Chapter 222 75. Wash away the shame

“Don’t you have anything to do?”

After Annan walked in front of her for the twelfth time, a very annoyed Ingrid said.

“No.”

Ingrid bluntly said: “Plenty City is still an uncultivated pure land, you can go there to take risks.”

"I'm not going!"

Because someone went instead of Annan: Joan and West.

Annan asked Ingrid to call Joan and West so that she would stop bothering her, and then asked Joan and West who would like to go to Fengrao City to do business. Mainly sell magic stones to Fenghuang City and introduce Xingyue Bay.

“Leave it to me, Boss Annan!” West promised, patting his chest.

Annan gave West 20 magic stones. As the first active trade in Xingyue Bay, Annan found the Lion Mercenary Group, which he had cooperated with before, and hired an elite and four professionals for protection.

Elite professionals can usually solve most problems.

After arranging West's departure, Annan fell into a state of having nothing to do.

Go find Ilimoyas... let's forget it. It may be that the melting snow has made Xingyue Bay humid, and the blue dragon's temper has not been very good these days.

Unable to sit still, Annan asked the guard captain to bring a horse, and secretly went with him to the south of Xingyue Bay, to a hillside near Glacier Port.

Standing here, Annan looked at the scattered houses, workers carrying raw materials, traces of logging everywhere, and the ugly spread of bare tree stumps.

Xingyue Bay is under construction in full swing, while Glacier Harbor is gloomy. Even if the outlines of the drudges in shabby clothes and shambling steps can be guessed, their toil can be guessed.

The result of this squeeze and construction dozens of days in advance is that the port of Glacier Port is progressing much faster than that of Xingyue Bay... but it is only temporary. Their workers may not be able to hold on any longer, but the citizens of Xingyue Bay are in high spirits.

The Guards Captain suggested: "Lord Annan, if you want them to stop their progress, you can instigate the workers to start a riot."

"And then these workers will become victims of our conspiracy?"< br>
Annan is not a bad person, nor is he a nobleman. He will not do things that only such rotten politicians can do.

The guard captain kept his mouth shut. As far as he was concerned, a group of hard workers who were not even civilians were dead. So he could understand why the people of Xingyue Bay loved their lord to death.

There is no lord in the entire North who cares more about his people than he does.

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Another way..."

Annan and the guard captain returned to Xingyue Bay and summoned Francois , telling him and the captain of the guard to lead a group of cavalry to do something...

The next day, a group of cavalry suddenly appeared on the hillside north of Glacier Harbor.

They inspired the Philosopher's Stone to show "The Fall of the Wizard's Tower" to make it difficult for the hard workers working on the beach to concentrate. They also promoted Xingyue Bay to welcome the homeless at noon, which was close to the meal, and provided free food and shelter for work.

The guards of Glacier Port tried to expel them, but were forced to stop when they were still a few hundred meters away from the hillside, because further ahead was the territory of Xingyue Bay.

A lord has the authority to deal with soldiers who intrude into the territory.

Annan's recruitment did not have any effect other than making the peons feel impetuous. When Francois came back, he also brought Gemma's words: "He accused you of plundering the wealth of the Diatra family, and he actually wanted to Robbery of Diatra's peons ”

Annan was indifferent and asked the captain of the guard to bring twice as many men, and Francois disappeared.

At this time, there was an additional worker coated with sludge among the hard workers in Glacier Port. While listening to other hard workers talking about the north, he whispered: "I heard that the treatment in Xingyue Bay is very good... Everyone can have enough to eat, wear warm clothes, and live in a new house..."

"How is it possible?" Some hard workers don't believe it. "Really! Didn't you see that magic image? How could it be fake!"

A seed called hope was planted in my heart, and this emotion reached its peak at lunch : The faint smell of meat wafts from the distant hillside, but all they have is black bread and pickles.

"I can't stand it anymore!"

The "hard worker" suddenly dropped his pickaxe and rushed towards the hillside in the distance.

The soldiers didn't react in time, so he and a few hard workers who followed him rushed to the hillside. Then the hard workers saw the lucky ones put on brand new cotton clothes, immersed themselves in eating, and exclaimed, "It's so delicious. "Exclaimed.

Some peons wanted to escape, but were suppressed by the soldiers. It's just that the dissatisfaction will not disappear, they just hide...

Of course Gema also knows, so he sends guards to keep an eye on all the peons.

But it was fine during the day, as the guards only had to block the busy peons on the beach. But when night falls, the peons return to their rooms, and a bonfire is raised on the hillside, and the screening of "Betal's Redemption" continues.

A pair of prying eyes lit up in front of the window.

This night in Glacier Harbor is not peaceful... In short, when a new day comes, half of the hard workers who get out of the house are missing - the missing half is on the hillside.

The captain of the personal guard led these anxious hard workers back to Xingyue Bay, and then they discovered that this place was really as beautiful as in the magical image, and the King of the North really fulfilled his promise and arranged a residence.

"Gema asked you what exactly you want to do." The guard captain still brought Gema's words.

"He should ask himself this kind of thing."

"Should we continue?" he asked again.

"Of course."

Gema did nothing and Annan continued to plunder the peons. Whatever Gema did, Annan had an excuse to cause trouble for him.

In the next few days, there were fewer and fewer peons in Glacier Port, and Gema prevented the loss of peons. The torture of executing peons if they caught them escaping backfired, making the escape of peons more and more serious, and there were even three Soldiers rebel because of Betar's Redemption.

Construction of Glacier Harbor came to a complete standstill.

But the next day, hundreds of guards came from Betar City. These guards, who might have familiar faces, went into battle in person and built the port faster than before.

Annan He stopped and asked the guard captain to retreat and summoned about 800 peons to the square.

“You can stay here, and I can bring your family here, or you can walk hundreds of miles home, but no one can save you if you are recruited by Glacier Port again.”

Annan asked Francois to tally up their decisions and returned to the house to wait for the results.

Not long after, Francois came over. "Did they agree?" Annan didn't show that he didn't care.

"Only a few people refused."

"Start at the few people who left." Annan suspected that they were spies placed by Gema among the peons.

“I know.”

Then they counted the origins of the peons: some were from Breeze City, some were from Betar City and Plenty City.

After causing some trouble for Gema and increasing the population of Xingyue Bay, Annan, who finally got rid of the reputation of "having nothing to do", could calm down and read some books——

While Annan was thinking this, The druids finally arrived.
