The next day, Landon woke up with a bright smile on his face.
After dealing with the likes of Alec and his team, how could he not be happy?
Typically, Alec and his crew would"ve been banned from entering Baymard for trying to attack an official on duty.
.
But due to the fact that not many people were accustomed... or had even heard of the rules here, it would be somewhat unfair to just ban them at their first mistake.
Hence everyone would be given one more shot again.... since at this time, they should"ve all felt the consequences of going against the rules here.
And by then, if they still hadn"t learnt anything.... then for sure they would get banned.
.
Each month, and year... the rules had to be revised to suit the needs of the people and all the changes that had occurred in Baymard.... especially now that Baymard could protect itself.
Bottom line, Alec and his crew had just one more shot at getting into Baymard.... that is if they followed the instructions there at the port.
.
But of course, this one-chance policy only pertains to the Ports.
If they committed murder or did any horrendous crimes while in Arcadina, they would be punished by the laws "Non-Baymardian citizens".... no exception.
One shouldn"t think that these punishments were light just because they were given to non-Baymardian citizens.
Hehehe..... well, he could only hope that Alec and his team were smart enough not to do anything stupid while staying here.
Because if so.... then they would have a taste of thos treatment for themselves first hand.
.
Anyway.... he decided to not think about them anymore, as he had a ton of things that needed his attention at the moment.
He was the king after all... and even if Alec requested for an audience with him, he was truly too busy to see that arrogant father of his any time soon.
Like he had said, there were several other things that needed his immediate attention right now.
Hence he quickly went to the Construction industry to meet up with a few industrial overseers and their secretaries there.
Yup..... it was time to make Hot Air Balloons!!
.
"Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap!"
Walking into the meeting room, Landon was immediately greeted by Tim, Wiggins, and Sophia.
They were the 3 overseers that would be in charge of jointly producing this product.
And seating directly behind them, were their secretaries... who were there to take down the meeting minutes or note down any important points for their bosses later on.
For the hot air balloon"s official manufacturing site, Landon had decided to use one of the sectors within Tim"s industry..... and allocate it for them.
In short, these balloons would also be used for festivities and other recreational purposes as well.
.
What he wanted, was to make a new attraction site, that allowed one to ride on these hot air balloons and have a sky tour from District C (where the schools, government offices, banks and other service spots are) to District D (where the Go-kart racing fields, car stores, Malls, luxury hotels were) all the way to District G (where the national park, regular bars, regular motels and so on were.).
Of course regions like District A (palace region), district B (military training regions and Prison sites).... and the entire Coastal region, would be off limits to during the sky tour.
.
Typically, one would still be able to get a glimpse of these regions from afar... but it wouldn"t be very detailed.
So that was somewhat acceptable to Landon, as his enemies wouldn"t be able to take advantage of anytime.
Also, he had exempted District H from the tour, because it was closest to king"s landing..... since in a way, there were also major military buildings there as well.
So of course he wouldn"t bring the tour guests anywhere near any military sites.
Hence the tour was from District C to District G only.
For now... these regions were the only regions accessible to the public via sky tour.
.
When it came to those eligible enough to pilot these hot air balloons..... for sure, only those who can get their licenses would qualify for the job.
Even back on earth, no matter where these sort of attractions were.... all the pilots had licenses.
In the U.K, one had to be a valid Private license issued by the Civil Aviation authority, before they could give people tours on these balloons.
The same requirement held true for the U.S, Australia, and several other countries.
.
These pilots need to be trained on situations like emergency landings, sending out h.e.l.l signals, parachuting the guests out in extremely dangerous situations.
Hence Landon was taking no chances when it came to safety.
Also, they had to properly learn how to maneuver these hot air balloons.... ensuring that they moved only between the regions that Landon had emphasized on, lest they accidentally flew out of Baymard instead.
.
In addition to all this, he needed these pilots to also be combat ready and very quick thinkers..... just in case someone tried to pull a fast one on them in the air.
He wanted them to know that without them, these balloons wouldn"t land.
So no matter how much they were threatened while in air.... they as the master of the sky, could get out of any threatening situation if need be.
Because no one would really kill the pilot, unless whatever they were piloting had finally landed.
He would also give them emergency devices just for such situations as well.
Hence with all this said.... not just anyone would be allowed to pilot these hot air balloons.
.
"Good morning your majesty!" All 3 overseers and secretaries said, while hurriedly giving Landon 90 degree bow in respect.
Today... the overseers were somewhat impatient and overly excited, when they thought about this hot air balloon project.
Will this entire thing really work?
I mean.... could man really fly?
