Extraordinary Mechanical City

Chapter 35: Black Gold Chamber of Commerce

     This world is a bit like a single-player Warcraft game in the previous life. Treasure hunting, monster killing, mining, exploring relics... Before all the fog is explored, no one knows what secrets the continent has and how broad it is.

   The mist is full of endless unknowns.

   Humans call this barren black land under their feet [Ice Ridge Wasteland].

  Ice Ridge Wasteland is very large, and the proven area is larger than the total land area of ​​the earth in the previous life.

   Countless steam machine cities are moving on the ice ridge wasteland, exploring, preying, treasure hunting, competing for resources... the map is also being updated anytime and anywhere.

   Mankind is divided into two empires, the Omar Empire is north, and the Sid Empire is south.

   The two empires also often had local frictions due to the competition for large mineral deposits, but there were very few large-scale wars.

   After all, the wasteland is huge, and the areas that can be explored are endless... The greatest enemy of mankind is the wasteland monster in the mist, not the civil war.

   The Omar Empire is divided into seventy-two administrative provinces. The lord of each administrative province is a high-ranking noble of hereditary dukes, and possesses a main machine city of the Lord-level Beamon and countless secondary machine cities.

   The hereditary aristocracy system resulted in most of the resources being concentrated in the hands of the old aristocrats, the class has been solidified, and the seventy-two grand ducal families have not changed much after hundreds of years.

   The nobles have lost their adventurous spirit, and they can get very nourished by guarding the foundation inherited by their ancestors.

   The road from the civilian class to the upper class has almost been blocked. The offspring of the civilians are doomed to be exploited and oppressed as soon as they are born.

  The only hope is to become a waste hunter and go to the wasteland to hunt for treasure. Like Baron Morin, if you can find amazing treasures, you can exchange some meat residues from the mouths of high-class nobles in exchange for a small lower-class noble title.

  The social contradictions are getting bigger and bigger, and the progress of the Omar Empire in exploring the unknown mist zone is getting slower and slower. These veteran aristocrats have lost the hardworking and enterprising heart of their ancestors, and have gradually become a stumbling block to the progress of civilization.

   And Spuglin XV is the current Emperor Omar.

   This ambitious emperor intends to carry out a "reform".

For example, he intends to lower the price of potions monopolized by the veteran aristocrats, so that everyone can advance to the extraordinary; he also intends to open the Royal Academy to civilians and establish more basic academies so that all civilians in the empire can receive basic knowledge for free Of learning...

   The price of potions has been lowered, and more civilians can advance to high-level transcendence, and can explore more and more dangerous foggy areas, and human civilization will make great strides...

And all the people learn knowledge, so that a large number of civilian geniuses can be found from the sea, there will be more and more potions, scientists, and polymaths, the bottleneck that restricts human progress will also be broken, and the empire will become stronger and stronger. ..

   But resistance can be imagined.

   Gene potions are the most valuable business in this world. They are the "necessities" for human beings to survive in this world. Without advanced and extraordinary, it would be difficult for human beings to survive in this harsh climate.

   But ninety-nine percent of the potion sales industry on the market is monopolized by the nobles. This is also the best way for the people at the top of the pyramid to exploit the bottom people for hundreds of years.

   Killing this golden egg chicken is tantamount to weaning most of the "milk" of the old nobles.

   Why is the empire strong and me? What does human progress do to me?

   Why are nobles expensive?

   If there are not hundreds of thousands of untouchables in the aristocratic territory stepping on them, why should they be superior?

   Everyone can advance to the ordinary, and they can enter the academy to learn knowledge. Isn't this infringing on the rights of their nobles?

   If things go on like this, where is the difference between aristocrats and common people?

   Fight talent and hard work?

  Hehe...Go **** talent!

  I was born a nobleman. If he inherits his family business, he will be rich and wealthy. Why do you have to fight on the same starting line with a group of untouchables?

   Therefore, after the reform, the upper echelon of the Omar Empire was divided into two factions. The minority "renovators" who supported the emperor's reforms; and the majority of "conservatives" who secretly tried to maintain the status quo.

   The eldest princess Ymir is the royal family who supports his brother Spuglin's XV reform plan with the toughest attitude!

   Now that the emperor's health is deteriorating, there is a high probability that he will not live for a few years.

   And the eldest princess Yumir has been hailed as the most talented royal family of the Spuglin family for hundreds of years. Her prestige in the country is even higher than that of other princes!

   If there is no accident, there is a high chance that Spuglin XV will pass the throne to his sister Yumir, not the ineffective princes!

   And the conspiracy to assassinate Ymir this time was actually a collision between the Queen and the “conservatives” who represented the interests of the old nobles.

   Even Spuglin XV’s body is aging prematurely, and there are shadows of those guys' conspiracy.

  ......

   The steam train ran smoothly over the wasteland.

   Soon after Ren and Yumir used the communication radio.

   tuk, tuk, tuk!

   There was a knock on the door.

   "President."

   "Go in."

   In a car at the head of the train, a man with the appearance of a housekeeper knocked on the door and walked in.

   The cabin is extremely warm, and the large room illuminated by the exquisite crystal chandeliers is bright.

   The decoration in the room is very luxurious, classical wooden furniture, exquisite Niyer's handmade cashmere carpet, and the oil painting ornaments by the master, even the wine vessels on the table are made of sterling silver, which is full of extravagance.

   As if this is not a carriage, but a palace.

   There is only one person in the house.

   This is a beautiful woman in a high-slit lace cheongsam.

   At this moment, she was lying lazily on the chair, looking at the thick stack of books. With her feet crossed on the edge of the table, the cheongsam slashed to the base of her legs gave her beautiful slender legs unobstructed.

   "President Canossa, someone borrowed the car's communication station to send ten encrypted messages."

   Even if he raised his head, he could see the boundless spring scenery. After entering the house, the housekeeper kept his head down the whole time, as if there was a kind of fear from the bottom of his heart that made him afraid to look directly.

   If there are business people here, you can definitely recognize this charming woman as the vice president of the legendary [Black Gold Chamber of Commerce], Canossa J. Clofele.

   This is the name of a formidable and huge money empire.

   Almost all the businesses of the high-ranking nobles of the two empires have dealings with this "Black Gold Chamber of Commerce".

   And the "Thorn Bird Chamber of Commerce" to which this train belongs is one of the largest chambers of commerce in the southern provinces of Omar, which is also an inconspicuous small chamber of commerce under the "Black Gold Chamber of Commerce".

   heard this,

   The beautiful woman in cheongsam did not raise her eyebrows, and asked faintly: "Did you crack it?"

   The butler shook his head and said: "It's impossible for a short time. Looking at her skillful encryption method, it's a bit like an intelligence informant from the Omar Royal Intelligence Group'Black Water Terrace'."

"Oh."

   Cheongsam beautiful woman: "Then you don't need to worry about it. Now there is a big turmoil in the Omar Royal House, and the political situation is very sensitive...No matter which side of the person who is calling, we don't get involved."

   "Yes, chairman."

   The butler nodded and said: "President, you said that the secret message from the headquarters wants to confirm whether the news of the assassination of Her Royal Highness Princess is accurate, so that we can make a follow-up plan..."

   The cheongsam lady heard the news, her charming face was a little moved.

   "Just treat her as dead."

She added: "It doesn't matter if it's true or not. Now that Baron Askerpa has been labeled as a rebellion, the biggest backing of the'renovationist' is gone. Without military power, there is no right to speak. No one will be able to turn the tide anymore."

   The news channels of the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce are all over the world, which let her know more about the matter. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

   After a pause, she said again: "Forcibly forced General Baron to rebel, Queen Omar made this move very well. Even if the eldest princess is not dead, the situation in the imperial capital will not be better."

   A businessman broke through the situation of the upper echelons of the Omar clan in a few words, and it was very thorough.

   If people who understand politics are here, they will definitely drop their jaws.

   "That..."

  The butler said again: "My guild leader, General Baron took away part of the most elite mechanic legion in the empire this time, what about the supply agreement we signed with them before...?"

   The beautiful woman in cheongsam looked disapproving, and said: "Business as usual, according to the contract. Anyway, there are investments on both sides, no matter who sits on the throne, it will not have much impact on our chamber of commerce."

   After a pause, she seemed to have lost interest in this matter, and then asked: "By the way, how is the situation in'Ember Forest'?"

The butler sternly said: "The outer mines over there have been preliminarily explored. It is a top rich mine. The reserves of'high coal' in the shallow layer will be very large. However, the savage tribe over there is very troublesome and has not been resolved yet. Good way..."

   The beautiful woman in cheongsam asked again: "Where is the temple?"

Steward: "In the depths of the forest, it is confirmed that there should be a temple of one of the seventy-two gods and knights of the'Black Emperor'. However, there are savages and priests stationed there. Unless a large force is forcibly annihilated, it is impossible to approach ."

   The beauty of the cheongsam woman was shining in her eyes, and said: "Then spread the news and attract more waste hunters to open up wasteland. The heritage of the ruins, our Chamber of Commerce must get it!"

   "I see, Chairman. I will do it now..."

   The butler bowed lower and lower and turned to go out.
