Blue sky and white clouds, golden sand.
Ogrand leaned lazily in front of the window, watching the rolling waves outside the window, yawning boringly. At present, the Golden Bay is gone, and when you look away, you can see a glorious scene. Those old and dilapidated buildings have been demolished and replaced with new buildings and dense crowds. Seeing this scene, Ogran couldn't help recalling the scene when he and the Founder came to explore here together.
"It's almost like dreaming ..."
While mumbling to herself, the young lady picked up the juice on her hand and took a sip. She still remembers the bones and the charred remains around. But now these have disappeared, and the skeletons of the sailors have been taken away by the priest sent by the temple, saying that they will be returned to the cemetery on the land for burial. The wreckage has also been demolished and construction of a brand new building has begun.
"Miss, Miss!"
At this moment, a maid flushed and hurried in.
"The Grand family has sent someone, who do you guess? The patriarch of the Grand family! He actually came!"
"Isn't this normal?"
Ogrand closed his eyes and yawned.
"Bruce, Svir, Grand ...... All three members of the Holy Land came to the scene. Do you think it is a good thing for our platinum family?"
"Of course this is a good thing."
Hearing O'Grand's words, the maid blinked curiously.
"This shows that our platinum family is more valued by the Holy State, isn't it?"
"Aha……………"
Upon hearing the maid's reply, O'Grand sighed long, then waved his hands boringly.
"Sometimes I really envy you mortals. You don't pretend to have anything in your head, as long as you are happy ..."
"Woo ..."
Facing Oglan's answer, the maid looked a little depressed, but she didn't care too much. After all, as a platinum star, Oglan was like this from an early age, and they were long used to being servants.
"Hey………"
Ogran reluctantly reached out, held down his forehead, and whispered to himself.
"I didn't expect it to be like this ..."
As Ogland complained, she initially set her sights on the advantageous port location of Golden Bay and commercial circulation. However, after returning to the family and reporting the incident to his father, Ogrand found that his father attached great importance to this matter, and not only personally allocated most of the platinum family's liquidity funds for the reconstruction of the Golden Bay, He even applied to the temple to re-apply to the Golden Bay.
When the temple intervened in the official name and acquired the remaining ownership, Ogrand finally understood the reason for this.
On the surface, Golden Bay seems to be just a good business port, but that was a thing in the era of great sailing. For the Holy Land today, Golden Bay is more than that. And all this has to start with the grudges of the Holy State and the Kingdom of Fire.
Because of its unique natural environment and powerful fleet, the country of flames controls a large area of the sea, and the country of the holy religion is a continental country, plus they have to fight against the chaotic monsters invading from land. How to work hard, at the beginning, there were only a few Class III warships in the Holy Land, which were used to combat pirates and besiege smuggling in the sea.
But later, the navy of the country of flames gradually developed, and the country of the holy religion was one step behind, causing the neck of the country of flames to be pinched. At present, the kingdom of flames controls almost all the ocean trade routes of the country of the religion, which is of course unacceptable to the country of the religion.
However, due to geographical problems, it is impossible for the Holy State to send a fleet to the ocean, so the two sides can only stand still.
But now, the recovery of Golden Bay has changed this delicate deadlock.
The Holy State has a port that can go to the ocean, and in terms of the geographical location of the Golden Bay, as long as the Holy State has mastered it here, then they can not only protect their route routes, but also in turn prevent the Fire Country from blocking their own waters. Further violations.
The reason why the State of the Holy Religion did not take action on the Golden Bay before was because of insufficient staffing. Compared to the situation in the sea area, the State of the Holy Religion was more concerned about the chaotic borders on the land. After all, the chaos monsters could not swim.
But now that the Golden Bay has been recovered, and it has not caused any losses on its own, the Holy State must of course control the Golden Bay as the front line against the Fire Country.
Because of this, the ritual of this time will not only transfer its first fleet, but even heard that even a secret fleet that they have been secretly organizing will come here to make their appearances. What this implies is that O'Grand can no longer be clear.
Not only that, but her headache was that after that, the Land of Fire and the Land of Wealth also sent letters, stating that they would also dispatch fleets to participate in this ceremony. Of course, the reason written in the letters of these two countries is to show the friendship and interoperability, but as long as the arrival time of the fleets of the two countries and the fleet of the Holy State are on the same day, you will know what they intend.
I'm so annoying, how can I encounter such a thing as a businessman!
Thinking of this, Ogran couldn't help feeling a headache and crying. What made her even more depressed was that her father appointed himself as the agent of Golden Bay!
Didn't this push her up the fire pit?
Really ...
"Hasn't Founder responded yet? When will he come over!"
Thinking of this, Ogrand couldn't help but feel anxious. He worked hard to deal with the aristocracy, deal with the diplomatic envoys of various countries, and deal with the trivial affairs of the Golden Bay. But he did well. After signing the contract, he ran out of sight. When I asked him when he came, he just responded with the phrase, "I will arrive on time ...", when did you say it was on time? Do you plan to let other countries Are representatives waiting for you alone?
You know, this ceremony is not just about the family forces in the Holy Land, the fleet of the Land of Fire and the Land of Wealth, and even the diplomatic envoys and representatives of the surrounding small countries—if not Ogran Knowing that this time she was going to preside over a groundbreaking ceremony for a port, she would even think that she had participated in any large-scale conference of a world scale!
As for why these envoys came here, Ogrand naturally knew it. They wanted to see if the Holy State had the ability to safeguard their maritime rights and interests, and this time the fleet "duel" was prepared for this. The Holy State wants to break the monopoly of oceanic routes by the country of flames, and the country of flames must show in front of its allies that it still has enough power to control the ocean and the country of wealth that is embarrassed by the country of flames. Of course, this opportunity will not be missed. After all, the wealth accumulation of the country of wealth is largely obtained by the ocean routes controlled by the country of flames.
Originally O'Grand also expected that Founder could come early, and then asked him if there was any good way, but the just didn't show up, so she was so angry!
You know, things have evolved to this day, it's not just an ordinary groundbreaking ceremony ~ EbookFREE.me ~ If the Holy State can overwhelm the fleet of the Fire and Wealth nations, then the Fire Kingdom will rule in the ocean Status will start to falter. But on the other hand, if the fleet of the kingdom of flames and the kingdom of wealth still exhibits no less than the power of the Holy State, then the status and prestige of the Holy State on the continent will also be cracked.
It can be said that this ritual ... even affects the future of the entire continent.
However, why am I so unlucky!
"Miss!"
When Ogrand was crying with a headache deep inside, suddenly, the door opened, and then a servant hurried in.
"We just received a report that the vanguard of the Holy Land will soon arrive!"
"I understand."
Hearing here, O'Grand also had a look of expression on his face, then stood up to tidy up his clothes, and then went out.
"Get ready, I'm going to the pier to meet the VIPs!"
