In the central square of the city of Asgard, the ves were working hard to improve the central square following the design of the Dróttning Helmi.
To begin with, the za would have specially made cobblestones, which were being ced on the ground, those cobblestones had very striking colors.
Which ranged from yellow to purple. All of them were specially designed by Einar, who epted his wife''s proposal to improve the central za.
Which only had a cementyer that was functional in the rain but was not beautiful at all.
Another thing that would also be ced would be some pine trees to improve the appearance of the ce and around the square, a series ofmercial premises would be built for the city market.
For this, the properties of the people who lived around the central square were expropriated.
What Einar was trying to recreate was theyout of colonial cities in Mexico, where power was concentrating in the center.
Einar also took advantage of the fact that there were many ves and second-ss citizens in the capital, so he updated the old great hall.
For this, it would be demolished and it would be rebuilt with an architecture simr to the Stavkirke like the old Norwegian wooden churches.
With the only difference that it would be a muchrger construction and partition, iron rod and cement would be used for the construction.
What Einar nned to do was build the House of Representatives and the Prime Minister''s Office. That way, the civil government would have a ce for them.
He expected the construction to bepleted in the middle of the following year, while the central za would be ready in a month for the Yule festival.
Einar, who was supervising the constructions, watched with pride as thousands of people carried wheelbarrows with cement and paving stones.
<em>''If we only had modern machinery, it could increase construction speed to get everything done as quickly as possible.</em>
<em> </em>
<em>But I believe that the schedule system will allow to work all day so that the construction does not stop working at any time.</em>
<em> </em>
<em>When my father-inw or the Faroese merchants arrive, depending on the ves, I will start creating more production sites for building materials.</em>
<em> </em>
<em>This ind will be a veritable fortress and capital of a powerful empire. The people of the maind will only be able to guess what it looks like when it is finished building it.</em>
<em> </em>
<em>For no one will be able to get out of it, to keep the fact that there is a new world a secret.</em>
<em> </em>
<em>I think if my descendants work hard, they could keep the new continent a secret for at least a few centuries.</em>
<em> </em>
<em>Which is enough time for them to work to conquer the entire coastline, with which the Europeans and Muslims will only be able to establishmercial contact.</em>
<em> </em>
<em>But under no circumstances will they be able to establish colonies on ournds. Of course, they will always be free to try to attack us, but with a developed continent, it will be suicide.</em>
<em> </em>
<em>I also have to establish the rules for the government of a gigantic continent, so I should found another capital on the ind of Manhattan.</em>
<em> </em>
<em>I think it is a central area for a capital to develop, although I can always go further south to Florida ... ''</em>
Einar interrupted his thoughts when the arrival bells of merchants could be heard.
So a smile formed on his face when he arrived at the port, as he could see many ships that had the g of his father-inw on them.
When Vilhelm''s Drakkar reached the dock, a group of armored warriors came down, carrying some chests.
But none of that attracted more attention than seeing Vilhelm wearing with him a typical armor of Arab soldiers.
Vilhelm, when he saw his son, smiled, and after approaching, gave him a big hug.
"I can see that you are getting stronger. I think Laisa is forcing you to exercise more, right?"
Einar sighed as he nodded his head "Because she''s pregnant, she wants me to keep exercising for her. You know she doesn''t want a weak husband.
But it doesn''t bother me because having three wives requires a lot of physical and mental strength. "
Vilhelmughed and patted Einar on the shoulder "It''s good that you know your limits. I have been able to see with my own eyes how elite warriors die in bed because they have many wives.
They cannot bear so much pressure having so many women. It is wise to know when to stop, but changing the subject that you think of this armor.
Was a gift from a nobleman from the emirate of Córdoba. It must be on one ship. It is said to be a schr who is writing about the world.
It seems that he found out about your achievements because you are quite famous in all the Inds; it is a pity that there is not at your coronation but seeing everything you are building I think that as herald of Odin.
You are fulfilling your sacred work. By the way, I bring about 27,000 ves from the recent conquests that I am carrying out in Irnd.
This winter I should finish conquering thest castle in the ind''s southeast. With that castle, I will haveplete control of the ind.
Your way of governing that you suggested works very well. The number of rebels was reduced and talking about them.
I have a ship with 328 monks, priests, scribes and nuns that I have managed to capture. Following your rmendation, no one dared to do anything to them.
So they should be able to help you keep so many Christian ves at bay that you must receive and talking about it. Some Nordic families who arrived from Denmark want to settle on the ind.
There are approximately 500 people, most of them women, old people and children, who came to find a good ce to live.
Although I offered to stay in Irnd, they said they preferred to be away from the battle. Although I do not understand their thinking, I respect that. "
Einar, who had heard everything, smiled with joy because, with those members of the Christian church, he could re-educate them to join the new Nordic Christian religion.
What they do not want can always be forced to work as bureaucratic ves, since arge poption is needed that can write and read Latin.
As for the noble traveler from the emirate of Cordoba, he could be an excellent guest to start a diplomatic exchange.
For Einar, the emirate of Córdoba is of the utmost importance because, as long as it is not conquered, it will prevent Christians from wanting to go west on their travels.
Which can lead to an ident like when Christopher Columbus arrived in the Americas.
"Father-inw, if you have a lot of trouble destroying the walls of Christian cities, I have a weapon that can help you.
It is called onager is more powerful than the catapult. With it, it will be able to destroy the walls of wood or stone of the Christians.
It''s notplicated to do, but I''ll show you how it works tomorrow. "
Vilhelm smiled and showed a face full of confidence "You can always be trusted, by the way, when will my daughter''s wedding be."
Einar paused for a moment before looking at his father-inw confidently "Next week we can prepare something so we can do the wedding in two weeks.
I know it can be a long time, but organizing the new ves will be aplicated task that requires all our strength to organize them.
Hope you can understand father-inw. "
Vilhelm nodded and showed his peculiar smile "I have no problem waiting, fortunately winter will prevent the Irish kingdoms from moving to try to attack my new conquests.
Although if you need personnel, I can lend you my warriors to help maintain order with the ves.
They may seem savage, but they are all elites who can keep their bloodlust in check if you ask. "
Einar took a deep breath and felt a relief "That would help me a lot because the most difficult thing is being able to keep many ves in order.
Past traders left over 50,000 ves, so you can see how muchbor I amcking.
If only I had more soldiers or warriors, it could be easier, but fortunately, it will only be for these months.
In January, I will have a group of soldiers ready to keep the situation in order. "
Vilhelm put his hand on his chin and looked at Einar seriously "I think I could wait that long, as the snow will prevent the enemy from attacking.
Although to avoid wasting time, you think if in the process of waiting you make those onagers you speak of and also prepare me some weapons for my troops.
I think it will be a good deal. "
Einar spread his hands in agreement "I think it seems like a fair enough deal for the two of us.
Don''t worry, I''ll see to it that your warriors have steel weapons, which are much harder than iron weapons.
You can kill any enemy quickly and efficiently.
But how about we have a meal while the warriors and soldiers start to unload the goods from the ships. "
While this was happening, Yaasir al-Zakaria, a noble traveler from the emirate, began to write in his diary.
<em>''2 Shawwal 216, Yawm al-''ahad day.1</em>
