Chapter 120: Marquis of Commas

Chapter 120 The Marquis of Commas
In the cold wind, a complex and strange group of people, pulling out a long team, on the way to Longyan City.
Despite avoiding the misfortunes that were tied to Longyan City, the next day, the White Blade Guards under Nielai’s subordinates still could not help but say that the Star Mission had
requested
the range of the Black Sands. They rigorously "escort" to Longyan City.
The army of the black sand collar was slowly and orderly followed on both sides and the rear, and Camby and Tulleha still dispatched scouts with due diligence to confirm the safety of the surrounding roads.
The White Blade Guards - this group of masked elite soldiers are indifferent, rude, and inhuman. On several occasions, they almost hit the soldiers of the stars because of shoving.
"...the resurrection of the comet family, the follow-up of the Star Kingdom, which is of great significance to the entire Westland... I mean, the replacement of the ruled royal family may bring years of chaos to the stars, that is The entire Westland, including us - the people of Commas are unwilling to see..." The golden mare's middle-aged Marquis gracefully rides on the horse, with a sly smile on the second prince of the Star Kingdom:
"Thank you for your concern, Lord Marshall of Syracuse." Taylor, who was stiffly riding on the horse, with the same stiff smile, nodded to the guest from the Commas Alliance.
It’s just that the uninvited guest seems to be quite familiar.
Taylors felt that the smile on his face was like the ones dressed in front of the West Gate of Yongxing City, who were dressed cleanly, respectfully and courteously, and who were the "local guides" for the guests who came to Yongxing City for the first time. There are many such young guys or tomboys in the Street Brotherhood. They often have good cooperation with the nephews and the thugs. When they encounter the right goods, they will break their hands, and the best end of those guests is dizzy. The ground was cheated on the purse, and once again, the wallet was stolen. Even worse, it was robbed in a dark alley. Of course, the worst end... you won’t want to know.
"Be careful, boy," a lazy voice came by Tells: "The Commas are approaching you for no reason, and there must be some plots, not for money... for... ...Auntie!"
Edda under the cloak said, holding the mount of Tyres, hit a big sneeze, and pouted his nose pitifully.
"Eda, are you okay?" Tyres asked with concern: "From the time you entered the North, you have been sick."
"Do not bother! What is the temperature?" The elf waved at the forefront of forty-five degrees to the left. He did not care about the rudeness of this movement: "I thought that year, I shouldered a broad knife and crossed the wild mountain, carrying a head-to-head battle. Feast leading... Auntie!"
"Hey," Tyres sighed. "I will give you a bonfire tonight."
"The lady who hides her beauty under the cloak must have misunderstood something," said the Marquis of Syce, laughing happily. "The Commas League is famous for its trade, but we are not the ones who are deliberately welcoming for the immediate benefit." Short-sighted generations, we are striving for long-term interests and mutual benefit and win-win... This kind of business can be done and done for a long time."
"So, if there is a plot, then my plot must be your friendship, His Royal Highness."
Edda snorted: "Commas are all liars, not a good thing - especially in the city of good flow."
Rolf, on the other side of the horse, touched his head, and the Marquis of Shris immediately smiled.
"It may be too biased to say this," said Tyres, riding the reins, in case the mounts violently ("Oh, I must have been put on the aura of the horse"." - The second prince's madness "Muslim" Wyah shook his head: "There are also some Commas in the Tower of the End. Although most of them are poor people from the Conmas League, but with regard to ability and character, I think we have Eck with us. The apprentices are almost the same."

Thank you for your derogatory statement,
said the Marquis of Syres,
The sergeant of Casso.

"That's because you haven't -- auntie -- see the worst guys among them." Edda sneezed again and sneaked his hips: "Make sure you are impressed."
"So, have you ever encountered such a Kangmasian? Edda." Tells asked curiously.
"Yeah," Edda groaned wickedly: "The bad liar, the exaggerated guy! The eloquent, the opportunistic... Auntie!"
The elf snorted and snorted.
Taylor shrugged.
It seems that he was deceived by the Kangmas.
Still cheating.
He regained his gaze to the present, from the city of Shanliu in the west of the mainland, to the Marquis of Syracuse of the Commas Alliance.
"I heard that the Commas Alliance is the kingdom of merchants, Lord Marquis," Tyres slowly asked: "I don't know if it is true?"
"Of course... many people understand this, and I can't say that such a description or description is completely wrong," heard the prince's opening inquiry, and Slythe seemed to be suddenly motivated, and readily said: "But everything It’s all history, my Highness, history.


History? I heard,
Taylors has also aroused interest in research and exploration:
The Commas Alliance is a country formed by several city-states after the end of the war? A country that relies on business start-ups?

"So this casts your tradition and foundation?"
"Exactly, we are not a country, at least not a traditional country," Marquis de Rey looked at Tyres's expression and smiled slowly: "After the end of the war, the four western cities of the Western continent formed Alliances, watching and helping in the chaotic world, and self-protection - including the city of Nice in the southwest of Exeter and the northwest of the Great Desert, this is the origin of the Conmas Alliance."
"We lack resources and resources, and we are sandwiched between several powerful powers. Commas can only seek survival in the form of commerce and trade, support our businessmen to work hard with a free environment and loose tax policies, and act for the powers. Merchants of goods and resources, struggling to survive as a middleman. From this perspective, we are indeed the kingdom of merchants."
"But," said the Marquis of Syracuse, "A few cities, although they belong to the Conmas Alliance, they all operate independently and govern each other. In addition to the "Legal Public Law," each city has its own laws and regulations, its own Dominating the family, their own customs and habits, of course, also have their own characteristics. For example, this time I represent the good city in the alliance and send Exter. In this case, we are not like a country, but more like a group. Businessman's mutual aid organization."
"But you are called the Alliance, aren't you?" Taylors couldn't help but be full of interest, and asked: "There should always be a coalition like? The highest power a city has to comply with?"
"Of course," Slyless smiled. "The so-called Commas's highest joint parliament is responsible for allocating resources within the alliance and coordinating the relationship between city and state. At least nominally, many people think so, but the reality is always Be bizarre than imagined... bizarre."
Slys shook his head and laughed at himself.
"But I still hear that the power of Commas is not to be underestimated." Taylors mobilized the intellectual reserve in his mind - most of what Gilbert taught him in just one month: "Kangma Sco is rich and rich... You are the 'Western money purse'. Some people put you together with the stars and Exeter, and called the West Third."
"The purse?" Slythe smiled bitterly: "Do you really think that is a good nickname?"
Taylors shrugged.
Ok.
This is really not a good nickname, just like no one will ever be happy for being called "Fat Sheep".
"It’s just a few hundred years of self-protection between countries, it takes us a lot of energy."

It’s not a small business. It’s a broad business route,
said the Marquis of Shles, shaking his head.
As I just said, watching and helping each other today, the alliance’s business is getting bigger and bigger, and the route is getting farther and farther. ""

Therefore, four small cities have become four city-states, and new cities have gradually joined our alliance. Until now, the Conmas Alliance has 16 commercial city-states that operate independently, and our trade routes span the entire Western continent. ""

The whole Western continent? How did it do it?
Tells asked curiously.
Can you explain it to me specifically?

"There is no such exaggeration to imagine. These are the routes that each of the sixteen city-states have developed." The Marquis of Syres pulled out a gentleman's stick from the saddle and drew a line in the void:
"From the north to the city of Exeter, the land of Weilan, the kingdom of Ellenbiao in the south to the thorny land, the Principality of Anrenzo in the Dragon Kiss, the East White Mountain and the Freedom League, and even the western edge of the Great Desert, This is the direct route of our land-based caravans – the place we can visit on the way is half of the western continent, and even the left half of the entire continent is within reach.

The Marquis continued to fly and dance:
"And we rely on the western port of the Devil's Sea to extend the business of the Conmas Alliance further: the West Coast has the Devil's Three Islands, the Kingdom of Ellenbia, and the West Coast countries such as Tarendi; and the South After crossing the desperate sea to the promenade, there are the South Coast countries such as the Norton Principality, the Anlenzo Principality, the Promenade Islands, and the Pula Principality;"
"If the fleet's trade ambitions do not stop there, they will continue eastward, drive out of the promenade sea, cross the sea of ​​the sea and the sea of ​​fog, and reach one of the thirteen families of the Star Kingdom. Under the rule of the Kadell family, they are alone in the southwest. Overseas, the wealthy Changqing, and even all the way eastward, drove through the Xihai monks to establish Jingbi City on Jingbi Island, along the sea trade route of the Star Kingdom, to the end of the sea and even the eastern continent - this way, the mainland The right half is also included in the league's trade route."

It sounds great,
said Tyres, frowning, and said:
Your power is spread all over the mainland... It’s not too much to say.

"On the contrary," Marquis de Slys shook his head. "The Commas Alliance only has the city defense teams that belong to the major city-states. There is no unified military force. It is impossible to launch a war. It’s just the joint parliament. Can last for three years."
"Because of relying on business and commerce, even if we are aristocrats, we must go out to open up and trade. - When I was 13 years old, my father went to the Kingdom of Ellenbia for the first time. Our family caravan was detained there.

Rolf, on the side of the mount, walked in the snow and pinched his fist.
"So you can understand it. For the re-establishment of the prince of the stars, I am happy from the heart. This means that a star-sized country like the stars is stable," the Marquis shook his head. "...even if the king system has become a rule." Exeter, once the kingship is replaced by a new Grand Duke family... from the Walton family in Longyan City to the Pefitel family in Rizhao City, or to the Orsiu family in Weilan. It is a small shock. Our established trade routes and long-term commercial contracts must be reconsidered or even completely reversed according to the rules and habits of different families. Not to mention the traditional and ruled countries like Stars. A long history of the royal family."
"So, like this, our business is often suffering from situations that change from time to time throughout the country," Slythes said with a deep sigh: "If there is a place where nobles are still harder than civilians, remember to vote for Commas. One ticket."
"Oh, deserve it," Edda snorted: "I want to make money, I want to be comfortable, and there are so good things."
"You said that it is true, even the famous saying, Ms.," Marquis Slyes sighed and stuffed the gentleman's stick back into the saddle: "So you see, I have to go out to work at the age of thirty-eight."
"So you should come to me to be right," Taylors said with a smile: "Is it for the future of the business chain of stars?"
"It’s for friendship," Slyce said with an interesting look: "Of course, if you have any - I mean anything - in the context of your kingdom, please be sure to let us know."
Marquis of Syres laughed happily: "As a Marquis of a small city, I have no choice but to have some connections and connections."
"Wait, Marquis?" Tyres frowned. "The male boy is a singer... but I don't seem to hear it. Is there a knight in the world?"
Hearing here, Slys looked at Tyres and looked helpless.
