Lord of the Oasis - Chapter 649
Chapter 649: The Supreme and Glorious Kant
The Elf King shook his head, he said, “Most of the undead soldiers have been chased out of the elven colony by Commander Bunduk. Lord Kant, when you return, you must give my regards to Commander Bunduk. If it weren’t for his proper command, I might not be able to stand here and talk to you.”
The Elf King’s expression showed his respect for Commander Bunduk and Kant saw all of this.
Kant nodded and continued, “I will sincerely express the Elf King’s gratitude to Commander Bunduk.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble you!” the Elf King said.
“Elf King, I’m sure you know the purpose of my visit.”
Kant said directly, beckoning his attendant to take the note.
He handed the treaty to the Elf King and said solemnly, “Elf King, now is the time to honor your promise.”
The Elf King laughed loudly, he said, “Lord Kant, don’t you believe in me? “I will immediately arrange for you to cede your territory. After all, you have once again saved the elven colony. This 15% of the territory was originally vacant. Since you want this piece of land, then of course there is no problem.”
In the afternoon, the Elf King completed these procedures.
And that 15% of the land was also handed over to Kant.
Kant led 1,000 soldiers to live in this land.
This land was still in an undeveloped status in the elven colony. Most of the soil here was still in its original state, and there was not much fertility. Kant was going to fertilize this land, he suggested that the Elf King transport all the excrement of the city-state over, while Kant would inject the excrement into the soil. There was still a large amount of fresh water on this land, so Kant and the others’ drinking water was not a problem.
Kant also set up some craftsmen to design a device that could desalinate seawater into freshwater, and then transport the seawater to this territory through pipes.
The elven colony was located closer to the sea, so this project could be completed easily.
As for the construction of the houses, Kant did not have any intention of slacking off. With the craftsman elves’ help from the elven colony, overall, this territory had begun to prosper under Kant’s setup.
The Elf King was indescribably surprised to see Kant’s outstanding achievements. In his opinion, humans were a stupid race. They only knew how to create offensive items. However, what he did not expect was that the construction of the human houses and various facilities were also perfect.
He suddenly felt that the elves were not the noblest and most intelligent race in the world. Most of the elves were lazy. They were not as diligent as humans.
They often spent three days fishing and two days racing the net, and could not do anything at all. However, Bunduk and Pam had only made the Elf King understand one thing, and that was to truly succeed or to be invincible, the first thing that was needed was unity. Just as Bunduk had said, if the entire group was like a pile of loose sand, then this team would not last long.
The Elf King also hoped that his people could unite and fight against the outside world, but his leadership ability did not allow him to do so. He was just a small manager, and those ministers also held power.
In fact, the Elf King also knew that some ministers were secretly sending their families to a safe place. As for the other ordinary people in this country, their lives and deaths were nothing to those elven ministers, this was also one of the saddest parts of this country.
It was also one of the things that gave the Elf King a huge headache.
Seeing that Kant’s territory was beginning to be constructed decently, the Elf King’s heart was filled with endless emotions. If he could have such an ability one day, then the elven colony would definitely not be in its current state, but was it possible?
The Elf King silently thought that this possibility was very small. It could be said that his ministers did not take him seriously as a king. Many times, he hoped that he could get some help from his ministers, but the ministers only valued their own lives more than anything else. This was also why the elven colony would continue to fall rather than soaring to the skies.
As for the displaced citizens, the Elf King naturally wanted to help them, but he did not have the ability or the financial resources. If possible, he also hoped that every citizen of the elven colonies could have a hot meal instead of enduring the cold and hunger every day. This was not his original intention as the Elf King.
Kant’s estate was still under construction, and Kant was quite satisfied with the results. However, there were still many wooden houses that were not decent enough. If they were affected by a strong wind, they would still be destroyed, Kant found a craftsman and asked him to go to the northern domain to find a plant called the thousand-faced flower. As long as this plant was mixed into the wood, the toughness of the wood would be greatly strengthened.
Most of the wood was directly taken from the trees, but it had not been processed. The wood that had been basked in the sun was still wet and dry. Only by modern equipment could it be completely turned into air-dried wood, however, in such a place, Kant really did not have the ability to make tools to completely dry the wood.
That was why he asked the craftsmen to gather some of these materials and mix them into the wood. The wood would evaporate water faster, and it won’t even take two days and nights. This would also greatly increase the construction speed.
Anyway, under Kant’s wise leadership, these workers worked twice as hard and quickly built more than twenty wooden houses.
These wooden houses could provide more than 1,000 residents of Drondheim to move in. According to Kant’s estimation, more than 3,000 residents of Drondheim could move in. After all, the territory of the elven colony was still very large.
This 15% territory had 64 square kilometers of land, which was enough for more than 10,000 residents of Drondheim to live in. However, Kant did not want so many residents to move in. The main purpose of this place was to develop agriculture, to produce agricultural products, or to raise some livestock, these were all things Kant considered.
