Chapter 50 The Town of Ampreston

The small town of Ampreston is located in the southwest corner of the Principality of Miranda, adjacent to the Principality of Luton to the south, and surrounded by the Kingdom of Lampari to the west and north.

A spacious river flows through the center of the town and extends eastward.

This river is called the Sandy River in the Kingdom of Lampari, and the Mirando River in the Principality of Mirando.

The reason why it was called this is because there is only such a wide river in the Principality of Mirando that is more than 50 meters wide and can be called spacious.

Apart from this river, there is no difference between the small town of Ampreston and other small towns in the Principality of Miranda, they are all the same peaceful and ordinary.

Such a small town of Ampreston has existed on this continent for hundreds of years. No matter how the continent changes, no one will be interested in such a featureless and extremely barren town.

The people in the small town of Ampreston also think that they will repeat the \no\wrong\ .()().days as they have done for hundreds of years until they die .

However, after entering the second half of 3783 in the mainland calendar, the tranquility of the town was suddenly broken.

First, on a certain day, dozens of large ships floated down from the upper reaches of the Mirando River. The logo on the boat showed that they were from the Kingdom of Lampari, but the big men who jumped off the boat had strange looks, except for some human beings who spoke the accent of Bangta City of the Kingdom of Lampari not far upstream. A ferocious-looking orc man!

However, to the amazement of the people in the small town of Ampreston, these big orcs didn't seem to come to this oily town to do some bad things such as burning, killing and looting, but after getting off the boat. He actually worked honestly under the command of those humans.

But after observing for a while. People found out again. These orcs are not like the legendary orc slaves.

Because the humans on the fleet didn't have much restraint on these orcs, they treated them like ordinary humans, there was no difference.

After a long time, when the people in the town moved their surprised eyes away from the big men of the orc tribe, they discovered another thing that surprised them.

Before they knew it, a large-scale wharf was built beside the Mirando River outside the town!

And not far from the pier, a huge building was also built. It is fully half higher than the top of the tallest church in the town. Everyone is amazed by these buildings.

They couldn't understand at all why these Lampari people would suddenly come to their humble town to build such a large-scale wharf, and a building that didn't know what to use.

Although those people were always accompanied by the mayor personally when they were building the pier and the building, and occasionally a big man who was said to be the earl came to check, proving that these things they did were approved by the principality, but People in the town are still extremely disturbed.

It's just that this anxiety didn't last for too long. It didn't take long for the people in the town to discover that these people had brought them a lot of benefits.

The human and orc men who disembarked from the fleet add up to a hundred people. Although they moved a lot of incomprehensible messy supplies from the ship, they didn't prepare any food and clothing supplies. So if you want to solve these problems, you will naturally have to come to the town.

And these big men seem to be very wealthy, and their spending is extremely generous. If you find a meal at any one, you can buy a few silver coins, which is worth several times the value of the materials used for the meal.

And apart from eating, these big guys work hard, and what they love most is drinking a good meal at night.

Although the wine brewed by the people in the small town of Ampreston is not delicious, these big men, especially the big men of the orc race, never refuse to come and drink it.

He was so addicted to drinking that he might even throw out a gold coin.

After just one or two months, the people in the town were surprised to find that because of the arrival of this mysterious fleet, they had actually gained a lot of unexpected income.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. After building the pier and the unknown building, these big guys left the town.

It's just that people haven't been disappointed for a few days, but another group of strong human beings with hundreds of them came to this town again.

These big men did not come from the Mirando River, but ran over from the ground on a strange-looking thing they called a magic locomotive.

After arriving in the town and settling down, the group of big men began to beat the ground around the town.

According to them, they are preparing to build a road.

highway?

The town of Ampreston borders the Kingdom of Lampari, and I have heard of this thing that is said to be everywhere in the Kingdom of Lampari, but why did this group of people suddenly come here to repair the road?

However, the answer to this question is not important to the people in the small town. What is important is that because of the arrival of these people, the board and lodging business in the small town has become prosperous again.

Some well-informed businessmen even opened a new restaurant on the edge of the town near the pier after hearing about these people's follow-up actions, providing food and beverage services for these people.

Another few months passed, and there were three more roads outside the town.

One of them goes all the way to the west, extending directly to the Kingdom of Lampari.

The other one is all the way to the east, and it is said that it will eventually connect to the capital of the principality, Mirando.

As for the last one, it went south into the Kingdom of Luerson strangely, and it was unknown where it would eventually lead.

After the road and the wharf were successfully built, it seemed as if a large number of people flooded into the town overnight.

A lot of strange-looking iron machines were transported into the strange building that had been built before, and then the town office suddenly posted a notice announcing that the city would recruit a group of workers in the town.

Seeing the salary and treatment given on the notice, the gate of that peculiar building was almost squeezed by the swarming crowd.

Why do you say?

nonsense! A month's salary is a full ten gold coins! And it includes a meal at noon! There are even extra rewards every holiday!

Such a good job, why don't you rush to grab it?

finally. This one comes from the Kingdom of Lampari. It seems that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which is well-known in the Lampari Kingdom, has recruited a hundred workers from the small town. Enter that peculiar building not too far from the pier... oh no, that rare earth smelting factory.

As for the rest who have not been recruited, don't be too disappointed. According to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, they will open several magic machinery factories here in the future, and they will need to recruit a large number of workers.

According to the chubby middle-aged man who came to recruit workers, he can even guarantee that everyone in the small town of Ampreston will have a good job in a short time. Not only can you not worry about food and clothing in the future, but you can also enjoy a much more comfortable life.

Few people doubted his words, because for the people in the small town, they had no right to be cheated at all.

Now, everyone is looking forward to the end of winter with all their hearts.

Because the vice president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce said that it will be convenient to start construction after spring comes and the weather gets warmer.

The people in the town seem to have seen countless wonderful job opportunities beckoning to them.

At this time, naturally no one will notice. Every once in a while, the rare earth smelting factory will ship out batches of goods. Either load it onto a ship parked at the dock, or onto a large cargo magic locomotive.

But the final direction is all the way to the west, entering the Kingdom of Lampari.

While everyone was immersed in the fantasy of tomorrow, another boat came from the upper Mirando River and stopped at the pier.

At the same time, an unremarkable carriage drove into the town from the east and stopped at the gate of the town office.

The Bucarus magician got out of the carriage, and the mayor of Ampreston Town, Baron Lofik, immediately greeted him.

"Dear Lord Bucarus, President Xu hasn't arrived yet, why don't you go in and wait for him for a while? A lot of words"

"No need, I'll just wait here." The Bucarus magician waved his hand and stood at the gate of the town office, staring at the entrance of the town with his neck raised, looking expectant.

"This...Your Excellency Bucarus, you are standing here...too eye-catching, I think Chairman Xu might not like this." Baron Lowefick reminded in a low voice.

"Oh? Oh... that's right." The Bucarus magician came to his senses, thought for a while, then turned and walked towards the town office.

Baron Lowefick exhaled lightly, and hurriedly followed.

Halfway through, the Bucarus magician suddenly thought that he remembered something, turned his head and nodded to Baron Lofik, and said with approval: "Baron Lofik, based on what I saw outside just now, Ann The town of Princeton has really changed a lot now. I find that the people in the town are much better than before, and they have obviously become a lot richer. When I walk on the road, I always smell tempting meat delicious."

Baron Lowefick laughed loudly: "That's true. Now our Ampreston is much stronger than before. But this is all thanks to you, the magician Bucarus. If it weren't for you, the new flying The Chamber of Commerce is here, and our town will never become what it is now."

"Then you should thank Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and President Xu, thank me for what?" Bucarus magician waved his hand, paused, and suddenly said in a slightly low tone: "But I heard... Baron Lowefick, you have made many unreasonable demands on the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the past six months, and because of this, you have asked for at least five bribes from the local person in charge of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?"

Baron Lofik's expression changed drastically, and he shook his head forcefully: "How is that possible! The Grand Duke and Earl Plimpton have told me countless times that they should try their best to meet the requirements of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. How could I make things difficult for them?"

"Really? But this is what Earl Plimpton mentioned to me before I set off. I hope he didn't listen to the rumors, right? A lot of words," the Bukeles magician said quietly.

Countless cold sweat oozes from Baron Lofik's forehead. He was about to open his mouth, but was interrupted by a long laugh from the door.

"My lord Earl must have made a mistake. Our Chamber of Commerce and Your Excellency the Baron are very happy to cooperate. How could such a thing happen?"

Baron Lowefick instantly felt as refreshed as if he drank a bowl of hot soup in the winter. He turned around and looked at Xu Yi who was striding in from the door, and greeted him gratefully.
