Chapter 73: The Backward Candela Empire

A large freight magic locomotive is speeding down one of the largest official roads in the southern provinces of the Candela Empire.

"Bang-"

The tires rolled over a pothole in the road, instantly shaking the entire body.

Nasus, who was driving a magic locomotive, had his butt upside down from his seat, and then fell heavily, and suddenly felt a pain coming from his buttocks, and couldn't help but complain: "What a broken road in this Candela Empire, so uneven." This trip down my ass was going to be turned in half. ”

Khafre, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked like he had long been used to it, and said with a smile: "Isn't your kid's ass not half or three?" Okay, don't complain, you will come here more times in the future, get used to it early." ”

"Do you keep running this kind of?" Nasus frowned and shook his head. "I said, uncle, you said that the Candela Empire is much richer than our Lampari Kingdom, why don't you want to build more roads? ”

"Can you think of this thing as rich?" Khafra glanced at his nephew, looked at the road ahead that was still full of potholes, and sighed helplessly: "Although the Candela Empire has money, they just refuse to build roads, so what can be done." ”

"That's not right, our small country like the Lampari Kingdom is now full of roads, and an empire as big as the Candela Empire would not know the benefits of roads, why not build them?"

"Then how do I know. Khafre let out a sneer from his nostrils. "Perhaps these noble lords of the Candela Empire like to ride their carriages and wander on the country roads. ”

Nasus muttered, continuing to drive the large freight magic locomotive forward.

Seeing that he stopped complaining, Nasus fell silent. Start thinking about your next trip.

Since the official signing of the agreement between the Candela Empire and the Kingdom of Lampari. Since the full opening of the domestic market to the Kingdom of Lampari. In the space of a month and a half, he had come to this vast empire for the fourth time.

Although the journey was hard every time, Tong Guò had already made a lot of money in a month and a half every time he transported goods from the Lampari Kingdom to the Candela Empire to sell this simple trade model.

This time, he also brought his nephew Nasus, not only because his nephew had obtained a driver's license from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce last year and was qualified to erect a large freight magic locomotive, but also because he wanted him to see the world and familiarize himself with how he did business here. so as to prepare him for the future to train him to be a right-hand man.

Regarding the affairs between the two countries of the Candela Empire and the Lampari Kingdom, of course he, an ordinary small businessman, did not understand, he only knew that after the Candela Empire opened its domestic market to the Lampari Kingdom, they could transport a lot of goods to the Candela Empire to sell, and the tariffs charged were much lower than before, so it was a very good business opportunity.

If there is no change in the agreement between the Candela Empire and the Lampari Kingdom, he is confident that he will make this trade bigger and stronger, far better than the ordinary small merchant he had stayed in the Lampari Kingdom before.

The only obstacle is probably when something might happen to the Candela Empire.

With such a large empire, there is only a little problem at random. It was enough to crush him, a small businessman, to pieces, and he was powerless to resist.

"I hope that Her Majesty the Queen will always maintain a good relationship with the Candela Empire......" thought of this. Khafra prayed sincerely in his heart.

"Hey, uncle......" At this moment, Nasus, who had been silent for a while, suddenly spoke again.

"Huh, what's wrong?"

"I've never been to the Candela Empire before, and I've always thought that such a big empire would definitely be much stronger than a small country like our Lampari Kingdom in many ways, but after coming here this time, I always felt ...... I always feel that the Candela Empire is much worse than our Lampari Kingdom in every way?"

Looking at Nasus's puzzled face, Khafra couldn't help but laugh, thinking that this kid really felt exactly the same as he had felt when he came to the Candela Empire these times.

"Tell me, what is it about you that the Candela Empire is inferior to our Lampari Kingdom?" Hafre asked deliberately.

"If nothing else, let's talk about the road in front of you. Nasus pointed to the road ahead and said unceremoniously: "It is said that this road leads to Laru, the third largest city in the central province of the Candela Empire, and if it is placed in our Lampari Kingdom, there will definitely be a very wide road." But look at the current road, not to mention the tattered, it is still too narrow to speak. I think this road can only allow two large freight magic locomotives to run side by side at most, and one more will not be able to pass. ”

"Well, the road break is indeed the biggest problem, and then what? is there anything else?" Hafra asked again.

"Something else? Have you forgotten when we were resting in Eve City? It's a small town, but there's only one restaurant in the whole city, that's too exaggerated! And it's all selling some kind of, and there's not even fresh meat, it's shabby. If it were our Lampari Kingdom, not to mention our Kalmar City, even if it was changed to a small city, at least we could eat meat casually. ”

"Why? You're not satisfied if you don't eat meat? Aren't you afraid that sooner or later your family will be poor?" said Khafre.

Now the pork in Kalmar City only sells for two silver coins a pound, and even if I eat a pound a day, I can't make my family poor. ”

"You kid forgot how hungry you were when you were a kid, didn't you?" Hafre gave him a blank look. "Don't forget, you have been able to eat meat so happily in the past two years, all because our Lampari Kingdom has a lot of food, so we can take out enough feed to raise pigs. It would be nice for the people on the Candela Empire's side to have enough food to feed themselves, how could there be so much spare to raise pigs. ”

"Really?" Nasus scratched his head. "It's too far worse than our Lampari kingdom anyway. And we went to the faucet after dinner to wash our hands, and by the way, we filled the car with some water, but there was no running water in the whole city of Eve, so I had to run to the old well to fetch water, which was really ......."

"What's wrong with letting you work out more?" Hafre laughed and shook his head. "You, you're completely used to the comfortable life of our Lampari Kingdom now, and you're not used to these backward ...... in the Candela Empire."

Khafre was stunned.

What did he just say?

Lag?

How naturally did he add an adjective like "backwardness" to the head of the Candela Empire?

This is one of the two great empires on the mainland!

This is the Candela Empire that people from other small countries on the continent can only look up to and envy from their hearts when they mention it!

But on second thought, Khafre felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

Compared to the Lampari Kingdom, after entering the Candela Empire, he did feel all kinds of inconveniences.

For example, the dilapidated roads, scarce food, and water supply facilities that need to rely on manpower that Nasus just said, and the magic mobile phone that he now carries in his arms but has no use at all, one qiē and one qiē, which shows a kind of backwardness.

That's right, it's backwardness.

Compared to the Lampari Kingdom, the Candela Empire was backward in many ways.

This is not a momentary delusion on his part, but a real fact.

"Uncle, what's wrong with you? Hearing that Khafre was suddenly gone, Nasus turned his head to look at him, and found that his uncle had a half-open mouth and a dull expression, and he couldn't help but wonder.

"Ah...... Ah, it's okay, it's nothing......"

Khafra waved his hand and signaled that he was fine.

However, when he regained his composure, a feeling of absurdity involuntarily arose in his mind.

The Candela Empire is more backward than the Lampari Kingdom?

It's an idea that would only make people laugh if it were placed in other countries on the continent, or even just in the Lampari kingdom just a few years ago.

Because it's a big joke.

As one of the two major empires on the mainland, the Kandela Empire will of course be far stronger than the Lampari Kingdom, a small country located in the southwest of the continent, in all aspects.

How could the word backward be used to describe the Candela Empire.

But this is an indisputable fact from Guò Khafre's own recent travels between the kingdom of Lampari and the Candela empire.

The Candela Empire is more backward than the Lampari Kingdom.

The corners of Hafre's mouth twitched, and his expression was strange, but there was a hint of joy and pride in his heart.

It turns out that unconsciously, the Lampari Kingdom has actually become so powerful?

In the past, when he faced the merchants of the Candela Empire, he always had a feeling of inferiority from the bottom of his heart.

And now after thinking about this, he suddenly found that he suddenly had a sense of superiority in his heart.

What qualifications do these merchants of the Candela Empire have to put on a show in front of them, they are just a bun of dirt buns who have never seen the world!

The thought made Khafra instantly feel in a good mood and couldn't help but laugh.

Hearing Khafre's sudden laughter, Nasus inexplicably turned his head to look at him, and found that the smile on his face was extremely happy, and the laughter was also refreshing, which showed that the mood was indeed very happy.

Nasus couldn't help but wonder in his heart.

What the hell is wrong with my uncle? Obviously he was just discussing where the Candela Empire was more inconvenient, why did Uncle suddenly let out such a weird laugh when he thought about it?

Could it be that this topic reminded my uncle of something strange?

But even if Nasus wanted to break his scalp, he didn't understand this.

He shook his head and stared straight ahead, concentrating on continuing to drive the large freight molocomotive, speeding towards the silhouette of the city that appeared at the far end of the horizon. (To be continued......)
