The citizen class of Semanud City has surrendered.
A large quantity of money and grain was sent to Losa's Governor's Mansion, military camps, and the churches belonging to the Saint Lazarus Order, with part of it used for military needs and the rest distributed to the poor masses.
The wealthy Egypt, worthy of its reputation as the former Empire Grain Storehouse, had local magnates among the citizens, each rich beyond measure. Master Saman not only owned vast rural estates but also monopolized the textile industry of Semanud City and several nearby cities.
From silks worn by nobility to linen fabrics worn by the common folks, all generated income for him.
Moreover, Master Saman had several sizable glass workshops in the city. Glass, textiles, wine, and olive oil - these Egyptian specialties were often exported to the Indian region in exchange for valuable spices, gems, and ivory.
