Chapter 425 Train and Hot Springs

The flag of the new party, Lippi, Boardman came to Pompeii and stayed there.

Luther was extremely surprised by this, and he did not understand the purpose of Lippi, Boardman coming to Pompeii.

But at present, it seems that this gentleman came to Pompeii without the intention of destroying the White Eagle.

Luther had no way to deal with the legend, so he could only let it go.

He can be strong, I will just let the breeze blow over the hills.

Luther did not tell anyone about this, including Lelouch, his close partner. The White Eagle Territory continued to operate as usual.

As time passed, Lelouch, the governor of the White Eagle Territory, selected a group of reliable officials to serve as mayors of the newly acquired 25 cities, and used this as a framework to recruit officials to establish second-level city halls and third-level city halls.

Luther personally saw the list of these new mayors and held an inauguration banquet. He unexpectedly discovered his uncle, Knight Sauron, and contemporary knights from six other families.

Luther welcomed this.

The rising Pompeii, which has gathered 25 cities, needs these powerful roots to penetrate into the soil, absorb nutrients, and build a foundation.

This is the only major thing that White Eagle has done after annexing 25 cities. Another major thing is to build schools, promote agricultural activities, etc.

This has to be postponed, and Luther does not need to watch it personally.

So Luther fell into a state of doing nothing again, reading novels and drinking tea every day, and of course knight training is indispensable.

The days are leisurely and free.

This morning, Luther was eating steak and reading in the study. He held the book in his left hand and grabbed the steak with his right hand, eating greasy and casually.

"Sir Luther, Miss Alice asks you to go to the train factory of the transportation company." A maid came in and reported.

"Crack." Luther finished the rest of the steak, put down the novel, and wiped his hands with a napkin.

"Did you say anything?" Luther stood up and asked.

"It is said that the train is built." The maid was a little confused. What is a train?

Luther's eyes lit up, and he said, "Find someone to call Lelouch over, and prepare a carriage. Forget it, I'll take the flying magic carpet myself."

"Yes." The maid responded and went down.

"Train, can my little train finally start to hum?" Luther was very excited.

You know, the current White Eagle Territory is very large. Thirty-two cities, with a population of about 12 million. This is a very vast territory. If you have a train for transportation, it will save a lot of manpower and material resources and provide convenience for the people.

Not to mention, the emergence of trains and Jenny textile machines will surely promote industrial development.

After waiting for a while, Luther waited for Lelouch, then called Alena, released a flying magic carpet, and the three of them took the magic carpet out of Pompeii and headed northwest.

Soon after, the group came to a building outside a wooden sign outside the building, which read "Alice Transportation Company".

There was a guard at the door. After a brief negotiation, Luther and the other two walked in and, led by the workers, came to an open area.

Railroad tracks were laid on the open area. One section of the track extended outside the factory. Luther estimated that it was very long.

The other end was connected to a rectangular house.

The train should be inside the house.

Miss Alice led the factory staff and stood beside the railroad tracks. Miss Alice was dressed very formally today. She looked like a lady from a famous family, but she was still charming and beautiful.

This was a woman who could be stunning even without makeup.

"Luther, you're here." Miss Alice looked back and smiled when she heard the footsteps.

"Yeah." Luther nodded and stood beside Miss Alice.

Miss Alice ordered: "The protagonist is here, start the train."

"Yes." A staff member responded and entered the house. Not long after, a whistle sounded that Luther was very familiar with.

"Wooooooooooo!!!!"

The locomotive, with smoke and a clacking sound, slowly drove out.

The locomotive was all black, without any paint pattern, and very ugly. But it was strong enough, woooooooo, as the whistle continued to sound, the train speeded up and went quickly.

"What is this iron lump? Is it a magical creation?" Aliena was watching the excitement.

"I didn't expect that such a thing could be made." Lelouch was a little shocked. Although he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked when he saw the real thing.

"How fast can it reach?" Luther asked.

"Fully loaded with cargo, 70 kilometers per hour." Miss Alice said with a smile.

This was the second time Alice saw the train start, so she was relatively calm. The first time, Miss Alice jumped up.

The iron lump ate coal mines and really started.

"Thank you for your hard work. Build a transportation network, lay rails, produce more locomotives, and train train staff. Get the company up and running as soon as possible. As long as the company is up and running, we will monopolize the transportation of bulk goods and make a lot of money."

Luther said.

"Don't worry about this. I am more anxious than you to make money." Miss Alice rolled her eyes at Luther, and then said: "According to your design, the locomotive and rails must be reinforced by wizards at a preliminary level. Ordinary people can hardly destroy them, but knights can. So I hope you can enact a law to prohibit the destruction of rails. By the way, please ask people to understand what a train is to avoid the tragedy of being hit by a train."

Luther nodded and turned to look at Lelouch, who nodded and said: "I will make a law."

"By the way, Luther. Our staff found that this design of steam engine can be used for many things besides making trains. You don't mind researching more uses and then setting up a factory to produce it?" Miss Alice asked.

"I wish you could build many factories. By the way, I also asked people to detect oil last time, but I didn't find any. You can ask someone to detect it. Oil is also a good source of energy."

Luther said.

"I understand." Miss Alice nodded.

Luther only witnessed this matter, but he didn't care about the specifics. So soon after, Luther left Alice Factory and returned to Pompeii Castle.

Then Luther sent someone to find Kuba, Brown.

General Manager of Orange Consortium, head of Orange Hot Spring Resort.

After watching the stumbling new party, Luther finally wanted to open this resort.

He also took the opportunity to reunite with those Orange tycoons who had not seen each other for a long time.

As a medium-sized city, Pompeii has reached its limit.

It's time to develop into a metropolis.
