Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 335: Negotiations
Chapter 335 Negotiations
"Lord(s), you are wrong." Charade, who rushed from Boulder Castle to Maple Wood Villa overnight, said solemnly.
Since Lorist promised Grisia to support Second Highness 100,000gold fordes five days ago and returned all White Lion Legion standard equipment to Second Highness, Lorist never met with Second Highness. Because Second Highness and his party rushed to the seven towns of Fengleyuan to recruit soldier(s), but let Lorist spend a few days of leisure in Maple Wood Villa. But when the news reached Boulder Castle, Charade couldn't sit still.
Lorist, who was teasing his second son, looked up in amazement: "What am I doing wrong?"
Charade shut up.
Lorist handed his son in the arms to Irina. "Let's go, let's talk to the second floor study."
When I came to the second floor study, Lorist opened a bottle of fruit wine, poured two glasses, and handed one to Charade.
After taking over the fruit wine handed over by Lorist, Charade drank in one sip and took a long breath. While taking off his cloak and handing it to Schwartz, he said, "Another glass."
Then sitting on the sofa, looking at Lorist and saying, "Locke, don't you know what went wrong?"
Lorist raised his eyebrows as he poured wine: "I really don't know ..."
"You should not return White Lion Legion's standard equipment to Second Highness." Charade said.
"Oh, ah, Speer director already urged me to deal with these armors earlier. It is neither bulky defense nor family armed forces. Now standard equipment is better. It is not suitable to sell. It also takes up space in the warehouse. So I just want to return it to Second Highness, so that our family armed forces will not have to send troops to help him return to the country. "
"Well, Locke, why don't you understand what I said? I didn't say that it is wrong for you to return the standard equipment of White Lion Legion to Second Highness. What you did wrong is the way to return it. Otherwise, the 70,000 More than two thousand sets of standard equipment are backward and useless for our family armed forces. They can be sold to the central four Dukedom or Grand Duke Fisablen, how can it be worth four or five million gold fordes. You just equate to throwing this away. A huge amount of money. And you said, Second Highness, what did he say when he accepted the gift you sent? Nothing, but he went to Fengleyuan to recruit soldier(s) in peace of mind, it was pure white-eyed wolf!
Charade's impression of Second Highness has not been very good. He thinks that Second Highness is a good person to do but it is a villain's job. At that time, he hosted caravan northbound and was almost forced to die by Second Highness. If Lorist had not arrived, the consequences would be unthinkable. In addition, Second Highness also used the northbound caravan's desperate situation at the time to dig corners. From caravan, it lured 26 veteran Dawn Academy students and Silver Knight to join him. As a result, most of them were killed or injured within one year. Charade, Terman, Dawn Academy He was born sad and hated what Second Highness did.
Lorist smiled bitterly and patted his forehead: "Sorry, Charade, I did it wrong. I just want to send them out early, lest they stay in our family Territory and get in the way. The next two years are Northern Land At the most critical moment, the replacement of Territory of the Kenmays Family and Shaheen families and the strategy of Madras Dukedom are imminent. I really have no intention to deal with Second Highness, so I just want to throw them a big bone and send them out of Northern Land early. ... "
"Locke, you are wrong to treat Second Highness as a dog. If you throw a big bone at the dog, the dog will shake your tail. But Second Highness is a wolf. The big bone you throw at him doesn't let him. Thank you, it will make him even more jealous of our family Territory, he will regard our family Territory as a big fat, instead of just thinking about cheekbones. "Charade This will not worry about the higher Lord(s) status of Second Highness He is worried that Second Highness will set off a big storm in the family Territory by the promise of Lorist.
"I'm not saying that it is wrong to return White Lion Legion's standard equipment to Second Highness, nor is it the value of this stingy set of equipment. It's that you have done something wrong for him. The best way is to White Lion Legion's standard equipment a little. Give him a little, and get what we want from his hands in several batches, instead of even thank you for not getting it!
What puzzles me most is why you promised them to recruit soldier(s) in our family Territory? Don't you think that Second Highness has equipment and money. Once there are a lot of people in our family Territory, will he play the idea of our family Territory? The only idea I have now is to send Second Highness out of China as a gift early, so as not to cause us more trouble. "
Lorist smiled with a good smile, took the golden cup and slowly took a sip: "Charade, I was really wrong about giving White Lion Legion standard equipment to Second Highness, I should give it a little bit as you said He exchanged for our benefits and benefits. But you were wrong in recruiting soldier(s). Believe it or not, Second Highness can't recruit many people in Fengle originally. Haha ... "
"Why?" Charade asked back: "Second Highness is the predecessor King of Andinak Kingdom. Most of our leaders in Fengleyuan are refugees from Andinak Kingdom. Second Highness has high prestige in their hearts, as long as Ascending to the heights, it is highly likely that the scenery will never happen. In addition, our King has always been able to draw big cakes and promises of empty teeth, which guarantees that a large number of guys who have been stunned by blood will be silly. No, I'm going to give him cannon fodder ... "
"Haha ..." Lorist laughed out loud: "Charade, you have been in charge of the administrative affairs of the family Territory for too long, have you forgotten our family's recruitment system? Oh, as our leader, we are over 16 years old I will go to the recruit camp to awaken Battle Qi. I ca n’t wake up and go home to work as a farmer. I will go to the recruit camp three years a year before the age of 20. If I wake up, Battle Qi will receive recruit training and be assigned to the regular army. Preferential treatment for soldier(s) makes enlistment the most enviable occupation, and even after serving, you can go to the guard battalion and garrison.
If you think about the newly formed Hunting Cavalry Legion some time ago, already has a lot of shortcomings in the family recruit camp that is suitable for service, and the Flying Tiger Legion and Panshi Legion have also been picked away by many people, so they are nearby Guard camps were selected to fill vacancies. As for the guard camps, they also picked people from the defense teams in each town. As a result, the defense teams in many towns are not full. As for the young and strong who cannot become the defensive team, they are the main force of each workshop and bear the burden of supporting their families. Under such circumstances, do you think Second Highness's recruitment of soldier(s) is effective in Fengleyuan?
Especially, I heard that Second Highness will use a gold fordes to settle the soldier(s) recruitment fee. When I want to recruit 60,000 to 70,000 people in one breath, I almost laughed at the big teeth, and did n’t want to think about our family Territory It ’s been a hard year to go to the workshop, there are two or three gold fordes, and one gold fordes wants to kill someone, huh, Charade, let me tell you, our family Territory soldier, Second Highness he can not recruit. already has been in the past four days, Second Highness they are running around Fengleyuan, so far they have only recruited 143, haha ... "
Charade breathed a sigh of relief, took a cup and drank it down: "I really forgot the family's conscription system, so I can rest assured. As long as he cannot recruit soldier(s) for Second Highness, then he holds so Many equipment can only be anxious. But Locke, you have to be careful, don't let Second Highness dig people from our family like Northbound caravan then ... "
"You can rest assured that I already ordered Tarkel's Furybear Intelligence Investigation Bureau to fully intervene and monitor their every move. By the way, you are right here. Next, I am going to take a look at the battlefield on the lower side of the Midobul River I have to go to Potterfang to inspect it. I will leave it to you to receive Second Highness. I think I ca n’t wait to see them ... "
There was a loud noise downstairs. Schwartz went to the window and looked down: "Lord(s), Second Highness and Grisia Miss, they are here, it seems very angry."
Soon, the door of the study was pushed open, Second Highness was iron-faced, and Grisia was blushing with anger: "Locke, what do you want to do? You said you wouldn't set us up to recruit soldier(s), why should you do this? ? "
"What did I do to me? Just make it clear, what happened?" Lorist is baffling.
"We recruited some soldier(s)s, but your people sent their families to the barracks. What do you mean? Your people also said that those soldier(s)s recruited by us have chosen to work for His Majesty King, so Norton Family is not It is necessary to treat and support their families, and their families will naturally settle down! You said, was this what you ordered? "Grisia was very angry.
"Can you tell me what the soldier(s) you recruited originally did?" Lorist's face also cooled down.
"Uh ..." Grisia suddenly speechless.
"This, Locke brothers, these newly recruited soldier(s)s are just full of blood and willing to do our part for our kingdom. This is an act worth encouraging and appreciating. We should not be difficult for the families of these brave ones. ... "Second Highness hurried up to round the field.
"Yes? Do you mean that Norton Family has not fulfilled our obligations? Don't forget that Lord(s) just supported you 100,000 gold fordes just a few days ago, and the batch of White Lion Legion worth five or six million standard equipment. If this is not an obligation, what is it? I don't think there has been such a big tribute in the history of Grindia. No wonder I haven't heard any thanks. "Charade said strangely beside YinYang.
Second Highness's original Tieqing's face turned red at once, but he soon calmed down: "Oh, Charade Knight(s), it's been a long time, I haven't congratulated you on promotion to Golden Knight."
Charade stands up and holds his chest without the Golden Knight badge: "It's nothing to be happy, as long as you insist on practice(d) time, you will always be promoted. Your Majesty, why have you not made our Norton Family support for you for a few days? Reply, are you dissatisfied with our obligations? "
Charade is a bit worried. Generally speaking, the lower-level Lord(s) supports or fulfills its obligations to the higher-level Lord(s). The higher-level Lord(s) must give a formal response. The most common is a thank you letter. Lord(s)'s dedication and efforts, such as some lower Lord(s) sent troops to the upper Lord(s) siege and fall into battle, the higher Lord(s) also has to reward or promote the title and seal Territory or something.
The support given to Second Highness by Lorist already is by far the largest in the history of Grindia Continent in terms of value, but Second Highness has n’t responded for several days, not even a thank you letter. So Charade is literally face-to-face. What do you Second Highness want to do? Isn't this great support enough?
"Your Majesty, you have to give us at least a thank you letter for Norton Family. Such an Legion tens of thousands of people can hear the sound of water lost. We don't think so, a thank you letter is enough, Does Your Majesty think that the contribution of our family is not worthy of a thank you letter? "Charade took another step.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Second Highness took a deep breath and smiled again: "I am very grateful to Norton Family, my Locke brothers for giving me support and help in this difficult King. Thank you The letter is not enough to express my gratitude. Originally, I wanted to recruit soldier(s) as soon as possible to embark on the journey of reunification, and hold a grand celebration banquet in Imperial Capital on the day of triumph. At that time, I would honor my Locke brothers for him Promote the title and get the due rewards for merit. But since you are so anxious, I can make my reply now. "
Second Highness nodded to Lorist: "Brother Locke, don't mind borrowing your desk."
While waiting for the answer from Lorist, I walked to the desk, sat down on my own, took two animal skin paper brushes to write, and quickly wrote two pieces of paper. The ring, lit the candle on the table, took the red beeswax, melted and dripped on the signatures on the two animal skin papers, and then covered the ring side of his ring with a deep impression on it.
"Are you satisfied now? Charade Knight(s)." Second Highness smiled and handed the two letters to Charade, but with a slightly ironic tone, and deliberately bypassed Lorist.
Charade looked at Lorist, Lorist slightly shook his head. So Charade read two words out loud.
The first piece of paper is a thank you letter, expressing appreciation and thanks for the contributions and efforts of Lorist and Norton Family, and looking forward to Norton Family making greater efforts for the Kingdom. It's no different from a general letter of thanks.
After reading, Charade deliberately complained: "Your Majesty, I think you should indicate how much our Norton Family has contributed to you. This is a support that can be recorded in the Grindia Continent history book. It must not be understated Skip it. Forget it, anyway, if you do n’t write it, we will also record it in the family's memorabilia ... "
Second Highness's face turned blue again. Lorist coughed twice before Charade remembered what was written on the second piece of paper.
The second piece of paper is a nobility status promotion order. As the orthodox heritage of Norton Family, Lord(s) and Andinak Royal Family, Second Highness is promoted to Norton Lorist Count as Northern Land Grand Duke(s), and the entire Northern Land is placed under the jurisdiction of Norton Family. If you are not satisfied, you can ask for it yourself Wait.
Hehe, Lorist laughed, Second Highness still wanted to add to himself, but unfortunately he didn't know that already and his three allies had discussed the Territory replacement. With this letter of promotion, Norton Family's **** of the entire Northern Land seemed justified Already.
"Thank you for your promotion, Norton Family is grateful." Thank you for your thanks, Lorist sent a greeting to Second Highness.
"Oh, this is what you deserve, my Locke brother. By the way, let's discuss the recruitment of soldier(s)," Second Highness said.
Knocking sounded, Schwartz went out soon and came in again, holding two letters in his hand.
Lorist picked up the letter with the blue secret on it and looked up, and soon sneered: "Your Majesty, Grisia, do you treat my trust like this?"
Lorist raised the letter in Yang ’s hand: "I allow you to recruit soldier(s) in my family Territory, but I did not allow you to attract my town defense team and guard camp. They also belong to Norton Family armed forces. Your Majesty, how do you explain Your behavior? "
Grisia makes a strong argument beside: "Locke, we did not draw them, it is their own willingness to contribute to the kingdom under Her Majesty's call, you cannot stop them from loyal to His Majesty."
Lorist nodded: "So, what were you angry about just now? Why do they go to work for your Majesty and give me preferential treatment to their family members? To know their house, the field is our Norton Family because they are ours Only one member of the family armed forces was sent to their family. Now they have given up their status of Norton Family soldier(s), then these benefits will naturally be withdrawn. We ca n’t always support soldier(s) under King. Will not do it. And we have not stopped them from loyal to His Majesty ... "
"This ..." Second Highness smiled bitterly, and he did not expect that Norton Family's Fengleyuan seven towns with three or four hundred thousand people but few people were willing to be soldiers. It took four days to recruit hundreds of famous Mercenary dozens. The loitering guys are completely different from the scene of swarming in Redlis Kingdom. I had to go to the garrison in Huyou Town and the guard camp soldier(s) at the gate of the workshop. Only after recruiting a dozen or so, it happened. He saw a headache when he saw the dozens of newly recruited soldier(s) being sent to the military camp's family members. The family members not only cried and chased the recruits, but also scolded Second Highness and others to abduct their children to die ...
Except where can Norton Family Territory Second Highness go to recruit men and women, he promised to attack the enemy as soon as he showed up. For Second Highness, Northern Land is all enemy countries, and he has nowhere to go. But in Norton Family Territory, he could not recruit soldiers. The best way was to let Lorist send troops for him, but Lorist already gave him such a large amount of support and blocked the road.
Lorist ignored the insidiousness on the faces of Second Highness and Grisia, and began to read the second letter. Soon he let go of the letter and said to Second Highness: "Sorry, Your Majesty, please forgive me for not being entertained. I will go to the front line soon. Everything in your family Territory will be taken over by Charade Knight(s). If you need anything, please contact him Contact and he will entertain your Majesty. "
"What, Norton Family is fighting against others?" Second Highness asked a little surprised.
"No, Your Majesty, is an ally of our family. The Kenmays Family and Shaheen families are attacking Madras Dukedom. As an ally, we naturally send the family armed forces into battle, which is our obligation."
"Are you attacking Madras Dukedom?" Second Highness was surprised, and soon returned to God: "My brother Locke, don't you mind if I follow suit?"
