Bella seemed to be planning to directly express the plan for the development of Yuewan in the next year at this ribbon-cutting ceremony, which should have been said at the end of the year, so the speech part of the normal ceremony was particularly long.
As for why I didn’t choose to cut the ribbon on the end of the year, on the one hand, it was because the citizens were busy celebrating the festival that day, and probably so many people wouldn’t come out to watch the fun. On the other hand, it was because her divination showed that today was the most suitable.
In short, the last ribbon cutting started at nine o'clock, and it was almost ten o'clock to enter the final stage. The platform used for the ceremony was removed, and the countess got into the carriage with the Belindel family badge parked at the entrance of the bridge.
.
Then, amid the sound of salutes and people's cheers, the carriage broke through the red ribbons blocking the bridge under the driving of Matilda, and then extended the bridge deck at the bottom of the tower bridge, amid the sound of cannons.
Passed the flat bridge.
The flash allows the camera to record this scene from all angles. In the years to come, people will remember through black and white photos on the most grand ribbon cutting day after the disaster. It was the first time that the Countess' carriage passed through. This carries the city's hope.
Moon Bay Bridge.
Colorful balloons were released from the river boats into the sky, and the unlucky pigeons were driven to the blue sky behind the snow in the middle of winter. However, these white pigeons were borrowed from the Church of Peace, so they were later
I will fly back to the church yard.
In short, it marked the "rebirth" of Yuewan City after the catastrophe, and also marked the complete control of the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the Belindel family in the Yuewan area. In this way, the entire process was successfully completed on this Sunday morning.
There was no assassination, no opposition, no bad weather, and even when the pigeons flew over the crowds attending the celebration, they did not excrete to the crowd.
"So the diviners are really amazing, and today is indeed a good day."
Although the ribbon-cutting ceremony ended in the morning, there was a special banquet to celebrate the event in the evening. The banquet was held directly in the grand auditorium of the city hall, and this time, ordinary people were of course not invited.
Shade accepted Bella's invitation to attend the banquet, and this time his identity was still "coon". However, he spent most of the day at Mr. Albert's place, and the blood-sucking coroner before parting in the afternoon gave it to him.
A can of Xiade is said to be a specialty of Yuewan as a gift.
This is not a gift at the end of the year. Xia De will come to visit in a few days. This is just a casual gift, but looking at the appearance of the things in the glass jar, Xia De feels that neither he nor a cat should like it.
The grand banquet at night also vigorously demonstrated the heritage of Yuewan as the "City of Wealth", fresh venison and greenhouse-cultivated fruits such as raspberries are not limited to the supply.
Although Xia De did not take out all his special cards, he also had a very nervous and exciting competition with local poker players on the sofa in the corner of the banquet hall when Bella was busy with social engagements.
Although he failed to win the special rule card, because he got the best winning rate, he finally received the "Moon Bay Bridge Cup Rhodes," which was specially created for this banquet by the local Prophets Association after receiving sponsorship from the Belindel family.
Card Contest Memorial Medal”.
It was a pure gold medallion the size of a palm. Before the dance began, Shade learned from Matilda again:
"This is specially created by the lady for you. She knows that when you attend a banquet, you will play Rhodes because you have nothing to do, and you will definitely win."
The two hugged behind the curtains beside the window at the east end of the third floor of the town hall, the blonde maid's voice was soft:
"Don't tell the lady, this is what I told you."
"Of course I won't say it."
So Matilda kissed Shade gently, then squinted his eyes and smiled and reminded him in a low voice:
"The dance party starts after twenty minutes, be careful not to stick to my perfume smell, the lady will find it."
The first dance of the dance was performed by Bella and Shade. Today is a big day for the countess, so she was particularly excited. She had received training in a noble lady since she was a child and almost stepped on it with her high heels while dancing.
Xia De's feet.
"Now I feel like I am standing on the top of Moon Bay. In the past, the seven major families fought for this position, and it turned out that it was because of this."
She smiled and said to Xia De to the sound of the dance music, and Xia De pointed out:
"The top of Moon Bay is Belindel Big Ben. Don't you stand up often?"
"You know what I'm talking about, and the taste of power is really good. Of course, I still remember who I am, and the power of ordinary people cannot be compared with its own power."
The Countess gently pinched Xia De's hand, feeling that she was quite fulfilled tonight:
"But since I already have powerful power and powerful power, should I also have it?"
Just when she had distracting thoughts because she was born with too beautiful people, and then she had some thoughts that were not in line with the identity of a witch, that is, she wanted to leave Xia De for the night, Matilda came hurriedly with a piece of paper holding a piece of paper
When they just walked down from the dance floor, their expressions were very nervous:
"Miss, Virondale sent emergency information, and the signal given was the highest red flag."
"What, can the Anjou royal family still want to take Moon Bay from me through violent means?"
Bella was a little unhappy and opened the secret letter that was sent through special means, and translated the password in her heart and translated the content.
"What happened?"
Xia De asked, Bella frowned slightly and said in a very light voice:
"The war is on."
"What?"
"The Duchy of Set and the Principal of Milson went to war. The two are located on the north and south sides of the Pantanal Everglades. Regarding the trade route dispute after the normalization of the Everglades, these two principalities are also the main participants."
The names of these two small priests, Shade, knew that Virgil Cameron, the other player in the championship battle for the "1853 Great City Player", was the rumored lover of Grand Duke Site - both of them were men.
This principality belongs to the Kingdom of Delarion in the north;
The Principality of Milson belongs to the United Kingdom of Carsonrick in the south, where it is the headquarters of Meghan and Audrey's "Paradise Island Pharmaceutical Company".
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥Book⊥⊥⊥First⊥!
After their father, Alphons Edwards, fled Lake Green with his brothers and sisters, settled in the small principality. Megan and Audrey grew up there, so of course there were also reasons for choosing a small principality to avoid taxes.
Because the Principal of Set and the Principal of Milson both contain part of the Pantanal Everglades, the land area of the Principal is interspersed in the small Principals of Carsonrick and Delareon in the middle of the Old Continent.
A relatively large batch.
But because of the harsh environment of the Everglades, the actual land area that the two countries can use is not very large. Even though the "land" borders, the two countries rarely appear together in newspaper news in the past, except for Pantana
Apart from the competition for trade routes, it can even be said that there is almost no social communication that is well-known.
"Who fired the first shot first?"
Shade asked, and Bella looked at the information and replied:
"I don't know yet. At the beginning, it was just about a railway inside the Great Worm. Friction broke out on the construction site, and then a swamp border patrol team intervened. What happened later happened was different, but there were casualties.
This evening, the Principality of Set and the Principality of Milson sent people into the Everglades, and then both sides officially declared war."
She seemed worried:
"Although I guessed it would be like this, it's still worrying to hear this news. Matilda continues to pay attention to the intelligence of Virondale. Also, although we don't have many intelligence personnel in the Principality of Milson, we don't have many intelligence personnel.
, but there is no chamber of commerce?”
"Yes, Miss, it's the Eddington family who are mainly responsible for the situation there."
"Old Martin doesn't have a ring warlock, so he probably doesn't know what's happening there and communicate with the Eddington family, find a way to contact the Chamber of Commerce, and let them continue to pay attention to what's going on there."
As a region with strong independence, Yuewan has trained agents from the seven major families in power. Although it cannot be compared with MI6 and Gray Gloves, it is better to have it in this special period than not.
Bella originally planned to try to stay in Shade overnight, but she felt that she was no longer in the mood. She probably couldn't sleep tonight. The two principalities that declared war will definitely break out in the swamp tonight, regardless of the result of the battle.
No matter what, it will have a profound impact on the order of the next Old World.
Looking at the grand banquet now, holding the note in her hand, she felt that she could sense the light and shadow of civilization. Xia De also saw Bella's worries, so he said goodbye after the dance, which made the man
The blonde countess felt guilty and felt that she had neglected him a little today.
Similarly, Galina, who was far away in Tobesk, naturally knew about the two principalities declaring war on each other. Xia De asked her one morning afterwards whether she knew before the war or only accepted it after the war.
Up to the news, Galina's answer was very vague:
"My nephew trusted me very much, but the intelligence he told me was related to four place names, and it seemed that I was wrong about his hint."
The war between the Principality of Set and the Principality of Milson became a hot topic of discussion in almost all newspapers throughout the Old Continent in the days following 1854, even those such as the Tobesque Citizens were keen on talking about aristocratic gossip.
Tabooists will use one or two pages to tell people the story between Grand Duke Set and his lover.
Since the Steam Revolution, there has never been such a serious military conflict in the Old Continent. The last time the two principalities formally declared war on each other happened, according to the priest Augustus, his grandfather was still picking up cow dung as
Fuel for winter.
This winter of 1854, which was originally particularly difficult due to weather, reached the end of the year amid the discussions about war.
