Although the city hall has financial resources and manpower, and there are developers such as the Morgan family, the Habs family, Miss Alice, and six other families, a large group of people are working hard to develop Pompeii's real estate.
Moreover, the house does not need to be beautiful. It can be built with wood, and there is no need to paint or carve patterns. You can hand over the house directly.
However, due to time constraints, the progress of house construction is still very slow. Currently, within the entire city wall of Pompeii, only half of the area has houses or buildings.
Elsewhere, there are still tents.
Many nobles lived in tents, which was both indecent and very cold.
But the nobles had no dissatisfaction.
You must know that the entire kingdom is currently at war, and there are only three places left in Orange where the nobles can find a place to stay.
The Earldom of Libya, the Dukedom of Felge, and the White Eagle Territory where they are located.
How many nobles have been killed or even exterminated. Just having a roof over their heads and a cup of hot soup is enough for them.
Besides, if you just wait a little longer, the house will be built.
Especially when the nobles looked up to the sky, they felt even more at ease.
It was the middle of winter and very cold. The sky over Pompeii was filled with strong winds, but they were very high and could not affect Pompeii.
And the range is limited to the sky above Pompeii.
The howling wind made a harsh sound.
That is the magic of the Eagle King.
But it gave the nobles an extremely reassuring feeling because the White Eagle Territory was so powerful.
"Firewood is on sale, firewood is on sale. Does anyone want to buy firewood?" Between the tents, there were many vendors pushing small carts selling firewood.
It is very cold when living in a tent, so making a fire is a good way to keep warm, and you can also make hot soup to eat.
The nobles are willing to spend money even if they don't have firewood. But ordinary people who have the physical strength and connections can find ways to collect the leftover wood scraps after building villas and sell them.
The relationship between supply and demand is very good.
The nobles received warmth, and the common people received coins.
All in all, the current Pompeii is where the nobles and the people can get what they need. It is very, very stable and very beautiful.
town Hall.
The town hall will soon be demolished, and after the demolition, villas will be built and then sold.
Because it is too crowded and cannot keep up with the development of Pompeii. The new town hall will be located near the new Lord's Castle and will be a huge building.
But at this moment, the old city hall is still in use. People are coming and going in the city hall, including nobles and civilians. The same thing is that they are all here to do business.
The officials who received them were also very kind, which was what distinguished Pompeii from many aristocratic territories.
Many territorial officials are arrogant.
Pompeii's officials were very kind, which also helped Pompeii win a lot of popularity.
On the second floor, inside the mayor's office.
Mayor Lelouch talks to one of his officials.
Mr. Mayor has always been very elegant. In order to be worthy of his status, he even grew a big beard. Luther once made fun of Mr. Mayor for pretending to be mature.
But in such a cold weather, the mayor lost his grace and wrapped himself into a chubby rice dumpling.
But Mr. Mayor still felt cold, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand and shivering from time to time.
I thought to myself, "I want Luther to fulfill his promise and buy me the magic potion to become a knight."
Last time Luther promised to provide Lelouch with a potion that would turn him into a knight.
This is the mayor's benefit.
He was distracted for a moment, but the mayor did not forget what he had to do. He raised his head and said to the officials in front of him, "Are the personnel arranged properly?"
"Everything has been arranged. City halls at all levels will arrange a large number of people to go to villages to give speeches and promote Pompeii's agricultural concepts. In addition, the city hall will control the slaughter of Bas cattle and the number of Bas cattle."
the official replied.
Promoting Pompeii Territory's agricultural concept to the entire White Eagle Territory was a goal that Luther had set before, and Lulu is now implementing it.
"Mr. Mayor, if we promote Pompeii's agricultural concept, we will face many social problems next year." The official then said.
"I know."
Lelouch smiled and nodded, stood up from the chair, stretched his somewhat cold legs, and then said, "Food production has increased. Although farmers are full, food prices will also drop. Farmers actually
You can't make money. In that case, the number of agricultural workers will decrease, while the number of migrant workers will increase. Currently, there are not many factories in the White Eagle Territory, so it will cause a certain amount of chaos. But it doesn't matter, our Governor is very rich, he will
Set up factories, utilize these manpower, and achieve the purpose of making money. If there are business opportunities, a large number of businessmen will flock to Baiying collar to set up factories. This solves the problem of supply and demand."
"Society will have a certain amount of chaos, but it will eventually become more stable. At that time, the White Eagle Territory will be even more beautiful."
"And the second problem is that serfs will be worthless."
"But there is no need to worry, our Lord Governor has a lot of money, and he will eat as many serfs as he has."
At present, the entire Kingdom of Prussia is in a period of great upheaval. The nobles and wealthy landowners are using serfs to cultivate the fields and make money for themselves.
In the areas occupied by the New Party, the New Party has already begun to emancipate the serfs. It liberated the serfs very brutally, promulgated laws, and turned the serfs into free citizens.
Anyone who uses serfs shall be put to death.
This is different from Luther's original situation. Luther liberated his own serfs and did not ask everyone to liberate the serfs together.
So it will not cause social conflicts.
The New Party's approach has aggravated the conflict with the nobles.
All in all, they are two forces that cannot be combined.
That's too far.
The current situation in the White Eagle Territory is that with the influx of a large number of people, the entire territory needs a large amount of food, so the White Eagle Territory needs a big harvest next year.
But with the promotion of Pompeii's agricultural concept, next year will be a huge harvest.
Even the current population of the White Eagle Territory cannot digest food. The drop in food prices will not only make the common people unwilling to work in agriculture, but also choose to work.
It will also cause the big nobles, big businessmen, and big landowners who own land to be unable to make money. They may abandon their land or sell it to free up money for other businesses.
In this way, their serfs will be of no use. If a large number of serfs enter the market, the price of serfs will plummet.
And Luther could buy these serfs, which would be of great use whether they were organizing farming or turning them into workers.
All in all, these two are social problems, but as long as Luther has money, the entire problem can be solved.
Therefore, working under a rich lord is also a happy thing.
