"Is that so? I thought Asuna would really like this. Alright, Asuna, from now on, you'd better serve your master well."
Asuna blushed with her delicate face. Hearing what Niu Zida said, she slowly opened her white stockings, revealing her beautiful vulva. Niu Zida, naturally, did not hold back and thrust hard into her from the front. Meanwhile, Misaki Shokuhou, naturally, took care of her own, pressing her large snowflakes against Niu Zida's back and helping him push his buttocks away.
"You slut..."
Accompanied by Asuna's humiliated and high-pitched moans, Niu Zida began to thrust roughly as soon as he entered her, each time penetrating to the hilt and stirring violently, making Asuna beg for mercy. But the more Asuna begged, the rougher Niu Zida's movements became, as if he wanted to ensure Asuna's obedience through this method.
Under such a fierce onslaught, Asuna could only let out sobbing moans. Finally, when she felt a surge of heat flowing into her uterus, Asuna felt as if she had been released. Her snow-white body tensed up, and her white silk stockings involuntarily clamped around Niu Zida's short body, and she reached the final paradise with him.
That night, Niu Zida repeatedly made love with two beautiful young maids in white stockings, once with Asuna and once with Misaki Shokuhou. Both maids were brought to their peak in turn. It wasn't until almost dawn that Niu Zida lay on the white stockings of the two beautiful maids, whose lower bodies were already like puffed puffs, and fell into a deep sleep.
For the next two or three days, Niu Zida spent most of his time in a carriage with Misaki Shokuhou and Asuna. He didn't have Kuroyukihime, Shizuku Misato, or Yoru serve him in bed. The other two were fine, but Shizuku Misato was extremely jealous and didn't give Niu Zida a good look. Niu Zida didn't care. He figured he could just find an opportunity to deal with this arrogant little brat when he got back, and that would be enough to settle things.
When they returned to the Dore territory, Asuna and Misaki Shokuhou were both heavily pregnant. Naturally, Ushio Tatsumi had to arrange for the two of them to deliver the goblins. Misaki Shokuhou was fine, as she had given birth once before. Asuna, however, was having her first childbirth and was a little scared. Kuroyukihime repeatedly comforted her, telling her not to worry and that giving birth to a goblin wouldn't hurt much.
Asuna and Misaki Shokuhou's childbirth is actually a minor matter. After returning this time, Niu Zida's main focus was on listening to Amelie and Aponia about the recent progress of the new city's construction. Because he had been busy with the sandworms, Niu Zida hadn't paid attention to the situation of the new city for a long time.
"The main construction of the new city is basically completed. The warehouses and reservoirs are still under excavation and will be completed around the time of the Saintess Festival. The barracks are basically completed. Once the warehouses and reservoirs are completed, the goblins can move in. The master's main building is also basically completed and is currently being decorated."
It was now January of the year 1047 in the Continental Calendar, and the most important festival in the entire Kingdom of Altaïr, and also the most important festival for all countries on the continent, was the Saintess Festival. This festival was established to commemorate the birthday of the Sword Saintess, the representative of the Church. Each generation of Sword Saintess was a messenger sent by God to spread the gospel among humankind, so her birthday was fixed on January 15th. This day was the most important day for all countries on the continent using the Continental Calendar.
Chapter 218
It is one of the festivals.
"Hmm, good progress. However, the interior decoration of my main building doesn't need to be too luxurious, and the territory's finances are not abundant. How many goblins can the military camp in the new city hold?"
"It can accommodate over a thousand people without any problem."
Now, the goblins in the entire Dore Territory have reproduced, and after accounting for some battle losses, their numbers have reached about 1200. Most of them can enter the new city. The barbican in the Dore Territory still needs some garrisoning, and the demi-human village also needs a certain number of garrisoning. Therefore, the new city can temporarily accommodate the current number of goblins.
However, Niu Zida was not entirely satisfied with this. After all, the food supply in his territory had been basically sufficient after more than a year of development, and he still needed to breed more goblins. If it was just enough, then in another 1-2 years, the new city would probably still not be able to accommodate the newly bred goblins.
"More goblin camps need to be built in the new city, at least to a scale of 3000 people."
"But master, the new city is only about 200 square meters in size. Isn't that too crowded?"
"To be precise, the new town is a piece of land measuring 270 meters by 285 meters."
Amelie produced the accurate measurement data, which showed that the area was roughly the size of less than 10 football fields, about seven or eight hectares.
Such a large area of land could easily accommodate 3000 small goblins if it were just for that purpose. However, with the need to build reservoirs, warehouses, barracks, and other structures, as well as basic sanitation and accommodation such as food, drink, and sanitation, 3000 goblins would be a bit crowded. So, after discussing it with Niu Zida, Amelie and Aponia decided to reduce the number of people to 2000.
Meanwhile, at Niu Zida's insistence, the new city will also serve as the main grain collection and storage area for the Dorei territory. Moreover, part of the warehouse will be built on the western hillside, which will allow for the construction of rammed earth walls for defense, achieving twice the result with half the effort. It will also allow the new city to expand outwards and make better use of more land.
Chapter 180 New City Construction
Chapter 180.
"Master, will Kirito be back for Saintess Day?"
"Don't worry, it should be fine."
After another exhilarating battle, Asuna lay naked in bed, embracing Ushio Tatsuya, both panting heavily. Kirito had been gone for a week and hadn't returned, so Asuna asked him with some concern. Ushio Tatsuya gently squeezed Asuna's large breasts, playing with them as he comforted her:
"Besides, didn't you say before that Kirito's round trip to Yunlai Port takes about 10-15 days? We parted ways at the end of December. Normally, as long as nothing unexpected happens, Kirito should be back about 2-3 days before Saintess Day."
"But I'm just worried about Kirito..."
"What are you worried about? He's strong enough to take down even a sandworm."
Niu Zida's statement was utter nonsense. Killing the sandworm was the result of Misaki Shokuhou's manipulation. However, Niu Zida had observed Kirito's skills. Although he was still not as good as his maid, he was more than capable of dealing with thieves in this world. As long as Kirito didn't cause trouble on the road, he shouldn't encounter any danger.
"makes sense……"
Hearing what Niu Zida said, Asuna showed a slightly relieved expression and agreed. Seeing her beautiful maid feel at ease, Niu Zida rolled over and pressed himself against Asuna's snow-white body, kissed her large breasts, and was about to thrust into her. Asuna slightly closed her white silk and resisted a little, saying:
"Master, didn't we already do that? Let's get some rest."
"Today is your first time serving me since you recovered from childbirth. It's good to do it a few more times. Besides, tonight I only want Asuna to serve me. This is my exclusive favor to you."
Hearing Niu Zida say this, Asuna still looked a little unwilling. After all, she had only submitted to Niu Zida to help Kirito gain power, which was essentially for her boyfriend, not because she liked doing this kind of thing with Niu Zida, although Asuna did find it quite comfortable.
"Asuna, be good and open your legs."
Seeing Asuna's slight reluctance, Niu Zida's voice was filled with oppressive force as he began to coerce the beautiful girl. Left with no other choice, Asuna parted her white silk stockings and then used her slender fingers to hold the enormous member between her fingers, aiming it at her vulva. Seeing the girl's submission, Niu Zida was finally satisfied and thrust in hard. With a humiliated moan from Asuna, he climbed onto her body and began to move vigorously.
"How was it... Asuna... Did Master enjoy it?"
"Um……"
"Isn't he much better than Kirito-kun?"
"..."
"Hurry up and tell me..."
"Kirito and I have never done such a thing... how can we compare them?"
"So that means you're definitely stronger than Kirito-kun, right?"
Hearing Niu Zida say that, Asuna knew that he was deliberately humiliating Kirito in front of her, so she simply narrowed her beautiful eyes and refused to say anything, trying her best not to make any moaning sounds. Of course, when it felt too good, Asuna couldn't help but moan along, after all, her body's instincts were unable to resist.
Seeing that Asuna remained silent and passively resisting, Niu Zida knew that Asuna still didn't accept him deep down. This was understandable, considering that Asuna had only signed the contract with him to help Kirito, and they had only known each other for a while.
Chapter 219
It's naive to think that you can make your partner submit to you just because you want to have sex.
Conquering one's heart is something that can't be rushed; let the quantitative change lead to the qualitative change. Thinking this, Niu Zida thrust forward, forcefully pouring his semen into Asuna's womb, sending the beautiful girl beneath him to another peak. Asuna, with her beautiful eyes narrowed in humiliation, instinctively wrapped her arms around Niu Zida, her white silk stockings like green vines tightly entwining Niu Zida's short body, so tightly that Niu Zida himself almost suffocated during his orgasm...
In the following days, Niu Zida ordered that ice blocks be collected from the territory during the winter and stored in the underground kilns dug in the new city. At the same time, a certain amount of saltpeter was also prepared so that ice could be made from the saltpeter in the summer. The ice chambers built in the kilns could also be used to store some fruits, wine, and grains. Of course, more importantly, Niu Zida began to collect the umbilical cord blood left by his maid after she gave birth to a goblin.
The more goblins remain, the higher their level, and the more likely the umbilical cord will eventually evolve away. This is something Niu Zida learned during the Sandworm Battle with Kuroyukihime. While this makes it easier for the maid to adapt to the environment and facilitates a natural birth, it also means the umbilical cord will gradually disappear. Umbilical cord blood contains a large number of human stem cells. If one were to suffer a serious injury in the future and need to repair their body, using the maid's umbilical cord blood would undoubtedly be the most convenient option. After all, the goblins are born from one's own bloodline, so as long as the blood types match, it's fine.
This idea stemmed from the lessons Niu Zida learned during the sandworm hunting mission. If he were to suffer a serious injury in the future, he would need to have some means of recovery. Moreover, he would store more umbilical cord blood so that it could be used to rescue any of his maids if they were injured in the future. Most importantly, as the number of maids who give birth increases, the umbilical cord will gradually disappear. Therefore, he would need to collect it while he still has newly acquired maids and continue to acquire maids to meet his future needs.
That night, both Yoel and Amelie gave birth at the same time. Unfortunately, these two maids had already given birth too many times and could no longer produce umbilical cords. It seems that the disappearance of the umbilical cord depends only on the time of collection, not on the maid's personal qualities. In other words, the maids that Kuroyukihime collected before should no longer be able to obtain umbilical cords. Of course, it may also be related to the number of births.
Currently, the main maids who can still produce umbilical cords are Kamiya Madoka, Misaki Shokuhou, and Asuna. It's not so clear about Kokoro, since she's not by my side, but it's all about the same, as long as I have a general idea of the time.
Another week passed, and the warehouses, kilns, and reservoirs in the new city were probably all dug. At the same time, Niu Zida also specifically requested the construction of drainage ditches and toilets. The location of the toilets, in particular, had to be carefully considered, otherwise it would easily lead to an epidemic within the city. After all, this new city was essentially a military fortress built on a large earthen platform near a hillside, used to remotely control the main city of the Dorei lord. The population density was very high, and if this aspect was not taken seriously, it could easily lead to an internal infectious disease outbreak.
To this end, Niu Zida specifically ordered the construction of a sewer tunnel beneath the entire new city. This tunnel would connect to a septic tank on a protruding section outside the city, which could also be used as fertilizer. Of course, the septic tank had to be built in a low-lying area, some distance downwind from the new city, otherwise the odor would be too strong and easily disturb the city. In the end, Niu Zida chose to dig a tunnel ditch outside the earthen platform and set up a sluice gate to introduce the small river that flows through the new city. By utilizing the height difference, the water flow could be used to flush away the waste from the sewers simply by opening the sluice gate. In addition, if the water in the city's reservoirs exceeded the required level, the sluice gates in the tunnel ditch could also be opened to release water, thus eliminating the fear of enemy water attacks that could flood the city.
In addition to setting up reservoirs, Niu Zida also paid special attention to bringing water into the new town from the stream behind the mountain, and also set up sluice gates to control the water flow rate. In this way, in addition to opening up water sources, the important thing is that fresh water can be introduced into the reservoirs at any time when there is a water shortage.
In addition to these, Niu Zida also specially built a passageway leading to Dore City. This passageway was only 2 meters wide and was protected by low rammed earth walls on all sides. This ensured that if Dore and the new city were besieged in wartime, they could still maintain contact. Moreover, this passageway, together with the western mountains, partially enclosed a large area of farmland. This would even protect some crops during the siege by a superior enemy. Furthermore, if the enemy were to harass them in the future, at least some farmers would not be disturbed.
In the past two weeks, with Niu Zida overseeing the work within the territory, the construction of the new city has become more detailed. Currently, apart from the temporary passageway that was added at the last minute, which still requires some work, the rest of the main structure of the new city is being refined.
Chapter 181 Ningguang's Conditions
Chapter 181.
Just as Niu Zida was busy building the new city, the day of Saintess Festival arrived. As expected, Kirito returned the day before Saintess Festival. However, Asuna was heavily pregnant and about to give birth that night, so it was inconvenient for her to come out and see Kirito. Niu Zida had no choice but to personally arrange for Kirito to stay at the inn and not enter the castle. It wasn't until the next day, after Asuna had given birth, that Kirito finally entered the castle.
After entering the castle, Asuna, despite her weakened state, came out to see Kirito. Kirito was startled to see Asuna's pale face and listless appearance, thinking she had contracted some serious illness. Asuna could only make excuses, saying:
"It's nothing, just a bit of a cold, but I'm almost better now."
"No, I clearly saw you..."
.
Chapter 220
.
I'm very sick, it's all my fault for not being by your side...
"Kirito, really, it's not that serious. Besides, you can't be by my side every day. I'm not a child."
Asuna gave a coquettish remark, and Kirito felt embarrassed in front of everyone, realizing that he might have been a bit too protective of his girlfriend.
"Ahem, let's get down to business."
Niu Zida, being held by Yor, was a little annoyed by the couple's display of affection, so he interrupted them and asked Kirito about the outcome of his discussion with Ningguang at the Jade Pavilion. (The last sentence appears to be a fragment and doesn't translate directly.)
Although he was concerned about his girlfriend's health, seeing that Asuna was only a little weak and otherwise fine, Kirito didn't want to keep asking her all sorts of questions. So he changed the subject and talked to Ushio Tatsumi about the outcome of their meeting with Ningguang.
"Lord Ningguang was very pleased to see the sand pupa samples, but after investigation, it was found that these sand pupae belong to the pupae of the quicksand eel, not sandworms."
"Hey?"
Niu Zida was also puzzled when he heard this, but after thinking about it, it made sense. After all, the sandworm attack he was attacked by was not because of contact with the sandworm pupa, but because Misaki Shokuhou deliberately manipulated the sandworm to attack him in order to lead him to see her. Later, when he and Kirito went to hunt sandworms, they were essentially using Misaki Shokuhou to put anxiety suggestions on Kirito and Asuna and manipulate the sandworm to put mental pressure on them. None of this was because of the sandworm pupa.
"Does that mean our cooperation with Lady Ningguang is not going to happen?"
"No, to be precise, it has expanded the scope of cooperation. Now, in addition to sand pupa, sandworm, and imaginary energy deposits, Lord Ningguang's investment in this area also allows her to obtain quicksand eels. These eels have delicious meat and are very popular."
Hearing Kirito's words, Niu Zida felt relieved. What his remote territory lacked right now was workers, technology, and capital. If he relied on farming to accumulate resources slowly, he didn't know when it would take. Although his maid was powerful, he wasn't strong enough to crush others with force. Attracting external funds to promote the development of his territory and slowly accumulating strength was the safest strategy. Besides, there was also Huanlong, the final boss. Now Niu Zida felt more and more that Huanlong would definitely betray him for his own benefit in the future. In order to prepare for the final battle, he also had to gather as much information as possible about Huanlong and this world.
"In that case, does that mean Lady Ningguang agrees to cooperate with us?"
"Yes, she will send people to our territory after the Feast of the Holy Maiden to discuss the specific construction project selection. After we decide what projects to invest in, we will then invest in the site selection and construction of the factory."
"Oh, back then, as the territory manager, I would be responsible for providing protection for the factory, and there would also be tax breaks."
"Hmm? Lady Ningguang thinks this land might be considered a joint development?"
Hearing Niu Zida say this, Kirito looked troubled. As expected, he brought up the issue that both sides had avoided before: whether the western region was considered part of Dorei territory. If it was recognized, then taxation and judicial jurisdiction would be in Niu Zida's hands. If it was not recognized but rather jointly developed, then Ningguang was obviously also interested in this land.
"The entire western demi-human region is under the jurisdiction of the Dore Territory. This power was granted to Baron Dore by the Kingdom of Altaïr. The current lord of Dore is Baroness Dona, and because she is young, her mother Amelie is acting as regent. This is a fact."
"But as far as I know, the House of Altaïr has not officially acknowledged this, at least not in any official document."
"Donna is the daughter of the former Baron Spring, which is clearly recorded in the House of Lords, and she is also the sole legal heir."
For some reason, the topic suddenly shifted to discussing Donna's succession rights, but Niu Zida had a vague feeling that something was wrong. Ningguang was not someone to be trifled with, and it was clear that her real purpose in bringing up this topic was not to question Donna's status as lord. After all, she was in Yunlai Port, which was at least nearly a thousand kilometers away from here, and the ownership of the territory here did not pose a real threat to her interests. It was likely that Ningguang was bringing this up more to lay the groundwork for subsequent bargaining.
"However, the House of Nobles has not formally issued a document establishing Donna's status as heir. Although the succession is indeed automatic, an approval process is still required."
When Niu Zida seized control of the Dore Territory, although he suppressed the rebellions of various knights within the territory, he did not report to the House of Nobles to avoid complications. He was afraid that if any knight in the territory reported him to the Altaïr House of Nobles, he would not be able to keep it a secret. If he did not report it now, Altaïr, who was busy with the war, would not have time to manage a border territory. Everyone was just fooling each other. Once the matter was brought to light, it would be more difficult to handle. But now it has become a handle that Ningguang has seized upon.
That said, Ningguang is really amazing. She knows so much about the Altaïr Noble House. She probably has people in Altaïr too. This also means that someone in Altaïr's central government has been paying attention to this situation for a long time, but no one is willing to pay attention.
My last trip to Altaïr's capital was to resolve this hidden danger. Unfortunately, although I met Ayaka Kamisato, she refused to cooperate when we discussed it. Perhaps the clever Ayaka already knew the Noble Council's attitude towards the Dore territory, so she refused to cooperate with me because she didn't want to cause trouble.
This time, Niu Zida was really in a bind.
Chapter 221
It seems that I have no choice but to compromise with Ningguang for now. After all, I have no connections with the Altaïr House of Nobles, and it is not easy to resolve the legal issues of the Dorrey territory immediately. If I force the issue, it will spread the news that the Dorrey territory is controlled by a goblin like myself, which would contradict my strategy of "concealing my strength and developing steadily". That hateful Ningguang is indeed a cunning businessman who will seize any favorable conditions as bargaining chips.
"Everyone's goal is to make money, so everything else can be discussed."
Thinking of this, Niu Zida's tone softened considerably. There was no other way; he had to bow his head when necessary. A small act of impatience could ruin a great plan. He wasn't the male protagonist in a domineering CEO/dragon-slaying novel, whose solution to every problem was to stand back and do something terrifyingly straightforward.
"Actually, Lady Ningguang meant the same thing."
"Yes, of course. And once the factory is completed, we can also take care of protecting it. Lady Ningguang probably doesn't want the businesses here to be burdened with too much of her energy."
Niu Zida subtly suggested that even if there were legal disputes over the land in this area, the local official had more power than the county magistrate, and when it came to real protection, they still had to rely on themselves. Therefore, Ningguang shouldn't go too far. Sure enough, in the information Kirito brought back, Ningguang had also considered this point:
"What Lady Ningguang means is that the legal basis for this land can be recognized as the territory of the Dorei, taxes can be completely reduced, and Mr. Niu Zida can receive some preferential treatment in terms of profits, with a 30/70 split."
"Hmm, Ningguang is quite good."
"Seventy percent of them belong to other people."
Kirito's words made Niu Zida's hands tremble with anger. Damn it, Ningguang not only wanted to get tax-free, but he was getting the lion's share? Did he think I was begging on my knees? This was intolerable! Even if I could tolerate it, I couldn't!
Just as Niu Zida was about to lash out, Amelie, standing to the side, directly stated:
"Then let's agree to Lady Ningguang's conditions."
Chapter 182 Punishing Amelie for Acting on Her Own Decisions
Chapter 182.
What the hell? Niu Zida felt his head spin again when he heard Amelie's statement. Why was Amelie suddenly putting on this "We are ready to fight to the death, why did Your Majesty surrender first?" act?
"Oh? Mrs. Amelie, what do you mean?"
"Yes, I mean, we've agreed to Lady Ningguang's conditions."
