Chapter 342: The Queen of Carriages and Horses
On the evening of the second day after the battle, outside the eastern walls of Pyramid City, a convoy of trucks snaked like a long dragon from the other side of the distant sand dunes. www.biquge.info The gorgeous palace carriage that stopped at the gate of the city like a Cinderella fairy tale was obviously the dragon's head.
Driven by a handsome young man dressed as a butler in a tuxedo, carrying a European-style rappier named Duff Revos.
Without waiting for the guards guarding the city gate to stop him, Duff took the initiative to stop the luxury carriage. Immediately, he rolled out of the driver's seat, came to the side of the car and opened the door.
The girl in the middle of the carriage then cast a glance at Duff, then got up and walked to the door, stepping on the ladder and going down, while holding out her left hand, while her right hand was holding a lilac skirt.
"Watch out for the lady. ”
Duff carefully propped the gorgeous man down to the ground.
The girl is full of aristocratic temperament, arrogant and invincible, but she is by no means a daughter who relies on her family background. Her real identity is that of Cato Rhine Banlashuka, a large merchant who controls the circulation of goods based in the city's "twelveth rate", nicknamed the "Queen of Carriages and Horses".
Her arrogance stems from her painstaking position, and her invincibility stems from a business talent that few people in the world can match. The proof of this is the long line of the carriage behind her, and the name "Queen of Carriages and Horses" is well deserved.
"It's really miserable. Looking up at the crumbling eastern walls of the city of the pyramids, which were still standing, Cato Rhein commented lightly.
"Hmm. Duff nodded in agreement, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth, "And there is no automatic repair, that is, as Miss Gollenville's paper says, this game is one step closer to reality, and the construction industry must develop further in the future." The foresight of the young lady is admirable. ”
"Oh hehehe!"
Katolein laughed without modesty, hiding his face with his hands. Half of the goods carried by the convoy she brought were aid materials requisitioned by the Hatsuha Kingdom from the other eight regions of the nine regions of the continent, and the remaining half were building materials.
If the largest city in the Mirage Desert, the strongest fortress, and the Pyramid City are all in this way, it is not difficult to imagine what the towns and villages that have fallen to Anubis will look like.
The first step in the revival of the desert people is to rebuild villages and towns, and there are huge business opportunities here.
However, just seeing this, it is still a mouse's eye. It's just that if you see this, Cato Rhine will never send this wealth that takes advantage of people's danger.
What she wants to earn is not the money of the desert people, but the money of the future continental kingdom that will be born.
The main battlefield of this battle with Anubis is naturally the desert and the city of Pyramids, but the flames of war are not only burning here. To the east of the "Eternal Night Forest Marsh" and to the west of the "Ha Ha Ha Ka", these two places are also fierce battle zones, and a large amount of supplies are consumed every day.
Entrusted by the Hatsuba Kingdom, it is none other than Katolein Banrashka, the "Queen of Carriages and Horses", who is responsible for collecting supplies from various districts and transporting them to the front line.
Then, on behalf of the Hatsuha Kingdom, she traveled through the districts, and she also had the most direct contact with the powerful and probed her feet on the side. The conclusion is that the continental kingdom is not a fantasy but something that can be realized.
Before talking about regional interests and Antai, there is one factor that already plays a decisive role.
No matter how artificial intelligence the NPCs are, even if they have independent personalities, they will still be affected by the system settings. It is not known what the system is up to, but the tendency to unify the nine regions of the continent under the kingdom created by the player is extremely obvious.
And once the unified government is formed, it will certainly pay for the reconstruction of the three war-torn regions. She earns this money with peace of mind.
Of course, Cato Rhein didn't intend to pounce on it like a red-eyed wolf staring at its prey, that would be too tasteless. She wants to finish the deal with grace and reserve.
In other words, has it been a bit long since I was hanging here?
Cato Rhein frowned and looked in the direction of the city gates.
The two guards guarding the gate were not the original staff of the pyramid, but people who had gathered here from a small village with their superiors. They had not seen much of the world, and had already been stunned by the spectacle before them, and by the man of Catolrhine Banrashka.
However, even so, rudeness is still rudeness.
Cato Rhein strode through the carriage with Duff into the gatehouse, stopped in front of two stunned guards, and slammed the brick floor with the root of his right heel.
"Smack!"
The two garrisons finally came to their senses, and immediately heard the coquettishness of the lioness.
"You two impudent people!"
"Yes!" The sudden and confident scolding made the two of them not care about the fact that they were being scolded, and immediately straightened up and replied loudly as if they had seen the chief.
Immediately, they noticed that something was wrong, but before they could react, Cattolein's second sentence came to their senses.
"As a man, as a noble warrior, what is the reason for leaving a lady in the cold wind of the evening for three minutes and twenty seconds!"
"Ugh!"
"Three Points, Twenty ......"
"Shut up!
"Yes! I'm very sorry!" the two of them were completely overwhelmed by the swaggering girl's momentum.
"Hmm. Cato Rhein nodded in satisfaction.
"Enough is enough, Miss Banrashuka. You don't want to be seen as a more terrible woman than Anubis. ”
A rather majestic voice rang out, and it turned out to be this man, Richard Alphonse. This is not surprising, and naturally it is not surprising, Catolein has already informed him.
"It's been a long time since I saw you, Your Excellency the President of the Early Leaf. With that, Catulain made a skirt salute, and Duff behind her nodded.
"Hmm. It's been a hard time for you these days, Miss Banrashuka. I'm sorry, can you please keep your convoy in front of the city gate for a while? How to hand over the supplies, or wait for us to go to the lord's place together, and the three of us will arrange it together. ”
"I refuse!" Kartorhine's answer made Richard stunned, "this matter is already a matter of foregone conclusion, I have no interest, just let Duff take charge." Where's Nane Hinata compared to that? I remember you said she's back. ”
"I arrived at noon, and I'm attending a celebration at a restaurant called Hermin......"
Before Richard could finish speaking, Cato Rhein turned to look at one of the two garrisons.
"Do you know this restaurant?"
"I guess I know. ”
"Then be honored to lead the way for me!"
The garrison looked at Richard in embarrassment, who smiled and nodded at him.
"I see, please come this way!" said the garrison, and the garrison took a step towards the city.
"Duff, I'll leave it to you. After an explanation, Cato Rhein was a little impatient to follow the garrison who led the way.
Looking at her back from behind, Duff took a few steps forward to Richard and nodded slightly, "I beg your pardon, Miss Hinata is an important friend to Miss." ”
"Don't worry, I can understand, then the handover will bother you. That one...... Mr Duff?"
"Duff Revos is willing to serve you, our King. ”
