Chapter 1855  Danger! Danger! Danger!

The name YoMac came from combining the empire\'s name: Yodan, and the great Royal name: MacLaine.

Grand, Tidy and Spacious.

Those were the words that came in Sirius\'s mind when entering the estate. It was an old estate that was now remodeled and fixed up with more up-to-date technologies.

It was not today that this estate was built. One should know that this port estate has been in Yodan for hundreds and hundreds of years now. And when Baymard built the Trans Bay-Yodan port within the Coastal city of Memphis, the estate port here in the Capital became even busier than ever.

To put it simply, after Baymard emerged and Sirius became ruler, one of the first things he did was to assign this estate to be the port to be an Official one in charge of official Imports and Exports.

So no matter what ships arrive and no matter where they dock around the massive lollipop-shaped dock, their surroundings, they must always report to this place to report their entry and go through the paperwork for what goods they are importing or exporting out.

Baymard\'s layout is large and wide iron crisscross fences that span over the entire place. So if one wants to leave the docks, they must pass through the massive Baymardian Seaport building.

Seeing the ingenuity of Landon\'s actions, many rulers, including Sirius, also followed suit, enclosing their port regions too.

But you can\'t build wooden fences, since they will obscure the vision of the guards on the other side of the fence. So what did they do? Of course they bought bulk quantities of the crisscross metal fences. And they too firmly planted them around the ports they felt were important, like the Ports within their Capitals. And beside these high fences on both sides were towering guard posts also in place to watch over the place. What\'s more, on the walls facing the port, one could see an influx of 3 times more guards on duty, watching everything down below with scrutinizing gazes. Yes, the security here was high and intense. The fences enclosed several docks and port buildings and estates, so those coming in can only leave through the second official estate not too far from this one.

Today, Sirius\'s goal was to inspect both Estates: The Yodan Seaport Estate for entry and exit of visitors... And this YoMac Estate for imports, exports, paying dock fees, documentation and so on.

Sirius massaged his chin thoughtfully, knowing that after Airplanes become a thing, the docks and ports will indeed become super busy, especially when many merchants will bring imported Baymardian goods that arrive via air, hoping to have them sent out of the Capital to nearby regions.

Understand that since December, they have tasted the sweetness of using airplanes for Cargo delivery.

Yes~...

Cargo has been delivered to and fro Yodan\'s airport for over 4 and a half months now. All merchants living in the Capital swear it was the fastest thing. Of course, Baymard sent out a list of cargo types allowed via air.

So although they still used the Baymardian ships to send merchandise, they had  to admit that air shipment was super fast and great for littler shipments that come in just a day or so.

Who doesn\'t love this?

(^0^)

Anyway, Baymard promised that after airplanes get opened to the public, the number of Cargo shipping planes will also double. So you can imagine how busy the Capital\'s ports will be with all these merchants doing double shipments out to the neighboring cities, towns, and villages in Yodan\'s central region.

What\'s more, don\'t forget that the Airplanes will also be made available for everyone. No doubt there will be many people who arrive by plane leaving the Capital to nearby destinations, or those entering the Capital via water to get aboard the planes.

Bottom line, a lot of fixing up and new policies were put up to accommodate the incoming changes. Despite stepping in during dark hours, Sirius could still see the estate\'s splendor. "Your Majesty, the loading dock sites have been expanded as per requested. Now, we can offload and load 3 times more than we previously could in one session."

"We also have more storage containers available, as well as an expanded underground network of space too. We plan to store lighter packages underground."

For obvious reasons, since transporting heavier cargo to and fro the surface and the underground areas was such a hassle.

The Overseer, as well as several others, were quick to inform and show Sirius and his group all that they have put in place in preparation for the upcoming congestion the port will soon face.

As for the shipping containers, they kept these shipping containers in large massive warehouses, lifting and stacking them up using the same pulley systems used to light giant stones when building castle walls, mansions, or putting giant sculptures in place.

The shipping containers they had were a mix of their own uniquely built wooden ones, as well as those from Baymard.

"Your majesty, we\'ve also hired a lot more staff and trained them for over 5 months now."

"Good," Sirius massaged his chin, satisfied with everything so far. Although everyone here spoke lightly, one shouldn\'t underestimate the size of the Capital\'s entire Lollipop-shaped port.

Know that everyday, an average of 5,000 ships are constantly reported in the premises, some leaving and some docking.

Of course, they don\'t all have to dock close to the docks, as there are several Harbor poles within the waters where they could anchor their ships by.

This alone should let anyone understand how massive the port was. But with the arrival of airplanes in the Capital, they can expect to have a lot more ships coming and leaving daily.

Seeing how much more construction and expansion the estate underwent made Sirius\'s worries grow subtle.

"Overseer Blarfangarf, you\'ve done well. Everything is to my liking! Hear my words! I shall reward the construction teams, as well as you and your men for a job well done. See to it that you visit the Palace in no more than 7 days for your rewards!"

Hahahahahaha~

"Many thanks, Your Majesty!" Many people smiled so hard, their cheeks were already swelling in pain. After many months of hard work, it felt so good to finally get an approval from the Big Man himself. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

But while everyone was chipper and happy after the tour had come to an end, Sirius suddenly saw something flicker in the air, causing his soul to nearly fly out of his body.

"Take Cover!! Protect the civilians first. Enemy ATTACK!!!"
