Chapter 75

[2 AR April 28]

It would seem that the tribe should be calm now, but this is not so, now each member of the tribe is celebrating the unification of all tribes into one. Even the losers feel a little pride.

As usual, Ivo stood on a circular platform, and around him was a huge crowd of his people. Having calmed the people so that there was silence next to the platform, Ivo began to say "Brothers and Sisters, today is a great day for all peoples who have the blood of our ancestors. Now the whole valley belongs to only one tribe and there is no longer any conflict between the tribes. "

"But this is not the only news, I also announce that now there will no longer be a tribal system in the valley, instead of a raven tribe a new state will be formed, which is called the Esnor Empire, led by your Tsar Ivo Esnor."

After his words, he unfolded the paper, the paper depicts a black two-headed raven with spread wings, a raven holds a sword and a staff in its paws, and the raven has two crowns on its head.

Showing this drawing to everyone, Ivo said, "This is now the official coat of arms of our Empire. Any stranger who sees this drawing will understand that he is in our lands and that he should abide by our laws and traditions. "

At first, the people of the tribe wanted to be indignant, since the tribe abandoned their ancestor Raven, but when they saw the new coat of arms, they realized that Ivo did not destroy his ancestors. Therefore, they were pleased.

Then Ivo said "These are only the main announcements, we will carefully consider all subsequent changes in the council."

After finishing his short but important speech, Ivo came down from the platform and let his people enjoy the holiday. After the war, they looted a lot and now his Empire has enough exotic things that will appeal to his people, but his country will definitely need to start producing all the luxury goods on its own.

The rest of the time, Ivo spent with his Queen. Now she already has a small belly, so Ivo decided to spend as much time with her as possible. Ceres was only glad that her lover had finally returned from the war and now he pampers her.

In a good mood, Ivo looked after a small tree that grew in an earthen pot. Thanks to the constant feeding from the energy of nature, the tree has already fully grown and unusually beautiful flowers have appeared on it, which are painted with a milky pink color. Ivo counted 7 flowers, therefore 7 peach fruits should grow on this tree.

Having played enough with his treasure, Ivo went to the council chamber, since after the founding of the Empire, many questions arose that needed to be resolved.

On the way there he checked his FPs, during the war he got a lot of points, now his balance was 20115 FP. Now he could not think of any things on which he can spend points, since Ivo can make spells, techniques, runes and more on his own. The only thing he can spend points on now is some artifact, but he has not yet figured out which one.

Reaching the meeting room, Ivo greeted everyone, and then everyone began to discuss plans for the future.

Various plants have begun to be sown in the fields, which can later be harvested. But this time, the farmers did not recklessly sow the fields. During the war, Ivo found many plants that could be cultivated, so he finally organized a crop rotation in his fields.

In addition to edible plants, Ivo also ordered farmers to start growing useful plants such as cotton and flax. Now all the people in the Empire began to feel attracted to pants and shirts, but leather is an expensive product that even barbarians are not so easy to obtain, so Ivo decided to establish textile production.

But now Ivo was not very worried about textiles, since he was sitting on his stone throne, examining a small round coin, the number 1 is indicated on one side of the coin, and a two-headed raven on the back.

This is an Esnor krone made entirely of iron. Ivo ordered to make several such coins, in denominations of 1,5,10. He did not come up with various alloys for his first coins, because when he had textiles, he would start making paper money, and later he would replace iron coins with something else.

Now Ivo has a problem, he is thinking about how to introduce this money into use. Due to the large population, the simple distribution of food can lead to problems, so Ivo decided to create a monetary system in the Empire.

He cannot just go out in front of his people and say: Now this is your money, so you have to exchange it for different goods. People will do this, but then they will not understand the value of money, it will only lead to big problems.

The population of the Empire must understand that these coins are worth something. Remembering his past life, Ivo wanted to use gold as a guarantor of these coins, but although almost everyone loves this beautiful metal, now gold is not highly valued in the empire, so this option is not suitable.

Finally, Ivo came up with one good idea, alcohol. The fact is that only some tribes knew how to brew low-quality alcohol, while the remaining tribes received alcohol while hunting. Hunters sometimes found fruity alcohol in the habitats of some humanoid creatures. For example, some monkeys put fruit in the hollows of trees, so these fruits began to ferment and make wine.

Since this product is in short supply, all tribes appreciated alcohol, so Ivo can gradually introduce money into the life of the Empire. He will start giving out salaries, and then he will allow people to exchange money for alcohol, later he will begin to exchange other products and over time, everyone in the Empire will start using money.

Having dealt with his plan, Ivo proceeded to implement it. After all, the first thing he still needs to start is to produce quality alcohol. Thinking about his options, he finally settled on beer, wine, whiskey and brandy.

Within a few days, Ivo had already begun to implement his plan. Together with Atreus, he discussed the structure of the Alcohol Workshop. In addition, today Ivo decided to finally rebuild his chieftain's house into a more suitable mansion.

First of all, Ivo set aside a small area for his mansion, around which there will be a fence with beautiful patterns and a gate in the center. Inside the territory, there will be just beautiful green fields with decorative trees.

Remembering the Vevet mansion, Ivo also ordered that a quiet and peaceful garden will be built for his wife, in which she can rest from a busy day. In addition, there will be a training field where anyone can exercise in peace.

All these places will be connected by a stone road, which will eventually lead to a three-story mansion. On the ground floor, there will be a spacious living room with a fireplace, a dining room, a kitchen and an extensive library.

On the second floor there will be 8 bedrooms, which in the future will be used by the residents of this mansion, in addition, there are 2 classrooms for meditation and teaching.

On the top floor, Ivo's office will be built, as well as two magic laboratories for practicing alchemy and other magical research.
