My players are so fierce

Chapter 164 163. Next, Murphy will show you what a lion opens its mouth

"What the hell is your name? I've been single since I was born! You Transian barbarian, please show some respect!"

Shani has always been unfazed since her debut. She was not timid in the face of Tris, an old veteran in the vampire world. She showed her general style when negotiating with the Lord of Transia. She was only a little broken by Murphy's "Mrs. Shani" Defend.

The main reason is that she doesn't understand the peculiar aesthetics of young players, and feels that Murphy is mocking her like an incompetent housewife.

Actually it's not.

"I apologize for my disrespectful name."

Murphy smiled gently, stood half behind Tris, and said softly:

"But the fact is as my Grand Duke and I just said, all negotiations on Transian territory are unacceptable! Is my answer clear enough? And, if you are not planning to leave now, then Why don't you relax and listen to the conditions I will propose next?"

"Of course, that's how negotiations go back and forth."

Mrs. Shani showed an interesting expression, sat on the chair in an extremely dignified manner and raised her glass to Murphy. Tris next to her imitated Murphy's usual posture and propped up her chin with her ten fingers intertwined, with an expression of "watching the show" on her seductive face.

This gesture made Shani feel uneasy.

But Murphy had already spoken.

"First of all, the Kingdom of Nordetov wants to release the armed blood servants in your hands. I don't care if they rioted under the supervision of the Winter Wolf Legion or other hellish situations! You took 6,000 people from Transia. , 6,000 people will be returned.

No one is missing!

Secondly, the Nordtov Kingdom must provide sufficient firearms and ammunition for the formal army that will be formed in the Transia region to deal with the threat of the Black Disaster.

We would prefer it if artillery were provided.

Finally, until the black disaster subsides, the Crimean Fortress cannot interrupt the food supply agreement with Transia for any reason.

We don't take what you have in vain.

We will pay the bill in gold, and if we cannot come up with the money, the part of the mining area in southern Transia that is used as collateral will be enough to compensate you for your losses.

In addition, personally, I have a small request to report to 'Her Majesty the Wolf Lady'.

I hope Her Majesty the Wolf Lady can issue an official edict and canonize me as the ‘Governor of Transia’, with full authority to take charge of all affairs in the entire Transia region! "

Murphy spread his hands and said eloquently under Shani's strange gaze:

“When the Confederation of Portia was formed after the First Black Disaster, it was unanimously recognized by all the major human forces at that time. Therefore, I feel that a formal edict from a queen can better strengthen my claims in the Transia region.

Even though I don't actually need it.

As for what you can get from this transaction?

First of all, I can make sure that not a single gnoll will enter your territory before we are eaten whole by the gnolls. You can sit in the gorgeous palace of North Wind Castle and regard the tragic battles on the land of Transia as a distant story.

Use this as a backup topic for ladies’ afternoon tea gatherings.

Secondly, I promise you and Her Majesty the Wolf Lady behind you that Transia will never fall to the Kingdom of Plantagenet.

We will do our best to maintain neutrality and fulfill our responsibilities as a military buffer zone between the two kingdoms until both of you have digested the benefits of this war and are ready for the next big fight to compete for the position of continental hegemony. Then decide which side you will join. "

"Are you done?"

Mrs. Shani shrugged and asked.

Murphy nodded and looked at her with a smile.

The latter took a sip of wine in a decent manner, then breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Do you think I'm a fool? Murphy, what qualifications do you have to put forward such outrageous conditions in front of me now, and are you still expecting me to agree to you? I admit that Lord Paying's approval is indeed a big deal in the blood race. A lot of pressure.

But this recognition is based on your ability to make sufficient contributions to resisting the Black Disaster. I don’t think you can fulfill the Lord’s expectations in your current situation.

As for the pressure you mentioned from the Plantagenet Kingdom?

Well, Nordtov will not enter into a more intense confrontation with the Plantagenet Kingdom for the useless land of Transia, but I think that if it is just to abolish a lord who does not know the general situation, King Louis will not So they went to war.

So, respond with your words!

If you want to negotiate, show some sincerity.

If you don't want to, then shut up. "

"Little Murphy, your conditions are indeed outrageous. I think they are too much."

Tris also spoke at this time:

"Be sincere, otherwise your Aunt Shani will be really angry."

"You two did this on purpose, right?"

Mrs. Shani narrowed her eyes and said coldly:

"Tris, I respect you as an ancient, but don't push yourself too far! Is a woman's age a subject that can be ridiculed casually? Especially in this situation. You two are really the most unreliable people I have ever seen. The leader of the blood clan.

Even the blood-feared little clan leader Pablo, who is hiding in the Misty Sea and working as a pirate, is more stable than you. "

"I'm anxious. Someone in this room is anxious, but I won't say who it is. I admit that Tris and I are 'atypical vampires'. However, for people with status like us, it is too inappropriate to engage in personal attacks." It’s decent.”

Murphy snorted.

This time he solemnly took out a small notebook from his psychic bag, opened a few pages, glanced at Shani, coughed, and said:

"Then let me change the conditions. The territorial issue still cannot be discussed. This is the bottom line.

But in addition to the above three items, one was added, and the Ministry of Finance of the Kingdom of Nordtov came forward to lend a sum of money to the Governor-General of Transia to purchase military supplies needed to resist the black disaster from the factories in the Kingdom of Nordtov.

Our captured armed blood servants can also be exchanged for redemption.

This money will be returned to the Kingdom of Nordtov year by year in the next ten years. If interest is to be added, it cannot be higher than the median official commercial loan in your country. "

"?"

If Shani was just angry when she heard Murphy's conditions, now she was completely stupid.

It is no exaggeration to say that Murphy's conditions are somewhat beyond the understanding of Grand Duke Shani, and he has even begun to violently attack her worldview as a vampire.

After several seconds, Shani stood up in shock, pointed at Murphy and said:

"You mean, we lend you money so that you can buy our things? And we also want to give you an interest rate that is low enough to make a group of vampires from the Ministry of Finance come to my door with knives to fight me? Then you put this in Call it a 'concession'?

Grand Duke Tris!

Why don't you hurry up and take care of your servants?

He was obviously suffering from some kind of mental illness and it was hopeless. "

"Emmmm"

Grand Duke Tris rolled her eyes and said:

"I admit that what you said makes some sense, but I choose to believe little Murphy. He must have his reasons for saying this. So, Murphy, why don't you explain this to two old aunts who can't keep up with the changes of the times? The principle?”

"If you attack her age like this again, she will really get angry. Mrs. Shani seems to care about this."

Murphy complained softly, and then explained seriously:

"If this comes true, then the Nordtov Kingdom will become Transia's creditor. In this world, only those who owe money are always afraid of creditors. How can any creditor be wary of those who owe money? I will follow my subordinates The consul heard that Her Majesty the Wolf Lady was also promoting reforms in the Kingdom of Nordtov. The military reforms had achieved results, but the domestic business and political reforms were struggling.

The reformists who support the Wolf Girl cannot expand and can only encourage themselves with loyalty. This is when foreign orders are needed.

Think about it, Grand Duchess Shani!

The amount of military supplies and logistical supplies Transia needs to fight against the Black Disaster is astronomical. This is the front line of the fight against the Black Disaster. How many arsenals of yours can our orders be enough to support? How many jobs will it create for you? How many more free people can I help you feed who are freed from the shackles of the land?

The reformists who support Her Majesty the Wolf Lady will not only gain status, but now they can also gain real benefits!

They will become more motivated, because money has always been a trick of the devil to deceive people! The sound of gold coins is so beautiful that it can make the most stubborn old landowner willingly hand over his property, if only he can see that there is a profit!

Well, since this is a negotiation, let me change my rhetoric to something more inflammatory.

White iron is used to reward fearless warriors, gray copper is used to reward flattering lovers, silver is used to bribe cunning courtiers, gold! Only yellow, orange and orange gold can satisfy everyone! It can make demons learn to keep promises, make demons know kindness, make goblins become sick with longing, and make angels fall into madness!

Yes!

gold!

As long as the queen has enough gold coins, she can bribe everyone.

war!

With all due respect, war is the most valuable business in the world! As long as you learn to use it reasonably.

If you feel that the above is not enough, I can even open the market of Transia to your domestic merchants, levy a very small tax on them, and allow them to dump the goods of the Kingdom of Nordtov in Transia.

And through Transia, the core of the continent, he extended his trade routes to the Genoa Peninsula and even the territory of the elves.

The great queen will also get the support of the country's big business class because of this effective move!

The more friends a ruler has, the better.

The support from businessmen will further make Her Majesty the Wolf Queen's reforms deeply rooted in the hearts of the Chinese people. More investment means more factories, and more factories are eager for more profits. They do not need to be whipped with whips to actively devour those ancient products for the Queen. And the old-fashioned old stubborn will spit out more free people for Her Majesty the Queen to use for her.

With this the chariots of the kingdom will truly be launched!

Fill it with fuel with a steady stream of blood, capital and desire, allowing it to crush all conservatives who stand in the way, and ultimately lead the entire increasingly radical and greedy kingdom into the abyss of expansion.

Either become the overlord of the continent, or fall to pieces! "

Murphy smiled, spread his hands, and said to Shani:

"Look, Mrs. Shani, what I was talking about with you at the beginning was politics, war, negotiations, transactions and money. All these are just a continuation of politics, but you are clinging to such a small profit and are unwilling to do so. Let go.

That's why you can only be the leader of the Thorn clan, but your great-great-granddaughter can be the queen!

Therefore, please send my conditions to Her Majesty the Wolf Lady's desk in full. With all due respect, with your current political sense, you may not be qualified to put it on the table for such a big matter as the one I am about to discuss with her. "

The room was quiet for a while, as if there was no one around.

Shani didn't know at what stage she couldn't keep up with Murphy's ideas, but she was already a little confused by Murphy's series of ideas that were far ahead of her time.

Tris might understand.

But the evil-minded Archduke Bloody Vulture had no intention of pointing out some deep-seated errors and omissions in Murphy's series of statements. Anyway, Shani on the opposite side was already frightened.

"But...but you have no money!"

Shani tried hard to point out some fallacies in Murphy's logic. She rubbed her eyebrows and said:

"Transia is the poorest place on the continent. Even if our merchants transport goods here, your people have no money to spend."

"No, we have money! Her Majesty the Wolf Lady will lend us money to buy your things."

Murphy blinked and said:

“Only if we eat everything your merchants bring, can we better stimulate changes in the business atmosphere in the Kingdom of Nordtov, causing the conservative atmosphere to disintegrate and make people excited.

Why is it that after I have said so much, your thinking is still stuck on the level of 'money'?

Consumption!

Consumption is the most important part!

Every time we fire a bullet at the gnolls, your arsenal will place an order for one more bullet.

The more we spend, the higher your productivity will be pushed.

Until quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes.

This is the power that the wolf girl needs most, not one or two reformed armies. What age is this, how can we still only want territory but not pay attention to more advanced needs?

I have already said, Mrs. Shani, your thinking is not suitable for thinking in this area.

You are too practical.

Always paying too much attention to details and failing to see the overall situation will make you an excellent executor but difficult to become a commander.

But trust me, this condition is good for both parties.

Therefore, I think today's conversation can come to an end. Please convey my opinions to Her Majesty the Wolf Lady.

The sooner the better. "

A few minutes later, the dizzy Grand Duke Shani returned to the place where Mrs. Tris had prepared for her. The previously imprisoned Earl of Baishan had also been released. Now he was facing his ancient ancestors with a shameful attitude. .

However, Grand Duke Shani was in no mood to pay attention to her junior, who was not outstanding in her eyes.

She is still obsessed with figuring out Murphy's strange theory that sounds reasonable, but she always feels that there is something wrong with it.

"Your Excellency, do you have any troubles?"

Young Andre noticed Grand Duke Shani's entanglement, and he asked cautiously. Shani glanced at him and said:

"I wanted to scold you because you messed up a simple thing! But I suddenly realized that in the situation we are facing now, your small failure is irrelevant. You once received the so-called 'Modern' education.

Come here, I need your help to clear up some of my troubling thoughts. "

"Well, Grand Duke, I majored in literature at the academy in the Tower of Rings."

Andre was a little embarrassed.

But he still sat next to her at Grand Duke Shani's request, and listened to Shani's description of her negotiations with Murphy and Tris, and the young mind was better than the "ancient people" who were more than 300 years old. Earl Baishan quickly discovered the loopholes in Murphy's theory.

He said seriously:

"There is no problem with his statement in the first half. Grand Duke, His Majesty has indeed always wanted to mobilize the forces in the country that are eager for reform. Starting with commerce and industry is an excellent way. This has been proven by the reform experience of the Plantagenet Kingdom. .

The problem, however, is that Transia will not always be willing to be our debtors and a dumping ground for our goods.

They will develop too!

Once this area becomes self-sufficient, the things we produce will face the risk of backlog. At that time, we will have to find the next dumping ground before the domestic economy encounters problems, otherwise we will face the Kingdom of Zealand Faced with big trouble. "

"Um?"

Shani understood immediately, but then she asked:

"You said that the Sealand Kingdom also encountered the same problem during the reform? They also encountered a similar situation? How did they solve it?"

"war!"

Andre looked at his patriarch, and after a few seconds he whispered:

"Thirty years ago, the current King Louis launched a war against the Kingdom of Isa in the name of his father's assassination!

He won the fight.

So all the problems he encountered were solved.

Ten years ago, King Louis's national integration was completed, and the reform of the unified Plantagenet Kingdom was restarted again. The new country that had unleashed its potential needed new territories and victories to bridge the contradictions.

Their lords crave more manpower, and their factories need more cheap resources.

So they took advantage of the old religion's rebellion and spent ten years annexing more than half of the rich and resourceful territory of the Confederation of Persia in one fell swoop.

I don't know when the next war will come.

But I believe that if our decadent nation doesn't catch up soon, the next time around, a hungry King Louis and his increasingly greedy nation will treat us like nothing more than a satiated delicious cake.

My sister would definitely agree to Count Murphy's proposal.

Because of the dangers that my poor intelligence can see, she, who has inherited the true will of the King of Heroes, can only see them more clearly than me.

Nordtov needs Transia!

At least it is needed at this stage, not only because of security anxiety, but also because of the real market.

The cunning Murphy realized this, so he dared the lion to open his mouth.

And you

IMHO.

You lose, Archduke.

At least in this negotiation, you will lose miserably. "
