Robb turned to Marian and said, "tell her what you think."
Marian was a little excited to get the chance. As the daughter of a rich rchant, it was an important opportunity for her to directly talk with the queen. If she could seize the opportunity, she would really fly to the heavens.
She quickly cald down, sorted out her thoughts in her mind, and then told her her plan. Of course, this ti, she would not say the word "invite the queen to join", but changed it to "invite the royal family to join." it sounded much more beautiful.
The queen listened carefully and pondered!
Indeed, at the beginning, she only considered the direction of transportation of troops, food and weapons. She only wanted to use it, but did not expect to get any benefits from it. In this way, of course, she could not build anything. But now she heard from Marian that the train will be open to the public. They could charge train tickets, transportation fees, train tickets, and then make a second train one by one with the money earned.
"If it goes on like this, it won't be a big problem to cover the whole kingdom." the queen gave Marian a suggestion. "However, to put it bluntly, the yield of steel and iron can't keep up with it."
Marian said, "Your Majesty, I have considered the steel and iron output. To build a railway, of course, we need a lot of steel and iron. Therefore, our first railway may be built between Westwind town and Bright Road, connecting these two important big cities. This long railway is going along the foot of the Black Pine Mountain. There are several places along the way that are suitable for mining iron mines."
"In other words, the iron mined can be transported back to Bright Road by train, right?"
Marian replied, "yes. Bright Road and the Westwind town are both big cities with a lot of people. If the railway is built between these two big cities, the inco from the tickets we can get is certainly the most, and the freight will be more prosperous. After all, Westwind town is an important production place of goods now, where there are sugar, iron, silk stockings, and all kinds of strange things..."
The queen knew from the bottom of her heart that Westwind town and Bright Road were the most suitable route to set up the first railway. However, the biggest problem now was that Westwind town was not under her control. Although nominally, Westwind town was still a town of West Gran, because of the existence of the powerful Robb, it was completely out of her Majesty's control.
It was troubleso!
At this mont, Robb suddenly chuckled and said, "I know what you are thinking."
The queen snorted and said nothing.
"You are thinking that since Westwind town is not your territory, it's weird to build a railway to Westwind Town, right?"
"Westwind town is my territory," the queen said stubbornly. "You are just a disobedient person in my territory, and I don't have ti to deal with you now. In fact, there are many disobedient people in my territories, and you are not the only one. For example, the elf village in the forest and the dwarves in the western mountains are all the sa as you. Don't think you are the only one special."
"Oh, I see. Arent you tired?" Robb said, shrugging his shoulders. "It turns out that there are so many disobedient bad guys in your territory. It's so hard to manage a kingdom."
If others said this, the queen would not even move her expression.
However, Robb's words made her feel a lump in her throat. She wanted to cry and said slowly, "you also feel that Im tired? I thought you would only mock in a strange way. But you can see how hard I'm working. If you really understand how hard I'm working, give Westwind town back to ."
Robb, "you want Westwind town?"
The Queen: "yes!"
"If you really want it..."
Robb said in a long voice. The queen thought, [This guy is going to cry again.]
Unexpectedly, instead of crying out as the queen thought, he smiled and said, "okay! Westwind town is your territory, but it used to be a small town, and you didn't care much about it. But now that it has developed greatly, it's natural to set up an executive agency. Send soone to take charge of it."
"What?" the queen was stunned.
Robb smiled and said, "you see, there are more and more chores to be dealt with in a city of tens of thousands of people. Today we have to build the road, tomorrow we have to build the bridge, and the town needs to be planned. We need to plant trees, repair the sewers, clean it, pay the police, provide food for the prisoners in prison, treat people, build an orphanage, nursing hos..."
He listed a long list of chores in a twinkling of an eye, and then said, All these ssy things are paid from my private purse. Even if I am a landlord, the landlord doesn't have any food left. How can I always make so many things with my private money? Of course, the most important thing is not to pay, but that its dealing with them. It's annoying."
Hearing this, the queen couldn't help laughing. "I've long wanted to complain about your poor administrative managent ability. In the big Westwind Town, there is no governnt establishnt. It's completely relying on blind managent, leaving a few policen there for force managent. It used to be a small town, but now there are ten thousand people. I don't think it's going to work, right?"
Robb shrugged his shoulders and said, "well, so I'm asking you whether you want it or not now. I don't care if your administrative team is in charge of this town. You see, in this way, Westwind town really belongs to you. How happy it is!"
The queen was overjoyed and wanted to say yes, but she imdiately felt that sothing was wrong.
After all, she had dealt with various forces for many years, so it was not easy to deceive her, she pounded the table and said "How dare you! I almost agreed to be tricked by you. If I send an executive team here, I will nominally send soone to take back the jurisdiction of Westwind Town, but in fact, these people can't defeat you. You will hold their necks with swords, so they will work for you. I wont be able to take back Westwind town. Instead, Im just sending you a lot of administrative staff to help you with city managent, and you can continue to be lazy on the stone stool and enjoy yourself. "
"Wow!" Robb put on a symbolic snicker and said, "every ti at this ti, you beco exceptionally smart."
"Humph!" the queen snorted angrily. "If I were so gullible, I would have been killed seventeen or eighteen tis already."
Robb said, "but you really think too much this ti. Although those vile conspiracy theories are very effective in guessing peoples plans, they are aningless to . If I were really a person who would put a sword on soone's neck and forced others to work for , would Westwind town have such a situation now? Miss queen, you can think about it carefully."
