Release that Witch
Chapter 1296: Horizon visitor
"Father...Do we really need to do this?"
On a piece of open space outside the city of Glow, Horn Quin looked at the busy workers from afar and asked a little dissatisfied.
In front of the two is a rectangular flat square, with a vertical length of almost one kilometer, and a horizontal direction of only about half. Since the gray castle engineering team entered the morning sun, the new length measurement method spread among the nobility.
Unlike the squares in Wangduli, which are made of beautiful masonry, the surface is completely paved with cement, which looks gray and has neither color nor feature. If you want to say an advantage, I am afraid that it is only convenient to repair. It takes only a week from the time to level the land to build the molding.
Even so, the workers involved in the construction are all from the Kui family's own team, and the degree of emphasis can be seen.
"Oh?" Horford Quin, the current morning lord, glanced at him with interest. "What are you referring to?"
"The instructions from Roland's Majesty are too much," Horn said with a finger. "It's a bridge repair and a road repair. It's also a big project that is dozens of miles away. You gather all the long-term workers in the family." What about these, what do you do in the territory? There are still a few places to be repaired in the castle that have not yet been started."
Of course, his dissatisfaction is by no means the same two points.
My father’s request for the king of the Grey Fortress was too much valued.
It can even be described as harming others.
For example, cement, which looks like a wide range of alchemy products in the forefront, will inevitably bring lucrative profits if the monopoly is in the hands of the family.
However, just because Roland wrote a letter saying, "Please be sure to expand its output as soon as possible", the father called the great aristocrats into the palace and publicized the formula in public. Collecting the power of the major chambers of commerce under the aristocrats, the cement factory did establish several in a short period of time, but the Quin family’s gains were undoubtedly reduced.
When it was the turn to build the road, the situation reversed.
Those big aristocrats pushed each other one by one, and the father simply came by himself.
From the recruitment of personnel to the completion of the construction of the Gray Fort Engineering Department, the Quin family will bear the burden. This is by no means a small fee. Although the family property of the royal family of Moya has increased the family strength, it can be as fast as water. Looking at the coins in the treasury, the number of coins is decreasing day by day. It is impossible for Horn to say that it is not painful.
The key point is that road repair is not equal to business investment. Jinlong, who is doing business, may exchange more wealth, but what can be earned by connecting the road from the Mobei River to the cage mountain? It is not even in the territory controlled by the Quine family! Even if you can promote business development in disguise, the cheaper ones are only the lords of the border.
From the current situation, the things that Roland wants to build are not just the same. The flat land that is inexplicable and does not see any effect is proof. So profligate, the family will sooner or later encounter the dilemma of being unable to make ends meet. In fact, he has heard a lot of criticism from the internal branch of the family.
What makes Horne most uneasy is the attitude of his father to the Grey Fort.
Not only did each project personally ask questions, but officials from the engineering department were often called into the palace to take the initiative to ask for their request. If the other party is a nobleman, the problem is that Horne can understand clearly that these expatriate "officials" are all civilians and do not have any prominent family. The father invited the civilians to talk to themselves at the same table with the respect of the king of a country. This is somewhat unacceptable to him.
Also, today, when someone heard the gray castle, someone came to Huiguang City, and the father took the brigade and waited outside the city early. It was incredible as a ruler. It was enough respect in the castle to see. Does the royal family do this?
Horn suspected that his adoptive father was making atonement to Andrea. After all, all these changes began after Hofford and his daughter bid farewell.
“What can I do?” Horford shrugged. “Other people are not willing to contribute. I can’t let them come. The power of the Grey Fort has been seen. You don’t think there is support from the Wimbledon family. Can I sit still in this position?"
"No, father... I am not letting you fight against the Grey Fort," Horne waved again and again. "Just you confess two sentences and let the people under your work do it. Roland Wimbledon can't pick anything wrong." And the funds needed can be slowly negotiated with the local lords. The transaction is a compromise. The more worried the businessman is, the easier it is to lose. This is the reason you have taught me."
"Unfortunately, the battle of divineity is not a trade."
"It's true, but..." Horn bitten his lip and finally said with courage. "But you are like this now. Some people think that it is not like the Lord of the Morning, but the courtier of Roland Wimbledon. It!"
He thought that this would arouse his father's anger, but the latter just stared at him for a while, then smiled in an understatement. "I ask you why this continent has four kingdoms, not five. One or three?"
"Oh..." Horne was caught off guard by the sudden transition of the topic. "Because...the four are the strongest families?"
“The more accurate statement is in their respective territories.” Horford replied, “The power of the family will weaken as the distance grows. The so-called border is the critical point at which the forces on both sides reach equilibrium. But now, this The tipping point no longer exists. As long as Roland Wimbledon is willing, he can completely collect the territory of the four kingdoms. If so, what is wrong with me as his vassal?"
Horne subconsciously retorted, "Father! Even if the army of the Grey Fort can fight again, he can't control such a large site! Are you too exaggerating his ability..."
"You haven't realized the change of the Grey Fort, child." Hofford exhaled. "The former Roland may not have, but now the distance is no longer an obstacle to his rule. Of course, you have not learned much about what he did." Everything is naturally hard to imagine what he did."
"How do you know..."
Hofferd smiled. "Andreia returned my letter."
This made Horn's heart sink.
Just as he was preparing to persuade his father, there was a sudden exclamation in the distance.
Then there was a dull humming.
Horne looked at the sound and couldn't help but glimpse. I saw a string of neat black shadows appearing in the sky. They lined up in a horizontal line and were flying along the skyline towards Huiguang City.
Is that... a migratory bird?
But after a while, the idea was rejected, and the size of the black spot quickly grew to the point where it was far beyond any bird in the world, and it is still expanding.
Horn gradually widened his eyes, and it looked like something artificial!
The workers who witnessed this scene could not help but put down the tools in their hands and shouted.
Many caravans passing by also stopped and looked up at the sky.
"It's incredible... actually let him do it." Hofford raised his lips. "Theone I want to pick up... is coming."
When he heard this sentence, Hornton was dumbfounded. Is it true that these big squares are the vehicles that the gray fort was made?
How can this be! ?
