Three months have passed since the patrol knight code-named "Liu Yin" "mysteriously disappeared" in Harrison Port.
As Viscount Grant said, the Imperial City did give Port Harrison a stern warning at the beginning, but after receiving a video tape sent by a passing friend who did not want to be named, the punishment that was originally there was no longer followed.
During a banquet hosted by old acquaintances, Elder Puder heard the Viscount boasting about his well-informed knowledge. A slight conflict arose between the Imperial Capital and the Grand Duke of the West. One side believed that it had taken on the task of confronting the countries of Feiyan Land and was in urgent need of a large amount of support.
The other side thinks that Duke Thorin is simply greedy. If he really gives it, what is the difference between Duke Thorin and Duke Thorin becoming king independently?
If you don’t give me money, I won’t build the fortress!
If you don't want to build it, you won't build it. Let's see who is panicking!
This is obviously bad news. If the Imperial Capital and Duke Thorin really blame each other, and no one cares about the western defense line, then when the Flying Flame Cavalry gallops on the Great Plains, waiting for Harrison Port and other southern provincial cities is
Trade is completely interrupted, and they are isolated from civilized society and can only wait for the outcome of the surrender of the Feiyan Land countries.
If everything really develops like this, then things will go in the theoretical worst direction.
But, the good news is that there is also trouble over there in Feiyandi!
We are all Terrans, and we are all human countries. There is no reason that if the Empire is destroyed, Feiyan Land will not be destroyed!
While the Imperial Capital and the Grand Duke of the West were arguing over each other, the Nirmasas Alliance and the Absalom Alliance, two major bloodlines of kings that ruled the Upper and Lower Fire Lands respectively, were at war for the leadership of the fortress group.
The countries of the Nemathras bloodline were the main opponents in the past confrontation with the empire across the great desert, and the countries of the Absalom bloodline provided support from the rear. This resulted in the Nirmathas Alliance being the dominant voice in the alliance of nations.
In recent years, there has been no war between the Empire and the Flying Flame Land. The caravans from both sides have crossed the desert to exchange supplies, and the benefits are astonishing, making the Nirmathas Alliance even more powerful.
Now, the Absalom Alliance has opened up the mountain road between the two mountains. Whether it is trade or war, the initiative is in the hands of the Absalom Alliance, which has a better and shorter path. This pair has already claimed to be the leader of the Flying Flame Land.
This is obviously bad news for the Nirmathas Alliance, how could they accept it?
As the executive chairman of the Thirteen-Nation Alliance of Flying Flame Land, the leader of the Niemathas Alliance, 'King Tengsha' Braun Niemathas, requires the other party to hand over part of the jurisdiction of the fortress group, or to deliver a huge amount of trade to them.
Security deposit.
This suggestion is not too outrageous... After all, it was Nirmathas who fought and defended the country back then. So many people died and paid such a high price. It was finally peaceful, but you, Absalom, came to pick peaches?
But how can the other party accept it?
The interests in this process are not clear at all, because no one intends to explain it clearly. In short, until the two major alliances compete to determine who is superior, the empire does not have to worry about the day when the united Construct Knights roam across the north bank plain, because
They will beat each other's brains out first.
Rotten, rotten on both sides.
The competition between the Empire and the Flying Flame Land is in full swing. Of course, the Empire has no energy to care about such a trivial matter as the death of a second-level peak patrol knight in Harrison Port...
Rather, it’s a good death! This man must have been killed by Archduke Thorin!
You don’t have to think about the reasons at all. You can find them if you just look for seven or eight of them. Do you really know how to make them up if you don’t have any?
Naturally, Grand Duke Thorin could not accept slander. He angrily accused the imperial capital of using his name to eradicate the last remnants of the Dark Moon turmoil in the past, slandering his reputation, and killing two birds with one stone. It was simply inhumane, and both humans and gods were outraged!
It is absolutely impossible for the imperial capital to admit this. The Liuyin Knight Wei Gesi is loyal to the emperor and patriotic. He is sworn in with the rebellious parties who were turbulent in the dark moon in the past. He even personally killed many criminals who broke into the imperial court in the past. He is a good knight of the emperor and the people.
A good helper and a good example for all patrol knights!
He is dead right next to your sphere of influence. It was you who killed him. Don't even think about making excuses!
His life is very valuable, he needs to pay more!
Viscount Grant is not a very smart person, but he really understands the empire. He has seen through everything a long time ago, and he can enjoy the help from both sides with peace of mind while smiling at the same time.
After all, he really didn't kill the person, so it doesn't matter if he calls for a psychic identification. Everything has nothing to do with him, and Bishop Bai Wu of Huaiguang Church can also testify.
The bigger the dispute between the two sides, the better. The bigger it is, the more parties need to take sides, and before taking sides, marginalized people like him can take advantage of the situation and get some subsidies.
In fact, since a year ago, caravans from the imperial capital and even from the western provinces have been arriving one after another, making the viscount smile with joy.
I originally thought that life would be difficult when aid was cut off, but I didn’t expect that there would be a lot of subsidies and caravans!
It’s not just about subsidies, it’s also because the cooperation between Harrison Port and Tenglan Ministry has been quite effective.
Nowadays, the rich products in the redwood forest area and Nanling coastal area can finally be sold in large quantities through the demand for war preparation materials.
The fishermen in the fleet became rich, the hunters and herb collectors became rich, and the number of merchants naturally became more numerous.
There are also many rare catches that have never been seen before, rare monsters and sublimated plants that have never been hunted and collected, and there are more and more as the control area of Harrison Port expands.
The abundance of supplies, all kinds of strange creatures, World of Warcraft materials and sublimated plants of unknown value...all these factors make eyesight even more important.
Those who know the value of these things can easily accumulate wealth.
Some people became rich overnight, some lost their treasures, some sold rare and extremely precious gold pearls for a few baisems, and some sold the pearls for thousands of thalers.
This is Harrison Port today, and has been the trend for quite some time.
It was at this time that Oceana, a white citizen, passed away due to aberrations, which made people sigh with regret.
Although he was a completely bad person in the past, in the past two years, everyone's view of him has changed dramatically.
Indeed, he still lives in seclusion, is withdrawn and indifferent, but he has quit black mushrooms and occasionally helps his neighbors repair their houses. He can be regarded as a qualified white citizen.
The Ian Elland brothers, several neighbors, acquaintances, and the White People Elder Pude participated in the brief and simple funeral. Elder Puder, who had no heirs, announced that he would nominally adopt the Ian Elland brothers until Ian was fourteen years old.
There is no doubt that no one objects.
Just the second week after the funeral, Ian and Elder Puder visited the Viscount House.
After a cordial and friendly conversation, Viscount Grant decided to strongly support the independent entrepreneurial ideas of young white people, cultivate the professional standards of potential young people, and contribute to the future development of Harrison Port.
So, a few days later, an uninhabited small building in the new urban area in the west of the city welcomed its new owner.
‘White Room Grocery’…this is the name of the newly opened store.
On the surface, it is just a grocery store owned by the White Civilian Fleet. It also sells some low-level alchemy substrates and inscription tools. It is in line with the atmosphere of the new city that is dominated by alchemy workshops. It does seem like the White Civilian Fleet, which has made a lot of money, wants to
The practice of taking a piece of the pie in Xincheng District.
But in fact, its true essence is that it is a rare objects appraisal shop that has obtained the Imperial Appraisal Qualification Certificate.
In this case, the real supporters behind it naturally cannot be the White Chamber Fleet on the surface, or even the White People.
Only the Governor of Port Harrison, Viscount Ayers Grant, who defeated the natives and the uncrowned master of the South Ridge Coast, had such channels and strength.
The owner of this small shop is the young White People psychic named Ian.
