Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World Chapter 453

Stanford's return caused quite a commotion in Huxin Town. He was the first fleet commander to come back from the three fleets.

As soon as they arrived at the Lord's Mansion, someone heard the news. All kinds of people who were allowed to enter the Lord's Mansion came to the door one after another, wanting to see this very famous adventurer, but they didn't see the adventurer himself immediately, but were greeted by the waiter. The introduction to the drawing room awaits.

The adventurer himself is currently in another small meeting room next to the lord's office, having a separate detailed talk with Paul Greiman.

The lord had a general idea of the experience of the Northern Exploration Fleet.

"So, most of the people in your team are still staying in the native tribes in the north?"

"Yes, Lord Graeman, I plan to organize another fleet to go north to pick them up soon, please support me, they have all made indelible contributions to the Northwest Gulf and Aldo's geographical exploration. heroes, we must not abandon them."

Stanford earnestly and earnestly made a plea to Paul.

Paul answered him seriously: "Captain Stanford, the word 'abandoned' is not in my dictionary! I promise, you will soon get a brand new fleet, carrying a lot of supplies, with a full crew of sailors, Take the heroes home under your command."

Paul continued to reassure him: "Please allow me to express my deep condolences to those warriors who died. Their names will be engraved in the Memorial Hall, commemorated and paid tribute to by future generations. Their families will be properly resettled and freed from death." hunger and cold."

Stanford stood up and bowed deeply to Paul, "I thank you on behalf of those comrades who died."

He also visited and paid tribute to the Memorial Hall of Heroes and Heroes. The names engraved on the marble are the soldiers who died in Arda's previous wars. There will be a group of names of people outside the army. Although they did not die in the war, they are also respectable.

Maybe... my name will appear there one day, if my adventure career continues.

"Stanford! Stanford!"

"Ah? Yes, Graham-sama."

The earl's soft call pulled his thoughts back from the momentary reverie.

"The people you brought back, are they in a good state of mind?"

From the conversation just now, Paul knew that the group of people who came back first crossed the Rocky Mountains with the will to die. They didn't plan to come back alive from the beginning, but just wanted to make their burial place closer to their hometown.

"In the forest near Beiwang Town, when they guessed that they were already on the edge of Arda, everyone went crazy with joy, and everyone wept with joy. But now their emotions have stabilized, and they just want to go back See family at home."

"Yes, they will see their families soon."

After Stanford sat down again, he suggested to Paul: "Master Graham, you may be able to establish a few trading posts with permanent personnel along the coastline. There are vast forests and grasslands to the north of the Rocky Mountains. There are absolutely It is not a wild land as people imagined, the ground is covered with precious trees that are rare for human beings, and there are inexhaustible precious minerals buried in the ground, and the animals in the forest, their furs can definitely make the whole Aldo The noble lady went crazy, all in all, a huge treasury lies before us."

Paul nodded to him: "I will seriously consider your suggestion. The Government Affairs Council will soon organize experts to carefully study the logbook and surveying data you brought back, and then select a site. If possible, not only Trading post, I even hope to expand the territory there."

He laughed self-deprecatingly: "Haha, which lord doesn't want to rule more land?"

"but!"

Paul changed the subject: "If we set foot there, will there be conflicts with the local indigenous people?"

"It's very likely and even inevitable," Stanford admits, "but if you can give them more, the conflict may be resolved within a manageable range. The local Aboriginal life is very primitive, and the living conditions Much more terrifying than Arda a few years ago, and their territorial concepts are not the same as ours, and even if they were like us, they would not value the land more than the more urgent things. Hundreds of catties of iron Ingots, sacks of salt, boxes of cloth, and, oh, china, might get them to recognize your dominion over a large land."

"If so, that would be great."

Paul wanted his influence to extend further afield, but he was not inclined to violence. As a time traveler, he hopes in his heart that "people from afar are not convinced, so we can cultivate literature and virtue." Of course, this "literature" is not the same as that of others, but through advanced productive forces and advanced production relations. Suction force, like a magnet, attracts the surrounding iron filings.

If you refuse to change, refuse to integrate, well, then I won't bother you, you can entertain yourself in your own three-acre land, and slowly watch other people's lives get better and better, sooner or later , you yourself will actively seek change.

"However, I must remind you."

Stanford's tone became a little serious.

"According to my observation, the orcs on the grassland seem to have a great influence on this area."

"Prairie orc?" Paul was startled.

"Yes, there may even be a worse situation. The dwarves on Rocky Mountain may also have connections with these guys."

Dwarves, Paul had heard of this race in Stanford's previous narrative, and it was through the territory of the dwarves that they crossed the Rocky Mountains.

Originally, Paul wanted to ask Stanford to talk about the dwarves in detail after a while~www.mtlnovel.com~ Now the adventurer took the initiative to mention the dwarves again.

"You must have heard those rumors." Stanford's expression became more serious, "in the northeast of the kingdom, occasionally a small group of orcs would attack human villages, and then disappear mysteriously soon. The corresponding regulars there It is the eastern part of the Rocky Mountains, and as far as I know, there are also dwarves living on it."

Paul stared at him: "You mean, those orcs were sent by the dwarves?"

"It's just a guess, because according to our experience of crossing the mountains, the inside of the Rocky Mountains is very dangerous. The dwarves have spent hundreds of years... maybe thousands of years to shape the appearance of the mountains and rivers, and there are dwarves all over the place. Without their permission and guidance, it is very difficult or even impossible for outsiders to pass through the labyrinths, traps and passes. However, the orcs found a naturally formed path that is unknown to the dwarves. After all, the Rocky Mountains are so huge. However, if the former guess is true..."

Paul frowned.

If Stanford's previous guess is true, then Arda is also in danger of being attacked.

The Rocky Mountains... will no longer be an effective barrier.
