Two years later!
The completion of the trade route from Moth Frog Town to the Doma River marked that Moth Frog Town would become the first major city to be closely connected to the relatively prosperous cities other than the Hydra Wrath Sorcerer Academy. Tens of thousands of residents of Moth Frog Town celebrated, and the entire Moth Frog Town entered a festive period.
Naturally, this trade route was named after Grimm by the residents of Moth Frog Town as Grimm's Path.
Grimm's Path was only three meters wide and was paved with bluestone slabs. Although it was only the lowest level of trade route, it would play an unimaginable role!
The ocean-going ships of the four Chambers of Commerce were docked next to the Doma River port. Grimm stepped on the high platform and looked down at the many merchant caravans below. He looked at the port that was still very simple but well-equipped, and said loudly, "From now on, this port will be named Vivian Port."
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh …
The applause was warm, and the merchants at the port drove their carriages towards Moth Frog Town.
Today's merchants would no longer need to drive elephants across swamps and thorns like the Sycamore Gold Chamber of Commerce did before the road was built.
After a short celebration with the aristocrats of Moth Frog Town, Grimm whispered to the accountant behind him, "Record the taxes of today's port and trade route."
"Yes."
The accountant stroked his mustache excitedly and nodded.
Grimm met the gaze of the president of the Parasol Gold Chamber of Commerce who had specially rushed over. He walked over to her. This was an old woman with extremely fair and delicate skin. As an ordinary human, although she was already over a hundred years old, Grimm could feel that her Soulfire was still relatively stable and showed no signs of dispersing.
Behind the old woman, there were two Legendary Knights.
"Congratulations, Governor Grimm, on the official completion of the Vivian Port. These two Crushed Stone Scale Beast cubs are a small gift from the Sycamore Gold Chamber of Commerce!"
Behind the old woman, more than ten strong Knights carried a huge iron cage. Inside, two one-meter-long scaled beasts were clinging to the iron cage, roaring like tigers that had just been weaned.
"Hmm?"
"This guy!"
Several other Chamber of Commerce presidents who planned to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with Moth Frog Town looked at the two Crushed Stone Scale Beast cubs in shock. The Parasol Gold Chamber of Commerce had invested so much in Moth Frog Town?
Grimm naturally knew the value of these two cubs.
These young beasts were relatively easy for humans to tame in the Sorcerer World. Once they matured, they would easily possess the strength of a Legendary Knight. Their value was similar to the Flame Birds of the Flame Mercenaries.
The Parasol Gold Chamber of Commerce had sent two of them. It seemed that this Chamber of Commerce was indeed planning to have a closer long-term cooperation with Moth Frog Town.
If he did not remember wrongly, the Magnolia's Will mercenary band, which had magic apprentices, had been recruited by the Parasol Gold Trade Union from the Tri Thunder Tower.
"Guild Leader, you're being too polite."
With a smile on his face, Grimm instructed the knights behind him to carry the cages containing the two Crushed Stone Scale Beast cubs away. He then asked tentatively, "I wonder if the Sycamore Gold Trade Union has any intention of cooperating with the construction of the Moth Frog Town's sky port?"
In the previous contract, Parasol Gold only provided technical support for Moth Frog Town's sky port.
However, at this time, judging from the Parasol Gold Trade Union's intention to cooperate on a large scale, Grimm raised his own intention at the right time.
"That's exactly what I'm thinking!"
The old woman was all smiles as she stretched out her right hand. She had already prepared the cooperation contract …
Later on, other Chambers of Commerce presented their gifts. However, compared to Parasol Gold, these Chambers of Commerce were obviously only planning to cooperate with Moth Frog Town in a general sense.
At night.
The accountant ran to Grimm's room excitedly and said, "Sir, today's tax for Vivian Port and Grimm's Path is a total of eight hundred and twelve gold coins!"
Grimm had expected this and nodded in satisfaction.
Today was the first day, so the income would be higher. In the future, as long as one-third to half of today's income could be maintained, the annual net income would be more than ten thousand gold coins. This was by no means a small number.
As for the raw material processing workshops and service industries that had sprung up because of this trade route and Vivian Port, the indirect increase in income would be more than ten times that of the trade route itself!
In this way, Moth Frog Town's momentum was set!
…
Two months later.
The employment contracts signed between Flame Mercenary Group, Roaring Earth Mercenary Group, and Magnolia's Will Mercenary Group with Moth Frog Town had expired.
However, it did not matter anymore.
As early as half a year ago, Dawn Protector City had sent messengers and signed a peace contract with Moth Frog Town. As Moth Frog Town's development was getting better and better, the trade route was unstoppable, and Dawn Protector City could no longer resist Moth Frog Town's attack.
There was no longer a need for Moth Frog Town's war offensive. The richness of Moth Frog Town had attracted too many civilians from Dawn Protector City who were struggling to make a living. Moth Frog Town had become the economic center of this area.
In a few years, Moth Frog Town would definitely be at a higher level than the surrounding Dawn Protector City, Love Bee City, and Sweet Potato City!
If Moth Frog Town's air port was built and became a city directly under the Hydra Wrath Sorcerer Academy, then it would be a city of two levels!
Flame Mercenary Group and Roaring Earth Mercenary Group left one after another, only Magnolia's Will Mercenary Group stayed.
The old Sorcerer-Apprentice of Magnolia's Will Mercenary Group stood up and bowed respectfully to Grimm.
"Master, I don't have many years left to live. My only concern is this daughter of mine. I heard that Master has signed a Great Bloodfalls Lavawyvern Bloodline Witchcraft contract with Knight Muyi. After Master's term as the City Director of Moth Frog Town expires, you will guide Knight Muyi to the underground Abyss Knight Perseverance Academy? "
Grimm nodded and said calmly, "Yes."
The old Sorcerer-Apprentice took a deep breath and said, "May I ask Master, what level of Bloodline Witchcraft is the Great Bloodfalls Lavawyvern? If my daughter, Magnolia, wants to sign the same contract with Master, what price will she have to pay? "
Hmm?
Grimm pondered and did not speak immediately. He did not expect Muyi to kneel on one knee and say, "Sir Grimm, I hope you …"
Grimm stopped Muyi and asked curiously, "You like her?"
"Huh?"
Muyi, who was not good at expressing himself, did not know what to say. He hesitated for a long time without saying a word.
The determined and reliable Legendary Knight stood there blankly, at a loss.
"Muyi, yes means yes, no means no. I used to be like you, but I want to tell you, don't miss the beauty in front of you. "
Muyi gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Yes!"
Grimm looked at Magnolia, who was blushing, and smiled. He said to Magnolia's father, "The Great Bloodfalls Lavawyvern is a Level-3 creature from the Shadow Enigmatic World. It belongs to the top Bloodline Witchcraft. In other words, a Knight with this Bloodline Witchcraft will have a chance to successfully become a Great Knight comparable to a Level-3 Great Sorcerer!"
Grimm paused and continued, "As for the drawbacks, the Great Bloodfalls Lavawyvern must consume a certain amount of sulfur regularly. Otherwise, its power will gradually weaken. If it does not consume sulfur for a long time, the Demonic Blood Moss in its body will even turn on the host!"
Bloodline Witchcraft must have its drawbacks.
Even so, whether it was Yulan Bo Xiang or the old sorcerer-apprentice, all of them were tempted and looked at Grimm with surprise.
Grimm said to the old Sorcerer-Apprentice, "I've kept a few of the bloodlines of this powerful creature from a foreign land. As for the conditions, I won't hide it from you. Muyi is the favorite child of my deceased junior sister. If your daughter, Magnolia, can become his wife, I will transplant the Great Bloodfalls Lavawyvern Bloodline Witchcraft on both children as an elder's blessing after my term as the governor ends. "
…
Ten years later.
The development of Moth Frog Town was getting faster and faster.
Not only the surrounding Dawn Protector City, Sweet Potato City, and Love Bee City, but also the more distant Datong City, Linglan City, and other cities began to migrate in large numbers due to the temptation of the prosperous life of Moth Frog Town's rapid rise.
Moth Frog City was like a monster's huge mouth, swallowing a steady stream of refugees that gathered there without any resistance.
It could be said that those seniors and juniors who participated in the assessment with Grimm had all benefited Grimm from the birth encouragement programs in their territories.
Inside the governor's mansion.
Grimm said to the three Legendary Knights who were kneeling on the ground, "Your mission is to lead a thousand City Guard Knights. Be sure to annihilate the bandits on the trade route! Be careful, those guys are not ordinary characters. Bring the Stone Scale Beasts. "
"Yes!"
The three Legendary Knights left the hall.
These three Legendary Knights were Muyi, Magnolia, and another Legendary Knight who was born in Moth Frog Town seven years ago.
However, unlike Muyi's choice, this newly promoted Legendary Knight was an aristocrat. He only wanted to continue to enjoy his aristocratic life in Moth Frog Town after inheriting his family.
Bo Xiang Yulan and Muyi completed their wedding eight years ago. Bo Xiang Yulan's father died five years ago without any regrets. Bo Xiang Yulan and Muyi gave birth to a girl named Mu Weiwei four years ago. It seemed that Muyi had named her in memory of Vivian's grandmother.
"Dad, Mom."
Mu Weiwei ran out with her parents. Her big eyes were watery and full of reluctance. After being coaxed by Magnolia for a while, she pointed at Grimm and said, "Go play with your Grandpa Grimm."
Grimm smiled and said, "Come, Little Weiwei, Grandpa will take you to the Knights Academy to play with Myna, okay?"
While coaxing Little Weiwei, Grimm looked at Muyi and Magnolia who were far away and smiled in his heart.
Even the Shadow Argus Sorcerer Academy had noticed this and used such a lowly method to cause trouble. It seemed that the development of Moth Frog Town had indeed become the best among all the cities that had accepted the assessment.
At least, Grimm had not heard of other cities having a Legendary Knight bandit group that had suddenly appeared like Moth Frog Town.
However, the current Moth Frog Town was not a place where a group of more than a hundred bandits led by a Legendary Knight could roam freely!
Take Muyi and Magnolia for example. Both of them had inherited all the property of a dead Sorcerer-Apprentice. This was not something that an ordinary Legendary Knight could compare to.
As expected.
Seven days later, the three Legendary Knights returned with a large number of bandit captives and the head of the Legendary Knight bandit. They were warmly celebrated by the residents of Moth Frog Town.
Two four-meter-long Stone Scale Beasts were in the middle of the knights, looking majestic.
