Chapter 2694 Improving Food
There is a saying that you can earn a living by looking good, but you have to work hard at talent.
This sentence is full of the helplessness of many ordinary people.
Wychburg is precisely such a country that could have relied on its 'appearance', but instead relied on its 'talent'.
As mentioned before, Fort Vicky has a huge mineral deposit that other countries covet, and it also has powerful strength that other countries dare not easily test its edge.
When the two points coexist, it can be said that Fort Vicky has reached the point where even if it makes friends with any country at will, the country's hostile countries will not dare to turn against Fort Wych.
Originally, Fort Vicky could do whatever it wanted regardless of the consequences, but it followed the rules and never crossed the line - it neither interacted too much with any country, nor deviated too far from any country.
It has always stood in a neutral state on the Zephyr Continent.
If it were just that, that would be fine, but there happened to be another weird business master, Dewey, coming out of Fort Vicky.
It is not entirely true to say that Master Dewey is a weirdo in the business world. Note that it is incomplete, not incomplete!
In fact, seriously speaking, Master Dewey is not a businessman at all. He is a scientist, and a scientist who specializes in studying ancient lost technologies!
Just by chance, the technological products he restored became the main means of transportation in the Zephyr Continent, and he himself transformed from a great scientist of royal descent into the richest businessman in the Zephyr Continent.
Then Master Dewey began to try to accept his new identity as a businessman.
At first, he thought that business would be so smooth because of his royal ancestry. But when he reached his first big deal in Airey City, a country where the royal ancestry of Fort Witchburg was not very useful, Master Dewey It suddenly dawned on him that he relied not only on his royal bloodline, but also on his strength.
Since then, Master Dewey has completely transformed from a scientist to a businessman. After decades of struggle, he has established a business empire that controls more than 85% of the wealth of the Zephyr Continent.
Of course, we are not here to say how awesome Master Dewey is, but to say that because of Master Dewey, Fort Vicky surpassed Moonlight City in terms of overall economy for the first time and became the richest country in Zephyr Continent.
Even so, it is still impartial and stands in the Zephyr Continent with an attitude of absolute neutrality.
Although he clearly has the strength to manipulate the pattern of the Zephyr Continent at will, he still manages to maintain his true intentions. This is so commendable.
Back to business.
Cagalli felt very bad that Moonlight City could only send 5,000 troops.
She thought that with the relationship between the Fairy Queen and her father, queen and queen, she could borrow at least 10,000 troops for support, but she never expected that fantasy would always be slapped in the face by reality. When favors and interests were put together, the latter would always be absolutely decisive. Advantage wins.
"Don't put too much hope in Moonlight City. It has already tried its best." I comforted Cagalli and reasoned with her: "Now, internal and external troubles have not been resolved, and Dashai City is in danger. Even if you are not afraid of offending your father and the old Duke, , and we can’t spare too many troops to travel far away to help.”
"Then what should we do?" Cagalli sat on the sofa angrily, holding her cheek and said: "We can't ask people from our guild to go."
"Huh?" I looked at her curiously, blinked, and said, "During the last disaster, weren't you very active? You took our guild and went there. Then you weren't afraid that the group would be destroyed?"
"This is different!" Cagalli smashed the sofa angrily and said angrily: "Who knew that the old Duke had other intentions? I think if we all work together, we will definitely pay the minimum price and reap the richest fruits. .”
"There may also be casualties!"
"Isn't there a grandpa?" Cagalli rolled her eyes at me and said, "Grandpa's healing skills are so powerful, we will definitely be able to escape unscathed."
After listening to her explanation, I couldn't help but feel happy.
It turns out that before deciding to lead the charge, all the resources around her had been accounted for. This girl, if she didn't become a politician, was simply underachieving.
I smiled and shook my head, patted her shoulder, and said, "Who said you can't count on joining the guild?"
Cagalli looked at me in surprise: "How do you expect it? Grandpa Taylor is the strongest in the guild, but he has been under house arrest in Dashai City before. Now asking him to help eliminate the disaster is a bit too difficult. Apart from him, the last The strongest one is Bai Yunying, but she is not even a national power, so how can she withstand the monster's attack? As for the others, they are not even as strong as Bai Yunying. If such a group of people go over, what are they if they don't form a group to die? ?”
"Can't you think of anyone else but them?"
I reminded her with a smile.
"Others?" Cagalli became increasingly confused.
Sighing, I said helplessly: "Dragon! Have you forgotten? The dragon is also our ally!"
Cagalli's eyes suddenly widened, and a look of surprise appeared on her face: "Yes, how could I forget this! We can send the dragon to help!"
Then Cagalli turned on the repeater mode. Every five minutes, she whispered in my ear, "Contact the dragon." Magic airship, heading straight to Dragon Island.
Arriving above Dragon Island, before landing, I saw rows of huge wooden piles inserted into the earth. Hundreds of dwarves were operating machines, constantly waving hammers, and tamping the wooden piles inserted into the earth one by one. .
The loud noise carried far away, and even I could vaguely hear some of it.
The airship landed slowly, exited the hatch, and landed on the ground. I felt the earth was shaking.
Not far away, a giant dragon was lying on the ground resting. When he saw me coming out of the hatch, he quickly stood up and saluted.
"No need to be polite." I waved my hand, looked around, and asked, "Where's Spitz?"
"Lord Spitz is fishing in the sea."
"Fishing?" I wondered, "What are you doing fishing for?"
"My lord, have you forgotten that you asked Lord Spitz to be responsible for the food, clothing, and housing of these humans?"
"So you just go fishing?" I scratched my head and asked puzzledly: "Why can't we hunt other animals that are easy to see, such as deer, sheep, etc.?"
"You have misunderstood Mr. Spitz," the dragon said: "It is precisely because he has been eating land animals for a long time that Mr. Spitz decided to go to the sea to fish and improve their food."
"It's quite humane," I said with a smile.
"It is mercy, my lord."
"Well, it's mercy."
After saying hello to the goblin dwarves, I sat under a tree and watched the progress of their project.
Not long after, there was a sound of water, and then, a huge shadow crossed the sky. The thing was huge, like a submarine. When it hit the ground, it stirred up countless dust.
Taking a closer look, I couldn't help but exclaim: "Fuck, whale!"
