Chapter 779: The Old Looks Changed to the New (Ask for Recommendation Tickets!Ask for Monthly Tickets!)

The contract was signed very smoothly.

After learning about the strength of the Scales Chamber of Commerce of Eternal Order, and at the same time receiving compensation from the Chamber of Commerce - the guarantee of rebuilding Emerald Wood City, and with the mentality that it would be a great waste to use power when it expires, Green stamped the seal of the Ramsay Alliance on the contract.

A few days later, the makeshift alliance came to naught. Ramsay's human city-states have reverted to the old ways of containing each other, competing with each other, and occasionally starting local wars.

However, the contract was continued to be recognized.

Some cities in the south do not have fallen zones, they will not pay substantial losses, and there is no need to offend the powerful Scales of Eternal Order Chamber of Commerce at all. The largest fallen area in the north was Soft Maple City, which had long since been reduced to rubble, and even their mayor had been killed by the pygmy god priest for some unknown reason (becoming a fallen fishman).

Therefore, the Chamber's initiative to take over the land in the occupied areas has not been hindered by any official obstacles. Only a few wealthy merchants and landlords who originally lived in Soft Maple City felt that their interests had been violated and wanted to regain all the rights and interests of the land.

Of course, they weren't arrogant enough to dare to argue with the Scales of the Eternal Order. These people fled with a lot of "gem coins", which they wanted to use to redeem all the land they had owned.

However, the Scales of Eternal Order Chamber of Commerce rejected their trade demands. The "gem coins" made of glass had no purchasing power at all. It was just a hoax invented by the gnomes of Dwarf Island to control the Ramsay financial system.

Some wealthy merchants were so angry that they used their "gem coins" to gather some mercenaries in the south. They naively believed that the area of the occupied area controlled by the Chamber of Commerce was too large to notice their sneaky armed occupation of a small piece of land.

However, these people just have to put their ideas into action. Then they, along with the mercenaries they hired, will eventually appear in the labor camp dedicated to cleaning up the ruins of Soft Maple City. When they die, their souls will also be cast into soul prisms.

Thanks to the high efficiency of the labor camp and the joint efforts of the camel and polar bear element shamans, the ruins of Soft Maple City were cleaned up in less than half a year. Three years later, a new trading city appeared in Ramsay.

The city was named "King's Landing", and it was like a giant beast entrenched in the northernmost part of the Ramsay continent. The interior of the city is neatly planned, with only two urban areas: the industrial area and the port trade area.

It belongs only to the Scales of the Eternal Order. The races that work and do business in the city all live outside the city where the environment is better. A few years ago, Green led the Ramsay Confederate Army in a razor-shaped formation against the upwind hill where the "Returning to the Nest" monster army had been built, and now several towns and villages have been built to house residents of different races.

Two parallel railroad tracks connect these towns and villages, and several steam barges run each morning and late afternoon to transport residents to and from work or to King's Landing for trading.

Ordinary people only need to buy a monthly pass, and they can take this means of transportation for a month to commute at will. The cost of buying this kind of monthly card can be easily earned as long as you go to the city to work for one day.

In addition to King's Landing, Ramsay's eastern and western coastlines were also heavily scattered and small in the area of Fall during the reign of the Emperor's monster army. The Scales of Eternal Order took over these "enclaves" one by one, and built a unified harbor as a link.

The larger "enclaves" were soon upgraded to towns, for which the Chamber of Commerce financed the establishment of a road system. If there were bandits who dared to rob on these roads, those people would soon be arrested. Although the clean-up of the ruins of Soft Maple City has been completed, the Chamber of Commerce's galleys still require a large number of oarsmen to work as labor. Those bandits will give their all to the order of the Scales of Eternal Order.

The smaller "enclaves", which were originally coastal fishing villages, did not make much changes when planning them. If the residents who had fled returned to the fishing village, the Chamber of Commerce allowed them to return to their homes as long as they were willing to pay the appropriate fishing tax. In fact, the Chamber of Commerce levied about half the tax compared to the lords who ruled the fishing villages. And because the Scales of the Eternal Order has a large business and a large number of refrigerated transport vessels, fishermen are allowed to pay taxes with their catches.

You know, this was completely impossible before. Because there are no refrigerated carriers, the catch can only be circulated in a small area, so it will not sell for much at all. Now the fishermen's incomes have increased a lot, but the taxes they have to pay have been reduced a lot. Gone are the days of starvation, and there is some surplus money to spend from house to house.

Many of the smaller chambers of commerce in the nearby city-states even extended their trade to these places, and while they could only receive vouchers from the Scales of Eternal Order for their goods, those vouchers could be collected to buy more in King's Landing and some of the larger towns. Ship those goods to other city-states and make a round trip, and you can make a lot of profits!

For those small chambers of commerce, the Scales of Eternal Order Chamber of Commerce did not restrict them, and even consciously contributed to them, the purpose of which was to promote the full circulation of goods and vouchers in the Ramsay plane.

It's like dialysis. Those small chambers of commerce are like blood vessels, and all the blood that originally circulated in them was the currency controlled by the gnomes. Now, the circulation in these veins is gradually being replaced by vouchers from the Scales of the Eternal Order.

Wealth is moving, and in the face of huge interests, there will be some businessmen who choose to take risks. Of course, they didn't dare to attack the towns and cities tightly controlled by the Scales of the Eternal Order, and those people had their eyes on the small "enclave" fishing villages.

Some large chambers of commerce began to infiltrate the fishing villages, and they wanted to buy and sell by supporting strong agents in the local area, so as to accumulate more vouchers, and then monopolize some certain goods through these vouchers to make huge profits.

There are also some more ambitious, or more daring guys, who are actually playing those voucher ideas. They even hired many alchemists in an attempt to crack the anti-counterfeiting system of vouchers in order to make a large number of such vouchers for profit.

It's just that, after all, this is a world where spells exist, and those vouchers are a contract in themselves. Each voucher issued in Ramsay is a contract written by the Contract Demon using his natural abilities. At the slightest violation of the trading principles, the vouchers will be automatically destroyed and a curse will be imposed on those who violate the rules.

These curses do no harm to those people, the only effect is that they are very difficult to remove, and anyone can easily see the "Unbeliever" mark on that person's head with the use of a special lens.

They will be tracked down and apprehended by the Scales of the Eternal Order, and if they dare to escape, they will be punished with punishments including, but not limited to, the recovery of fines, the destruction of their bodies, and the casting of their souls into soul prisms.

All in all, any individual or group that wants to destroy the new order that the Scales of Eternal Order has built will be severely punished. No matter what power that person had among the Ramsay humans, the scales of the Eternal Order would not tolerate it.
