CHAPTER 1359: CHAPTER 719 IMMIGRATION POLICY OF THE CITY OF FAITH_3

We have no way to judge which slaves were originally there and which were newly captured by slave traders after we offered a price.

This is a fundamental principle that cannot be compromised."

Gaven’s attitude towards the slave industry is as resolute as ever, with no tolerance, not even for indirect encouragement.

His motive has never been kindness, but revenge, a personal grudge from his past life.

This grudge, he wants to exact it not only on the Santarin Association but on all slave traders, whom he cannot tolerate.

Others are unaware of this, naturally attributing this matter to Gaven’s kind nature, which is a delightful misunderstanding.

Kellysha suddenly realized: "Lord’s compassion, I oversimplified this issue, I have no more objections."

"Lord Carl, you may continue."

"Having discussed long-distance immigration policy, let’s talk about nearby places. The difficulty of immigration from our three neighboring directions varies greatly.

The most challenging is the Komeer Kingdom, which has been at peace for a long time, and its citizens have developed their pride, even boasting exclusive songs about Komeer. Attracting immigrants from there is not easy.

Especially now, due to a bet with Rocklands, the Northeast Red Spring Reclamation Area has begun massive development. Those with adventurous spirits and seeking change would run this way first, not towards Goblin Margins.

If any do come here, we must be cautious, as they are likely criminals unable to stay in the Komeer Kingdom, and we cannot harbor them, neither in public nor private.

So, it is not our priority direction. Having them is good, but not having them is normal.

Our focus should be on the cities on the western side of the Sunset Mountains and the Giant Dragon Coast; both are roughly equally difficult.

People on the Giant Dragon Coast are profit-driven, and even forming the Eight City Alliance can’t change that. As long as they know the City of Faith isn’t a barren land, and they can find wealth more easily here, they will naturally flock over without our encouragement.

Once their hearts are swayed, they are unstoppable and will find ways to head north.

This can completely integrate with our own development.

Lord has already created countless job opportunities, including Styrak Bush cultivation, fish feed processing, fish farming, Boom Boom Arowana Shrimp and electric eel farming, glass blowing factories, glass bottle blowing factories, glass lantern manufacturing, sand quarrying, stone quarrying, and biological cement manufacturing.

Many of these are new industries with infinite opportunities for wealth extraction. As long as someone finds their first pot of gold, many will follow in madness.

To attract more people to come, our next step is to continue building more houses, providing free food and accommodation for those willing to strive in this city.

Especially those craftsmen with a skill, offer them shop spaces at low rent.

This is only an initial policy; we will adjust based on practical needs. I believe this city has unimaginable commercial competitiveness; the loose alliance of the Giant Dragon Coast is no match for us.

When our rise becomes unstoppable.

Many profit-driven merchants and the Dark Guild will tilt towards us.

We can seize the opportunity to pull one faction, suppress another, and attack yet another, and soon, the so-called Eight City Alliance will fall apart and return to their original scattered state."

Carl’s main target is still the Giant Dragon Coast, both for his understanding of the area and due to its dense population, second only to the Komeer Kingdom.

The small and medium-sized towns west of the Sunset Mountains can’t compare.

"Have the fish feeds made from Styrak Bush been successful? Has the construction of the glowing water channels been successful? Have the biological cement test results come out?" Gaven hurriedly asked.

While he introduced all these new things, he’s been too busy lately to keep up with their progress.

From Carl’s words, it seems they are about to start large-scale factory production here? So soon?

"Yes, they’ve all succeeded." Carl said with genuine admiration, "Lord has sharp insight and cannot be wrong. They bring not just two separate industries to our City of Faith but two giant industry chains, which, if expanded, could support tens of thousands."

If leading the Conqueror Army to establish the City of Faith showcased Gaven’s military capabilities.

Then introducing Styrak Bush cultivation and glowing water channel construction displayed his economic insight and commercial abilities.

Directly finding two major pillar industries for the City of Faith, supporting and complementing each other in many ways.

For example, Styrak Bush cultivation perfectly merges with the fishery of Tun Marsh and cross-integrates with another industry of Boom Boom Arowana Shrimp and electric eel farming.

The production of glass lanterns will also spur glass burning, sand quarrying, stone quarrying, glass bottle blowing, and more. Where else is it more convenient to develop these industries than in one’s own city?

The biological cement made from Boom Boom Arowana Shrimp shells ensures that even without the substantial support of spellcasters after the Conqueror Army leaves the City of Faith, the construction speed will not be too slow.

Even someone like Carl, not proficient in imagination, can envision the forthcoming explosion of business opportunities and vitality in the City of Faith.

Were it not for the age mismatch, Carl might be tempted to suspect that he is the reincarnation of the Wealth Goddess Wokin, possessing the ability to turn things to gold, with gender being no issue for True Gods.

"Tell me in detail." Gaven said, keenly interested.

"The process of making fish feed from Styrak Bush is straightforward. Just mix them with various grasses and water plants, crush them, mix them together, and throw them into the water to attract fish to frenzy.

Those Druids are researching ways to dry and compress this feed for long-term storage for use in the grass-scarce winter.

With Styrak Bush as bait, the blackscaled lizardfolk’s fish catch in the Tun Marsh has doubled in just ten days.

In the future, just relying on the fish catch here can support tens of thousands."

Carl clearly knows what interests Gaven most, directly skipping to the main points, "We have already organized manpower to undertake large-scale planting of Styrak Bush on land that cannot be quickly developed, especially along the Conqueror Path.

Starting next summer, we can organize manpower to go out and harvest twice a year."
