Chapter 108
In the following week, the area around Cape Moon was relatively peaceful, and the company and the church did not fight each other again.
The Silver Company urgently needs to calm down and lick their wounds. At the same time, they dare not act rashly until the arrival of domestic support and the secrets of the church's previous battle.
And the church needs to spend some time digesting the fruits of this victory.
War is never an end, but only a means.
Victory is just the beginning, the next is the dinner.
The church also paid a lot in this battle, including casualties on the land frontal battlefield, the remuneration paid to several mercenary regiments, and many sacrifices caused by Geng Gui's short-term display of power, etc.
As the winning side, they will naturally find a way to recover all these losses.
Under the premise of not being able to completely break the face with Silver, these losses will naturally be recorded on the heads of the local nobles who were captured.
Their family was forced to pay a large ransom and sign a new trade contract.
In addition, they have to be forced to agree to the church entering their territory, agreeing to the church stationing local sheriffs and various grassroots managers in the skin of priests.
These local nobles refused at first.
Because with the church's current operating model that goes deep into the grassroots, they themselves know very well that once the church is allowed to settle in, with the church's terrifying folk reputation, their territory may not be named after them in a few years...
But at the moment, they were all taken back to the capital of Lance, and they were treated as knives and me as fish. After some "friendly and friendly" exchanges in the church, they quickly agreed...
It also very "voluntarily" handed over the right to collect commercial taxes in the territory to the church.
It can be said that in this way their territory is destined to become the shape of the church in the future.
Since then, the church has expanded its actual control area in the Cape of the Moon by nearly one-third after this battle, and it can be said that it has made a lot of money.
Incidentally, it is worth mentioning that the church publicly announced her new name for the first time after the war, and since then it has officially called itself "Junsha Church".
In a short period of time, the recognition of this name is not high, and many people are still hard to change their old habits, and still like to call it the Church of the Holy Maiden.
But I believe that in the not-too-distant future, this name will spread throughout the New World.
Once in Mu's world, Junsha was just a family, but in this world, the word future will eventually become a belief!
At the same time, during this week, the repair work of the Black Pearl was successfully completed in the rush of the shipyard craftsmen day and night.
So far, after Dong Milia has carefully arranged the work of the church in the New World, she is finally about to usher in her destined itinerary——
She is going back to China with the Black Pearl.
This is also the core mission of Mu and the others on their trip to the New World: to take Her Royal Highness back home.
This day will eventually come, and the local church leaders are well aware of this, so no matter how reluctant they are, they can only bless.
The day before his departure, Mi Lu hugged Dong Milia, crying like a pear blossom with rain, the baby's face was full of tears, like a kitten who just learned that it was about to be abandoned by its owner.
Dong Milia touched her head, comforting her as if comforting a kitten: "Be good, don't cry, it's okay, maybe we can meet again in the future."
Mi Lu cried and said, "Your Highness, take me with you."
In fact, this time Winter Milia did not go back alone.
First of all, the first group of assistants her father arranged for her to come to the New World with her must all return to China.
In addition, she will bring back a group of young trainers who are absolutely loyal to her, as the cornerstone of her own team in the future.
On the surface, Mi Lu's loyalty and strength must be enough, but Dong Mi Liya didn't take her with her this time.
"Don't be silly, your brothers and sisters are still here, and have you forgotten your sister's last wish?"
Dong Mi Liya patted Mi Lu's head, gently persuading her.
Mi Lu used to have an older sister who took care of her and her younger siblings after her parents left.
However, forced by life, a few years ago, her elder sister was finally forced to choose a dishonorable job to make ends meet, just like the woman in the alley when Mi Lu met Mu and the others for the first time...
But even so, fate still refused to let them go. Not long after, her sister unfortunately fell ill.
At that time, the influence of the church had not yet spread in the New World. At that time, no one was willing to treat the poor and dirty people. Because Mi Lu's sister had not been able to receive effective treatment, she was taken away by the disease after only a few months.
After that, Mi Lu almost fell into despair, becoming sensitive, irritable, and even disgusted and hated men.
Fortunately, in those few years, the power of the church just began to expand rapidly.
She received elves, learned knowledge, and found faith in the church, thus changing her destiny.
Up to now, even though she thinks that her body and mind belong to Wintermelia, in fact, she still doesn't spend much time in the capital of Lance every year. She spends most of the year wandering around the Cape of the Moon, insisting on low-pay or even free medical treatment for those low-level people.
Perhaps the only thing that can make her hold back her ardent love for Dongmelia is the longing for her late sister that she can never let go of in her heart...
Dong Milia didn't take her away precisely because she saw through Mi Lu's mind, because she knew that if it wasn't for her own sake, Mi Lu would actually be reluctant to leave this new continent.
This time she insisted on taking away only a group of young people who had no worries and no memories of the New World.
She didn't take away the other subordinates who still had a heart.
Of course, not everyone agrees with this approach.
Some people even sent their ideas to Mu.
"Mu...Your Highness, why don't you persuade His Highness too? The number of people brought back this time is really too small."
Since the battle at Port Enuit was over, Mu's status in Dongmelia's camp has risen sharply. Now even if he is just a small navy lieutenant, some people have begun to call him His Highness...
But he didn't get carried away just because of a title. This time, he still chose to support Dongmilia's decision.
"It's nothing, it's actually pretty good."
The ones who are currently proposing to persuade her are the group of people that Dong Milia's father first arranged for her. These people are from the Kingdom of Windmillia, and they always only regard the church in the New World as a tool, a tool to help His Highness experience.
In their view, only the domestic market is the basic market, and fighting for the throne is more important than anything else.
For this reason, they can't wait for Dong Milia to pack up all the capable backbones in the church and bring them back!
But Dongmilia herself didn't think so.
The church is the first organization she has personally created since she was an adult, and it is her most cherished achievement so far.
She didn't want the organization to be reduced to an empty shell after she left.
So she kept all the cadres who cared about her, and didn't want to see the church fall apart overnight after she left.
Not only Mi Lu, she also left many other powerful trainers with main battle-level elves.
Such an approach is simply a huge waste in the eyes of those original team members!
Mu didn't judge the right or wrong of this approach, he just said something lightly.
"Government skills can be learned, but good faith is difficult."
What's more, the establishment of the church from scratch in six years, as well as the series of wrist manipulations before the First World War in Enuit Port, have proved that Wintermelia does not lack this talent!
Her confusion is just because she can't see the direction, not because she has no ability.
That being the case, Mu didn't think there was anything she needed to change.
Therefore, for this persuasion job this time, he firmly expressed: Thank you for the invitation, I will not accept it.
