The Thousand Year Dynasty
21. Next Meeting
A day later the meeting was held again to discuss the progress they have made and to plan things in the future.
Their members were still the same as the last time they had a meeting like this. Still use a large round table with a pattern of chairs that rotate two sabs.
Only this time the place was not in a tent, but rather in a large building that they would use for a meeting hall like this. The building stands right next to the inn near the central city station.
"The path to the south has been completed and it will only take half a day to go from the North Gate to the South. We have also made a road and prepared a place to start the construction of the southern region. That's it" Aksa gave a report that also opened the meeting.
"All right then. So because the path to the south is complete, then we must also immediately prepare for the construction of the southern region. Before we open the crossing path for the public" said Nata continued Aksa's speech earlier.
"For the construction of the south, leave it to me. I will start contacting people in Varun" Amithy said later from the seat behind Orland.
"Alright then, I will leave everything to you Miss Amithy" Nata replied quickly.
"For the population rule we're done" Orland immediately took over. "Starting this month, everyone can decide where to live. And what rights and responsibilities they had on the land to be granted" Orland began to give his report.
"Good Mr. Orland"
"Also, with the joining of the villagers in the eastern region, we must immediately make plans for the region" Orland added.
"I'm working on it, Mr. Orland" Nata replied later.
"Cornelius and Constantine came yesterday with some friends who intend to join us. And after our selection. We've got three people who escaped with our creteria and our conditions" Orland continued. It looks like the paper on his desk is multi-layered. "A long-time acquaintance of ours who opened a restaurant business in the city, which seemed to be less business went well there. Then a scholar interested in science, and the noble family Rosemary. They're knight nobles. Like the Silver family" Orland searched.
"As for workers, we still have a shortage of workers. Our people are still doing two or three types of jobs" the middle-aged noble continued. "So for the others, please spread the word that we need workers. It doesn't have to be those who want to be residents of this city. But who just want to work is also okay" closed Orland later.
"As requested by Mr. Orland, so do not forget to spread this news to your friends or relatives. All right, next" Nata said.
Madron looked ready with the paper in front of his desk.
"For lodging, restaurants, and bars will be completed within this biweekly period. We have also started to invite our acquaintance merchants to come see this place, and try to ride the steam train first" Madron said later.
"It's very good, Mr. Madron"
"Also with the materials we ordered from the south. We can let the traders and the minerals from the south to try the train" added Luna from the seat behind Madron.
"A very good idea. Continue Mr. Madron, Miss Luna"
"But if the train only takes half a day to travel, it will be difficult to make people stop in the middle city even to stay" this time Dirk said.
"That's right, Mr. Dirk. Your judgment is always careful. So we're going to make two train lines. One of these central cities is heading south. And the other one from this central city goes north to the west. That way inevitably they have to stop first in this place to change trains" replied Nata explained.
"Oh, right too. I understand, Mr Nata"
"For the exploration and cleaning of the southern region we will do after this central region has been absolutely we make sure it is safe" Helen took the initiative to start reporting without waiting to be invited by Nata. "And also because of the growing territory that we have to guard and supervise, I think we need to add soldiers, fighters, and knights again. Although the Rosemary family is very helpful, but I think it is not enough" the knight explained.
"Alright Miss Helen, I will make a note" Nata said, inviting Couran to read his report while he recorded something on paper.
"The goal of our work this time is to finish building the gondola and start exploring the base of the Star Alcove after that. It's just that" Couran said briefly.
"Well, really? Congratulations Mr. Couran" said Aksa enthusiastically heard Nata's remarks earlier.
"That's not a compliment, Mr. Aksa" said Couran quickly, which sounded a little slender. The others seemed to be laughing small or just smiling holding back the laughter.
"Well he continued" interrupted Nata before the room became more rowdy.
"Our plantation is still waiting for another month to make sure the land is worth planting, and after that it will still take another four to six months to harvest" Ellian began his report. "Then considering we already have a road to the fertile eastern region, then I plan to start cultivating exotic plants and fruits in that place" he continued later.
"If there's anything you need to do about it, just talk to me"
"Okay, Mr. Nata. I understand"
"Talking about the western region, I also plan to start cultivating tropical fauna in that place, and in the Sekai forest region" Selene continued.
"Just like Miss Ellian, if there's anything you need about it. You can talk to me right away" Nata said in response to Selene's remarks.
"As for the asylum we are making, the development is not too striking Besides we are still testing the trees we will plant there, also we don't have many different types of animals for an ecosystem" Selene continued.
"I think it will be slow. We also have a shortage of workers here. So maybe we won't put that first for now"
"I understand, Mr. Nata. Oh, and also some time ago the people from the fishing village came. It looks like they are suffering from a lack of food" Selene said later.
"Are sailors female and male?" Ask Lucia suddenly.
"Yes, princess. If I don't remember correctly named Nikolai and Anna"
"True, it's them. I met them before too. But it seems like they are being too careful and shutting themselves down"
"really. I also see it like that"
"But if indeed they are being hit by a disaster, we still have to help him" said Lucia then while staring at Nata.
"We may be able to work, because now we have fertile soil that we can plant crops quickly. But that is not a guarantee, because we are also short of workers" Nata said in response to Lucia's gaze.
"And also if it is not wrong, I heard the fishermen only consume black shellfish. Which means there are many black shells" Selene added.
"Are black shells dangerous?" Ask Nata later.
"Black war is harmless. In fact, it is an expensive food that is often served at the dinner of the nobles. That's because black shells are very difficult to breed. Because they need a habitat with a good environment" explained Selene at length.
"So you could say; if black shellfish can live in these waters, then any marine animals can certainly live there" added Selene later.
"Oh, it means that it is right to help the fishing village" said Nata quickly
"It's not very sincere" Lucia grumbled later.
