Chapter 340 Inner City Branch
Chapter 340 Inner City Branch
After seeing off the guards sent to her by the Beast King, Ruan Xiyue led everyone into the inner city of Hope Beast City.
The city wall is fifteen meters high, and its towering height stretches as far as the eye can see.
The city gates were wide open, and Qin Ye was already waiting there. He saw Ruan Xiyue and simply watched her quietly, waiting for her to finish handling all the matters.
Qin Ye glanced at the endless orc procession, and only walked over when Ruan Xiyue stared intently at him. He asked, "Did you bring a total of more than 14,000 orcs?"
Ruan Xiyue nodded: "The three thousand males of the Spirit Fox Tribe who remain in the city have sworn an oath to the Beast God, pledged their loyalty to me, and become the beastmen of our Beast City."
"Their mates and other males alone number seven thousand orcs. Add to that the three thousand orcs from the Cheetah Lion tribe, the slaves that Xiaweier brought me before, and the group of orcs that your brother brought me. They also gave birth to a bunch of cubs. In total, there are about twelve thousand orcs."
"After the Fox Clan joined the Cheetah Lion Tribe, I was asked to select over a thousand more orcs. Including the guards the Beast King had previously assigned to me, their partners and families also came, bringing the total to over fourteen thousand, nearly fifteen thousand orcs."
Qin Ye nodded and asked, "How do you plan to allocate their addresses?"
Seeing the detailed architectural plans of the Beast City that Qin Ye handed her, Ruan Xiyue asked, "Have all six areas been built?"
Qin Ye shook his head: "Only the residences in four areas have been completed; the residences in two other areas are still not finished."
The inner city is built in a hexagonal shape and is naturally divided into six areas. In the center is a huge banquet hall that can accommodate three hundred orcs. The building is naturally very magnificent.
Suppressing her curiosity to go and see for herself, Ruan Xiyue waved to Min Qianhua.
Min Qianhua, supporting her pregnant belly, slowly walked over and asked, "Holy Mother Xiyue, is there anything you need to do?"
Ruan Xiyue pointed to a diamond-shaped area on the city map and said, "This area is for your fox clan to live in. You can arrange it however you want. But the outermost circle is a commercial area. Don't occupy the rooms there; they are to be sold."
Qin Ye also beckoned over a robust orc. He was muscular and well-built, wearing only a fur skirt, and had a sunny and resolute appearance. He stepped forward.
Qin Ye said to him, "Take Chief Min to settle the orcs and tell her which shops are off-limits for lodging. Let her arrange the rest."
Ruan Xiyue looked at Min Qianhua: "My personal opinion is to arrange one family from the guard team for each street. Of course, it's fine if you arrange for all the guard team families to live together."
Min Qianhua nodded: "I should have arranged for my subordinates to handle these details, but I've memorized the general concepts, so don't worry!"
Ruan Xiyue nodded and then found Luo Yurou's brother to arrange an area for him, which was right next to the area assigned to Min Qianhua.
Meanwhile, Cong Xian led the orcs of the Lion Clan to the other side of the area adjacent to Luo Yurou's brother's territory.
The last area to be completed was reserved for the orcs of the Spirit Fox tribe.
Ruan Xiyue asked Qin Ye, "Is there running water in all of them?"
Qin Ye nodded: "We've found running water, and we've used the pump you mentioned to bring the water up. It's very convenient to use the water, and the excrement and wastewater from washing will all be drained away through the underground stone-lined waterways."
Ruan Xiyue was very happy: "This is much more convenient than staying in the tribe! The room will smell nice and be much cleaner!"
Soon, everyone was assigned their own houses. None of the areas were fully occupied except for the area of the Spirit Fox Tribe, which was completely full, with only a few rows of courtyards remaining unoccupied.
Qin Ye then asked Ruan Xiyue, "The sloth tribe plans to surrender entirely. Are you going to take them in?"
Ruan Xiyue frowned slightly; her feelings toward the sloth tribe were hard to describe.
I always felt that their role in Beast City wasn't very significant.
Furthermore, she has both lightning sloth cubs and regular sloth cubs. The best approach is to help the sloth tribe grow stronger, and then wait for her cubs to leave.
Her ideas were somewhat similar to those of her world, the ancient feudal system, where princes were granted fiefdoms and titles, and sent out to manage prosperous regions, instead of fighting to the death for a small plot of land at home.
So, Ruan Xiyue shared her thoughts with Qin Ye: "Initially, we were willing to take them in because we wanted to fill Beast City. However, I estimate that after next year, Beast City will definitely prosper and we won't need to add any more beastmen. We can let them bid to enter the city and buy houses."
“Tell the sloth tribe orcs that we will help them expand their tribe and teach them two survival skills. Whether they choose to grow their tribe on their own or come to the Beast City is up to them.”
Qin Ye then asked, "What skills do you plan to teach them? The area where the sloth tribe lives is a vast expanse of forests and mountains. Some skills are not suitable for their region."
Ruan Xiyue's smile widened: "Paper making. I've wanted to make this before, but it's such a good thing, so I haven't thought about bringing it out."
"But now that I have the entire Beast City as my backing, I can bring out this technology!"
Ruan Xiyue waved her hand: "Paper is a very thin and light recording material, which can replace animal hide scrolls. Tanning animal hide scrolls is too troublesome, and animal hide scrolls are thick and heavy, and are easily gnawed and corroded by insects."
"The paper is thin and portable, which is a very good thing. The key point is that it is very effective in cleaning up your bottom."
Ruan Xiyue's voice grew softer and softer. She whispered to Qin Ye that the toilet paper was the one she had taken out for everyone to clean themselves after using the restroom. Qin Ye immediately understood!
Aside from their family, other orc families are still using leaves or sticks to spank their backsides!
This must be a good product, and the benefits it can bring are obvious!
“The pottery making technique can also be taught to them; they have suitable soil from the mountains there,” Ruan Xiyue added.
Qin Ye thought for a moment and nodded: "When Ruan Xialu and Ruan Xiajun return to the sloth tribe, it won't be considered that we've mistreated them."
Ruan Xiyue nodded: "That makes sense!"
Qin Ye led Ruan Xiyue on a tour of the wide streets and orderly blocks, lined with two- and three-story houses. There were even several five-story stone houses designed by Ruan Xiyue.
Ruan Xiyue was very satisfied and hugged Qin Ye, kissing him repeatedly.
Li Miao followed behind Ruan Xiyue and waited for a moment before asking, "Where should the orcs of the Treasure-Seeking Rat Tribe live?"
Ruan Xiyue looked at Lu Qixin, who had followed her, and then said, "Those who made oaths to the Beast God have all gone to live in the Cheetah Lion Tribe area with their partners."
"The rest are all considered part of the guard team, and they are located in the areas of the Fox Clan, Cheetah Clan, and Lion Clan. There are also some scattered individuals who are temporarily living in houses on the outskirts of the inner city. It will depend on your plans later."
Lu Qixin seemed to be thinking about something, nodded slightly, and decided to check out the accommodation first before making a decision.
