The house assigned to Gordon is in the South District, which is also Residential Area for most people. His blacksmith shop is located on Blacksmith Street in the East District, and it is also allocated free of charge.
Walking from the central area to the south area, Gordon and his wife shook their hair in an attempt to dry their wet hair. However, even though they were wet, the corners of their mouths still remained upturned.
This city is really a very interesting city. They saw many things that they would not have seen in the original world Regan.
Originally, I wanted to go home and change into new clothes, but on the way back, my attention was attracted by a bunch of people.
"What are they doing?" the wife asked, pointing to the pole erected over there.
Gordon was also confused and didn't understand what happened.
"You guys wait here, I'll go take a look."
With that said, Gordon squeezed into the crowd and saw the innermost scene in the crowd. More than a dozen strong men with bull heads and horns were carrying poles. In the middle were two young men with extraordinary temperament who were tinkering with something.
Still not understanding what this was going on, Gordon tugged on the clothes of the person next to him and asked, "Excuse me, what are you doing? Why are there so many people around here?"
The person who was called turned around and looked at Gordon, and replied, "You just arrived, right?"
Gordon nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I just came here today. I run a blacksmith shop. Please take care of me in the future."
"Then let me introduce you. That one is Lord Viscount and the older one is Lord Isaac!"
"Lord Viscount?!" Gordon screamed, but quickly reacted and covered his mouth, whispering, "Why is Lord Viscount here?"
You must know that he has been in Cosi City for so many years. Except for some major festivals, Regan has no chance to see Count Grein on weekdays.
"You people from other cities have little experience. Lord Viscount often appears in Nafu City. Don't yell when you see him in the future. Just salute from a distance. Don't come forward and disturb Lord Viscount."
"Okay, okay, I won't offend Lord Viscount." Gordon claimed in a low voice, "Then what are Lord Viscount doing?"
Seeing the other person's humble look, the man couldn't help but smile, "You don't have to look like this, Lord Viscount. Even if you come up to say hello to him, he will respond to you in a friendly way. This will disturb him..."
"As for what he is doing here? I don't know the details yet. I just heard from others that he wants to build some street lights to light up the road at night..."
"How long will it take?" Isaac complained, "You promised before that you would let me get the airship after the war. Now I have asked the mages to get the materials out, and the work is about to start. Why don't you drag me over to install the street lights?"
"Quickly, very quickly, show these Minotaur a few times and let them install it later." Claire advised, "After the installation is finished, we can come over and carve the inscription on it."
"What you said is simple. There is a street light every ten meters. Look how big Nafu City is. We are exhausted from carving inscriptions behind it!"
Although Isaac complained, he did not stop the work in his hands. He strictly followed the steps to install the street lights in place. Minotaur on the side watched with wide eyes and remembered it firmly in his mind.
"Don't be in a hurry, take your time." Claire said with a smile, "And you can also ask the mages under you to come over and engrave. If you share the workload, it will be completed quickly."
"Harmful!" Isaac sighed, "I understand why you want to install street lights, but there is no need to install so many. Even some places in the royal capital don't have Magic Lamp lighting."
Claire shook his head, "No, street lights must be installed wherever there are people in Nafu City. I have to be responsible for them."
"Forget it, I can't help you." Isaac spread his hands, "These street lights cost a lot of money every month, don't you feel bad?"
Claire flew to the top of the street lamp and installed the last magic structure of the street lamp. After clapping a round fist-sized Magic Artifacts in his hand, the street lamp lit up. Then he floated down with relief and replied, "You can't spend any less money, and in a few days, those minerals will create value."
The technology of this magic street lamp is already very mature in this world. Claire does not need to specialize in it, just apply it directly.
The turning off and on of the lights was controlled by the round Magic Artifacts in his hand just now. It was inlaid with a second-level Monster Core as a power source, and the inscriptions engraved on it could match the inscriptions on the street lamps. The letters echo each other, and the magic power in the Monster Core inlaid on it can be transferred to the Magic Lamp. After contacting the magic power, the Magic Lamp will emit light and illuminate the darkness.
Magic Lamp does not consume a lot of magic power, but according to the density of one lamp per ten meters like Claire, the cost of the entire Nafu City is much higher, and this An expenditure still has no return, which is what Isaac doesn't understand, but he can't see through Claire's many things, and he doesn't worry too much about Claire's persistence.
After several more demonstrations, and under the inspection of Claire and Isaac, Minotaur installed the street lights according to the steps without any problems, and then they nodded with satisfaction.
Isaac rushed back to his Academy of Sciences without stopping, and continued to study the airship with his mages.
Claire was not idle either. When he arrived, Steward's Office called Regan, who was dizzy, and asked about some matters.
"How's the recruitment going?"
Regan rubbed his eyes and straightened his dirty face. He had not had a good rest for several days.
"Returning to the young master, the news has spread to the cities of several nearby lords. According to the records in the report, except for some people who have not come, most of the talents who meet our conditions have come to our Nafu City." When he said this, Regan's eyes were shining.
He seems to have been able to foresee the future of the rise of Nafu City.
For a city to develop, many factors are crucial, but talent is essential! But Claire has recruited talents from several nearby territories at high prices. As time goes by, Nafu City will become more and more prosperous, and those territories will become lonely, and the people and labor there will also flow into Nafu City.
Looking at Regan who looked haggard, Claire patted the other party's shoulder distressedly. "Don't work so hard, just take a rest."
After all, he is already here. If something goes wrong due to hard work, he will be sorry Regan.
Regan said with an excited tone, "Okay, young master! I will definitely work harder!"
Claire tilted his head:???? Are you sure you heard what I just said?
"Forget it, just put down the work here and let the people under you do it. You can do something for me first."
"Master, please tell me!"
"Organize the people and organize those who are willing to go to the mine to mine ore. The buildings in Nafu City are almost completed, right? Organize the construction personnel as well."
"Master, what do you want to do?"
Claire looked in the direction of the mine and said softly, "Just mine and build a town by the way. It will become one of Nafu City's important sources of income."
