<h4>Chapter 651: The dwarfs who came</h4>


    It was probably due to both the garrison and the Elf Kingdom.


    The construction of the wooden houses wasing to an end, and Kant was very satisfied with the results.


    The first batch of people to move to Cumbend from Drondheim was set at about 1,300. Kant and the others picked the ones with experience in agriculture and farming as the focus and they selected suitable people from all kinds of jobs to live in Cumbend.


    Of course, age was also a very important selection point. The age standard for people living in Cumbend was set at the juvenile to the middle-aged stage. However, for those who applied for the entire family to move, a special level of care would be given, depending on the specific circumstances.


    After all, the main purpose of the request to cedend was to develop this ce into an independent product export location. The first batch of residents, Drondheim, also represented the localbor force needed at the moment.


    Kant’s goal was to get Cumbend on the right track quickly and to maintain the output.


    After the list of residents was released, everyone on the list received letters from Cumbend. Kant wrote at the end of the letter that he would give everyone who received the invitation a week to prepare. After a week, Drondheim’s army would escort them to Cumbend.


    During this week, Kant and the craftsmen would go to the seaside from time to time to explore, hoping to find a suitable ce to build a harbor.


    ording to the map, the journey from Cumbend to Drondheim was smooth sailing. Compared to the three or four days of road traffic, the ships at sea were the best way to transport goods.


    After a few days of investigation, Kant finally found a suitable ce to build a harbor. However, the construction of the harbor still required the guidance of a professional designer and the help of an experienced technical team.


    Kant went to neighboring countries every day for this, but he heard that no construction team in the Elf Kingdom targeted the harbor.


    After asking the Foreign Affairs Minister for help, he received a reply, the only seaport in the Elf Kingdom was built by the craftsmen of the Dwarf Kingdom.


    Kant had never dealt with the people of the Dwarf Kingdom before, and when he was considering whether to go back to the Elf Kingdom to ask for help.


    After going to the Elf Kingdom’s Port of Corias, he made up his mind to invite the craftsmen of the Dwarf Kingdom.


    The craftsmanship of the Dwarf Kingdom was very natural. Every inch of the Port of Corias was as beautiful and natural as if it was intact.


    The Foreign Affairs Minister gave Kant the way to contact the Dwarf Kingdom, he said to Kant, “The craftsmen of the Dwarf Kingdom have some stubborn and strange temperaments. After all, they are arrogant. If you really want to invite them, you have to cooperate with their ideas.”


    Kant did not care about this. He had seen many people with such temperaments. They just needed you to carefullymunicate with them. Of course, in a specialized field, there was very little room for discussion.


    A week had passed, and Kant had sent an invitation letter to the Dwarf Kingdom. But there was still no reply.


    The people who had migrated from Drondheim were about to arrive. Kant asked the back-office staff to move the basic supplies into the small wooden houses. He also picked a medicine called tufted grass in the mountains and made it into incense. He put a few in each wooden house to keep out insects and moisture.


    When all the people arrived, the wooden houses were ready to be upied.


    When more than 100 families came to Cumbend by carriage, Kant did not go out to greet them. Because he was not used to being stared at by too many people. After leaving all the procedures of the reception to his subordinates. Kant went to the main city of Elf City alone. The Foreign Affairs Minister asked Kant to have a drink today.


    Kant also took the opportunity to get away from theplicated affairs for a while.


    When he arrived at the restaurant in the downtown area of the city, the Foreign Affairs Minister had been sitting there waiting for him for a long time.


    Kant could still feel that the Foreign Affairs Minister admired him, but he did not know where this admiration came from.


    The Foreign Affairs Minister asked unintentionally during the banquet, and said with a mncholic expression, “Actually, I’m quite envious of you. You’re talented, and you’re valued by yourmanders.”


    “The Foreign Affairs Minister must also be highly valued by the Elf King. Back then, we discussed the market project. The Elf King also said that he would give his full support behind the scenes. Wasn’t that suggestion originally put forward by you?” Kant replied.


    “No, our Elf King has never shown his strength to the people. He’s always hiding behind the curtain, unable to make any decisions. He’s just happy that someone took the initiative to help him solve some of his problems.” the Foreign Affairs Minister was already drunk, he answered vaguely.


    As soon as he finished speaking, he fell to the side.


    Kant walked out of the restaurant and asked the attendants of the Foreign Affairs Minister to escort him back to his residence.


    Then he took a carriage back to Cumbend’s residence. The small wooden houses that used to be dark and silent were lit up tonight.


    Kant could hear the voices of the people in the houses when he passed by.


    For some reason, his heart also felt much warmer.


    Some people said that there were two kinds of people in the world who were the loneliest. One was the kind who would feel unhappy when he saw others happy. The other was the kind who would feel warmer when he saw the shadow of happiness in others even when he was outside.


    Kant felt that he belonged to thetter kind at this moment.


    He dragged his tired body to bed and closed his eyes to sleep. Tomorrow was another new day.


    After a week, the new people had already familiarized themselves with their work content, although there was no real output. But if this momentum continued, Cumbend should soon be a well-organized agricultural production area.


    The people of the Dwarf Kingdom sent a reply, promising to take on this project, but the treatment they requested was also very shocking.


    Kant, after asking Bunduk, gave a positive answer to the Dwarf Kingdom.


    On the fourth day after the reply was sent, the craftsmen of the Dwarf Kingdom arrived at the Port of Corias on a ship they had built.


    Kant went to receive them personally ording to the contract.


    For the first time, he got to know the craftsmen from the Dwarf Kingdom.


    There were about twenty people who came. They were not very tall, only about 1.3 meters.


    All of them had fiery red hair on their heads, and they looked a little restless.


    They had been whispering since they got off the ship. They spoke very fast, and it sounded like thenguage of their own race.


    “Can you speak the humannguage?” Kant asked.


    Communication was a big problem.


    “Yes…” the girl at the front of the line replied.


    Kant’s eyes lit up. He had noticed this quiet little girl from the beginning. She seemed to be the leader of this group of dwarves.
