This is a huge expenditure.
But it is worth.
Victoria is sizing up single-handed sword on hand carefully-- this is Gawain after the official signing contract gives her gift, this and she is almost exactly the same in each saber that on the Cecil soldier sees the sword, the only difference was on the sword hilt erased the Cecil family symbol, changed into the Northern Region Wilde Family clan emblem.
It very excellent, has the firm line and meticulous pattern, the surface almost cannot see the slight defect, as an equipment of mass production, it even in weapon compared with royal family Knight Corps hand also excellent, moreover here also has tens of thousands and its exactly the same weapon, among them is also exactly right.
This uniform feeling made Victoria feel one type „strength”.
This certainly is not the Cecil highest-quality weapon, because will be silly to press the bottom the armament to take oneself except for situation nobody of having no alternative to change money, but this now weapon on hand is at least better than Wang Guojun, this sufficed.
Looks that at present holds to fall into the thinking single-handed sword Northern Region Duchess, in the Gawain mind actually appears from Gawain? The Cecil memory, has he thought of once first-generation Northern Region Grand Duke Snow? Wilde, that formidable mage when last time visits Southern Region, once with Gawain? Cecil had a lengthy conversation all night.
At that time four boundary Duke systems was established, the central kingdoms and four Grand Duke countries were working as one to construct Ainz, that Northern Region Duke asked at that time looked like very strange issue: If some day, the kingdom biggest threat no longer is outside magic tide, but is four boundaries protects Duke itself, what to do should that?
Snow? Wilde craves in studying the history, particularly the Gondor Empire aristocrat history, what hidden danger he perhaps from at that time had no alternative in four boundary Duke systems to see, what a pity past Gawain? Cecil cannot give him any answer-- three days later, Gawain? Cecil died in the battlefield.
Gawain recovers, he looks at Victoria, seemingly asked a question very much at will: „You think that the Ainz crisis will end to end because of the civil war?”
„If we won, that” Victoria will gain ground, to as if state that the fact tone said that „Wales? Moren is the royal family legitimate successor, so long as Wang Guojun can defeat the Eastern Region rebel army, then the Ainz aristocrat definitely will unite, so long as the aristocrats unite, Ainz once more will become a whole, the crisis will naturally be easily solved.”
„...... I understood,” Gawain nods, „we return to the city first.”
Victoria blinks, under the tranquil facial features is hiding a confusion, she felt a disappointment from the Gawain slight expression indistinctly, but thought that possibly was an misconception, she looks that the opposite party has taken a step to leave, then has not closely examined, but was tightens two steps to arrive at that demon to lead by the car(riage), pointed at the vehicle to ask: „Duke Cecil, your this type is called the demon leads the thing of car(riage)...... Also sells?”
Gawain stops the footsteps, slightly some accidents/surprises looked at Victoria one, afterward shows a smile: „Sooner or later will sell, but now is not good, we could not have made that many to come, at least must wait for a half year. If you want to buy the demon to lead the car(riage), after that goes back, should cultivate/repair the kingdom main road first.”
Victoria deeply lowered the head: „My meeting, the path is the life of kingdom, when the snow melts, my first matter repairs the kingdom main road.”
After returning to the feudal lord mansion, Victoria then said goodbye to leave quickly, she must return to the autumn palace, calculates a Wang Guojun specifically to put out how much money to come to purchase the armament now, but Gawain has not stayed in the feudal lord mansion, he then rode to lead the car(riage) in the entrance demon quickly, and ordered to go to the merchant area to the aide of driving.
The mechanical vibrations transmit from the chassis of vehicle, sit, in this slightly obviously surpasses the time style the demon to lead in the car(riage), Gawain shouted the tone gently, but on since his chair suddenly surges a shadow, the Amber form appears from the shadow.
„The appearance of that Duchess anxiety, Amber is blinking the eye probably very much”, although does not know before her, where observes in secret, but this fellow has shaken around Gawain obviously, „she does not fear the preparation, when the dowry money pasted.”
„That is the money, even if half can with the commodity conversion, has exceeded the bearing capacity of St. Sunil treasury, Victoria still chose to accept, it seems like she hopes that really this civil war can quickly end, hoping Wang Guojun can win as soon as possible.”
„That has not seen your pit money time tenderhearted,” the Amber opens the mouth comes, „really being able to get down hand, that many is also your younger generation, moreover as the aristocrat was also a good person, finally you did not hit the discount.”
Gawain looked at Amber one, slowly said: „...... Wang Guojun could not rescue Ainz.”
These gold coins also can only be used to pad the battlefield on Holy Spirit Plain in Wang Guojun's hands slowly, makes them consume with it senselessly, might as well make them turn into the demon to lead the industrial the gear and lever.
Amber blinks, afterward feels the chin: „Do you want to go to do now?”
„Saw another batch unable to save the Ainz person similarly.”
The demon leads the car(riage) across the administrative area of Cecil city, across the ring-like main road, then arrived at west the merchant area situated in city quickly, in a while, it then stopped before a tall brand-new building--
The Cecil merchant clubhouse, specifically is used to receive the place of great merchant honored guest.
Behind the window of building two buildings, keeps the young aristocrat of brown short hair calmly to look at the sound on street, after seeing the demon leads the car(riage) to approach, he retrocedes one step, left nearby the window.
In the room several other people, they put on the fine silk or the fabric material clothes, don't the brooch or is bringing the mechanical pocket watch, seems is the merchant dresses up, but from their extremely vigilant and swift and fierce look as well as the graces imposing manner, then can judge these people not only the merchant is so simple.
One of them noticed that brown sends the young people to leave window, stands up the inquiry: „Young master, does outside have the situation?”
„Does not need to be worried, was he came,” brown sent the young people to nod, the sinking sound said, „only had one to accompany, should quick come up.”
Several people in room relax slightly, afterward and brown sends the young people to arrive around the door together, calmly is waiting.
A moment later, the sound of footsteps transmits......
In the room in merchant clubhouse, Gawain saw these special guests.
In the past three days, he lets Victoria and other King's city visitors visits the market, the visit city street, visits place that all arrange, but he has not been idling, he at the matter of doing, is these special guest contacts.
The door behind is closed, Gawain looks in front of own brown sends the young people, slightly nodded of: „Belk Marquis, it seems like you obeyed my suggestion, has not run all over the place.”
Brown sends Young people Eastern Region Duke Silas? Loren eldest son, Belk? Loren bent the waist, salutes to Gawain by the status of younger generation, other people also in abundance salute, but after saluting, this just over 20 years old then had achieved the middle rank young people unable to bear say: „When does not feel better in the room.”
„Leaves the room more troublesome,” Gawain brings Amber to sit down on the room central sofa, looks that similarly in Belk who oneself do take a seat at present? Loren said, „the Eastern Region Duke successor appears in the Cecil city, this is not the good signal, moreover I believe that Victoria is certainly glad to let Silas while this opportunity? Loren loses beloved son-- you may not hit her.”
Belk slightly somewhat irritably moves body, although he wants to control oneself expression very much, but he time in this aspect was inferior obviously Victoria so reaches a high degree of proficiency: „You receive the envoy who King's city has sent in the feudal lord mansion, makes us hide among the merchants, this is...... Expressed your manner?”
Gawain could not bear smile, he looks at the present young people-- Belk was a good young fellow, the politeness, had the talent, was very intelligent, but was obviously rash and deficient experience, he was unable to grasp very much with the skill that the person negotiated, but considered his age, did not have the means him and compared with Northern Region Duchess: „confessed that so-called Wang Guojun was in my opinion same as Eastern Region army, the junior fought not to need not to call to comment the guardian to wrong, but considered that geographical position, Southern Region and Holy Spirit Plain relation obvious ratio and Eastern Region were much stronger, moreover their time visited from long before had publicized.”
Here him, then said: „As for you...... I retain limited trust to you, does this look merely in Anthony? In Loren friendship.”
„I overstep, but you sooner or later will notice that we are the sincerity want to save this kingdom,” Belk serious said, „ indulges in Holy Spirit Plain in the peaceful kingdom aristocrats cannot realize the crisis, they cannot see the change of Typhon, cannot see the change of world, they only know that all night feasts as well as plunders the last copper coin in even common people, but we know--
„Typhon is reforming the land system, the spread education, the technological development, is reorganizing the army, develops New Territories, their common people have been able each week to eat to a meat, but our people are insufficient including the black bread in the winter. Even if Ainz makes vigorous efforts to catch up now, is very difficult to overtake Typhon, our only outlets rapidly let the concentration of power of Ainz to a powerful new king hand, making Typhon dread, even if only dreads for ten years, even five years, we have the opportunity......”
Gawain broke this to be filled with the warm young people: „Is Edmund in your mouth ‚powerful new king’?”
„Prince Edmund far-seeing originality and rallying point,” Belk? Loren said earnestly, in tone many admirations, „he fought the reward law, the road building bill and commercial bill in plowing of Eastern Region implementation and opens up the village system to produce the results, so long as Holy Spirit Plain is willing to send not a blind aristocrat to look at one, they will also realize who was qualified King--, but they did not dare obviously.”
It seems like this young Mr. Marquis has not known the relation of Prince Edmund back and All Things Finally Die Society from the start, does not know that Francis II death truth-- possibly is his performing skill is also excellent, pretends not knowing intentionally?
Gawain does not care about Belk to know or not know anything specifically, he and other opposite party said patiently, this nods: „I also know probably-- because I know these, I am willing to try to you trust, allows the merchants in duchy to go to Eastern Region to establish the trade route. Must know, I have lain down for 700 years in the grave, I knew these people who trusts basically already not, regarding anybody of this time and influence--, even if were the latter people of past good friend-- I must understand was good.”
Belk sits when the sofa, unconsciousness is stroking gently own index finger knuckle, this seems he organizes the glossary subconscious movement: „Yes, I and my father understand this point...... Mr. Codd has made the profound impression on us, the medicament that he brings is we are urgently needed, my father sends me to come, to discuss the matter in this aspect with you......”
„We couple of days ago were discussing that this issue,” Gawain nods, „I know that your meanings, you have especially giant medicament gap, therefore not only wants to order the magnanimous alchemy medicament, but also wants to buy one set of industrial plant equipment, but also wants Cecil to help you train person of a number of run machinery...... To be honest, the thing that you request are really many.”
„We have no alternative.” Belk? Loren said.
Young Marquis knows, what he requests is sensitive „technology is basic”, is Duke Cecil the thing that is difficult to comply with, however before embarking, Prince Edmund then explained to him all these Necessities alchemy the thing of medicament affecting army life or death cannot be under the control of others throughout, only then makes Eastern Region have the productivity, can guarantee that will interrupt after some day Southern Region suddenly the medicament will supply will not fall into the extremely passive aspect.
Two days ago negotiations in the impass in this issue reaching, but Duke Cecil came today, that explained that this issue perhaps also some discussed.
Gawain calmly is thinking-- seems is very as if puzzled and hesitant, nearby Amber cannot bear the opens the mouth: „Our machines pay the huge price to study, that is the knowledge, spends money, but cannot buy......”
Gawain has compared the thumb to Amber secretly, on the face full is serious: „But Eastern Region after all is also Ainz part.”
„But if we helped them construct factory, they turned head directly the technical learned, not only produced, what to do hasn't allowed our potion to enter a country?”
Belk said immediately: „Takes an oath by the family bloodlines, Eastern Region will not do such violates the knight spirit the matter, Prince Edmund before I embark then has confessed that we establish our factory to prepare emergency requirement, we still needed the Southern Region alchemy medicament.”
Gawain does not believe the commitment of Edmund, but his face trust nodded: „I am willing to believe you.”
Afterward he a thread of conversation revolution: „But I must protect the Southern Region interests, protects to give loyalty to the benefit of my merchants-- if, therefore wants to establish the medicament factory in Eastern Region, I have a condition: The merchant who must assign by me and you jointly put up a factory.”
„Jointly puts up a factory?”
„Yes, leaves 50% costs respectively, jointly establishes, the joint administration factory, the income must divide equally. The Southern Region business representative will protect the core technologies to be insufficient to leak in this process, will carry also on the technical guidance to you, this is I can accept yielded most greatly.”
Belk has hesitated, afterward sets out with side several people in a low voice and discusses fast.
A moment later, he returns to the seat: „...... I agreed, I can represent my father and Prince Edmund will at this matter.”
Gawain smiles: „Is very good, we must recomputate a price......”
After the final price was estimated that during young Marquis fell into was astonished.
„These many?!”
„This is not very normal?” Gawain spreads out the hand, „, if establishes Alchemy Factory to be very easy, I do not need at this matter hesitant until today. Moreover I must help the factory that you construct be possible more than one, the quantity of first batch of alchemy medicament you must purchase is equal to the sum total of traditional alchemy medicament the past for three years Ainz throughout produced. Thinks that traditional alchemy medicament price, you will discover that the present price at all was not anything.”
„This...... Truly so,” Belk strokes gently oneself knuckle once more, on the face is showing awkward look, „, but...... confessed that this price a little exceeds we anticipated.”
Gawain said lightly: „This is because you set the request outside plan.”
Afterward he also proposed before and Victoria have said method: Charges against half cash with the commodity.
However this time, Belk reveals very awkward appearance.
Eastern Region after all is only Eastern Region, although army is strong, the Extraordinary proportion in army is also much higher than Wang Guojun, but delivers from the territory area, the population as well as the resources, it is impossible and occupies Holy Spirit Plain, there is „Western Region Augari Tribe Kingdom” compared with Wang Guojun of trade line support.
Obviously, their „paying capacity” is a problem very much.
The negotiations as if reached the impass, but Gawain broke suddenly silent: „A plan.”
Young Belk raised the head immediately: „What plan do you have?”
„In the Eastern Region southwest region, approaches Southern Region and Dark Mountain Range triangle crossroad place, the piece is called ‚the Baisha hill’ region?” Gawain said at a moderate pace, „it is said there produces the iron and copper, few demons lead the crystal mineral lode.”
„Do you want the Baisha hill?” Belk opened the eye, afterward immediately shakes the head, „please I reject-- this is impossible. Although that region has not developed, but it is Eastern Region in the future the long-term ore deposit, moreover is the Eastern Region precious territory. Receives in exchange for the temporary alchemy medicament and factory with permanent lands, this price is too big.”
„I do not plan to want it,” Gawain has interrupted Belk's words, „I only mine it some time-- five years, Southern Region mines for five years in the Baisha hill, afterward there your. According to the situation, how this civil war should also end five years later at present again, by that time all settle down, we happen to can start to enter a new time.”
Looks on the Gawain face that serious earnest expression, the Eastern Region future successor, young Belk Marquis suddenly hesitates.
Five years......
He sets out once more, discussed fast with the advisers as well as the subordinates of accompanying.
After several minutes, he returns to front of Gawain once more.
Should unable to mine many.
„We agreed.”
