Power and Empire Chapter 558: The Battle of Winter Veil (9)
558 Winter Veil Battle (9)
Moyungang is a natural inward-curved port in the northwestern part of Salander. In the age when the shipping was not prosperous, it was just a small fishing village with less than a hundred people. The old small fishing village became busy all at once,
The morning sun sprinkled down from the thin clouds, covering the earth with a faint golden layer. The village is surrounded by rolling mountains,
There is a thin mist floating in the mountains. The mist drifts with the wind. It rises and falls from time to time along the valley, and finally disappears in the soft light of the morning light.
From the middle of the port through the village, it stretches straight into the fields, through the large newly reclaimed fields on both sides, and then winds up the mountains and disappears in the middle of the mountains.
Although it is still morning, there are already a lot of pedestrians on the mountain road, and many horse-drawn carriages are busy. From a distance, hundreds of small stone houses built with cliffs and gravel are scattered. Along the coast,
Before a hundred-meter-long arc-shaped coast on the inner bend, more than a dozen merchant ships are already docking, and their brown wooden bottoms are eroded by the sea to become pale white.
The huge hull undulates up and down with 1ang, big and small black spots are busy between hull and pier, the carriage with cargo is constantly running back and forth on the road, and the whip raised by the coachman shook crisply. The whole town is waking up in this rush
The fat man swept his eyes roughly, and now that the dozens of merchant ships docked at the pier were flying the flag of Vicia, and occasionally the flags of the Kingdom of Rudd and the Kingdom of Swadian could be seen hanging in the harbor. In the southeast corner, there is a ship with a flattened tail tip and a flat middle, which is the unique "Ye Zhou" of the Doroks
Speaking of a boat, it is actually like an enlarged shuttle. It is said that this kind of shuttle-type merchant ship has the best speed among all merchant ships, but the cargo cabin is a bit smaller, and it can only carry about 3 tons at a time. Goods,
The fleet turned into a side corner of Moyun Harbor, and slowly slowed down in front of a pier made of white stones, and finally slid into the pier with the habit of a sea boat. After the sea level receded rapidly, a row was neat 'S hoist appeared in front of us,
Fatty sees that there are already unloading workers waiting there, and seeing such a huge merchant fleet entering the port, there was a burst of cheers, like something happy happened to it
"What's going on?" The fat man looked at the enthusiastic dockers below, and couldn't help feeling a little sleepy.
"My lord, these are all workers under the business alliance" Socutus Delan came up from behind with a light smile on his lips, and explained to the fat man, "Because of their permanent residence abroad, the working hours of these workers are based on rotation. In the implementation of the system, they only need to complete a certain amount of unloading to get extra vacation or rewards"
Each worker unloads the goods for about a day, and he can get a day's vacation time." Socutus Delan said in a low voice respectfully, "Like our large cargo ship this time, it is enough for them to complete the quantity for half a month. , Able to complete such a quantity at one time, no wonder they will shout happily"
"Oh, rotation system?" The fat man's gaze flashed, and he looked at Socutus Delan in surprise. In this era, how could the word rotation system appear?
"Have you forgotten that my lord, when I reported to you an incident of passive sabotage by offshore workers, I heard an adult suggest this method casually. At that time, the lord was commanding a battle against the Swadians for hegemony in the north. If you dare to disturb an adult with such a small matter, you can only implement this method first without getting permission.
Sokutos Delan trembled, her face unnaturally said, "Who knows that the workers on the sea off Dylans will become more enthusiastic and active. Not only is there no more trouble, but also Few workers have proposed to use work breaks in exchange for generous salaries. This method has been temporarily implemented in all overseas terminals.
"It was the subordinate who plagiarized the wisdom of the adults, and I would like to ask the adults to punish them." Socutus Delan's pretty body knelt down in front of the fat man, please be guilty
"You have done a good job. As a superior, the necessary compassion can make her more wise." Fatty's eyes flickered, and he looked at Socutus Delan solemnly for a while before continuing.
"Do you know why I chose you as the thirteenth deacon of the most powerful business alliance?
Fatty said, "It’s not that there are no other suitable candidates, such as the former president of the alliance, Steuhan, and Lidarcus, who is good at housekeeping, and the twelve deacons of the business alliance. They all have rich business experience. And extraordinary ability, but I have chosen you as the master of everything?"
"My subordinates don't know?"
Socutus Delan shook her head, her face sèmí bowed her head in response. This is also the biggest doubt in her heart. If she talks about her background and talent, she is not counted among the many fat nv people. ,
For example, the nv guy named Mona Qing in front of me, although he has only been with him for a few days, he can feel that this is a brilliant and extraordinary beauty. In terms of appearance, he is even more top-notch. Don’t Speaking of men, even nv people will be attracted by it involuntarily. The name of the most beautiful nv in the west is enough to satisfy the vanity of any man
It can be seen that in the hearts of adults, this nv person occupies a very important place, and it may even be the real grand duchess in the future, and such nv people with fame and identity, as well as those of the Southern Dylans family nv, the nv of the Northern Jones family,
These are all families that announced their marriage through formal procedures, and at best, I can only be regarded as a secret lover, and the identity gap with the other party is not even a little bit.
But the fat guy has so much trust in the economic lifeline of Vicia, the largest business organization in Big Six, and the deep affection in it makes Socutus Delan feel a kind of difficulty every time he thinks about it. The calm jī moved in my heart, my heart is as hot as a rolling flame
It turns out that, in the eyes of adults, I still have a little use for Socutus Delan who is complacent. For this, it is worth it to be broken into pieces.
"Remember how I met you?"
The fat man's right hand gently lifted Socutus Delan's white chin, and his eyes gently stared at the beautiful face in front of him, flashing a trace of the memory of God,
The corner of the mouth whispered with a smile, "I will always remember the nv boy who was trembling in the business alliance because he was hiding from debts. Your stubbornness at the time was the place that moved me the most. Even if everyone was treated as a lunatic, you must do everything. Try your best"
"My lord, you mean..."
Hearing the fat man talk about the ugly things of the year, Socutus Delan was stunned for a moment, then both cheeks were full of blushes, and he seemed to touch something in his heart, looking at the fat man in a daze,
"That's why I chose you." The fat man nodded, retracted the hand with Socutus Delan's body fragrance, bent down and whispered in the ear of the half-kneeling Socutus Delan.
"Only you who have ever suffered from merchants know how many terrible and serious disasters will be brought to families like you once those wealthy businessmen with certain economic strength lose their most basic control. "
Hearing the fat man's words, Socutus Delan's body trembled, tears flashed in her eyes, thinking of the helplessness and despair at the beginning, her round and beautiful scented shoulders trembled slightly,
"Okay, disembark, or someone will wait anxiously." The fat man helped Socutus Dailan up, and Mona Qing was waving to this side in the distance,
Suddenly, there was a faint sound from the cabin next to it,
The fat man looked around quickly and saw a charming nv warrior appeared in front of him. It turned out that Isamoril, who had just ran away, came out of the cabin.
The fat man’s eyes lit up, and this violent nv wore a close-fitting lock armor with a long white skirt lined with white plain skirts. The more heroic he looked, the black and elastic long, and a graceful beam appeared behind her head. The pulsating long ponytail and the pale face even more like a little nv person,
If it hadn’t been for the long sniper bow behind her to betray her, no one would have thought that this beauty who stared at her with a faint look of resentment would be the number one killer who would be scared to hear it.
Thinking of what Isamoril said to him just now, the fat man couldn't help but laugh again. He waved his hand to Isamoril in exchange for Isamoril's eyes
"Huh, this fat man must have done nothing good"
Isamorielle glanced at the fat man behind him, just in time to see Socutus Della avoiding shyly, she blushed, her eyes filled with inexplicable emotions and her mouth was dull. He snorted and ignored the fat man. The "dog man nv" ran away like a frightened little rabbit
After a half-day journey, at dusk, Fatty rode a war horse and climbed to the last high hill on the edge of the coast. The long-lost port of Lhasa appeared at the far end of the plain.
Fatty stood here to know why Lazard could become the largest port in the north of Salander,
The natural arc-shaped inward curve~IndoMTL.com~ A huge arm bend more than ten miles wide is formed on the periphery of the port, like a huge arc-shaped semicircle, encompassing the blue sea water, and it seems that the heavens and the earth are merged together. ,
On the sea, there are many large and small island groups scattered according to a certain rule, reflecting the afterglow of the sunset. In each area next to the lake, the vegetation is particularly luxuriant, a group of animals, and various seabirds flying and falling. , The white people gathered by the lake, fascinated with auspiciousness.
"My lord, this place is so beautiful"
Socutus Delan’s surprise cry came from the side. For her first time to the island of Salander, this dreamlike scenery of the island is almost like a paradise. There are almost always surprises on the road
It is also the first time that Mona Qing has shown that Lazar is so beautiful, and her pretty eyes are completely lit up, like a bright moon.
"The whole team is added, the goal is Lazar"
The fat man raised his whip high and said with excitement. Behind him, a group of 3,000 cavalry guards who had arrived earlier, shouted, descended along the **** of the mountain, and rolled in the sky. Smoke and dust
