Chapter 1133 Welcome to the Future! (I)



The carriage sped along the smooth road, while Oglan sat in a chair, looking at the scenery outside and yawning out of boredom.

As the head of the Platinum Chamber of Commerce, Oglen has already achieved success and fame. Golden Bay has been on the right track. Through the control of Golden Bay's freight, the Platinum Family has gained unimaginable wealth and prestige. As a result, Oglen's worth has also risen. Now all she has to do is find a good husband, establish a happy family, and then have children to raise the next generation.

And now, she was sitting in this carriage, speeding through the streets of the City of Thousand Towers, the capital of the Kingdom of Magic.

"Sister, do you think there will be any good things on display at this magic exchange meeting?"

The younger sister sitting opposite Oglan was swinging her legs idly while casually starting a topic to kill time.

"I don't know what good stuff will be exhibited... But, after all, there will be a lot of good things at the Magic Exchange..."

For mages, the Magic Exchange is a place to exchange technical experience and achievements, but for merchants and rulers, the Magic Exchange is equally important. Here you can see the crystallization of the mages' wonderful ideas, and one of them may be able to make a lot of money.

"I really don't know when the magic car can actually be put into production."

Oglen's sister yawned and complained.

"I heard that thing runs much faster than a horse-drawn carriage, and it doesn't need to rest. I wish we could have bought the technology of the magic car back then."

"That's a lot of money, the family won't allow it, it's better for us to do business in raw materials."

"But this time, Lord Fang Zheng invited you to participate in the Magic Exchange Conference. Isn't it to cooperate with our Platinum Chamber of Commerce?"

"God knows what he is thinking."

Hearing this, Oglen was furious. She had been in that hellhole of Golden Bay for so long, but Fang Zheng had never looked at her, not even saying hello. Not long ago, she received a message from Fang Zheng. She thought that he had finally remembered that there was someone who worked hard to help him count money in Golden Bay, but when she opened the letter, she found out that he was discussing the next cooperation with the Platinum Chamber of Commerce.

That would have been fine, but Fang Zheng didn't even tell her what they were going to collaborate on. He just asked her to go to the Magic Exchange Conference to see for herself... Oglan was almost pissed off to death.

Can't you be a little considerate and caring towards me? Do you understand gentlemanly manners?

"I really don't know what kind of products Lord Fang Zheng will come up with to cooperate with our Chamber of Commerce...Isn't it those big and scary magic warships?"

"It shouldn't be. If it was military supplies, he wouldn't have to look for our Platinum Chamber of Commerce."

Oglen shook her head. In fact, she didn't believe Fang Zheng would choose to sell those magic warships. Although the Platinum Family was not involved in arms, Oglen knew that metal warships of that level were definitely not for sale. Even if they really wanted to buy and sell them, they would not be put in a public place like the magic exchange meeting.

At this moment, the carriage slowly stopped.

"We're here, Miss."

"Thanks."

After getting off the carriage, Oglen gave the driver a silver coin as a tip, then she looked around, lifted her skirt and walked to the gate of the park-like building in front of her. At this moment, the gate was full of people, but they were all in order. After all, those who were qualified to participate in the magic exchange meeting were all well-known figures, either the general managers of the Chamber of Commerce or representatives of various countries, and there were even some powerful people. Of course, these people would not be ignorant of even the most basic courtesy.

Oglan and his sister lined up in the queue. It didn't take them long to pass the inspection and enter the venue of the magic exchange meeting.

“Wow…”

As they entered the venue, Oglan's sister suddenly widened her eyes in surprise and exclaimed in amazement at everything in front of her.

At this moment, the entire park has been decorated by the wizard with magic and looks brand new. There are all kinds of beautiful magical lights and some magical devices that look magical everywhere.

Hmm... If Fang Zheng were to give his evaluation, this place would be more like a fairy tale paradise than an exchange meeting...

Compared to her sister who was attending the Magic Exchange Conference for the first time, Oglan was obviously calmer, after all, she had been here more than once. So Oglan took out the map given by the attendant at the door and began to search carefully.

"What are you looking for, sister?"

"I'm looking for the Tiandao Palace booth... eh?"

"What's wrong?"

"The Tiandao Palace's booth is actually in the center..."

Looking at the location of the Tiandao Palace booth indicated on the map, Oglan was also extremely surprised. She knew, of course, that a booth located in the core area meant that this was the technology that was "promoted" by the Magic Kingdom. What exactly did Mr. Fang Zheng come up with that made the Magic Kingdom willingly give him the core booth?

But soon, Oglan discovered that there was something even stranger.

Not far away, people walking on the road were holding a black rectangular object that looked like a slate. They were either yelling excitedly at the slate, or tapping and sliding their hands on the slate, and almost everyone had one of these things.

"Excuse me, what is this in your hand?"

Oglan couldn't hold back his curiosity, so he hurriedly stepped forward to stop a young nobleman and started asking questions. The young nobleman was a little unhappy when he was stopped, but when he saw Oglan's appearance, his attitude immediately changed.

"It's a very great invention, miss! Very great! It's called a cell phone!"

"cell phone?"

"Yes, it allows me to talk and communicate with people far away, and even take pictures and write letters! I never thought there would be such a magical thing! These mages... these mages are really amazing!"

“So magical?”

Anyone in the 21st century would probably sneer at the functions the young noble described. However, for people in this world whose long-distance communications are basically based on letters, it is simply earth-shattering!

"Is this... some kind of teleportation tool?"

"No, no, no, miss, this is much better than those magic props that have permanent teleportation!"

The young noble shook his head.

"You know, the magic props of constant communication can only communicate between two people, but after you have this machine, you can communicate with anyone! As long as you exchange phone numbers, you can communicate with each other at any time! Any time, any place, anyone!"

As he spoke, the young nobleman waved his hands excitedly. At this moment, Oglan noticed that the black slate in his hand suddenly emitted a pleasant musical sound. Then he saw the young nobleman stretch out his hand, slide it across the slate, and then put it to his ear.

"Hello, yes, it's me. I'm back at the gate now... Where are you? Oh? Is there something so good? I'll go check it out too. Wait for me!"

As he spoke, the young noble slid on the stone slab, then put down his phone and nodded politely to Oglan.

"Sorry, my friend is calling me, I have to leave first."

"Ah, where did you get this?"

"There's a window on the right over there. Everyone who enters the Magic Exchange will receive a free gift! You two ladies can also go and ask for it. This is definitely an experience not to be missed!"

After saying this, the young noble immediately turned and left, and Oglan watched him leave before turning around and grabbing his sister's hand.

"Let's go and see what this thing is."
