Chapter 817 (2/2)
When Ashes hness Tilly, the Wolf Girl perceived a feeling of tenderness in her tone, which was rare for the Extraordinary She guessed this Tilly as able to change such a deter-willed person must have been very uncommon
She secretly bore this name in her mind
When they passed a flat building under construction, Lorgar raised another question ”I heard that the Port of Clearwater has become burned ruins ever since the Queen of Clearwater left this area These people aren't local refugees, are they? Why do they seerants?”
”Of course, they aren't They all come from Neverwinter”
The Wolf Girl could hardly believe what she had heard ”Neverwinter youof Graycastle, Roland Wimbledon? He ordered his own people to build residences for the Mojins here?”
”He didn't need to force anyone All of these people came here voluntarily because the construction project here pays theet a pay raise of five to ten silver royals by working here The workers said that soon after the Ministry of Construction issued a recruitment notice for this project, City Hall was packed with applicants”
The Ministry of Construction? City Hall? The Wolf Girl felt lost hearing these strange words She wagged her tail and asked, ”What about the Sand Nation?”
Lorgar rerants consisted of several small clans and were about 2,000 to 3,000 people She wondered why the great chief still wanted to send his own people traveling all the way froion when he had so many Mojins to work for him She started to doubt his true motives
”As His Majesty wants to build a new city in Endless Cape, most Mojins went there,” Ashes answered quickly, ”so did the people fro in the construction task, could the Mojins get new homes and food supply just like the subjects of Neverwinter”
Lorgar was surprised to hear that the king planned to build a city in the uninhabited wasteland which had no oasis If it was not for Ashes, a proud person as loath to lie, she would never believe this
”What's the King of Graycastle thinking about?” she wondered
”Then what about the people who are unable to go there?”
”If they've got to stay due to health problems, they can help the construction teaet the sa to work, you'll never have to worry about going hungry” Ashes sighed with hness Tilly once said that the ideal world in her mind was a place where you reaped what you sowed andthe others It sounded incredible, but her useless brother did make it happen”
Lorgar autonored the last coreat chief want to build a city in Endless Cape? That place has nothing”
”There's Blackwater His Majesty wants to collect asout her palms
”That's the reason?” The Wolf Girl was stunned, rooted to the ground ”He did so much work just to collect Blackwater? He can simply buy it from the Iron Sand City, just like the Queen of Clearwater used to do!”
Lorgar did not believe in goodwill for no apparent reason Most do apparently was acting contrary to this principle He gave the land to the Sand Nation and spent a lot to reclaim the desert and to station troops in this place She believed that the h to buy hundreds of barrels of Blackwater
”If what Ashes said was true, then the king's deeds were really strange,”she thought and then started to worry about her father's decision
She expected Ashes to refute or explain further, but the Extraordinary just raised her brow and said, ”Yes, that's true Who knohat the hell he's thinking?”
”What?”
Ashes said casually, ”Even in Neverwinter, there're only a feho can understand his absurd theories AndreaAfter all, they're both nobles, and their friendshi+p is one mind in two bodies The others probably won't be able to explain this to you Anyho cares I'ood idea, I'll be fine with it” She stopped walking after saying these words, and then said, ”Here we are”
