novelLe He's luck
| ← Ch.595 | Ch.597 → |
After Miracle City was established, it didn't conquer any cities, expand in any direction, or invade anyone. Without having any blood on their weapons, in just around a year, they had grasped all of the giant Forest of Chaos.
It had to be said.
This was a miracle!
Miracle City didn't have the strength to control any area, but they had over a million troops to control.
Whether it was the elves, the spirit beasts, or the Sea Race, when they were used to the various products of Miracle City, used to teleporting, and used to the Space Warehouses, it became an integral part of their lives and it couldn't be separated anymore.
Especially with the establishment of the Elven Bank, the Giant Dragon Bank, and the Deep Blue Bank. They all used Miracle City's Smart Brain to manage them and the warehouses storing the source stones and treasures all used Miracle City's technology.
If Miracle City was lost.
They would lose quite a bit of influence!
This seemingly loose law was becoming more and more deeply ingrained. In the future, if there was a place with a political change or if there was a changing of a generation, it wouldn't be related to Miracle City. If they wanted to use the bank, the transport system, or use the Smart Brain, they wouldn't be able to separate from Miracle City. Miracle City would always gather large amounts of wealth, gathering the wealth and resources of various areas together.
Of course, this cooperation was one where both sides benefit. But also, only a double sided beneficial cooperation could last for a long time.
These cities and countries would become richer and stronger because of Miracle City.
With West Sea City officially joining the Forest Alliance, its eighteen attacked islands and coastal and sea bottom cities also joined the Forest Alliance.
Chu Tian never looked back. There were no longer any powers in the Forest of Chaos that could threaten the Forest Alliance, but as for those empires on the continent? Chu Tian wasn't too worried about them. These powers had military strength and backing that far surpassed the Forest Alliance for now, but those high empires were far away. Even if Chu Tian taunted them without any hear, what could those empires do to Chu Tian?
Chu Tian wanted to take a luxurious yacht and play on the sea with a ship filled with beauties.
They went from the beautiful Crystal Bay to the far sea areas. They passed through many large islands with West Sea City affiliated cities on them and they passed through many underwater cities. Each city was filled with the style of a foreign race. This was a place could never be seen on the continent, in the forest, or in any other places.
While Chu Tian was traveling with the beauties, West Sea City became busy and a Transport Tower was constructed not long after in West Sea City. Miracle City sent large amounts of artisans and scholars to construct the various other facilities for West Sea City.
After a few days.
The cell phone was widely used in West Sea City.
Miracle Commerce's communication technology was based around the Magnetic Sound and Magnetic Image Towers. They had been improved several times in the past two years, with the signal being strengthened and the range being increased. Although it wasn't enough to cover the underground world or Outer Space, it perfectly covered the normal regions of the continent.
Miracle Commerce's cell phones were also constantly improved and now they had incredible functions. Not only could they take calls, take pictures, and receive broadcasts, there was also a complete system that allowed one to shop directly, send messages, and etc.
This was just the beginning.
After West Sea City's basic communication system was set up, Miracle City's engineers began to create a giant Space Warehouse in West Sea City. This was because West Sea City was the only trade center other than Miracle City in the Forest Alliance, therefore it needed a powerful logistic system.
The Miracle Shopping Center platform had already been built.
Bo Sha already couldn't wait to establish the Miracle Shopping Center in all the cities that traded with West Sea City. West Sea City managed the entire area, not only building platforms for Miracle City, they also managed their own channels.
For example, Miracle City's normal products like the canned food, the radio, the recorder, the camera, the cell phone, and their various pills and talismans, as well as the resources West Sea City obtained from the forest like pelts and herbs, or the pearls they obtained from the sea. They could all use the warehouse to sell these items through their channels.
This was an incomparably large market!
In the forest, the sea, the mountain, the sky or underground, large amounts of materials were cheap in their respective areas. Once they were sold to other countries or to other places, the price would increase by several times!
They could directly use the spatial transport for the ones that had high profits. The ones with low profits and high costs, West Sea City could gather them with the Space Warehouses and then transport them to various places.
In short.
West Sea City wouldn't just become a trade center, it would be the largest market on the western coast. With the relations West Sea City had formed with the various countries, they could quickly open up those places. This was enough to fill West Sea City's trough with riches!
The Sea Race all seized this opportunity. As soon as the Miracle Shopping Center was established, the large and small tribes all applied to open shops, joining the business army.
This was a large matter.
How could the different places of the alliance not know about this?
............
In the kingdom alliance, there was a small kingdom named the West Chu Country.
The West Chu Country was a country with a mix of humans and spirit beasts, but was led by humans with a three to two ratio between humans and spirit beasts. The West Chu Country didn't have any precious resources, therefore they were a very poor country, even being smaller than the past Southern Summer Country.
When they were invaded by the Eagle Burial Kingdom, it took two weeks to sweep through their kingdom. In the five years since then, the West Chu Country had been a vassal of the Eagle Burial Kingdom, making the impoverished West Chu Country even worse. They had to give up all their harvest each year in tax payment to the Eagle Burial Kingdom and the West Chu citizens didn't have any freedom at all, they were slaves completely under the control of the Eagle Burial Kingdom.
It was the darkest before the dawn.
The darkness of these five years suddenly ended. The Eagle Ruler had been killed by the three kingdom alliance and the Eagle Burial Kingdom surrendered. Rebellions rose all over with pressure from Miracle City and these vassals had finally regained their independence. The West Chu Country was one of them!
The West Chu Country came together with the other fourteen countries that had been freed and joined the kingdom alliance led by the Great Zhou Country. The West Chu Country was an impoverished small kingdom, but because the shared a border with the Great Zhou Country, they were one of the few kingdoms that benefited the earliest.
The West Chu Country had built a Miracle Shopping Center and any materials or pills they needed, they could directly buy from the Miracle Shopping Center. After the Miracle Shopping Center was established, the impoverished West Chu Country began to quickly grow.
"Did you hear?"
"There was another giant near the forest that joined the alliance!"
"Nonsense, how could we not know? It was West Sea City where princess Jin Luo came from!"
In a border city of the West Chu Country, the entire city was made of yellowstone and the surrounding area was completely filled with stone. The land was completely infertile with scarce water sources and sandstorms all year round, it could be considered a barren land. But even in a place like this, there were people who knew of Jin Luo.
There were many fanatical worshippers among them.
Le He was the young miss of a small noble family of a small city. Their family before the five year dark period was considered a medium sized family, but now many people had died in exile. They currently had around a hundred people, it was simply a tiny power that was the size of a bean.
West Sea City joined the alliance?!
Le He had heard this news through her precious radio and was immediately filled with wild joy. She pulled out her cell phone which although wasn't expensive, in a impoverished place like the West Chu Country, it was a very luxurious item. Because it wasn't very popular, normal people didn't have them yet.
This was the birthday present Le He's father had personally gone to a main city to buy for her on her twentieth birthday.
Le He naturally treated it like a treasure. After she opened the cell phone, she immediately selected the Miracle Shopping Center platform. There were many products in the Miracle Shopping Center and the contents of the cell phone were very limited. She looked over it for a while before finally finding a West Sea City store.
"Green Spirit Coral, that's it!" Le He found an item, "Father's chronic aging problems can be solved with this item!"
Le He directly bought it through the cell phone.
This item was expensive. There was no business area in this small city, so there was no way to pay the fee unless one ran to a main city, but that was too troublesome.
It didn't matter.
That could be solved!
This was because Le He was still a noble and the Le Family's information was stored in the kingdom's database. The cell phone was linked to Le He's alliance information card. She had a clear background and her family situation was good, therefore she could get a loan from the bank. She would pay first with the bank's money and couldn't she take care of everything afterwards?
Le He picked the Elven Bank because the Elven Bank had the lowest interest. Le He's request was sent to the Elven Bank and the Elven Bank's Smart Brain analyzed Le He's loan request. Because the amount was not high, there was no need for manual approval and the source stones were quickly sent.
All of this took less than ten minutes!
Le He filled in her address and bought the item.
The next day at noon, a small airship from the main city appeared above the city. Le He and a group of people were already waiting at the set area. The little airship was definitely from Miracle Commerce. This airship was transporting all the things this small city had bought from the Miracle Shopping Center platform.
"Le He!" A worker held a fine box and called out after seeing the name written on the box, "Is Le He here?"
"I'm here!"
Le He raised her hand in the crowd. After confirming her identity she took the item and happily ran back home.
This was an item sent from the incomparably far West Sea City, a place that Le He could never go in her life. Thinking about it, this box was just in the beautiful Crystal Bay yesterday and it had flown over tens of thousands of miles in a single day to a barren little kingdom like the West Chu Country, this was something definitely no one would have thought of before.
Le He opened the box and took out the items one by one. Whether it was quantity or quality, they all surpassed expectations. Truly worthy of something from the Western Sea, it was truly worth the price!
If one were to buy a marine item through normal means, it wouldn't be strange if it was over a hundred times more expensive. After all, the West Chu Country was an inlaid country and it was far away from the sea.
"Yi, what is this?"
Le He found that there was a small box in the large box. She didn't remember buying anything else, could the West Sea City's Merpeople have made a mistake? When Le He curiously opened the box, her eyes instantly popped out.
The entire box was filled with dazzling pearls.
West Sea City's Rainbow Pearls, West Sea City's Rainbow Pearls!
This was not just a material, it was a very luxurious item. How expensive this was, Le He could not imagine. It could be said that any single pearl from this box already had a value that surpassed Le He's purchase. This entire box added together was worth more than her entire family's value.
This was wealth that had fallen out of the sky!
Le He discovered a small piece of paper at the bottom of the box. There was non standard human writing on the paper, "Thank you for supporting our Merpeople store. Because you are our first customer, these Western Sea pearls are your souvenir!"
Le He was stunned.
Souvenir?
Probably in the hands of the powerful and wealthy Merpeople, these normal pearls weren't rare at all. But for Le He who lived in a small kingdom, a small city, and a small family, any item the Merpeople casually had was enough to increase her family's wealth by several times!
