Chapter 820: Contribution Strategy
Chapter 819: Contribution Strategy
The palace is majestic.
One hundred and eight steps.
On either side stood soldiers in armor and armed with spears; They don't squint, their expressions are serious, and nothing seems to move their gaze; But Zhou Chen and his party walked towards the steps, which still made their eyes involuntarily.
It was naturally not Zhou Chen and them that attracted their attention, but the giant dragon suspended above Zhou Chen.
Dragon!
Even in a secluded place, it is a supreme and rare existence.
Along the way, Joyna's desire to speak again and again; Zhou Chen took in her expression, smiled indifferently, and asked: "This king is a person who keeps his promises, and he will not sit on the ground and raise the price; If the lord of the city accepts the previous agreement between you and me, the king absolutely guarantees that the previous agreement will work. ”
"Really?"
Joyna's face was full of excitement and she couldn't help but cry out; Thinking that there were soldiers all around, this move was too much of a gaffe, so he quickly recovered, lowered his voice and tempted: "This princess likes you more and more." ”
"Oh?"
A smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Chen's mouth, and he said: "That's really good, it seems that this king's actions can not only win a mine, but also win a beauty." Beauty and wealth are exactly what this king is pursuing. ”
"Don't you seek power?" Joyna asked, pouting.
"Doesn't this king have power?"
Zhou Chen didn't answer the rhetorical question, with an elusive smile on his face, Joyna thought about it and laughed too. She felt more and more curious about Zhou Chen, he was not suave, but sometimes it made people feel like a spring breeze; He is not fierce and domineering, but he sometimes makes people feel strong and indescribably confident.
What kind of prince is he?
Joyna's mind was almost filled with Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen didn't notice Joyna's obsessive expression, because his eyes had already turned to the middle-aged man standing on the highest step; The person was wearing a luxurious robe, with a national character face, and a majestic instrument, I am afraid that this person's cultivation has reached the Heavenly Heavy Realm, but I didn't expect the cultivation of Phil Han City to be so high. Noticing that Zhou Chen was looking at himself, a gentle smile appeared on the face of the city lord of Philhan, and he took the steps down the steps and took the initiative to greet him.
"Prince Simon's presence here is truly a glory to my Philhan City." The city lord of Filhan stepped forward and took the initiative to greet him.
"The city lord is tired of personally greeting him, this king is really terrified."
"The prince is polite, you are the son of the city lord of Simon City, and when you come to my Philhan City, you represent the city lord of Simon, not to mention that the city lord of Simon is not only the lord of a city, but also has the status of an earl, so the king naturally has to greet him personally. Prince, please. ”
"City Lord, please."
Inviting each other, the two entered the palace almost in the same rhythm.
A banquet that has been prepared in the palace for a long time.
The banquet was not as grand as expected, the food was good, but there were only three seats, and there was not even a cabaret performance. Zhou Chen was not surprised, it was obvious that the city lord of Philhan couldn't wait to discuss important matters with him.
Seated.
The lord of Filhan drove everyone out, leaving only a few henchmen to serve.
"The prince has come from afar, and this king will pay a tribute to the prince on behalf of all the subjects of Philhan."
Zhou Chen nodded, picked up the wine glass and clinked glasses with the city lord of Filhan, and drank it all. After a brief greeting, the city lord of Philhan took the initiative to say, "Prince, Ina sent a letter to this king early in the morning, saying that the prince was coming, and he also talked about the contract between the two of you last night. Not only that, but the king will increase his stakes and change the previous one mine into two, as long as the prince can help him eradicate the trouble, the king will be grateful. ”
"Since the city lord is so cheerful, and this king is also a person who keeps his promises, since he promised the princess, he will definitely fulfill his promise, which the city lord can rest assured." Zhou Chen didn't expect that the city lord of Filhan was really a magnificent lord, and in the blink of an eye, he added another mine.
The Schiller family has a total of five mines, each of which is extremely rich in resources. The quarried hedron can not only be used for the use of Filhan City, but even sold to several nearby cities; One can imagine how much wealth a mine represents. It can also be reflected that the Schiller family has reached the point where the Lord of Filhan will be wiped out at any cost.
"Naturally, the king trusts the prince."
The city lord of Filhan was full of pride, and the next moment, his expression became worried again, and he continued: "To tell the truth, the power of the Schiller family in Filhan City has reached the point where this king is on pins and needles; This king has to deal with more than just the Schiller family, there are many families in Philhan City that are already attached to the Schiller family. This king also thought about suppressing it with military force, but not to mention that there is no evidence of the Schiller family's rebellion, and if it really fights, this king is not sure of victory, and it will cause the subjects of Philhan City to suffer the poison of war. I wonder if the prince can have a solution? ”
"Yes."
Zhou Chen replied confidently.
Since the agreement with Joyna last night, Zhou Chen has begun to think about how to deal with the Schiller family; It was precisely because Zhou Chen learned about the situation in Philhan City from Liu Wuchang that Zhou Chen thought of all kinds of schemes that overwhelmed the Schiller family.
Hearing that Zhou Chen had a countermeasure, the city lord of Philhan and Joyna glanced at each other, their faces showed surprise, and they hurriedly asked, "What countermeasure?" ”
"The king does not know much about the situation in Philhan, and it is really impossible to formulate specific countermeasures; However, this king has heard a saying that the monopoly will surely perish. ”
"Monopoly is bound to perish?"
The city lord of Filhan and Joyna were puzzled, and asked suspiciously, "I don't know what the prince means by this?" ”
"City Lord, if this king understands correctly, the mines of Philhan City have almost been monopolized by the Schiller family; Even if there is a family with its own mine, I am afraid that the yield and quality of the spar are far inferior to the Schiller family's mine, right? Zhou Chen didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically.
"Not bad."
"In that case, the families must be dissatisfied; Even if they don't dare to rebel against the Schiller family on the surface, as long as the Schiller family encounters a crisis, they will be killed by anyone. Because, the lord of the city can promise them some benefits. Zhou Chen smiled indifferently and said.
"Yes, yes, they are all greedy demons, as long as one of the Schiller mines is given to them, they will support the king." The city lord of Filhan suddenly realized and nodded in agreement.
"But that's not enough."
Zhou Chen shook his head and continued to analyze: "If the city lord is not sure of victory, even if those families are greedy to get the mine, they will definitely not take their lives to advance and retreat with the city lord. ”
"Yes, only when they see the dawn of victory can they fully contribute to the king; This is also what the king is worried about, the power of the Schiller family is too great, and with the current strength of the king, they will not be able to defeat them. The city lord of Filhan sighed deeply and continued to ask, "Prince, what should I do?" ”
"That's the second point the king has to say."
Zhou Chen smiled indifferently and continued: "I want to make the Schiller family mess. ”
"Mess up? What's the mess? The city lord of Filhan asked puzzled.
"This king was with Carthus, the heir of the Schiller family? Schiller has come into contact with him, and this person is a waste, but he is the magic weapon of the city lord to win. ”
A conspiracy smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Chen's mouth.
