Power and Empire Chapter 1684: In the name of Falcon (2)
The carriage was moving in the dark, and the roadside lights dangled from the window like a phantom. The Duke Putu sat in the carriage with a solemn expression, his eyes were looking at the street outside. It was already dark. Most of the blocks in the port are quiet, and only a few hurried night-goers are still walking on the streets, but in the new port of Atanis, about three kilometers north of the old port, the buildings are very new. Very tall, the golden carriage of the Duke of Putu crosses the ten-mile-long main street of the port and turns into a three-way intersection.
The scene in front of me suddenly lit up, and the whole street was full of people.
"Come here!" The Duke of Putao raised his hand and knocked on the door of the car. The carriage stopped and looked forward. On both sides of the street in the outer area of the port, which had just been renovated, there were taverns with various signs hanging on both sides. Shops, feasting, dazzling people, but the most attractive is the pubs and lofts standing underneath the gorgeously dressed girls, where they show off their beauty and put the deadliest provocative action on every man in the past. ,
"My lord, are you coming over to pick you up tonight?" The coachman turned back respectfully and asked
"No, it's the same as before. Come on at dawn! If I'm not dead yet" Duke Putao shook his head with a wry smile, took the gray wolf fur cloak on the carriage chair and put it on him, and walked out of the car door. , A fragrant wind is coming,
This is the red light district of Port Steinecker in the southwestern province of the Falcon Empire. The door opened, and the Duke wearing a gray fur cape got out of the carriage, and the voices of women boiled everywhere, and the Duke of General set anxiously walked in. One of the richly decorated lofts,
"It is indeed a fascinating place! Unfortunately, as a puppet, you can enjoy it once more! Back to Gangfei, you are not a duke! Or even the status of a prisoner is very difficult to get." The coachman raised his head as soon as the Duke of Putao entered. M's cold gaze paused on the back of the Duke's eastern back, and the corners of his mouth curled in disdain.
He is the Duke’s coachman, but he is also the eyeliner that Gang Fei arranged next to the Duke.
This time, the Duke of Putao was angered by a governor of the Falcon Empire. He was forced to come to the Falcon Empire by the Congolese military and personally apologize to the Falcon Empire. Everyone is waiting to see the Governor of the Falcon Empire. A joke, the same is true of the news from the Falcon Empire. His Majesty Falcon is very angry about this. Believing that the humiliated Duke Putao was the messenger of the empire, he directly rejected the audience of the Duke Putao, and declared that he would continue to develop, and even said that he would move his army south. The non-military affairs department is anxious,
The agreement was finally signed, and the deaths of hundreds of thousands of soldiers were not asked. Just suppressed the fierce domestic reaction to this battle. The Ministry of Military Affairs of Congo and Africa is eagerly waiting for the Falcon Empire to withdraw its troops from the northern border.
As a result, the Falcon Empire suddenly repented, disrupting the pace of the Congolese Ministry of Military Affairs to report to His Majesty the Emperor, and the Congolese were not foreign officials. When he left the Falcon Empire in anger and returned to Gangfei, he had already given a death order to Grand Duke Putao. If you can't get the reception of His Majesty Falcon, you will die in the Falcon Empire!
Duke General suppressed the ecstasy in his heart. At last there was a chance to get rid of Gang Fei's surveillance, and the other side also felt chills, as far as Gang Fei was concerned. It's so worthless
Soon, he got the exact news. The secret location he met was chosen at 116 Port Tanick. After investigating such a location, Duke Butou did not express dissatisfaction, but revealed it. Full of admiration, amazing! Setting such a place as a meeting place, it is estimated that Gang Fei will not have thought of breaking his head,
Because there is the famous red light district of the port, the Grand Duke Butou arrived here ten days ago, of course he was full of ambition in name, looking for a place to vent, and the prosperity in front of him really shocked him. A handful, if it were not confirmed by countless people, it would be hard for him to imagine that this bustling street area several miles long was still a quiet sandy land two months ago.
Here, he learned about a falcon empire he had never known before,
The policies of the empire gave the port areas very free political and economic policies, and even gave them full freedom in the formulation of local laws. While bringing rapid regional expansion and high development, it also brought some people The spiritual emptiness and the depravity of life. For a time, many brand-new docks began to build ships day and night, including military battleships and civilian transport ships, which attracted a large number of foreign workers into the coastal areas. Most of these workers are from the mainland of the empire, the northwest region, and even people from the northern cold regions
The tide of business, before Southwesters fully awake, quickly impacted the minds and horizons of Southwesterners. The countless resources and financial investment in the empire's native land flooded the densely populated southwest like the sea. There is a long coastline, a good seaport, a dense population, and a potential manufacturing industry. This is becoming the foothold of the Falcon Empire’s impact on the entire Europa 6 business circle. This is not the isolated northwest coast. It’s a transit point where the east, west, south and north meet
The merchant fleet is rolling in from the northwest, and the horse convoy rushes from the southwest to all directions day and night,
Under such impact, the port area in the southwest and the road center of Nei 6 are quickly becoming the busiest area in the southwest. This is the red light area of the port of Stanneck. There is nothing to see during the day, but at night, it is illuminated. The light of half of the city is like igniting the clouds above the city
In the middle of the night, it rained suddenly in the sky, and people who were still looking for pleasure walked to both sides to take shelter from the rain. The women in the attic worked harder. Not only could they speak, but they could also pull themselves to see. The men on the Internet, every male who has ever lived, could not escape their harassment, so many men who were not determined enough to be able to melt all the bones quietly disappeared in the next room, but This is not always the case,
There are also a few men in black clothes. They stopped under a loft at a fork in the street.
"This is the place you chose! It's really unique!" One of them took a deep breath, put down the black hood that blocked the rain, and revealed a plump, white face, narrowing his eyes. , I swept across the street with a little surprise, one by one the gorgeous attic full of dozens of red lanterns. Inside, there were laughter of all kinds of men and women. At the entrance of the attic, a dozen exposed Yingying Yanyan. Beautiful figure. Was beckoning in this direction, too obvious, the red light district!
"Your Majesty, this is a complete misunderstanding!" A handsome young man of about 27 or 18 years old said with a dumbfounded expression, "I didn't expect such a big change here. I knew it had become like this. , I don’t dare to arrange the location here!"
"Forget it, at least it's more comfortable than I am in the wilderness!" The fat man patted the water stains on his shoulders casually, and withdrew his gaze from the group of beautiful women in the distance, and said with a bit of teasing. "I don’t say that I was hungry and cold on the border between Congo and Africa. What I see most every day is the wind blowing weeds. Even if I want to have some fun, I mean to accompany the people in Dongting to brag and look at the stars above my head. , Dustellenkai, you don’t lack anything here! Not to mention self-sufficiency, there is still such a place to enjoy, if you don’t know it beforehand. I really can’t believe it will be outside the port of the Imperial Navy District!"
"My lord, I usually stay on the side of the military port! I basically never set foot in these chaotic outer areas, that's why such a deviation occurs!" Dusterenkai quickly looked ugly. In fact, it took him less than half a month for the main navy to return to the naval port in the southwest from Caseyley Island. This is the first time he has set foot in such a place.
Received an order from His Majesty Falcon. After learning that he needed to find a secret meeting place in the port, he immediately thought of this place, absolutely no one would have thought of it. Someone will arrange the meeting place in the port area where people come and go, this is a new area expanded from the port area of the southwest military port of Stani,
Follow the outline of the original port, and enter an inwardly curved area toward the north. The outside is sparkling water, and the inside is a few attics. The scenery is excellent. This place was previously controlled by the local nobles as a family exclusive. The small port and the large vacant land are not open.
However, since the Southwest came into the Empire, the commercial wave from the direction of Dahaicheng quickly hit the entire southwest coastal area. The geographical advantage of Steinecker was only an old port used by the navy, and it became insufficient at this time. The military port Although it has a sufficient area, it is mainly targeted at warships with huge tonnage, and merchant ships do not have the right to enter the military port.
A large number of merchant ships that need to be docked can only be moored in rows outside the port, making the sea seem crowded,
In order to solve this problem,
The Imperial Admiralty stationed in the southwest coast, applied to His Majesty Falcon at the end of June, requesting the establishment of a commercial area and a commercial port in the outer area of the Steinecker Naval Port, the center of gravity on the southwest coast, mainly for berthing merchant fleets. Maintain the daily supplies in and out of the military port,
The construction of these areas is completely supported by private investment.
If this pilot is successful, Fatty is also considering it, and it can be promoted to other military ports. According to Dusterenkai, the daily maintenance of naval battleships is very expensive, and new battleships will be added every year. This is for the empire’s finances. A heavy burden. In that case, why can’t the navy’s influence in the coastal areas be used to drag the construction of the entire port area? This can not only reduce the burden on the empire’s finances, but also drive the economy of the coastal areas for the empire Increasing fiscal revenue, so that the southwest coast that was once ravaged by the Congolese Navy will be prosperous.
For this suggestion, the fat man signed and agreed, but the scale in front of him was completely unexpected. The first time he set foot here, he looked at the continuous lights in front of him, and even had an illusion. It’s unimaginable that this row of attics was a barren sandy land a month ago.
Du Stellenkai looked at the fat man’s blue face, and quickly explained, "The navy fleet is docked here. There are a lot of sailors, and there are thousands of sailors from merchant fleets all over the world. They go back and forth every day. The caravans and the convoys that travel to and from 6 places are too numerous to count. The men have been holding back in this area for a long time, and their tempers are very bad. If there is no place to vent, the subordinates are worried that there will be problems. It is precisely because of this. I would agree to the establishment of such an area in the port extension area, but I did not expect it to be expanded to such an extent in just one month. It is simply..."
"It's a miracle! Isn't it?"
The fat man glared at his Secretary of the Navy. "Such a large red-light area appears in a place ten miles away from the Navy’s military headquarters. If you use a look-out mirror, thousands of warbirds will turn around in front of your eyes. It’s pleasing! My Navy Minister, don’t tell me, you can’t see all of this from the top office of the Admiralty Building! Who is fooling around!"
"Your Majesty, in fact, this is just a kind of equipment needed by the military port." Dusterenkai's face flushed with an aggrieved face. Bite the scalp and boldly say
"Equipment?" The fat man was shocked. Women are also military equipment!
Du Stellenkai said, "Your Majesty, soldiers are also humans, and they also have normal needs for military affairs. This kind of demand is unavoidable. Fortunately, the 6th Army said that in the areas of war and chaos, most of the refugees are everywhere, for money. , For food. Women who sell themselves for life are not counted. There are voluntary and forced. As long as they are willing to spend money, there will be no less women, even if they are good-looking noble women. There are a few, but the sailors of the naval fleet are different. The fleet cruises on the lonely sea at will. That is to say back and forth for more than half a month. If there is a transportation task, running back and forth between two large six, floating on the sea for a month is also A normal thing. A normal man will be in a hurry, let alone a soldier with a higher energy than an ordinary person. This is why the port has the most red light districts! A port without a red light district, no one will stop at it! Not to mention making the local prosperous. Get up! As the commander of the Imperial Navy fleet. The Minister of the Admiralty, although he knows that your Majesty may not like to listen, I still have to say something fair for the tens of thousands of Imperial Navy!"
"It seems that you are really mature!"
The fat man looked down with his head down. But Dusterenkai, with a resolute look, unexpectedly slowly disappeared from his anger, and took a deep breath. “In fact, the Ministry of Supervision has long reported that there is a red light zone in the Navy Port, and many captain’s officers. They are all regulars of these red light districts, who have what they want and what they need. There are tens of thousands of yelling men. If they don’t have a point, it’s a weird thing if they don’t fry the pan! As the Minister of the Navy, it is good to be able to take care of his subordinates, but The combat effectiveness of the fleet must be guaranteed. If that day, I heard a problem with a fleet officer because of this kind of thing, he would certainly die, and your Dusterenkai’s head would definitely hang together!"
"Yes, my subordinates understand!" Dustrum Khai was sweaty and nodded quickly, knowing that he had escaped a fateful decision,
"Lead the way ahead! I don't know what you think about 116 Port Tannick, this address!" The fat man snorted, waved his hand, and put on his hood again.
In the distance, a beautiful girl in a flower petals dress and a migratory dress leaned alone in a corner. Her eyes just saw the fat man's hooded hand, and a shiny ring gleamed from her blue pupils. Flashed by, almost didn't make her eyes open to the limit,
What a big ruby!
The girl opened her mouth slightly, her eyes fixed on her fingers. Although it was only a faint light from the fork, the red luster of an expensive gem could be clearly seen even if she was a dozen meters away. She was born in a noble family, although the family is in the southwest. Withered in chaos, but her own vision is definitely not low. She has noticed these weird people a long time ago. The fat man in the middle should be the core inside, and his gestures all have a noble taste. The other people should be all. Is a guard
She is not a real warbler, but the kind of person who is mixed in the warbler and takes the opportunity to do some tricks,
This kind of thing similar to fairy jumping is very common on this street. There are always people who like to be cheap, and this girl is very confident in her looks, although she is only 14 or 15 years old, but He was born a noble, with good temperament, a little makeup, and even a different kind of charm, which made many veterans be excited. It is a pity that a few people on the opposite side stood there for more than ten minutes, especially the fat man, It’s as if I’m a little bit blind, I don’t seem to be able to see myself at all when I pose several attractive poses,
In her eyes, this fat man is a big fat sheep, she can’t just let go. On this street, besides herself, there are other people staring here, at least there are three who passed by just now, just seeing herself Standing here, without making a move for a while, everyone’s eyes are sharp
When such a bright fat sheep appears, within a few minutes, the whole street will know,
There are too many people like this. They are the children of aristocratic elites, or they are very arrogant and want to know him all over the street, or they are shy and shy like the silly fat guy in front of them. Even if you take a step forward, you will feel blushing, and such people are the best. Such people are often born of high-ranking nobles. For the sake of face, they dare not say anything even if they lose something. The girl can feel that the whole street has the least. More than a dozen eyes are moving with these people, no one is moving, because there are no interviewers yet
"This little brother, do you need the most refreshing service, the price is absolutely fair, and you are guaranteed to have endless aftertaste!"
Finally someone couldn’t help it. It was a gorgeous-looking woman, dressed in a close-fitting leather hunting suit, with tall legs, from one end of the street, twisting a thin waist that seemed to be broken at any time. ~IndoMTL.com~ leaned forward with two dimples that were not losing money, a pair of watery eyes, at the fat man in the middle threw a wink that he believed to be the most charming,
"Asshole, it's Angie Oluo, this bitch!"
The girl's eyes clenched her fists and her pretty eyes were filled with hatred. Angie Oluo is the most famous master in this street. Not only is she coquettish, but also willing to sacrifice. Generally, as long as she takes a shot, few men can resist.
Behind this woman is said to be a very terrifying force. Unlike herself, she is reluctant to use her body as a bait, and there is not much to rely on.
Just as everyone looked towards Angie Oluo towards the goal, and the silly fat man seemed to flash an interesting expression that a graceful figure suddenly stood in front of the fat man,
"Angelo, go away." The speaker was an extremely tall woman with a long purple drape over her shoulders, with a gentle and pleasant voice, but her voice was cold. "Who can provoke, and who doesn't Able to provoke, are your eyes blind?"
"Miss Feline, you...Why are you here!" Angie Oluo trembled slightly, and she had a charming expression just now, turning into a trace of fear (to be continued...)
