Alexander III is not a good ruler, but one thing is still very good, that is his execution efficiency, he has always had a heart to be a wise king, everyone in the Kingdom of Balegon knows it well, he himself naturally He also knows that and takes this as his goal. He always feels that what he lacks is an opportunity, an opportunity to display his courage and talent, and this reform, he regards it as an opportunity. As well as the basic perfection now, he only spent half a month.

It can be said that the current Balegon Kingdom has completely changed compared to before. Although it looks unchanged from the outside, the three high walls that symbolize the honor of the nobility still stand in the center of the kingdom, but the outermost city of St. Innocent's Wall The door is no longer closed as before, and the civilians on the periphery can also go through the formalities to go to the St. Innocent's wall to do business and visit. Of course, the other two walls still symbolize the absolute honor of the nobility, and the wall door is still open. It's closed, but that's all. For this country that has been closed for a long time, it has changed drastically.

In the past, the Kingdom of Balegon was completely a small Holy See country composed of nobles. Now the Kingdom of Balegon has added a new element, that is, civilians. The Kingdom of Legang has acquired a large number of civilians, that is, labor and military power, and the sea ban has been opened. Although the time is still very short, it has finally made a good start. A favorable thing, Kakulista also sat in the position of diplomat as he wished, as he imagined, this position is full of oil and water, Kakulista has praised Zebra in front of William more than once The original proposal even planned to reward Zebra with the title of a low-ranking nobleman, but Zebra rejected it.

At this time, the town of Antruth has become the most prosperous town among all the outlying towns, and the harbor has also been expanded several times. Because the sea ban has just been lifted, there are still many towns to and from, and the huge harbor seems a bit empty at this time.

Zebula, William, Laffitte, and Astrod are discussing something in the church in Antruth Town at this time. As for the honest Wallon, he is currently obsessed with weapon development and love. Missed this small meeting once.

"Oh, it's still comfortable to live here~~"

The church in the town of Antruth has also been renovated, and it has already caught up with the scale of the church inside the walls of St. Innocent. As soon as William returned here, he threw himself on the sofa with a look of enjoyment on his face. Said.

"If you like, you can live here forever, and the house inside the wall can be handed over to us."

Hearing William's words, Astod squinted at him and said.

But Lafitte snorted and said.

"Forget it, William, he can't bear to part with that place. I heard that he has a close relationship with a daughter of his neighbor?"

"Zebra!! What did you say to them!!"

Hearing Lafitte's words, William immediately jumped up from the sofa, pointed at Zebra and said.

But Zebra just shrugged and said.

"It's nothing, I just briefly talked about the matter between you and Miss Magina."

"I have nothing to do with her!"

"Yes, we all understand."

"Ah."

Astord raised his eyebrows at William, and Lafitte nodded seriously.

"Oh my God!!"

William collapsed to his knees on the ground
And Zebra walked over, kicked him, and said.

"Okay, don't be obedient, talk about business."

"Astrod, how is the development of the chamber of commerce going?"

Zebra looked at Astrod and asked.

"It's not bad. Wallon has been studying the equipment that Bellamy and Sarkis brought back from the Kingdom of Germa. Sarkis helped to make some things, and they sold well, and now the sea ban has been opened. It’s no longer necessary to smuggle in order to do business like before, which saves a lot of money.”

"How many people have come to Port Andrews recently?"

"It's okay. Maybe it's because of the opening of the sea ban. Not many people come here, and most of them are travel ships from other chambers of commerce."

"There will be more and more in the future. After all, the sea ban has just started. For this country and other people, it needs a stage of adaptation."

"Lafitte, where are you?"

Zebra looked at Lafitte again and asked.

"The militia has also grown stronger. During this reform, the militia has absorbed many civilians from other towns. Luo, Bellamy and the others have performed well. Now all the surrounding towns are ours."

"Well, there is no one to find fault."

"There will definitely be. After all, the outer towns now have much more resources than the inside of the wall. Even a cardinal in St. Peter's Wall has contacted us and wants to get a share."

"Oh? Even the people inside St. Peter's Wall know?"

"Yes, they also tried to contact me, but I refused."

William also put away the deadly look just now, and said to Zebra.

"How did you handle it, Lafitte."

"I think this is a good opportunity. It is very cost-effective to exchange part of the benefits for allies. We have to guard against that old fox of Kakulista."

Lafitte said.

Hearing what Lafitte said, Zebra also nodded and said.

"Indeed, that old guy is too suspicious."

"Now that the sea ban is wide open, as the masters of the outskirts of the city, we must also show our master's capacity."

"The current outlying towns are like a big sweet cake. If you eat alone, you will only provoke more enemies, but the rules must be set by us. We are the ones who divide the cake and set the rules, but those nobles are not I will agree, so the best people to win over are naturally those who have the largest number of people, but they can only gather around the table and pick up some scraps to eat. They are very satisfied, and after we give them more benefits, they will also be sincere. to maintain us distributors."

"Additional manpower will also be sent to the harbor. Every ship that enters and exits the Kingdom of Balegon must be escorted by our people, and a certain commission and berthing fee must be paid."

"Huh? Isn't this the protection fee?"

Astord frowned and said.

"I don't think most people would be willing to pay that fee."

"Hehe, don't forget, my previous identity, and maybe even my future identity, is a pirate."

"Ok."

Hearing Zebula's words, Astrod shrugged, and I will do as you say.

But at this time, William suddenly interrupted.

"By the way, Zebra, I got a piece of news at yesterday's reception that that fellow Isuzak is coming to the periphery the day after tomorrow."

"Oh?"
