v2 Chapter 73: Urban public transportation system (1/2)
When the first leaves that were yellowed by the season were blown down by the autumn wind, the road leading to the city of Kalmar in Bangta City was finally announced.
Unlike the rainy highway, this road connecting Bangta City and Kalmar City is the first truly intercity highway on the mainland of Sainz.
The completion of this road can completely represent the road traffic on the mainland of Sainz. It has since entered a new era, and has got rid of the situation that can only be bumped on the rugged roads covered with mud and stones. From then on, you can enjoy the cement. The various concrete pavements bring convenience and speed.
For the Kingdom of Lampari, this is also a very path of symbolism and practical significance, so this time not only the Count of Sama, the Lord of the City, personally presided over the completion ceremony of the road, and His Royal Highness Princess Annes also represented the presence of His Majesty the King.
In addition to watching the lively crowds of ordinary people in Bangta City, various chambers of commerce and industry in the city also sent representatives to the scene.
For these chambers of commerce, the most important thing is to explore the true attitude of the kingdom's high-levels to the highway from His Royal Highness and Count Satsuma.
Although Earl Satsuma publicly expressed support for the construction of roads in many newspapers, for the general public, His Majesty never expressed a clear attitude.
Although it does not show a clear attitude, it can be regarded as a kind of secret support, but if you don't say it, everyone still has some heart.
After all, after the completion of this road, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is going to build a toll station on the road to collect tolls.
What kind of attitude the King has placed on this point is the focus of many chambers of commerce.
So at the ceremony. The representatives of the major chambers of commerce, although apparently listening to the eloquent speeches of the Earl of Samo, have been secretly focused on the seat of His Royal Highness Servini standing behind the Earl of Samo.
As for this time standing next to the palace of the king. Xu Yi, who is talking with the royal girl under the hippie smile, is naturally envious of the heart.
However, they did not think of it anyway. At this time, the topic discussed by His Royal Highness and Xu Yi was a matter of no importance at all.
”Mr. Xu, I am deeply sorry for your ability to take a name.” Servin looked at Xu Yi, who was smiling and relaxed. Some helplessly said: ”This road is so significant, you are so lazy, you take it.” The simple name of 'Bonka Highway' is simply... it is a waste of everyone's feelings!”
Xu also shrugged. ”It's just a name. It's a big deal. Let's say how simple and straight the Bangka Highway is. I understand that this road connects Bangtar City and Kalmar City.”
”But this is the first real road in the Kingdom of Lampari. Can you spend a little thought on a good name?” Servini said with anger.
Xu Yi’s face doesn’t matter: “Isn’t this necessary? Anyway, this kind of thing is used to make people go home. What is the name is just a code name. I didn’t call it 001 national road is not bad...”
Sevigny could only helplessly shake his head and give Xu a white eye.
At the beginning, when he was in contact with Xu, Servini was able to maintain his majesty and restraint as a prince. However, with the number of contacts, she now finds that in the face of Xu Yi, her mentality has become more and more relaxed, and she has lost more and more of her calm and rational mentality, which is easily valued. The reaction also caused mood swings.
”Forget it. This is a road that your new Feishang will pay for repairs. I am willing to call you the freedom of this president. I can't control it.” Servini sighed and decided not to entangle on this issue. ”But there is a problem. I hope you can respect my opinion.”
”What problem?” Xu asked curiously.
”Although the father agreed to your proposal, I will allow you to invest in the construction of the new airline. You will be allowed to build a toll station on the road to collect the toll, but you don't think. The amount of the toll you set. Is it too high?”
Xu also frowned slightly: ”His Royal Highness, I remember when we originally specified the toll standard, I informed the King of the Kings in advance through the Earl of Satsuma. Why do you still accuse us of being too expensive? A carriage only accepts fifty silver coins. I don't feel high at all.”
There was a distressed look on Servini’s face. He paused and sighed softly: “Mr. Xu, in fact, this is also the meaning of the father. This road is mainly for the service of ordinary civilians in the kingdom, specifically In order to serve the people in the cities of Bangta City and Kalmar City, the toll collection fee is already very low, and the price is still so high, it should be too bad.”
