Modo City, Chishui Town.

This land is near the sea, and whenever it catches, a large number of red fish swim back. The nearby river surface is red, and the name comes from this.

It was August. Because of the different time of urban construction, wheat harvests will take place sooner or later, and Chishui Town is the last batch of harvested towns. At this time, most of the grain had been dried and collected, and a man dressed in an official was taking his entourage to go door to door. Modo City has its own rules, and all grain transactions cannot be carried out privately. The excess grain is purchased uniformly, and then the city hall will stabilize the price. The price of grain is determined according to the market price, and the initial collection was smooth, but when the second row was received, there was a little riot.

“Not selling.”

"My family has a large population and consumes a lot of food."

The person who spoke was a man dressed as a wealthy businessman, speaking in the dialect of the northern border. At this moment, his little eyes narrowed and looked around, as if he was arguing with the official in front of him.

Pete frowned and stared at the man in front of him. His trip was always smooth, but he didn't expect to encounter trouble here. He glanced at the servant behind the other party and said, "How many people do you have? How much food is consumed? How much harvest is this year?"

"Come."

"Take the file of his registered population."

soon.

The entourage then brought a file from the mayor. Pete just glanced at it and couldn't help but smile and said, "You have only twelve people in your family, and you can eat so much food? I heard that you have an acquaintance in the port. Are you planning to sell food privately?"

Speaking of this, Pete's expression suddenly became cold.

The rich businessman came to his sweat as soon as he heard that he was cold. He didn't want to sell grain but was just preparing to hoard it. Now the world is getting turbulent, and the price of grain is rising all the time. If there is a way to transport it out, it is naturally the best. But this thing cannot be mentioned in public, because recently Modo City has introduced a new law, and all grain is strictly prohibited from being sold privately, otherwise they will be imprisoned.

Pete saw many such people all the way, and said bluntly: "Grain is purchased at the market price, hoarding is strictly prohibited, and private transactions are strictly prohibited."

"The violators confiscate the land and send it to hard labor."

After saying that, Pete was not polite and ordered someone to go and pull the food. Then he calculated and threw a bag of silver coins in front of the other party.

“This is Modo City.”

Pete thought for a while, came to the wealthy businessman in front of him and said in a deep voice: "It's not the northern border or the South China Sea. What you need to learn here is to abide by the rules, otherwise you will definitely have to pay a price."

Since the city hall demanded the unified management of food, they have encountered a lot of trouble.

Some people want to hoard food, fearing that prices will rise in the future. Some people plan to secretly transport them out and sell them because of the bumper harvest this year. In this case, the officials of Modo City have always been unreasonable and there is no reason, because the current policy is food control. Those who are unwilling to sell food because they are dissatisfied with the price of Modo City and are reluctant to sell food to work as coolies. Soren's rule has never been blindly kind, and there are even more evil people in Modo City. They will follow the rules but their methods are cold enough. This year, the prices of grain from the Big Six are rising steadily. Many of the first batch of people who harvested in Modo City, whether civilians or wealthy businessmen, have the intention to transport food outside to sell. In this case, the measures of the Modo City Hall are mandatory purchases. There is no need to make any reason at all, because without Modo City, there is nothing they have now. If they cannot be expected to be grateful, they can only be maintained by law.

at the same time.

In the port area of ​​Modo City, ships filled with grain are also waiting.

This year, Modo City ushered in a bumper harvest, but all the grain was forcibly purchased by the city hall at market prices. At this time, the ships filled with grain were ready to go to sea, and the fleet would be transported all the way to Fengchi Hills.

This time the government order has little impact on ordinary people.

Because the prices in Modo City have always been very stable, the merchants who have suffered the most are the ones who hope to make double or even triple the price for private sales of food. However, everything in Modo City is for Sauron. In the face of the general trend of developing Fengspit Hills, anyone who has his own small calculations will be crushed.

The mansion of the city lord.

The businessman's dissatisfaction was spread to Galia through some channels, but after learning about this incident, Galia just said lightly: "Catch a few people who take the lead and deal with it."

The plan of Wind Spear Hills could not be disturbed.

Retraction of refugees means huge food consumption, and Modo City will need to continuously provide supplies in the future. For these merchants who just want to make profits, Goria doesn't mind catching a few typical examples and killing them.

……………………

A small episode has little impact.

However, some people who are interested still found some signs from clues. Modo City implemented the "food control" law, and then other supplies seemed to be subject to certain restrictions. Some smart people have realized that Modo City seems to be going to fight because the city hall is currently stockpiling materials. The chamber of commerce, which was originally ready to move, immediately became honest, because during the war, Modo City never ruthlessly killed people.

Wind spear hills, border.

This team of ragged refugees were sent to a shack that stretched for several miles. They would wait here for three days, first checking for diseases, then counting the population, registering their names and household registrations, and then being sent to other places in Fengmao Hills.

In just three days, Fengmao Hill accepted nearly 15,000 refugees.

And this number is still increasing, because when the news of relief was heard, refugees from the entire southern region were approaching here.

The agricultural church has sent more than one hundred pastors, and the same river goddess and the new bud goddess have also sent pastors, who are responsible for guiding ditches and irrigation. After a simple rest, these refugees are put into busy work.

Dig ditches, reclaim land, repair roads, and build city walls.

In order to deal with the subsequent impact of the Saint Calamity, Modo City sent a large number of clay golems to prepare for building the city walls on the south and north of the Fengspit Hills. At the same time, these two places will each hold a permanent corps of more than 10,000 people.

The population controlled by Soren has increased dramatically.

Fengmao Hill itself has a population of more than 100,000, and after accepting a large number of refugees, the number quickly exceeded 200,000.

Following this progress, the population controlled by Modo City and Fengmao Hills will soon exceed one million. The expanded population means a continuous stream of faith, and the accepted refugees quickly expanded to more than 30,000. Many of these people gave up the gods they originally believed in and turned to the command of Sauron and the goddess of agriculture.

The beliefs of ordinary people are not strong in themselves, and it is possible to believe in other gods after a little guidance.

During the period when the Holy Catastrophe had not exploded, the pastors in the Church of Gods did the most to win faith and expand the influence of the gods.

Sauron's believers increased by tens of thousands in a short period of time and continued to increase. Large-scale agricultural reclamation also brought benefits to the goddess of agriculture. Her clergy is closely related to all this, and a little guidance can lead to a large amount of faith.

All plans are underway in an orderly manner.

Recently, a bank opened by the Goddess of Wealth appeared in Modo City. Currently, it only accepts deposit business and does not charge any fees. It can be exchanged in other temples of Wealth on the South Coast at any time with a voucher.

Bottomless abyss, shadow kingdom of gods.

In front of a magnificent temple, thousands of demon hunters were ready to go. Since controlling two-thirds of the land in God's country, the heroic spirits in God's country temporarily slowed down their expansion. A large number of potential prayers were transformed into new demon hunters. At this time, most of the heroic spirits in God's country had become demon hunters, and the number had reached thousands.

Metals from the Forgotten Land are continuously sent into God's country.

These resources were forged into weapons and armor under the day and night of the prayers. At this time, the combat legion in the God's country had expanded to more than 10,000 people.

Unlike the army in Modo City, most of the prayers in the country of God are middle and high-level professions, and there is almost no cannon fodder.

Gurumba Arena Arena.

Since surrendering to the evil god, the Barol Flame Demon Zoron seemed to have stopped his expansion plan, but he was still constantly gathering the demons. Some were sent to the mining area to mine desperately, while the other part was committed to the battle to wipe out the undead. Almost every day, thousands of timid demons were sent to the barracks of Gurumba Arena, and then 90% of the timid demons died in the battle, and most of those who survived were born and promoted.

This is an extremely cruel rule to eliminate.

In just half a month, tens of thousands of cowardly demons died, but with it, the birth of more intermediate demons was followed.

Now the worms near the Abyss Blood Pool have been reduced by half. Under Zoro's crazy exploitation, even the demons transformed by the Abyss Blood Pool can no longer keep up with the consumption progress.

At this time, the demon army in Gurumba Arena had expanded to a scale of about 50,000 people, of which half of the middle-level demons accounted for half. These demons were concentrated in the military camp. The demon goblins in the magnificent forging factory were supervising the hard workers to work hard and constantly forge weapons and equipment for them.

The breath of war is coming.

Almost everyone expected that the demon lord Zoro was preparing for a big battle, but they were still unable to determine the target of the attack.

……………………

Time passes by little by little.

Just as August was about to end, a grand temple was suddenly built in Modo City to serve the goddess of agriculture.

At the same time, a dazzling divine light also rose from the temple, which was invisible to mortals, but both gods and legendary professions could sense it. This is a temple favored by the goddess of agriculture. In the shrouded golden light, a beautiful and charming woman also walked into the depths of the temple.

This day.

The goddess of agriculture came to Modo in person and settled in the Grand Temple prepared by Sauron for her!

Hundreds of druids and high-level priests came to Modo overnight. They were preparing for the greatest harvest celebration in Modo, but in secret, they were guarding against any possible attacks with the Temple of Shadow.

It's also this day.

Sauron left Modo City and headed to the bottomless abyss.

According to the content of the True God Covenant, the goddess of agriculture will personally take charge of Modo City in the next half month!

Chapter completed!
