175. What kind of business are you going to do
A jīngcai duel is over. Although the crowd did not see the scene of the secret fight between Leo and Améng, they still felt dazzled. This is the duel between the top masters on the mainland, Aruka. After the duel, there was no idea to compete with Améng. I thought secretly, if it was replaced by him, there was no chance of winning, and Améng won easily between talks and laughs, and obviously did not do his best.
The captain of the Syrian city-state and the great warrior Muen looked stunned. He was once the captain of the guard team of the Charcoal Forest post when the flood broke out. He was rescued by Gore and saw the magic of this great magician. Later Gore became a 9th-level archer, commanding Hati's army invincible, Muen only served Gore in his heart, and regarded the old man as a godlike existence. Now there is another Améng, not only the generals of the Megatron countries, but also such a powerful combat force, so in Muen's mind, Améng became the second person worthy of worship and admiration.
As for Celia ’s obsession, she clearly knows how powerful her beast is, and the armored beast that Améng “summoned” is not weak, but obviously has not helped much. , Basically, it's just a fun. She could afford to put it down, and her pink face flushed when the staff was taken, but after the duel was relieved, she returned to the table to toast Améng.
Celia looked at Améng and felt extremely sorry, not because she lost, but to regret that talents like Améng were not used by Hattie. When she was toasting, she couldn't help but said: "General, you have left Egü, it is impossible to go back, let alone the Egyu Empire will send masters to chase you down. You once led the army to fight with Hati The former king, but you also contributed to the peace talks between the two countries and was admired by the soldiers of both sides.
Now that King Asher has succeeded, the Hatti political situation has recovered from the dng, and urgently needs you, a talent from Megatron. The Syrian city-state is your hometown, so why do n’t you work for your hometown when you come back? Lord Collie and Governor Xiao Mo ’s suggestion just now, please think about it again. I am also a court magician and the royal family of Hati, and I can recommend you jointly. King Asher also appreciates you very much, and you will be reused in Hatty "
A méng looked at the wine glass and said, "Princess Celia, thank you for your kindness. I came here to play for my hometown too. I just made an appointment with Lord Gore and I won this duel. The following should be Talk about our agreement, and I would like to ask Her Royal Highness to help. "
Celia is Asher ’s cousin, and Asher succeeds to the title of her Kingdom Princess, but to be honest, an ordinary Kingdom Princess is not as honorable as a great magician, so it is normal Everyone still calls her great magician, and Améng changed his title at this moment, which obviously has no meaning.
Governor Xiao Mo said: "General, you just said that there is a business. What kind of business does it require you to talk to us? If you want wealth or territory, just speak directly, you do n’t need yourself. Make money by doing business. "
A méng smiled: "The business I want to talk about is not to make money on my own, but to make money for the Syrian city-state. Duke Town is my hometown, and you all know that now the Syrian city-state has lost its right. The Duque Plain is controlled, and its northern and southeastern corners have city-states established by the Assyrian Kingdom and the Baron Kingdom.
Thousands of miles of fertile soil gradually developed in the long years. In the future, it can accommodate hundreds of thousands or even millions of people. It is rich and beautiful, but it will inevitably be accompanied by human disputes. I don't want the city of Salim, where friends and people live, to be destroyed before it is completely built, so I need support. The business I am going to talk about is of course related to this, the first is to build a road. "
Améng removed the cup and saucer, took out a map and placed it on the table, drawing a winding road from their current location to the east end of Charcoal Forest. He hopes to hire workers to open the road in Syrian city-state, build roadbeds along this route to fill the pavement, according to the scale that two carriages can go wrong, and also build three post on the way to the open area between the swamps for the caravans. rest.
Naturally, the workers are not allowed to do nothing. Améng will pay enough. Governor Xiao Mo watched it for a long time, and Shen Yín said, "This project can be large enough, I don't know how long it can be repaired?"
A méng smiled and said with a smile: "Since I beg you, I am willing to pay a lot of money, naturally the sooner the better, I hope to repair it within three months."
Governor Xiao Mo shook his head and said: "It ’s not possible to do so quickly. The organization of manpower is one thing, but there is no road in the swamp, and no local materials can be obtained. Many things have to be transported from all parts of the city state It is very difficult to repair it. "
Golie added a sentence while looking at the map: "If someone drives a narrow road that can be walked in advance, and then organize enough people to reinforce and widen it, it is not impossible to complete it in three months .... A méng, this one The road is winding and winding, as if it is only suitable for business and not for marching? "
A méng put his hands together: "No way, here is Black Fire Marsh. I can find such a way. It is already the credit of the Iron Armor Beastmaster. It is called Yunmeng and has lived in the swamp since childhood .... Yunmeng, Say hello to everyone "
After the duel, Yunmeng has been crawling on the open space by the swamp. Hearing the call of Améng, he lifted his huge body and nodded to everyone. Governor Xiao Mo frowned again and said: "This requires a large-scale recruitment of public husbands in the name of the official. How can I explain to Wang Du?"
A méng pointed to the Duke Plains on the map: "You have been governor for many years. There used to be only one Duke town with more than 2,000 residents. Most of the living supplies need to be transported from outside, but then one The small place is already an important source of taxation for the Syrian city-state .... Now the city-state is established there, but the city-states of Assyria and the Kingdom of Baron will not bring you any benefits, only this city of Salim can cooperate. "
In the original Duque town, there were only more than two thousand people. Apart from the old and weak fù, most of them did not exceed 800 registered miners. However, the **** stones they mined and the smelted jīng iron were already important properties of the Syrian city-state. . The area is rich in resources, and there are mineral veins in the nearby mountains. The Duke Town miners have known for a long time, but they do n’t have so many people to mine, but only choose the most abundant and easiest mining area to establish a mine.
If the Duque Plain is fully rehabilitated in the future, it will be able to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people. Even today ’s city of Salim can provide tens of thousands of people to live in. If this city-state develops, the most profitable is the Syrian city-state, because the products there must be shipped out, and the materials needed will also be transported in. After going through the road that Améng wanted to open, not only the benefits of trading, but also a large amount of tax revenue.
In the past few years after the Great Flood, the Syrian city-state has been very stable under the control of Gore. However, after two wars and losing the important source of taxable income, Duque Town is obviously not as prosperous and prosperous as before. Now Améng provides another opportunity to open up the source of wealth, but the status of Salim City is different from the original Duque Town.
Salem City not only needs support, but also more people. Nomads who lost their land in the Syrian city-state, lng explorers who have had their luck, and bankrupt craftsmen can all enter the city to find opportunities. As long as you obey the management there, you will be welcomed. The more prosperous the development of the city of Salem, the more prosperous this business will be, and the greater the profitability of the Syrian city-state.
The reason why Améng wanted to talk about this in person is because the attribution of the city of Salim is subtle. It is not under the jurisdiction of the Kingdom of Hati, but is a relationship of mutual benefit. In name, the Kingdom of Hati may not be openly accepted, but the fact that three city-states have been established on the Duque Plain is also a fact that the Kingdom of Hati cannot prevent.
A méng's cooperation plan has three steps: the first step is to pay a lot of money to hire people to build roads in Syrian city-state. The second step is to organize a large business house in Ecu to transport materials through the checkpoint of the Syrian city-state. After doing business with this city, the city needs to be released, and they will pay the pass tax according to the regulations. In the third step, the Syrian city-state can conduct personnel and business transactions with the city of Salim.
Despite being governor, Xiao Mo did n’t dare to nod easily, so he needed to talk to Golie. If Gorey supported Améng's suggestion, with his position and prestige in the Kingdom of Hati, even King Asher would not be against it.
Everyone was uncomfortable, and looked at Ge Lie with questioning eyes. Gorei twisted the goatee and said, "Did the duel, did Améng win?"
Celia replied with a wry smile: "Of course, General Méng won, the arbitration done by your old man"
Gollie also said to Xiao Mo: "Then we have to speak and count the governor. Do n’t worry, no matter whether the Hati Kingdom is willing or not, the city has been established on the Duke Town Plain, and we are unable to intervene. At least this A road is better than no one. It is better for the present and more beneficial for the future. In the name of Améng paying people to build roads, we will first open this business road. There is a peaceful business agreement between us and Egypt, and we should naturally Allow other caravans to pass. If all goes well, of course it is better for us to do more business ourselves .... This is treated as a private trade, and the Syrian city-state should acquiesce. "
Governor Xiao Mo nodded and said, "Since your old man is so expressive, so do it. In terms of actual interests, the Syrian city-state also benefits. No wonder you will let me put the two directors and the secretary The officials are all around, so I thought about it a long time ago. "
A méng stood up and raised his toast: "Then wish you a happy future cooperation"
Golie also raised his glass and said, "Come on slowly, the time required by the general is so urgent. Presumably the current pressure on the city of Salim is also great. The conflict on the Duke Plains will soon come. The Syrian city-state People can be recruited to build business roads as soon as possible, but as a prerequisite, a general is required to open a walking path in front. "
Améng nodded and said: "I will do it right away, and I will get the road cleared within a month. As for the citizens of the Syrian city-state, you don't have to worry about where I have gone, you can just pave and widen along the road.
Gole also nodded: "Of course I can believe what the general said, then the Syrian city-state will immediately organize the manpower and materials, and it will not take long to start the work."
Raphael ’s words: "There are now three city-states on the Duque Plain, Enlil City built by Assyria and Marduk City built by Baron. General Améng does not have the support of a kingdom, but It also guides people to build a Salim city. This city-state seems to have changed out of nothing. I am curious and hope to see and see. "
Celia also said: "I also want to see the excitement, it is like a miracle"
A méng smiled and said: "Welcome you to be a guest in Salem City, but it is best to wait until the road is repaired before everything is convenient."
Raphael replied: "General, you can rest assured. Since Teacher Gore has promised to cooperate with Salem City, this road will be repaired within three months, as long as his old man says something Words are enough. "
After talking about the cooperation, everyone raised their glasses and drank. During the banquet, they talked about all the experiences in the battles of the nations, especially Améng witnessed the final destination of Enqidu in the battlefield casserole. My heart is also full of unknown doubts. After the banquet was over, Ge Lie didn't leave immediately, and he asked Améngī to talk.
On that night, the iron armor king Yunmeng's gigantic body floated lazily in the swamp, while Raphael stood on his back, looking at the rotten quagmire with interest and wondering what he was studying. The aristocratic great magician and the armored beast king have just met, and they actually get along well. They can talk in their souls. Yunmeng is also willing to take Raphael to go around in Charcoal Forest and tell him where there is something delicious. .
In the distance, on a strange stone that came out of the swamp, Gore and Améng stood side by side and talked in secret words of information magic. Gore asked: "Do you know what happened to the fall of Enqidu?"
There are only a few people in this world who can let Améng tell secrets without reservation. Except for Schrödinger who has left and Maria who is far away in Egü, the remaining one is the Grand Theorist in front of him. It's also interesting to say that they were the enemies who led the army on the battlefield, but Gore was a friend of the old maniac and an elder respected by Améng.
A méng replied frankly: “I did n’t know it at the time, but later I realized it because of a special experience. It was the“ examination of fate, the trial of the end ”, and I chose to bear the final consequences of my life. Please forgive me for not being able to It ’s too clear to explain to you, because you know it may not be good. But I can tell you that if mortals want to be truly transcendent spirits, that ’s a necessary test. ”
Gole was slightly taken aback: "You mean that Enqidu has reached the end of human realm, may he become a god?"
A méng sighed: "Yes, he already has that kind of achievement, but unfortunately he didn't succeed, but he is worthy of this life. Your original idea may be right, whether it is a magician like you or enlightenment. All warriors like that, who reach the end of the realm of the human world, may touch the light of the kingdom of God, but this hope is too slim and too accidental. I once told you about the power of one-piece both sides. It doesn't matter if it's one body both sides, strength and body are one body.
A samurai or a magician may also come to the end of human achievements due to Superman ’s luck, talent, and perseverance, but there are many defaults in the secrets of cultivation circulating in the world, unless the mind and body have inadvertently met these tests. Ask, otherwise it is impossible to take the last step. The ninth-level achievement of the original power has a life that seems to be endless, and although the ninth-level great magician in the world is very long-lived, it cannot be compared with those of the angels of the gods. "
Gollie asked again: "A messenger of the gods?"
A méng smiled: "It is some so-called gods, for example, today I can be called a **** in myths and legends, just as Humba was also called the Youdihe God. But this is not true There is still a difference between the detached and eternal spirits. As for what the difference is, I have not yet verified. Of course, this requires nine levels of achievement with the original power. Not all gods can achieve this situation. They just understand the original power. It ’s just a secret. "
A méng said nothing, and then kept silent, waiting for Gore to question. Regarding the secret of the source power, if Ge Lie does not ask, he will not take the initiative to say it, but if Ge Lie wants to know, Améng will not hide it. He can tell Gore's secrets. As for the guidance of faith, it is Goree's own business. Even if he knows the secrets, it does not mean that he can become a god.
Gollie did not continue to question, but sighed: "A méng, you want to open this road, what you want is not only supplies, but more importantly, the population? Attract Hattie and Egypt. The country ’s impoverished nomads settled in the Salang city-state, so as to have the growing strength to fight against the other two city-states. From the point of view of people, I would even send unemployed soldiers who returned to their hometowns in the past, with a little organization, they could become an army But there is a question, if you do that, who do you build the temple for in the city of Salang? "
A méng replied very simply: "Salem City State has built a temple for Mu Yun nv. This is the same as the original Duque Town. I think no one can have any opinions? As for my people, They have gods they believe in. "
It may be a different era or a different region. People do n’t quite understand what Améng and Gore said, but in the Tianshu Continent at that time, the belief in gods was an indispensable support for the gods. What is the difference between working day after day, living in the world, and unintelligent birds and beasts or ignorance and walking? That is the yearning and hope in people's hearts. This world is material, but people live in the God.
If a person loses his sense of taste, no matter how delicious the world is, it does n’t make sense to him. If he loses his vision, how beautiful the color is is no longer gorgeous. The meaning of faith lies here. It is not necessarily a dispute between gods and gods, but a belief in finding meaning. Regardless of whether the spirit exists or not, people need the spirit or symbol of the sustenance of the spirit to face the suffering in life and the unknown in the world.
On the other hand, the reliance of the royal power on the divine power is also conducive to the rule of the kingdoms, giving the emperors of the world a self-evident transcendent status. When the two are combined, each city-state on the Tianshu mainland has its own temple. No matter what Améng does, it cannot be separated from reality. There must be a temple in the city-state to be stable.
Ge Lie smiled, this smile was a little weird, he was used to twirling his beard and said: "For so long, haven't you seen it in Saleng City? The temple you mentioned has been repaired, God The statue of Mu Yun nv is indeed molded on the altar, but it is the **** méng who is surrounded by your statue, ha ha ha ha ... "RH
