Law of the Devil Chapter 294: [The Secret of the Coup Day]

Chapter 294 [The Secret of the Coup Day]

Du Wei remembered that when she went to the northwest, she was almost empty-handed! The imperial central government did not support one soldier and one soldier, and even financial support for one gold coin! I was purely self-reliant, and I made the current situation in the Northwest! But now that he has planted a big tree himself, does Prince Chen want to pick fruit in a word?

Where is there such a cheap thing in the world? !!

Moreover, the more than 10 million gold coins I just dig have not yet landed!

"I know that you have some reluctance in your heart." Prince Chen smiled slightly and said, "I didn't ask for it without asking. After all, I know that you can develop this new weapon, which will inevitably cost a lot of money." Yes, I wo n’t ask you for nothing ... In this way, how do I buy 10 million gold coins and buy your new weapon manufacturing process? Besides ... What about the flying broom, I also sell 6 million Gold coins. Hey ... I'm very interested in your Decepticon Air Force. If you can get so many tens of thousands of Air Force ... Prairie Cavalry Advantage, what a thing! "

At the end, his voice couldn't help getting excited.

tens of thousands?

Du Wei heard the secret in his heart, thinking that it is so easy to get this flying broom? Even if there is a manufacturing process developed by Master Elektra, it depends on the walnut seedlings of the mutant species that have been prepared by themselves with the passage of time. Until now, there are only so many brooms in the warehouse.

tens of thousands? Don't even think about it!

Besides, the flying broom flying man must be a magical person! At least you have to be a magic apprentice! Otherwise, if you cannot input magic power, you will not be able to fly. There are only a few hundred magicians on the entire continent, and there are only a few thousand magic apprentices ... Where can I get tens of thousands of air forces?

Mr. Chen didn't understand the reason, thought it was so easy?

But ... ten million gunpowder. Six million flying brooms ... This guy thinks so well! In this way, I paid back 16 million, and I still have to use my gunpowder and the broomstick two killer weapons?

Is there such a cheap thing in the world?

Du Wei thought sneer at the thought.

"My Highness, I'm afraid this won't work." Du Wei sighed and sighed.

Prince Chen frowned, looked at Du Wei, and smiled bitterly: "What's the matter, my Duke of Tulips, do you think that my offer is too low? Well. I also know that you have suffered a little. However, I do n’t have enough finances. After all, I have n’t been in office for a long time. I have to stabilize a lot of things and spend a lot of money. The military expenditure is huge, and I am now preparing for future wars and rectifying armaments. I do n’t have much money in my hand ... "

"It's not a question of money." Du Wei shook his head: "Your Highness, listen to me and tell you carefully."

His face was sincere. My heart secretly said: You want to knock me, can't I blackmail you? ?

He thought so, but the expression on his face was sincere. He took a deep breath and stepped back. Deeply again, she said in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness, imagine that my present title is given by you. You are extremely fond of me, Du Weirong. Everyone knows this weapon or anything, and I made it out, just to deal with it. The Northwest Army and the prairie people. I do n’t understand the main reason you said, but it ’s not so simple to do in practice.

He said so sincerely that Prince Chen was rejected and not angry. Wen Yan smiled at Du Wei: "Oh. Tell me, what's wrong?"

"Let's talk about the flying broom first." Du Wei smiled bitterly: "My Highness, don't look at me making more than 20 magic students, riding a broom and flying all over the sky, it's so easy. This Decepticon Squad, to say, is purely piled up in gold! This team is formed on a small scale. It is okay to be a surprise soldier. But it is formed on a large scale according to what you said. That is absolutely impossible! Let me talk first This flying broom, this magic tool is extremely difficult to make. "Finished. Du Wei didn't hide it, so he briefly stated the approximate process and manufacturing method needed to make the flying broom.

After all, Prince Chen has also learned magic from court magicians, and his strength is not bad, so his knowledge of magic is naturally not low. As soon as Du Wei said, he understood. This flying broom is indeed too expensive to make.

Moreover, Du Wei also concealed the matter about the passing of spring water. Without time, the spring water, even if you give you a full set of technology, you can not get those walnut seedlings that mutate after grafting! At this point, it can be said that it is even more difficult! Walnuts are scarce on the mainland, otherwise the magician would not be proud of the walnut wand. And this mutated walnut, according to Du Wei, is ten times more difficult to cultivate than ordinary saplings. Even if it is cultivated, the survival rate is only 10% or 20%, which is already remarkable.

Prince Chen probably figured it out, probably figured out the cost of a flying broomstick, couldn't help but take a breath.

"So ... a flying broom, I'm afraid there aren't hundreds of thousands of gold coins, can't you get it?" Prince Chen was worried.

Du Weishunshui pushed the boat and added a sentence: "Hundreds of thousands of gold coins ... I'm afraid that is not enough. If you consider the low pass rate in the finished product ... I am afraid that the cost of a flying broom will reach about one million gold coins. It's over. "

This number is enough to make people desperate!

Even if Prince Chen is the master of the mainland and is rich in the world, he knows that such an expensive weapon can never be equipped on a large scale. The Roland Empire's fiscal revenue for one year is only 70 million to 80 million gold coins. Excluding daily government expenditures, military expenditures, etc., the rest is really not much. Such a calculation immediately made Prince Chen disappointed. But he was still a little puzzled: "But Du Wei ... I'm afraid this is not true? Since this item is so expensive, how can you get dozens of them at once?"

Speaking, looking at Dewey squintingly.

As soon as Du Wei moved, he sighed, "It ’s also my luck. The first walnut seedlings were especially lucky to survive most of the time, but this was also accidental luck. Afterwards, the more they died, the less they lived. I can get dozens of them. It was also luck. Later, I was greedy and wanted to get more out of it. Unfortunately, I even lost money and threw in an unknown amount of unjust money. Your Highness, this matter is absolutely It ’s not that I ’m stingy. I ’m willing to send the entire manufacturing process of this thing, if you do n’t believe it. Send someone to try to make it, and you will know. ”

This manufacturing process can give real ground, but nothing can be said without the passing of time. So Du Wei was very determined.

"Also, even if you really get thousands of flying brooms out ... I'm afraid you won't be able to use them! Your Highness, I just said very clearly, you should also understand. You will fly on the broom to heaven Unless you have a magical foundation, at least you must be a magical apprentice! Where can I find so many thousands of magical apprentices on the mainland? "

Prince Chen nodded and believed Du Wei's words: "What do you say then?"

Du Wei laughed secretly. But I also understand that at this time, we must not show a slight proud look, otherwise the fox's tail is exposed, and he deliberately groans for a while, pretending to think of the same suddenly. "I have an immature idea, um, maybe try it, it is also possible."

"Say!" Prince Chen raised an eyebrow.

Du Wei stood upright, gestured in his hand, and said in his mouth: "His Royal Highness, this flying broom is actually plausible. The biggest feature is the air superiority. Above the continent, nothing can be hit from the air. The enemy ’s weapon. So it ’s a big deal. But to gain this air advantage, you do n’t necessarily have to rely on the flying broom ... ”

When Prince Chen's eyes lighted up, he was a smart man who knew everything at once, and immediately said, "What do you mean ..."

"Hot air balloon." Du Wei smiled slightly: "Her Royal Highness, you should not forget that hot air balloon in my family's business. Now this thing has been improved and a bigger hot air balloon has been made. Below you can Carrying the weight of several people. Flying in the sky, although the speed is a bit fuller than the flying broom. But the advantage is that there is no magic man who controls the hot air balloon. As long as the ordinary soldiers are slightly trained, the cost of the hot air balloon is also more than Flying brooms are much cheaper. "

Prince Chen thought for a while, the more she thought the more feasible it was, she nodded: "You're right! Especially the air superiority, it's very unique! Hum! If there is such a thing that can fly in the sky Flying around the army, we Rolandians don't have to be afraid of the cavalry of the prairie people! "

A pause, he suddenly smiled again: "Du Wei, what do you think of this hot air balloon thing?"

Du Wei knows that you ca n’t be polite at this time, otherwise you will lose money again, and stubbornly said, "His Royal Highness, is this hot air balloon popular on the mainland in the past two years, but in terms of manufacturing process, I It has not been leaked to the outside, although there are also imitations on the outside, but it is far worse than my tulip family! If your Highness wants to form an air force, I am willing to support it, but my Highness, although I have a little money in my pocket, but after all Maybe I can bear the military expenses of the Imperial Air Force with my own power. "

The emperor Chen laughed with a smile: "I can't lose you! This matter, let the military buy it, approve the military funds, and purchase from you later ... Well, no! It is best to organize a large workshop Here, it ’s only good to make it on a large scale. Du Wei, you just sell me the manufacturing process of this hot air balloon. Otherwise, I only buy from you, I ’m afraid you wo n’t have that much time to build. ”

Du Wei also smiled happily: "His Royal Highness, the craft of this hot air balloon is not complicated, so you don't have to sell it, I will just give it to you."

Prince Chen was so happy that when he was about to speak, he suddenly moved his heart. He knew Du Wei very well. He knew that Du Wei was really unwilling to lose a little bit of money. Suddenly so generous, it was inevitable. There are ghosts. When the commendation came to my lips, he smiled again: "Ha! What other conditions do you have?"

"It's not a condition, but a difficulty." Du Wei smiled bitterly: "His Royal Highness, the craft of making hot air balloons alone, I'm afraid this thing still can't fly ... One of the keys is this hot air balloon Fuel! Only a specially formulated fuel, the heat generated after burning, can make this balloon fly up. Otherwise ... it is a waste. "

"That fuel ..."

Du Wei immediately cut off and said, "This fuel formula must not be sold!"

Prince Chen frowned: "Du Wei, this matter is of great importance, it is a matter of imperial armament and the National Games. If you are reluctant, I will compensate you a lot ..."

Du Wei still shook his head. Straightforwardly, "His Royal Highness, shall I tell you a story?"

"Story?" Prince Chen frowned.

Du Wei did n’t wait for him to say anything, he said directly: "In the past, there was a man who had a lot of chickens in his house. One day, one of the hens suddenly gave birth to a few eggs. This man rejoiced. I took the eggs to change the money, once or twice. It didn't matter. But after a long time, the chicken would never lay eggs again. Just because it worked so hard to lay eggs, it was immediately The owner took it away, but he was left empty! Even if it was not born, the owner would just lose one or two eggs every day. But in this way, there are many other hens in the family. Those who want to lay eggs can see this situation, they are afraid, they dare not lay, just afraid that they lay eggs themselves. They will also be taken away by the owner like the hen. More hens, later on themselves Secretly laid eggs, they also secretly hid themselves, so that their owners do not know. Your Highness. You help the owner of this family, he has so many hens in his family, because he put the first hens that lay eggs The exploitation was too great, and the result was only a small benefit. Can it be lost? If you think about it, if you keep a little bit in the hand, take a little less eggs from the first hen, only one at a time. Or just a small number at a time, then you do n’t It will fall to the back! If he is kind, then he can get half of the eggs from so many hens raised in his house in the future, and the number will be great! Think about it because he What is the loss? "

How clever Chen is, she has a delicate mind. Immediately understood what Du Wei meant. Then smiled: "Okay Dewey, go round and round. Is it too hard to call me a scam?"

Du Wei shook his head: "Scold you, how dare I? But Your Highness, to be honest, if you must, I will give it to you. But after all, the results I worked so hard to give to people, I feel in my heart Naturally I won't be convinced ... this is the truth, when you face me, I will say the same! But after all, you are good to me, so you will give it to you. Can you do it later? My hen is in you I do n’t want to lay only one egg in my life? Then what will I do if I come up with something new? What do you want to say? Let ’s be honest, even if the two of us have a good relationship for a long time, This kind of thing ... when it is you, would you be willing? "

Prince Chen frowned, pondered, and nodded: "Yes, even if it was me, I would definitely not be happy."

"Also!" Du Wei slowly said, "There are so many magicians on the mainland, and there are many talented people! When the Magic Society was established, we shared the spirit that you started out, but later you were a little skeptical, but later It proves that in fact many magicians have their own exquisite research results, but they have not brought them out. Then, in this world, besides my Du Wei, there are naturally other smart people who can make more More fresh stuff, maybe it will be of great use to the country! But if everyone knows what new things I have come up with, Du Wei will be asked by the royal family ... then there are such examples in front , The other hens that lay eggs, even if they can, will not give birth! Even if they are born, they are still hiding their armpits, and you will never see them again! Right?

This principle is nothing more than a revision of "chicken killing eggs" and "exhausting the fish". It would be useless to say this in the face of a tyrannical monarch, such as a comatose man like the last emperor Augustine VI. However, Du Wei knew that this prince Chen was a wise man. This truth should impress him.

Of course, if Du Wei was tricked into making a fool and temporarily messing with the regent, it would not be impossible, but it would simply solve the problem of hot-air balloon fuel for a while. When he finds himself asking for gunpowder or other technology, how can he be confused?

Small tricks can only be used once or twice, more times will not work. It's better to persuade him with this positive principle, only once and for all.

Moreover, Du Wei still has some confidence in this prince Chen. He is not a mediocre monarch, he should be regarded as a more intelligent and enlightened person.

Although Prince Chen is a little unhappy, but after thinking about it, she wants to open it, smiling lightly: "You are right to say the truth. Well, since it is so. You must have an idea in your heart too. No need to conceal, let's say it quickly. What the **** is this business doing? "

"It's very simple. I sell finished products and sell them to the military at a low price. I can serve as a long-term supplier for the military and sell a lot of hot air balloons to the military at a price below the market price. Form the Air Force. But ... I don't sell technology. "

Du Wei said, groaning for a while. "I can give the military about 20% less than the price on the market, and I guarantee the quality of the hot air balloon produced by the Tulip family is reliable! But in return, I ask for three points: the first is not to default on my payment, Secondly, I ask for a long-term exclusive supply right. You are required to sign a contract agreement with me in the name of the Empire Regent. Business is business, and public and private are clearly distinguished. Any minor disputes encountered in the future can also have a basis for speaking . "

Looking at Prince Chen's face as if it was going to be gloomy again, Du Wei quickly added: "This matter can be publicly publicized, and I want to have it as a precedent. There must be more 'hens in the future.' "I'm willing to send you the eggs you have tasted!"

With this last sentence, Prince Chen's face looked better. He suffered a long time, and then laughed: "Du Wei! You are really smart! Good. Even if you convince me! This matter Do this! However, since it is the purchase of imperial armaments, the quantity is certainly not small. Are you sure you can provide such a large amount of goods? "

Du Weidao: "You don't have to worry about this. I am also prepared to expand the production scale of my workshops. Since the military wants to purchase a large number of land, I plan to follow a new thing I got in the northwest, Set up another factory. "

"Factory?"

"It's a" factory. "" Du Wei nodded. "It specializes in manufacturing hot air balloons and related armaments to the military business. Well ... I think of the name. This new industry is called it: Boeing Aviation . "

Due to this, Du Wei immediately drew up a plan: it is naturally not too difficult to make hot air balloons. Du Wei even quoted a price immediately. According to the volume load of the existing hot air balloon in his hand, it is divided into three levels and the price is set. According to the existing technology, the largest hot air balloon only carries ten people. Du Wei quoted three levels of prices. , Highest to lowest, are eight thousand gold coins. Six thousand gold coins. One thousand gold coins. The key fuel issue is also the price of fifty gold coins per barrel of fuel. Accept military purchases.

After careful calculation, Prince Chen eagerly set up an air force, and in the first year he issued an order for six million gold coins.

After talking about the hot air balloon, Prince Chen laughed and gave Du Wei a look: "You already had an idea in your heart? Um ... then, that can explode to the fire pot, you probably only sell it Finished products don't sell technology, right? "

Du Wei smiled and said, "That's right. The fire pot, I am also improving it carefully, and the lethality can be increased in the future. And I have already sold some to Bohan The governor. If your Highness asks the military to ask me for a purchase, the price is 10% lower than Governor Bohan. "

Due to the conclusion of these two businesses, Du Wei was very happy.

Although the hot air balloon doesn't make much money ... but the fuel is a consumable! As long as your hot air balloon ascends to the sky once, it will consume fuel! Find yourself before you run out! This consumable business is the most profitable! And gunpowder, too!

I almost got the weapon purchase order from the Imperial Army, and it was still the largest one. Will I still worry about the wealth in the future?

Neither of them mentioned anything about that Pope's decree.

Don't mention it by Prince Chen, Du Wei himself will not be silly to mention this thing!

The Prince Chen asked Du Wei to buy it, but he didn't want this thing to spread, and he didn't want anyone to take the decree to get the baptism of the pope!

Dewey won't do this naturally.

He already thought about it. Isn't your pope selling this under the name of disaster relief? I bought it in the name of disaster relief!

For the outside world, I said: Although the Duke of Tulips is not a believer, but also loves the Pope ’s kindness, he has invested in buying this thing, even if it is a relief in the southern disaster area. But the Duke of Tulips is not a believer, so he does not need to ask the Pope for baptism. Think of this thing as a precious souvenir collection.

Well, just do that.

Business is done. Du Wei was relieved. Then he accompanied Prince Chen to gossip for a while, talked about the Northwest style, and talked about the fun of the prairie prince when negotiating with the prairie people.

It finally got dark, and the two of them unknowingly said one afternoon. Du Wei was about to leave, but Prince Chen suddenly sighed.

A haze flashed over his handsome face. Du Wei looked in his eyes, and her heart moved ...

To be honest. When I came back to see Prince Chen this time, Du Wei always felt that he seemed to have changed a lot, especially because there was a bit more anxiety between the eyebrows than that year, and it was obviously that there were too many things to worry about on weekdays. When he first knew him, the prince Chen was a gentleman, clever and calm, and he was the ultimate figure. He was the first-class character that Du Wei came to see in this world! But now less than two years. Looking at him again, Du Wei always felt that his eyebrows were a little less free and easy, and people seemed to have a little more ... the feeling that could not be said seemed to be mature and old.

Imagine. When the emperor Chen was so free-spirited, he laughed and tried his best to restrain the enemy from death! But look at him now. The smile in my eyes was always a little tired.

Seeing that Du Wei was leaving, Prince Chen suddenly sighed and whispered, "Du Wei ... no one has been able to say these words with me for a long time ... well, since you are back this time, then don't Busy back to the northwest. In the near future, there will be no major incidents in the northwest, so you will live more in the imperial capital, waiting for the spring. Go back again.

"... Oh?" ​​Du Wei froze for a moment.

Prince Chen smiled, but the smile was extraordinarily weird: "You stay, you have a lively look. Well ... this thing is still very little known. Villa and Delane They do n’t even know about Shan. In more than a month, in the beginning of spring, I will make a lively show for everyone!

"Big fun?"

A fascination flashed in the eyes of Prince Chen, smiling as if he was very relaxed: "Du Wei, there is a question. You have always wanted to ask me. But I haven't asked it in my heart ... you haven't It has always been strange that the day of the coup d'etat was celebrated in the summer. Why did the temple suddenly send a holy knight to help me? After all, my elder brother's daughter is the sacred girl of the temple. In terms of relationship, the temple seems to stand more It's right on his side, but why did the temple stand on my side that day? "

Du Wei jumped in his heart, but his face remained calm and he looked at Prince Chen quietly.

The smile of His Royal Highness at this moment is a little bit like the coup d'état of the day, and then the queen was full of tricks, and the taste of the great prince was dead.

He smiled somberly: "Because ... I promised the Pope one thing! This thing hasn't been done by the temple for hundreds of years!"

"... what?" Du Wei finally couldn't help asking.

Emperor Chen's face is expressionless, his eyes are even more absolute!

"I promised the Pope that I would openly accept his baptism, and then formally recognize him as the godfather! I, as the godfather, performed the ceremony to him! The ceremony was decided to take place in the spring of a month later!"

After hearing this, even though Du Wei didn't have much loyalty to Prince Chen, he couldn't help but say loudly, "His Royal Highness! This thing is absolutely impossible!"

Du Wei looked horrified, looked at Prince Chen in surprise, and felt a little absurd in his heart: Is this clever guy crazy? Can this commitment be made? ?

The divine power and imperial power of the temple have been fighting for nearly a thousand years! The temple does not want to be above the royal family all the time! But why would the royal family bow their heads to the temple?

The two sides fought openly and secretly. So far, there is no real victory.

But ... who is Prince Chen? ?

He is the regent now! Although Augustine VI was still an emperor in name, everyone knows that he is the master of the mainland! Although he is not an emperor now, he will definitely be his emperor in the future!

How can he recognize the pope as godfather?

What kidding? Dignified emperor emperor, recognize the pope as the godfather? This is something that has not happened in a thousand years! !! In this way, wouldn't it recognize the status of the temple above the emperor? !! !!

Du Wei's complexion has changed a few times. The prince is definitely not stupid. How could he not figure out such a simple truth? !! Can such a stupid promise be made? !!

Chen Chen quietly looked at Du Wei: "Are you trying to say that I am the future emperor? This is equivalent to the royal family bowing their heads to the temple? The divine power is above the imperial power, and the scourge of the empire is profound?"

Du Wei's face was dignified: "Yes ... I really want to say this. But I want to hear from you more, because I think that His Highness Chen, whom I know, should not be such a short-sighted person! In order to get the Temple in the coup Support, actually willing to make a compromise that has moved the foundation of the royal family! You are not such a person! "

Prince Chen smiled, looking at Dewey's eyes, there was a touch of warmth: "Dewey, surely you still understand me, I did not compare this matter with Leah, they said, because I know once said Come out, it will inevitably cause uproar. I have been fully prepared, stabilized the situation, the power is in control, and now announced again, I am not afraid that someone will take the opportunity to make trouble. Du Wei ... You can understand my intentions, distress, good! I read you right! "
