Lord of Arcane

In the end, Shado convinced Vader, but Vader also left a message, saying that as long as the conditions were right, he would still encourage and support Netheril to obtain greater benefits through fighting or even war.

At the same time, it is also required to increase the share of Netheril as much as possible in the distribution of mithril mines. The specifics will not be determined until actual negotiations.

Xia Duo has no objections to these, and it is his desire to strive for the maximum benefit. As for whether to obtain it in the form of war, if it comes to having to launch a war, I am afraid he can't stop it even if he wants to.

He is now just trying his best to guide the situation to a situation that is closer to a win-win situation for all countries within the scope of his influence.

After that, the two talked about some topics related to the popularization of magic, especially the recent situation of the international students sent by Vader to the Tower of Time. Shado also briefly briefed them.

……

After Vader left, Shado successively met with several congressmen from the Three Sweetwater Dimensions. Not only did he learn about these congressmen's own attitudes towards the Mithril Mine incident, but he also learned about other people from the Three Sweetwater Dimensions. attitude of MPs.

In the end, regarding the response measures to the mithril mine incident, Lamani, Grian and other members of the Council from the three dimensions of Sweetwater all agreed with Shado, and they should avoid disputes as much as possible, and at the same time use this incident to reach agreements with various countries. Win-win.

Several council members agreed with the distribution plan proposed by Xia Duo, and they also proposed that they were sure to convince other council members from the three sides of Tianshui.

This made Xia Duo more confident about the upcoming temporary meeting.

……

The next person we met was Jenna. Jenna has no territory and is based at the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce headquarters in the old city of Severton. She was supposed to be the first ally to meet with Sha Duo this time, but because of her neutral business identity, she was busy Communicate with all parties.

But this also saved Xia Duo a lot of trouble, because there were some people he really didn't want to contact, such as Hawke, who had an entanglement with the Saville Territory, and Cross, who once imitated the Tower of Time communication weapon.

Although it was finally "reconciled", there was no way there was no grudge at all.

In addition, Hawke is suspected of having deep collusion with the elves, and Cross has formed an interest alliance in the central region that includes many territories and mage tower organizations, and his ambitions are not small.

Xia Duo and them didn't have much in common. It was rare to not be hostile. The best choice at the moment was to stay away from each other until death.

The other newly promoted Grand Arcanist, Saito Consiliaro, was born in Kangchi City. Shado has never even been to Kangchi City, and it is impossible for him to have any contact. The two parties have only met a few times in public, which is considered a nod. pay.

The reception room.

As soon as Jenna sat down, she began to congratulate Xia Duo. Some time ago, more than 1 pieces of the third-generation communication instrument of the Tower of Time were sold. The Mingshui Chamber of Commerce gained a lot from it, but it was the Tower of Time that gained more.

However, the relevant funds have not yet been settled. Jenna will inevitably mention this matter again when she sees Xia Duo. Regarding this, Xia Duo is very calm. It is only more than 1000 million gold coins. He has handled more than this amount of funds before. .

However, he still expressed his gratitude to Jenna and the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce led by her - "If it weren't for Ms. Jenna's wise leadership and the professional sales of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, the Tower of Time's third-generation communication instrument would not have achieved such gratifying results. sales, let me once again express my gratitude to Madam.”

This is not entirely a courtesy from Shado, but a sincere thank you. If it were not for the Brightwater Chamber of Commerce, it would be almost impossible for the products of the Tower of Time to be spread smoothly throughout Netheril.

Of course, the largest chamber of commerce in Netheril is not the Clearwater Chamber of Commerce, but among the chambers of commerce that adhere to neutrality, the Clearwater Chamber of Commerce is far ahead.

"Lord Xia Duo is too kind. This is also the excellence of Tower of Time products. If we switch to products from other Mage Tower organizations, no matter how hard we try, we will not be able to sell such high sales."

Jenna did not take all the credit to herself or the Minshui Chamber of Commerce, but praised the excellence of the Tower of Time products. This was actually her heartfelt statement. Since she took over the Minshui Chamber of Commerce, she has been the leader of the Tower of Time. Business is the most comfortable.

Not only is the exchange between the two parties equal, but more importantly, the Tower of Time's products are excellent enough, allowing the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce to save a lot of sales costs and indirectly amplify profits.

If possible, she hopes to maintain a longer-term cooperative relationship with the Tower of Time.

"By the way, Lord Xia Duo came here this time not just to talk about our cooperation, right?"

"Cooperation is important, but a major event happening right now may be more important. I think Ms. Jenna has also heard about it. It is the newly discovered mithril mine in the Gray Peak Mountains west of the Nese territory. If it is not handled properly, it may lead to a catastrophic disaster. disaster!"

Hearing that Xia Duo finally talked about the theme of this meeting, the smile on Jenna's face gradually faded and became extremely solemn. As a businessman, she really hopes to hear the news about this rich mine, but if this rich mine can Causing disputes or even war may not be what she wants to see.

There are indeed businessmen in this world who dare to take risks to make war fortunes, but most of them still hope to obtain a stable environment. Jenna is one of them, and her feelings about this can't be clearer.

Before the establishment of the Northland Alliance, it was extremely difficult for the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce to enter the elf market, and its business areas and business methods were also strictly limited. It was impossible not to say that it was impossible to make money in the elf world, but the price was that the elves could change. Making hundreds or thousands of times the money is equivalent to working for the elves.

Therefore, the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce hardly touched the Elf Market in the past, but after the establishment of the Northern Alliance, exchanges between countries became frequent, which naturally included business exchanges.

Fields that were closed in the past are now open, and business methods that were closed in the past are now open. For Netheril, which is lagging behind in business, it may face a huge impact in the short term, but in the long run, there are actually many benefits. Of great benefit.

As one of the few large chambers of commerce in Netheril, the Clearwater Chamber of Commerce has already reaped the first wave of dividends from the stable opening up of the countries in the North. If a war breaks out, it will obviously have to return to its past closed-minded and conservative state.

Not to mention the destruction of the business foundation by the war itself, that situation was not what Jenna wanted to see.

"Regarding this mithril mine incident, I am not optimistic about the prospects of various countries responding to it. If possible, I certainly do not want a war to happen. It is best to resolve it peacefully. I wonder what Lord Xia Duo has on this?"

"I think the same as you. Internally, the Northland Alliance has just got on the right track. It is not worth going back to the past because of a dispute. Externally, although the threat of demons has seen the dawn of resolution, the threat itself has not been eliminated. We can’t relax either. In addition, there is a more complicated Dragon Madness Lock crisis, which requires the cooperation of all countries in the North to deal with it. After the dispute, can the countries re-establish mutual trust?"

Nowadays, the basis of mutual trust between countries is very weak. There are conflicts between countries, but more of them are conflicts between individual countries. However, like the Mithril Mine, which involves almost all countries, there is no one. (End of chapter)
