Chapter 17: Mejepoltan
Li Hong began his expedition to Haikou Town, accompanied by Denison, Harris and Zeyer, and it happened that Luo Shan was attacking the senior hunters during this time, and he would not delay the hunting of their team. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info First of all, the group came to Lanhai Village, Yi Xie? Timburlun led people to greet the group, but there was no Yiren in the procession, it seems that Mary's father is not a leisurely and indecisive person, which is also in line with Li Hong's expectations for Lanhai Village.
Cooperation requires collaborators with a certain ability, Li Hong does not require Yi Xie to have much ability, but at least the courage must be there, such as Yi Erren's obvious rebellion, if the corresponding decision is not made, it will only be them who will be damaged.
"It seems that Mr. Ichea understands what is needed for our cooperation, which is good, and Mary will be pleased to see this." Li Hong spoke to Ichea in a tone like a reprimand for his subordinates, but the status of the two is also true, the Timbleren family needs the support of Bokai City to complete the recovery of the family, and Pokee City only gets some benefits from Lanhai Village in return, without these benefits it doesn't matter to Bokai City, but Timbleren lacks the support of Pokei City, and the road to recovery is not known how to talk about it.
"Timbleren has only one voice, it is so now, and it will be the same in the future, although Ilren is my own brother, but since he has made mistakes, he must bear the mistakes he has made." Yi Xie said very seriously, maybe because he had to deal with Li Hong, or maybe because his brother's rebellion made him feel very sad. There is such a thing as power, those who can't get it desperately want to win it, and those who hold power in their hands refuse to let go, even if they are relatives, they will inevitably fight when they are fighting for power.
But even so, everyone wants to compete, and there are few people who can be indifferent to fame and fortune.
Li Hong and his entourage only stayed in Lanhai Village for one day, observing the changes in Lanhai Village and listening to the report of the person in charge of the Bokai caravan here. There is nothing wrong with the report, and Blue Ocean Village is gradually recovering its economy and people/traffic. After a brief understanding, Li Hong and his party marched towards Mejepoltan.
The last time I came to inspect Lanhai Village, I didn't go to Meijiepoltan, in order to keep it fresh, Li Hong was not worried about not having this kind of opportunity, and now the opportunity will come.

As a city, the walls of Mejepoltan can be said to be very rudimentary, and the height is even lower than that of Pokei, which has just been promoted to a city-level settlement, and Mejepoltan is not a newly established place, it has a history of at least a hundred years. But as a port city, a wall as high as Mejepoltan is actually enough, and only Armageddon can compare with it in Li Hong's memory.
Mejepoltan also has only three walls, and on the sea side is a huge wharf with large and small ships parked on the wharf, workers loading and unloading goods along the wharf, and passengers boarding and alighting them. Everything looks very good, not much different from Armageddon, but this is only the idea of people like Li Hong who don't know the history of Megerportan.
Mejepoltan is gradually declining, people who know the history and have lived here for more than ten years and decades understand this, once upon a time, this can be said to be the only city-level port in the old sea area and even in the royal capital area, even town-level and village-level are not many, but with the rise of many port towns, the status and interests of Mejepoltan have been divided again and again, and this is no longer the prosperous port city that once was.
Pokei City's support for Blue Sea Village was not originally seen by the high-level leaders of Meje Portan, and Pokey City did not greet them and they did not say anything, but it was precisely because of this support from Pokey City that Meje Portan's economy had a sense of recovery. The higher-ups of Mejepoltan had to pay attention to the support of Pokei City, and these high-ranking officials learned from some source that Pokey City was preparing to choose the next support object, and immediately launched a request to Pokey City.
The place where the request for support is not Mejepoltan itself, both are city-level settlements, and Mejepoltan will be laughed at by other cities if they want to fall to other cities for support, so the high-ups of Mejepoltan chose the nearest port town to the west of Mejepoltan, Haikou Town.
For example, the intensity of support such as that of Blue Sea Village can make Mejepoltan recover a lot, and if the support is placed next door and the support is stronger, maybe Mejepoltan will be able to recover more quickly. Of course, to return to the previous level, the high-level leaders of Mejepoltan did not dare to imagine that the reason why Mejepoltan was able to dominate for a while in that era was because of the scarcity of port towns, and now that there are so many port towns, it is impossible to restore the previous level, even if the other party is Pokei City, which has risen strongly.
The higher-ups of Mejepoltan did not want to revert to the grandeur of that era, and it was enough for them to be able to return to the situation of dominating the larger maritime market.
It is also worth mentioning that Mejepoltan used to be a subordinate city of East Dolma, and it was so strong with the official support of the kingdom, but now, Mejepoltan has been separated from the direct management of East Dolma, and it can be said that it has become a family of its own, so East Dolma has long refused to help Mejepoltan. According to the Eastern Dolmars, if you don't want to accept our rule and let us point fingers, then you will not accept our support.
Of course, it certainly wouldn't be so straightforward, but that's the general idea, the Mejepoltans are not exaggerating, and it is not clear whether or not they distort the East Dolma's claim.

The news that Li Hong and his entourage had left Lanhai Village and began to set off for Meje Boltan soon reached the ears of the high-level officials, and the high-level officials began to prepare to greet them. When Li Hong and his entourage came to Meijiepoltan, the high-level leaders of Meijiepoltan were already waiting at the city gate, not to mention how grand it was, and there were only a few high-level people who greeted them, but the attitude was very clear.
"I've long heard that the young patriarch of Gloria is the dragon master among the people, and now it seems that he really deserves his reputation." The city lord Teze said to Li Hong and his party with a smiling face, "When I was your age, I was still working as a clerk by the docks. ”
"Mr. City Lord, right......" Li Hong didn't want to talk to these people for the time being, "When we came over, we met two ringing wolves, and it was a bit sad to solve them, let me rest for a long time, okay?" ”
