401 Slowly build a basic disk
Andonara's return also means that the political situation in Delbon City has once again been completely stabilized.
The Magic Tower is indeed the biggest force in Delbon City.
But there are always some people who want to make small moves, such as the people in the City Lord’s Mansion.
Because the magic tower is too small, Roland often runs around, and Vincent only focuses on major issues and overall situations. After all, he also has to study and learn magic, and it is impossible for him to do everything personally.
So where Vincent doesn't pay much attention to it, there are prone to some loopholes.
Nobles and businessmen are good at grasping loopholes and making small moves.
Andonara's return not only means that the Magic Tower has once again strengthened her own strength, but also that Andonara can still understand some basic political situations as the queen, otherwise she would not be disappointed with the royal family and turned to Roland.
Besides, Andonara has the maid Christina next to her. Although Christina is useless during the day, at night, some more cumbersome paperwork can be handed over to her to handle.
The Magic Tower is willing to protect her, not let her be a vase and eat without doing anything.
After two days of rest, Roland took Andonara to the dock to visit Hawke and Link.
At this time, after more than ten days of personnel expansion and reorganization, Matou was already in a prosperous state again.
After all, Hawke and Link built the dock from scratch and treated ordinary dock workers very well. The entire city of Delbon saw it. When they came back, there were quite a few workers willing to follow them again.
It is still the top floor of the highest building in the pier. The view here is so smooth that it can just see the view of the entire pier.
Hawke set up a table here to host Roland and Andonara.
He made a hot pot, and it was cold now, so it was just right to eat hot pot.
Link didn't come. Although the dock had been rebuilt, there was still a lot to deal with.
Hawke picked up a piece of cattle tripe for himself and pointed to the river surface that had already formed a thin layer of ice: "The workers said that this year is colder than in previous years. In the past, the river surface was not frozen, and it is still early winter, so I guess the poor in the city are a little sad this time."
Roland swallowed the words "You mean, let me find a way to help those poor people?"
"Yes." Hawke nodded without hesitation: "Now, you are the only one with this ability in Delbon City."
Roland looked up at him and found that... there was already a layer of white thin ice on both sides of the river that was originally flowing endlessly, only in the middle. Because the water flow was relatively turbulent and there was no freezing, forming a flow path between ice and water.
He thought about it for a while and remembered that the first winter they entered the game, the Delbon River was indeed not frozen.
"I'll do my best." Roland thought for a while and responded to this matter, and then he said, "In addition, this time I came to you to talk to you about the Seal Land. I want to form a team to see if you and Link want to be together?"
Hawke thought for a while and shook his head: "I won't go. Just the matter of the dock is enough to be troublesome. At least you have to wait until the matter of the dock is completely stable before you can be qualified to say something else."
"Then introduce a reliable priest to our team." Roland thought for a while and said, "It must be reliable."
Although Roland himself can also heal minor injuries and gain some benefits, it is incomparable to the priest's professional treatment.
Hawke couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard Roland reiterate the "reliable" main character.
He understood that during this period, the several tricks of the Blade Wings Guild did make Roland have a big prejudice against their guild. Hawke smiled bitterly and continued, "Don't worry, this time is definitely reliable, but it may take about ten days for her to come here in another city."
"Okay, let's wait for him." Roland nodded: "It just took these ten days to think about how to accommodate the poor who might be frozen to death."
After that, Roland ate hot pot casually and left the dock.
He did not return to the Magic Tower, but took Andonara to the city lord's mansion.
Stepping on the frost and snow on the grass, Roland walked to the gate of the city lord's mansion and pushed it away.
Although there were two guards standing guard, none of them dared to stop him.
The student's black wooden door opened, and a heat wave rushed out inside, forming a significant contrast with the cold temperature outside.
At a glance, you can see the red flames burning in the fireplace, and a maid is specifically adding firewood to the fireplace.
At the small dining table in the living room, the lord's wife and daughter were drinking afternoon tea. They were dressed very lightly, after all, there was a fireplace, and the living room was very warm.
Roland found that every time she came, the mother and daughter seemed to be having afternoon tea.
It's either on the balcony or in the garden, and now in front of the fireplace.
It's really leisurely.
When they saw Roland, these two were not as scared as before. They stood up and enthusiastically invited Roland and Andonara to drink wine and share delicious food together.
Andonara agreed. Firstly, she really liked the feeling of women gathering together for afternoon tea, and secondly, she felt that Roland had no need to follow Roland when she came to talk about the important matters.
Roland knocked on the study room on the third floor, walked in, sat down under the owner's extremely unfriendly gaze, and asked directly: "In the past, what measures did you do to prevent poor ordinary people from freezing and starving to death in winter."
"No need." Little John said coldly: "Those untouchables who do not work hard and cannot even endure a winter will die. We are already very kind to help them collect the bodies."
"How can the population rise if you don't protect ordinary people?" Roland sighed.
"How is that possible?" Little John laughed disdainfully: "Our John family was lord here more than two hundred years ago. The population was less than 400,000, but now the entire city, plus the nearby towns and villages, has exceeded one million."
"What a tough life." Roland was a little impressed.
"Unparalleries are weeds. As long as you don't deliberately eradicate them, they will grow more and more."
Roland looked at John Little and said, "It seems that our philosophy is still very different. By the way, I want to borrow your household registration official for a while and ask him to cooperate with me."
"Do you still need my consent to do things?" Little John's words were full of sarcastic spirit.
Roland didn't care: "I just want to give you a voice, and I also want to tell those people or forces who secretly support you. Next, our magic tower will have a big move. It's best not to jump out at this time, as I will be very difficult to talk to at that time."
Little John said without a smile: "How dare I! I am afraid of death."
"Life well, don't think too much."
Roland left this sentence and left the study.
Then he went downstairs and took Andona Rayang long.
Little John was furious upstairs and threw things around. After this winter, the reputation of the Magic Tower will further increase, and his chances of counterattack will become increasingly slim.
