Chapter 175: Don't be convinced
Moulton is very happy right now. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
I didn't go home yesterday, and as soon as I got home in the evening, I received such a good news, which really made him feel a lot more beautiful today.
It's just that it's not good to do too much in front of his colleagues, and today he still has a straight face, and only those cronies who are familiar with Moulton can see a little clue from the clues of his demeanor.
A long table in the conference room was filled with people on either side, and Morton sat at one end of the table, his hands and fingers crossed on the table, maintaining a slow rhythm, tapping lightly on the table.
Compared with yesterday's somewhat dissatisfied appearance, today's Morton looks relaxed, which makes some people here have some bad premonitions.
"I don't know if you can change your stupid and outdated ideas today."
Morton said slowly, scanning the faces of everyone on either side with a sharp gaze.
Unlike yesterday, today everyone has a document in front of them, which was brought by Moulton, and everyone understands that what is said in this document brings such a mood to Moulton.
In fact, the problem is quite simple, it is just to pull a piece of land for his daughter through formal channels, in the final analysis, many nobles do this kind of thing, if there is any obstacle, that is, the land is a bit big, and Kahlil is a sister These two small problems are just two small problems.
This makes some people a little confused, although Morton now has no more power in the government and the opposition, but always taking tough measures is not conducive to long-term development, and it is impossible to affect the mentality of some people for this internal problem, Morton decided to be patient and solve this problem.
Isn't it just a newborn, female lord?
Although this has never happened in the history of Scalloa, it is not a big rebellion, in Moulton's eyes, the group of people in front of him has been holding the power in their hands for too long, and they have never thought of the possibility of putting the power out of their hands, let alone giving such a situation.
Since the death of the old king, the entire high-level has been in chaos, all kinds of parties have no leader, and the means of fighting for power and profit have suddenly emerged from the shadows, if it were not for the forces on Moulton's side to finally suppress the situation, maybe the whole Skalloa would have been in chaos at that time, and now there is nothing to talk about.
"This is Karil. A new type of weapon developed by Miss Andris? ”
A middle-aged man a little farther away from Moulton asked angrily, holding on to his monocle and scanning the documents that had been sent.
The content of the document, of course, is about the instructions about the finished version of the design given by Carlil yesterday, how to mass produce it, what its properties are, what are its characteristics, and what are the precautions.
As for the blueprints themselves, they stacked up to the thickness of two teacups, and it didn't make much sense to put the designs directly in the documentation, which had already been sent out while Morton was still talking to the crowd, and would soon be ready for mass production.
Of course, one of the main reasons for this thickness is that the paper itself is much thicker, and even the material used to make magic scrolls cannot be too thin, and it will become very thick no matter how you fold it.
"yes, I wonder if you feel anything?"
Morton replied, and the tone was to make it clear, I have taken out such things, you should have a feeling.
"This ...... I don't understand it very well, I don't know if there is, a more intuitive statement? ”
The middle-aged man frowned, picked up a few documents in his hand with two fingers, flipped through them casually, put them back on the table, and said in a consultative tone: "This is saying that the weapon produced by the new process can not only invalidate the enchantment effect of the Senderland armor, but even produce higher damage, and at the same time will not affect the durability of the weapon itself?" ”
These are very clear in Carlil's explanation, but some people can't be convinced just by looking at the words, and they must see it with their own eyes.
"I think the above instructions have elaborated on the answer to your question, but if you want to be sure, you can go back and go to Mark Will for yourself, and now that he has the only prototype in his possession, I think he will be happy to show you the power of this new weapon."
Morton said, continuing to tap lightly on the table with his hand, and the unpleasant sound made several people around him inexplicably irritable.
Everyone knew very well what kind of difference they could make in their confrontations with Sunderland if they could be equipped with this weapon in batches, and Scarloa had suffered enough from the inferior equipment in several encounters - every country around him was the same, and every faction on Sunderland's target list was trying to break the protection of Sunderland's equipment and win their future wars.
Then Morton suddenly brought a report, saying that his daughter not only completed the analysis design, but even quickly put it into mass production, and the design she came up with was beyond imagination.
What does this do? Moulton's daughter? Who is it! Carlil. Andris? Didn't that guy run away from marriage?
Basically, people who don't have a deep personal relationship with Morton don't understand what kind of character a daughter who jumped out so suddenly is, and just broke into everyone's field of vision with something like pie in the sky.
And that's not all, don't forget that yesterday and today sat together because Morton offered to give Daoyara to his daughter Karil alone. Andris's proposal.
I'm afraid that when Moulton first brought up this matter yesterday, everyone thought it was nonsense.
"Forgive me for taking the liberty of Lord Moulton," said another man, a younger man, his eyes much sharper than those of the noble officials next to him, and a shallow scar on his face.
"Please Say"
Morton asked politely, temporarily pausing his movements.
"This new weapon is really your daughter...... Carlil. Did Miss Andris do it herself? He turned his head to look into Moulton's eyes, and with a youthful smile, he looked at Moulton with a somewhat fanatical gaze, and threw out a question that many of the people in the room wanted to ask, but did not dare to ask.
"If you have any evidence to back up your doubts, then I'd be happy to pause, but if it's just out of distrust of me or Carlil, then I don't think I have anything more to say."
Believe it or not, and get out of it if you don't believe it.
Morton was now so nervous that he couldn't allow anyone to jump out and question him, let alone a group of people who were eating dry food to come out and question her daughter...... Well, there are indeed a lot of capable seedlings here, and unfortunately it is one of them who has just been questioned.
But that doesn't affect Moulton's mood for his daughter.
"I see...... I'm so sorry. ”
He nodded to show his understanding, saying that, there was no apology on his face, he felt that according to the concept of ordinary people, there was nothing wrong with his questioning, it was normal, apologizing was just polite, and there was no need for him to apologize.
"Well, I'm not sitting here to listen to your questions, to tell me who still disagrees, or who doesn't understand, to give Daoyala to Karil. Andris, the benefits that can bring. ”
This is just a weapon, if Kahlil can make more of this design, armor, crossbow arrows, all kinds of large war weapons, if they can all have this level, what kind of combat effectiveness should a fully armed army have.
The eyes of several army leaders sitting there suddenly lit up.
"If there is no other opinion, then there will be a wait, and the relevant procedures for the appointment will be signed" Moulton couldn't help but smile: "Very good...... So today I will also present a new proposal. ”
A new one, after seeing what Karil had brought out, suddenly decided on a proposal.
"Then let's talk about it, content."
Someone below came up with a sentence, and it could be heard that the person who spoke was still dissatisfied with the distribution of this large piece of land to Moulton's daughter, but after seeing the ability shown by Kaliel, he also understood that this decision was basically a foregone conclusion, and it was meaningless for him to be dissatisfied.
"We will provide the funds, resources, manpower, and troops mentioned in yesterday's proposal on the basis of the original support...... Double it again! ”
Morton said, pleased to see the crowd's eyes widen suddenly.
"These investments will pay off, and believe me, no amount of money will allow us to bridge the technical gap overnight, but the investment in Daoyala and Kahlil will translate into unparalleled returns in technology."
He picked up the teacup, brought it to his lips and took a sip, then slowly put it down, waiting for the crowd to react.
A group of officials and aristocrats here, even if some people are very selfish, but they are not fools in the end, at this time, they are seriously considering the influence of all aspects, and things are intertwined, and no one has come out to take the lead in paying attention to it for a while.
"Is that good...... Moulton" The old man sitting on Moulton's right suddenly asked in a hoarse voice, "Is this good, Moulton. Andris. Presumably...... You also know our Skaloa's finances at the moment. ”
Without waiting for Morton to speak, he raised his voice and asked again.
"Of course, it was the best decision I could make." Moulton's expression softened a little, and he replied, "I know very well what it means to do this, and that's why I made this decision." ”
The old man was one of the highest-ranking people in the room, and as soon as he took the lead in speaking, the others immediately quieted down and focused their attention on the old man and Angus.
"But...... I finally decided that I need to remind you of this. Morton continued, interrupting the old man's next sentence, causing the old man to frown quietly, but did not say anything.
"I am not asking for your opinions, but if you wish, I may interpret these resolutions as my own. The purpose of the proposal that Andris has put forward and informed you, and which has been finalized, is only to inform you of the proposal that has been put forward by Andris for several days. At this sensitive time...... Allow me to remind you not to do stupid things. ”
Morton looked blank and said with a straight face.
The old man's face changed several times, and finally he took all the words back into his stomach, and with a cold face, he acquiesced to Moulton's meaning.
"Very good......," Morton thought, smiling intently, "I'm glad we agreed on the same page and dismissed the meeting." ”
So far, even if this matter has been decided, I am waiting for what kind of surprise my baby daughter can bring to me in the future.
It's really, really exciting...... (To be continued.) )
