Section 237 Hooked
(7.14 2nd Update)
"In Cologne, the Count ran large factories and monopolized certain trades, and was a very successful businessman. What about the preferential option for the 30-year tax exemption rate in Tulane? ”
Trade is a channel for communication between countries, and tariffs are also the core of the financial system, which can be regarded as the greatest benefit in addition to resources, and it is a sincerity that cannot be underestimated to be able to open up a free way.
"Oh? Is this what Vic meant? It doesn't seem wise, and it's a loss-making deal. ”
"This is a repeat of the instructions before leaving, and it is also a helpless choice in front of you, if you can survive the difficult period, then everything will develop towards the light, and it will be easy."
"You go back and tell Vic, I'll consider his proposal and give him an answer when the time is right."
"Then I'll wait for good news, and I won't disturb your elegance."
The excited chief knocked down the renovated door sign, and the café continued to open. The timid masses are still hovering in front of the door.
The attendant was calm, ignoring all the gloom of the experience, and restocking the overturned coffee.
"Which faction are you, and it seems to be very strong!"
"I'm a deacon hired by the café, and I don't have a supporting role for a position, but I just know the rough survival skills."
"I see, let's go and prepare, maybe it's going to be busy."
The attendant bowed and pushed the door open, but the hesitant people continued to watch the situation and did not dare to move.
"Bell, why did you refuse Vic's invitation? That seems tempting. ”
"It's easy to sign the agreement, but it's very difficult to practice, the current Blackcoat Society can only be regarded as a battle of trapped beasts, and when Olis's elite soldiers come to the city, they will be in an embarrassment. It is very difficult to abandon business, even if it is a pleasantry. ”
"Then since General Vic has an insight into our whereabouts, he won't release us easily, right?"
Xiao Yi looked around the window, perhaps a detective hired by the Black Society, who was watching us.
"On the contrary, after a few duels, he will realize that my paranoid personality and tough attitude can only hurt himself, so we should be free."
"Huh? Isn't he alone and ready for a rout? At that time, it will be difficult to make up for the destroyed balance, and there will be no gaps in the restoration. ”
"Yes, so to coordinate the weights, we should have faith in Vic, he has contacted the allies."
Xiao Yi touched his head, couldn't tell the chaotic relationship, and tasted the cool juice, but it was still vague.
"It is a warlord on the frontier, and it is already a felony to evacuate the territory without authorization, and it is even more unforgivable to collude with foreign invasions. Two partners who are both in trouble will catalyze the progress of friendship, even if it was previously hostile. ”
I stand up, pay and leave the café, joint? Depleted resources are also a test.
The crowd waiting in front of the door, pretending to be walking, did not dare to point their eyes at us, a very funny and clumsy performance. After walking a distance, I frantically poured into the café.
"Bell, what are they going to do to reach a state of obsession?"
"Maybe it's gathered in front of our place, looking for the remaining traces, but it's just futile boredom."
The people who are following are also continuing to have a strong sense of curiosity, which is difficult to get rid of.
"Hehe, they're all very amateur detectives, but it's also weird."
Xiao Yi turned his head from time to time to look at the world behind him, and the slight flaws were being revealed.
I flashed in front of Xiao Yi, getting closer and closer, and I seemed to be able to hear the hot heartbeat.
"Shh
The romantic progression stimulates the tracker's vision, and they are all deliberately avoiding. When I looked back again, it had disappeared into a blank space.
Pulling Xiao Yi and shuttling around the block, when he returned to the store, he was already out of breath, but very comfortable.
"Such an embarrassed young master, is he being tracked by hostility?"
"Huh, the enemy is not enough, worshippers are more suitable, to reduce travel and avoid congestion."
"yes, that's some obsessive stalker, who went out of their way to follow them, and they were almost discovered!"
"However, it seems to be a very warm scene, Your Highness the Princess!"
The cunning Si Qi's easy temptation made Xiao Yi shy, and ran into the inner room under the pretext of changing clothes.
"What's the matter? It's so mysterious. ”
"Does the young master remember that Mr. Carter?"
"Carter? It's a familiar name, but when it comes to the process, the brain is blank and mutilated. ”
"It's the arrogant envoy of Zhujiao Country, the character who once lost in the competition."
When I started to search for memories, I was almost confused, and there were a lot of people I ignored.
"What's wrong with him?"
"He's waiting for you in the dungeon, it seems like an emergency, floating from the inner lake, it's very hard."
Siqi pushed open the stone door in the wall, which was a newly developed area, to hide from surveillance. The figure sitting in the shadows, the messenger for help, realized my presence and hurriedly got up to greet me.
"Earl, it's been a long time, but you're still just as handsome."
"Eh, put away this kind of politeness, if there is anything, it is not a diplomatic way, and it is a friend who knows each other."
"Well, I didn't expect the Earl to still keep our memories, so please give me advice!"
Carter changed the mood on his face in the blink of an eye, perhaps sadness was his portrayal.
"Maybe the Earl knows that among the border warlords outside the city, there is an element of the Zhujiao Kingdom, and that was my confused decision, and now that Olis is angry, my situation is very passive, and I can even hear the cry of death."
Carter does not save on exaggerated embellishments, and that sad mood is being pushed to the limit.
"Yes, the warlords are very rampant, but they have not been able to invade Wuluosha City, between the stalemate, it is inevitable that there will be omissions, since it is fear, why not withdraw the army and return to Zhujiao Country?"
"Alas, then blame my greed, I made an oath in front of the king at that time, and now I am to blame for the rout, and the huge family will also pay the price."
The gentle sigh is the humility that has been brewing in the heart for a long time, Carter is very frightened, and it has always been a trill.
"So, what do you want? At least have a clear plan. ”
"Yes, there are only two ways to survive for the time being. The first is to compromise with General Vic, who we still have friends with in the imperial capital, and who will also absorb allies under the pressure of Olis. The second is to surrender to Ollis, destroy Vic and retreat. ”
Carter has considered all the possibilities, and he always has to rely on one side or the other, but he has not yet made a decision.
"Oh? As paradoxical as it sounds, what are your initial thoughts? ”
"I know very well that Vic is a person who will provide me with a path to step down, regardless of his past suspicions. But Ollis is too terrifying, even if it is a coalition army, it is difficult to stop his rhythm, at most, he is once again stalemate after the distribution of forces. But the deadline I promised is approaching, and people are terrible, so it is very contradictory. ”
Carter drank a cup of tea, originally trying to stop thinking, but was choked and coughed while holding his chest.
"Regarding the second point, I have repeatedly deliberated that Olis is a very despicable person, and it is his habitual way to disobey the yang and the yin, so it is unwise to entrust him with everything, and it will be completely swallowed up by him when the time comes, and it will be even more tragic."
"It seems so, why don't you consider breaking away from Zhujiao and standing on your own?"
"Alas, the rule of the army is in the hands of the generals, how can it be left to me? Earl, you must save me! ”
It's a very difficult question, and it is blamed on me, Carter's pious gesture, God will also appreciate, but I am not God.
"I don't seem to be able to do anything about all the possibilities that have been denied, and the only way is to sacrifice myself and take care of the overall situation."
"Mr. Siqi, please tell me in front of the earl!"
Carter was entwined with Siqi, and it was a very tenacious determination to escape from death.
"Young Master, since you have a way, why don't you speak out and save the crisis temporarily?"
A serious nonsense is the beginning of Siqi's seductive way, and I don't know what he is talking about.
"Regarding the movements of the Coron Kingdom, they are all being watched by the outside world, and being able to deceive King Zhujiao and help Mr. Carter avoid difficulties is also to sublimate friendship!"
After a more detailed explanation, I seem to understand the rules.
"Well, that's also an attempt, I wonder what Mr. Carter thinks?"
"As long as my survival can be guaranteed, I will look at the earl's horse, but the principle, or trouble the earl to elaborate."
"It's very simple, the first way, unite with Vic and fight against Olise together. As for the deadline you have stated, leave it to me, and I may draw up a letter saying that the kingdom of Coron is ready to intervene in the dispute, and that your king will be willing to wait. ”
"However, the Earl does not seem to have such great power, and his credibility will be very low."
"In the name of the Bella's family, if it was General Ster's suggestion, what would it be?"
Carter came to his senses and smiled slightly.
"General Sturt, that's the perfect strategy, it's up to the Earl to decide!"
I've been hooked. (To be continued.) )
