Volume 6 Chapter 103 - Ambiguous stance (1/2)

The endless seas were at their calmest during the early spring. It was just like this today, the seas were calm and it was weather that was very suited for sailing

A fleet with seven large transport Magic Ships and twenty guard ships were quickly sailing through the southern seas of the Rudson Kingdom.

This large fleet was the second transport fleet of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, Other than the first fleet that Narvil personally commanded, it was the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s largest fleet, mainly being responsible for transporting the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s goods to the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom.

The departure of the second fleet this time had sent out twenty large transport Magic Ships. Other than transporting goods to the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom, they were also transporting a large amount of construction material, as well as three hundred and forty workers from the Amrit Chamber of Commerce.

The Frestech Chamber of Commerce had signed a new contract with the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom at the end of last year. The Frestech Chamber of Commerce would invest in constructing a magic machine production base in the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom.

The main function of this magic machine production base was to make various agricultural magic machines and construction magic machines locally. They would work with the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom and the surrounding three kingdoms to renovate their farmland, while also helping them rebuild their irrigation system.

The three hundred and forty Amrit Chamber of Commerce workers sent there, other than building this magic machine production base, was to continue building roads in the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom.

The Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom had finished two roads in their country before and when they realized the benefits that these roads brought, there was a strong desire to build more. So this time they had asked for nine roads, which would span over a total of one thousand and eight hundred kilometers.

For a country that was only twice as large as the Stantine Duchy, if they could build these nine roads, although it would be as much as the Stantine Duchy and the Lampuri Kingdom, it would be enough to link all their cities. It would definitely greatly improve the traffic condition in the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom.

Because the terrain in the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom was complicated and there were many swamps covering it, the nine roads would take a year of planning alone and they could only slowly build them.

Moreover, these nine roads were over a thousand and eight hundred kilometers in a place like the Lampuri Kingdom or the Rudson Kingdom which mainly had grasslands would cost around two to two and half million gold coins. But in the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom, the Amrit Chamber of Commerce had given a high price of four million gold coins.

However, even at such a high valuation, the Nozdormu Business Union had agreed without any hesitation. They didn’t even bargain with the Amrit Chamber of Commerce on this price.

This made Xu Yi feel emotional about the fact that the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom was a country made from thirteen companies coming together, they really were rich and they had a deep determination and boldness.

When he went to the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom to talk to chairman Gaza, chairman Gaza had frankly stated that the goal of the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom was to gather all the weak countries in the southeast corner of the continent together. They would become a power that could even match the Candra Empire.

This ambition was nothing less than big.

But Xu Yi was happy to see him succeed.

After all, the greater the ambition, the greater the need, which would make it easier for the Frestech Chamber of Commerce to make sales.

The cargo in the large transport Magic Ships of the second transport fleet were one of the necessary goods to complete the ambition of the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom.

But before completing this task, the second transport fleet had another important task to complete.

When a giant island appeared on the horizon, the second fleet changed their direction and headed towards that island.

This island seemed only a bit bigger, but was still a common island on these endless seas. However, once they approached it, they found that this island had wharves at the harbour on the north side and there were buildings that were made of cement. It was clear that there were people living here.

When they came even closer, they could see that whether it was on the harbour or the buildings on the island, they had the same flag.

If it was someone from the southwest corner of the Sines Continent, they could tell with a single glance that the design on these flags represented the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.

That’s right, this island was one of the sixteen island bases that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had finished developing on the endless seas. There was now a small Frestech Chamber of Commerce base on this island that was completely controlled by them.

But this harbour that should only have the Frestech Chamber of Commerce ships currently had ten large wooden ships with the flag of the Candra Empire on it. Outside the harbour, there were over fifty Candra Empire navy warships also waiting there.

If he wasn’t prepared to see this, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s second fleet commander Tom Markin would have thought that the Candra Empire navy was besieging the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s island.

But after seeing this, Tom Markin acted like normal and gave the order to his subordinates to dock, without giving any other orders.

After around twenty minutes, the second fleet came near the island. Other than a single large transport Magic Ship that went to dock, the other ships all stayed on the seas with the Candra Empire navy’s warships, being only a hundred meters apart.

When Tom Markin came off the large transport Magic Ship, there were several middle aged men who were wearing the uniform of the Candra Empire navy that was standing in front of him.

“General Osborne, to make you come all the way here, it really has been hard on you.” Tom Markin immediately came forward with a smile.

The military officer that led the others was clear the Candra Empire’s second fleet’s vice commander Reno Osborne. Seeing Tom Markin coming over, he reached his hand out to shake his.

“Manager Markin, the ships?”
