Heart of Empire Chapter 417: Long live the lord
The people in Ghost Knife Port are very excited for no other reason. They knew two days ago that the legendary Governor of Dire Wolf who unified Schindler and defeated the demon army, their real lord, today Coming to Ghost Knife Port!
Two days ago, bulletin boards and bulletin boards throughout the city were covered with this message. The security guards walked in the streets and alleys, mobilizing the citizens to participate in this grand ceremony, lined up along the Ximen Avenue, and lined up along the road to welcome the arrival of the lord.
The citizens are very interested.
The population structure of Ghost Knife Port is very different from most other cities. In this port city built from a barren land, the first residents were slaves.
Dain's good pirate brother, Dodoro, brought him a lot of slaves ship after ship. After all, the slaves stolen by pirates are indeed a very difficult 'product' to sell, not as easy to sell as ordinary goods. It's not easy to meet a guy like Dane who doesn't care about meat and vegetables, so why don't we try to attract people to him?
In a year's time, this kid brought at least 5,000 slaves to Ghost Knife Port.
I have to say that Dodoro is indeed a born pirate. Ordinary people dare to be so crazy at sea. They probably have already fed the fish. Few can be like him, relying on selling slaves to Dai. Well, where is the slave ship so easy to snatch?
However, in the past almost a year, no slave ship has come over. On the one hand, the demand for the slave population in Ghost Knife Port is close to saturation; 'Big thing' went.
It's been a long time since there's been any news about this kid, and Dane doesn't know how he is doing now.
Perhaps, he was caught and hanged by the navy?
Of course, this is just Dane's malicious guess.
These slaves transported to Ghost Knife Port, under the special conditions of Ghost Knife Port, have the right to exchange for freedom through labor. Most of the slaves, as long as they are a little diligent, can basically redeem their slave contracts within six months to a year and become an official resident. Generally speaking, most of those who can do this stay in Ghost Knife Port.
After all, this is a place where you can live and work in peace and contentment, and even have many opportunities to make a fortune.
Half of the population of Ghost Knife Port was transformed from these slaves.
As for the remaining half, they are all immigrants. They either escaped here temporarily because of the war, or stayed here for a short time because of business, but without exception, they were attracted by this city full of opportunities. , The environment is quite friendly and the city is attracted, so I have lived here for a long time.
Ghost knife port is developing very fast. Then the geographical advantages, as well as the support of Dane's forces, the rich products of Auriana, and the temptation of Heijing, gradually, Ghost Knife Port has become the south of Schindler, and even the entire eastern part of the continent. An important transit port on the southern ocean.
Nowadays, Qianfan is docking here, and the daily cargo throughput is already quite large.
Among them, the role of the Shire United Chamber of Commerce cannot be ignored. The Chamber of Commerce, an ally of Dane, quite favors the port of Ghost Knife Port, so that they don't have to deal with officials in Port Talens or some ports in the more prosperous Pudley Kingdom. Human society is not friendly to the Shire people. Strict exploitation and taxation have greatly reduced the profits of the Shire people's business.
However, there are no such bad things in Ghost Knife Port. Tommy has always been adhering to the greatest preferential conditions for merchants who do business from Ghost Knife Port. Coupled with the geographical advantages and product advantages of Ghost Knife Port itself, many Shire merchants are willing to change their business routes and transit here.
Many people have made a lot of money because of it.
Not only the Shire people, but also some other merchants also recognized this important business opportunity and were willing to dock here.
Prosperous business drives the development of many industries. In addition, Tommy, as the consul, did not ignore the industrial construction of Ghost Knife Port itself at all. A large number of workshops were established in this port city, and high-quality stone was mined and processed into various raw materials. ;Other products and raw materials are transported to Ghost Knife Port, and can also be processed through the workshop here and then transported away.
In this way, it would be no wonder if Ghost Knife Port could not develop.
Moreover, a few months ago, Ghost Knife Port encountered a rare opportunity from the industrial relocation of Shawan Port.
That was last December, winter time.
At that time, Shahaiwan Port was facing the pressure of Kangli's army, and Verina made a decisive decision to rush to transport a large number of people and some important materials from Shahaiwan Port out of the port.
Those people and materials cannot always be floating on the sea, they must have a place to stay.
And Comilla Island and Ghost Knife Port are obviously good places to stay.
Tommy seized this good opportunity, took advantage of the influx of a lot of money and people, and quickly issued a series of government orders, hoping to take this opportunity to raise the urban development level of Ghost Knife Port to a higher level~ IndoMTL.com ~ He did it.
Although many people and materials returned to Shawan Port after the war, Tommy has benefited a lot from just staying in the port for a month.
What's more, there are quite a few people who simply plan to stay in Ghost Knife Port. After all, anyone with a little foresight can easily see that this is a place with great potential for development.
After the war, the reconstruction of Schindler required a large influx of resources, and Ghost Knife Port, as a transit point, also benefited a lot.
The combination of the right time and place and the right people have created the prosperous present of this city.
So, how can people forget the most fundamental great lord who brought all this?
The slaves thanked the lord for bringing new hope to their desperate life; the new immigrant population also thanked Dane for bringing them a chance to make a fortune.
Additionally, during the war, Dane's brilliant victories after another had a very strong legendary color in themselves.
People are eager to take a good look at what this legendary lord looks like.
Thus, thousands of people braved the rain and waited eagerly for the Lord Lord's arrival on the Ximen Avenue of Ghost Knife Port.
Riding a strong white warg, wearing a fine chain mail, with a scarlet cloak fluttering on the back with the wind and rain, walking on the avenue, just like Dane who is so strong that he can be called a stalwart, with a serious and unsmiling face, Greatly satisfied the wishes of the citizens
This is really a charming lord worth following!
The shout of "Long live the lord" came spontaneously, and then turned into a mountain shout and a tsunami! u
