Rebirth of India: Superior

Text Chapter 351: King for a Day (Part 2)

There are more than three pocket countries in the world with a land area of ​​less than 10,000 square kilometers. It is difficult for them to develop large-scale modern agriculture and highly advanced industries, but they have their own unique development models. For example, Liechtenstein is located in the Alps between Austria and Switzerland and has a large tourism industry due to its beautiful natural scenery. In addition, it is the world's largest exporter of stamps, and stamps have become the country's main industry.

In fact, many pocket countries have their own characteristics in the national exhibition. For example, Andorra is a tax haven in Europe. There are more than one duty-free shops and shopping malls across the country. Shopping is one of the main purposes of tourists visiting Andorra. The Principality of Monaco has golden beaches on the Mediterranean and a highly developed gambling industry. Its largest city, Monte Carlo, is one of the three largest gambling cities in the world, along with Macau and Las Vegas. Luxembourg benefits from a particularly developed financial industry, with more than 2 banks and more than 2 investment funds. Brunei in Asia has become one of the richest regions in the world with its rich oil and natural gas resources.

After breakfast the next day, Shakru officially started his career as king, first taking a luxury carriage to the government building where he worked.

This luxurious royal carriage is modeled after the Queen's golden carriage, also known as the royal golden carriage. Although the name contains the word "gold", and it is indeed gorgeous and exquisite, it is not made of gold, but the wood is painted the color of gold. It is said that the Queen of England's car is made of gilded wood.

The entire carriage is 36 meters high, more than seven meters long and weighs four tons. It is decorated with cherubs, crowns, palm trees, Poseidon sculptures with human faces and dolphin tails, etc., making it look noble and exquisite. The groom driving the carriage is also wearing a neat and straight tuxedo, and everything is full of royal atmosphere and medieval style.

The interior of the carriage is very modern. Six hydraulic stabilizing devices are installed to ensure the stability of the carriage while traveling. Electric windows and an interior heating device are also installed. Classical and modern are achieved in this car. Perfect blend.

While Shaklu was sighing with emotion about this carriage, the "temporary queen" Amisha who was riding in the carriage with him suddenly pointed to a road sign on the side of the road and said to Shaklu in surprise: "Brother Shaklu, look at that. The street sign actually has your name engraved on it!”

Shakru followed Amisa's instructions and looked out of the car window. Sure enough, a road sign on the roadside clearly wrote the words "Shakru Street", and the coachman loudly said in front: "Dear King Sir, to celebrate your accession to the throne, there are now three streets in the country named after you!”

At this time, Shaklu remembered that there is indeed such a content in the tourism project that the streets can be named after the "temporary king", so the street signs on these roads are basically changed every day, but if you look carefully , you will find that it is easy to replace, because for the convenience of daily replacement, the paint is easy to clean. Not only that, every policeman he met on the road saluted Shakru with a respectful look!

Unknowingly, the whole city, oh, no, the whole country has been turned around in a circle. This is not because the carriage runs fast, but because the country is too small. According to the Northeastern dialect, it is "eating a handful of melon seeds." You’ll have enough time to travel across the country in one day.”

At this time, Shakru said to Amisa with emotion: "If I had known that there was such a good place, then our wedding would have been held here. Let's have a real wedding of a king and a queen!"

"Yes, yes, I had known that we should have held weddings here. Brother Shakru, you don't know. It almost tortured me to death when preparing for the wedding in those few days. Why do we have so many weddings in India? Rules?" Amisa also said with regret.

At this time, the coachman joked and said: "We can provide king's wedding services here, but it must be booked in advance. You are welcome to come again next time."

Soon the carriage arrived at the Liechtenstein Government Building. Speaking of which, this building is also very interesting. It is probably the only one in the world. The whole building has only three floors. The top floor is the Prime Minister's Office, and the second floor is the Prime Minister's Office. Court, and the first floor turned out to be a prison!

Can you imagine a king and a prisoner living in the same building? Is there something indescribably strange?

However, according to the actual situation of this country, this situation is not a big deal, because this country is so small that there are no thieves, the crime rate is basically zero, and there are generally less than ten prisoners in the prison, so the first floor The prison is already rich and abundant. It has even happened that government workers were locked in a building because they worked overtime, but it turned out that the criminals helped open the door, because by the end of the day, the jailer had already gone home.

The reason is that there are too few people here, and they basically all know each other. You would be embarrassed to attack someone you know, right? Therefore, most prisoners make mistakes unintentionally, and their crimes are not serious.

In the office of the Prime Minister, several documents that required approval were prepared for the temporary king Shakru. Of course, they could not be real documents. Most of them were introductions to Liechtenstein and various documents. After reading the introduction of this tourism project, Shakru was very emotional.

It is normal for a pocket country to develop tourism, but it is an innovation to engage in "whole country rental" like Liechtenstein. This is like operating the entire country as a high-end travel agency, including food, accommodation and entertainment. It is really suitable for some institutions or Couples hold weddings and other large events.

It is no wonder that Prince Hans Adam II is one of the richest men in the European royal family, as the head of a country can take such courage to promote the development of tourism. Moreover, he did not have much money when he succeeded to the throne in 1989, and it was purely earned through the management of these years.

Now Liechtenstein is not only rich in king, but also has the highest income of the people in Europe, and also won nine gold medals in the Olympics, of course, all of which are snow sports, after all, this is still a ski resort.

Because they had a lot of fun here, Shakru thanked Benon for the recommendation and took Amisa to visit Switzerland and Austria, until the annual strange "Olympic Games" in India was approaching, and then returned to India.
