Chapter 42: Crazy Highway Plan

Ten minutes later, in a private room reopened by Riley in the restaurant, he couldn't help but be stunned after listening to the middle-aged man's self-introduction.

This middle-aged man who was interested in the highway was neither an insightful aristocratic official in the Candela Empire, nor was he a representative of a chamber of commerce in the Candela Empire that had received the news and smelled the benefits from the road paving, as Riley had suspected.

This guy is not from the Candela Empire at all!

"Nozdom Business UK?" Riley frowned, thinking about it for a long time, but he still couldn't remember where he had heard the name of the country.

It stands to reason that the name of this country is so special that you should have heard it once and left an impression.

"It's normal to have no impressions. The middle-aged man opened his mouth, showed a mouthful of white teeth and smiled: "Because it has been less than a year since the official establishment of the United Kingdom of Commerce in Nozdorm, and the kingdom is very small, it naturally will not attract the attention of many people, and it is also appropriate that there is no fame on this continent." ”

"It's been less than a year since the founding of the country?" Riley looked at the middle-aged man who called himself Gaza, puzzled. "Forgive me the presumption, this name of your country...... Does it mean anything?"

Gaza laughed: "The name actually says a qiē." We in the United Kingdom of Commerce in Nozdorm are not a kingdom in the traditional sense, but a union of thirteen chambers of commerce. ”

"Huh?" Riley was dumbfounded. "How is this possible?"

Gaza smiled and waved his hand: "Vice President Riley, the so-called state is really just a name for a power that can be dominated by territorial rights, autonomy and autonomy. Now we, the thirteen chambers of commerce, have joined forces to control enough land. and full autonomy and autonomy. There's nothing wrong with calling oneself a kingdom. ”

Riley stayed for a while. There are still some people who can't accept such a novel concept.

"You are a union of thirteen chambers of commerce, so who will lead you?"

"Our thirteen chambers of commerce have formed a joint meeting to discuss and make joint decisions on important foods within the kingdom. Every once in a while, we elect a person to be the Speaker of the United Kingdom Council, who is the nominal leader of the Kingdom, but no one Chamber of Commerce or one person has absolute dominance. Gaza replied with a smile.

Riley couldn't help but knock his head and thought for a moment, "Why do I think this pattern sounds familiar......"

"Of course you'll be familiar with it, because of this pattern. In fact, it is somewhat close to the current parliament of the Duchy of Stantin. ”

Riley was stunned: "Do you know the parliament of the Duchy of Stantin?"

The Duchy of Stantin is a small principality on the border of the continent, although the Duchy of Stantin has attracted great attention among several surrounding countries because of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, but it is extremely inconspicuous on the entire Sainz continent, and not too many people will pay attention to it at all.

And it is a bit strange that this Gaza even knows the parliamentary system of the Principality of Stantin, and shows a certain amount of understanding.

"Of course I know, because the system of joint councils in our Notzdorm business United Kingdom is in fact modelled on the parliamentary system of the Duchy of Statein. Speaking of which, I must express my sincere admiration to President Xu Yixu of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. The fact that he was able to come up with such a brand-new political model was like opening a whole new door for us. If it weren't for him. We, in the Nozdorm Business United Kingdom, probably won't show up at all. ”

Seeing Gaza's undisguised expression of appreciation, Riley was even more puzzled.

According to Gaza's self-introduction. Their commercial kingdom of Nozdorm bordered the southeastern border of the Kandela Empire, and the distance from the Duchy of Stantin was even more than 5,000 kilometers in a straight line.

Why did they know so much about the Duchy of Stantin and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which were five thousand kilometers away?

"This is not surprising. We are all businessmen, and we have better access to information than the average person. And when we notice the new flying chamber of commerce and start to collect the information of the new flying chamber of commerce, we will receive all kinds of information from the new flying chamber of commerce more frequently. Among the thirteen chambers of commerce, including our Warsaw Pact Chamber of Commerce, they all have great admiration for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, because the emergence and development of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is simply the greatest miracle. ”

"I don't disagree with that. Riley nodded. "The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is indeed a living miracle. But President Gaza, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with you coming to me to discuss the paving of roads, does it?"

Gaza smiled slightly: "You're embarrassed, when it comes to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, I can't help it." Cough...... Well, back to the highway thing. Vice President Riley, your Amrley Chamber of Commerce is undoubtedly the only one that can pave the entire highway completely, am I right?"

Riley smiled and said proudly, "That's right. Although there are many chambers of commerce that are trying to enter this field, there is no chamber of commerce that can complete the entire road on its own, except for our Amritri Chamber of Commerce. ”

"Isn't it okay for the New Flying Chamber of Commerce?" asked Gaza with a smile.

Riley looked stunned.

Although the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has never designed the field of road engineering, whether it is the main materials used by the Amritra Chamber of Commerce in paving roads, such as cement and steel bar, as well as the various types of engineering magic machinery used, etc., all come from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

With the frightening R&D strength of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, I am afraid that it only takes a period of R&D and practice to really be able to complete the paving of roads independently.

"This ...... Even if it is the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it cannot be compared with our Amrley Chamber of Commerce in terms of experience. Riley said. "So if you want to pave roads, looking to us at the Amrley Chamber of Commerce is the only and best option. ”

Gaza nodded, did not continue to dwell on the issue, and continued: "Then Vice President Riley, if I want your Amritri Chamber of Commerce to build a road that may be more than 5,000 kilometers long, are you confident that it will be completed?"

"What?" Riley glared. "More than 5,000 kilometers? Are you kidding?"

"No, I didn't mean to joke about it. "Gaza's expression is stern, and it really doesn't look like a joke. "From the Duchy of Stantin to our Nozdorm Business United Kingdom. The straight-line mileage on the map is close to 5,000 kilometers. If you want to build a road to connect. The maximum mileage, of course, will be more than 5,000 km. ”

Riley stared blankly at Gaza for a moment.

"This ...... You're right, but why would you want to build such a road? Do you know how terrible the total cost of such a road is?"

"Of course I do. Gaza smiled, his expression still determined. "Not only do I know, but we all know about the thirteen chambers of commerce in the United Kingdom of Nozdorm. However, this is the best way to provide the most convenient and direct connection between the United Kingdom of Commerce and the Duchy of Staten in Nozdorm. ”

Riley was a little speechless.

Gaza is right, but the idea is shocking.

How terrible is a road with a total mileage of more than 5,000 kilometers.

You must know that even the Lampari Kingdom, which currently has the largest total road mileage, all the roads in it add up. The total mileage is barely more than 50,000 kilometers.

It is an exaggeration that the first road built by the Nozdorm Commercial United Kingdom will break through 5,000 kilometers.

"Why do you have to connect to the Duchy of Stantin?" Riley was most puzzled by this question.

"Because the new flying chamber of commerce is in the principality of Stantin. Gaza's answer was short but powerful.

Riley was speechless again.

After a long time, it turned out that the purpose of building such a road in the Nozdorm Commercial United Kingdom was only to make it more convenient to get in touch with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

"Is the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce so attractive to you?" Riley couldn't help but ask.

Gaza glanced at Riley and smiled: "Vice President Riley, if you can't see the horror contained in the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, then I can only express my regret." ”

Riley could only be speechless again.

It has been more than five years since he first came into contact with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and now he is despised for not knowing the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. It's just funny.

After thinking about it, Riley gave up the idea of arguing with Gaza. Instead, he pondered it in his head, and then frowned.

"No, President Gaza. Even if you in the Nozdorm Commercial United Kingdom wanted to build such a road, it would be unrealistic. ”

"Oh? Why?"

"It's very simple, because according to the geographical location of the kingdom you described, there is no border with the Duchy of Stantin, and there is a huge Candela Empire and the Ruerson Kingdom in between. ”

Because of the reason for wanting to build a road on the entire Sainz continent, the Amrley Chamber of Commerce has a deep study of the geography of the entire continent, how could Riley, the vice president, not know about the problems in between.

"No, there are still roads to connect to. Gaza rummaged through his travel backpack and pulled out a rolled-up piece of parchment.

When I opened it, it was a map of the Sainz continent.

"Look here. "Gaza's hand was in the lower right corner of the Ruerson Kingdom in the lower left corner of the map, and then all the way west, drawing a crooked line at the bottom of the map near the Endless Sea, almost entirely along the coastline, all the way through the vast territory of the Candela Empire, and finally stopping somewhere in the lower right corner of the Candela Empire.

"This is where we in the United Kingdom of Nozdom are located, and you see, there is a narrow strip of land between here that the Candela Empire does not need, and we can use it to build a road. ”

Riley's gaze swept over the line, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

"President Gaza, with all due respect, this idea is crazy. If my geographical knowledge is any good, the line you drew is entirely on the hill on the coast. In other words, if you want to build such a road, you have to dig up all the mountains. ”

"Then chisel it. Gaza smiled.

"You're crazy!" Riley finally shouted. "Do you know how much it costs to open a road from the mountain? Tell you, the cost of an ordinary road is less than 5,000 gold coins per kilometer at most, but if you open a mountain and build a road, the cost will definitely exceed 10,000 gold coins, or even higher! If you want to build more than 5,000 kilometers, it will cost more than 50 million gold coins!"

Gaza smiled and pulled Riley to his seat.

"Don't worry, I'm not crazy. Of course, I must admit that the plan is crazy. But Vice President Riley, I didn't say when the road would be fixed, did I?"

Riley was stunned: "Then what do you mean by that?"

There was a hint of cunning in Gaza's smile.

"Actually...... I just wanted to express to the New Flying Chamber of Commerce our sincerity in seeking cooperation in the United Kingdom of Business in Nozdorm. ”

Riley froze.

He couldn't understand at all why the president of Gaza, or the Nozdorm Business United Kingdom he represented, valued the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce so much, even to the point of madness.

Is the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce really that important?(Want to know more exciting news about "Magic Industrial Empire"?Open WeChat now, click on the "+" sign in the upper right, select Add Friends to add the official account, search for "Qidianzhongwenwang", pay attention to the official account, and never miss every update!......)
