One week has passed since Arga led his village, and many changes have occurred throughout the village he leads, including tailor shops, pharmacies, and shop blacksmiths have been operating normally, and on the other hand, land reclamation around the village has also been carried out well by Mada's guidance.

All of this progresses certainly made Arga very happy, but then Arga also realized that at this time he was still short of people, this happened because the expansion of the development of his Wijaya village was very fast, this could be done by Arga because he has a lot of financial and financial resources also expert guidance from Mada.

Who served as Prime Minister as well as warlord, so that then made Madame's knowledge very large and this certainly really helped Arga in developing his village.

"Master," Mada said to Arga who was currently at the blacksmith shop seeing the workers busy making agricultural equipment.

"Ohhh...Mada, what's wrong?" Asked Arga again.

"Report sir, the task of reclaiming agricultural land and also planting rice has been completed," Mada said in reply.

"Good then we will be able to harvest in a few months," said Arga happily.

"But sir, there are quite serious obstacles that interfere with our performance," said Mada again this time explaining the obstacles faced.

"Ohhh...what's that???" Asked Arga curiously.

"We are short of people's Master," Mada said speaking.

"Haa...I already expected this, and just thought I'd look for you to talk about it, look at this blacksmith shop... only 3 craftsmen are working to meet our needs, which is lacking" Arga replied said to Mada, also explaining the situation he saw firsthand.

"That's right sir, especially for agriculture, and also the village walls are still very lacking," said Mada again.

"Okay, let's get straight to the point, how many more people are needed, and how many experts are needed too?" Asked Arga directly about the main topic.

"If you count thousands sir, but because of the limited capacity of our village, we can only accommodate hundreds so far," replied Mada again.

"It's true what you say, it seems we are short of people to build houses" Arga replied, realizing that no matter how much he intended to increase his village population, it would only be a failure without adequate housing to accommodate them, Arga thought.

"Then you will buy another 500 people, and this time focus on building housing and village walls, reducing agriculture until the village is considered complete," said Arga giving instructions.

"Yes sir" Madame replied.

"This time I will give you 30,000 gold coins, and use them for all of these things if there is something important that needs to be addressed then do it quickly because we only have less than 3 weeks," said Arga again giving additional instructions to Mada.

After giving instructions to Mada, then Arga turned to check other shops in his village, this was done to see more clearly what problems were happening in the field because he didn't want to just get reports from his subordinates but didn't understand well, a true situation that occurred below.

So then when a quick decision is needed to handle an emergency situation that could occur, Arga will swiftly decide on the field. This is also something that Arga learned when he was on earth, where sometimes politicians or the government like to only listen to reports from their subordinates which are often not by what is happening in society.

Of course, it makes Arga learn to be a better leader, although not perfect, Arga is optimistic that he can make something much better than the politicians on earth before.

On the other hand, Mada who has been given orders by Arga to increase the number of villagers is now busy buying slaves in the market, she has briefly made the purchase of 500 slaves with details, 300 more are healthy men under 30 years old followed by women healthy under the age of 30 years and the remaining 100 is a combination of men and women under the age of 50 who have good skills in their fields.

And this time Mada focused on architecture and also carpentry where the village wall, which has now been built, is very short of experts and also lacks people to help build the wall, the rest then Arga buys a lot of finished bricks and also equipment for village defense and various other goods, which support the basic needs of the whole village.

On the other hand, within 3 days on horseback, a city looks quite majestic with a city wall of more than 10 meters high surrounding the entire city, there is a line of guards with more than 10 people dressed in semi-leather armor with mixed iron guarding in front of the entrance of the Gate.

They are holding spears and shields in both hands, currently looking sternly at all people who will enter the city, on the other hand, every citizen who wants to enter the city is given a tax in the form of paying an entrance ticket to the city of 5 copper coins to get into the city.

Individually paid with the criteria for adults aged 20 years and over, "lines....neat...don't make a mess or you will be arrested!!!" Shouted a soldier on duty in front of the city gate.

"Pay the city entrance fee of 5 coppers per person for adults!!" Said loudly the guard who was in charge of collecting the entrance tax.

When many citizens were queuing up trying to get into the city, from a distance seen a horse running fast while carrying the royal flag, and on the other side on the city wall, the soldier on duty to secure the city saw the rider who brought the banner from the kingdom, immediately rushed over shouted down the city walls.

"Open the way!!!!!...there's an envoy from the kingdom!!!!...the soldiers shouted on the city walls.

Hearing the screams of his comrades who were guarding the city walls, instantly the soldiers who were guarding below shouted..." Get out of the way... open the road... there is a royal envoy... open the way..." Pushing the citizens who were trying to get into the city towards the outskirts to clear the way for the royal envoys.

Not long after, a large black horse was ridden by a soldier in a green waistcoat carrying a royal flag passed by.

"Get out of the way....open the way...there's an order from the Queen.....!!!.." shouted the royal envoy as he rushed through the city gate and went inside.
