Although I have made the decision to travel to the Northland.
However, at Isaac's level, it's impossible to do anything at his word.
Even in recent years, he has hardly interfered in any political affairs.
But the research, the proper arrangement of various experimental subjects, and the seals of many top-secret information, or stored in secret boxes...
Until ten days later.
This trip to the Northland has finally begun.
trade routes.
There was an endless stream of people walking through the traffic on Wells Forest Avenue.
"There is basically no room for bandits in the kingdom."
"Needless to say, the Rift Mountains are filled with Lord Kurtz's people. There is no room for strangers to survive for a long time."
"The same is true for the forest land. Under the arrangement of the consul for many years, various villages are dotted here. Each village has a militia team, plus regular patrol troops, and the presence of our spies.
There have been no robberies for several years."
"The only exception is the gravel wasteland north of the forest and between the Twin Mountains. Because it is too barren, in the past few years, bandits from barbarian tribes still appeared from time to time to harass the trade routes.
However, with Waba and Dunbar's continuous conquest of the southern mountains of the Troll Mountains, and our continuous clearing and consolidation of the wastelands, cases of barbaric bandits have become rare in recent years.
With this strategy and cooperation, I expect that it won’t be long before we can completely cut off the traces of bandits in the gravel wasteland.”
This is a large caravan with dozens of large trucks, but only about twenty people formally escorting it.
In the middle of the caravan, next to one of the two carriages.
Beasley, who was not wearing a mask, was on the side of the car window, briefly introducing something.
Their caravan is headed directly for Wellen and belongs to the "West Coast United Company". All the goods are for the new route and are trade materials with the New World.
Half of this route is within the kingdom, and the remaining half is mainly waterway.
Therefore, at least the half of the journey from the kingdom to the Twin Mountains does not require much guard power.
And after passing the Twin Mountains, at Midport on the Nabru River, the company's fleet was again there.
The caravan goes over and delivers the supplies to the fleet, and the goods unloaded on the fleet continue to be sent to the Green of Nature as the caravan turns back... This means that no bit of transportation capacity will be wasted.
Although Isaac did not directly interfere in business matters, with his extraordinary intelligence, he could understand the meaning of Beasley's words.
The biggest source of savage bandits in the gravel wasteland lies in the depths of the Twin Mountains and the Troll Mountains, which are difficult to conquer. They are all ogres and trolls, as well as goblins and kobolds.
Such bandits were continuously included in the Two-Headed Ogre's army as he continued to conquer the Troll Mountains.
Based on the relationship between the two-headed ogre and the kingdom's merchants, as long as resources are continuously developed there, supplies including food and weapons will inevitably be continuously transported there.
Furthermore, the barbaric bandits coming from the Troll Mountains are naturally rare from the source, or even eliminated!
In addition to the Twin Mountains, the Twin Towers, due to their relationship with Midport, will clean up monsters in the mountains from time to time, at least in the mountains close to the Trade Road.
In recent years, the route from Nature's Green to Mead Harbor has become one of the rare green routes that can even be operated without escort arrangements!
"How's the progress over at Port Willen?"
"Can the progress of the shipbuilding technology promised by the Seranchat family and the development of the Maztec continent be as good as that of the Amn people?"
Isaac's voice came through the car window.
Not intending to alarm anyone, the identity he used on this trip was that of an important member of the United Company.
Of course, although the United Company is mainly aimed at the development of the New World, there is no regulation that states that the company's key personnel cannot have other identities or have other trade dealings with the North.
"Although Rod Saiz represents the Seranchat family and has become a member of the six-member council again, he still dares not directly cheat everyone because of the many aspects of the company's composition!
In addition, the share planned for him by the company is quite large.
At Wilun Port, the scale of the shipyard invested by the company is already comparable to that of the Sailanchat family, and it is still expanding in scale."
"However, since the United Company has only been established for a long time, even if the scale of the fleet continues to expand, the development of the Maztec continent is still one step behind the Amn people, and the progress of Waterdeep City and Baldur's Gate is also behind.
A little bit half a step ahead of us.”
"The Amn people have completed the construction of a port city over there, named Port Heim, and established an inland city named Koral!"
"The Flame Fist mercenary group of Baldur's Gate has established a base called Fire Fortress."
"The merchants of Waterdeep City, the port first built there, was named New Waterdeep City."
Beasley did not dare to deceive him with lies. However, although it was slightly behind, the United Company was not completely fruitless: "With the support of the Consulate, the company has also increased its investment in manpower, called 'Saint
-Clovik's port city has initially completed the site selection..."
Maztec, this is the name of the New World.
And "Klovik" is exactly a part of Isaac's real name.
This was the name of the planned port... but Consul Thomas agreed!
Isaac nodded slightly, but there was a hint of deep thought in his eyes, and he said slowly: "The people of Amn have a natural geographical advantage, with many port cities, Baldur's Gate and Waterdeep are also the most prosperous and convenient
As a port city, we are really lagging behind them in this regard.
Even though I have seized the opportunity to cooperate with the Seranchat family this time, in the final analysis, Port Velen still belongs to the Amn people!
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! With the development of the United Company, the Kingdom must catch up and surpass them on the ocean, and have a port city that is completely our own. This is ultimately necessary!
After the trip to the Northland is over, you have some secret discussions with the Consulate to see where it is suitable to develop into a port, or where it is suitable..."
He stopped before he finished speaking.
However, Beasley understood what he meant.
The main territory of the Red Kingdom is either the Rift Mountains or the Wells Forest, and its rule over the gravel wasteland is not complete.
It is hard to say whether these territories have suitable seaside land that can be used to develop large ports.
And even if we can find a suitable place... from the port, we will undoubtedly continue to develop trade routes to connect with the natural green side. This is another huge project!
So...if Beasley's understanding is correct, once the site selection cannot be completed with the Consulate, then whether there is a place close to the Kingdom as an "alternative" target will undoubtedly need to be discussed!
Therefore, His Majesty’s explanation was to conduct a “secret discussion”!
While nodding his head to accept the order, Beasley was already thinking about it in advance. If he really wanted to explore the outside world... should he go south or north?
After the carriage.
Barrett followed the convoy slowly and unhurriedly, while his eyes casually observed the surroundings.
The main purpose of this trip is to go for the drow dragons.
I have a little contact with Dragon Film City, and I have been looking forward to the secrets of Drow Dragon for many years. This person will not miss it.
A few days later, the convoy first drove out of the forest and then passed through the wasteland. It arrived at Port Meade without encountering any accidents.
Indispensable is the exchange of goods.
With Beasley's entourage on the left and Barrett's escort on the right, Isaac has already boarded a fleet heading straight for Wellen City.
