Chapter 133

Count Revel frowned slightly as he looked at the last month's financial report of Banta City in his hand.

This does not mean that this financial report is not good-looking. On the contrary, the data on it are extremely gorgeous, and anyone who sees it will be very surprised.

According to this financial report, the total monthly financial revenue of Bangta City last month was 460,000 gold coins, which has successfully surpassed Anweimar City and became the city with the highest financial revenue in the Lampari Kingdom.

You must know that Anvilmar City, as the royal capital of the Lampari Kingdom, has naturally received special attention from the entire kingdom. In addition, more than half of the kingdom's big nobles and big chambers of commerce are concentrated in it, and its financial revenue has always been low. Far beyond all other cities in the Kingdom.

And if the time is moved forward eight years, when the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has not yet appeared, the financial revenue of Bangta City is basically negative. Every year, the kingdom’s finances must provide some subsidies to barely maintain it, although it cannot be regarded as the worst in the entire kingdom. The city in the city is also ranked at the bottom, and it has never been imagined that one day it will be able to surpass the city of Anweimar.

However, only eight years later, Bangta City has achieved this achievement that was never imagined before. It is undoubtedly something that everyone in Bangta City should be proud of.

As the current lord of Banta City, and also the leader who personally created the glorious achievements of Banta City in the past few years, Earl Rewell is obviously more qualified to be happy and proud of it.

When he first saw this financial report, Earl Revel was indeed full of joy and felt deeply proud in his heart.

But when he saw an unremarkable statistic at the back of the report, his mood changed instantly.

This data is the statistical data about the monthly financial revenue growth of Bangta City.

According to the data display. Bangta City's fiscal revenue was around 460,000 gold coins last month. Compared with the 440,000 gold coins in March, the fiscal revenue has increased by about 4%.

For Bangta City, which already has such a scale. A 4% increase in one month is quite an achievement.

However, Earl Rewell remembered clearly that this figure was 6% in last month's financial statistics, and 8% in the previous month, and 9% in the previous month.

If you look at the fiscal revenue statistics for the last six months, you will find that this data is decreasing month by month.

In other words, Bangta City's current financial revenue growth rate is getting slower and slower.

According to the current trend, I am afraid that it will wait until the end of this year. The fiscal revenue of Bangta City will no longer show a substantial increase.

Even... there is a possibility of regression!

"Impossible!" Earl Revel immediately shook his head vigorously, instantly denying the possibility of his inner guess.

But when he calmed down and thought about it seriously, he had to admit that this was a fact he had to face.

The development of Bangta City has obviously entered a bottleneck period, and it is difficult to make Bangta City develop by leaps and bounds like when the magic industry was just rising and growing.

To solve this problem, in addition to strengthening the multi-faceted development of Banta City, the most important thing is to make great efforts in the magic industry, the pillar of Banta City.

After pacing and thinking in the office for about half an hour, Earl Revel left the Santo's Mansion. Take his special magic car and go to the west of the new town of Bangta City.

This brand new urban area is another new urban area in Bangta City, which was developed only last year.

According to Earl Revel's plan, this new urban area will be built into a comprehensive urban area. Unlike the previous planning of Bangta City, each urban area is divided into areas with distinct functions.

In this comprehensive urban area, three hotels and many shops have been built so far. Two factories of different styles have been built on one side of the road, and a large area of ​​residential buildings has been built by the Amley Chamber of Commerce on the other side. .

These 20-meter-high six-storey residences are the latest so-called "apartment-style residences" launched by the Amrit Chamber of Commerce, because the underground of the residences has already been equipped with a complete automatic water supply system and warm water circulation system, plus a complete sewer system, making this residential area one of the most convenient residences in Bangta City.

At the same time, because the selling price is not particularly high, far less expensive than those villas, it has been greatly welcomed once it was launched.

And not far from the diagonally opposite of this residential area, there is also a building covering a very large area that is rising from the ground.

This building complex belongs to the Banta City Magic Industry Skills Training Academy, which is the product of the expansion of the Bangta City Magic Industry Skills Training Academy.

The reason why it can occupy such a large area with a good location is the strong support of Earl Revel.

Although the Bangta City Magic Industry Skills Training Academy was founded by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, after the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce left Bangta City and the Lampari Kingdom, this academy fell under the control of the Banta City City Lord's Mansion.

After Earl Revel took over as the lord of Banta City, he didn't pay much attention to this academy in the first two years, but since last year, he has started to focus on this academy, not only giving land, but also investing a lot of money. Funds, in the face of the vigorous enrollment of Bangta City and surrounding cities, the scale of this college has expanded by four or five times.

At present, there are more than 8,000 students in this academy. Except for more than half of them are concentrated in various technical training subjects related to magic machinery, there are also more than 400 students who are directly conducting research on the theory of magic machinery. and study.

This is a subject established under the special instruction of Earl Rewell. At the same time, Earl Rewell also instructed the Baron Rictor School of Magic to try its best to send the students of the academy here to learn the theory of magic machines.

If it was before, of course no students would be interested in this kind of research, but with the popularity of magic machines in the Lampari Kingdom and nearby countries, not only the students studying magic at the Baron Rictor School of Magic are interested in learning the theory of magic machines There is a strong interest in knowledge, and even the young magicians of the Lampari Royal Academy are also actively involved.

Compared with the Royal Academy of Lampari, the Bangta City Magic Industry Skills Training Academy has a very important advantage, that is, this academy was originally founded by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and now even if the ownership belongs to the name of Bangta City, Xu also I have always paid close attention to this academy. Not only will I not hesitate to provide a large number of skilled workers from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for on-site training, but I will also provide the academy with a lot of detailed basic knowledge of magic machinery theory, so that students in this academy can use it more conveniently. learn and master this knowledge.

Earl Rewell came here on purpose today, and he made a special trip to attend a ceremony.

The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will donate a book to the Bangta City Magic Industry Skills Training Institute. It is written by Evita, the director of the Magic Research Institute of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and Ai Dwarf Canby, the director of the Magic Machine Tool R&D Center of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. "Introduction to the Basic Theory of Magical Mechanics" co-written by famous research institutes and engineers.

This book is the first book on the theory of magic machinery in the true sense. According to the information provided by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it contains a very complete theoretical basis for magic machinery, allowing a person who has no foundation in magic machinery to be able to Master the basic theory of magic machinery after reading this book.

This book may not be important to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but it is an extremely important theoretical book for everyone involved in the magic industry outside of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Because before that, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce only transferred the relevant technologies to other chambers of commerce, but this time, it was the first time that the theoretical system was truly shared.

Therefore, this book not only has very strong practical significance, but also has strong symbolic significance.

The main reason why the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is far ahead of other chambers of commerce in the related technology of magic machinery is that they have an absolute advantage in theoretical research.

The appearance of this book represents that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce began to willingly share their magic mechanism theory system, which will finally make it possible for other chambers of commerce to catch up with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

And according to the information sent by Earl Rewell from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, although the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will publish this book as a fixed publication in the future, it allows Bangta City to be the first to own it, and will release it in half a year. Really put into print.

In other words, compared to other people and chambers of commerce, Bangta City took half a year longer.

This is obviously the special care of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for Bangta City, so Earl Rewell is very grateful to Xu Yi and personally attended the book conferring ceremony.

However, when Earl Rewell rushed to the Magic Industry Skills Training Academy in Bangta City, he unexpectedly found that it was not Xu Yi, but his wife Steele.

After glancing at Steele's obviously protruding belly, Earl Rewell suppressed the doubts in his heart, congratulated Steele first, and then asked about Xu Yi's whereabouts.

"I'm very sorry, Lord Earl. Xu Yi had to temporarily cancel his trip to attend the book conferring ceremony because he was in a hurry. However, he specifically asked me to attend the ceremony instead of him, and apologized to Lord Earl."

"Is it urgent? Is it serious?" Count Revel asked with a frown.

With the strong influence of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in these surrounding countries, is there any urgent matter that can make Xu Yi temporarily change the scheduled itinerary?

"It's not too serious, but he has to deal with it himself." Steele shook his head and replied.

"That's it..." Earl Revel's tone revealed complete disappointment and a trace of worry.

Xu Yi has always been a person who abides by the agreement very much. He doesn't think that there is any urgent matter that can force Xu Yi to change his scheduled itinerary. The current situation only represents a very serious possibility.

Xu Yi is not willing to come to such a significant book conferring ceremony, so perhaps in his mind, Bangta City is not that important anymore. (To be continued..)
