With the end of the Demon Calamity, the capital of Beit gradually returned to normal.

Most of the city's residents have returned to their previous lives.

Only the sailors and dock workers in the original port area had to temporarily build shacks because of the severe damage to their houses.

However, fortunately, the climate in Beit is mild, and the time of year is the hottest time of the year around the Opat Festival, so there is no risk of freezing and frustration.

By far the biggest challenge facing cities is the availability of food.

As a seaport city, Beit was largely imported.

At this time, because the grain in the grain-producing areas south of Medici was not yet ripe, Beit could only obtain grain from overseas colonies.

Many of the overseas enclaves of the Medici Empire, including the archipelago territory, have a large number of grain ships sailing to Beit at this time of year.

For those local businessmen, this can be regarded as a fixed income every year, and no one will give it up easily.

However, the fjords of Beit City are now cordoned off and will not be opened until the demonic flesh is decontaminated.

Outside the fjord, though, the Pharaoh sent his Praetorian Guard to forcibly occupy some of the smuggling docks and expand them.

However, since most of the piers are located near the tidal flats, except for a few small sampans, ships with a deep draft cannot dock at all.

Those grain ships that come from overseas with grain can only rely on small sampans to slowly unload the grain ashore - not only the transportation efficiency is low, but heavy rain may fall at any time during this time, and the grain that cannot be unloaded from the ship is also at risk of being caught in the rain.

At the same time, due to the prosperity of trade in the past, most of the residents of Beit did not have the habit of storing grain. The decrease in food imports has caused food prices in the city to rise, and the city residents have complained bitterly.

Naturally, the ruler of Beit City was also very anxious.

"Pasha the Dragon," said one of the Pharaoh's attendants, who hurried into Quis's apartment, and when he entered, he saw a guest in a brown burqa also standing in the hall, "It turns out that the Commander of the Wind has also arrived." ”

"My lord, the Pharaoh has sent me to ask you if you need any material help. We ......"

"Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, I have just demonstrated the highest level purification effect of the 'Purification Water Pump' model machine to the envoy of the Great Vishur," as he spoke, Quith picked up a glass of clear water and handed it to the attendant, "The pure water you get can even be drunk directly." ”

Out of loyalty to the Pharaoh, and respect for the Pasha in front of him, the attendant took the cup and carefully sipped his saliva.

Although the water in the cup is purified, it still has a salty taste, but it is not unpalatable.

"This must be the worst drink I've ever drunk," the attendant carefully assessed, "but the polluted seawater, purified and even drinkable, does not cause too much damage to health, as the dragon Pasha said." ”

You know, before deciding that the polluted waters had to be purified, there had been extensive discussions among the officials and nobles of Beit City.

One of them suggested that instead of the time-consuming and laborious effort of purifying the seawater, it would be better for the Great Veishur to disperse the ice wall barrier, relying on the natural purification power of the sea to allow a large amount of seawater to pour into the fjord to replace the polluted water.

However, the experiment that the dragon Pasha did on the spot made everyone dispel this idea:

He collected a tank of water contaminated with Hemtar's flesh and blood, and put some sea creatures into it on the spot, causing them to become demonic, and the black-robed mage present dissected the demonic sea creatures, and found that their bodily fluids were still contaminated.

In other words, if these polluted waters are allowed to flow out of the fjord, there is a high risk that the pollution will spread throughout the ocean. Every sea, every country, will be surrounded by countless demonic creatures, and just thinking about it can make people's scalps tingle.

As a result, all the people in power in Bait voted collectively to pass a resolution to do everything in their power to purify the sea contaminated by demonic flesh.

The Pharaoh even personally ordered to solicit purification plans from all the casters of the Medici, and promised "100,000 silver Kate" as a reward.

Needless to say, with Sneid, a legendary mage who has studied worm demons for more than three hundred years, the Scales of the Eternal Order naturally easily won this high bounty with the "Purification Water Pump".

At present, all the Beit people, including ordinary city residents, are paying attention to when the "purification water pump" will be put into use every day.

"Your Excellency Pasha, I have to admit that the effectiveness of your chamber's 'purifying water pump' is indeed very amazing," the attendant first affirmed, and then continued, "but...... The water in the fjord doesn't seem to need to be so thoroughly purified. ”

Quest knew what he was trying to say, "You're right, if you want to purify the drinking process, the 'purification pump' needs to be desalted, distilled, and other processes after cleaning the seawater contaminated with demonic flesh. It does affect the efficiency of its fundamental function. ”

"That ......"

“...... Of course, we don't want to use this product to purify the sea water in the fjord," the young blue dragon patiently explained, after all, although the rank of the attendant officer is not high, he represents the pharaoh, "In fact, the engineering model 'purification water pump', which takes the 'purification' function to the extreme, has been assembled today and will be put into use soon." ”

He then preached to the attendant that he would "be prepared for danger in times of peace", "guard against the slightest", and "be careful to make a ship of ten thousand years", prompting him to take away a "purifying water pump" with more advanced functions and go to the Pharaoh to pay tribute to him.

"You're trying to promote this product in Byth?" said the Captain of the Wind who had been watching Quest's marketing and publicity, and after the Pharaoh's attendants left, he also got up to take his leave, and before leaving, he joked with a smile, "Can I buy one?"

"Of course," the young blue dragon who turned into a human form turned his head and showed a harmless smile, "but you don't need to buy it, the first batch of household 'purification water pumps' will be given to every family who is willing and able to afford the 'purification materials' for free." ”

Although he was a shrewd businessman, he was not a gifted businessman like Santos, and the Warlord was bewitched by Quith's words and left his apartment full of doubts.

After dealing with the work of meeting guests, Quest tidied up his clothes, used advanced teleportation techniques, and calmly came to the busy dock construction site.

Santos, the fat merchant, and Sneijder, the half-lich, had been waiting for him for a long time.
