Let's Manage The Tower
(1) The state of the eastern city
The journey after breaking up with the children was very smooth and I was able to move on without any particular problems except for the monster hunt along the way.
And several towns and villages crossed the archaeologists had already entered the eastern city.
The city of the east becomes the third largest city in Lazeqamamia.
In the past, some countries have responded aggressively to Razek Amamiya from the Eastern Continent, but today many countries have adopted a relatively friendly attitude.
The eastern continent will be the continent that incorporates the transfer gate of the Amamiya tower after the southern continent, but not all transport is covered by the transfer gate alone.
That's why shipping is flourishing.
It is only natural that the easternmost city closest to each city in the Eastern Continent will prosper.
In addition, there are few places in the east near the city where a suitable port can be built.
Although it is impossible to cover maritime trade with the continent in one city alone, there are aspects that are compelling due to geographical conditions.
However, Lazequa Mamiya does not accept all trades in the eastern city alone, as it has a means of transport other than sea transport.
Standing on an observatory overlooking the eastern city, Kaiseki shouted with admiration.
This is amazing.
"Looks like it's expanded even more than I've seen before."
Floria nodded satisfactorily as she watched the trade ships enter and exit one after the other at the large port.
"Yes, it is."
"Mm-hmm. Since we've been here before, the expansion plan has been up. Looks like we're going further than that."
The port where the ship is anchored is not expanding enough, and trade with the Eastern Continent is increasing.
As a result, the port in the eastern part of the city is in constant state of expansion.
"Seems like it, but it seems like it's about time we didn't have an expansion location?
The examiner looked around and leaked his thoughts.
With the exception of the current and existing ports, there is almost no place for large ships to dock.
"... I see. That's probably the biggest headache problem right now."
Sylvia, who was listening next door, nodded to Floria, who said she would sigh.
Naturally, the shores of the Central Continent are not just shallow waters where ports can be built.
Rather, it is a continent with few beaches on which ships can dock.
A continent that could easily create a port town in the first place would not have been so slow to develop compared to other continents.
Razek Amamiya's rapid development was largely explained by the fact that it had no recourse to trade by the port, the transfer gate.
Nevertheless, we cannot rely solely on the transfer gate, and the port is expanding rapidly, but it is also a reality that no good place can be found in it.
Shreyne, who had shifted her gaze from the port to the city, looked as if she had noticed something.
"Is the city expansion over?
The land side of the eastern city is still flat.
For now, it does not appear that the flats are being used to expand the city.
"Oh, it's not over, it's waiting for someone to be buried somewhere new."
Razeqamamiya, along with the expansion of the port, was naturally expanding the city.
The more trade we have, the more manpower we need and the more people we have in the city.
We are expanding the city in anticipation of that, but if we don't have more people than planned, we can't help but build a building in vain.
So far, there are more buildings than there are people in the city, so we're just not expanding right now.
It is clear from the figures that the population of the eastern city is increasing in relation to the volume of trade.
Otherwise, expansion of the port would not have occurred.
If you look at the entrance and exit of the city, you can see clearly that there are many wagons going in and out to carry goods.
If you look at carriages coming out of the city gates quite frequently, even if they don't look like a queue of ants, it's obvious that the eastern city is busy trading.
However, there is still a problem.
When she realized it, Shreyn turned to Floria to confirm it.
"Even though there are so many wagons in and out, doesn't everything seem to be in order in the surrounding towns and villages?
The question clouded Florian's face.
"Ah... I still can't ignore the monster damage."
If the baggage of the wagon leaving the city is properly delivered to the surrounding towns and villages, it can be expected to develop further.
However, unfortunately, no matter how many Enemy Guards are blinking their eyes, they cannot prevent all monsters from being harmed.
As a result, towns and villages in the vicinity are currently communicating and maintaining with delivered supplies.
And it's not just around the eastern city, it's a problem common to most towns and villages on the continent.
While looking at the carriage entering and leaving the city, Kaiseki asked him to think about it.
I knew the monster wasn't hurting enough?
"I saw some relief when the Enemy was created, but it didn't get any better. Good, 40 percent, on average, about 30 percent less, don't you think? It might be a little better now."
Shreyn nodded to Florian's detailed explanation.
Is it still urgent to build up an army due to population growth?
I see.
The bigger the Enemy, the more surveillance we can get along the streets.
As a result, the damage caused by the monsters will be reduced and the traffic by the pedestrians will increase naturally.
If so, it would be better to increase the size of the army, but it is not that easy.
The army is a golden worm that does not change in any age or world.
Otherwise, if you take people as military personnel, it will affect other economic activities as well.
In the first place, Razek Amamiya has a small regular army with few outside enemies but monsters.
It has been developed by turning that amount of human resources into economic activities, so it is not easy to hire them as military personnel.
As a result, it is necessary to increase the population and increase the size of the army.
However, increasing the population is not an easy task.
The population of the Central Continent has grown rapidly since the creation of the country called Lazeqamamia, but there are still limits.
After all, it's the closest way to take time to increase it little by little.
As the story reached population growth in the Central Continent, Floria had a bitter smile on her face and then shook her neck to the side.
I don't think so. It's not my job to think about it. "
Shreyn and Sylvia laughed bitterly at Florian's words.
Well, that's true.
"Sure. Shall we think about what we should do?"
Shreyn nodded as Floria and Sylvia agreed.
Returning from the highlands overlooking the city, the examiners began preparing for the next day's departure.
Today is the day of preparation, and the next day is the day of full rest.
Colette, Peach, and the kids are supposed to come to the east town for a rest day.
I haven't decided what my children will do for their next trip.
I decide to meet him in person on a rest day and see how he's doing.
Looking forward to seeing the children for the first time in a long time, the examiner finished the day's schedule well.
