Chapter 678: : Development, Docks and the Earl of Mullen's Trouble

"In the end, it's still lively in Dabang City!"

Zong Shen couldn't help but praised.

At present, the territory has a sense of belonging to "home", but it does not have the vitality of a city.

Like a puppet without a soul.

This is why Zongshen is so compelled to reform.

Most of the lords were satisfied with Yiyantang's way of governing, but Zong Shen was different.

He will never be satisfied with just being a little rich in a corner.

Zong's goal is to build a truly vibrant city!

Bangseong is much more lively during the day than at night.

It is also very safe to walk on the street, and you will not encounter too many right and wrong.

Squads of Bong Patrol patrolled every street.

Every few hundred meters, there will be an independent tower of twenty or thirty meters high dotted in the city.

Different defense nodes are formed.

After riding slowly for more than half an hour, they finally reached the pier on the river bank.

Saw the wide Nivare River!

The widest point of the river bank is about fifty feet.

Some narrow places are also twenty or thirty feet.

When they entered the city just now, they did not cross the Nivare River.

Because the location of this river is not in the direction of the green cypress forest.

The scale of the riverside wharf is very large, and it is roughly divided into three areas. The wharf market is close to the upstream direction.

There are hundreds of ports where merchant ships can stop.

There are also many coolies with small carts waiting for business nearby. They make a living by moving goods.

Each trip is charged according to the type and weight of the cargo.

This pier gathered tens of thousands of coolies.

With any luck, they can also earn 5 to 10 dinars a day.

Compared with the chores maids, the coolies do earn more.

After saving for a few days, it was basically spent either in the tavern or at the gambling table.

Moving bricks during the day is hard haha, and at night the pub is full of big coffee.

It's a matter of urban ethos and orientation.

That is why a good society must have good orientation and moral ethos.

It would be a very bad situation if everyone lived a decadent life of being drunk and drunk.

It can only be said that the situation in the Endless Continent is different.

After all, most of the ordinary humans here are still living a backward life like the Middle Ages.

Both ideologically and in every respect are in a state of ignorance.

Those high-level magic technology, engineering technology, and alchemy technology have little to do with ordinary people.

The natural magic and corresponding technology that can produce high yields are also mastered by the nobles.

A contradictory world creates a contradictory situation.

Zong Shen was fully prepared to suppress the productivity of the territorial people.

He wants to reform, he wants to expand, and only efficient productivity can ensure that he can expand rapidly!

Unleash the greatest potential with less land and population!

Every time he came to an aboriginal city, Zong Shen thought about the development strategy of the territory most.

Fighting is one thing, planning and developing the territory is another.

The two complement each other and are indispensable.

Zong Shen, who is from Earth, is familiar with world history and cannot be said to be proficient in the prosperity and evolution of the country, but he still has some understanding.

In this regard, there is another issue that has been overlooked by many.

That is, there are talents among the lords.

These talents are involved in industries above the earth.

There are also some very talented people among them.

At present, Zong Shen's [Guide Legion] has been merged with Medina's [Light Chaser Legion].

Medina was promoted to the second deputy commander.

Except for kicking people, Zong Shen opened up all permissions to him.

For the past two days, Zong Shen was busy with his big eyes, and didn't care much about the Legion.

I heard that Jiang Yi and Medina are joining forces to recruit people for the legion.

As long as the legion is upgraded to LV3, the [Legion Station] can be opened, and a borderless land with a radius of 3 kilometers can be delineated to build a station in this area.

At the same time, the [Legion Building] will be opened.

Among them are some legion-enhancing buildings that can cover every member.

There are also [Legion Chamber], [Legion Blacksmith Shop], [Legion Tailor Shop], [Legion Science and Technology Institute], [Legion Defense Research Institute].

It is said that after upgrading to the advanced level, the support portal can be opened, making the members of the [Legion] closer!

The current [Legion] development is still relatively slow.

Zong Shen's [Guide Legion] is the first legion in this region to be promoted to LV2.

Other regions dare not say that there are no level 2 legions at all, but there are certainly not many.

Because the development of [Legion] requires not only the efforts of the Legion Commander alone.

There are also certain requirements and thresholds for members.

Therefore, the development of the [Legion] is obviously slower than the development of the territory.

However, Zong Shen's [Guide Legion] actually still has spare power, and will soon be able to smoothly rise to LV3.

It's just that everything has to wait until the defensive challenge is over.

As the "graduation" challenge faced by the first batch of lords, its elimination rate is definitely not low.

Zong Shen was even prepared to lose a third of the Legion's members.

When the defensive challenge is over, he can go to receive another wave.

Territories that have failed to challenge will not recover battle losses.

Therefore, it is estimated that the buildings and personnel will not be brought back, but the legacy of the lords stored in the [storage box] should not be missed.

Of course, the specific situation will have to wait until then.

The three put the horse in a nearby tavern stable, and gave the waiter 10 dinars as a tip and storage fee.

The dock area is also a mixed place.

There are more people here than in the suburbs.

Those who can open a tavern here are all powerful in Wentrobang City.

Zong Shen walked in front, Joan of Arc grabbed the spear and Kanigia walked half a meter behind.

The marina market ahead is very lively.

They are all ship merchants, they don't need warehouses, the ships are warehouses.

Some big boat merchants have fixed stalls in the market.

At the same time, there will be three to five inland merchant ships entering the port.

It is very efficient to exchange one ship for another after it is sold.

There is no problem in dealing with normal purchases, but it is a little difficult to purchase goods of 600,000 to 700,000 or 700,000 dinars in one go like Zong Shen.

The total value of a ship's cargo is usually only a few hundred thousand dinars.

However, the dock market has already had a unique response. If you really encounter buyers who want more goods.

They will negotiate with each other with well-connected shippers and jointly supply.

Satisfy a buyer with several cargoes.

As a reward, other shippers participating in the supply will draw 20% of the profit to the shipper who accepts the order.

If there is food for everyone to eat, otherwise buyers will choose to go to the other two markets.

For example, the merchants in the travel trade market that Zong Shen went back to have a very sufficient inventory.

The tourist camps in the suburbs are all warehouses!

Although this world has storage space magic props.

But the price of that thing is extremely high, and the bigger the space, the higher the value.

If you want to rely entirely on storage space to stock up, the price is too high.

This is what the general trade group warehousing does. Like the flour, jerky, and cloth that Zong Shen purchased before, they are all primary commodities, and it is enough to put them in a warehouse covered with leather.

Those exquisite magical energy machinery, precious jewelry, high-end equipment, gems, rare ores and other high-value items will be placed in the storage props of the main responsible persons of the business group.

In the future, if Zong Shen wants to rob a state city or a giant city, the first one he will go to is the Travel Merchant Warehouse!

If nothing else, at least there will be no shortage of food and cloth!

"Come on, let's take a stroll in the dock market."

"I also want to ask the price of the ship, but unfortunately this is a downstream port and there is no shipyard."

Zong Shen said with some pity.

Joan of Arc nodded, and she saw something strange along the way.

"This city is suitable for developing commerce and becoming a transit place for goods."

"Not suitable for battle outposts and workshop cities."

In the Ironclad Continent, Joan of Arc is also an excellent conductor.

Her eyes can also see the type of a city.

Yes, there are types of cities too.

It depends on many reasons, it was doomed from the very beginning of the city.

For example, the city of Wentrobang, located in the southern end of the Nivare River Kingdom.

It is a natural inland port city and can also become a transit point for waterway commodities in the south.

In fact, Ventro has indeed developed by virtue of this advantage.

But it is not suitable for building a fort here.

To the southwest is the green cypress forest, and to the east is a large swamp.

To the north is a relatively flat plain terrain.

To the south is the green cypress forest.

Because of the vast territory, the Endless Continent is often hundreds of thousands of kilometers in distance.

So the topography is still very rich.

Think about the same on Earth, there are several types of landforms that can always be seen in a radius of hundreds of kilometers.

Such a city is not suitable for clinging, only suitable for circulation development.

Also in the southern region of the kingdom, the Wolf Tooth Fort thousands of kilometers away has a natural fortress advantage.

It is guarded in the area of ​​the rift cliffs, facing the carrion forest between the kingdoms of Avalon and the Nord kingdoms, and its location is on a main road.

If you want to detour from other places, you have to walk at least 2,000 kilometers.

Therefore, the positioning of different cities has already been predetermined.

But the lords have more choices than the natives.

Lords have a unique data-based construction system, except for those special high-level buildings.

Common ordinary buildings can basically be built casually as long as there are blueprints and resources.

There is no construction difficulty, fool-like operation, and the construction time is much shorter than that of the aborigines.

This gives the lords the advantage of self-construction.

For example, building a fort on a plain can be done as long as there are more resources.

No need to rely on any natural insurance.

In addition, the positioning of the city is also related to the positioning of the forces in the region.

Just like the area where Zongshen's territory is located, it was a giant city of the elves more than 10,000 years ago.

The ruins of the towering Azshara tower still exist today!

The positioning and judgment of the city also have certain knowledge.

Zong Shen had no choice. The simplest and safest method was to build a fortress.



Just when the three of them walked into the dock market while chatting.

In the conference hall inside the castle in the center of Wentrobon.

Finally, a conclusion has been reached on the subsequent tendencies and choices of Wentrobang City.

After considering the suggestions of most people, Earl Marron Babbitt decided to fall back to the Lord Broke family. After all, the Wolf Fang still swears allegiance to the king.

This is basically the case for cities and forces throughout the southern region.

The Queen's House of Trevassin mainly operates in the eastern and northeastern parts of the kingdom.

He will pass on the results of this discussion to the Babbitt family.

The Babbitt family is mainly in the central and southern parts of the kingdom.

Originally, it was a little bit inclined towards the king's side.

At this time, the family is also collecting information and feedback from the leaders in various places.

Finally decide which side to stand on.

After seven or eight hours of discussion, Maren Babbitt finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The next thing is also very simple.

The major forces in Bangcheng are willing to pay a sum of money or equivalent materials.

Give it to Earl Maren Babbitt to expand the size of the city army.

As a bargaining chip, the Earl of Mullen must ensure that the property in their state city is not violated.

During the turmoil in the kingdom, send more troops and build more sentry fortresses to ensure that the city of Wendrobang will not be affected.

Everyone understands the meaning of this money.

It is better to say that it is an exchange of interests than to patch together.

After all, everyone present was eating and drinking in Wentrobon.

If this is finished, then everyone will be finished together.

As a southern city, although it is an important inland trade port, it is downstream after all.

The strategic significance is not as important as the cities located upstream, and the risks are there, but not too big.

Earl of Mullen understood this, no matter when the storm swept the kingdom.

Even the slightest fallout can be fatal to Wintrobon.

It is absolutely necessary to prepare in advance.

After the funds are in place, he will immediately apply for a garrison in the Imperial City of Sageson and hoard double the supplies.

The plan has been clarified, and he can breathe a sigh of relief, so he picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea to wake up his mind.

At this time, his confidant butler pushed open the door and came to his side, bowed and whispered.

"grown ups."

"Miss Zoe ran out again..."

"Because she didn't have breakfast today, the lady sent someone to knock on her room."

"And then I found out that Miss Zoe was gone..."

"Miss took the adult gift you gave her, that finely forged Avalon armor."

"And a crossbow and a battering sword..."

The butler said in a low voice.

Earl of Mullen frowned.

"This child Zoe..."

"Has she not given up her dream of becoming an adventurer?"

"Immediately notify the commander of the Ranger Corps, Gold, and let him draw out two battalions of Rangers and look for the periphery along the main road of Bangcheng. UU read "

"In addition, after the meeting is over, privately notify a few black street eyes to help find it!"

"Don't post a reward for the time being, and don't make a sound, this is a sensitive period!"

"I'll go to comfort you, Madam."

"Zoe wears a storage necklace with a lot of spell scrolls and alchemy potions in it. She won't be in trouble so easily."

"My lady, I will go to appease it."

He tilted his head slightly and gave the order to the butler in a low voice.

"I understand my lord, I'll do it now!"

The butler nodded and turned away abruptly!
