Afterward, the nobles of Kadlo Province and Sailop Province took turns signing and stamping the "Curisco-Qixing Trade Agreement."
A short while later, the "Curisco-Qixing Trade Agreement," bearing the names and seals of over a hundred nobles, was completed. From this moment onward, the Curisco-Cadro-Qixing Highway was officially open.

Any noble who signed the trade agreement could issue passage plaques according to rank: Barons could issue three, viscounts could issue nine, while Viscount Qixing and the Count of Curisco could issue fifteen.
For merchant caravans displaying passage plaques, caravans with fifteen carriages or fewer would be exempt from tolls.
