Blue Lake City.
As the capital of the Thousand Lake Kingdom, it is the largest city in the kingdom.
In the past hundreds of years, as the population continued to gather, Blue Lake City continued to expand. Today, the total area of the city has exceeded 20 square kilometers, and the scale is extremely large. The population living here has reached 250,000. after that.
Even in the entire human world, the scale and population of Blue Lake City can also be ranked in the top three.
In addition, it is the cultural, economic, political, and military center of the kingdom.
Blue Lake City has a large number of famous nobles and billionaires. It naturally has a huge attraction to talents.
The Kingdom’s best writers, dramatists, poets, and performers all regard Blue Lake City as the largest stage for displaying their talents. It is a matter of course for it to become a cultural center.
However, the status of "economic center" was worthy of the name before, but now, this name is in jeopardy.
Because of the rise of the "Chaka Town-Port of Copernicus" economic belt.
Countless commodities from Haichao lands crossed the oceans and gathered in the town of Chaka through Copernicus Port on the east coast, then distributed to the major chambers of commerce, and finally transferred to all parts of the kingdom by them.
Among these high-quality goods, there are large hot air balloons with a diameter of tens of meters that can lift humans into the sky, as well as well-made, durable armors, weapons, and gadgets such as needles and scissors. Popular, all sell well all over the world.
On the other hand, the sea tide collar is like a greedy behemoth, devouring various resources eagerly.
Almost every month, more than 20,000 slaves were transported from Port Copernicus to Haichao Territory, sometimes as many as 30,000 or 40,000.
At the same time, there are thousands of tons of grain, livestock, cloth, as well as medicinal materials, rare minerals and other materials, flowing continuously from all parts of the kingdom to Copernicus Port, and then across the ocean to reach the tideland.
Not to mention the cement factory, furniture factory, black ice distillation factory, and a series of newly established super factories, which have created countless wealth and made countless people rush to Chaka Town.
The commercial roads connecting Chaka Town and all parts of the kingdom are like the blood vessels in the human body. Wealth, resources and other "nutrients" seem to flow in the "vessels" forever.
Chaka Town is the end of all "blood vessels" and the core-the heart.
Today, any merchant in the Thousand Lake Kingdom has regarded Chaka Town as a city of commerce and a city of wealth.
Blue Lake City?
Oh, the era that belonged to it has passed...
"A businessman who has not been to Chaka Town is not a real businessman". Which businessman hasn't heard?
...
As for whether Blue Lake City is still the "political center" of the kingdom, this is debatable.
Although many nobles still cherish the royal family and think that His Majesty Luther IX on the throne is more qualified to represent the Thousand Lakes Kingdom, more people feel that the most influential person in the kingdom is under the crown of the God of War.
To put it mildly, if Mian Ma secretly said something dissatisfied with your Majesty, after this sentence was passed to Blue Lake City, did your Majesty sleep well at night?
To give another example, if Luther IX publicly accused a high-powered nobleman, such as the "Sunflower" Duke in the southern part of the kingdom, would that Duke care?
How can it be!
The Duke of Euclid would only treat it as a badass, and then he would surely invite his 2 favorite lovers to celebrate the whole evening.
Who doesn't know that the duke always hates the royal family?
The more upset Luther IX was, the happier the Duke was.
What can Luther IX do about the Duke’s gross disrespect?
He can't do anything, he can only bear it.
However, what if the critics of the duke are replaced by the **** of war?
Hehe, the Duke will immediately take his family and hide into the deep basement, shivering like a gopher, always worrying about the silver angel flying across the sky and casting a terrible flame...
Isn't it funny to be a poor "political center" like Blue Lake City?
...
Finally, is Blue Lagoon still the military center of the kingdom?
Do not make jokes.
What do you think of the Rose Legion?
Even the most shameless person can't say this kind of brainless awkwardness now, right?
Can the well-known "Sapphire Knights" controlled by the royal family, the army that "once" claimed to have the most extraordinary men, withstand an assault by the Armored Corps?
The palace located next to the "Sapphire Lake", can it last for 5 minutes under the bombardment of the Sky Knight Army?
From the above various situations, we can see how embarrassing the current status of Blue Lake City is.
In just one year, the four "cultural, economic, political and military center" hats on its head lost three at an incredible speed, leaving only the pitiful "cultural center".
But, is there a bird use in the Cultural Center?
Can it help your majesty in the palace to stabilize the crumbling throne?
From this perspective, under the crown of Luther IX and the God of War, who is more like the master of the kingdom?
The answer is self-evident.
…………
"Hey, give me hands and feet quickly..."
"Hurry up and clear this area out, I don't want to see any pebbles..."
"This is very important... If it is not cleaned up, if there is an accident when the'Silver Angel' descends, Your Majesty will punish you severely, and no one can save you..."
Next to the Sapphire Lake in front of the palace, a palace steward in a blue robe was shouting.
A group of servants stood in two long rows, walking slowly in the square by the lake, squatting down and picking up small gravel or leaves and other debris.
On the left of the servants, the regular hexagonal "Sapphire Lake" is rippling with microwaves. Through the lake less than 3 meters deep, you can clearly see the blue hexagonal stone slabs at the bottom of the lake.
The stone slabs are carefully polished from a kind of ore called "Lanqi Rock". There are more than 200,000 stone slabs laid in this artificial lake.
This is really a huge project.
However, for the face of the royal family, it is still worth it.
Direct sunlight hits the stone slabs at the bottom of the lake. The blue light is reflected by the slates, and the lake water is dyed with a hint of azure blue. Coupled with the clear water, the whole lake looks blue, like transparent blue crystals. Extremely Beautiful.
Looking down from the sky, this sapphire lake is just like a giant sapphire embedded in the earth, extremely beautiful and brilliant.
It is a symbol of the royal family, and it is also the reason why the "Oshinus" family got its name from the "Sapphire Lake" family.
Michelin admired this artificial lake, which is famous in the human world, and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
He had just stepped down as the director of the Chaka Township Commercial Department, and was immediately dispatched to Blue Lake City to serve as the highest person in charge of the “Consulate” of Hai Chao Ling in Blue Lake City. He was transferred to be responsible for the communication between Hai Chao Ling and the royal family.
"Mr. Michelin, when can the'Silver Angels' transporting fireworks by the Sky Knights arrive in Blue Lagoon City? The'Fireworks Show' will be held tonight. We are running out of time for preparation..." The steward walked to the side of Michelin. , Asked eagerly.
Michelin took out a delicate pocket watch, opened the cover, and began to check the time.
The manager looked at the pocket watch in the other's hand with some greedy eyes.
The exquisite pattern of seagulls carved on the back of the dial let him know that this is a "Seagull" pocket watch.
This is also one of several high-end pocket watches sold by the Haichao Chamber of Commerce. It is much more expensive than other low-end brands with fancy names like "Patek Philippe" and "Vacheron Constantin".
The former often sells for more than 20 kinnals, some styles are as high as 50 kinnals or more, and the latter generally does not exceed 5 kinnals.
With the income of stewardship, it is still not possible to afford the luxury goods of the Seagull brand exclusively for nobles and large merchants.
In addition, he also realized that Mr. Michelin's pocket watch seems to be the legendary "internal limited edition", that is, a special style that is only sold inside the Haichao Chamber of Commerce and not sold at all.
It is said that this type of internal limited edition has more advanced craftsmanship and more functions, and even the magic stones inside can be used for a longer time.
The manager estimates that even if Mr. Michelin bids for 100 or even 150 Kinnars, many people will be willing to take over.
