In the early morning, the Riwa car led to the middle of the forest road in the Ephron Mountain Pass. More than a hundred horse-drawn carriages filled with cotton cloth marched on the muddy road.

　　 Wrapped in the carriage are all important materials accumulated by the Dardanelle family for a hundred years. The fat man is going to bring all these materials back to Zhivading,

　　 The cold wind blowing through the forest made the fat man tighten his leather jacket. Below the leather jacket was a layer of lightweight ring armor. The cold steel sheet was attached to the thin underwear, and the thorny pain hurt.

Since the fat man was attacked by the bridgehead, the fat man habitually added a layer of mail on the back of his clothes, but the autumn wind was cold, blown by the oncoming cold wind, and the biting ice cold poured directly into it, even the thick body like the fat man It's a bit overwhelming.

A few days ago, there was a heavy autumn rain, because the trees on both sides were lush, the terrain was cool, and the road surface was not yet dry, which caused great difficulty for the team to move. Under the heavy wagon wheel, a deep rut printed from In the distance, the carriage wandered partly into the mud, and the soldiers who were escorted needed to unload all the goods, and then pushed the carriage out of the mud pit together.

　　 "How long is this road?" The fat man frowned unpleasantly. According to this speed, it is estimated that he could not return to Zhivading in two days.

The muddy and muddy forest road in front of me was built temporarily for the light infantry regiment during the Dardanelle era. Although it was wide enough, the ground bearing capacity was obviously insufficient. It was all year round accumulation of soil in the forest. It was soft and wet. In the rainy season, it is a quagmire,

　　In addition to the recent increase in carriages for transporting construction materials, the originally uneven roadside is now even more crammed. Not only is the vehicle traveling trapped, but it is also not daring to accelerate Mercedes-Benz

"There are more than ten miles of this kind of road. Only when you reach the Ephron Pass, there will be a hard stone face road." The captain of the Six Banner Regiment responsible for the guard, Sabeniken, embarrassed his face and wiped the sweat on his forehead. The displeasure is too obvious

When occupying an area, a road connecting Zhivading was repaired. This was the habit of the Samoan army. This muddy broken road clearly showed the dereliction of duty of the Sixth Banner Regiment. I saw the fat man's eyebrows and Sabine. Ken quickly explained

　　 "A while ago, the riots of the farmers in the entire Japanese tile caravan spread, and the Qituan had to mobilize a large number of people to maintain the order, so the road construction was temporarily delayed!

　　 The head of the flag has begun to deploy manpower, preparing to replace the soft pavement of this forest road with a solid stone road as soon as possible. I believe this bad situation will soon be improved!"

"Well! I hope so." The fat man let go of his tight eyebrows and grunted. Sabeniken was right. Some time ago, he was too busy to be dizzy. No one remembered the road repair. Fat man. Afraid that Sabenik is just perfunctory, then said

"Tell you the head of the Statunko Banner, I will come to Ziva in late October to supervise the construction progress of the Samoir War College and the Port of Tatetis. If at that time, this road is still so bad, I removed his job as an internal officer from Rizhache and asked him to roll back to Falcon territory as his little tax officer!"

　　 "Yes, yes, Lord Lord, please rest assured, your words will be brought to the leader of the flag intact!" Sabeniken nodded happily, and the Governor said that he was not prepared to pursue this matter.

Sabenik was a sergeant guardian in the era of the Fatty Falcon Territory. Since fighting with the Fatty, he has gone through several life-and-death battles. Lord Governor, not only showed closeness to the fat man, but also showed his old qualifications to the guards around the fat man.

The muddy road slowed down the speed of the horse team. The fat man had to take the guard back to Zhivading first, cross the Ephron Pass, and embark on a wide commercial road built strictly in accordance with the standards of the Samoer road. More,

　　The big project in the south is not only attracting the local aristocrats of Riwache, but also the caravans in other regions of Samoer. The muddy forest road cannot stop the determination of the merchants to pursue profits.

　　 Faced with a bad transportation line on the road, the businessman came up with a tortuous way to drag the building materials to the town of Linato near the Ephron Pass, and then board the boat from the dock of Linato town,

Transport along the river to the town of Tardins in the southern suburbs of Riwache, and then go ashore to load the vehicle to Riwache. Because the river is not large, you can only carry the goods on the wooden row and follow the water. Instead of going upstream with a big ship, the fat man had to choose land.

In Dantus Town, not far from Zhivading, the fat man actually found a team of Yuyehua caravans from Kyoto, three small carriages parked outside the tavern outside the town, and the fat man had left Kyoto for some time. Only a general understanding of the situation in Kyoto,

I only know that the old Jones liar has opened up a situation in Kyoto with the secret support of the business alliance. Around the Jones family, a large force has formed, although it has not yet reached the point of resistance to the royal family and conservative chambers, but that It's just a matter of time. Any new thing needs a process of development.

"Dismount all, and find a place near to take a break!" The fat man looked at the lively town in front of him and waved the dozen guards behind him to stop the horseshoes. The guards took the horse reins from the fat man, the people in the town Quite a lot of businessmen, especially in horse-drawn carriages, rushed to the road. A wide commercial road runs through the center of Dantus Town, on both sides are small hotels and cargo stations run by the residents of the town. The wooden doors and windows on the street are mostly closed. This is an unwritten rule of the merchants.

Businessmen always care about the secret of their goods. If the doors and windows are closed, it means that someone has used it here. If it is opened, it means that they are waiting for rent. The pedestrians passing by can only look at this row of closed doors and windows curiously. , Hearing the hustle and bustle of drinking and the shouting of the goods in his ears is also a unique scenery of Dantous.

Dantus is located on the south side of Zhivading~lightnovelpub.net~ is the only way to get in and out of Zhivading. Many businessmen choose to rest in Dantus, wait for the goods to be sorted, and after contacting the warehouse, Then set off for Zhivading.

The fat man came to the front of the tavern where there was a carriage with lush leaves, and carefully examined the three carriages in front of him. One of the carriages had a deep crack on the side door handle, as if it had been cut in half, and the broken wood had dried. Yellow hair is black. At first glance, it is the old traces left by the sharp weapon, which makes the fat man feel a jump in his heart.

The fat man remembers that old man Jones likes to brag about his young travel. One of them was assassinated by a rival. During the fight, the rival’s hand axe cut the door handle of the carriage. In order to show off his charm, the old man Jones took this The scratched carriage is used as its own carriage.

　　 "Crunch" The fat man pushed open the wooden door of the pub with suspicion, the bustle of the bustle came, and I saw that it was filled with businessmen and mercenaries from south to north, a dozen tables, only the top left corner of the table was still empty

　　 "Boss!, sixteen glasses of pine nut wine!"

The fat man waved his hand to the pub owner and took the guards to the table in the upper left corner. His eyes were carefully watched twice. There was no shadow of the old Jones liar. He could not help frowning slightly. "Did you remember it wrong?" "

"Cousin Jones Nelly! Do you think the business alliance will help our Longs family this time?" A figure familiar with seductiveness suddenly came in from the gate of the tavern. Jones Nelly, who was missing for many days, accompanied a petite noble girl Walked in, followed by two handsome young nobles.

　　 Jones Nelly was about to answer her little cousin, her eyes suddenly stopped, and in the upper left corner, a fat man with a depressed face was staring at himself glaringly.
