Chapter 637 Triangle Trade Zone
"You mean, the Municipal Council caused a Cold War-like situation between the two trade centers in Ulthuan?" Liz's eyes gleamed, this was big news.
Imrik was smarter than she thought. Everyone knew that the Phoenix King was behind the Municipal Council, but when he opened his mouth, he explained the importance of the Phoenix Court and left the conflict to the nobles of the council.
The Phoenix King wants to ensure a glorious and majestic image in the hearts of the people, but the council lords don't need to. The Asurs, whose income is shrinking, will only complain that the nobles have no choice or ability.
"Yes, as far as I know, the chairman of the Lothern Municipal Council is very opposed to this matter, but I don't know the specific situation because I have been away all year round." Passing the blame to the old man who is the chairman of the Lothern Council
. , Imric had no burden for this. He originally wanted to give some funds to the Tai brothers, but was forcibly morally kidnapped by their grandfather and trapped on the political chariot of Itaien.
In order to add some authenticity and give the newspaper a big news, Imrik talked about Yrys, the famous poor ghost kingdom in Ulthuan,
"I had an exchange with Eltharion, the Drift Islands around the Temple of Loic It has the potential to become a good location. Because the land of Yiris is relatively barren and lacks the output of high-value commodities, the two countries are preparing to work together to build a transfer station on the Drift Islands to facilitate the exchange of ships from the Old World. This aspect complements Yiris On the other hand, it also allows Asur on the barren land to feel the tangible benefits from ocean trade."
Liz said in a daze, "Unbelievable."
She seemed to have thought of Imric The trade blueprint was constructed, and New World goods were sent from Young Dragon Bay and Old World goods from the Drift Islands to Lothern.
Lothern is backed by four inner ring kingdoms and can produce high-value goods for trade. The flow of people may be much less than before, but as long as the goods can be quickly moved out, the profits will never be lower than before.
After taking a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and waiting for Liz to come to her senses, Imric glanced at the three old men beside him and found that they were not interested in these things at all.
The slightly anxious face only expressed one thing, finish talking about these nonsense quickly, the dragon is the most important thing!
After coming back to her senses, Liz showed a slight smile to express her apology and leaned forward a little. Originally, she was ready to listen to the Dragon Prince playing Caledor, but she didn't expect that it would get such big news.
"What is your philosophy on trade? What you said seems to conflict with the ideas of Trade Secretary Keyes. For many years, Ulthuan has believed in his ideas on controlling trade." "The country carries out basic control
. In addition to non-commercial risks, try to avoid political interference in the market. Personally, I have never expressed appreciation for any product and will not guide people to deliberately consume. I am definitely not a fool like Case, under the guise of The free trade flag implies that people buy large quantities of goods that he is optimistic about."
Liz, who was not surprised, asked her assistant to quickly write down this sentence. Tomorrow's news headline will be "The Dragon Prince angrily scolded the Minister of Trade for leading the people to deliberate consumption and disrupting the market order. 》.
As for the so-called sense of honor in Itaien? She would come here and be ready.
But while she was doing things, she didn't forget about the business,
"What is your outlook for the future trade plan of Ulthuan?"
"Use Lothern as the connection point of Ulthuan, connect it to the Dragon Bay and the Drift Islands, and then use The two overseas fortresses will connect the entire world. At that time, Assur will not only control the ocean militarily, but also commercially. Even the most remote Nibon and Indy will hear these names." In his heart,
Imrik Thumbs up, but Liz finds it difficult to achieve. The War Lord has paid off the undead in the Burial Ship Cemetery, but according to some gossip revealed from the White Tower of Hoth, the Supreme Master believes that in another hundred years, there will be another A group of pirates occupy that ocean whirlpool.
This goal may only be achieved if there is no need to worry about risks to the natural environment.
"Your insights on trade will surely surprise the Assurs." Liz took the record book handed by her assistant and returned it to its original place after finding that the content was verbatim.
"But it's a pity that most people will only treat it as a topic of conversation after dinner and forget about it after drinking afternoon tea." As for the social issues that Imrik metaphors, Liz does not want to touch them. Successful newspapers will always find a suitable one. A place to stay.
Those who are too radical will always be stared at by a group of elite warriors with big swords.
"Next is a point that everyone is more concerned about, about the Vaal Anvil volcano at the end of the Dragonhalberd Mountains."
Imrik was stunned by this question, and turned to look at Randy, hoping to get a reply. Did he just After being out for a while, the volcano temperature dropped again?
But what Liz said next seemed a bit ridiculous.
"According to a professor at Lothern College who did not want to be named, about nine thousand years ago, when Ulthuan was not covered by the magical mist, there was a large-scale eruption on the Vaal Anvil volcano, spewing out The gas height crossed the Annulian Mountains, covering the entire western Ulthuan with volcanic ash along the way, and a large number of lives died due to poisoning.
The professor believed that it was because Caledor lifted the fog magic around the border and allowed the cold air of Naggaroth to contact To Ulthuan, the temperature of the Var Anvil volcano has been increasing repeatedly. According to his speculation, an eruption will occur in another thirty years, and strong winds will sweep across the entire Ulthuan with volcanic ash. Do you agree with this view?"
Seeing Liz say these words seriously, Imric wanted to laugh a little. The volcano where the priest Vaal has been for thousands of years still doesn't understand the professor who dare not reveal his name? I really think of the clergy as fools who can only kneel on the ground and pray.
"Since the name is not revealed, I won't ask too much about who this fool is. Due to the lack of data from ancient times, Caledo's records of many things are indeed very vague, but if it is such a volcanic eruption covering the west, it can at least be traced from I know a little bit from the dragon's oral account. But even the dragon's court has no impression of this matter. The temperature of the volcano is always within a controllable range, and there is no need to worry about the professor who stayed in Lothern." Liz said she understood
. I also feel that there is no logic in this matter, but Asul likes this kind of whimsical news, and the newspaper office cannot resist the temptation of fame.
Turning to another matter of greater concern,
"Many Assur have doubts about your actions in the old world. We praise your achievements in war as being comparable to those of your ancestors, but regarding your actions in the old world, The level of attention is a bit extra caring. Can you tell me some of the reasons for such attention?"
Edgar, who couldn't bear it, slapped Woodrow's thigh suddenly, lowered his voice in his throat, and roared like a beast,
"That's enough! Card. When does Ledo need to explain to outsiders when doing things, and there is no need for other countries to intervene in the actions of the old world. This is the conference hall that belongs to the Dragon Prince, not the basement where you are here to inquire about information!" It is obvious that the veteran regarded this question as a test,
especially It was a test of the legendary dragon horn that was related to the kingdom. He had to use the lowest limit to evaluate the other kingdoms' plans for it. What happened to Imric's father must never happen again.
The two people who were initially relaxed due to the harmonious atmosphere suddenly became nervous. They thought they had said the wrong thing and hurriedly apologized to Edgar. They really did not expect this to happen.
"Sorry, Dragon Prince Edgar, this is our fault. Please forgive me if I am rude."
Imric remained calm, glared at the veteran Edgar, and motioned for him to sit back and stay away. This scares people.
"The situation in the old world... let's put it this way, the world today is more connected than ever before. Usually I prefer to use the butterfly effect to describe it. It doesn't matter if you don't understand the word. The general meaning is that if the human empire is destroyed , occupied by Norsca or Kurgan, Druchi will use countless Assur souls as reward in exchange for Chaos believers helping Malekith. The last war has made Ulthuan understand these Chaos The barbarians are so difficult to deal with.
The current crises are bundled together. If you want to solve them easily, you'd better make some preparations."
