A large transport Magic Car was quickly driving on the largest road in the southern province of the Kandla Empire.
"Peng!"
The tires rolled over a pothole on the road, causing the entire car to shake.
Nasus who was driving the Magic Car jumped out of his seat before falling back down. He felt a pain coming from his butt and couldn't help complaining, "What kind of broken roads are these in the Kandla Empire, they're so uneven.
After this trip, my butt is about to split in half. "
Hafra sitting in the passenger seat looked like he was already used to it, so he couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "Kid, if your butt isn't split in half, could it be split in three?
Alright, stop complaining. You'll be coming here many times in the future, get used to it. "
"Keep running on this broken road?" Nasus frowned and shook his head.
Nasus shook his head, "I say, uncle, isn't the Kandla Empire richer than our Lampari Kingdom?
Why aren't they willing to build more roads?
Not only is it more comfortable for us to run, it's also faster. "
"You think that this is something that can be done with money?"
Hafra rolled his eyes at his nephew. He looked at the potholes in front of him and gave a helpless sigh, "Although the Kandla Empire is rich, they aren't willing to build roads, so what can we do?"
"This isn't right. Our Lampari Kingdom is filled with roads, how could a large empire like the Kandla Empire not know the benefits of roads?
Why aren't they willing to build them? "Nasus was still confused.
"How would I know?" Hafra gave a laugh from his nostrils.
Hafra gave a snort, "Perhaps the nobles of the Kandla Empire like the feeling of riding their horse carriages on these small roads."
Nasus muttered before continuing to drive the large transport Magic Car forward.
Seeing that he wasn't complaining, Nasus fell silent and began to plan the rest of the trip.
Since the Kandla Empire and the Lampari Kingdom signed the agreement, opening the Lampari Kingdom's market to them, in the past month and a half, this was the fourth time he had come to this giant empire.
Although it was very hard each time, he had earned quite a bit in the past month by transporting goods from the Lampari Kingdom to the Kandla Empire.
This time he had brought his nephew Nasus along. Other than because his nephew had gotten his driver's license from the New Flyer last year, so he was qualified to drive the large transport Magic Car, he also wanted him to see the world and familiarize himself with how to do business here, so he could train him into a capable assistant in the future.
As for the matters between the Kandla Empire and the Lampari Kingdom, a normal small merchant like him naturally didn't understand. He only knew that after the Kandla Empire opened the domestic market to the Lampari Kingdom, they could transport many goods to the Kandla Empire to sell. The tariffs were much lower than before, so this was a very good business opportunity.
If the agreement between the Kandla Empire and the Lampari Kingdom didn't change, he was confident in expanding this business. It would be much better than him being a normal small merchant in the Lampari Kingdom.
The only obstacle was that something might happen to the Kandla Empire.
As long as there was a problem with such a large empire, it would be enough to crush a small merchant like him to pieces, without being able to resist at all.
"I hope that her majesty can maintain a good relationship with the Kandla Empire … …" Thinking of this, Hafra sincerely prayed in his heart.
"Hey, uncle … …" At this time, Nasus who had been silent for a bit suddenly spoke up.
"Un?
What is it? "
"I've never been to the Kandla Empire before and I always felt that this large empire would be much better than a small country like our Lampari Kingdom in many aspects. But after personally seeing it this time, I feel that … … I feel that the Kandla Empire is much worse than our Lampari Kingdom in many aspects."
Seeing the confused look on Nasus' face, Hafra couldn't help laughing. He thought that this kid really had the same feeling as him when he came to the Kandla Empire.
"Tell me, which part of the Kandla Empire can't compare to our Lampari Kingdom?" Hafra deliberately asked.
"Let's not talk about anything else, let's talk about the road in front of us."
Nasus pointed at the road in front of them and said without any politeness, "This road should lead to the Kandla Empire's third largest city, Laru City. If it was our Lampari Kingdom, there would definitely be a very wide road.
But look at this road, not mentioning how broken it is, it's also very narrow.
I think that this road can only allow two large transport Magic Cars to drive side by side, one more can't pass. "
"Un, the broken road is indeed the biggest problem, but what else?
Is there anything else? "Hafra asked.
"Anything else?
Did you forget when we were resting in Ive City?
Although it was a small city, there was only a single restaurant in the entire city, that was too exaggerated!
Moreover, what kind of things were they selling, they didn't even have fresh meat, it was simply too shabby.
If it was our Lampari Kingdom, not to mention our Karma City, even if it was a small city, we would at least be able to eat meat. "
"What?
You're not satisfied because you can't eat meat?
A kid like you can't live without meat, aren't you afraid that your family will become poor sooner or later? "Hafra said with a smile.
"Che, can I become poor from eating meat?
The pork in Karma City is only selling for two silver coins per pound, even if I eat half a pound a day, it's impossible for my family to become poor. "
"Brat, did you forget how hungry you were when you were young?" Hafra rolled his eyes at him.
Hafra rolled his eyes at Hafra, "Don't forget, the reason why you can eat meat so happily these two years is because our Lampari Kingdom has a lot of grain, so we can take out enough feed to raise pigs.
It's already good that the people of the Kandla Empire have enough grain to feed themselves, how could they have that much free time to raise pigs? "
"Is that so?" Nasus scratched his head.
"Anyway, it's far worse than our Lampari Kingdom.
Moreover, we went to find a faucet to wash our hands and get some water for the carriage, but in the end, there was no running water in Ai Fu City, so I had to run to that old well to get water. Really ….. "
"What's wrong with letting you train a bit?" Hafra shook his head with a smile.
"You, you're completely used to the comfortable life of our Lampari Kingdom, you're not used to the backward life of the Kandla Empire ….."
Hafra was suddenly stunned.
What did he just say?
Backward?
He actually used the word "backward" to describe the Kandla Empire so naturally?
This was one of the two empires of the continent!
This was the Kandla Empire that other than the Malor Empire, the people of the other small countries could only look up to with envy!
But thinking about it, Hafra didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it.
Compared to the Lampari Kingdom, after entering the Kandla Empire, he did feel that there were many inconveniences.
For example, the broken roads that Nasus mentioned, the lack of food, the water that required manpower, and the Magic Cell Phone that he was holding in his chest that didn't have any use at all. Everything showed that it was backward.
That's right, it was backward.
Compared to the Lampari Kingdom, the Kandla Empire was backward in many aspects.
This wasn't just a momentary illusion, it was the truth.
"Uncle, what's wrong?
Why are you in a daze? "
Hearing Hafra suddenly not say anything else, Nasus turned to look at him. He found that his uncle's mouth was half open and his face was in a daze, so he couldn't help asking in a curious voice.
"Ah ….. Ah, nothing, nothing ….."
Hafra waved his hand, indicating that there was no problem.
However, when he calmed down, he couldn't help having a strange feeling in his mind.
The Kandla Empire was backward compared to the Lampari Kingdom?
If this thought was placed in any other country on the continent, or even the Lampari Kingdom from a few years ago, it would only make people laugh.
Because this was simply a giant joke.
The Kandla Empire was one of the two empires on the continent, so of course it was much stronger than the Lampari Kingdom in all aspects.
How could the word backward be used to describe the Kandla Empire?
But from Hafra's recent experience with the Lampari Kingdom and the Kandla Empire, this was an indisputable fact.
The Kandla Empire was backward compared to the Lampari Kingdom.
Hafra's lips twitched and his expression became strange, but there was a trace of joy and pride in his heart.
Without him noticing, the Lampari Kingdom had already become this strong?
When he faced the merchants of the Kandla Empire before, he always felt a sense of inferiority.
But after thinking this through, he suddenly found that there was a sense of superiority in his heart.
What qualifications did the merchants of the Kandla Empire have to put on airs in front of him, they were just a bunch of country bumpkins who hadn't seen the world!
This thought made Hafra's mood much better and he couldn't help breaking out in laughter.
Hearing Hafra's sudden laughter, Nasus turned to look at him in surprise. He found that the smile on his face was incomparably happy and his laughter was refreshing, so it could be seen that he was in a very good mood.
Nasus couldn't help feeling confused.
What was wrong with uncle?
They were clearly just discussing which part of the Kandla Empire was inconvenient, so why did uncle suddenly laugh in such a strange manner?
Could it be that this topic made uncle think of something strange?
But no matter how hard Nasus thought, he couldn't understand this.
So he could only shake his head and look forward. He focused on driving the large transport Magic Car, quickly heading towards the outline of the city that appeared on the horizon.
