Sean still remembers the refreshing feeling he felt when he first saw this series of intelligence.

This is no longer a simple carrot and stick policy, but a number of birds with one stone, not only to appease those large and small nobles who have suffered losses, but also to attract investment for their own territory in disguise and promote the development of commercial trade.

With that series of preferential conditions, it seems that the princess regent seems to have suffered a big loss, but those nobles, big and small, really go to open a workshop or do business, and it is the princess regent who takes advantage in the end.

You need to pay taxes to start shops, workshops, and factories!

Although some of the taxes have to be paid to the royal family, the lion's share still falls into the hands of the actual owner, the princess regent.

Most importantly, the circulation of goods in the territory was realized.

Only in the process of exchanging goods and goods can realize their own value, and the territory can be developed at the highest speed.

After wandering around for a long time, they not only sold the land to the princess regent cheaply, but also worked for her to create more wealth.

What made Sean Gao look at it the most was that the regent Princess Sophilia did not have the bad habits of most of the lords and nobles of the Byron Alliance.

Most of the lords and nobles, after having a little wealth in their hands, either smashed it on the family castle that had been repaired for many generations, or soaked in various banquets and gatherings all day long, living a high-profile and luxurious life, or put it in their own family treasury to mold and rot.

There are very few people who are willing to invest in their own territory and engage in people's livelihood infrastructure, and Sophia is undoubtedly one of these few.

The speed at which she spends money, although not as exaggerated as the Eternal Night Army, can also be called one step at a time.

After five or six years of persistent investment, whether it is ancillary facilities or roads, all have come up, and then there are a group of small nobles who have lost their territory to run around and do business in it, plus there have been no disasters and floods in the past few years, it is difficult not to prosper.

Now the fief of Princess Regent Sophilia can be called a fertile place after the royal capital Valesta and the Holy Land of St. Aether.

And all this was the basis for her New Deal.

The new policy of the princess regent, in Sean's opinion, is not complicated, it is a relatively simple separation of military and government, the establishment of a special municipal council, and the corresponding tax payment, public facilities construction and other work.

However, the implementation of this new policy has many obstacles, even in its own fiefdom.

Because this new coup d'état weakened the role of the lords and nobles, if all the cities were governed by the municipal councils, what should they, the lords and nobles, do?

Sophia is not only a princess, but also a regent, and what happens once she completes her experiments and takes place throughout the royal fiefdom?

However, the title of Iron Princess is not called in vain, it is her iron-fisted means, and the policy she decides to implement will definitely not compromise in a roundabout way.

Even if it was easier to succeed in a roundabout compromise, she wouldn't do it.

It's not that Sophia doesn't know how to be flexible, but she really knows the temperament of those lords and nobles too well, and your compromise will not be exchanged for their approval, but more about gaining an inch.

If you put on a posture of desperate Saburo who does not hesitate to lose both, these guys themselves are easy to wilt and take the initiative to retreat.

This time, there is no doubt that Princess Regent Sophia won completely.

Because the new deal was carried out in her fiefdom, she held the absolute power of life and death, and those lords and nobles below were happy and were wiped out by her, and no one would jump out and say nothing.

However, the new policy of Princess Regent Sophia is limited to this, and has no intention of implementing it throughout the royal family.

This was her shrewdness, and the New Deal in her realm was a temptation, a temptation of the great and small lords, to test their acceptance of the New Deal.

At the moment, it's not ideal.

If the regent Princess Sophia enforces it, the result will only push all the lords and nobles to their opposites, and the gains outweigh the losses.

However, the implementation of the new policy this time is not without any benefits, that is, a new possibility is placed in front of those lords and nobles, and when the effect comes out, some enlightened lords and nobles will naturally follow suit, and wait for time to ferment, and then consider the large-scale implementation.

This is the style of a mature ruler.

Not to mention three years ago, even a year ago, Sean didn't think that there would be a chance to deal with him directly, and now, the two are face to face, no more than ten meters apart.

"You have only half an hour, messenger from the mountains. The handsome knight reminded Sean in a low voice.

"Thank you very much. Sean bowed slightly in thanks.

"What's the matter? You arrived three days later than agreed, and you know how much I have spent to arrange this meeting? If you come half a day late, Her Royal Highness will be on her way, and if you want to see you again, you can either go to Valesta, the royal capital, or wait for next year." Angel Bena grumbled in a thin voice of mosquitoes.

The meeting was, of course, carefully arranged.

Princess Regent is not something you can see if you want to see it, especially since Sean is still an Andes, as for the name of the general of the Eternal Night Army, it is not easy to use in front of others, maybe people have not even heard of the name of the Eternal Night Army.

The opportunity to meet the regent Princess Sophia was won by Angel Bena.

The two can be regarded as close friends who have known each other for many years, Sean went to Solo City the year before last, and only met Angie Bena after a while, and Angie Bena was the regent Princess Sophia who came to inspect the fiefdom before the meeting.

Every year, on the occasion of the autumn harvest, the princess regent sets out from the royal capital Valesta to her fiefdom, nominally to inspect her fiefdom, but in fact to inspect the situation of the royal domain.

The plains of Asia Minor are tadpole-shaped, and the royal capital Valesta is located on the head of this large tadpole, and the fief of the regent Princess Sophia is located on the tail of this tadpole, adjacent to the Manyu military territory, the steppe of the broken vein, and the Carthusian hills, the situation can be called complicated.

Speaking of the fief of the princess regent, there is a story here, because this fief is the first thing she did after taking over as the regent - the fief she chose for herself.

The reason why he chose his fief to be so remote was to show an attitude that he had no eyes on the throne - it was so far away from the royal capital that it was inconvenient to rebel.

"After receiving your message, I have rushed here as soon as possible, and you are too late to inform you!"

Helping Sean fight to meet the regent Princess Sophia was something that the two parties had agreed on a long time ago, but depending on the other party's itinerary, Sean could not take such a big risk and traveled thousands of miles to the royal capital Valesta to ask for a meeting.

After receiving the message from Angie Bena, he turned back from the northern fortress to the ancient river of Jacob, and then ran all the way over, which was naturally delayed.

"I didn't expect the time to be so tight, there was something wrong with the royal capital, the itinerary has changed, I have said everything that should be said, I have done what I can do, whether you can reach an agreement depends on your own ability. "Angel Bena winked her eyebrows, looking like I was optimistic about you, obviously she had hit a nail that was not too big or too small.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. Princess Regent Sophia finished processing the documents in her hand, put down the quill pen, and said apologetically, "Self-introduction is exempt, Angie Bena has already introduced your basic situation, since you have worked hard to arrange this meeting, you must have done an investigation on me, and you should know everything, let's go straight to the topic!"

"Your Highness is quick to talk, then I won't be too long-winded. ”

Princess Regent's simplicity and directness were somewhat unexpected, which was completely inconsistent with the aristocratic etiquette of the Byron League, and in the eyes of other nobles, it was definitely an insult to them.

I wonder if the princess regent treats everyone like this, or because he's Andes, and knows he doesn't understand the etiquette, and treats them differently?

The latter is most likely, after all, among the many rumors about the princess regent, there is no such thing as not knowing etiquette.

From this subtle detail, it can be seen that the other party is a thoughtful person with a heart, and there is a certain amount of preparation for this meeting, this discovery has slightly increased Sean's confidence, and it is far easier to persuade someone who is interested in his proposal than to persuade someone who is in the way of meeting him.

As he spoke, Sean had already looked at the most powerful woman in the Byron League.

As the legend goes, she is really young, young beyond imagination, and it is hard to imagine a woman in her early twenties, carrying a kingdom on her shoulders, and has been carrying it for six years.

Compared with the brilliant achievements and achievements of others in the past six years, Sean's current achievements are really nothing.

However, it is far from the aggressive, melon-seed-faced, phoenix-eyed, and Wang Xifeng-style president-style strong woman expected by Sean, after all, the other party is famous for her iron fist, and people can't help but think about it.

But reality is more likely than similar reversal plots, Sophia does have a bit of heroism between her eyebrows, but the whole is soft and charming, with a smile and a smile, there is a feeling of romance, which may be related to the other party's relatively petite face.

The other party is not the kind of peerless beauty that makes people shine, but she is called durable, and the whole feels very comfortable, and the more you look at it, the more pleasing it is to the eye.

Sean pondered his words and said: "I don't know how far Countess Anjibena and His Royal Highness have spoken, I reiterate my intentions, I have brought the goodwill of the Andes people and a relatively special deal, if it can be done, we are a win-win situation." ”

"If it can be done, it will be a win-win situation, and I am curious about how exactly you are going to make the Jacob River reflow? More precisely, how do you prove that you and your people have the ability to make the Jacob River reflow? You don't think that if you say something empty and white-toothed, I will believe you, right? How can I be sure that you are not some kind of pretentious, bombastic person? I don't know how many such people I have seen, how can you prove that you are not one of them?"

Sophia crossed her hands, supported the bookcase, leaned forward slightly, her eyes were fixed on Sean, and a formidable edge appeared, it was obvious that her weak appearance was just a disguise for her nature, this was the real iron-blooded princess.

"I've personally been to Don's territory to see it, and they do have ......"

Angel Bena wanted to help Sean defend herself, but was interrupted by Sophia not very politely: "Your Excellency the Countess, you have done enough, I agreed to this meeting, it is all based on this, you should know how big the interests are involved, I can't make such a decision because of your one-sided words, I at least want to know what kind of person my future partner is?" Seeing with my eyes, listening with my ears, feeling with my heart, not through your mouth, allowing you to listen, is already my last bottom line, from now on, please shut up, otherwise, I will ask you out. ”

"Okay, okay, okay! I was wrong, from now on, I won't say a word, I only have ears!" Anjibena raised her hands in a gesture of surrender.

At the same time, I threw one to Sean, I can only help you get here, and the rest look at your own little eyes, and honestly watch from the wall, because she knows too well the temperament of her best friend, and she can definitely do it, even if she apologizes afterwards, when it is time to kick you out, she will be merciless.

Sophia's gaze turned back to Sean's body, and the meaning was obvious, I was waiting for your answer, and that look of scrutiny was even stronger.

It's not a mess, because before that, Sean has fully assessed the difficulty.

Unexpectedly, but it was true, he didn't expect that as soon as he got started, Sophia would throw this kind of question, and the words he prepared before coming were all about what kind of huge benefits would be brought to the other party after the resumption of the Jacob River, how they should use this matter to maximize the benefits, and cooperate on this basis to achieve an exchange of interests.

Both Sean and the military staff ignored a core question, how to convince the other side that they could dig up the mountains and make the Jacob River flow again?

This is their blind spot from their own point of view, because the Spring Thunder Plan has been prepared for too long, and it has become a semi-open secret in the Eternal Night Group Army, and no one has considered whether they can do it, but the question of when to do it.

The problem is, Sean now has to convince a stranger a few days ago who probably hadn't even heard of his own name.

It's hard to do that unless you show your hole cards.

This is what Sean is unwilling to do, the secret of black powder, even Angie Bena Sean did not reveal the slightest bit of a mouth, how could it be leaked to a person who only existed in hearsay and on paper a quarter of an hour ago?

There was a lot of unilateral subjective will on the part of the Eternal Night Group Army in this meeting, and there was great uncertainty as to whether it would succeed or not.

Of course, this meeting was not a decision made by Sean on the head of the slap, but the results of repeated discussions and research at the top of the Eternal Night Army.

Bringing the Jacob River back to flow is by no means a matter for the Eternal Night Army.

Instead, it involves most of Ashan, more than 3,000 kilometers long, and most of the ancient river in those years, like the current location of the Eternal Night Army, has become fertile land.

If the Eternal Night Group Army recklessly explodes and hundreds of millions of tons of river water swarm down, what kind of disaster will it be for the unprepared people on both sides of the ancient river.
