Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

Chapter 250: Ingrid Asks for Directions, Greedy Business Federation

New Kazdel, Landship Port.

A group of Sarkaz warriors wearing uniform uniforms and holding standard weapons are stationed at various entrances and exits of the port, prohibiting anyone from entering the port.

Another group of Sarkaz warriors led their war beasts to patrol and inspect the interior of the port, even the sewers were not spared, to prevent dangerous contraband from being placed in the port.

Such as dangerous Originium explosives and ambushing assassins.

This port is the venue for the opening ceremony of the founding ceremony. On the day of the opening ceremony, tens of thousands of people, diplomatic corps from various countries and government officials will gather at the port, so the safety of the venue must be guaranteed.

The hundreds of meters long land ships were neatly docked in the dock. Several large-caliber naval guns standing on the upper deck, as well as other large and small naval guns, showed that they were not common commercial land ships.

If the Duke of Windermere were here, he would certainly be able to recognize the landspeeder from its shape.

This was a high-speed battleship that once belonged to Victoria, but it has now been captured by Kazdel and its weapon system has been modified.

On the opening day, high-speed battleships will be used as a showcase of Kazdel's military strength, along with conventional ground combat troops.

The most important aerospace battleship will be left for last, appearing as a ground-breaking heavy aerial weapon for Terra's military.

In fact, as Duke Windermere commented, Kazdel's strength is concentrated in a few individuals.

In terms of the military alone, Ursus's army group could easily defeat the new military force of Kazdel. And Ursus had eight such army groups.

In a national emergency, each army group can be increased to tens of millions of people. There is only one army of 80 million people in this land.

Without resorting to unconventional forces, it is estimated that no country can directly confront Ursus's 80 million troops.

Kazdel still has a long way to go in developing its military power.

......

"Hey, Williams, has the application you submitted for the opening ceremony been approved?" Two gray-haired Ruperts were walking one after the other on the noisy street.

Rupert, who was in front, heard the question from his companion behind him, sighed softly, and slowed down his pace.

"Haha...it seems you are the same as me." From the expression on Williams' face, his companions realized that he was not selected either, and they laughed at him mercilessly.

"I was selected, but I had a day off that day and didn't want to get up early." Williams changed the lost look on his face and proudly showed off to his companions.

"Damn, why? We clearly submitted the application together." The companion clenched his fist angrily and hit Williams on the shoulder.

"I don't know, maybe I'm just lucky." Williams shrugged and said lightly.

"I want to see it too. Why don't you let me see it and take your vacation."

"It's useless. You need to verify your identity to enter."

“Let me see if I can sneak in…” The companion gritted his teeth. Before he came to settle in Kazdel, he was a member of a Syracuse family, but unfortunately the family had been destroyed long ago.

"If you get caught, you'll lose three months' subsidy for healing potions," Williams kindly reminded.

According to the current laws in Kazdel, infected people can apply to the Medical Department for subsidies for mineral disease medicine and purchase limited quantities of medicine at a lower price.

If the law is violated, the subsidy will be cancelled and the product will be purchased at the original price.

The original price of the medicine is a big burden for people like my companion who spend money lavishly.

"Then remember to take a video." The companion faced the reality and his big gray tail drooped down.

"Don't worry, the authorities will record it. You can buy a DV camera and watch it slowly." Williams patted his companion on the shoulder and comforted him softly.

"Then I have to save money. I guess I have to go to the tavern less often this month. Back then, when I was in Syracuse, I couldn't live without wine..."

Just as his companion was about to brag about his wonderful past again, a handsome blonde Wolper woman in a black leather jacket passed by, leading a little Wolper girl with nine tails behind her.

Hearing someone say the word "Syracuse", Ingrid, who was taking little Lisa to find the hospital, turned around and looked at the two Rupert men who were standing straight and looking nervous.

"They are strangers I have never seen before. They don't have any family emblems on them, and they don't have any weapons or smell of blood. They should not be killers sent by the family." Ingrid quickly glanced at the two people, and her hand that was touching the hilt of the knife slowly dropped.

"Gentlemen, I brought my daughter to Kazdel to treat oripathy. Do you know which district the medical institution is located in?" Ingrid asked the two people who looked like locals for directions.

"My beautiful lady, we also need to go buy some medicine. I'll take you there."

Williams only thought that Ingrid was a cool and heroic woman, but her former family members and companions had already smelled the blood on Ingrid.

The keen intuition he developed from years of wandering between life and death reminded him that the Wolper woman in front of him was dangerous.

"Then thank you both for your help." Ingrid nodded slightly, gave up her seat and motioned for the two to walk in front.

"Thank you, uncle." Little Lisa bowed to the two men to express her gratitude. She carried a basket of tails on her back, which attracted many surprised glances from passers-by.

"That little girl's smile is like a ray of light, so cute. It makes me want to find a wife to live with..." Williams thought to himself, not noticing the ruffled tail of his companion beside him.

......

"Mr. Roy, on my way here, I found that there are a lot of infrastructures still under construction in Kazdel. I don't know if you need any help. The Business Federation has shares in many large construction companies..."

The representative of the Casimir Chamber of Commerce, dressed in a suit and tie, with a formal smile on his face, sat upright opposite Roy.

As a businessman, he has a keen sense of smell and always puts profit first in everything he does.

Racial prejudice and historical issues are not worth mentioning in the face of interests.

"Mr. Jesse, Kazdel is indeed having some trouble with infrastructure. I'm glad that the Business Federation is willing to help, but what do you want?"

Roy crossed his hands, leaned on the table, and looked directly at Representative Jesse across from him.

"...Since Mr. Roy is so straightforward, I won't beat around the bush. The Business Federation has always been very concerned about the increasing number of infected people in this land.

"I hope to take this opportunity to reach a cooperation with Kazdel in the production of medicines, and promote the medicines on a large scale so that all infected people can receive treatment."

Representative Jesse's tone was sincere, as if the business association he represented really cared about the living conditions of the infected people.

"Then what kind of sincerity can you show?" Roy tapped the table with his fingers, pretending to be considering it.

When Representative Jesse saw that there was a chance, he immediately took out the medium-sincerity portion of the agreement that he had prepared long ago.

This is a test. If Roy signs it, the Business Federation can earn a little more. If it is rejected, then they will take out the one with the highest sincerity.

Roy just took a quick look at it and threw the agreement back, with a hint of anger on his face.

"If that's all, then I might as well accept the conditions proposed by Yan Country. They are much more powerful than the Chamber of Commerce." Roy pretended that Yan Country also proposed cooperation to him, forcing Jesse's representative to give up greater benefits.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Roy. I got nervous and took the wrong one. This is the right one." Jesse took back the agreement with a bitter smile and took out another new agreement from his briefcase.

"Well... it's okay, but we can't share all the production technology of the medicine with the Chamber of Commerce. We are in a cooperative relationship, not a buying and selling relationship." Roy said, pointing to one of the clauses in the agreement.

"I also think Mr. Roy's suggestion is very reasonable, but according to my superiors, this agreement is written based on the premise of buying out the technology. How about you add some bonus items, such as the rumored spell that can cure mineral sickness..."

Representative Jesse looked embarrassed and rubbed his palms together, as if he had made a huge concession.

"Haha... The Chamber of Commerce is really greedy..." Roy sneered and threw the agreement on the table.
