Chapter 994 St. Martin's Sea Train
In the next time, Doflamingo was very busy.
Not only was his business frequently attacked by his competitors, but his power, he himself was often attacked by killers, and his name was even listed on the bounty list of the underground world!
A full billion!
Of course, he can handle all these things. As the underground world codenamed "Joker", he has been operating in the underground world for many years, and he has a lot of power, so he is not afraid of these!
What really gave him a headache was the attack from the world government!
After those messy things came to light, the World Government wanted to distance himself from him for the first time and remove him from the Qiwuhai queue, lest he affect the reputation of the World Government!
In the end, if he hadn't threatened the World Government with the secret of the Tianlong people in his hands, he would have been cleared out by now!
But even so, the World Government still beat him intentionally or unintentionally during this period of time, trying to get him out of the Qiwuhai queue, which gave Doflamingo a headache!
However, Doflamingo is fortunate that when those messy things were exposed, the events in the Kingdom of Dressrosa were not exposed.
Otherwise, even if he has the secret of the Tianlong people in his hand, it will be useless, and he will definitely be cleared out of the Qiwuhai queue!
After all, what he did in the Kingdom of Dressrosa can be said to have offended all the other countries in the world, intentionally or unintentionally!
No one wants the same thing to happen to their own kingdom as the Dressrosa Kingdom, right?
So once this matter is exposed, the other countries in the world will join forces to boycott him, and even if he has the secret of the Tianlong people in his hands, it will not work!
"boom!"
Thinking of this, Doflamingo couldn't help but patted the table again, scolded, and said, "Damn Crocodile!"
In Doflamingo, if it wasn't for the bastard Crocodile, he wouldn't have so many troubles today, and he was even glad that the Dressrosa Kingdom didn't come to light!
"What should I do?" At the same time as the headache, Doflamingo couldn't help but start to recall the situation in front of him, and wanted to find a way to break the game!
Although he really wanted to kill Crocodile, he also knew that the main problem now was not to kill Crocodile.
Instead, break the game and find a way to turn the situation around!
Even if it can't be reversed, at least let things not get worse!
——
the other side!
Just when Doflamingo was having a headache because of the messy things being exposed, Arthur, who was in the West Sea, was very happy.
There is no reason for him!
The sea train is open!
Well, since Tom the murloc has taken it all, how could Arthur not have the idea of a sea train?
So, he started people building sea trains a long time ago!
Compared to ordinary ships, sea trains have countless advantages when built.
Like speed!
Sea trains with fixed tracks can travel many times faster than ordinary ships!
Such as convenience!
Before a normal ship travels, a lot of supplies need to be replenished, and a lot of preparations need to be made. It takes a few days. Therefore, people want to travel far, generally, they need to book tickets in advance and make all preparations!
But sea trains are different!
Because the speed is fast, the supply is more convenient, and new islands are available every day. Therefore, as long as you pay attention to the maintenance of the train, you basically don’t need to add much supply, and you don’t need much preparation time. There are several trains every day. People want to travel, Basically bring money, you can go on a trip that says go!
For example, the flow of goods is fast!
In the past, if you wanted to buy special products from the westernmost part of the West Sea, it usually cost twice as much. Occasionally, you had to wait for it, because it took a long time to transport it by boat, and it was not easy to get it.
But now that there is a sea train, it does not take a month or two from the east to the west of the West Sea as before, but a few days to a dozen days at most, so the price of specialty products will naturally drop!
However, in addition to these advantages, sea trains are not without disadvantages!
For example, it is easy to affect the sailing of ships!
In the process of sailing, it is not easy to stop!
Generally speaking, if a normal ship wants to stop, it will start to slow down slowly from a long distance, and it will not stop until the designated point. In this case, if a ship at sea suddenly encounters a sea train, there may be a collision accident. Countless people died!
Such as affecting fishing!
When the sea train was designed, in order to avoid being attacked by the sea kings, a special device was designed on the car. When the sea train was running, it would emit the annoying sound of the sea kings to expel the sea kings!
And it turns out that this kind of sound is not only hated by sea kings, but also by ordinary fish!
It's just not as annoying as the sea kings. When they hear it, they will turn their heads and leave, but subconsciously leave the sound range!
But this, coupled with the large number of sea trains in St. Martin, will inevitably affect the reproduction and growth of fish, which will affect the fishing industry of St. Martin.
Of course, the flaws do not hide the beauty!
There are disadvantages, but compared to the many advantages, this disadvantage is nothing!
and
The disadvantages are not irreversible!
In order to avoid affecting the navigation of ships and the development of fishery, St. Maarten asked people from the Ministry of Industry to calculate in advance before the construction of the marine train started, and calculated the track points that would have the least impact on the navigation of ships and the growth of fishery resources. department!
While minimizing the disadvantages, it does not affect the number of sea trains!
Well, this is why, with the full support of St. Martin, Tom has joined St. Martin for so many years, and the sea train still took so many years to build!
Of course, the main reason for the sea train to be built after so many years is this, there is another point!
Compared with the sea trains in the capital of seven waters, the density of the sea trains in St. Martin is many times higher!
Arthur knew how beneficial the sea train was to the circulation of resources within the kingdom and the economic development of the kingdom, so it was originally designed on the premise of covering the entire West Sea!
Therefore, the number of sea trains to be built is naturally much more than that of the water capital, so the time required is also much more!
"After the construction of the sea train, the circulation of resources among the kingdom's people has accelerated, and the economic development has also accelerated, and the kingdom's national strength has also grown faster!"
Arthur stood in the train station set up next to the port of St. Martin, watching the sea train with smoke and roar, speeding towards the distance, a smile on his face!
Well, folk resources!
In fact, sea trains were built for civilian use!
If it is to be used by the military, there is already an underground train in St. Martin!
That one has already connected the entire West Sea!
Not only that, in the past ten years, underground trains have even connected the other four seas, the great waterway, and some islands in the new world.
It's just that this is one of St. Martin's secrets, so that when the war breaks out in the future, the supplies can be transported to various places, and it is so that the things from the West Sea can be sold to other sea areas to earn a lot of money, so at this stage Arthur is not ready to expose it. There is no preparation for civilians to use!
In addition to trains, St. Martin also has such things as portals, and this is not intended for civilians to use, so civilians do not know!
