Warm Dragon
Chapter 575 Exile to the Snowfield
Outside Stormrage City, a grand groundbreaking ceremony was being held. Archduke Russell personally attended the groundbreaking ceremony and took the lead in shoveling the first shovel of soil.
Blah blah blah...
The applause never stopped.
Russell put down the shovel, raised his head with satisfaction, and looked at the sign erected next to it, which read "Construction of Furongfeng-Zecheng Railway Line, South Line Section Project."
In the days when the warm season has just arrived, the construction of the first railway in the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy and the entire Longmian Continent has officially begun.
Steam trains have been developed at the Blackfire Lands' testing grounds.
The original plan was to build a railway in the small oasis of Yunmeng Ze, but since Russell had ascended the throne as the Grand Duke, he naturally arranged the railway in the volcano oasis, from Stormrage City, the capital of Stormrage Province, to Ze, the capital of Mist Province. city.
In the future, this railway will continue to be built northwestward, connecting all the way to the fire ant swamp.
certainly.
This is not Russell giving preferential treatment to the Sunflower Family, but preparing to build a railway from the fire ant swamp to the Black Horse Snow Forest - the scholars of the Round Table of Great Scholars have begun to study the technology of building railways under the ice.
Eventually, this railway will connect the Kingdom of the Fiery Torrent, thereby enhancing communication between the two countries.
The transit of the frost star and the arrival of the frost troll world seriously threatened the survival of mankind. Although there were human leaders like King Ares supporting him, Russell still believed in himself and changed the world through industrialization.
If the human race as a whole does not become stronger, just one or two dragon knights cannot compete with the entire frost troll world.
after all.
Before the frost trolls came, humans were all suppressed and beaten by the snow giants. Now that the frost troll army will arrive at any time, the dragon knights will also have no time to spare.
"Your Highness, only four companies have received funds raised from the railway." After the groundbreaking ceremony, the eldest brother Roland reported to Russell the progress of the railway layout, "Youguang Ling, Sanchahekou, Populus euphratica Gobi and Golden Fields."
"Gravel Collar, Fire Ant Swamp and Black Court Mountain are all unwilling to raise funds?" Russell asked in a deep voice.
In order to implement the policy of "build roads first if you want to get rich", Russell plans to build railways for all seven warm enclave provinces. Of course, the money to build the railway needs to be paid by the lords of the Nuanwen Enclave, otherwise the Red Fort alone cannot afford it.
"The Fire Ant Swamp and Black Court Mountain are delaying, and the Earl of Oscloth of Gravel Territory has clearly rejected the railway construction plan."
"How dare he?" Russell raised his eyebrows.
"Earl Osclo has made it clear that the Gravel Territory is the hereditary and irreplaceable territory of the Shuiliu family. It is his choice whether to build the railway or not. The Red Castle has no right to ask him to build the railway." Roland said with a smile, "This guy has always been unable to carry out the task. Qing, I can’t clearly see the situation in the Grand Duchy.”
If it were Queensley and Mel who succeeded the Grand Duke, and Count Osclo was so tossing, the Red Castle wouldn't be able to do anything to him.
Unfortunately, it is Russell who now succeeds as the Grand Duke.
"Send another envoy to urge Osclo to pay the railway funds and fully support the construction of the railway."
"He certainly won't listen."
"Don't listen?" Russell narrowed his eyes, "It seems that after I was promoted to the Phantom Dragon Knight, my performance was not enough... Big brother, the Shuiliu family disgusts me. You said, I abolished the Shuiliu family and created a new lord. Is it possible?”
Roland frowned: "Your Highness, as long as you and His Highness Ying Yan make up their mind, they can naturally abolish the Shuiliu family by force, but...after all, the rules have been passed down for five thousand years, and the Grand Duchy has no precedent of abolishing noble territories."
"Then spread the word that I want to abolish the position of Earl of Gravel Territory." Russell said.
After a pause, he continued: "Although grandpa denied my canonization of the little princess Kunlaya, I cannot owe the Yingyan Dragon Blood Family any reason or reason. This is what Yingyan means. Wait until Kunlaya When she reaches adulthood, I will definitely give her a title, and the Gravel Collar would be a good choice.”
"Do you really want to grant the gravel collar to Kunraya?" Roland was surprised.
"It's just for publicity. Firstly, it will scare Osclo, and secondly, it will pave the way for the enfeoffment of Kunlaya in the future."
"That's a good idea."
"In short, the railway layout is an established policy and no one is allowed to obstruct it." Russell said, "While warning Osclo, you must also send someone to explain it carefully to the Sunflower family. If you don't pay, I will come personally. ”
Roland responded, and then said: "Where is this side of Heiting Mountain?"
"I will summon Kuris Tianzicao later and ask him if he has no money or is not cooperating." Russell said, "No matter what, Heitingshan has to pay. If he doesn't pay, my sister's face will be bad. make."
Sister Luo Lin married into the Tian Zicao family.
"As far as I know, the Tian Zicao family's finances are indeed a bit unhealthy. Of course, this is not the reason why they don't pay." Roland smiled, "Then I'll get to work first. The stalls of the Ministry of Industry are too big and things are too big." too much."
"Thank you for your hard work, brother."
…
Russell tried to persuade Kuris Tian Zicao to complain about his poverty, but in the end it had no effect and he had to obediently agree to pay.
After the messenger sent the message, the Sunflower family cursed Russell and did not dare not pay.
Only Count Osclo, after hearing the news that Russell had let out, was frightened and immediately came to the Red Castle and jumped up and down. He also visited Princess Anxia to express his loyalty to the Shadow Flame Dragonblood Family, and cried to Marquis Merlin about the great achievements his ancestors had made for the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy.
He even sent gifts to Marquis Arnaud, hoping that Marquis Arnaud would send a message back to his country and ask King Ares to seek justice.
However, Marquis Arnold accepted the gift, but did not send a message back to his country. Instead, he sent someone directly to inform Russell.
After learning the news, Russell laughed and said, "What a shame!"
Then he directly convened the cabinet and issued a decree: "As my vassals, the Shuiliu family disobeyed me and even colluded with foreign envoys to try to force me. How should we deal with this crime of treason and rebellion?"
The cabinet was still discussing, but something unexpected happened.
The daughter-in-law of the Shuiliu family, Dai Wen, the sister of the golden baron Dyson Jindingmo, brought her son Oden Shuiliu, who was only half a year old, to report on her father-in-law, mother-in-law and husband, and she was dissatisfied with the new Grand Duke. Resentment.
"It's interesting." Russell narrowed his eyes and smiled as he looked at the notebook that Dai Wen sent over, which was filled with all the resentments of the Osclo family.
Then he looked at Dai Wen who was kneeling in front of him: "Raise your head."
Dai Wen raised her head tremblingly: "Your Highness, Dai Wen is loyal to Your Highness, and everyone else in the Shuiliu family is also loyal to Your Highness. It is all because of the Earl and Countess of Osclo and Augustus who are resentful of Your Highness. !”
"What do you want?" Russell asked bluntly.
Dai Wen glanced at Russell cautiously and replied: "I want to keep Oden's title... Your Highness, Oden will definitely be loyal to Your Highness!"
"Then it depends on your performance. Take your notebook and report it to the cabinet." Russell waved his hand in disinterest.
The guards immediately took Dai Wen away.
Russell shook his head and said in his mind: "Paulie, Paulie, I used to be quite interested in treating Shuiliu's family, but now, I just feel that this family is just some clowns, or just a few buzzing dogs." fly."
No matter how high Count Osclo jumps, in his opinion, they are just ants that can be easily crushed to death, so there is no fun at all.
"Because you are stronger now." Paulie responded.
"With great power in one body, indeed, I have reached the pinnacle of knighthood, and no one can shake my foundation."
Three days later.
The cabinet discussed the punishment for Count Oscloth, his wife, and his son. They punished Osclot and his son with ten years of hard labor in combat, and turned the Earl of Gravel Stone into Baron Gravel Stone, and took back the sponge dragon that had been Mrs. Quinli's dowry.
"It doesn't hurt." After receiving the report from the cabinet, Russell was very dissatisfied with the punishment result.
Then a golden seal edict was issued directly.
"Osclo Sui Liu and Augustus Sui Liu were disrespectful to me. They stripped me of their title of Earl of Gravel and their identity as heirs. They were exiled to the snowfields for life and could not return to the Gravel Territory. Quinli Shadowflame was resentful of me. You will not be allowed to leave the Rubble Castle for life.”
"Dai Wen was loyal to me, and her son Oden Shuiliu was young. He cut the Earl of Gravel into the Baron of Gravel and gave it to Oden to inherit when he became an adult. The Gravel Territory was divided into two, and part of it... became the Gravel Baron. Baron Shi was granted a fiefdom, and the other part was nationalized and established as a province."
"Three-headed bipedal flying dragons, the white crystal dragon is inherited by Baron Gravel, the sponge dragon and the fire-stealing dragon take back the Red Castle!"
"——The partner of the Shadowflame Dragon, the owner of the Shadowflame Volcano Oasis and the Yunmengze Small Oasis, the Shadowflame Grand Duke Russell Fluorescent Fungus."
