These horse-drawn carriages are not arbitrarily capable of driving and carrying people. It has a non-governmental organization-the Horse-drawn Carriage Association, which specializes in the management of the horse-drawn carriages in the Dionian Alliance. Only the driving technology and horse-drawn carriage equipment are passed. In order to obtain the qualifications for operation, the patrol team will come to the door once the private passenger is found.
Furthermore, Dionia also promulgated a special bill on the condition of vehicles driving on the boulevard. It is said that it came from Davers’s proposal that ‘any vehicle must drive on the right on the boulevard. In this way, the passing vehicles do not interfere with each other, not only the probability of accidents on the avenue is reduced, but the speed of the carriage is naturally increased.
Of course, Nick Stratus and the others will not go to the details behind the carriage, they enjoy the speed of the carriage.
After an hour, the carriage entered the Krugoli River swamp area. No, it has now been renamed as Cruccoli River Plain. After more than two years of hard work, the Dionians successfully transformed this area. They built dams on the low beaches of the Krugoli River, dug ditches, drained and filled the soil, dried and burned... the original fishy The wet, dirty, snake-and-worm-infested swamp has been developed into fertile, high-yield farmland, even the senators of the Senate feel greedy.
Davers stood out against the crowd, fulfilled his original promise, and distributed part of the land here to the free people who participated in this long project. They also almost smoothly became the preparations for Dionia because of this feat. citizen.
Someone in the Senate once proposed to build a small city on this land.
This claim was strongly opposed by the then chief of Crimea Scombras. His reason was: Crimea spent manpower and material resources to support the transformation of this swamp, Crimea ——The construction of Castellon Avenue also enables Crimea to manage this newly-emerging small plain......
At his insistence, the Cruccoli Plain was placed under the jurisdiction of Crimea, which made the strength of Crimea, which was originally a small city, suddenly jumped to the forefront of the Dionian League cities. As a result, some native people in Crimea have consciously improved their status. If they want to get a share of the land in the Krugoli Plain, the Senate will of course not allow them to mess around. This has also become a dispute among the Crimea people. One of the reasons.
Here is also tracts of farmland, but unlike the Croton Plains, the newly developed land is still overgrown with weeds. Under the blessing of the goddess of spring, Parsephone, it is full of colorful Wild flowers make this land more colorful. In the foggy distance, there is a village faintly, and the faint smoke can be seen. The sound of children's play, parents' scolding, and **** and dog barking are introduced to the ears from time to time, a scene full of vitality...
Lykasus, who had been watching the world outside through the window of the wagon, suddenly focused his eyes on the nearby shepherds who were driving a large herd of cattle and sheep to drink by the river. Their attire was different from that of the Greeks. , But it made Lycasus so familiar.
"That's a Bruti!" Lycasus exclaimed with the tingling pain deep in his memory. When he was a child, he had seen the Bruti burn, slaughter and looted on the Croton Plains, so his memory is still fresh.
Nick Stratus also leaned to the window and looked out in surprise.
"It’s nothing strange. Not only do the Bruti people live in the mountains to the west, they also live in other places in the Dionian League, even Asproustu. There are also the Bruti people who descended from the upper reaches of the Neto River to settle down, and here-the Krukoli Plain is the place with the most Bruti people besides the Bruti Mountains. It is said that there are several tribes." Love Fiart said contentedly.
Lykasus stared at the free-spoken Bruti shepherds by the river in a daze, and couldn't tell what it was like. For the young people in Crotone, the Bruti were the "nightmare" their parents used to make them obedient and frighten them when they were young, but they are now citizens conquered by Dionia.
"I heard that there will always be some fighting in the Bruti area in the past few years." Nick Stratus said casually.
"There is no battle, it is just some small conflicts between the various tribes of Bruti because of the land. The chief executive of Cosenza easily helped them resolve it." Aifiart defended.
Nick Stratus sneered twice, and the cabin returned to coldness again.
In this small space, Crotones and Dionians don’t seem to get along easily.
Before noon, the carriage entered the city of Castellon. The coachman needs to rest the tired horses for a period of time to recover their strength, and at the same time feed them with grass and water, so the passengers have an hour to rest.
Nick Stratus is discussing with Stasipus whether to hire a carriage again and send them to Turei, because he can’t stand the Dionian citizen Efiart from his bones. An inexplicable sense of pride exuded.
Cardias watched the three Crotone rush into the carriage, he shook his head helplessly, turned and walked towards the Christia restaurant not far away.
Fortunately, there are still vacant seats in the restaurant. As soon as he sat down, he saw Effiart, who was in the same car, also entered the restaurant with his fiancée. After he greeted the two of them, he started to order.
Two years ago, the blacksmith of Turri invented the pan (after countless experiments at the tip of Davers), the Kristia restaurant soon launched a series of olive oil Fried food quickly swept the entire Dionian League.
Cardias ordered a fried cod and two honey bread. Before long, the golden cod meat and fragrant bread were served on the table. He was hungry and couldn’t wait to grab the warm bread and took a big bite. The crispy and soft bread was mixed with the sweetness of honey. The fragrance stimulated his taste buds and opened his appetite.
He hurriedly picked up the knife, cut a piece of fish, picked it up with a fork, and put it in his mouth...
Cardias three times and five divided by two, quickly finished lunch, stroking his bulging belly with satisfaction, then wiped the tableware clean, set it out, and bowed solemnly. It is said that this set of tableware was invented by Davors, the Archon of Dionia, and was inspired by Hades. Cardias is convinced of this, isn't that small iron fork with only two teeth is Hades's double fork!
The waiter took down the plate, and Cardias ordered another glass of wine, tasting tea while listening to other diners chatting. Cardias, who has traveled to the Dionian League many times, can hear that most of the diners in this restaurant are natives of Castellon. Although the Greek pronunciation of each Greek city-state is more or less different, Dai The pronunciation of the Onyas is undoubtedly the most unique. Since they have included Lucaria, Bruti, Thracians, etc., into the alliance without discrimination, and became Dionian citizens, their respective cultures have been constantly changing. In the collision and conflict, even the accent of the speech has changed a lot, and a few unfamiliar words from Lucaria or Bruti pop up from time to time. This is the noble Crotone. People and Tarantums regarded it as the basis for the "barbaric" of the Dionians.
Cardias does not discriminate like this.
Most of what these Castellon people talk about has nothing to do with the city of Castellon where they live, but about their neighbor-Tury: What is the upcoming marriage festival celebration? ... How beautiful is Agnes, the second wife of Dionian Archon Daves! ... How did Daves meet the needs of two beautiful wives? …The Dionian Medical Forum will be held in Turíy. Who are the doctors of Castellon attending? ...Wait
Some people talked mysteriously: According to rumors, Dionia is about to start building the first stone bridge...
Some people talked excitedly: The third arena newly built in Turri will be dedicated to football matches...
Some people brag about how spectacular the horse racing celebration they saw when they went to the Cosenza Plateau last fall...
Some people will refute: Lukaria’s sheep fight is more exciting...
More people will say in unison: The better-looking and more exciting are undoubtedly the South Italy Rugby game and the Dionia football game...
When diners talked about their city-states, they were more complaining, and some even claimed: It’s better to let Castellon become part of the Dionian League instead of being independent of Dionian as he is now. Outside of the alliance, although it is more free, it cannot get more benefits of the Dionian alliance. The citizens of Castellon also want to own more land...
Not only did no one come out to refute his extraordinary remarks, but it was recognized by a few diners.
The influence of Dionia in Great Greece is getting bigger and bigger! Cardias thought with a sigh. He estimated the time, left the restaurant, and walked towards the cart. By the carriage he was riding in, he saw three Crotones dejected.
It turns out that all the carriages in the carriages have been hired, and many of Castro’s unmarried couples and people want to go to Turei to participate in the marriage festival of the Temple of Hera.
So, there are still six people on the same road, speechless all the way.
After three hours of bumps, the carriage finally stopped.
"It's the station." The coachman shouted.
Lycasus looked out and saw crowded people, towering outposts and long wooden bridges.
"This...should not have arrived in Turriy yet?" Lycasus said puzzledly.
"This has arrived outside the southern city of Turriy. Horse-drawn carriages are not allowed to cross the bridge, otherwise it will cause congestion. The medical school you are going to is in the Dionian Academy not far behind the bridge... "Although it is awkward to get along with these Crotones, as a Dionian citizen, Efiart has the consciousness of being a master. After saying these words, he took his fiancée by the hand, got out of the carriage, and followed the flow of people to the Nancheng checkpoint.
