Chapter 416: Long live the lord

Views:

The people in Ghost Knife Port are very excited for no other reason. They knew two days ago that the legendary Governor of Mad Wolf who unified Schindler and defeated the demon army, their real lord, is coming to Ghost Knife Port today. Knife Hong Kong!

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.

Citizens are very interested in it.

The population structure of Ghost Knife Port is very different from most cities. In this port city built from a barren land, the first residents were slaves.

Dane's good brother Dodoro who was a pirate brought him a lot of slaves ship after ship. After all, slaves stolen by pirates are indeed a rather difficult 'product' to sell, unlike ordinary materials that are not easy to sell. 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, who dare to be so crazy at sea, probably feed the fish long ago. Few can be like him, relying on selling slaves to Dane. It's booming - where is the slave ship so easy to grab

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 I heard from 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 a malicious guess of Dane.

These slaves transported to Ghost Knife Port, under the special "Resident Act" 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 were 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, environment and It is quite a friendly city to attract, so I have lived here for a long time.

The development of Ghost Knife Port is 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.

Today, Qianfan is docked 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.

A lot of people got rich because of it.

Not only the Shire people, but also some other merchants also recognized this important business opportunity and were willing to stop 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 strange if Ghost Saber Port could not develop.

Moreover, a few months ago, Ghost Knife Port encountered a rare opportunity—the industrial relocation from 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, there must always be a place to stay.

Comilla Island and Ghost Knife Port are obviously good places to stay.

Tommy seized this good opportunity, took advantage of the inflow of a large amount of funds and personnel, and quickly issued a series of decrees, hoping to take this opportunity to greatly upgrade the urban development of Ghost Knife Port to a higher level.

He did it.

Although many people and materials returned to Shawan Port after the war, Tommy has already benefited a lot from these populations and products staying in the port for only one 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 right time, the right place and the right people, all of these add up to create 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.

In addition, during the war, Dane's brilliant victories, one after another, were very legendary 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 wolf, wearing a fine chain mail, with a scarlet cloak fluttering on the back with the wind and rain, walking on the avenue, like Dane who is so strong that he can be called a stalwart, with a serious and unsmiling face. Fulfilling the wishes of the citizens—

This is truly a charismatic lord worth following!

The cry of 'Long live the lord' came spontaneously, and then turned into a mountain roar and a tsunami!
