System vs Rebirth Chapter 1231: Train

Chapter 1231: Train

"The train was attacked but suffered no harm?"

"They couldn't even do anything to the train? Even a scratch?"

"The rumor about it being as st.u.r.dy as the wall of the Ardagan family was true."

"But maybe the attackers had low level strength."

"What kind of low level strength could create a ma.s.sive explosion?"

"Then, was it a spirit master or spirit grandmaster?"

"No way a spirit grandmaster attacked, right? They were the backbone of our country, so they couldn't easily move."

"But the strength was apparent."

Because of that attack, a lot of people were talking about it. They had never thought that the train would be so st.u.r.dy.

The commoners recounted everything they saw. Some guards were even spreading rumors about the enemies being spirit grandmasters, which increased the reputation of the train even more.

When they realized how safe the train was, they finally realized one thing. It seemed that the train would become the most popular method of travel.

The merchant simply laughed while saying, "Hahaha. I could move my items from one city to another at such a high speed, and with this level of safety, there's nothing I can complain about. Even the cost is much lower than a normal carriage. I have to get a contract with the Ardagan family so that my goods can be guaranteed."

Other merchants couldn't help but gasp. Even though three out of the top ten merchants had used the train, it was because they allied themselves with the Ardagan family.

However, with such a neutral merchant recounting the incident and the safety, everyone couldn't help but want to try.

Of course, to withstand that attack, the train had used up a lot of demon crystals. But the free advertis.e.m.e.nt from the people made everything worth it.

A lot more merchants started flocking the trains, wanting to transport their goods. Even if the Ardagan family had a lot of enemies, their goods would still be safe with how st.u.r.dy the train was.

Even bandits couldn't do anything if there were still any bandits in the Ardagan family's territory.

More importantly, the Ardagan family had spread their road to other territories. They could spread their goods widely with little cost. This was just an opportunity for them to rise.

In fact, thirty percent of the n.o.bles in this kingdom had become Noel's allies, including n.o.bles in the central region.

The ten great merchants were probably able to spread their goods for thirty to forty percent of the kingdoms, but more than that would need an even better technology since the cost to transport their goods would increase drastically.

Meanwhile, the Ardagan family could allow them to reach that level just by using them. In addition, the number of n.o.bles willing to trade with Noel was steadily increasing.

In the future, it wouldn't be weird if the Ardagan family gave them an opportunity to spread their good to more than half of the kingdom. And it might not take that long.

Meanwhile, those who had fallen out with the Ardagan family could only try their best to cater to the remaining half of the kingdom with primitive technology. It wouldn't be weird if a lot of great merchants would be pushed away from their rank because of the Ardagan family.

Without anyone realizing it, the road that Noel had built started getting called the Golden Road.

It was a road of opportunity.

Obviously, several great merchants immediately came to the Ardagan family, begging them to forgive their mistakes.

With Anna in charge, she simply followed Noel's instruction, which was to make sure the grat.i.tude and grudge were clear to see.

She rejected them and pushed them away. By the time they saw the success of other merchants, their second plea would definitely become much bigger, which was Noel's way to extort them.

And they would have a hard time competing with the merchants that had been using his train from the beginning.

Little did everyone know, Anna actually used this method to make an agreement with the Greenwood Kingdom.

In their royal palace, Livia lowered her head and lifted her skirt. "I greet Your Majesty."

The king couldn't help but smile. "It seems they didn't treat you badly there, Livia."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Livia still called him with his t.i.tle since this audience was a formal one. There were still several ministers in the hall, so she had to maintain her image.

"How have you been? Is everything good?" The king asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Everything is running smoothly. And a lot of talents will emerge from the Greenwood Kingdom. I see a lot of them coming from the Greenwood Kingdom." Livia smiled.

"Hoh?" The king looked amused. Even the ministers looked excited. They knew what this implied. Still, there was no way Livia would go back for no reason. "I'm a little surprised about you returning here, especially because of the agreement. Even though I want to talk a bit more, I think we have to get to the point first."

"Yes, Father." Noel had forbidden Livia to return to her country if she became his disciple. But since it was Noel's side that allowed her, there must be something she needed to do in this kingdom. "I have managed to get an agreement with the Ardagan family."

"Oh?" The king and the ministers were curious. If this was a small agreement, there was no way Livia would come back. This meant whatever agreement they made, it would be something that could influence the two kingdoms.

"First of all, allow me to tell you about everything that happened recently regarding this agreement. Not long ago, the Ardagan family's train was attacked by mysterious a.s.sailants…"

She recounted everything from the information she had gathered.

They were quite surprised about the power of the train. They had been fixing their road the whole time since they wanted to get the train for themselves.

And that was when the king realized why she recounted the train. The king stood up and asked with a shocked face, "Don't tell me. The reason you come back is…"

Livia nodded. "Yes, Your Majesty. I'm talking about allowing the train to operate in the Greenwood Kingdom. And this is not just for the kingdom, but also for the import and export as well as the future ventures, not only with the Ardagan family, but also with the Muivell Kingdom, the Zaecuria Kingdom, and the Atracaeca Kingdom."
