Chapter 495 【0490】 New Year

After sorting out the problem and finding the direction, Lux just needs to let go and do it.

As the legitimate lord of Fosbyro, she has the determination and confidence to change this city on the northern border.

Among all the changes, the first one that attracted the attention of the people of Fosbyro was the artificial lake project that was completed miraculously after a winter.

This artificial lake, more than 20 miles away from Fosbyro, is located at the source of the Fosbyro Glacier.

In previous years, the glaciers of Fosbyro would start from here and rumble down.

During the glacier rolling process, the rumbling sound would move with the movement of the glacier, like a tide, until it reached the upper reaches of the Mekong River and completely melted into water.

And behind this rumbling glacier that rolled over everything, a new river channel would be formed at once, and the subsequent snow mountain ice and snow mountain meltwater would form a seasonal river along this path, and finally pass through the Mekong River and finally enter the Sea of ​​Conquest in Xiongdu Bay.

However, this year, when spring came and the ice and snow melted, and the Third Legion of the North finally confirmed that the Freljord people would not go south, Fosbyro was particularly quiet.

The Fosbyro people, who had been cautiously on guard in the city for a whole winter, finally had the opportunity to leave the city. They were extremely surprised to find that in the place where the glaciers began to slide and crush in previous years, there was now a large lake with almost no boundaries at a glance!

The overall shape of this large lake is oval, and the depth is very amazing. Looking down from the edge, it feels pitch black, like a mouth that swallows the world.

However, such a "huge mouth" does not look scary, because at this time, there are endless large glaciers stuck in this big mouth.

The glaciers that were as accurate as tide signals in previous years are now stuck in this mouth!

For most Fosbyro people, this is undoubtedly a very novel sight-they have never seen such a large lake, let alone a large area of ​​snow-capped mountain glaciers stuck in this large lake with a gentle slope on the north bank and a steep slope on the south bank.

What's more interesting is that around this big lake, the densely packed dragon-back larch trees are thriving in the spring breeze. Many hunters and herbalists who have been here can hardly believe their eyes after seeing this scene!

These tall trees look at least three or five years old, but just last year, it was frozen in winter and a thawed lake in summer!

At the beginning, everyone was just watching the excitement, and even without the sound of the glacier rumbling over the earth, they felt that the beginning of spring this year was less flavorful.

But soon, as people discovered the details of this artificial lake, they finally remembered the promise made by the new lord in front of all the people of Fosbyro in the largest square of Fosbyro just after winter last year.

In addition to not paying taxes for five years, there seems to be another one... building water conservancy projects?

Could it be that this is what she did?

Just when the residents of Fosbyro were confused, the Chamber of Commerce guy who had notified them to listen to the speech before sent the latest notice again.

Lord, you are going to give another public speech!

……………………

Compared to the last speech, this time, the people of Fosbyro are more curious about Count Laxana.

Before, everyone was curious about what a lord is, what kind of person the new lord is, and what changes the lord will bring to Fosbyro.

After a winter, this part of curiosity has been reduced a lot - Lacus, who has just arrived, mainly observes and investigates, and does not rashly do anything. In addition to his daily work, he often walks around the streets to visit different families to understand the lives of the locals.

Winter is the time when gossip spreads the fastest in Fosbyro. Even though the whole city was under martial law this year to prevent the barbarians from the north from going south, the spread of gossip has not been affected.

So, up to now, many well-informed people have heard about Lacus visiting each household. Although the new lord didn't know much about Fosbyro before, it seems that he is at least trying to understand and integrate.

Even though Lux hasn't done anything so far, the people of Fosbyro still have a good impression of her.

And now, with the "appearance" of an artificial lake, the people of Fosbyro are curious about Lux again.

Was that lake really built by Count Laxana?

But is it really enough to dig out such a lake in a few months?

With doubts about this artificial lake, Lux's "Spring Speech" this time welcomed more listeners.

Compared with the last time when only a few people came to listen to the speech, this time the central square of Fosbyro was packed. Standing on the temporary podium, Lux even felt like "returning to the Grand Square to give a speech".

Compared with the formal speech given by the King of Demacia in the Grand Square, although Lux's spring speech this time should become a tradition in her opinion, the specific content of the speech is quite easy to understand.

No, not only is it easy to understand, it can even be said to be not much different from chatting at home.

"To the citizens of Fosbyro, the hardworking miners, the skillful herbalists, and the brave hunters, Laxana would like to extend her greetings of spring to you all."

"In the past winter, our neighbors to the north were restless, but the tall and thick walls of Fosbyro and the endless Dragon's Back Mountains protected us. Although staying by the fire and not being able to go out made this winter a bit boring, spring is here now."

"In the past winter, I visited some of your families and had a very pleasant life with you. It also made me understand some of the problems that Fosbyro is currently facing and the changes that many people hope for."

"Now, the long winter vacation is over, and the new year has begun. Before we start a new year of picking, digging and hunting, I need to announce a piece of good news to you, a piece of really good news. "

"Just three days ago, a new artificial lake was built twenty miles outside Fosbyro. I heard that after the martial law was lifted, many people went outside the city to see the big lake. Some people said that the lake looked like an open mouth - I like this description. "

"Of course, more people saw the glacier in this mouth. Yes, this big lake is what I mentioned when I first met you here last year, at this location. , a part of the Fosbyro Water Conservancy Project. ”

“Water is the source of life and the artery of commerce. Long before I came to Fosbyro, I had discussed with Sambor of the Chamber of Commerce about the issue of Fosbyro trade. Mr. Sambor, as everyone knows, is the president of the Fosbyro Chamber of Commerce. Every summer, he will personally lead a team to Xiongdu to help everyone sell the harvest of the year and buy items that Fosbyro does not produce. ”

“And Mr. Sambor told me at the time that Fosbyro has sufficient water sources, but these water sources are in the form of glaciers every year. A new seasonal river was carved out on the land. Compared with the Miyin City in the east, the abundant water resources in Fosbyro did not support foreign trade. Many of the goods produced in Fosbyro could not be sold to Xiongdu simply by relying on large livestock. "

"It just so happens that my hometown is Miyin City, so after listening to Mr. Sambol's words, I have been thinking about how to make Fosbyro make good use of these precious water resources like Miyin City."

"And now, I have finally achieved some insignificant results."

The speech is so difficult to write, there is no small classroom in this chapter!

Watch the game, watch the game, EDG come on!
