Andiva follows the mysterious man to a dark room in an alley, where only a small window lets in the sunlight, making the subject darker. This made Andiva a little uneasy. But then he calmed down again, and he saw several familiar faces. It was a few magicians who had met him at Wayne's mansion, and it seemed that Wayne had refused military aid this time, and they had also been affected.

Several magicians glanced at each other, just wanting to exchange information with each other.

Just listen to a cough. A dark side of the room, so not many people noticed him just now.

"Respected magicians, I'm sorry that I met you in such a way, because I can't see you as you really are, because of my special status. ”

Only then did they faintly see the man in the shadows, veiled.

"But it doesn't matter, the important thing is that I can help you. ”

Andiva questioned.

"There's nothing Count Nils can do, what can you do?"

"I begin by identifying myself, the head of intelligence of Count Boris in Nolan. ”

The magicians were shocked, the person in front of them was not small, and he took the initiative to reveal his identity in front of them. I'm not afraid that they will turn around and tell Wayne to earn benefits. But apparently this person has a hard grasp of the psychology of magicians, and he was just dumped by Wayne, and these magicians are angry. The little benefit Wayne gave them wasn't enough to denounce unless they promised to help slay the dragon, but that was extremely slim. They had tried all kinds of methods before, and even paid a very high price to no avail.

All in all, they really won't tell it. What's more, this person seems to want to help them slay the dragon.

Another magician said.

"I wonder how you can help, do you have that kind of artillery, or musket?"

The hoarse voice returned.

"Well, we also have quality differences, but we can win with quantity. I don't believe that more than a hundred guns will not solve the problem. ”

The eyes of the magicians lit up, and this Count Boris was clearly more sincere. If you can really send out the army, it will indeed save a lot of trouble.

"Okay, so when are we going to start. ”

They are clearly no longer in peace.

"Go first to Count Boris's domain, where you will be received by a special person, but I will first state the conditions. Count Boris wants you to help him in future wars. ”

The magicians nodded hurriedly, this condition was too cost-effective. Put a few spells on the battlefield and you can have a dragon. It doesn't get much better than that.

"No problem, we want to go to Count Boris's territory now, lest those dragons divert their nests. ”

"Yes, you can go now. ”

The magicians present immediately got up and rushed out. His steps were hurried, and his face was full of excitement.

"Wouldn't it be too much of a move to do this, after all, Count Nils also has an intelligence agency. ”

The head of intelligence shook his head.

"These magicians don't like to be followed, and if Count Nils dares to send someone to follow them, they will definitely be dealt with. Don't underestimate the sorcerer's sensing. ”

"Yes. ”

Then he said lightly.

"If these magicians can become dragon knights with great power, as the rumors say. We will be able to reverse the gap in our equipment, and we will no longer have to be afraid of taking the first and second armies. ”

"The Earl will reward us. ”

"I wanted to reward me with gold coins or something this time, and suddenly I didn't want to be promoted. ”

Seeing that the young man next to him was puzzled, he said.

"Now Nolan's environment is much better than ours in the south, if I am promoted, I will go back. That's a pity. Give me a sum of money, and it would be nice to spend the rest of my life in Nolan. ”

However, he himself did not believe this, his position was extremely sensitive, and even if he retired, it was impossible for him to stay in Nolan. He wanted money, but he thought that if Count Boris collided with Count Niels, Count Boris would fail. War is not something that a few magicians can change. It's just that he usually has to instill in his subordinates the idea that Count Boris will win, so that they can do their best.

"The judge solves the difficult case wisely, and the police fight the gangsters"

This is a report on the process of solving a crime in a new town in the northwest, and because of the complexity of the case, the process is very representative. So the Nolan Times focused on the report, and Wayne glanced at it a few times and put it down. Now the Northwest industry is also beginning to take shape, and because of the interconnection with the Stuyard, the population does not have to worry. In terms of business, half of Rune's wealthy people have settled here for a long time, and the rest will also come here to some extent. Nolan's daily gold coin flow can be counted in millions, which is the so-called GDP, and there are still two or three hundred million in a year. Wayne now has money in his pocket. Steel production can also be maintained at around 50,000 tons per month, and the army is steadily expanding. A few days ago, the bill for the expansion of the armed forces of Bessen was also approved.

The cotton in his own territory has ushered in the harvest period, and it can be seen that it is very profitable. The fishing industry has reached the million-level level, and he can eat cured fish in Nolan. The flotilla in charge of exploration has also departed, and it is estimated that there will be news next year. The reform of the army is also proceeding steadily. He also placed various members of the family in important positions to strengthen his control.

Although there are still many regrets, such as the large passage between his territory and the northwest, which has not yet been opened. The control of Stuyard is not strong, and the things in the north have not yet been figured out. But Wayne knows he can't wait any longer, and the opportunity won't come when you're all ready.

It's time to point to the imperial capital.

Tuk-tuk, the horse's hooves stomped on solid ground, making a crisp sound.

Wayne slowed down to observe the Nolan Railroad, the imperial capital under construction.

In order to speed up the progress, the construction team adopted a sectional construction, so that every other section of the road can see busy workers, engineers with their heads bowed and directing. In general, there will be small shops on the side of the road on this road.

Every time he saw it, Wayne would stop his horse and go in to sit down and listen to what the resting merchants had to say.

"That's a railroad, I've seen it in Nolan, it can pull a lot of coal at a time, and it makes a whining sound and scares people to death. ”

"It's not easy to do business this time, now those noble lords have closed all the gates, and they don't let people in, and things can't be transported in at all. Alas—"

"This time, Gerald from Imperial College is coming to Nolan to give a lecture, and I will definitely ask him what the government's divorce is, and I can't figure it out for a long time. ”

......

It's a semi-open-air stall that serves some tea or snacks, and of course a meal. Whether it is a young student, a businessman, or a moving family, they all sit together, and there is no high or low, old and young. Therefore, I can also overhear a lot of news and understand the people's situation in real time. Wayne loves places like this.
