Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ἡμῶν τὴν πόλιν
˱of˲_us the city
The masters of the slave girl are referring to the people of the city by association with the city itself. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the people of our city”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
οὗτοι οἱ ἄνθρωποι ἐκταράσσουσιν ἡμῶν τὴν πόλιν
these ¬the men /are/_disturbing ˱of˲_us the city
The masters of the slave girl are using the pronoun our to refer to themselves and to their listeners, so use the inclusive form of that word if your language marks that distinction.
