"!?" As if grabbing a life-saving straw while drowning, Naiyako's eyes widened, staring at Kasumi Hill Shiyu relentlessly.
Xiazhiqiu Shiyu suddenly showed a fox-like smile, and hooked his fingers at Naiyako, motioning for him to come over.
Naiyazi hurriedly approached and listened to him.
Xiazhiqiu Shiyu whispered in Naiyazi's ear. Naiyako listened, and at first his expression looked extremely disgusted, but gradually he became stunned, then became a little excited, and finally couldn't bear it anymore. He covered his mouth and nose, as if he was afraid that the nosebleed would come out.
"understand?"
"Yeah! I understand!" Naiyako, covering her nose and panting heavily, nodded seriously, with a taught expression.
"Then go to rest and take your time. Asuna will definitely not be able to escape if it happens."
"I see!" Naiyazi nodded, then quickly left and went back to her room.
After Naiyazi returned to the room, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu sighed softly, and the tension disappeared. At the same time, she was also a little confused
Is she really dangerous...
Wait, her expression just now was so serious, she didn't really do that, did she?If it's true...that's really a crime, hehe...Ah Xiao, I hope you can stand it...hehe...
Thinking about it, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu couldn't help but giggled out loud...
......
The next morning, after breakfast, Asuna and the others left the villa.
The affairs of Dawn City still need to be finished or handed over.For example, Asuna began to fully hand over the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce to Fuyuba. From now on, Asuna will only pay attention to the rent of qualified candidates occasionally, and she doesn't have to worry about other things.
Hiratsuka Shizu and Kasumigaoka Shiwa handed over various affairs to the school district. Hiratsuka Shizu needs to continue to cooperate with Mr. Zhao Ziyun, and she will not be free in a short time.
Xiazhiqiu Shiyu is fine, but she still needs to make a trip, after all, many things have passed through her hands.
However, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu has already decided that after the handover is completely completed, she will not waste time on it.She decided to turn down even the post of ordinary teacher.In her opinion, since the clerks of King Zhao's Mansion are capable enough, she doesn't need to fill them in. So, it's better to devote more energy to the qualified person's job, and reproduce her debut work .
Yes, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu remembered that someone was very interested in her debut work, and she had already decided to try to take the time to reproduce it to satisfy someone's wish.
As for Naiako and Maple, they were not together. Naiako disappeared early in the morning. According to Maple, Naiako went to practice by herself and said she would be back soon. .
As for Maple, she had nothing to do, so she took her Xiaojiu and went to collect items outside the Warcraft Mountains by herself. For her, as long as Xiaojiu was around, there would be no danger under normal circumstances. .
Regarding Maple's solo action, Nangong Xiao and others have nothing to worry about. If Maple doesn't even have the ability to act alone, maybe she won't be able to live now.
After all, the different world is really not beautiful.
As for Naiyazi, Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan were not worried at all.
Chu Xuan was the same as before, spending the early morning in the laboratory, continuing her research that would make Asuna and the others creepy.
Needless to say, Qiuye and Dongye, they have a lot of things to do at the moment, at least the last one or two months have been a busy period.
However, once Dawn City is on the right track as a whole, they will be free. After all, there are still enough reliable personnel in Prince Zhao's Mansion, which is enough to help the two sisters manage the developed Dawn City well.
Up to now, there are only Nangong Xiao and a few hidden guards of Prince Zhao's Mansion in the villa.
Not long after, the hidden guard came to report, and Renoir came to the door in person.
When meeting Earl Reynolds, Nangong Xiao did not deliberately put on airs, but because of the huge gap in status and power, Earl Reynolds still seemed a little cautious.
In front of the sofa in the living room, Nangong Xiao and Renoias sat opposite each other at the table.Except for the two people in the living room, Renoias' entourage and Nangong Xiao's hidden guards were all staying outside.
After all, both of them have a tacit understanding and know that some things are suitable for private communication.
"Your Excellency, please." Nangong Xiao made tea for Count Renoias himself, and pushed the teacup in front of Count Renoas who was sitting opposite.
Renoir maintained his aristocratic demeanor as much as possible, with a humble smile and an elegant posture, he held up the teacup, smelled it, tasted it, and savored it.
It seems that before coming here, Renoias deliberately studied the pursuit of tea art by the dragon people, so that he can roughly understand how to taste the tea culture of the dragon people. At least, the superficial skills are still in place.
"It's a great honor to be able to taste the craftsmanship of His Highness." Renoirs had a look of enjoyment on his aged face. Of course, in essence, he doesn't like tea, especially the green tea of the dragon people. The taste is bitter before sweet It's not very friendly to him, but it doesn't prevent him from expressing against his will.
Nangong Xiao also knew a little about this old Earl of Youtiao, and knew that the other party's words were insincere, but these were irrelevant, the status of the two parties was not equal, and it was destined not to be too accommodating to the other party when contacting.
"Your Excellency's purpose for coming, I have already understood. The current output of magical weapons is not high, but they can be sold to Your Excellency. Of course, I also have some requirements here."
"Oh? Your Highness, please speak directly." Renoias remained elegant. In his opinion, as long as the price is not too outrageous, it is fine to trade. As for other requirements, let's see what happens.
"Actually, the central part of the Kingdom of Stentel is now raging with war, and it must be necessary to arm more human soldiers to fight against the invasion of the orcs." Nangong Xiao said lightly, "I think that once the Earl recommends this powerful weapon to Si King Tuttle will definitely be rewarded, right?"
Chapter 131 Dawn City - Last resort
"Your Highness, do you want me to act as an intermediary for this kind of transaction?" Earl Renoias asked with a smile.In my heart, I was extremely surprised, even a little unbelievable, and felt that this kind of pie from the sky was a bit unreal, but on the surface it still appeared calm and breezy.
"Isn't it good?" Nangong Xiao also showed a harmless smile.
"It's indeed a good proposal. I don't know what your Highness's conditions are? Please tell me clearly." Renoias asked as elegantly and calmly as possible.
Nangong Xiao kept smiling and said, "Dawn City is my private estate, Your Excellency is the consul of Kerton Province and the lord of Ginocol City, as a foreign settler, of course I want to establish a good relationship with you. Similarly, Dawn City, as my private domain, also needs a legal name."
Renoir narrowed his eyes, his mind agitated.
What kind of private manor is completely open-eyed and talking nonsense, no matter how big the city is, it can accommodate more than 20 people.
Now you want to have a good relationship with him, the governor of the province?Isn't it just hope that the two sides maintain a tacit understanding of non-interference?
As for the legal name, this can be big or small.
If the upper echelons of the royal capital turn a blind eye, then this is just the sale of some useless land within the province.
But if you really want to care about it, it's not that simple. It can even be said that this prince wants to occupy the territory of other countries in a legitimate way!
This dragon-human prince is playing with fire...
"What? Your Excellency thinks it shouldn't be?" Nangong Xiao still asked with a smile.
"Of course it should be. It is an honor for His Highness to honor you and settle in the Jinuo Ker area. But, Your Highness, you also know that your movement is a bit big. The construction of the city itself does not comply with the kingdom's laws and regulations, and your identity is also very important. It's very special. Now that the north is not calm, the royal capital may not say anything, but once the war is over, the higher-ups will pursue it...I'm just a little earl, and I really can't stop it."
"That's why I said that magical weapons can enhance the strength of the regular army of the Kingdom of Stentel."
"...Your Highness, there is a clear border between the dragon people and the human race. If only a small number of dragon people move in, that's fine, but there are at least tens of thousands of dragon people in Dawn City, which is a bit unreasonable."
"This is my private estate. If King Statel wants to manage private property, I don't mind 'arguing' with King Statel."
Nangong Xiao's words made Renoias somewhat terrified, because this was simply a threat of war!
All of a sudden, Renoias came to his senses—does this mean that the prince of the Dragon Race was ordered by the Emperor Xia to suddenly cause trouble in the Jinuo Ker area?
If so, the massive arrival of those draconians and elves would explain...
Is the dragon tribe planning to abandon the alliance agreement of the seven tribes and move towards territorial expansion again? !
There was a trace of sweat on Reynolds' forehead, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Now the orcs in the north are attacking fiercely, but the dragon people and the elves have not shown signs of fulfilling the alliance agreement, and now there is a mess in Dawn City... Could it be that there is some secret agreement between the orcs, the dragon people, and the elves... .
hiss! !
Just when Renoas was in a brainstorm, Nangong Xiao said with a smile, "Your Excellency, it's just a private manor. Maybe there are a lot of people living there, but that's all. I don't think it will let your country's high-level It's an overreaction. After all, now they are more concerned about how to repel the army of orcs, and my magic weapon may be a key.
Just think about it, as a middleman, isn't this key point a great achievement for you?Once the orc army is successfully driven out of Stantel, as one of the key figures, the title of earl or the position of consul in a province seems inappropriate, right? "
"Your Highness is right." Renoir forced a smile on his face. He really wanted to leave right now. He didn't even have the courage to touch matters of this level.Unfortunately, he can't leave.The prince has already expressed his attitude, let him be the hottest matchmaker!
Can this kind of thing be casually matched?
Now the dragon race is obviously expanding outwards, but the method is slightly milder than that of the orcs, but it is worse, after all, they are taking advantage of the fire to loot!
More importantly, once the dragon race and Stantel officially clashed in the future, he, the earl who was a matchmaker and gave the other party legal rights, would be the first sacrifice to be pushed out!
Why was it pushed out?Because in a sense his behavior is betraying the country.Whether the higher-ups in the capital will definitely do it, but now the kingdom needs the support of the dragon people, or it can't bear the price of fighting with the dragon people, so it must obey the prince's wishes.The king's capital will definitely not take the blame, that is to say, no matter whether he agrees or not, when it comes to the final execution, it will still be him!
When Renoias was in the midst of a brainstorm, Nangong Xiao was sipping tea slowly. He knew that the old earl would definitely agree. The current situation of the Kingdom of Stentel could not allow the old earl to refuse.
The reason why Nangong Xiao needed the old earl to publicly recognize the legitimacy of Dawn City was to establish a legitimate foothold on the territory of the human race.
Don't underestimate the name.
If there is no such point, then there will be a good reason to attack Dawn City when the Stentel Kingdom withdraws from the war in the future.
After all, cities in this world cannot be built casually. A small city with thousands or tens of thousands of people can still be used as a private residence, but Shuguang City is a big city with a million people, and Nangong Xiao also has a dragon. As a prince of the human race, it is doomed that this kind of city construction will greatly stimulate the nerves of the high-level leaders of the Kingdom of Stentel.
At that time, once the Kingdom of Stantel uses this point of view, the reputation and credibility of Dawn City will be destroyed.Because, to a certain extent, the establishment of Dawn City was Nangong Xiao's occupation of the territory of the Statel Kingdom, and it could even be called an invasion.
And deduced from this, once Shuguang City is morally untenable, and there is a military conflict with the Kingdom of Stentel, then Shuguang City will not be able to get the support of the Dragon Clan, even if Nangong Wentian wants to support it, at least tomorrow Not on the surface.
As long as Tian Zihong still has some brains, he will not support Shuguang City openly, otherwise it will lead to a crisis of credibility for the country and the race.
Because the establishment of Dawn City is very dishonorable in a certain sense. To put it bluntly, it can’t even compare to the orcs who directly invaded by soldiers, because the orcs are an aboveboard invasion, and Dawn City is the product of conspiracy.
If that time comes, Shuguang City will be isolated and helpless on the bright side, which is not conducive to the future development of Shuguang City.
It was because of this consideration that Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan chose this time to build the city, and it was so urgent that Princess Chang Xi's people could be allowed to intervene in the Shuguang City system, because Nangong Xiao had to be in the Stentel Kingdom. Before the end of the war with the orcs, the legitimacy of Dawn City was confirmed.
Once the legitimacy of Dawn City is formally established, there will be many detours to follow.
As long as Renoir nodded, or in other words, even if Renoir didn't dare to nod, it didn't make any sense. At that time, he, the chief officer of Kerton province, would still make a public statement.
Because as long as the King Stentel, whom he had never met before, was not too stupid, he should know what to do in the best interest of the Stentel Kingdom.
At that time, Dawn City will truly stand tall on this continent.He, Nangong Xiao, also obtained a piece of legal private territory justifiably.
Nangong Xiao knew that, taking advantage of the situation, the Kingdom of Stentel had no other choice now, and likewise, Earl Renoias had no choice.
There was silence in the living room for a long time. Renoir's cheeks and neck were full of sweat at this time, and he put down the teacup in his hand tremblingly, and said, "Your Highness, if you win, I will be a disgrace to the kingdom."
"No, you will be the key to the kingdom of Stentel in stopping the orcs from invading, and you will be a hero. At least, I guarantee that in conventional warfare, orcs will not be able to resist magical weapons."
"If that's really the case..." Renoirs laughed dryly, and then said, "Your Highness, is it really just in the name of a legal manor?"
"I won't make it too difficult for you. This is my private estate, which is enough. Of course, I won't cut you a penny for the cost of purchasing land, and you only need to relax my restrictions on purchasing land in the future." gone."
This hex there is not too hard for him to do! ?
Reynolds wanted to scold her, but he calmed down as much as possible, and said, "Your Highness, at least give me a range? It's too outrageous, and I don't think the king's capital will agree."
"Don't worry, I really won't make it too difficult for you. In the future, the expansion of Dawn City will be biased towards those unnamed mountains and wastelands. All I need is a legal private land name. The inherent territory of the Human Stantel Kingdom."
Nangong Xiao's words made Renoias secretly relieved. He knew that if this was the case, at least on the bright side, the face of the Kingdom of Stentel would be decent. Of course, the premise is that the prince really only does this. The Xia Empire behind this prince really has no further plans, otherwise...
After a moment of silence, Renoias said, "Your Highness, I will report the matter to the capital, but as for the result, it is beyond my control as a little count."
"I understand, don't worry, I really won't embarrass you. Let's talk about the trading price of magic weapons?"
Nangong Xiao still kept smiling, but that smile made Renoir's heart tremble, but he couldn't leave here, so he could only bite the bullet and continue talking...
Chapter 132 Aurora City - A Xiao said he was on the move
At noon, Earl Reynolds left, and hurriedly left Dawn City with depression, helplessness and fear. If he could, he swore that he would never set foot in Dawn City in the future!
What kind of prince is the owner here, a prince who cares more than those street vendors?Do not make jokes!
It was the first time that Renoias had seen such a prince who could lay down his body and open his eyes to tell lies for a little benefit!
5 amethyst coins for a magic gun, 1200 amethyst coins for a 150mm caliber magic gun, ammunition is not included, and you can’t lose a penny...Oh my god, just arming him with thousands of dollars The private guard was almost emptying his family.
Although he felt the pain of cutting flesh, he had to re-examine the power and convenience of the magic weapon after actually testing the power and convenience of the magic weapon, especially the artillery in the training manual to wash the ground and then advance with three-stage shooting. importance.
To be honest, regardless of the higher-level combat power, Renoas dared to fight against the orcs and tens of thousands of orc cavalry with thousands of infantry.
It was also because he clearly recognized this point that Renoir was willing to cash out this huge sum of money despite his heartache.
Of course, what is more important is that His Royal Highness allowed him to slightly increase the price when he was selling to the capital, but the price increase should not be excessive, and he had to communicate with His Royal Highness, and the premium was his Renoias' hard work. fee'!
One-tenth, or even one-twentieth premium, coupled with the millions of soldiers in the north...
Just thinking about the astronomical "hard work" in the future, Renoias suddenly felt as if he had suddenly broken through the mythical level, full of energy and youthful...
After returning to the mansion in Ginocol City, Renoias asked his confidantes to prepare the property and send it to Dawn City, and at the same time sent a thousand confidant private soldiers to escort 150 magic rifles and three [-]mm artillery pieces to Stantel. King Capital, go to meet King Stantel.
In addition to the arms trade, what is more important is the appeal of the prince.
Renoias only hoped that King Stantel would not be impulsive at this time, otherwise...
Reynolds didn't dare to think about it anymore. Although he was greedy and incompetent, he also knew the source of his rights. If the kingdom of Stantel was attacked by orcs and dragonmen and died, he, the earl, would really be nothing.. .
......
Dawn City, in the villa where the Holy Black Cat Knights resided, in front of the sofa, Nangong Xiao, who was leaning on the sofa, handed a contract to Qiu Ye who was standing aside, and said, "It turns out that the nobles in this world are so I'm rich, I just doubled the pre-set price by using some words, and this country earl can actually come up with it, sure enough, the poverty in the past has limited my imagination."
Akiba took the contract and glanced at the magic signature and seal of Renoir on it, and said with a smile, "Your Highness, don't underestimate the background of middle and lower nobles. Although I don't have the surname of Earl Renoir Tulag Levin I have heard of it, but judging by his age and behavior habits, he can barely be regarded as a nobleman with some background, and some family backgrounds are also normal. Of course, the inheritance of this kind of nobleman can only be said to be at the bottom level. , even a small baron usually has a wealthier family than the old earl."
"Well, it seems that we can redefine the price of luxury goods for the noble class. Qiuye, let the intelligence department collect this information for me, and those fat sheep can't be spared."
"Don't worry, Your Highness, these are already being done. I will send someone the integrated information later."
