Chapter 418: Full of tacit understanding
If it weren't for Angel Bena's intentional or unintentional nudge, he might have already begun to think about the feasibility, and now he can't help but think about it more.
In particular, after reading through the Byron materials collected by Sophia, I have a deeper understanding of the meaning of the position of hereditary Grand Duke of the Byron Alliance.
It represents not only rights, but also responsibilities.
Once he becomes the ninth Grand Duke of the Byron Alliance, it means that the entire Eternal Night Warlord officially joins the Byron Alliance and must follow the grand declaration formulated by the Byron Alliance at the beginning.
But the question is, according to what standard do they follow?
When the Great Proclamation was formulated?
No family has followed this now, including the Lancelot royal family.
If you don't follow this, as a new force that has just joined the system, you will be easily attacked.
Most importantly, what are the benefits of joining the Eternal Night Leader?
It is impossible for the Byron Alliance to give him a new military territory, he still owns the existing territory, and the only thing he can get seems to be a false name of the Grand Duke.
On the contrary, it is the white wolf of the Byron Alliance's empty gloves, and he can earn a military leader with a turn of his head.
Sean didn't answer the princess regent directly, but asked, "You want me to be the ninth Grand Duke of the Byron Alliance?"
Sean is a little unsure now, who wants to calculate himself, think about it, and the most profitable from it should be the Lancelot royal family.
"You think I'm scheming on you?" Princess Regent Sophilia gave a smirk.
The other party's weird smile made Sean have a flash of inspiration, and asked tentatively, "Did you give it to Angel Bena and let her remind me?"
"Otherwise, do you think it's a witch's secret meeting?" Sophia didn't answer directly, but she acquiesced to this in disguise.
Sean smiled bitterly: "This kind of thing, you just tell me directly, why bother beating around the bush and making it so complicated?"
"I am now the regent of the Lancelot royal family. Sophia sighed softly, all tangled in the words.
"Understood. Sean nodded, indicating that he had understood Sophia's dilemma, and a little sweetness swelled up in his heart.
From the personal relationship between the two, Princess Regent Sophie is reluctant to pit Sean.
However, in the interests of the Lancelot royal family, dragging the Eternal Night Army into the game will greatly ease their pressure.
"You still don't fully understand, I am the regent of the Lancelot royal family, but it doesn't mean that the whole of the Lancelot royal family, other royal family members, will continue to promote this matter, but I have no way to support you, in addition, the Holy See is also very active in this matter, with their embellishment, the possibility will be greatly increased. "Seeing that the princess regent has already said this, she simply picks it out.
Sean couldn't help but laugh and said: "This matter is not one-sided, even if they are happy, if I refuse to nod, can they still impose the title of the ninth duke on my head?" ”
Sean has now figured out how to deal with this matter, which is nothing more than a procrastination.
At that time, he neither expressed his unwillingness to accept the position of the ninth duke, nor did he directly refuse, dragging it out for various reasons.
Drag it out for ten or eight years, and then talk about it depending on the situation.
Ten years and eight years are not long, and it is not short to say short.
It's only the twelfth year of the Eternal Night Army, and if you give them another ten years to develop, you don't know what kind of behemoth it will become!
In a way, the development of power is similar to a snowball, especially for those who start empty-handed, the first few steps are the hardest, and when the snowball is big enough, the snow will accumulate on the body with each roll.
The Eternal Night Warlords have completed the initial preparations, and when the first wave of the outbreak stage is reached, it will be their crazy expansion and construction state.
"What's the difference between a hereditary count and a hereditary baron?" Sophia couldn't help but laugh, "Do you still expect me to give you a county? If it weren't for the pedantic guys in the heraldic court, that town wouldn't have been assigned to you, then again, my lordship, have you ever been to your fiefdom?"
"Hereditary Earl's name is better!" Sean shrugged, "I don't know where the fief you have assigned to my name is, let alone go to see it, if you don't say it, I have forgotten about it, and when I get back, I will send someone to take a look." ”
For two people, a small town covering an area of more than ten kilometers is just a joke.
Even the hereditary earl in Sean's mouth was casually settled by the two of them.
After all, this hereditary earl is not in the real sense, and it does not involve complex issues such as territory, and it is completely a false name.
There is not much difference between the baron and the earl, this time there is no Kingsley family to interfere with it, as long as the academicians of the Heraldic Academy are not kicked in the head by the donkey, there should be no more incidents.
The current Eternal Night Commanders are not the ones they used to be, not everyone can pinch them flat and round, they now have countless means to make them want to live and die.
"In the next three days of carnival, in terms of catering, you will need the great assistance of His Excellency the Baron, and I can rest assured that you will not be busy in vain, and all the bills will be reimbursed by the palace. Princess Regent shifted the conversation to the she had just promised.
This is a big event in the real world, a big event that the whole city celebrates.
Sean's Eternal Night Leader is now the leader of the restaurant industry in Valesta, the royal capital.
In just two years, large and small hotels, pubs, and restaurants, both high and low-grade, are all over the corners of the city.
With their help, this activity would have been much easier.
"Your Highness is really too polite, talking about the bill, it's too outward, you are also one of the shareholders of these industries, you have a need, it's not a matter of words, we will do our best to assist in this matter." Sean patted his chest without hesitation and promised, "In this way, for the sake of safety, I will personally go to the Chamber of Commerce, issue a task for the Chamber of Commerce, and let those chamber of commerce personnel in the royal capital fully assist, we either don't do it, or do it best." ”
Princess Regent Sophielia announced the three-day carnival, which seems to be a temporary decision, and there are still some considerations in it.
Tomorrow is the New Year of the Byron Union, Valesta has the inherent festive activities of the New Year's party, and the royal family also has free bread and wine to cheer up, but most of them last for a day and a night.
Now it's just a temporary delay of two more days.
But everything that should have been prepared was almost ready, nothing more than more food and drink.
If it was the same as in previous years, relying on the royal family alone, Sophia would not dare to open this mouth easily, with Sean's catering industry behind her, the burden would be much lighter, because she knew that the catering shops of the Eternal Night Army Commander, like hamsters, were frantically hoarding ingredients for the New Year's carnival, ready to do a big job.
In addition to the spontaneous actions of the restaurant operators, there are also elements deliberately instructed by the high-level leaders of the Eternal Night Army.
Sean, who was born as a flower grower, knows the power of festivals very well.
Every festival is not only a carnival for ordinary people, but also a gluttonous feast for businessmen.
At first, those businessmen were just celebrating the inherent festival, but after a long time, many unscrupulous businessmen were no longer satisfied with this, and began to artificially create festivals, and some of them even made up a poignant love story and created a public opinion to lure those irrational young people to celebrate on that day, and it was natural to promote their own goods.
The most classic is the double eleven that has become popular in recent years, a day does not rely on, the ground is not touched, and it is only popular on the Internet Singles' Day, which has been made into the largest shopping promotion carnival in history, and the large volume of transactions in a single day is scary to death, and it is increasing day by day.
This is of course a national shopping carnival, but also a gluttonous feast for merchants, usually backlog of unsalable goods, defective products, on this day a discount can be instantly out of stock.
Of course, the success of this kind of business operation is closely related to the general environment, if it were not for the living standards of ordinary people, they have surplus wealth in their hands, and the concept of consumption has also changed.
Sean doesn't have such big ambitions, he just wants to artificially prolong the original New Year's carnival to prepare for future business gluttony.
Unexpectedly, the temporary decision of Princess Regent Sophia played a god assist.
Sean has already been happy in his heart, this year to take the cost of three days and three nights, and wait for next year, the New Year's carnival will continue to last for three days and three nights, isn't it logical?
At that time, they were not free, at most they responded to the royal family's call and made a small discount.
"Then thank you in advance, Lord Baron. Sophia didn't know that Sean still had so many curves in his stomach, and thought that he was completely trying to help himself, and he still had a little sweetness in his heart, a little debt, and was ready to find a way to compensate him.
"Your Highness said that this is really too foreign, if they heard that it was for Her Royal Highness the Princess, for Her Royal Highness the Prince, they would be happy not to find the north. "Sean is not bragging about those businessmen, but they really want to take the line of the princess regent, they didn't have a way before, and now they have the opportunity to help with things, and they are not happy to go crazy.
Never underestimate the influence of the royal family among ordinary people, including those of Andesian descent.
In their eyes, the royal family is a symbol of nobility, not only their ruler, but also their guardian, especially against the backdrop of Odin's occasional prostration.
Without the strong support of the Lancelot royal family, and without the centuries-old stubbornness of the Streich family, there would be no current prosperity in the plains of Asia Minor, and no stability in the Byron Union.
The eight families are nominally equal, but in fact, the Lancelot royal family has always been half a level higher, and this right is not given by others, but they have fought it with blood.
Sean shifted the topic to the parties involved in this incident, "Is it too hasty for His Highness to push Prince Laurie to the front desk like this?"
Sophia was poured a meal of chicken soup for the soul by Sean, and began to change the way she cultivated Prince Laurie, but it was only a little more than half a year, and she didn't know how much she had learned, so she pushed him to the front of the stage violently, was it too strong?
"Good steel needs to be tempered by fierce fire, Prince Laurie is seated, he is destined to go through far more storms than ordinary people think, gradual is certainly a good way, but I have wasted too much time before, the enemy will not give us so much time to prepare, rather than wait until I am ousted from power, let him stand up, it is better to push it out when I can still shield him from some of the wind and rain, let him feel for himself, the throne represents not only rights, but also responsibilities. When she said this, the princess regent was full of heroism and returned to her former demeanor as an iron princess.
There was one thing she didn't say, when she had to stand up and face the storm, no one thought about whether she could carry the burden.
And he has already managed everything for Prince Laurie, and the current Lancelot royal family does not dare to say that it is at an unprecedented peak, but it can also be called the era of small zhongxing.
The biggest internal trouble in the plains of Asia Minor, because of the old age and decrepit of His Majesty Pope Delt, the Holy See will be called by the God of truth at any time, and the internal struggle for power is fierce, and everyone is staring at the belonging of the new pope.
Before the new pope comes out, not only will they not trouble the Lancelot royal family, but they will take the initiative to get closer to them, and some cardinal archbishops who have a peep into the pope's position will even try their best to win the support of the royal family.
The biggest enemy of the outside, the Odin orcs, due to the rise of the West Odin Empire, the East Odin Empire declined, the balance of power was broken, the war was about to break out, and they couldn't care about going south at all.
The Straitch family and the Lancelot royal family are almost one, one is prosperous and the other is lost, they have a lot of extra money, and the pressure on the Lancelot royal family is undoubtedly much less.
And within the Byron Alliance, the Lancelot royal family was also in the limelight for a while.
The Manyu military leader is torn apart, pinched and rounded, and it completely depends on the attitude of the tripartite agreement between the Lancelot royal family, the army leader of the eternal night, and the countess Angie Bena.
The Kingsley family and the Eternal Night Army Leader fought for the Desperate Swamp and suffered a great injury, the fattest piece of meat was eaten by the Eternal Night Army Leader, but the Lancelot royal family followed with a sip of good soup, the Kingsley family now relies on the royal family like never before, and has been reduced to a gun in their hands, which has really helped the royal family clean up the sores for so many years, and they are unprecedentedly refreshed.
Needless to say, the remaining four families will take the initiative to stick to the top as long as the Lancelot royal family always maintains their strong posture.
After Prince Laurie came to power, all he had to do was to maintain a good relationship with the Eternal Night Commander and ensure that the new artery of the Jacob River was unimpeded.
Nothing needs to be done, and there will be a steady stream of wealth flowing into their pockets.
As long as the finances are abundant, their confidence is enough, and their waist pole is hard enough.
However, there are some things that cannot be explained clearly, and must be experienced by the person concerned.
"You can't rush anything, you weigh it yourself. Sean can't get involved too much in this kind of housework, "You just need to know that I will stand firmly behind you no matter what time it is." ”
"Hmm!" Sophia replied softly, without saying any extra words of thanks, because when Sean said this, he was not from the perspective of the two forces, but from the personal relationship between the two.
The two exchanged some other information and poured out their thoughts, and Sean hurriedly left the palace.
Although the rumors about the two of them are now flying all over the sky, there is still a superficial effort to be done.
And time is pressing, in order to extend the New Year's carnival, Sean has to personally run to the Chamber of Commerce.
Now those descendants of the Andes people are backed by the Eternal Night Military Leader, which can be regarded as raising their eyebrows, especially the Chamber of Commerce established under the leadership of the Eternal Night Military Leader, which is already well-known in the same industry.
Sean advocates business information sharing, has begun to play a role, as long as you can sell according to the information provided by the Chamber of Commerce, 100% profit is not guaranteed, but the probability of making is far higher than losing, can guarantee this, it is already quite remarkable.
They can thrive even if they don't have the unique merchandise of the Eternal Night Lord, not to mention that the Merchandise of the Eternal Night Leader is usually supplied to them first.
These descendants of the Andes, who have endured hardships, have burst out with astonishing enthusiasm and hard-working spirit, and they are like hard-working ants, getting up early and greedy for darkness, moving all kinds of goods from east to west, from south to north, and not sparing even the slightest profit.
The entire chamber of commerce is developing and growing in a snowball mode, and in less than a year, the number of members has grown from less than 1,000 at the beginning to more than 20,000 now.
