The Sage of Einar

Chapter 294 - Arrival Of The Caracol Merchants

In the center of the tribe, Einar was gathered together with most of the tribe and the entire assembly of the Thing, who already included Natukt.

"Today, three changes will be made to our nation. To begin with, we will stop calling ourselves a tribe and from today, we will call ourselves Nordic.

Although the change had been made for a long time, today it will only be made official.

From today the tribe will be called the city of Asgard, in honor of the great Odin. In the future, this city will be the capital of a great empire.

The last and most important change is that the sacred constitution of our tribe will gradually be implemented.

Starting with article one, where it is guaranteed that every Nordic citizen will be protected by the constitution.

You will see the permitted articles of the holy Nordic constitution in front of the old great hall. Only children will be able to enjoy analyzing the complete constitution.

This is why they, as the future of the nation, must learn the content of the constitution as well as the operation of the laws.

With the laws shown, nobody will be able to judge them unless it is a judge, of course, for the moment the assembly of the Thing.

It will occupy that place, so each member of the Thing will study the constitution to exercise the judgments in the most impartial way possible.

I, as king and father of the country, will be the supreme judge and I promise before the constitution, my people and the assembly of the Thing to be impartial with the trials.

No one will receive superior treatment from anyone. Nobility is only an honorary title but has no power over justice.

I hope you can remember that. "

All the slaves, children, citizens, soldiers and even the Roman soldiers shouted in unison.

Especially happiness could be seen on the faces of the slaves, as they knew that Messiah Einar would do something to ensure that his children were never slaves again.

Nor that they had to live something similar to what their nobles allowed when they sold them as cattle.

After that little speech, many people approached the notice board where the articles of the constitution that were working were posted.

From the guarantees of private property, to the actions that slaves had to take to get freedom.

It is especially at that point in the constitution when they read it; the slaves wept with happiness because although they could not achieve all the previous points.

They only needed to join the army for two years or work for 5 years, so their freedom was guaranteed.

When Einar saw them cry, he simply smiled because the hope he was creating in them would flourish in a patriotism, similar to the American one in the 19th century with European migrations.

Of course, it cannot be the same, however, he was sure that it was the only country where slaves did not mind being slaves.

Turning his head, he looked at the Thing members who were talking to each other, so Einar approached them.

"I will give you a copy of the constitution in three days so you can start reading it.

If you can't read it, you can come with me, Aila, or one of the two monks in their free time.

It is important that the laws shown are learned, although it is a very complete book in the future modifications will be made and laws will be added or removed.

That is why in this time of trial we must be monitoring how the constitution works and if there are important things to correct.

Nothing will be perfect at first, but in the course of time we will improve many things ... "

At that moment the noise of the merchant alarm could be heard, so Einar smiled as he knew that one of the many merchants had returned.

So he looked at his father and the two of them started walking towards the harbor while everyone was enjoying the pleasant atmosphere of the constitution.

As he walked, Einar looked at the leader of the Roman soldiers Evaristus "I want half of your troops to accompany me to the port.

We will need all the help we can because I don't know how many new slaves and animals they have brought. "

Evaristus gave a Roman salute and organized his soldiers.

When Einar arrived at the port, he opened his eyes in surprise, as he could see more of 50 ships in the distance.

'They wiped out a Christian kingdom or what the hell happened that so many ships will arrive.'

Fortunately for the port, most of the Roman ships that had arrived were sent to the north port.

This so that they will function as the basis of trade between the fort north and the capital.

They would only bring them in when the new slaves will begin to arrive to colonize the entire coast of the island.

When the ships docked at the docks, Darían, who already had more refined clothes under the main ship and looked at Einar with a smile.

"My old friend Einar, or should I say King Einar.

Congratulations on your coronation as a king. I think you will be proud that I bring you about 25,000 slaves on these ships.

I also have about 5000 people who agreed to come willingly to seek opportunities in a kingdom like yours.

As for the animals, I have a boat full of chickens, roosters, geese, and ducks. It should be about 3000 birds in total.

I have your order for copper and about 500 goats and 300 sheep; I have about 40 tons of varied grain and a lot of other things. "

Einar nodded his head as he looked at Darian with glee "Well, you must have heard about my new flagship product, the flashy color painted fabrics.

I think you can take a boat full of fabrics and other products. "

Darían smiled and spoke with Einar, while the sailors began to lower the slaves. When they saw the beautiful port, they were surprised because they thought it would be a barbarous area.

Where there was nothing built, just maybe a group of tribal people, the Roman soldiers organized the slaves so that Philippa and Peder would check the slaves.

This is because Peder had learned from Felipa and Einar how to superficially check slaves.

Also with them, would be Aila and Angus, who would register each slave, so that in two days they will be given their vaccination card.

This is because when there is a new vaccination campaign, they will be sealed to speed up the process and guarantee that they are vaccinated against any disease.

Other people who went down were artisans, alchemists, artists, and free people who were looking for a new home.

Among the many artists was Morgan, a craftsman and artist of marble chiselling. He wanted to seek a new lease on life and escape the Christian kingdoms.

Because accidentally on one of his sculptures that he was working on, a stupid and arrogant son of a duke kicked the marble sculpture.

The result was that the sculpture fell on him, killing him instantly. Fortunately, he could escape from the place and took refuge in the city of Carcol under a false name.

Although he never thought he would go further north, at least he could work on what he was passionate about.

Another of the many people who came down was a young woman who had a wet habit and in her hand carried a book with a blackened leather cover.

She was Sia, a young alchemist who had inherited the same spirit of discovery from her father, a famous alchemist who tried to search for the mythical philosopher's stone.

But when he was killed by a priest who blamed him for all the atrocities in the village, Sia was saved because she was too young to be tried as a heretic.

Although the death of her father hurt her at no time, she didn't stop trying her alchemical formulas, which helped her many times to escape from the constant persecutors of the church.

That is why she decided to come to this place, because she heard it was a land that did not prohibit the discovery of new knowledge.

For a woman like her, that was the best thing that could happen to her, as she wouldn't need to hide or run anymore.

Another one of those who got off one of the boats was Gareth, who did it with his family. He had been an expert craftsman in tailoring.

He worked for a long time making the most beautiful clothes of the nobility, but one day, his workshop was burned by order of a nobleman in alliance with one of his competitors.

This caused him problems and debts, so in the end, with his little savings, he reached the city of Carcol, where he found out that he could have a new opportunity.

That is why he did not think twice and undertook a journey to the mythical kingdom of Konungar Einar, a place where nobles have no power and anyone can become one.

If everything the bards said was true, then his family would never suffer any more misfortune, because of everything the bards said.

The right to private property was something he never thought to hear in his life.

Finally, from among the boats, a man with gray hair came underneath, who had simple clothes but who carried around him many leather bags.

He was Bryce, a herbalist who had spent his life analyzing plants on the island of Britain, although he was not running or came out of necessity.

He wanted to know more about this mythical place that had managed to do so much in no time and that began to be heard as a legend by the bards.
