"You're the most greedy person I've ever met! The dragons' love for treasures is nothing to mention in front of you! The Dragon Emperor stepped on the edge of the table in the conference room with one foot and shouted fiercely, "You are blackmailing!" Blackmail a golden dragon! โ
"1,400,000 tons of grain, Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor! That's not a small amount! Do you know how much it costs to get these grains and Iran Hill? Chris pointed to the elven queen beside him and retorted with an oath.
The Elven Queen has long been accustomed to dealing with the Orchid Hill Empire, so she is now a businessman: "The greatest warriors of our Elven Clan are now farming, and the magicians who are all Grand Magisters at the lowest level are busy in the fields every day, and the cost of these foods is not low. โ
In fact, because of the large-scale irrigation machinery, pesticides, and improved food varieties, the elven magicians more than tripled the original grain production of Iran Hill without paying any decent price.
The surplus food has been widely used in brewing and other related food manufacturing. The grain in the granary of the national strategic reserve is piled up, and if it is not sold to the Dragon Emperor, it must be disposed of at a low price to the grain dealers who resell it.
The current elf queen is in the same camp as Chris. They all hope that they can extort a sum of money from the ignorant Dragon Emperor, and this is the ruthless side of the leader.
The Dragon Emperor didn't know that the little girl who had witnessed the enthronement and became the emperor back then had a great bad conscience. He could only pinch his nose and admit these sky-high grains, after all, there was really not much arable land to sow seeds in the territory of the dragon and orc clans.
Both the dragons and the orcs are natural warriors, and there is nothing wrong with letting them attack the city, but it is a bit difficult for these barbarian peoples to produce with peace of mind.
So in Chris's view, whether it is the dragon clan or the orc clan, they are all primitive tribes with no economic environment, and they are not a little bit backward.
If you want Chris to evaluate, the dragons who don't produce are actually not as advanced as the tribal elves in terms of social form. As for how much worse they were from Grecken's organized empire, Chris just wanted to say, "I'm sorry, it's not compared!" โ
It was as if in front of him this scene, the Dragon Emperor actually stepped on the table savagely and shouted loudly! If this kind of thing were placed between human civilizations, it would never happen.
Even if everyone is scolding their mother in their hearts and preparing to destroy each other's countries, human beings are elegant and rational at the negotiating table. Everyone talked and laughed as if they were brothersโas for slashing each other after the meeting turned their faces, it was after all.
"Then let's not mention these grains for now, let's talk about those weapons! Could it be that your weapons are made of gold? How dare you ask for such an expensive price? The Dragon Emperor pointed to the list of weapons and asked with a dissatisfied expression.
This time it was Chris's turn to be shameless, he pointed to the list of weapons, sneered and said, "If these weapons were made of gold, it might be cheaper." โ
"How?" The Dragon Emperor had an expression that you don't make it clear, I will eat dinner at your house, and waited for Chris to continue with his chin held his hands on his chest.
In order to hit the big dog in front of him and fight the local tyrants and landlords, Chris can be regarded as showing all his shamelessness and doing the work of Listrid on weekdays.
"You see clearly! These are special weapons with special numbers! Which one is not to open a new mold, which one is not to train new workers? Chris replied-for-tat: "These costs are spread out, and with our special technology, it is natural that the price is expensive!" โ
"These weapons are made of new materials, light and strong, and after thousands of beatings and smelting, each long sword is comparable to the existence of a sword!" Everything Chris says is true, but his words have to be heard from another aspect.
He said that it is true to use new materials, but the new materials of these weapons are not necessarily worth much.
And he said that these weapons have to be smelted in a new way, and that they have been beaten thousands of times, of course, it is not false, but it is not a blacksmith who is responsible for beating these weapons, but a fully automated machine.
In fact, these things are not very expensive in Iran Hill, which can be mass-produced. But on the orc side, the price is different.
The Beast Emperor is thinking the same way, and he is also using the same means to deal with Chris.
In fact, due to the low production capacity, the orcs have no way to digest the various coal mines, iron ores and other precious mineral resources in their territory.
Since it can't be digested, these things are cheap and worthless things for the orcs. Exchanging these cheap and worthless things for food and other strategic materials is also of great significance to the orcs.
"I know oil is very useful to you! This price is too low! The Dragon Emperor waved his hand, and found another condition from the terms, and made a complaint to Chris.
Judging by a few questions, the Dragon Emperor has mastered some of Iran Hill's needs, he is not a fool, and he is not as easy to deceive as he seems.
"Half of the market price, that's the condition you gave me! But that's not fair to us! I hope you can increase the purchase price to seventy percent of the market price! "The Dragon Emperor gave a price that he was relatively satisfied with.
Chris waved his hand and refused: "The market price is the price at which we can make a profit by selling - your price is not competitive." Chris shook his head in decline.
"Didn't you keep saying that you wanted to help the dragons and orcs? How come in the end, you are not willing to pay even a little profit? What kind of aid is this? The Dragon Emperor stepped on the table angrily and asked loudly.
"Aid is aid...... Profit is profit. Chris complained frantically in his heart.
You must know that in the earth civilization back then, the aid of the five hooligans of the United Nations was really selling dog meat on the head of a sheep. If someone really believes in the so-called evil of aid, then it is really their own Shi Lezhi.
As a result, there is really an emperor in this other world who believes in this set? In other words, this emperor is also pretending to be confused......
I'm cheating! Okay, what about the basic trust between people? Routine! It's full of routines! Chris secretly sighed in his heart that the world is declining, and people's hearts are really not ancient.
Where are all those innocent and kind-hearted good people back then? At that time, people were simple, and they could get a red-coated cannon to send it away.
It's good now, the things are a little more expensive, and the other party is not fooled. Alas, it's nostalgic for the beginning of the story. Chris sighed softly, making both the Dragon Emperor and the Elven Queen think that his conscience had been discovered.
As a result, in the next second, Chris used his lower limit to correct the elves and dragons' views on Ellen Hill.
After hearing him stunned, he then spoke: "I have already given the price of conscience...... Really, didn't I discount the MiG-21 fighter! As long as 11 million gold coins, this is equivalent to saying that it is half sold and half given! โ
Of course, the elven queen knew that the price was indeed very fair, because it was four times cheaper than the F-16 that Ellan Hill sold to the elves!
Although the F-16 is more advanced in Iran Hill's external propaganda, the cheapness of real money is also coveted!
"I wouldn't mind adding something inspiring to your National Day parade. I can even fly over your heads and let everyone witness a real dragon appear over Iran Hill. "Albert felt that he could give more so that he could get more kickbacks.
In fact, the dragon clan doesn't care about any face problems, they haven't even appeared in the human world for a long time, so the Dragon Emperor is more willing to use these faces in exchange for more lining.
Of course, Chris likes some decent face, but he is also a practical person, and he doesn't want to trade too much benefit for those superficial glamour.
"We have a phalanx of dragon knights...... However, it is a pity that they are no longer combat troops, and these dragon knights will pass through the square as a phalanx of national characteristics...... In other words, they're like easter eggs. Chris said with a shrug of his shoulders.
In fact, the dragon knights of Ellan Hill are not even a police force now, they only serve as patrols in some remote places, and they have almost disappeared in large and medium-sized cities.
Because of the dense streets in large and medium-sized cities, these "otherworldly mounted police" really can't find any space to take off and land, and at the same time, in these cities, there is little need for strong force to maintain law and order.
On the contrary, in some remote areas, these dragon knights still have a certain deterrent effect on mortals and low-level magicians, especially the huge size and handsome way of appearing......
In this military parade, Iran Hill also has a dragon knight air phalanx. It's just that these dragon knights didn't participate in the parade as a participating unit. They are in the parade sequence, with a little helplessness and irony.
"Those can only be considered wurms! The wurms are just low-IQ creatures! Otherwise, do you think that with those crooked melons and cracked dates of the Magic Empire, you can enslave our great dragon warriors? The Dragon Emperor retorted dismissively.
Chris was shocked that the Dragon Emperor knew the word crooked melon and cracked date, probably in the orc dialect - but he did think that if a real dragon appeared at his parade......
So, he spoke, and said a quid pro quo that made the Dragon Emperor almost flip the table: "Then the MiG-21, buy 100 planes, and give one ......"
