Chapter 1844 Trouble?


    Taking the face towel handed over to him Tacho patted his sweaty forehead in agreement. "Our priority will be to get the ball rolling, before the students and others start moving between both empires." So here was the checklist of things to do: Start assembling, renovating and revamping a special and grand official Port for travel, that will also act as a post office, storing all cargo until someone collects them, or sending letters between both empires, or even with other Allu empires.


    Yup. Tacho has spent quite some time here, and already had a basic understanding of how the ports operate when it came to mail or cargo delivery and storage. Did you know that Baymard delivered cargo and mail to all Treaty-signed empires? Take for example, that you are in Ten Pyno, but you want to send a letter or cargo to Zalipnia in Romain. This won''t be an issue. Once submitted in any of the post office branches or in the port, it then goes to Baymard first, before getting sent out, arriving at the port. All cargo and letters stop at ports when they arrive. So only when sending mail, can one utilize the branch offices. From what Amrous, Tacho and the others knew, more and more business owners and nobles have started building estates or renting homes within the same coastal cities or towns Baymard''s ports are located. Yes, there has been a lot of migration happening during these past few years, with everyone having 3rd and even 5th homes there. Peasants also migrate to these coastal territories in search of better jobs, because the pay there is slightly higher than the rest. Being a cab driver there pays very well, due to the poption increase and the constant need of transportation of goods and cargo. Traffic security, street sweepers, sanitation officers (garbage men), gardeners, construction workers, farmers, ship repairers, cooks, cleaners, statue sculptures, road workers, waiters, teachers, and another whole list of professions, were all needed there on a constant basis. The minimum wage here has also gone up over the years, and many people now live even morefortably than before. It was hard to imagine that just a few years ago, the streets were filled with dirty people who had boils all over their faces, wearing beggar attire day in, day out. But now, the same people advocate cleanliness, especially when working at several restaurants and sites that wish to get 2 star reviews. Even on the streets, people try to look their very best because they''ve now learned that first impressions matter. Do you know that some people, particrly, some little boys, mimicked the newspaper boys in Baymard to make a profession? Yes! They sold newspapers that were already many months old that came straight from Baymard. "Extra! Extra! Read all about it!~... Is he a man, a myth, or a legend? Extra, extra! The Water Killer has finally been caught!" These young boys went about selling newspapers in this fashion, getting more and more people buying them like hot cakes. Don''t underestimate the number of merchants and visitors that arrive in these coastal cities and towns on a daily basis. On top of that, many assassin guilds and information homes, go out in search of these newspapers, no matter how long they are. Because information is what their careers rely on. Suddenly, people found they had be entrepreneurs just like that. The death rate dropped significantly, has less and less people died from starvation and hunger. Can you believe that winter had passed, but many didn''t truly feel it? On such a cold day, some people truly specialized in selling hot tea and coffee on their designated street corners. They bought coffee pods and other items from Baymard, and used battery powered, electric kettles to boil water. Of course, they offered tea, coffee, cookies, and biscuits. One can see many of such street store businesses out and about now. ''Mirvanna should take a few pages out of their books,'' Tacho wisely thought. (?~?)

    After the treaty was signed between Mirvanna and Baymard, Landon immediately threw them into the barracks to see what their people would experience once admitted in. Tacho spent 3 weeks 5 days there, and could say with all honesty that it waspletely worth it. Discipline was one of the biggest lessons he learned from his short time there. Truth be told, he was already missing his time there dearly. Sure, his start in the barracks was rough, but it wasall worth it. It also brought him and his Mirvpanions even closer than before. It seems like they had gone through hell and were reborn from the ashes. On top of that, they also made new friends from different ces. There was Wismo and his buddies, a group of towering men who hailed from Omania. They were what people called Giants. Indeed, the Mirvs were also shocked by their heights and strong bodies. There were also some blue toned people from Zohl, some dark skinned people from Romain, and even more friends from Pyno they met. Hey~... The conversations in the barracks were really entertaining, and everyone was actively striving forward to grow stronger. They also took ethic sses, standard CPR and first aid sses, and so on. After their training, they finally said goodbye to time in the barracks and began traveling across Pyno to see how the other empires there looked like. And boy were they surprised. They had to admit that although it wasn''t as orderly and tidy as Baymard, you can still see how much effort the people actively put in trying to move forward. They also spoke to people there, who described their lives in the past to be difficult, especially those rules under Alec'' Barn.


    All this made them understand that change was possible, if they put their minds to it. Thus, without even saying a word, Bilthozar had already asked Amrous and several others toe up with several detailed ns On making Mirvanna a better ce. … A few minutester, Landon and the Mirvs rounded up their discussions about the newly formed Mirv-Baymardian rtionship and their ns going forward. In 2 weeks, they leave. There was still a lot that must be done before their departure. With that, Landon headed back to his office to continue working on several documents his heartless secretaries left for him. But just after stepping in, his phone began ringing in an endless loop. Who was it? Landon picked it up calmly, and ced it by his ears. Only... it was not what he expected to hear. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    [Your majesty, we have a situation]


    BOOM!


    The words that exploded in Landon''s ears made his entire body stiffen. Time to get busy.
