Chapter 735: The Miracle City on the Border
This kind of thing, except for the parties involved, others will definitely be angry after hearing about it.
Vladin can guess the thoughts of those nobles without even thinking.
Their income comes from two aspects.
The king's grants and taxes in the territory.
The former is fixed.
The latter depends on the prosperity of the territory.
The more prosperous, the more taxes are collected, and the higher the income will naturally be.
Let the new carriages made by the seekers of knowledge enter their territory?
Doesn't that mean that the original residents in the territory will be more likely to leave and move to Ceylon!
Even if this is a good thing for the entire kingdom.
Those noble lords will never agree.
The kingdom's things belong to the royal family;
The things in their own noble territories are their own.
This is their idea.
And this is not a problem that can be solved by the king issuing laws alone.
Issue a decree requiring the kingdom's territories to allow new carriages to pass freely?
It can be possible.
But for these noble territories far away in the eastern border, they have many ways to pretend to obey or secretly sabotage.
For example, it is a cold winter now.
After the road was opened, hint, instruct, and arrange some people to pour a few buckets of water on it at night. It will soon freeze into a dangerous ice surface, greatly increasing the possibility of accidents in the carriage.
There are many similar methods.
When the responsibility is investigated, the ones who are caught are also those who pour water and do bad things.
Don't think that the nobles can't do such things.
After seeing the faces of the nobles in the capital, Fradin now has great doubts about their bottom line.
When their interests are violated, these people may not be willing to abide by the rules and noble etiquette.
"Hiss..." Fradin got a headache the more he thought about it, and he was so angry that he was itchy. He took a breath with hatred: "Is there no way to solve this problem?"
Nicole shrugged helplessly.
"In fact, we have already taken measures."
"Even if the car can't get in, people can."
"So, since the beginning of winter, we have been sending people to several nearby noble territories. Everyone is working together to help those who want to move to Ceylon Territory to live, so that they can arrive smoothly."
"However, this is not very efficient. After all, our number is limited. If we bring too many people, on the road... uh, it is easy to have some unavoidable accidents."
Gail's mouth twitched when he heard it.
From this perspective, he can probably understand why the lords of several nearby noble territories are unwilling to allow new carriages and the like to enter.
Before the new carriage, a powerful weapon, is put in to clear the way, people are rushing to Ceylon Territory;
If the new carriage is really put in, will there be any living people in other territories?
This conflict is almost impossible to reconcile.
The more people go to Ceylon Territory, the more serious the damage to the interests of those nobles will be.
But Pate thought of something while thinking.
He spoke softly, as if thinking about something:
"There is a way that may improve efficiency."
"But whether it can be realized or not, we have to wait until we find Evelyn in Dawn City and confirm it when we meet her."
Leina's eyes lit up.
She guessed Pete's idea.
If it is related to Evelyn, it is inseparable from the power of the devil.
Add to that the demand for population migration and immigration.
What could be more convenient than the [Summoning Ceremony]?
In addition to borrowing the power of hell from Raphael, Evelyn can now become the second choice for believers seeking knowledge!
...
Everyone was discussing the issue of the nearby nobles leading immigration. Unknowingly, Ford's shouting came from outside the car again:
"Everyone! There are still 5 minutes before arriving in Dawn City. Friends who are asleep, please wake up and check your luggage! If there is any loss caused by omission, Worry-free Travel Car will not be responsible!"
Fladin turned his head and looked out the window in surprise.
"We're here? So fast?!"
In the past, most traditional horse-drawn carriages, unless they were top-quality horses specially trained and tamed by rangers, were not strong enough to support them running for a long time, especially when pulling heavy carriages.
Reading the error-free version! 6=9+Shu_bar released this novel for the first time.
When traveling, people often run and stop to give the horses time to recover their strength.
This magic-driven carriage does not need to have similar concerns.
As long as the magic crystal inserted in the high-frequency charging array does not exhaust its stored arcane energy, the endless power will steadily drive it forward!
Outside the window, the huge outline of Dawn City in the night can be seen from afar.
"Gulp."
Fladin swallowed his saliva in shock.
Although the scale of Dawn City is not as exaggerated as that of the royal capital Starosh.
But it has its own unique characteristics!
The night above the city has been completely dispelled by the lights and neon lights that are almost everywhere in the city, and the light is so bright that it seems like daytime!
The so-called "lights and neon" are, to put it bluntly, the effects of magic.
Whether it is the simplest [illumination] or the more complex [arcane projection] magic, it is a luminous light source that can produce light.
When hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of colorful light sources gather in a city...
A city that never sleeps, like a miracle, is born.
This place is more dazzling than the Holy Land of Glory, because no matter how dark the darkness is, it cannot cover the brilliant brilliance of this city!
The most shocking thing is:
It has only been more than two months since its construction began!
The birth of the entire city is a miracle!
Not only Fradin.
In the carriage, those people from other noble territories were also shocked when they really saw the appearance of Dawn City!
Although it still looks very simple in many details.
For example, the so-called city wall is just a rough framework, and there are actually a lot of projects waiting to be implemented;
For example, there is no heroic statue like Starosh that represents the craftsmanship of craftsmen;
But all the problems cannot cover up its breathtaking light!
If you look down from a high altitude.
After nightfall, on the almost completely dark land, other cities and towns can only be regarded as sparks, "swaying and extinguishing" under the invasion of the night.
Dawn City is a truly dazzling and bright new star. It has just been born, and it is spreading more light and heat to the world!
Dolan introduced to Fradin with a proud tone:
"This is your first time in Dawn City. You may not understand our pursuit and love for light."
"This city was built when Ceylon was in the disaster of eternal night. At that time, the whole land was completely shrouded in darkness."
"We found shelter here and welcomed the first dawn at the end of the disaster."
"Only after experiencing a long night can we know the preciousness of dawn."
"The most common and most popular thing in this great city is light."
"Now, and even in the future, Dawn City will definitely be the brightest and most dazzling city in the entire Prentis continent."
