This series of reduction and exemption policies for the Zeellandia Hogg Business Group was not decided by Erastro alone.

This beautiful and noble female mage, although she was jointly elected as the supreme mage by Silvermoon City, has only been in harmony with the Silvermoon Federation for more than twenty years.

But if you look at her earliest history in the Northland, it is likely that she has spent a long time of four or five hundred years by now.

Because of this and her approachable work style, people tend to forget and ignore the fact that she is a Chosen (daughter) of the goddess of magic, Mystra, and one of the Seven Sisters of the Northlands.

And this proposal is also the result of her previous discussions with several sisters and even the top of the Federation through her 'Silver Fire' and magical communication after receiving news from Levi in this regard.

It's more of an 'informing' than a discussion.

After all, it was only a reduction policy for a small business group, and as the supreme mage of Silvermoon City and one of the advocates and councilors of the Silvermoon Federation, Erasdr was fully qualified and had the right to dictate such trivial matters.

And the political form of Silvermoon City is actually somewhat similar to the constitutional monarchy of Blue Star John Bull.

The True Silver Family is the nominal master of Silvermoon City, but in order not to repeat the mistakes of Mistrono, the daily decrees are basically issued by the successive Supreme Mages on the Throne of the Moon.

Judging from Erastro's hundreds of years of knowledge and experience in the Northland, as the core of this commendation and award, there is nothing out of the ordinary for the three-year tax exemption.

Compared with Levi's charcoal in the snow at such a critical time, to a certain extent, such a reward is even a little unacceptable.

However, due to the political influence of the entire federation and the possible impeachment of other merchant groups, Erastro could not go too far.

Therefore, such a reward is basically reasonable, because there are examples to follow and traces to follow.

If the Northland encountered a sudden disaster in the past, such as the Northland farm being looted by the orcs, then the following year there will basically be a corresponding tax reduction policy to encourage these refugees to return to the northern farms that have been ravaged by the orcs to continue reclamation.

There is no way, there are too few arable land and priests available for cultivation in the Silvermoon Federation, and in recent years, more and more displaced people have emigrated to the Northlands.

This irreconcilable contradiction is also a headache for Erastro and the top of the Federation.

And the northern farm is one of the helpless choices they made.

Otherwise, the Silver Moon Federation would no longer be able to feed such a large number of people by relying solely on the Raven River Valley.

What a happy annoyance, when other countries were still trying to plunder the slave population and encourage childbearing, the Northland was already having a headache because productivity could not keep up with population growth.

This is undoubtedly an affirmation of the policy of the Silver Moon Federation.

But now the looting of the northern farms is tantamount to a blow to the head.

Especially now that the voice in the Federation is getting louder and louder about the main battle of the new orc tribe in the north, but if it is a war, there are too many problems and difficulties to deal with.

If there is a victory, it is better to say that under the victory, many problems and contradictions that have been covered up will be diluted.

And if it fails, the newly established federation, which has only been established for more than 20 years, is likely to suffer an unprecedented political crisis and turmoil.

Because of this series of problems and difficulties hovering in Erastro's mind, for this meeting and commendation, the Supreme Mage originally only intended to end it with dignity and efficiency, and at the same time try to make Levi, a kind-hearted businessman, feel at home, and return to his magic tower to continue to deal with the affairs that seem to never be finished.

And this sleepless working state like a construct, she has been going on for more than half a month.

Even as the daughter of the goddess of magic and the elect, sleep was not necessary, but the long-term high pressure and complicated government affairs made the High Mage feel a little tired.

So when Levi uttered the words "You don't regret it in the future", it was as if Aylas had finally been pulled back to reality from his thoughts.

Then I felt a trace of absurdity, and even a faint bit of irritable anger.

She couldn't help but laugh and thought to herself, 'I am also the supreme mage of Silvermoon City, one of the councilors of the Silvermoon Federation, will I still be able to backtrack because of this kind of thing?'

Even the perception of Levi when he first saw it decreased a little bit.

thinks that the 'elf businessman' in front of him has really not escaped from the category of businessman, his vision and pattern are still too narrow, and at the same time, he is not stable enough in this formal occasion.

But these were all Erostro's mental activities, and no matter what, she shouldn't have snubbed Levi, the 'hero' who had just made outstanding contributions to Silvermoon City.

So he smiled deservedly and said, "Your Excellency Levi, you can rest assured, this is the result of our joint discussion of the Silver Moon Federation, and there will also be a tax exemption certificate issued by the True Silver Royal Family personally in your hands, so you don't have to worry about it at all." ”

Being able to be tax-free for three years, Li Wei, who is a silver dragon, is naturally happy, but he feels that if he doesn't give the other party a wake-up call, he is really suspected of bullying honest people, and he may have unnecessary conflicts in the future.

So after thinking about it, Li Weisi decided to give the Silver Moon Supreme Mage and the two behind her a preventive shot

"High Mage, on behalf of Zeellandia and the Hogg Merchant Order, I thank you for your kindness to the Silvermoon Federation.

"But I think you've misunderstood, and there's never been any doubt about the trust of the Supreme Mage and the Silver Moon Federation.

"It's just that I want to remind you that our Hogg merchant group may be a little different from other merchant groups, and the import and export trade volume at that time may be slightly larger.

"So I'm a little worried that if the tax exemption lasts for three years, it will affect the fairness of the entire Northland trade, and if it will have an impact on the market of the Northland and have a bad impact on the people of Silvermoon City, then I will be a little unhappy. ”

After hearing Levi's words, Erasdr's whole person was shocked.

She had never seen anyone so 'arrogant and arrogant'.

She had lived for so many years, and she had never heard of a merchant group that was large enough to have an impact on the entire kingdom's market.

But she still suppressed those superfluous emotions, and instead pursed her lips and smiled

"Your Excellency can also rest assured of this, you should have also heard that our Silver Moon Federation was born from a ruin, our Federation has only been established for more than twenty years, and now it is in ruins, and we are extremely thirsty for all kinds of materials, so the strength of the Hogg Merchant Group is also what we are happy to see. ”

It was the first time Levi had seen such a door-to-door delivery for slaughter

I feel that if I continue to prevaricate, it will really chill the kindness of others, so I will no longer shirk and bow down

"Then thank Your Majesty the Supreme Mage and the Silver Moon Federation for your kindness, we Hogg Merchant Group will definitely do our best to contribute to the Silver Moon Federation and create a better future. ”

At the same time, I also faintly reminded myself in my heart, even if the other party has not seen how the high-quality and inexpensive goods of the capital assembly line factory will crush and impact on the small handmade workshop, I can't do too much for the sake of temporary interests.

As a Blue Star traverser, he had seen it between the lines of the textbook, but he deeply understood what kind of tragic consequences would be caused if the bloody monster of capital lost its shackles.

If this kind of impact is allowed uncontrollably, I am afraid that the entire northern land will not only be ruined by the people at the bottom.

Money is not enough, and under the pressure of no threat, he prefers to slow it down a little bit, and keep this future shock under a manageable range.

And to achieve this level, in fact, it is not too difficult, he can first retain some industries, and expand the industries that Zelandia has already been involved in, and then gradually absorb the practitioners of the original industry.

After all, in some industries, some senior craftsmen are still extremely valuable.

For example, the dwarven craftsmen!

After seeing that Levi finally played his cards according to the routine, Erastro finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the two politely exchanged politeness.

As the meeting drew to a close, Erasdra asked as if something had suddenly come to mind

"I heard from Silverwing, you Zelandia, are preparing to build a new territory on the west bank of the Sebrin River?"
