Lord of the Oasis Chapter 652: .Cumberland’s small development

The gnome artisans were quiet for a moment after the little girl spoke.

Then there was a lot of noise, until I got into the carriage, which also made the whole carriage very noisy.

Kant glanced at the girl sitting in the front row and continued to talk to her: "What's your name? Are you their leader?"

"Well, my name is Vivian," the girl said timidly.

"Don't talk to little Vivien all the time," interjected the dwarf sitting in the back.

"Why?" asked the dwarf sitting next to him.

"Because she would be angry."

"I think she's just going to be mad at you."

"Wrong, you're wrong. She's just a stubborn and weird guy."

"That's because you aroused her temper..."

The two dwarfs argue, and the red hair on the top of their heads seems to turn redder. Like autumn maple leaves.

Kant shook his head, looked at Vivian, and found that her face seemed to be red all the time, whether it was because of nervousness or what.

I thought that this leader was quite special, so I didn't take the initiative to say anything.

Arriving in Cumberland, the dwarf craftsmen crowded out of the car, startling the farmers who were resting in the fields.

It's the first time they've seen a race other than Dehrim on this occasion.

Kant took the group to the arranged accommodation and wanted them to rest for a night. Work from tomorrow.

But after listening to his plan, all the gnome craftsmen, represented by the leader, raised objections.

"We want to get to work right away," said Vivian from the front of the line.

"Why? You just arrived here, you should leave some time to familiarize yourself with the water and soil environment here." Kant expressed his consideration.

"Our country is about to move, and we need to hurry back," explained Vivian.

"Moving? Are you going to move the entire dwarf country?" Kant asked with a look of surprise.

"Yes, we move every half century."

"Why? Is there any reason?" Kant wondered.

"No, I just don't want to be in the same place for too long."

Kant recalled hearing about the habit of gnomes before. He was shocked when he found out. After thinking for a while, Kant asked, "So you guys have to hurry back and help?"

Vivian, and the gnome artisans behind her nodded.

"Alright then, I'll go get the blueprints. You guys go to the construction site first." Kant said to everyone. Turn around and leave here.

My subordinates led everyone to the location of the initial survey.

When Kant reached the shore, the sound of steel crashing was heard far away.

Then saw a group of gnome craftsmen using a variety of tools to cut the base material stacked under the rain cloth into whole strips.

"You start work now?" Kant asked loudly.

"These are the basic preparations. All our projects start from here." All the gnome craftsmen were working hard, and only Vivian, who was standing idle, answered Kant's question.

Kant stepped forward, handed her the blueprint and asked, "Is Miss Vivian in charge of the commander-in-chief?"

"I didn't participate just because my hands were injured. The hands of the dwarfs are gifts from God. Without these hands, the perfect work cannot be completed. How can I destroy everyone's efforts?" Vivian explained with a smile.

"That's it," Kant responded apologetically, "I believe Vivian should be very good as a conductor. This project will trouble you."

"Thank you, leave it to us. Don't worry." Vivian took the blueprint.

After some hesitation, Kant said goodbye and left.

I heard the foreign secretary's advice that when it is a gnome construction project, you must not interfere on the way.

Nowadays, they do have such a habit.

I don't need to worry about it anymore.

Hope to see the finished product eventually.

Two months have passed, and Cumberland's agriculture and animal husbandry has begun to bear fruit. After being processed into a variety of finished products, the first shipments of Cumberland's exports have been catalogued.

The pace of construction of the North Shore harbour is also at its peak and is expected to be officially completed by August.

These days, although the dwarf craftsmen always go out early and return late to work on the construction site, they are also familiar with the people who take care of their living and food.

After learning about it, Kant knew that the gnomes not only have first-class construction skills, but are also good at singing and dancing. Especially the dance they composed and created, which is simply interesting and beautiful. It surprised Kant and the others.

But Kant has only seen it once, because he has often traveled between the Elf country and Cumberland recently because of the North Market. Spend more time in the carriage than in bed.

Under such hard work, there is still no progress in the market.

Because the homeless people in the mountains do not listen to the official persuasion at all, it seems that the lazy nature of the elves is really deep in the bones.

Not only that, the key is that the Elf King said at the beginning that he would fully support the project, but now when Kant proposes to use his real power to bend the refugees. The attitude of the palace has been unclear.

Vague without giving a final explanation, which really bothers Kantlau.

On the third trip to the main city of the Elf Kingdom, Kant finally met the Elf King.

"Long time no see, General Kant." The Elf King greeted.

"I've always wanted to see you, but I just didn't see it," Kant said.

"I heard from the attendant~IndoMTL.com~ You came here this time for the refugees in the mountains?" The Elf King avoided Kant's eyes and asked with a start.

"Yes, I want to ask His Highness to assist me. Let the refugees in the mountains agree to the planning of this market." Kant said bluntly.

"Of course I will practice what I said at the beginning. It's just that General Kant, can't you think of any other way?" The Elf King said hesitantly.

"Your Highness must know the temperament of the people of the Elf country better than I do. For people of other races like me, I really can't think of any other way." Kant said word by word.

The anguish of being unable to do anything since today has been simmering in my heart, and the tone of my speech is more straightforward at this time.

"It's just, since I took power. I have never made any decisions that affect people's livelihood. I don't know what the effect will be this time...?"

"His Royal Highness did not try, of course, the result was unexpected. I was just worried that His Highness would betray the enthusiasm and kindness of the Foreign Minister." Kant explained from another angle.
