"Kiki, Bryen is also a very good candidate."
Suddenly Anno ntioned Bryen. Hearing that, Hikaru shook his head and said, "No, we don't know what her abilities and thoughts are. If she's not the right fit, it'll probably be difficult for the job."
"Even if her mindset is the sa as Narita's, it will take ti for us to change her mind, but that's not necessarily successful."
Anno shook his head: "No, trust , Kiki, I'm sure Bryen will do a good job."
"Besides, she has also been managing the Shareny Kingdom in place of Ratylous and Raven for almost 50 years, her experience will surely be no less."
After Hearing Anno's words, Hikaru felt a little reassured. Anyway, the people she introduced or recomnded to him were all very trustworthy.
Besides, Anno would not harm him, on the contrary, she was his woman, so she would always think of helping him get as many benefits as possible.
Anno continued: "Bryen has also given us the locations of 12 resource mines, all of which are important resources for a kingdom."
"Although we haven't exploited those mines yet, I estimate the amount of resources in those 12 mines is enough for our kingdom to use for 1,000-2,000 years."
Hikaru frowned and asked, "Does Bryen own that many resources? Won't her actions make the king of Zumberos suspicious?"
Anno shook his head: "Did you know that when Bryen married Raven, the king of Zumberos - Zidaron gave the kingdom of Shareny 45 resource mines."
"45 resource mines? Can the Zumberos Kingdom produce resource mines?" Hikaru asked, confused. It must be known that the 12 resource mines that Bryen provided, according to Anno's estimates, were enough for him to use for the next 1,000 - 2,000 years.
So how much will 45 resource mines be?
Besides… Why does the Zumberos kingdom possess so many resources that are not occupied by other kingdoms?
Anno smiled and said, "Kiki, maybe you don't know. Zumberos is a kingdom with an extrely large area. In this world, the only kingdom that has the right to sit on the sa level as the Saric Sanctuary, is the kingdom of Zumberos."
"Besides, Zumberos kingdom has many vassal kingdoms. The special thing is that Zumberos has full rights to exploit the resources in the vassal kingdoms."
Hikaru frowned and said, "Don't the other Vassal Kingdoms object to this?"
Anno explains: "This also has to do with the wisdom of Zidaron. He is the one behind the coups in the vassal kingdoms."
"He is the one who caused the coups and also supported the new king of the vassal kingdom to ascend to the throne."
"Those new kings can live off the protection of Zidaron's army, and Zidaron has full rights to exploit the resources of those vassal kingdoms."
"As ti went on, the mbers of the Zumberos' army and royal family gradually beca the rulers of the vassal kingdoms."
"The king of those kingdoms beca a figurehead, they are of no use as every decision rests with the royal family of Zumberos."
Hikaru nodded at that, it seed that Zidaron was a very cunning person. This was a common thod on Earth used by large countries.
Economic traps, political traps..etc.
Hikaru felt that he himself needed to be careful, or else his territory would one day belong to his enemies.
Anno continued, "Even though Bryen is not good looking, her ability is extrely good. She is also the one who ca up with the plans to exploit and use resources for the Zumberos kingdom."
"Until now, Bryen's plan to mine and use resources is still being used by Zidaron."
Hikaru nodded and said, "Um… I am reassured. For the ti being, you don't need to care about mining those resources. We should focus on stabilizing and fully replenishing our territory first."
"Once we have enough manpower to manage the territory, we can progress to mining minerals and finding more resources from outside the territory."
"Ah! Is Mika's weaving workshop finished?"
Anno nodded: "Um… her workshop is finished, inside there are about 10 looms for normal fabrics, 3 looms for interdiate fabrics, and 1 loom especially for Mika."
"The current workers are only female dwarves, they are in the process of apprenticeship but they still receive a salary. Apprentice salaries are not high enough for them to worry about buying food every day."
"Of course they will buy food from the supermarket with an ID card. Currently, ID cards have been provided to more than 600 residents in the territory. If everyone in the territory had ID cards, the number would increase to over 800."
"Food distribution has also completely stopped for everyone in the territory. They have started working to be able to live on their own without our help."
Hikaru nodded, it seed that the distance to reaching 1,000 inhabitants in the territory was not far.

Void Library
Description 7: For each type of special building in your territory that has 100 users, you will receive one bonus draw. (The next ti is 1,000 turns).
Description 8: If the number of inhabitants in your territory reaches 1,000, you will receive one free evolution. Note, the evolution tier is not higher than SUR, and cannot be used to evolve for yourself. (Next ti 10,000 people.)
…
In order to achieve an evolution to Tier SUR as shown in the 8th description, he needed to wait more.
But Hikaru knew he didn't need to wait too long. The current population in the territory was less than 1,000, but after the mixed-bloods arrive, the number would increase greatly.
However, he also needed to prepare resources for the mixed-bloods to live and work for.
According to the description of number 7, he probably had at least one draw. In addition, he has 7 unopened treasure chests that the territory has produced.
Hikaru started checking the number of people who used the special buildings
…

Description 1: When construction is complete, this is a place where the people in the territory can register to form a guild.

Description 1: Every citizen who wants to beco a legal resident of the territory needs to re-register the Administrative Hall ID.
Description 2: Residents who own ID cards, becoming an official resident of the territory will gain 10% of all stats permanently.
…
Hikaru saw that aside from the Administrative Hall and the Healing Hall, the other buildings were still unused. However, other projects are still in the process of being completed.
Although the construction has been completed, there is still no staff to put it into operation.
Healing Hall is different, he can hire a Healing Enchanter to make the Healing Hall work. Currently, he has spent 1 billion Soul Points to hire 10 Healing Enchanters.
However, it seems that the current Healing Hall still didn't have much effect. After all, the people in the territory didn't fight, most of them possessed the ability to use magic so they weren't injured nor infected.
Because of that, most of the people who use the Healing Hall were Dwarves and Lizard babies.
But he also got a draw thanks to the Administrative Hall. He imdiately used that draw, and a notice from the system appeared in front of him.
[Ding! Congratulations on getting the [Mineral dal].
…
Na: Mineral dal

Hikaru was overjoyed seeing this dal, he imdiately asked Rika: "Rika, can this dal affect the material collection of the users or the inhabitants of this territory?"
[To be sure, you need to evolve it to a higher Tier, but that dal will have much better effects.]
"So… evolve the [Mineral dal]."

"Accept!"

Seeing the description, Hikaru felt overjoyed. This dal would help his territory grow at a trendous speed.
He smiled and asked Anno: "How much manpower do you expect to exploit those 12 mineral deposits?"
"Heh?! Kiki, just now you said we don't have to worry about them for the ti being, why are you asking this now."
He smiled confidently: "Hahaha… because I just got an item that can help our territory grow faster."
Anno nodded, she was a smart girl, so she knew there were many things that shouldn't be asked.
Anno rubbed her chin thoughtfully for a mont, then said, "The number needed to mine the 12 mines is about 1,000 people for each mine."
