Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Ryan just casually gave a few words on how to settle the upcoming orcs. Barbara didn’t care too much about the meaning contained in it when she was young, but when Barbara informed Adams of this, the latter immediately realized When he reached the meaning of these short sentences, Ryan was slightly startled, and then he realized what he was. His mood immediately became excited, which caused Adams to rush out of his office in a very gloomy manner. All his assistants were taken aback. I don't know why the boss who has always been prudent behaved so differently today.

Adams' mind turned quickly. He first rushed to the practice field and called Vivienne and Adela, then after thinking about it, he took another turn and pulled up the Ai who was urging Gagore and the others to practice. Lendo, this was walking towards Ryan's private library happily.When Adams and his party appeared in front of Ryan, Ryan, who had just sent Reid away, was shocked. The latter thought that something big had happened to Cassano, otherwise, why did everyone come?

After everyone sat down, before Ryan asked everyone what they were coming, Adams repeated what Barbara had just conveyed. Ryan patiently listened and nodded, admitting that this was what he meant, but Adams forbeared it. With excitement, he said, "Ryan, do you really plan to accept foreigners? And it's a permanent one?"

Ryan wondered why Adams was so excited. He said in an understatement: "It doesn't seem to be a problem, right? Am I also an outsider? But I now regard this as my second hometown, even my parents. I got here."

"Of course I understand what you mean, but Ryan, do you know the status of Cassano in the hearts of humans on the entire continent?" Adams asked rhetorically.

Ryan shook his head. Regarding such rumors, he really cared very little, and it was not surprising that he was not clear.

"Now that Senat has an affair with the Legion of Undead, many places in his rule area are already uninhabited for hundreds of miles. Of course, there is no need to mention it. The prairie has just experienced war, and the aboriginal Clay people either fled or became semi-affiliated. Ping lives under the rule of the imperial capital, and they don’t even have the right to freely choose their lifestyles and regions.” Adams sighed slightly when he said this, thinking that fortunately he was a Cassano and not a Clay, otherwise that kind of A tragic fate will also fall on him.

"Next is Mochizuki City. This is a city with a very long history. It has formed its own unique atmosphere, which is why it has the reputation of being the capital of magic. But unfortunately, those magic families with hundreds of years of history place too much emphasis on tradition. , They despise all emerging affairs, which has caused the entire city to slowly decline." Adams just clicked a few words. After all, Mochizuki City and Iron Fist Castle are now allies, and Ryan’s men even have the pair of sister flowers. Students, talking too much will make others lose face.

"Freedom Paradise, what a great name it sounds, Freedom City? Haha, this is the funniest joke." Adams said in a more contemptuous tone: "This is a city full of smells, and its only The rule of action is money. With money, you have the power to do whatever you want in this city. People are naked interest relationships. Although this sounds fair, it’s actually not like that. After the wealth of the people gathered in the hands of a few people, the so-called justice and morality became a stone in the stinking ditch. Everyone knows its existence, but no one wants to make himself smelly in order to get in touch with it. "

"Where is the imperial capital? I have been there several times, and I think it is very good." Lane knew that Adams was right, but he also said that he tried his best to hear some good news from Adams.

"Yes, on the surface, or from your position, the emperor is beautiful." Adams ignored Ryan's face and pointed out sharply: "The area controlled by the emperor is indeed very large, but many places are just hills or deserts. , The real area for people to live in is only two-thirds of the actual control area of ​​the imperial capital, and the cultivated land and pasture that feed the imperial capital’s nearly 20 million people have to be removed. In this way, in fact, there are not many areas where the imperial capital can really live The slums in the imperial capital city are the best portrayal! And you, Archmage Ryan, I am afraid that there are very few opportunities to contact the slums, right?"

"Oh, what are you trying to say." Ryan smiled bitterly at Adams's words, because the other party told the truth. Although Ryan went to the imperial capital many times, he went through the streets and alleys during the defense of the imperial capital. There was only one time in the slum, which was the one that followed Yosha invisibly.In that case, Ryan is naturally unlikely to be in the mood to slowly appreciate what the slums are all about.

"In fact, this is what I mean." Adams shrugged his shoulders and continued: "Now there are only so few forces on the entire continent, and they each have their own weaknesses, and it is almost impossible to be affected by such weaknesses. The change can only be slightly eased. Could the imperial capital turn so many farmers into free people? Then the tens of millions of people in the imperial capital will have no food to eat in the next year! Could Mochizuki City change its traditions? Is it still the capital of magic? Freedom, the root of its existence is gold coins. Without gold coins, this city would collapse and become a pile of ruins."

"Only Cassano can. Because Cassano's pillar is you!" Adams said impassionedly: "This city is new and full of vitality. Everything is driven by your will, as long as your thinking is not confused. , This city is sheltered under your wings and thrive.” Adams said: “However, the population of Cassano alone cannot support the rapid growth of a giant city. Therefore, your handling of the orcs, It will become a model for the future development of this city, which is why I take it so seriously."

"Since you have officially accepted the orcs, does this mean that Cassano has begun to embrace the entire continent? Since the orcs can join Cassano's mercenary group, or become the Cassano Sheriff Is it possible for them to join the army? Can they set up their own chamber of commerce? Can they learn the way of human farming, can they have their own farmland? Pastures? If they are all possible, how to define What is the difference between a Cassano and an outsider?"

Ryan nodded solemnly. He was originally a very vague idea, but after Adams said this, he also fully realized the importance of this matter. Ryan thought for a moment, raised his head and said to Adams: "I don't Think that humans are greater and noble than orcs, and do not think that humans must enslav other races. Since we can become allies with dwarves and elves, then we can also become friends with other races, such as these naturalized orcs. If orcs It’s the same way of life that relied on plundering humans for a living, then they are our mortal enemies, and once the orcs decide to live their lives according to the human lifestyle, then they also have the qualifications to become human friends, we might as well call it It is a naturalized orc, although this title is a little bit unpleasant."

"Since the orcs can also be part of Cassano, so can humans, elves or dwarves, and even all races, willing to obey the laws of the empire and Cassano, rely on their own efforts to support themselves, then they can all become the future A member of Cassano. But this process does not happen overnight, it requires a certain amount of effort. As a foreign migrant, you must learn to try to integrate into the city, and this time cannot be less than 5 years. We can use The time when he started to pay the tax is used as a proof of calculation. I remember that the residents of Cassano enjoy the lowest tax on the mainland, but these outsiders who want to join Cassano do not have this right. They have to pay more than real Cassano people. For example, they pay 25% more taxes each year, and then reduce them by 5% each year. After 5 years, they will become formal Cassano people and enjoy Cassano’s legal protection like other Cassano people. Of course, this process It’s not without shortcuts, such as joining Cassano’s army. If they can build their merits, they can naturally reduce the time for this examination accordingly."

"Of course, the specific definition of these matters is up to you. I believe you can make a more reasonable method." Ryan pushed the matter to Adams very unkindly, and then embarrassed towards the latter. He smiled and continued: “Of course it’s not that you can only rely on money to obtain this qualification. We have to make everyone understand that the Cassano people pay taxes, not for their lord pleasure, but for construction and Protect the territory here. I think Cassano may eventually become a super city, centered on the Iron Fist Castle and has many small cities or settlements on the outside. All of this is not only dependent on my own strength, but rather Rely on everyone's efforts."

"Anyone who puts in his own efforts in this process is qualified to become a Cassano, enjoy the results of his hard work, and will also fight hard to fight those who have different goals. In short, Cassano is everyone’s Cassano, not a person’s personal favorite, and I also hope that eventually this place can become a vibrant city, without too much unfairness, not too much difference between nobles and commoners , There is not much discrimination. Everyone living here can freely choose his own life under the premise of abiding by the law of Cassano. When the foreign enemy comes, we don’t need to mobilize loudly. The weapons in their hands stood on the battlefield against aggression, because they were fighting to encircle their homeland, not for the damn lord who had never seen it before!"
