remain in the Kingdom of God.
Just now, a soldier from the hideout came over to tell me the news.
However, it did not immediately say who would be qualified to become the subjects of Rand's Messenger.
Most of the conscripts were feeling anxious and restless under the scorching sun.
They stretched their necks, wiggled their toes which were covered with mud because their straw sandals were broken, and licked their lips which were chapped due to thirst.
They opened their eyes wide, pricked up their ears, and looked forward to it.
They await their fate.
Soon, the soldiers from the hideout, who were much cleaner and looked better than the conscripts, came in front of them.
The conscripts looked at the soldiers in the den with envy.
Both parties are civilians of the same status.
As soldiers, the conscripts did not even have decent uniforms, let alone weapons and armor.
The food distributed to these conscripts was so inferior that even livestock would find it unpalatable.
However, the soldiers in the hideout in front of the conscripts were completely different from them.
They envied these soldiers, who could not only fight for their beliefs but also serve the messengers of God.
And they can still have such a life that they envy.
Soon, the soldiers in the hideout announced who could join Rand's army and work for him.
The nobles allowed Rand to retain one-third of the conscripted soldiers. If the number of people who had disappeared due to Rand's previous tricks was taken into account, the population Rand obtained was basically equal to half of these conscripted soldiers.
This is already a pretty good number. The population Rand will gain through conscription should be around two thousand.
Having gained so many benefits, Rand did not do any more small moves.
If there are more, it may anger the domestic nobles, which will not be worth the loss. It will be bad if the domestic nobles do not support him next time there is a war.
The conscripts who were announced to be able to join Rand's army were ecstatic.
This is a multiple joy.
Not only can you get closer to the land given by God, but you can also enjoy a better life.
On the way to be dismissed, they had talked to some of the soldiers in the den, as well as the laborers in the den.
After they become Rand's subjects, they can live through normal labor.
You can choose to reclaim new land under the guidance of an agricultural officer, or redeem a piece of already reclaimed land.
In short, as long as you are willing to work hard, you will have a life no different from the civilians in other forces.
Some villagers who had not been preached to the religion could roughly guess from the joy of their companions that being chosen was definitely a lucky thing.
As for the other conscripts who were not selected, they were all depressed. They could only start their journey back home dejectedly.
The soldiers in the hideout felt a little sorry for the conscripts whose eyes had fallen into numbness again.
But they can't do much.
The den would provide them with the food they needed for the return journey, and nothing more.
This is the case for the vast majority of people in this world, who cannot decide their own destiny.
