Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 654 Family Expansion Plan

?654 Family Expansion Plan

When they were five minutes away from arriving in Martell Village, the group on the train commanded by Vicente felt the vehicle begin to slow down. At the same time, they could already see the outskirts of the village. 𝘪𝘳.𝒸𝘰𝑚

While Benson and the blacksmiths there were actively chatting about their success and already talking about things that could be improved and others that were already to their liking, they entered the village area.

The villagers passing the street where the train was arriving stopped everything they were doing to watch that grandiose vehicle arrive in their village.

Most of the residents had no idea what the Fuller family was planning, so several of them were surprised when they saw the vehicle slowly entering the village.

Children saw this and found it very interesting. Some of them soon started to run after the train alongside the railings that protected the track. .

When Vicente’s train finally came to a halt inside the village’s loading and unloading station, dozens of villagers soon began to crowd around, curious to see what it was all about.

When Vicente switched off the machinery of the first train, he sighed and smiled in satisfaction, having completed another of his objectives.

As he returned to his group, he said. “I will show you how to drive the train on the journey back to Millfall. I managed to get a good understanding of how it works on this short trip, so I’ll teach you so that you can pass it on to our men in the future.

All in all, I don’t think there are many things that need to be changed in this project to make it work. Let’s observe our results over the next few weeks before we start our next project.”

“Where would it go?” Shelby asked.

“I plan to connect Millfall station to my future Metal City. It’s not far from here, so that will be our next destination.” Vicente said, imagining that this would create a regular flow of people to that place, which would promote his idea even more.

“When will we start this new project?” Benson asked his disciple.

“In two months, I want you to analyze this train and what we’ve done between the village and Millfall in that time and adjust the plans for this line between the Metal City and Millfall. As soon as I get to Saltstar City, I’ll send men to help you choose the land we’ll use to run the railroad.

In the meantime, I’ll occasionally mine metals near Saltstar City for you and send them to Millfall. But I’ll be joining you at certain points in the project. I won’t be with you for as long as I would for this experiment, but I won’t be gone for long periods.”

The blacksmiths nodded in understanding, aware that Vicente couldn’t give up his life to become a railway builder.

“What do we do now?” One of the blacksmiths asked. “We’re going back to Millfall.”

“Yes, but not right away,” Vicente said. “We’ll wait for some of our contacts in the village. I want them to experience the journey back to Millfall and take their findings to the noble families who have plantations on the outskirts of the village.”

In theory, it was Vicente who would take all the produce produced on the outskirts of the village from this area and take it to where it would be sold. He didn’t intend to earn coins straight away by making deals with noble families. He was actually going to replace the method of transporting resources between the village and Millfall.

But why did he want to present his project to noble families?

Because he did not trade around 65% of the food resources, 80% of the cultivation resources, and 70% of the basic materials produced by the province, these many resources were traded by other merchants and, as such, transported by other groups.

But if he drew the attention of the province’s noble families to how he could transport his resources, he could get new deals all over the territory!

Shelby and the blacksmiths there understood what he wanted and quickly left the train to wait for the people who would surely soon be at the station door.

…

As Vicente and his group had expected, in less than an hour since they had arrived in the village, everyone was talking about the train, and the subordinates of the nobles who had plantations nearby were already there talking to him.

After welcoming the men and women who had agreements with him to obey him within the village, Vicente invited them on a trip to Millfall so that they could better introduce this new alternative to their families.

Everyone was excited by the news, so no one would turn down such an offer.

Less than an hour after they arrived there, Vicente’s train was full of people, with more than 20 individuals in the front vehicle and 15 people in the back vehicle, which Vice and his staff had driven here from Millfall.

Shelby and Molly were going to split between these two vehicles to explain to Vicente’s guests a little more about the wonder called the train while he and his blacksmiths were going to travel around the machinery area.

Vicente was going to make Benson the driver on this trip. He would stand next to his master while the other blacksmiths would watch the man as Vice gave him advice on how to drive the vehicle.

It wasn’t difficult to drive a train, so the vehicle would soon be on the move towards Millfall.

The passengers invited by Vicente would take advantage of the trip to observe the beautiful views they could have traveling in a vehicle like that.

For the next few tens of minutes, the group would marvel at the experience but also at the speed of this transportation.

When they arrived in Millfall later, they would all be convinced that this was the future of transportation!

…

“Incredible!”

“Magnificent! I never thought I’d travel so fast between the village and Millfall!”

“Yes, we also could see some beautiful sights, and all very safely. Not a single magical creature dared approach the vehicle during the entire journey!”

“Haha, those wild beasts watched us from afar as if they were pets!”

The passengers on Vicente’s train commented to each other as they got out of the vehicle after arriving at Millfall station.

Meanwhile, Vicente left the train’s machinery area next to his blacksmiths.

“Well, driving a train is as simple as that. You just need to have the necessary mana and know when to accelerate and when to brake. We will make signs along the railroad track to make our men’s work easier. That will prevent accidents.” He said to the group of 3rd stage blacksmiths.

“That’s a good idea…” They continued talking until Vicente went to exchange a few words with the people who had come from Martell Village with them.

He promised that they would return to the village by train. They only had to wait a few minutes. Benson would follow the blacksmiths back to the village, as it would give another of his companions a chance to learn how to drive the train in practice.

They intended to do this for the rest of the day, so Vicente, Shelby, and Molly would soon be left behind at Millfall station.

He had no intention of staying in the city. After saying goodbye to these two women, he would set off alone from this place with the intention of finally returning to Saltstar City!
