Chapter 117 The New Town of Philois
Strictly speaking, as a principality, there is no such thing as a royal capital.
However, as the location of the Grand Duke's Mansion, the city of Ferrois was naturally regarded as the political and economic center of the Principal of Delal.
The Principality of Drake is not big, and the city of Ferroyce was naturally not much bigger before.
Not to mention that it is comparable to the Anweimar City, the capital of the Kingdom of Lampari, it is even smaller than the previous city of Bonta, and can be regarded as an inconspicuous small town that can be seen everywhere on the Continent of Sines.
So when the Marquis of Southgide and Seymour saw the walls of Ferrois from afar, they inevitably showed disappointment.
Along the way, they saw a lot of novel things in the Duke of Drake, which opened their eyes and made them look forward to the rumored city of Ferroyce, the most developed city in the entire Duke of Drake. However, they did not expect that after seeing it with their own eyes, it was just this virtue, which was really disappointing.
However, the magic car carrying the two of them did not drive towards the city wall in the distance, but obviously circled around, as if it was going to go around the city directly.
Seymour was stunned and asked the driver they hired together when they hired the magic sedan, "Hey, where are you going to take us?"
The driver glanced at him through the rearview mirror and replied with a smile: "This guest, aren't you going to come here to buy a magic car? It's not sold in the old city. The special sales center of the New Air Chamber of Commerce is set up in the new city. I'll send you there now."
"New Town?" Seymour muttered and looked at the Marquis Southgheed.
The Marquis Southgide nodded slightly and signaled him to wait and see.
Seymour stopped asking any more questions and sat back again.
Feeling the comfort and softness brought by the back seat, Seymour couldn't help but let out a very satisfying and comfortable moan.
If he had first seen a magic car speeding past in that border town before. He was completely impressed by the amazing speed of the magic car, then now he hired this magic car, took it all the way and felt it personally, and he was even more full of appreciation for the magic car.
Even if the speed is countless times faster than traditional carriages, even if it is comfortable to sit here, the magic car has already outperformed all traditional carriages.
When he was in the Marlow Empire, he had a super luxurious carriage at the Duke of Baidi's house. Although the interior and materials inside the carriage were extremely expensive, the softest blanket was also laid inside, but in terms of comfort alone, it still couldn't get into this magic sedan.
Of course, most of the reason why this magic sedan can bring him the comfort of sitting on the sofa in his home is due to the extremely flat road they are driving under their feet.
This was the first time Seymour saw such a flat road, and the magic car was driving on it, almost without feeling the slightest bumps and jumping.
This is completely different from the feeling of riding in a carriage on the roads that always carry potholes in the Marlow Empire, so that on the way, Seymour and Marquis Southghede slept for a while because they were too comfortable.
After personally experiencing such a trip, Seymour made up his mind.
Of course you have to buy a magic car. But accordingly, I am afraid that after you go back, you have to build several identical highways in the empire.
Otherwise, even a magic car would not be very comfortable to drive on those gravel and dirt roads.
The magic car carrying the two maintained a speed of about fifty kilometers per hour, and soon bypassed the old city surrounded by the walls from the highway outside the city of Ferroyce.
Marquis Southgide and Seymour looked forward through the window and couldn't help but take a deep breath together.
Appearing in front of the two was a building complex that seemed to be invisible at all.
These buildings include traditional low wooden houses on the Sainz continent, but more are high-rise brick and stone buildings of at least ten meters.
In the most conspicuous place at the far end, there are three sky-summit buildings that are at least dozens of meters high, which look extremely spectacular.
In the middle of these building communities, there are equally straight, spacious, and flat roads crisscrossing, dividing this huge new urban area into neat areas.
On both sides of the road, high iron pillars are erected at every distance, and a beautifully shaped magic lamp is hung at the top of each iron pillar.
They have seen these magic lamps before, and they should have also been made by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Seymour asked the driver in front of him curiously and learned that these are so-called "street lights", which will light up every night when the light dims, illuminating the entire road.
Hearing the driver's explanation, Marquis Southgide and Seymour couldn't help but exclaim in their hearts.
Not to mention the other city of Ferroyce, just this street light setting is better than all other cities on the continent.
"Haha, you guys are missing." Who knew that after hearing the praise of the two, the driver laughed loudly and shook his head to deny their thoughts. "Tell you, the street lights first started in Bonta City in the Kingdom of Lampari, and later other cities followed suit. It was already late to build this thing in our city of Ferroyce."
"Is Bonta City the first to use this street light? Is it because of the New Air Chamber of Commerce?" Seymour asked.
Along the way, they inquired about the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, and they were very clear about the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce starting from Bangta City, the Kingdom of Lampari.
"Well, this thing was originally proposed by President Xu of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, so Bangta City was the first to implement it. Later, everyone thought that this thing was really useful, so they learned it all."
"It seems... this New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce has changed the appearance of many cities just by relying on simple magic lamps and street lamps." After sighing, the Marquis Southgide's eyes fell on the three towering buildings in the distance, and asked: "So what's wrong with these three such high buildings? Did it also be built by the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce? In the past, such a tall building could not be built in the Drag Duke, right?"
"Those three buildings? No, no, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is just a magical machinery. These three buildings were not built by them, but were built by Amley Chamber of Commerce. But it is not wrong to say that it is related to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. After all, the most important cement, steel bars and other materials for building these three buildings, and a large number of engineering magic machinery are provided by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce."
"Cement? Rebar? Engineering Magic Machinery?" Marquis Southgide and Seymour were the first time they heard these terms, and they couldn't help but be stunned.
The Marquis Southgide looked at the three tall buildings again, and couldn't help but exclaim.
This New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce is really worth exploring. Whenever he thinks he already knows a lot about the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, he can always find something new to make him realize his mistakes.
The Marquis Southgide suddenly felt that the decision to run to the Principality of Drake on a whim because he saw the novel magical machinery in the Frank Kingdom was really correct.
If we can figure out some of the details of this new air commerce chamber of commerce, then this trip will be a great reward.
"Okay, it's here."
The magic car suddenly slowed down slightly, then slowly slowed down and finally stopped.
Marquis Southgide and Seymour turned to look out of the car and found that they had arrived at the open space in front of a very large building.
Through the car window, you can see that there is a large sign hanging on the door of the building with the words "Xinfei Product Service Center".
"Hey, we are here to buy a magic sedan. Why are we here to come here?" Seymour couldn't help but say.
"Yes, this is the place to sell magic cars..." The driver smiled and opened the car door for the two of them.
Marquis Southgide and Seymour got out of the car, and then two more magic cars stopped next to him. The followers brought by Marquis Southgide on this trip walked down from the failed magic car.
Originally, they rode all the way from the Frank Kingdom in two traditional carriages, but because they saw the magic car with their own eyes in the border town, they happened to find out that there was a chamber of commerce in the border town that specialized in renting magic car business, so they simply threw the carriage in the town and rented three magic cars directly, connecting the hired drivers all the way.
I have to say that this decision not only made them much more comfortable on the journey, but also saved them a lot of time.
The border town is more than 100 kilometers away from Ferrois City. If you take a carriage, it will take at least half a day to get there.
But after transferring to the magic sedan, it only took two hours.
Marquis Southgide looked at the huge building in front of him, which occupied a land of tens of thousands of square meters, and nodded: "Go in and take a look."
The group walked towards the gate, the transparent and shiny glass door was opened, and a young and beautiful woman came up.
Everyone's eyes fell on the welcome lady and were stunned again.
"This...is this an orc?"
Seymour looked at the two furry rabbit ears that were stretched out from Miss Welcome's head in surprise, and couldn't help but want to reach out and touch it to see if it was true, but was slapped by the Marquis Southagide.
"Attention to your behavior, Seymour." Marquis Southgide rebuked him, and then gave a pity to the Welcome Miss: "I'm very sorry, this beautiful orc lady has scared you."
The Orcs' Welcome Miss was indeed a little scared by Seymour's actions, but now when I saw the noble temperament in front of me, who knew at first glance that he was not an ordinary person, apologized sincerely to him. I immediately forgot about this and waved my hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay. These...uh...some guests, do I have anything to help you?"
