The next day everyone prepared to start the real work, get the beta quartz located at the bottom of theke.


    They prepared and entered theke to start mining quartz, from the area where the quartz vein was, vio could see through his divine energy that the water was hotter than no fish or otherke creature approached the cave.


    When they finally arrived, vio was surprised why steam came out of the cave where it had to enter as if it were an underwater chimney.


    Under the protection of their divine energy, they entered a cave which, when illuminated with the light of divine energy, revealed arge number of quartz crystals.


    The temperature of the water in that ce reached about 60 or 70 degrees so vio could notice, the cave was very simr to the cave of Naica that vio once saw in the news.


    But having the opportunity to see a cave formed by quartz crystals is a very gratifying sensation for vio, fortunately, its interior will be a wonder dor the future generations in the empire.


    It is a fact that this cave was destroyed by some volcanic eruption or was lost at some point in history because even after drying theke after the conquest by Spanish, vio did not know of any quartz cave in Mexico City.


    vio smiled and stretched out his hands while he looks at the beautiful cave of quartz"Very well, this great quartz formation will be perfect to get the blocks we need.


    But how are we going to start, we can make quartz tiles andpletely cover the base of the ind, then cover it with sand from the bottom of theke.


    The volcanic stone is very porous so it will not befortable to step on. "


    Quetzalcoatl looked at vio with doubt "That’s very ostentatious, I understand that we use quartz for the walls and the structure in general but the floor."


    vio looked at Quetzalcoatl and raised his thumb "We are going to do a wonder that willst until the end of the days if we are going to be in this ce until we finish the construction, why don’t we build big and beautiful.


    Besides, it is not ostentatious because we are not going to use gold to build we are using quartz, I am not so stupid not to know that gold can cause future problems.


    But quartz is amon material without mentioning that it will be reinforced with divine energy so trying to steal it will be useless. "


    Apollo sighed "In that my son is right, but what the hell if we are going to build it is necessary to do it in a big way, I will take care of making walls muchrger and more beautiful than the ones I once made for Troy."


    While the gods were doing their work on the line of defense, the soldiers were receiving the hundreds of thousands of people sent from the conquered areas.


    Representatives of the three provinces and Miyuki were talking about the distribution of the poption. The representative of Americae Centralis was speaking "Our province needs farmers since most of our poption is defending the border with the damn jungle."


    The representative Inse Canibalium looked at Miyuki "We can handle the empire’s food productionpletely empress."


    The representative of Canibtum Maxima looked at the two representatives of the oldest provinces with some hatred "I understand that they fight to get more people but don’t forget that we are the base of the imperial navy.


    We need a lot of poption to upy each of the inds in our province, not to mention that we can also help with fishing in our area. "


    Miyuki sighed and gave a small knock on the wooden table, leaving a mark on it "Gentlemen, the rapid census of the poption of the conquered territories resulted in only 2 million people including adults, children and the elderly.


    I understand your concern but half of that poption will go directly to the province of Canibtum Maxima, having control of the inds is important, there is no extension on that decision.


    But for you the two remaining provinces there are 250,000 people guaranteed, the capital will keep the remaining half million, I hope you understand that thousands or perhaps millions of migrants from the north will arrive in the future.


    These tribes will be under imperial indoctrination for a while and then they will be sent to their provinces as Roman citizens, for the moment the empire that they need is children, food does not represent a problem ording to Minister Taneri.


    Promote in your provinces the birth of babies, remember to give subsidies to parents with more children, also the newly graduated doctors will go to help in births and general care of the poption.


    Every person is important to remember that, have any doubt. "


    The representatives shook their heads, they were not happy but they were not sad either since they had won enough with the meeting although they wondered where the emperor was.


    In the imperial pce, the Praetorians did not speak about the emperor because thest person who did it was sent by order of Empress Hellena to take care of one of the many almost abandoned inds of the province of Canibtum Maxima.


    Yuma who was ying with Italivi and Yatzil while carrying little Mitsune could hear her mother talk to Aunt Mayahuel.


    "You know something about my husband Hellena’s trash."


    Hellena who was sunbathing having a cup of tea handed Mayahuel a report from the Nahual messengers "It seems they finished building an ind from magma provided by an unknown god."


    Mayahuel read the report and drank of his chocte milk "It seems that Xolotl is helping them, thankfully they managed to make that bum work.


    You know he had the mission of dying for the birth of the fifth sun and escaped, in the end, the mother Tonantzin had to use something else to start the fifth sun. "


    Hellena sighed "If you had not told me that I was a God of your pantheon I would have gone with Grandpa Anubis to fight with him for help my husband.


    I want to know if they will learn the lesson. "


    Artemis who was carrying Bastet approached his sister-inw and Mayahuel "We can always castrate them to prevent them from reproducing."


    Hellena shook her head "I like the idea but I want to continue having children, it would seem more prudent to cut off their feet and hands to keep them locked up."


    The three women keptughing while Yuma looked up at the sky feeling fear <i><dad what="" the="" hell="" did="" you="" do,="" i="" never="" see="" my="" mother="" with="" that="" face=""></dad></i>
