Magic Industry Empire - 1173. Chapter 1173

That’s right, Xu Yi may really have no desire for totalitarianism. Perhaps he really just hopes to change the lives of everyone on the entire continent through the magic industry, as he said. Perhaps he really does not intend to replace the two empires. perhaps……

But this is at best a speculation made by other people regarding his actions. No one is sure that he really intends to do so, let alone that he will keep this idea forever.

In case he suddenly changes his mind and is willing to come to gain greater power, who can stop him?

As the emperor of the Candela Empire, of course, it is impossible to pin all hopes on Xu Yi’s personal will, and even more hope to be able to control it in his own hands.

So it doesn’t matter whether Xu Yiyuan is willing to do what everyone is worried about, what matters is whether he has the ability to do so.

As long as he has the ability, then other people, especially those who stand on the top of power like His Majesty Candela, will not be able to feel at ease.

However, there is no alternative.

After ten years of development, the New Flying Merchants Association’s strength is even more powerful than ten years ago. The New Flying Merchants Association’s escort has expanded to more than 100,000 people, including 17 maritime fleets and 13 A fleet of magic airships.

With no one knows the specific situation, but it is definitely at the top of the military magic machinery, the combat effectiveness of the new flying chamber of commerce guards can still absolutely crush other countries in the mainland.

Therefore, no matter how uneasy His Majesty Emperor Candela is, he still has nothing to do with Xin Fei Shanghui and Xu Yi for the time being.

With the current military strength of the Candela Empire, it may be able to continue to maintain an advantage over other countries on the mainland, but it is still powerless in the face of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.

“Your Majesty, I think… this question is actually not worth considering for the time being.” Grand Duke Galbut pondered for a moment and said: “What Xu Yi chooses is actually not very different for us. And I don’t. I think his thoughts will suddenly change, not to mention that the goal he chooses now is only the Kuranyi Kingdom. If he really has such an idea, there is no need to waste this time, right?”

His Majesty the Emperor Candela sighed for a long time, and slowly shook his head, throwing away the chaotic thoughts caused by this news.

Indeed, no matter what Xu Yi wants to do, he has no ability to change for the time being, so the most important thing now is not to control what Xu Yi does, but to find a way to do his own thing.

“Grand Duke, the people of the Lampari Kingdom have arrived in the Troll Valley. Take the time to go there in person and convey what I mean.”

“Yes.”

“In addition, with regard to the investment budget for the Troll Valley next year, I plan to increase it by 30%. What do you think?” His Majesty Candela asked again.

“Thirty percent?” Grand Duke Galbut frowned. “Your Majesty, our investment in the Troll Valley last year exceeded 70 million gold coins. If we add another 30%, wouldn’t it be close to 100 million gold coins? This amount… I am worried that there will be opinions from the Parliament and the Ministry of Finance. ”

His Majesty Emperor Candela waved his hand and snorted: “According to the statistics reported by the Department of Finance, the empire’s annual fiscal revenue this year may exceed 600 million gold coins. What’s the big deal with investing a mere 100 million gold coins on such an important matter. Don’t they understand? If there is no such thing as the backing, the empire, no matter how brilliant it is now, is just an empty shelf, and it may be overthrown at any time?”

The Grand Duke of Garbut gave a wry smile, knowing exactly what the Emperor’s words were referring to.

From the perspective of the empire, His Majesty the Emperor is right, otherwise he, the prime minister of the empire, the empire parliament, the empire Senate, and the empire’s Ministry of Finance would not have so unanimously agreed to promote this matter over the years. Continuously improve capital and human investment.

“Well, I will discuss with the council and discuss the specific number. As for the Troll Valley…I have time in four days, I will go to see them. Your Majesty, do you have anything to explain? ”

His Majesty Emperor Candela shook his head: “There is no special explanation, you only need to appear on my behalf.”

“I see.”

After the two discussed some policies of the Candela Empire, the Grand Duke of Garbout retired.

After walking out of the gate of the palace, the Grand Duke of Garbut took on an elongated pure black magic sedan that looked luxurious at first glance, but did not go to the imperial parliament, but drove slowly in the direction outside the west gate of Wimbledon. .

Today is the eighth anniversary of the completion of Wimbledon’s No. 1 Steel Plant, and it is also the day when the No. 1 Steel Plant’s 10 million tons of finished steel will be produced.

On this commemorative day, the No. 1 Steelmaking Plant specially invited the Grand Duke of Garbut, who had presided over the completion and commissioning of the No. 1 Steelmaking Plant, to participate, and he was pleased to agree.

Now that it has been a while since he was summoned by His Majesty the Emperor, I am afraid that the people at the No. 1 Steelmaking Plant have been waiting for a long time.

Thinking of this, the Grand Duke Galbut ordered the driver to speed up as much as possible.

However, it was 10 am in the morning. It was a busy time in Wimbledon. There was traffic everywhere on the road. No matter how superb the driver’s driving skills were, he couldn’t leap the traffic flow and could only continue to slowly follow the traffic flow.

Looking at the crowded streets outside, the Grand Duke of Garbut frowned, thinking that the imperial parliament had been discussing since last year, and the issue of rebuilding Wimbledon should be accelerated.

With the continuous creation of industrial areas around Wimbledon, Wimbledon has now absorbed a large number of foreigners. In addition, due to the continuous increase in food production within the empire during the past decade, coupled with the stability of the situation, the birth rate has soared, which has caused The population of Wimbledon now has more than tripled from a decade ago.

In this case, Wimbledon, which is already a bit crowded, is even more overwhelmed.

So as early as a few years ago, a proposal to rebuild Wimbledon had already emerged from within the empire, and some even boldly proposed that it would be better to rebuild a new city.

In comparison, the Grand Duke of Garbut prefers the latter proposal.

Because the transformation of the old city is not only huge and extremely difficult, but the effect is also very bad, and it is difficult to solve the current problems.

On the contrary, if it is to rebuild a new city, it may seem exaggerated at first, and the investment is huge, but in actual calculation, the investment will not be much more than the transformation of the old city.

Moreover, rebuilding a new city has a very big advantage, that is, it can be re-planned so that it can meet various needs, which is much more convenient than rebuilding the old city.

You know, with the continuous development of the magic industry, the lifestyles of people on the mainland have already undergone tremendous changes. The old city of Wimbledon, which was founded hundreds of years ago, has long been unable to keep up with the situation, and even It has been denounced by countless people as completely behind the times.

To give a simple example, when Wimbledon was first created, although it had been made as large as possible, the streets in the city were set aside to accommodate at least six carriages running side by side, and they were counted on the entire Sainz continent. Very spacious.

But now in Wimbledon, privately purchased magic cars are everywhere. If you run on the street, you can see brand new magic cars speeding everywhere.

Coupled with the city bus system in Wimbledon, the streets in the old city appear very narrow, which is not conducive to smooth traffic.

The Grand Duke of Garbut suffered a lot because of this. Even if he was classified as the Prime Minister and Grand Duke of the Empire, he would often encounter traffic jams.

Because of this, many nobles and wealthy civilians in Wimbledon moved to live outside the city, just to avoid the congestion and various inconveniences in the city.

If a new city is built, this situation can be avoided in the initial planning, and it can naturally solve many of the problems that now plague countless people.

And the construction of a new city that meets the new requirements. As early as more than 20 years ago, the New Flying Merchants Association had done experiments in Bangta City. After that, the New Flying Merchants Association simply built a brand new new aircraft in the Principality of Stantin. The city has almost become the model of the modern city on the mainland.

There is such a precedent, it is not particularly difficult for Wimbledon to build a brand new city.

At least the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and the Amli Chamber of Commerce have made it clear that they can provide technical and personnel support to the Candela Empire, and even the Amli Chamber of Commerce has expressed to the Imperial Council that it is willing to contract the construction of Wimbledon New City. Only the Candela Empire is required. Just provide the funds and don’t care about anything else.

Of course, it is impossible for the imperial assembly to agree, so now the empire is currently in contact with the Amli Chamber of Commerce and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce while planning matters related to the construction of the new city on its own.

In this matter, the Grand Duke of Garbut, as the Prime Minister of the Empire, clearly indicated to the Empire Council his support for the construction of the new city and asked the Council to give a solution as soon as possible.

The parliament and the Ministry of Finance are in a state of stalemate because it is difficult to give a definitive plan in a short time due to financial and technical issues.

Now that the Grand Duke of Garbut looks at the congestion around him, he naturally hopes that the Amli Chamber of Commerce and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce can make concessions as soon as possible, so that the construction plan of Wimbledon New City can start war early and this problem can also be resolved earlier.

Of course, there is another solution, which is to move all the imperial institutions that were originally established in Wimbledon, and even the palace. Then they don’t need to go to the institutions and palaces. Forced to be congested in Wimbledon.

It’s a pity that it’s easy to move various institutions and facilities, and it’s almost wishful thinking to move away from the palace.

The Candela Empire Palace was established at the beginning of the Candela Empire, and it has a history of nearly a thousand years.

Such a palace of great historical and symbolic significance, His Majesty the Emperor would never move it, let alone move it away directly.

Thinking of this, Grand Duke Garbut looked at the scene outside the car window and couldn’t help but sighed slightly.

Although this ancient empire is strong because of its ancient times, it is also decayed because of its ancient times, and it always restrains people’s footsteps in various places.
