The two thousand newly summoned residents were welcomed into town with a two day feast,before the registration building was flocked by them,as they went to register and have themselves allocated living residents,jobs and the welfare package I had prepared for newly summoned residents.
The packaged included foodstuffs,clothes and a hundred iron coins to kick start them in their new life.
As planned, each new resident would be allocated a job as per their skill sets. For accommodation,each was allocated a room in one of the towns hostels. After the second month,they would all be forced to live the hostels.
They would have to spend the coins they had earned during those two months to lease a house within the town.
Looking at the town from the top of the mini castle,I had pulled out the palm sized blue jade token that the jade like stone had shattered into to.
This palm sized jade token was the solution to populating my town.
[Congratulations, you have defeated an origin jade...]
[Rewards: Origin Jade]
[Origin Jade Taken: Within the jade is the origin power. The token can be used to increase once cultivation or bound to an item,place or being to bring about its origin or change its origin]
With the origin jade token at hand,I lead the rank one profound realm goblin puppet, that I had used spirit formation to transform its appearance to that of a middle aged butler,towards my mini castles dungeon.
There I utilised all my skills and power to dig out a hidden chamber two hundred metres below the dungeon floor.
The oly entrance to that chamber was a spirit door while hidden in my mini castle's stables.
The chamber was a death trap,with all the powerful defensive and offensive formations I knew of laid out in it. I also laid out a tracking formation,an identifying formation,a masking formation and a repelling formation.
Only those with the key to the said chamber could access it without activating the chambers formations.
As for the key to the chamber,there was only one,and it was bonded to me by blood.
All this I did as I planned on bounding the origin jade token to this town.
My hypothesis was that after the bound, the system would offer territory establishing quests that would reward me with summoning tokens.
The chamber was to house the bounded origin jade token.
[Congratulations, origin jade token bounded...]
[Name the territory bounded to the origin jade token.]
"Ranges..."
Such a bad naming sense, but who cares.
Ranges was the name I settled on since the region was a mountainous range.
[Territory Name: Ranges]
[System analysis comenced....]
[Territory has a town established on it.]
[Congratulations, on establishinga town on your territory.]
[Rewards:...]

[Portal:Mortal Ranked]
The rewards from the bounding process had left me flabbergasted.
The summoning tokens were on another level,I even received ten mortal profound realm summoning tokens. The heavens were truly on my side.
As for the food and resources, I was forced to craft a dozen more spatial sacks to save on storage space.
The food may not have been enough as to feed the close to ten thousand residents for a couple of weeks,but as for the resources, they were enough to cater for the towns need for a month or two.
The feast that was prepared to welcome the close to six thousand new residents went on for three days and night.
It was a good thing that all the administration buildings had a dozen or so clerks managing them. If not,it would have taken days to register, allocate jobs and settle down the five thousand plus residents.
As for the garrison,I had decided not to enlist more guards.
It was not untill everyone was settled and the town started to function as it should that I visited the stone gate that had appeared on open space at the towns front wing.
The stone gate was on a high platform. The platform was precisely three metres high,and circular in shape with a radius of fifteen metres.
The stone gate and the platform were covered in dense profound runes.
I could make no heads or tails of the inscribed runes.
From the moment the stone gate had appeared, I had sent my butler goblin and the five peak ranked goblin puppets to guard it. I was not afraid that the residents would tamper with the gate,but rather someone from the outside may use it to portal into my territory.
[Portal: Mortal Ranked]
[Used to portal from one human settlementto another.]
[Current portal not linked to any portal]
[Set portal to public or private access.]
[Private access:Only those with the portal access right can access a private portal]
[Public portal: Portal is linked to any portal within range.]
"Heck no!"
I cursed as I quickly opted for the private access. Though I now had close to a thousand cultivators residing within my territory with a third of them being members of the garrison, and powerful goblin puppets under my control, I was not ready to open up my territory to the outside world.
Thanks to this portal,I would no longer be trapped within this region.
I planned on heading out. Apart from exploring other territories and regions,I planned on carrying out trade on behalf of my town.
Being a newly built town,what we lacked most were farm produce,though plans were underway to utilise the logged forest region for farming,we still lacked a variety of seeds.
During my journey, I also had the intention of inviting a few professionals to move into my town. Though I know had the population that I lacked before,my biggest headache were the skilled professionals and administrators.
Luckily for me,the population I had summoned was between the age of early twenties to mid thirties. Their work power was at its peak,unfortunately,it was just a matter of time before they start conceiving.
At that time, a fully functioning hospital,equipped with necessary equipment,skilled doctors and care givers would be needed.
There was also a lack of medicine men and potion masters. These two professions were different from spirit masters,as the potions and medicine made by them were all used by mortals with no cultivation.
