Magic Industry Empire - 911. Chapter 911

Just after the New Year, the severe winter cold still enveloped the entire Sainz continent.

The Maro Empire is located in the north of the mainland, and it is naturally colder than the countries in the south of the mainland every winter.

The small town of Stasom, located in the northernmost part of the Maro Empire, is not only a colder problem than other places on the continent, it is almost completely two worlds at all.

The cold wind blowing from the endless sea in the north can only be regarded as a breeze when it enters the south wind of the mainland, making people feel a little bit of chill, and when the small town of Stratholme faces this cold wind, you will find the wind blowing. On the face, it was as if a sharp blade was brushing on the face, blowing the face stinging.

“Silk–”

A cold wind hit the face, making Hogan and Dicardo involuntarily take a breath, and couldn’t help but wrap the leather jacket on their bodies tighter again and shrink their necks. , Even the eyes that were only exposed to the outside narrowed involuntarily, leaving only a gap to look north.

“Hey, Decardo, you said that on such a cold day, even if we meet the people in the transport fleet, how should we transport the goods back?” Hogan’s voice through the mask looked extremely dull, and stepped in. Dicardo felt a little strange in his ears.

But this is of course not what Dicardo is concerned about at this time. He glanced at the sea where there was no trace at all, and shook his head with a wry smile.

“We can only take one step and see one step. The guys in the transport fleet did not follow the plan at all. It was more than two months later than the scheduled time. If they arrived more than two months ago, the weather It’s much easier to handle before it’s so cold.”

Hogan was silent for a moment, and sighed: “This can’t be blamed on them. After all, they ran from a place as far away as Stanting and bypassed the entire continent. The distance is so long and the sea conditions are so complicated. Sudden situations are inevitable. To be honest, if they can arrive safely, it is already very powerful.”

“Hmm… That’s right.”

Dicardo responded and looked again at Stratholme Harbour, which appeared in the distance.

This port was originally the largest seaport in the northern part of the Marlow Empire. After signing an agreement with the Marlow Empire last year, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and the Marlow Empire invested three million gold coins for renovation and expansion, building this into a new type of seaport that can accommodate large ships.

The fleet to explore the northern waters led by Nevar last year sent by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce took this port as its destination.

According to the original plan, the first fleet of the transport fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce led by Nevar should arrive around October last year.

At that time, the Marlow Empire was still in early winter, and the weather was normal.

However, the First Fleet was delayed at sea for more than two months, and even lost contact completely at one time. The New Flying Chamber of Commerce almost thought that something had happened to them, and they were all buried in the endless sea.

Fortunately, for the sake of safety, the two magic airships that Xu Yi sent to them played a big role at this time. In the middle of last month, about half a month after the fleet lost contact, one magic airship flew to the cable. The territory of the Marquis of Skid brought the message of the fleet.

After receiving the message, Hogan, who served as the head of the Marlow Empire Office of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and Dicardo, who was also the deputy head of the office, and also the main liaison officer, immediately organized the manpower and fleet and came to Stratholme.

After they arrived here, they waited for more than half a month. They kept in close contact with the fleet through the magic airship every day. They finally got the confirmed information three days ago that the fleet will arrive in Stratholme safely today.

So today, although the wind was freezing cold and the temperature outside was almost freezing to death, the two of them left the warm bed early in the morning and arrived at Stratholme Harbor.

After observing Stratholme Harbour for a while, Decardo let out a sigh of relief.

“Fortunately, I was worried that as the weather gets colder and colder, this harbor may be completely frozen by ice and cannot be docked. Now it seems that even if the weather is cold, I want to completely freeze the endless sea. impossible things.”

Hogan laughed when he heard the words: “We were completely shocked by the rumors of these guys in the Marlow Empire. They said that as long as the winter enters, the endless sea will freeze and there is no way to go to sea. I thought at the time. What they are talking about is that the entire sea is covered with ice. Looking at it this way, there is ice, but it’s just such a piece of ice, which is nothing at all.”

“It can’t be said that they were completely wrong. After all, the fishermen here are just small wooden boats. If they were loaded by these floating ice blocks on the sea, they would fall apart.” Dicardo laughed. “When they see the steel sea-going ship of our New Flying Chamber of Commerce with their own eyes, they will know that such a small amount of ice is not a problem at all.”

Hogan shrugged: “No way, who made them ignorant. When the fleet arrived, these guys saw the various magic machinery produced by our Chamber of Commerce brought by the fleet, and they didn’t know how they would be surprised.”

Decardo and Hogan looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

Before the two came to the Maro Empire, they had a sense of fear and a deep sense of inferiority towards this huge empire, but when they came to the Maro Empire and stayed here for half a year, they found that the Maro Empire was in addition to In addition to the large area, other places are much worse than the Kingdom of Lampari and Duchy of Stantin.

Usually the people they contact are mostly the nobles and big merchants of the Maro Empire. These people are undoubtedly the top group in the Maro Empire, and their lives are indeed extremely luxurious and luxurious.

However, in the view of Dicardo and Hogan, although these people’s lives are luxurious enough, they are so backward in every aspect that they feel very inconvenient in all aspects of living here.

After the two stayed here for half a year, not only the sense of awe in this huge empire in their hearts completely disappeared, they even gave birth to a hint of inexplicable superiority.

The Marquis of Southgate and the noble merchants around him even made them feel superior, not to mention the noble merchants in the small city of Stratholme.

During their half-month in Stratholme, all the nobles and merchants that they came into contact with left them with a very strong impression-an inexperienced hillbilly.

Of course, the living conditions of these guys, in their eyes, are even worse than that of many farmers in the Lampari Kingdom and Stantin Principality.

At least the farmers of the Lampari Kingdom and the Principality of Stantin would not be happy to eat meat…

The two waited patiently for about twenty minutes, when a familiar roar suddenly came from the distant sky.

The two raised their heads together, and saw a black shadow flying in the northwest sky, quickly approaching, turning into a magic airship, and then slowly falling on the flat ground on Stratholme Harbor.

“By the way, Hogan, you said that now that the wind is so strong, how can this magic airship fly so smoothly in the sky? Doesn’t it seem strange?” Decado asked suddenly.

Huo Genlai was about to raise his foot and walk over. After hearing this question, he was taken aback, tilted his head and thought for a while, then shook his head: “I am not from the Institute of Magic and Research and Development. You ask me how I know.”

“That’s right.” Decardo shrugged. “Ask Captain Yin En in a moment.”

The two walked quickly towards the magic airship, and at this time the door of the magic airship was also opened. Captain Ian of the magic airship mentioned by Decado just jumped off from above, and came to them in a few steps. Loudly: “Director Hogan, the fleet can resist here in at most an hour, please make all preparations immediately!”

Hogan nodded: “Okay.”

It’s not nonsense to talk about it, turn around to arrange the manpower that has been prepared long ago, and begin to make some final preparations for the arrival of the fleet.

In fact, these preparations have been properly arranged in the past half a month, and all that needs to be done now is to confirm it again.

The remaining Dicardo and Captain Ian exchanged views on some specific situations.

The content of their conversation mainly focused on whether the fleet has any special needs-such as supplies, corrections, etc., and then they need to reconfirm the various arrangements after the arrival of the fleet.

For example, according to the plan, after the fleet arrives, the cargo will be unloaded at Stratholme Port, and then Stratholme and surrounding cities will be sold for the first time. Then, depending on the situation, it will decide how much to bring into the hinterland of the Maro Empire.

This sea route, which has been successfully explored for more than four months, will communicate with the coastal countries along the way, but the main task is to contact the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and the State of Marlow, and ultimately to the Duchy of Stantin. The land trade roads leading directly to the Marlow Empire are connected together to form a complete business circle.

After the two chatted for a while, Dicardo suddenly thought of the question he had accidentally remembered just now, and raised it to Captain Ian.

“Maintain a stable flight in the high altitude?” Captain Yin En laughed and waved his hand: “Director Dicardo, don’t you think that these questions, the gang of magicians in the Academy of Magic would not think of it?”

“No, no, of course I think they will want it, but I can’t figure it out. Why can the magic airship fly so smoothly when the wind is so strong?”

“Well… Actually there is an aerodynamic balance device on the magic airship-don’t ask me what this thing is, because I don’t know. I only know that as long as you encounter strong winds in the sky, you can Turn on this aerodynamic balance device, and then you can offset a large part of the impact of the strong wind, so that the magic airship stays stable in the sky.”

“So magical?” Decardo blinked, thought for a moment, and guessed: “The magic airship relies on wind magic to fly in the air, so this aerodynamic balance device must also be a wind magic, right? ”

Captain Ian rolled his eyes: “Don’t ask me, I just know how to use it, I don’t need to know the principle.”

Dicardo thought for a while, but still couldn’t figure out the principle, and he could only sigh helplessly: “Well, now our chamber of commerce produces these things, even the people in the chamber of commerce can’t fully understand. I see, Those guys outside the Chamber of Commerce want to imitate them at will, they are simply dreaming!”
