Although in the information obtained by Xu Yi, the old lord of Batru City, the old lord of Batlu City, and the lord of Lemart City, Count Will, expressed their support for Prince Eric's succession to the throne as clearly as they were, unlike Lemart City, which simply kept the convoy of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce out of the city, the convoy of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce did not encounter any obstacles all the way within the confines of Batlu City.

Xu Yi was originally worried about whether he would travel overnight to avoid sleeping in the wild if he was turned away from the city again, but now he didn't make a special deal when he saw Batru City, but he was relieved.

Perhaps, as he guessed, the little Earl Longli, who took over the title of earl and the position of the lord of the city, was still a little different from his father, the old Earl Longli, in terms of political position.

Towards dusk, the convoy finally drove into the city of Batrou.

Looking at the low and dilapidated city wall in front of him, and the rusty and dilapidated city gate that shook and squeaked when the wind blew, Xu Yi almost couldn't believe his eyes.

He has traveled to this world for more than six years, and he has also seen many cities in the kingdom of Lampari, and he thought that Bonta City was the most backward and old city among them, but the city of Batlu in front of him completely refreshed the lower limit in his heart.

Such a place that looks much more dilapidated than the first time Xu Yi saw Bonta City three years ago, and is so small that it can hardly be called a city, but should only be regarded as a castle, is Batrou City?

Xu Yi couldn't help but shake his head.

Although the poverty of the city is fully evident in the surrounding scenes along the way into the city of Batru, the main city, which represents the image of the entire city, is actually like this. But it still surprised him a little.

In the last six months. Because the new flying chamber of commerce began to implement an expansion strategy. Xu Yi has personally visited many cities in the Kingdom of Lampari, including poor cities, but no matter how poor those cities are, at least the main city will still be built quite well.

In any case, the poor are just ordinary commoners, and they have nothing to do with nobles like the city lord, right?

Thinking of this, Xu Yi felt a trace of respect in his heart for the deceased old Earl Longli.

From that point of view, he doesn't seem to be the kind of guy who sells his reputation. Rather, they should genuinely think about the civilians under their rule.

Of course, his choice to support His Royal Highness Prince Eric is really debatable.

The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the magic industry promoted are currently mainly concentrated in the southern region of the Lampari Kingdom, and there are still only a few chambers of commerce in the Northeast Province that are involved in the production of household magic machinery, as for the magic locomotive, which can also be regarded as the most high-end magic technology within the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it is extremely rare in the entire Northeast Province, and in a small city like Batlu City, it has naturally never appeared.

As a result, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, a convoy of more than twenty magic locomotives, had just approached the city gate, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Seeing the freight magic locomotive at the front of the queue slowly stopping in front of him, the city gate guard officer was dumbfounded, raised his head and looked at the monster-like magic locomotive in front of him. I couldn't speak for a long time.

Until Ankato jumped out of the car and walked in front of him. The guard officer reacted, swallowed and spat with difficulty, coughed vigorously, put on a posture, and shouted: "Hey, where did you come from the caravan? What are you doing in Batru City?"

Ankato smiled and handed over the caravan pass.

The guard officer glanced at him, his eyes widening in surprise.

"Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?" After glancing at the magic locomotives behind him, the guard officer suddenly realized. "That's right, apart from your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which Chamber of Commerce will have so many magic locomotives. ”

Ankato was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that the city gate guard officer in a poor and backward town like Batlu City actually knew about the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Immediately, a wave of pride surged in his heart, even this kind of person knew about the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which showed how famous the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was in the kingdom now.

"Yes, we are the New Flying Chamber of Commerce from Bunta City, preparing to transport goods to Thurwell City, passing through here, and want to stay here for one night tonight. Ankato explained.

"Oh......" The guard officer looked at the pass in his hand, then at Ankato and the convoy behind Ankato, and frowned: "It's okay to let you enter the city, but you have so many magic locomotives...... I'm afraid I won't be able to arrange it when I enter the city. ”

"Huh?" Ankato was stunned and observed the situation in the city through the city gate, and found that the road connecting the city gate was small and crowded, and the widest place was probably less than four meters wide, and the narrowest place was not even three meters.

Although it can barely accommodate the magic locomotive to pass guò, but on such a narrow road, the magic locomotive may not even be able to turn when driving in.

Moreover, this road is also the road that connects to the city gate, and it should be the most spacious road in the city, and even this road is so narrow, you can imagine what the other roads in the city should look like.

Seeing this ......situation, Ankato was also a little embarrassed, thought about it, and had to come to the middle of the convoy to ask Xu Yi.

Xu Yi was also wondering why Ankato had been negotiating with the city gate guard for so long at this time, and he was also a little stunned after hearing Ankato's explanation of the situation.

Although he had seen that this city of Batru was short and small, he did not expect the situation in the city to be so embarrassing.

"President, I think we'll just camp outside the city. "Kambiti yì said. "Anyway, it's already on the edge of the city, so there won't be any problems, right?"

Xu Yi thought about it and nodded: "It's okay." Ankato, go and inform the rest of the convoy, and say that they will camp outside the city tonight, but if you don't feel used to it, you can also choose to go into the city to find a hotel to rest, and the Chamber of Commerce will reimburse you. ”

Ankato left in response, Xu Yi muttered for a while, then got out of the car and walked to the city gate to find the guard officer to discuss.

Hearing that the convoy wanted to camp outside the city gates, the guard officer hesitated.

"I'm afraid that won't work...... If you stop outside the city, you will get in the way of other people......"

After knowing that Xu Yi was the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the tone of the guard officer's voice couldn't help but weaken a little, if someone else made this kind of request, I am afraid that he would have been blown away by him a long time ago.

"We'll pick a place that doesn't get in the way of other people, just give us an open space. Xu Yi patiently explained. "And just stay for one night, and leave tomorrow morning, I don't think it will get in the way. ”

Seeing that the guard officer was still hesitating, Xu Yi looked left and right, pulled the guard officer, turned sideways, turned his back to the others around him, took out a money bag from his arms and handed it over.

"This money is regarded as the entrance fee we pay to the city, but we don't enter the city, what do you think?"

The guard officer glanced at the money bag in Xu Yi's hand, and could see that the gold coins in this money bag were definitely far beyond the entrance fee they should have paid, so he couldn't help but swallow and spit at the mouth, looked left and right, snatched the money bag from Xu Yi's hand, coughed lightly, and said, "Okay, since you are really in difficulty, then I can't be too difficult for you." Go find an open space next to it and settle down, remember, you can't get in the way of others. ”

Xu Yi responded with a smile, and just turned to leave, but suddenly found that the expression on the guard officer's face changed drastically, and the expression of his eyebrows and smiles after getting the money bag just now instantly became as if he had seen a ghost, and he became extremely frightened.

"What's going on?" Xu Yi looked back in confusion, looking in the direction where the guard officer's eyes were wide-eyed, and saw a carriage rushing from the far side of the road, bringing smoke and dust billowing all the way.

"Wait!" Just as Xu Yi wondered why the guard officer saw this carriage as if he had seen a ghost, the guard officer suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Xu Yi's arm, stuffed the money bag that had not yet been put away directly into Xu Yi's arms, and shouted in a low voice: "Remember, I didn't say anything just now." ”

Xu Yi looked at the guard officer in amazement, but saw that the expression on his face changed rapidly again, but he put on a smile full of flattery, and greeted the carriage with a smile and the other city guards at the city gate.

Obviously, the people sitting in this carriage should be familiar to these city guards.

But Xu Yi's eyes swept over the carriage, but he found that this carriage was very ordinary no matter how he looked at it, and he couldn't see the slightest sense of nobility, so Xu Yi couldn't figure out who was sitting in this carriage, so that the guard officer would have such a drastic change before and after.

After a while, the carriage quickly crossed the dirt and gravel road with smoke and dust, but it ignored the city gate guards and a kind of city guards who came up, passed in front of them without any slowdown, and then stopped in front of Xu Yi with a creak.

Xu Yi frowned slightly, raised his right hand, and the magic power in his body flowed, using a flowing wind technique to disperse the large amount of smoke and dust brought by the carriage.

When the smoke and dust cleared, a middle-aged man who looked to be about forty years old jumped down from the carriage, grabbed Xu Yi's hands, and said excitedly: "President Xu, I finally caught up with you!"

Xu Yi looked at the middle-aged man in front of him in amazement, and found that his face was full of exhaustion, and the clothes on his body, which looked quite good, looked crumpled, but his spirit was extremely uplifted, and his eyes were full of joy.

"You are ......"

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. The middle-aged man straightened his expression, pointed to Batlu City behind Xu Yi and said, "President Xu, please allow me to introduce myself, I am the current city lord of Batlu City, Count Revere Longley." When we meet for the first time, I would like to ask President Xu to take care of me in the future. ”

Xu Yi looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who didn't show the slightest sense of nobility, and judging from the surprised attitude of the guards and city guards who came over, he judged that this middle-aged man should not be lying, he was indeed the Count of Little Longli, the lord of Batru City.

But what made Xu Yi very puzzled was that it was clear that Batru City should be the party that clearly supported His Royal Highness Prince Eric, why would he be so polite to him, the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?

Could it be ...... Xu Yi's previous idea has actually become a reality? (To be continued......)
