Chapter 116 The Capital of the Clock Tower

Frost Rose, the first area, the former Rurnese country, Mozwa, the capital of the bell tower.

The chimneys in the suburbs emit thick black smoke, and rows of neat factories were densely spread on both sides of the river. Tall ships slowly sailed past the river, bringing a long wake. These ships drove into the inland from the distant sea estuaries, constantly unloading all kinds of heavy cargo, some were black coal and some were heavy metals.

These things come from all over the place and gather here. They will be processed into various alchemy products and then sold to various places. They include weapons, cannons, clocks, telescopes, metal parts, etc. The huge benefits generated in them make the alchemists of Rurnah extremely wealthy.

The streets in the city are very spacious, and the brass street lights are exquisitely shaped, but unfortunately some corners are covered with a layer of rust.

There was a small amount of water on the road after the rain, and as carriages drove by quickly, a splash of water splashed. Some of these carriages were pulled by horses, while others were driven by machines, or they should not be called carriages, which were more appropriate for magic motorcycles.

As a magic motorcycle stopped, the middle-aged man who looked like a butler walked out of the car, then opened the car door and gently walked down with a girl in a blue skirt.

The high heels stepped on the wet floor, and a slight sound of water splashes sounded. The girl in a blonde and blue skirt looked up at the towering building in front of her lower body, and the long spire extended to the sky. There were four huge stone pillars in front of the main entrance, and everyone in clothes and ties kept entering and leaving the gate, and various voices of conversation came from inside from time to time.

"Is this the branch of the Aoni Chamber of Commerce?" The girl walked in front with her skirt, and several bodyguards in black were walking behind her. Looking at the exquisite patterns of the mechanical swords in the hands of these bodyguards, she knew that these were all exquisite alchemy creations after enchanting.

"Yes, Miss."

The butler on the side guided the way forward and then introduced the background of the Aoni Chamber of Commerce.

"The Aoni Chamber of Commerce mainly engages in books and papermaking, and is also involved in the industry in opera and interpretation."

"It is said that over the years, a group of famous singers have been trained to perform operas and poetry, which has greatly increased the sales of their own books." The butler continued.

"Their products should be very popular among the nobles or wealthy ladies. Why not set up their headquarters here? The rich people in Mozwa should be among the top three in the country. Moreover, compared with the Yubere merchants who are passionate about interests, the alchemists and scholars in our country are more interested in literature and drama, and there are more customers."

"This is said that most of their papermaking workshops are located in Velga, because they are close to forest farms and some raw materials, which is more convenient. Later, Velga split and they were also divided into the west, and only some of the industries were transferred."

"Is New Velga?" The blonde lady thoughtful, then walked into the hall and looked at the rows of windows and lines.

"There are many people, have you made an appointment in advance?"

"After making an appointment, please come with me, Miss. The person in charge of Aoni's branch is on the third floor." The butler walked in front and asked a follower behind him to contact the waiter in the chamber of commerce first.

Not long after, several personnel in neat uniforms stepped forward to greet them.

"Welcome to visit the eldest lady of the Shelia family, please come with us." A long red carpet was put down, and then stood on both sides bent down to pay tribute.

Looking at the grand scene in the hall, some people next to them began to talk.

"Who is that lady? Let the Aoni Chamber of Commerce be so welcomed."

"I don't know, but looking at her appearance and the bodyguards around her, they should have been born in a big family."

"I haven't seen her before, but she is so beautiful." A guest sighed.

"Okay, okay, there are only a few words coming and going. After all, you are a literary lover. Don't you know other adjectives?"

"Isn't this a casual word? It's better to be simple in life. By the way, does anyone know that lady? I want to know her name."

"But I don't know either."

"I don't know."

A long time later a voice came from the corner: "That is the leader of the Time-Hand faction, the eldest lady of the Shelia family, Letis."

As the words fell, the blonde girl disappeared from the corner of the stairs.

As the capital of Rurna, Mozva was called the capital of the clock tower. This is because in the early years, as a sophisticated creature, only a few alchemists could make clocks, so they were in short supply among the great nobles and rich people, and their value was extremely high.

Most alchemists are proud to be able to make precise clocks and watches. Because Mozwa is the capital, he gathers many well-known alchemists in China, gathering many factions, most of them will build a large bell tower on the faction's buildings to demonstrate their own excellent technology and also have the function of advertising.

In this way, there were more and more clock towers in Mozvane, and finally they were named the capital of the clock towers.

Over the past few hundred years, the number of alchemists in Rurnard has increased exponentially. Although the clocks are gradually becoming less exquisite, these clock towers have been preserved. And to this day, some alchemy factions also retain the early names, "The Moment of the Hour" is one of them. As a faction that started with the manufacturing of clocks, it is still one of the six strongest factions in the country. And the descendant of the leader's family, Letis naturally has great power.

Aoni Branch, third floor.

"In other words, does Miss Letis want to publish this publication by herself?"

A middle-aged man in a white shirt and neat vest sat on the sofa, looked at the blonde lady opposite and asked carefully.

"Yes, everyone's aesthetics are too vulgar now. They are still the kind of thick pink faces, wearing layered skirts, and the ornaments hanging on them weigh a few pounds. It makes people feel uncomfortable when they look like they are decorated with vases."

After finishing the details, the blonde girl raised the white porcelain tea cup in front of her and took a sip. She was already dissatisfied with some of the current clothes. While other girls of the same age were still chasing the trend, she had already started thinking about how to create the trend.

"What are your thoughts? Or Miss Letis, what kind of beautiful style do you want to convey?" The head of the chamber of commerce thought about the words and asked the young lady carefully. The Aoni Chamber of Commerce is currently in the west, and as a branch, it is already weak. If he offended this young lady, he will probably encounter various troubles in the future. This is not what he wants to see.

"Well..." Letis put down the teacup, but his thoughts gradually floated to his distant roommate, who was almost without accessories.

"Maybe it would be much better if it is simpler and more natural."

The blonde lady seemed to burst into inspiration and described a new style of dressing to the head of the chamber of commerce in front of her, mainly simple and fresh, while the other party tried to understand the lady's wonderful ideas and then wrote them down one by one.

"We have a general understanding of Miss Letis's idea, but in the first edition, we will probably not be released next year."

"No, even if you ask someone to make an appointment for manuscripts, prepare and print, it won't take so long." Letis was a little confused.

"I'm very sorry, because the current printing line is running at full capacity, and I really don't have any time to re-debug and print new products."

"Are you perfunctory to me? Or treat me as a child?"

Although her temper was restrained when she was in school, when she returned to her familiar territory, the young lady of Ledith came back to her temper. Besides, what she said was not unreasonable. With so many printing factories in Aoni, it was a trivial matter to spare her hands to print a few magazines.

"Sorry, why do you explain this better? It's really a very unusual situation at the moment. I'm not convenient to say it directly. If you ask the head of the Shelia family, he will tell you the reason." The person in charge of the Aoni Chamber of Commerce wiped the sweat from his forehead and tried hard to explain the reason.

Letis turned to the butler behind him with a little confusion, who bent down and whispered in his ear.

"Miss, the Aoni Chamber of Commerce is really not free at the moment, because the war is about to begin."

The distant Principality of Black Rock, the Kingdom of Falcon, and the Kingdom of the Holy Land, airships passed by high altitudes, and snowflake-like paper fell from the sky, and documents printed with rose patterns were declared in all directions.

Under the sky, flags with rose patterns gradually stood up and ran into the distance.
