"It will be fine as long as the mercenaries fulfill the contract. Sir, if there aren't enough soldiers, we can simply hire a few mercenary groups, or we can ask them to station their forces here. Since this is a newly formed city, the mercenary groups will not charge you any fees as long as you provide them with accommodation. And, they will help you defend the city too," Jola explained to Saleen.
Saleen said to Jola, "This is my personal city. I will not place its safety into the hands of untrustworthy people. Sometimes… a contract is not binding."
"But sixty thousand people are needed. Even if we spend a year acquiring them, we will only be able to recruit half of that number." After Jola listened to Saleen's analysis, he knew that it was almost impossible to conscript soldiers. Almost all of the aboriginals had been captured by the Holy See, so Saleen could only rely on his wealth to amass manpower.
