Chapter 301 - Neldas Arrival With A Big Surprise

    In the courtyard of the old great hall, Einar was ying ser with his children.


    "Remember to throw the ball into the goal Laura, don''t worry dad will take care of stopping your penalty."


    Lauraughed and looked seriously at her father "Dad, with this penalty I''m sure I''ll win, so get ready."


    After those words, Laura ran towards the ball and with all her strength, she kicked it under her father''s legs.


    Einar, who could stop her, moved slowly so that the ball could enter the goal.


    Laura, seeing that he had scored a goal, shouted with joy, "Yes, we won the game. Dad is going to tell us the story about a princess who can control the ice."


    Daven, who was also happy, ran to hug Laura because he also wanted to hear the story about that princess who had powers.


    Einar, seeing his children happy, just smiled and put his hands on his waist "Children, this was only the beginning. Remember that although you have won the game, we must continue exercising to always stay in shape.


    If you can score another goal for me, I''ll tell you the story of a mouse who wanted to be a chef... "


    Einar interrupted his words when the merchant bell could be heard.


    "Alright kids, you y for the meantime, Daddy has to work."


    Without wasting time, Einar approached his wives and gave each of them a kiss. "I will be back in the evening. I don''t know how many ves we have to attend to, but fortunately, the soldiers have alreadypleted training for almost three months.


    I had to advance their graduation, but with them a powerful group of 5000 new soldiers from among the new ves began to be trained.


    Fortunately, we will have months of time to digest these new recruits to prepare for too many ves.


    I wish we had more Nordic poption, but I suppose we have to work with what we have.


    Either way, I will keep you actualized overnight. I love you all and you too, my little children. "


    Erick and Katherine raised their hands in joy when they felt their father caress their cheeks.


    Einar after this left the old hall, and could see warriors and soldiers running towards the port, so he too began to run towards the port.


    When he arrived, he opened his eyes and stroked his mustache with a smile as he climbed to the harbor tower to see a fleet of ships.


    Which covered the entire horizon. Although he recognized the gs on the ships.


    <em>''I think Nelda exaggerated a bit with the number of ves, but for the number of ships, it should be over 30,000 ves.</em>


    <em> </em>


    <em>But that''s good, because I can fully implement the construction of the northeast part of the ind, I think, by increasing the size of the Ansgar road.</em>


    <em> </em>


    <em>I will be able to create more towns and viges. I will have to divide the ves if they have knowledge of agriculture and livestock.</em>


    <em> </em>


    <em>All viges must bepletely bnced to avoid any famine.</em>


    <em> </em>


    <em>I will also need to deploy more makeshift trawlers to get more fish.</em>


    <em> </em>


    <em>So many things to do and so little time. ''</em>


    Einar came down from the watchtower and began to organize all the warriors and soldiers, this so that they could help in the reception of all the ves.


    When Nelda''s ship docked at the dock, a wooden tform was ced and Nelda who already had a pregnant stomach visible under the ship.


    As he went down, he bit an apple and looked at Einar with joy "A pleasure to see that you are feeling well Nelda, I am going to rmend you some salicorns to improve your pregnancy diet.


    I know you might not like them, but with them, your baby will grow big and strong, and it would also solve part of your cravings. "


    Nelda, who was somewhat desperate for the symptoms of her pregnancy, just sighed "I think I will ept your offer. I really would like to have a solution to the cravings that I have hadtely.


    I even took the opportunity to ask southern merchants for a few lemons and oranges.


    Those fruits are expensive but I got a few. "


    Einar was surprised and smiled with joy "Nelda, tell me what you have avable orange and lemon seeds."


    Nelda nodded and pointed towards the boat "When I bought the fruits they gave me a big bag with seeds of those two fruits but the climate is too cold for it to grow.


    Are you sure you want them? "


    Einar smiled and spread his hands "I will pay you a gold coin for the seeds. I think that shows that I am interested in them."


    Nelda showed a rather surprised face and sighed "I guess I will never understand the Norse people. By the way, I found out that you became king and Konungar.


    The bards do not stop singing songs about your exploits. It is the only thing that is talked about on the ind in these times and about the strange truce in the civil war of the Frank empire. "


    Einar changed his face from joy to a more serious one "Do you know anything more about the Frank empire?"


    Nelda scratched her cheek and smirked "From what I heard Pope Gregory IV made some kind of agreement to stop the civil war.


    Although it is information that only the nobles have, it is said that it is because the emperor is going tounch a war campaign in the north.


    Well, it is said that a group of Vikings burned the capital Parisii and in the process the entire poption died fighting rather than be defeated by the Vikings. "


    Einar put his hand on his chin and took a deep breath to keep calm.<em> ''Such a radical change in history is a sign that perhaps my knowledge of the future is useless.</em>


    <em> </em>


    <em>But it could take advantage of the attack to the north to create the legend about this ce and bring Nordic migrants. ''</em>


    Looking at Nelda with a smile, Einar showed a sign with his fingers "Nelda, I have a very profitable business for you.


    I am willing to pay you 100 gold coins in products if you can get Nordic skalds, which can transmit the legend of a country for Nordics throughout the Nordic world.


    A ce where there is no hunger and the herald of Odin himself runs the country. I want you to talk about the Nordic kingdom.


    Don''t worry, I''ll take care of giving you an epic song in Norse so that the skalds can sing it in theirnds.


    I want the legend to be told that if theye in peace to the sacrednd, they will be well received, but if theye to war, they will meet death.


    Because Odin gave the herald the right to fire his fury, an explosion that can wipe out his ships like pieces of wood. "


    Nelda, who did not understand very well everything Einar had said, knew who could help her, so she epted Einar''s proposal without hesitation.


    "Well, since we talked about that business, I would like to know how many ves will I be getting this time?"


    Nelda smiled and turned her body to point out all the ships "I am happy to say that we are thergest fleet in the ind''s south, because of the civil war of the Frank empire.


    I could buy boats and with the help of my father, I increased the fleet a little, as you can see.


    But in answering your question, I am happy to say that there are 53,658 ves on these ships.


    All of them are refugees, serfs or simple men who sold themselves as ves.


    There are also 500 goats, 600 sheep, 300 cows and 200 pigs.


    Although the only thing I am sure of is that I cannot bring so many ves without the civil war in the Frank empire.


    There is no reliable ve supply, so perhaps next time I will bring a much smaller number of ves.


    I also got as much food as I could, but it could only have been oats and barley, as wheat increased in price.


    But I bring 30 tons of oats and 10 of barley.


    I have to be grateful that without these ves, the price of food fell too low. "


    Einar, who was somewhat concerned about therge number of ves, simply showed a face full of confidence.


    "That doesn''t matter. Now that you''ve brought too many ves, I can start to implement aplete construction n.


    It could even advance the most important buildings in the nation so that in months it would bepleted.


    That makes me want to ask you, do you know if there are families among the ves? "


    Nelda nodded and from her bag and took out a scroll "Among the ves there are 32,000 people who have families.


    Of these, 6,000 are boys and girls of different ages.


    The rest are single women and men of varying ages, from 16 to 50 years old.


    Also, to avoid problems, I hired scribes so that they would write down their origin and say where they belonged.


    As a reward, they received a te of fish when they had no food to eat, so I can be sure they were telling the truth.


    At least most of them, but you should be careful and keep them away. You never know if they will try anything. "


    Einar showed a serious face because he took into ount Nelda''s words "You can be sure that I will take it into ount, all that information I need you to deliver.


    So you can start organizing the tents and the entire ve registry.


    By the way, I have a new product that I am sure you will love. "


    With a wave of his hand, a group of warriors took some purple cloth packages and carried them in front of Nelda.


    Nelda gulped and looked longingly at the purple fabric Einar had.. She knew that a fabric with such a mythical color would have a high value.
