After Becoming The Tyrant
Chapter 39 Port Free Trade Act
Northern, Newcastle.
Due to last year's Newcastle riots, the king ordered a military castle here to control the core hub of Newcott. The project has been carried out nearly eleven months, and the construction speed is not fast, because there is also a sporadic violence in the local area.
At the moment, the transportation vessel that should be arrived a few days ago did not appear. The building was stagnant, and the departments of Newcastle and the craftsmen were in an anxiety. They didn't know what happened. I didn't know how the project could not go smoothly. Can't return home for the same time.
As a designer of the entire castle, James jealously passes through a pile of messy wooden frames, entered the account of the station military commander.
"What happened!"
James anger rushed to shoot a stack of supplies on the table of the commander.
"Stone can also dig on the ground but the wood is not! One is not there! Do you want me to buy? This is your sincerity? Throw me into this ghost, then I don't give me, I want me It turned out a castle with the great Your Majesty? Why didn't he take my head? "
James's anger can be understood that he will originally become the designer of Sheng Joe, and the king is obeying his resume. He has to come to Newcastle.
Fortunately, James is very responsible. Although the resentment of the king is still trying to take the whole castle, he seems to take the design of each building as its own child.
The commander did not be rarely scared by him at the end of the nose. The quality of picky wood is not good enough. The stone hardness is not high ... Of course, the most often complained or raw material transport speed drags the trailer, the transportation vessel of the Five-Hong Kong League becomes "A bunch of broken speed is slower than snails."
Today, the commander is extraordinary.
He poured a glass of red wine to James: "The ship of the Five-Hong Kong League will not come."
"..."
James was taking an exhausted, and he looked at the commander at him, stunning three seconds, and then jumped like a old cat who was stepped on the tail.
"What! You have to discard this castle that built half of the city? The Holy Lord! You guys, you will ..."
"Stop stop! How do you say anything else?"
The commander stood up and pulled the cloak.
"The ship of the Five-Hong Kong League will not come again, but the castle will continue to build, come with me."
Newcastle is located in the northwest area of Rodon, and the wind is scraped. James and the commander stepped on the snow to the gate of the castle in the southwest of the castle. In order to prevent the sporadic mob in the local stream, the gate of the castle has been closed. The commander said a few words to the guards of the tower.
The suspension bridge is put down.
The city gate opened.
"See."
Commander said.
James walked two steps forward.
The city gate opened, the cold wind whispedly. A long team appeared on the outside snow, and the team fluttered over the scarlet banner, and the rose of the royal family was blooming on the banner of the cold wind shaving. The team is far from far and near, slowly, and scattered a small trunk rider around the team.
James saw it.
That is actually a long transportation team!
Their car is loaded with a pile of neat wood and other things, and the long team is coming. The armored cavalry in front of the team found that the city gate has been opened. He drives the team to see the commander and James who stands behind the city.
The cavalry turned over to the horse: "The first batch of materials is delivered, and the remaining materials will be delivered as soon as possible."
"How is this going?"
James looked at those wood and looked at the commander.
The commander smiled and laughed. He took the shoulder of James: "My dear designer! You should take your gaze from those stones and wood, and our supplies will be directly from Angel is shipped! How much is the wood, it is absolutely will not be a rotten wood that is soaked by sea water! "
James spent a half-day effort to understand why.
Angers have the highest rodonal density forest, with the best iron forest with the quality of Rodon. It is not far from Newcastle, but before this, the Angr Baby and the royal relationship are tense. The architectural castle must also prevent attacks from Angel, let alone from Angle to the wood.
But now it has changed.
Angers headed towards the royal family, the highest quality iron tree will continue to ship from Angr's hore, and the king will build the most robust castle.
There is also a smile and there is a cavalry on horseback.
He is a person who sent a protecting material in Angel. He grew up in Angell, it is used to the Angel to keep the lush forest but a poor washing. They live the most difficult life in the most rugged land, but now Rodon's business gate once again opened them.
Wood is shipped from the country of Angel, and the golden pound flows into the Angers's pockets, and they are even allowed to trade in the way in escort. In the past, I could only get simply obtained by robbery. If I can go flat, who wants to bleed and die?
This is just a beginning, Angel's day tariff revenue can't afford the days of Rograngjun's king clothes, a button will become the past.
"From Angel to Newcat, the place of the empire fluttering, the blood of the empire will be turbulent!"
The cavalry leaned over and swornually said.
..................
The king received a report of the castle building to continue.
In the case, James architects never willing to appear in the report.
In the letter, this guy who is full of eyes is full of the construction of the architecture praise the achievements of the king, followed by the king. Angel came from Tiemu growth for a long time, the texture is extremely hard, James has a new idea - he wants to play the military function of the castle to the ultimate, he wants to build a higher exploration building than the original plan. More mutual military towers.
"... They will be a gazebo tower standing on the earth.
Finally, talk about your own idea, James's pen is very enthusiastic.
The king saw this here, I always feel that this tone is a bit familiar: "Is our madness Academy of Sciences miss a member?"
What is the church designer? It is a war machine.
The last end of the letter, James exposed the true intention:
He reached out to the king.
The king browned the quarterly digital number of James, and the other numbers were written ruthlessly.
What do you want more?
OK, wait until the Five Union is sinking.
The royal family is now really poor.
Although I have to buy wood to Angell is cheap than the preparation of the five-Hong Kong alliance, it is huge. In addition, after the county is replaced, the militia will start, and the parliament on the front time agreed that the royal family expanded the private soldier.
The king does not intend to select his own private soldier from the noble knight, and his military reform is just a paper empty.
The new soldiers will be elected from all over the world and avoid too much contact with the old nobility.
According to the requirements of the king, this newly established private soldier has just begun to fight strong, but it has a high potential - as long as there is potential to cultivate it. Although the nobles from the nobility are better than civilians, their loyalty ... The king has to make a question mark.
Every day, the army will take a day of grain, send a day of military!
In short, a sentence: it is not enough.
The king happened to let the Five-Hong Kong League have went to the sea with their monopoly.
He put down the pen and took out the "Rodiang Port Free Trade Act" to check it again.
The name of the bill was organized by the king. When he wrote the word "freedom", if there was a smile and laughed.
it's time.
........................
Chamber of Commerce in the southeastern region has evolved to the stage of the collective strike.
The original, the busy port is quiet, and the vessel moored in the port. A large number of goods on the board did not unload, and the workers who helped handle the goods were gathered daily at the pier to see the business boat anxiously. The influence of the market's stop businessman is huge.
At this time, the same petition in the snow is flying from all over the city.
People who are affected by the anti-motion of the merchant expect this exercise to calm down as soon as possible - undoubtedly want to make a step by the king.
However, it is more intensified by the Southeast Chamber of Commerce, and the royal family does not end back.
The local nobles in southeast chose neutrality - the new "Port Limit Ordinance" has little attractive to them. But they don't intend to support the king, because the situation is in the situation, and the five-Hong Kong alliance is more favorable, the royal family seems to be more unable to withstand the commercial stagnation of southeast.
It is said that the ancient Ros family has prepared a feast of celebration victory in Kissosa, the headquarters of the Five-Hong Kong League.
Just when the situation developed to even the small chambers of commerce became uneasy, the royal family has finally reacted.
The king announced a new maritime business bill.
"Rodon Port Free Trade Act".
This is a regulatory and anti-monopoly bill named "freedom".
This bill broke the magic dream of the five-Hong Kong alliance victory.
Almost the first time announced by the Act, the Xuanda of the Five-Hong Kong League's conference was issued from the port of Kissosa, flew to each coastal commercial city.
The king did conquer.
But not for the Five-Hong Kong League, but a coastal businessman in the southeast.
.......................
Cos Soa Port, Fans of the Five-Hong Kong Alliance was held.
Unlike the Five-Hong Kong League Brothers, the Five-Hong Kong League Membership includes all members of the core five-Hong Kong. There is a strict level division in the Five-Hong Kong League, and each urban chamber relies on the specific strength to divide a formal alliance member and an informal alliance member.
The protagonists that have always been the core of the core five.
But today has changed.
The venue is quiet.
The father of the ancient Ros is more ugly than ever, and the Dousen family refuses to participate in all the five-Hong Kong League meeting after the last exits the brothers. The remaining three major commercial families are sitting in the upper face.
"The attitude towards the new bill is surprised. Do you really think that is a liberty of the Chamber of Commerce, a unified jurisdiction directly to the royal family, and you intend to give up the autonomy of us to sacrifice our efforts. ?"
His voice is pressing anger.
The venue is still silent, and the silent itself is a terrible statement.
"With autonomy, you are not us."
Finally, someone opened it.
It is the representative of Hainnis City Chamber of Commerce. Hainnis is one of the official members of the Five-Hong Kong League. The ancient Ros originally thought that the first opening will be at least an official member. Haynis City Chamber of Commerce got up.
"Henis is joined in the Five-Hong Kong League three years ago, because if we do not join the League, our passenger will not be able to go through all major ports, and we need to bear the twice of other people."
"After you become a member of the alliance, the League did not share the privilege of the first port with you? Nothing to protect it?" Gurose asked.
"If you call the kind of privilege, it is also protective and equivalent, then I have nothing to say." The Hunis Chamber of Commerce represented coldly. "We joined the league, the public can independently use the League 'Baron' title It is indeed a seat at your brotherhood, it is indeed possible to speak on the allied affairs [1]. "
His speed is getting more and more urgent, obviously resentment has long been.
"But just this!"
He pointed out.
"We must share the Navy service of the first Hong Kong [2] must bear the cost of the first port to participate in the Parliament and various royal ceremonies, and we must provide a lot of rewards to the first port every year! But we have no voting rights! Participate in various affairs What is the use, we are dumb and bystanders! Such privileges and autonomy, who wants to take it! "
"Haynis Chamber of Commerce officially quits five Hong Kong alliance!"
The Habi Chamber of Commerce issued a logo badge of the five-Hong Kong League from the chest, throwing on the ground, he looked at the ancient Ros, when his face passed directly from the badge.
The ancient Ros is a silence of a breath.
The five-Hong Kong alliance is the core as the core, and the badge is the white boat in the ancient Ros family logo.
"Please allow my speech."
Another city chamber of commerce representatives took off the badge in the chest.
"I also don't think that we have real autonomy rights - our municipal officials are sent by the first port. In this case, the officials who accept the royal family are not the same?"
Another person stands up.
Metal badge or throwing on the ground, or throwing on the desktop, making a crisp sound.
The ancient Ros is sitting in the position of tough old people, and the remaining three families of the family are cloudy.
Why can't I change this?
Because the new bill issued by the king.
"Rodiang Port Free Trade Act"
Based on this regulations, all the major chambers of the southeast coast will receive "equal" treatment of colleagues.
The tariff protection privilege belonging to the Five-Hong Kong League will be canceled, the 13th century awarded the Wool Wine Franchils of the Five-Hong Kong League will no longer exist, the five-Hong Kong-Hong Kong-China market supervision governor will be canceled, the five-Hong Kong alliance will not The right is taxed again because the management lighthouse is taxed ...
As long as the merchants announce the exiting the five-Hong Kong League, join the "Free Chamber of Commerce" that is about to be built by the royal supervision, they can enjoy these rights.
The destination of the king is very obvious.
He is happy to throw all the business to all business people like a defeated house, thus exchanged the Five-Hong Kong Alliance Creating the Chamber of Commerce.
"The damn guy! Is he crazy ?! How did he dare to let everyone enjoy such rights!"
Gurose couldn't help but curse the empty venue.
There is only the first member of the five-Hong Kong League to stay here.
"What do we do?" The black sprinkle of the poisonous spider appreciated his own white gloves, whispered, "To know, the Dunson family seems to put into the arms of the king? What about it?"
"impossible."
Gurrose came.
His look is cloudy.
"Some people can help us." He said slowly.
........................
The king looked through the news from Southeast.
"There is no decaying trunk, how to blow it?"
The king sighed.
The internal service is gently walk in: "Some people want to see you."
"Who?"
Handicard Take a little complex: "You ... scientists."
He did not directly say "mad" words.
The author has something to say: [1] After the 13th century, the privileges owned by the First Port of the Five-Hong Kong Alliance in England and the privileges owned by ordinary members have a huge difference.
[2] First Hong Kong here refers to five core port cities
