Munitions Empire

Chapter 1125: 1046 Elf Princess

Iryn could see the bustling port outside through the glass windows of the ship’s hull, witnessing such a colossal harbor for the first time, with docks coming into view ever since she started looking, and without end in sight.

Those enormous cranes were busy at work, hoisting one giant rectangular container after another from the massive ships—such a sight is not common at the Elf’s Southwater Port.

From time to time, one could hear the loud blast of steam whistles, signaling the arrival or departure of a behemoth vessel over ten thousand tons from this place called Linshui.

For several years now, the world’s number one port is no longer Brunas. Or rather, since the Great Tang Group left Brunas, that place is no longer bustling.

Whether it’s the Dragon Harbor of the Great Tang Empire, Dongwan Port of the Great Tang Empire, Linshui of the Great Tang Empire, Beiyuan Port of the Great Tang Empire, or Nanshan Port of the Great Tang Empire… all are now more prosperous than Brunas. Now, the world’s top three ports are completely dominated by the Great Tang Empire competing with itself.

In terms of size, Linshui Port of the Great Tang Empire is obviously the largest in the world right now, where its giant docks can accommodate warships over 100,000 tons, and its various models of cranes outnumber the combined total of any other two ports.

This is because it has already begun to transition to container ship services: This efficient transportation scheme is now only used on a large scale in the ports within the Great Tang Empire, and while other countries’ ports are also increasing their container lifting equipment, they are obviously not as rapidly popularizing it as the Tang Empire.

The new container transportation has increased efficiency and reduced transport costs: As soon as this mode of transportation emerged, it almost completely replaced the old maritime lifting method.
