"Your Majesty, this is the finance for this week," said Barov in exhilaration as he presented the report "In short, the figures show a better uptrend than we've expected As a matter of fact, they've spiked In the past, this would have been a miracle!"

"Yes Well done," said Roland as he leaned back in his chair His expression was a lot calmer than Barov because he kne the miracle had occurred Both the population and econo the Months of Demons this year compared to summer and autumn, the busy seasons This meant that the Months of Demons now had very little impact on Neverwinter The turn of events was so dramatic, it was as if the snow outside the as not real For the people in this era, this report would completely reshape their common sense

After all, when the cold winter ca productive It was as if they started to hibernate Thus, an economic slump was commonly seen in winter In the past, the entire border toas abandoned in winter Hence, how could the production and trade continue without people?

Population was the basis of industrialization, they guaranteed the expansion of plants and provided the prerequisite for econo he would care about

Perhaps in his eyes, rows of chinificent palace

"Stick to it, you'll get the reward you deserve," said Roland

"Being the Hand of the King is the best reward I could ever have It's your wise decision thatbut to follow your order," said Barov as he stroked his beard proudly
