MTL - Magic Tower Starry Sky-Chapter 1360 port azores
【The starry sky of the magic tower】【】
Since offering the five strategies, the Empress Saint Alegria seems to have forgotten about this matter, and has not responded for a long time. Lin didn't urge the other party, but just carried out various preparations for the bank in the Karlsruhe Empire.
After all, the matter is of great importance, and it is really not that easy to decide. And according to my own experience before and after time travel, no matter how good an outsider's idea is, the one who is advised usually chooses to 'maintain the status quo' and not make any changes. It sounds daunting, but it's the reality. Change is not an easy decision for one person.
Although the empress's affairs have not yet been decided on how to act, there is no need to delay the gold coin goddess' banking affairs. The other nobles didn't want to 'trouble' a human magician at all, even though they were mostly working with the sixteen elves.
However, there are not so many taboos in the territory directly under the empress, and it is better to arrange for someone to go out in person to coordinate many pre-work. Such as regional wealth status survey, site survey and so on.
In fact, Lin wanted to integrate the data in the hands of the goblin Luca, combine his own information processing skills, and use programming languages to sort out an information system that can be updated by the goblins in real time and translate the goblin words in real time.
However, Luka did not intend to hand over his only ability that was relied on, for fear that he would be marginalized or even kicked out of sight. It's like many masters in my hometown are afraid of teaching apprentices and starving the master to death.
Since the only thing he is interested in is that the things in the hands of the goblin Luka have no possibility of getting involved, Lin can only find other things to do instead of letting himself do nothing. It is a choice to enter the palace and be tired of being around the empress all day long. Anyway, it is very simple to get the name of a counselor or jester and make yourself a reasonable follower.
However, considering that the situation of the palace will only get worse, not better, once entering the Marquis Gate, a certain person who is afraid of trouble subconsciously rejects entering such a place. If the central government couldn't stay, it ran to the local area. And the only place to go is the only sub-lord territory of the Empress, the Earl of Azores.
Speaking of which, the royal children of the Karlsruhe Empire are quite miserable. Having royal blood does not mean that he has an iron rice bowl. It depends on whether he can be divided or inherit a territory before he can have a fixed income. Other than that, she was raised by her parents, being a royal rice bug.
If you want to entrust or be allowed to inherit the territory, you must have meritorious service. Otherwise, no matter how large or small the royal territory is, it may be taken back by the emperor. After all, the territory is limited, and one piece of entrustment is less than one piece. Every emperor is very cautious about entrusting the children of the royal family. Children of the royal family who have territories and titles will of course try their best to keep them for their own children.
Ko Nuo, who was the princess at the time, did not wait until she ended her career as an adventurer. After returning to the Imperial City of Neuquen, she immediately went to the Plain of Oz to strive for the first meritorious service in her life. And the result, in the ears of the subjects of the empire, was like a counterattack in life, reaching the peak all the way. As for the before and after events, the bitterness in it is not enough for outsiders to understand.
Also because of the great contribution made on the Plain of Oz by relying on the Ship-Slaying Knife, Her Royal Highness the princess almost never visited her earldom in person, so she threw herself into the succession drama of the Imperial City of Neuquen. So this territory is still quite unfamiliar to the Empress.

In fact, this is also the normal state of most royal children and their fiefs. It's better, send your cronies to manage the territory, and stay in the imperial city to count and spend money. Almost, the emperor sent his cronies to manage the territory, and while I stayed in the imperial city counting and spending money, I also had to worry about when the territory would be taken back by the emperor.
Sir Geb, the acting consul of the Earl of Azores, belongs to the 'Emperor', not the confidante of Princess Kono. After that one came to the throne, because of the Jazz's consistent neutral position, it was logical for him to continue to manage it. Who told the Empress that she didn't have enough trustworthy manpower, so she had to make do with it.
Sir Gebe does not have the publicity of a young man, and his performance has always been stable. But this does not mean that Jazz is a stubborn old school, but this middle-aged man with two curled beards clearly understands that the greatest credit for working under the current empress is not to make mistakes.
A new thing like a bank has almost become the darling of fans in less than a year. No matter where they are, they are trying to contact the goddess of gold coins, hoping to get permission to build a bank.
Travelers who are away from home no longer pick and choose the coins they receive, or accept bad money aggrievedly, as in the past. There may be a discounted amount in use, but these people are quite welcoming of these mixed coins. They are even willing to take the initiative to use Keyin coins and exchange them with people they meet during the journey until all the Keyin coins in their hands are exchanged.
This is because the Goddess of Gold Coins can only withdraw money at a specific place. Otherwise, if you just use new money to buy old money, someone will take advantage of the early days when the bank has not spread all over the land to exchange the money in everyone's hands for a round.
But all of this did not resonate so much within the Karlsruhe Empire. Because the empire itself can mint fine money, its value is no less than that of Ke Yin coin, or even worse.
It's just that the imperial fine money is not so durable, and it can be bent with a little force, and it will be deformed when rubbed hard. It's not unheard of for the portrait of the empress to be directly rubbed into a meatloaf face. ... Seriously, there seem to be quite a few shortcomings.
Now, with the consent of Her Majesty the Empress, the Earl of Azores is preparing to establish a bank. Of course, Sir Gebe had no objection, and various preparations were carried out according to the standard. Lin's job is to inspect the progress and make corresponding arrangements.
Don't think that the Earl of Azores belongs entirely to Her Majesty the Empress. As long as she makes a decision on what to do, no one else has the room to comment. But for things like building a house, as long as you don't use magic materials to build it, you can use magic to simplify the project and speed up the process, you have to do it anyway, and you can't omit a single step. Unless you want to build a tofu building.
So someone is kind of like the overseer of the scene. Live in the earl's mansion, anyway, the empress agreed, and this mansion has not welcomed its serious owner for a long time. Although Sir Gebe also lived there, all the rooms used by the master were sealed up, and only servants were arranged to clean them every day. Jazz himself lived in the entourage's room, while Lin lived in the guest room.
In addition to wandering to the construction site to take a look during the day, someone spends other time visiting the Port of Azores.

【The starry sky of the magic tower】【】
With the strength of an Earl's territory, it is actually not enough to establish a gathering place of the level of a 'city', but the Port of Azores is a very prosperous port city. The development of this place is due to its superior geographical location and terrain, which naturally gathers people and money.
The Earl's castle was built on a cliff on the seashore. The castle is small in size and ordinary in shape. The most important building is a tower, and it's not just a magic tower, but a magic tower with the function of a lighthouse. With the convenience of the energy pool of the magic tower, the light of the lighthouse will not go out all year round.
Under the cliff is a crescent-shaped fjord, and there are reefs extending out of the sea mouth, leaving only a small gap, forming a natural sheltered deep-water port with a big belly and a narrow mouth. In the fjord, not only the waves are extremely small, but also has a very good ability to withstand storms. Even if it is hit by a hurricane in summer, as long as the boat can be fixed properly, the damage is lower than that of other coastal cities.
There is a unique high-quality port, and there are no regulations such as banning the sea. If the city cannot develop, it must be a man-made disaster. Fortunately, the County of Azores did not encounter similar problems. Because successive emperors have regarded this place as a treasure and have been cared for, of course no one can be allowed to mess around here.
In return, the Port of Azores also provided generous taxes, offshore resources, and exotic treasures from Dragon Island.
Speaking of which, the Earl of Azores fell into the hands of the then princess Kono, but there were some twists and turns. Logically speaking, this kind of territory, which all the nobles are jealous of, must be firmly in the hands of the emperor himself, let alone assigned to a collateral descendant~www.novelbuddy.com~ But the former empress has passed away. Among the secondary titles belonging to the royal family, titles such as duke and marquis have also been taken up. And those powerful heirs who occupied the title and were once the emperor's throne are tirelessly self-destructing. Therefore, when a princess made great contributions and was waiting for the title to be granted, the title of Earl of Azores was sealed away as soon as the nobles in the empire operated.
At that time, it was not that no one in the royal family objected, but considering that everyone's reputation and credit were almost ruined, the objection had no effect. Therefore, with the strong operation and support of the nobles, the princess Ko Nuo found a bargain.
In terms of territorial area, the Earl of Azores is relatively small at the level of the Earl's territory. But in terms of population and financial resources, it can be raised a few levels up, coupled with the sense of superiority that has always belonged directly to the emperor, it makes the people living in this port feel proud. And these are reflected in the impression of the city.
Homo sapiens of all colors are walking on the streets with vigor and harmony, and there is no unreasonable contempt or hostility between them. Occasionally, when they meet acquaintances, they will greet them warmly.
What is especially special is that there are no street children or beggars on the streets here. Occasionally, children who ran wild passed by in groups of three or four, and they were also children from nearby people. This is an amazing thing for Midi.
In other cities, no matter how prosperous they are, there are still filthy places that cannot be seen. The waifs or beggars would be concentrated in such places, but during the day they would appear in other bright places. Sometimes it is to do some menial work, and sometimes it is really malicious. However, Port Azores does not seem to have these dirty places and marginalized people in society.
