Snow fell outside the magic tower, and the magic tower floor where the New Year banquet venue is located has a huge crystal wall surrounding it.

Participants standing here toasting can all see the scenery outside the tower through the crystal wall. Even if it was dark at this time, the buildings around them were lit by French array lighting-this kind of "night lighting" was specially arranged for someone to do it. The cost is not much, but the effect of the creation has never been seen before. For people, it is quite amazing.

Compared to the Imperial City or other large cities in the south, Hollier City is not prosperous. However, at night, the outline of the city's buildings is clear and recognizable. The overlapping and overlapping lines are dense and dense. It is particularly spectacular when viewed from a height. Many dragons have Praise again and again ... Of course, they just feel novel.

Roddy, holding a wine glass, found Sally standing in front of the largest crystal wall. She was wearing a costume and a crown. The decorative gems were dazzling, and their pale face was a bit cold, and when looking at the side, Roddy was also a little embarrassed-the girl who was riding on the horse then stood at the apex of the kingdom.

"Do you feel okay?"

He walked over and asked in a low voice. I would say this almost every time I meet, but Sally isn't bored, and her mouth slightly tilts: "It's a pity that I can't drink, but the juice tastes good."

To keep her healthy, Roddy didn't dare to risk Sally touching alcoholic beverages. A glance at the dragons who were talking to each other left and right, Roddy whispered: "It's almost time, just a few words, don't force it."

"Do not worry."

Sally shook his hand, and Roddy felt the fingers a little cold. He was worried, but didn't dare show it on his face. Turning his head, he made a gesture to the podium in the center of the venue-soon, the newspaper reporter and cameraman who had been prepared came to the side cautiously, and the sound reinforcement array of the central podium was also Was started.

The dragon lords and elders knew that this was the New Year's speech, and they all put together their faces forward. The members of the Karen Kingdom Cabinet and a minister also stood up. In addition, Soderauer and a series of military representatives stood on the other side, and the military posture was full of young people's spirit.

Sally has seen a lot of scenes, and walked to the podium without hesitation. Roddy followed her, and the dragon, including the Dragons, consciously gave up a road. The photographer responsible for the shooting of the newspaper caught this moment and desperately recorded the scene in front of her ...

Holding her head high, Sally stepped up to the podium and looked at the existence of these identities in front of her. She took a deep breath and did not take any manuscripts, and began her "New Year's Speech" smoothly.

Such speeches were actually made by Charles II in the past, but his New Year's dinner was invited by the kingdom nobles to participate, and the purpose was also to consolidate the power and beat those less obedient nobles.

And Sally's speech, even though there were as many polite words, contained a lot of worthy words. For example, she mentioned "the Karen Kingdom is still facing a lot of challenges", "we should set new goals", etc.-even if they did not elaborate on what it was, the elders of the Dragon clan all heard the meaning.

Sally didn't say much. She bowed in five minutes to indicate the end of the speech. Such a short and refined speech was unexpected: after all, this was the first New Year after the unification of the Karen Kingdom. Several nobles in the cabinet thought that today The evening party rushed to midnight. I never thought that the "main event" would end so soon. They turned their eyes to Roddy ... Are important speeches spoken by the Prime Minister?

Roddy helped Sally down and stepped up, but then said easily: "Then I will trouble the lords and elders next-let's take some pictures together ..."

Lord Victor walked to the side first, and several other lords did not hesitate. Now the cooperation between the dragon and human is necessary. It can even be said that Roddy has made the Karen kingdom forces equal in the cooperation by himself. Because at this time, no one would be in a position to pinch. Everyone was standing by the lively crowds, and the young newspaper members kept shooting.

After more than ten minutes of busy work, Roddy waved his hand: "Thank you for your cooperation, and please enjoy tonight-Happy New Year!"

The room was filled with cheerful songs played by the band. Soderlor was patted on the shoulder by Roddy. Helplessly, he pulled up the same costume Nora and stepped into the venue. The two had rehearsed for a long time. . With his leadership, the nobles and even the young dragons around him also learned something-for the dragons of the lord and elder level, at this time they all came towards Roddy's location.

"What's the trouble with the Prime Minister these days? If they can help, the Frost Dragons will never shirk."

Earlier Victor also regarded Roddy as a junior, and his words were tight. But after Kardashian lectured as honorary elder, anyone knew who provided this systematic knowledge. Therefore, the several elders who came over all talked with Roddy in the same tone.

The Black Dragon Lord Pukasto is even more enthusiastic: "I think the smelting level of the Karen Kingdom is rising rapidly today. Can the copper, iron and silver ore keep up with the supply? May I help you find some big mines?"

This is not to say casually. To carry out industrial development, the current level of mineral resources in the Karen Kingdom is far from enough. In particular, industries such as railway construction and military smelting, which consume huge amounts of money, have an increasing demand for ore. Puckastow's words seemed casual, but in fact they were the key.

Roddy laughed with a wine glass: "This is indeed needed. The northern region is rich in minerals. At that time, there will still be a lord from the labor lord to send a junior to give pointers. I will also plan the railway line."

Hearing Roddy really agreed, Pcastohaha laughed, obviously in a good mood. No one mentioned the exchange terms at this time ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ Because they are very clear, Roddy has always had no problems of "greedy and cheap". As long as the allies are strong, his return is absolutely rich.

Victor saw that Puckastow had taken the lead, and he was so impressed that the topic changed: "If the energy in several cities is not enough, I can provide a lot of alternatives such as the essence of water. "

Roddy didn't quit, he agreed with a smile. Turning around to see the green dragon, red dragon and crystal dragon lords all speak, but he said, "In fact, I have something to discuss with several lords-"

Seeing that they all came over, Roddy did not sell Guanzi: "I want to promote paper money to replace the gold standard currency. However, the durability and anti-counterfeiting of paper money have never been ideal, because this matter is important, I want to combine Together, the five dragons have developed a reliable and durable anti-counterfeit currency, and at the same time control costs. I wonder what everyone likes? "

After hearing this, several lords agreed without hesitation-in their opinion, the concept of "banknotes" is nothing more than a substitute for currency, even the well-thought-out Crystal Dragon Krups. I don't think what Roddy is trying to do.

This is actually limited by vision: Although the dragons have lived for a long time, they have never seen humans or other races do similar things. Their own ethnic group is also scarce. They don't even use gold coins much, and their understanding of "economics" is superficial.

Only Kardashian, who stood a little farther, could understand the role of "banknotes" in the Karen Kingdom.

Many book friends asked me if I had forgotten the plot. Seriously, it really is ... so I will slow down in the recent update, and straighten out the plot before starting. Today's update is to tell you that I have no eunuchs, and those guys in the group who are reminder all day are just like reminders ... can't stand it.
