"The new Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Principality of Steel, Augustine meets the Lord of Dawn!" The one who opened the door was a handsome young man with long blond hair, dressed in a lavish lilac robe with no markings on the cuffs or collar.

It is clear that he is the same as a nobleman in terms of dress and etiquette, but he does not have the status of a nobleman.

Augustine saluted with a charming smile, at least to many people, he had a harmless appearance.

polite, neat and tidy, the elegance that is difficult for nobles to have, but let him show it vividly.

But for William, the harmless Augustine performed far better than Goethe Narcisse in version 1.0.

Not only because he is the owner of the legendary bloodline and powerful, but also because he is also a conspirator!

If the Iron King's illegitimate son, Goethe Narciss, founded the Freedom Alliance, he only showed his faith and influence in his short life.

In other words, Goethe, like other ordinary kings, fought for his rights, but he was far from thinking about how much the free alliance system created by him would have on the legendary continent.

Generally.

Goethe is just too small......

But Augustine is not only the true heir, but also carried forward the Freedom Alliance after the fall of the Principality of Steel, and even shined in the legendary continent.

This kind of character?

How is it not worthy of William's attention?

"You may be seated." William gestured.

"Thank you." Augustine chose a chair on the left side of the conference hall, he looked at the murals and statues around him, his face was full of appreciation, and then he smiled sideways: "This trip to meet the lord, it is better to meet than to be famous."

His Majesty also asked me to bring a lot of souvenirs and gifts, do you need to bring them up first and show them to the lord? ”

William shook his head: "It's good to put it down, I have heard that most of the officials and nobles of the Principality of Steel are some conservative old men, and now you are considered a young Zhuang faction?" ”

"Your Excellency really knows the Principality of Steel, His Majesty has been trying to develop and progress recently, and many conservative nobles who have corrupted the law and even dared to encroach on the country's mineral resources have been cut down.

Newly promoted officials like us often do not have the status of nobility, because His Majesty seems to want to carry out some reform of the aristocratic system.

Now the king is more eager for the development of the lord's model, and said that I should learn more from the lord. After Augustine said this, he didn't see any change in William's expression.

However, he still smiled and said: "Your Majesty has also explained that the Principality of Steel, as a country yearning for freedom and equality, hopes to be friendly with the Dawning City, I wonder what the Lord Lordship thinks?" ”

"Establish diplomatic relations?" William chuckled as he slowly stood up and stepped down from the lord's throne.

"Why don't you talk about the conditions for the establishment of diplomatic relations first?"

Augustine sighed secretly, it was really not that simple, plus he had seen so many migrating elves outside the city, and he also knew that the originally discussed countermeasures had become provocative at this time.

But the plan could not be changed, so he could only say very tactfully: "The establishment of diplomatic relations is naturally full of benefits for both sides."

His Majesty the King knew that the development of the lord was very short of population, and he was willing to give 30,000 slaves to the lord for free.

And open a commercial channel, commercial tax revenue reduced by 8%.

It can even provide the city of dawn with a population of 30,000 and the food burden brought by half a year. ”

"Go ahead and talk about your requirements, don't just talk about the benefits." William stood in the doorway with his hands behind his back and nodded without looking back.

"And that's ...... The Iron Kingdom intends to build a military castle 30 kilometers east of Dawning City, and please rest assured, Lord Lord, we are allies and have absolutely no intentions for Dawning City. Augustine didn't know how he got it right.

Change is always faster than planned, who would have thought that in just half a year, what was once a marginal town has become a neutral city that cannot be underestimated?

"Coupled with the migration of tens of thousands of elves, it will soon become a heavy city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack......"

"Oh? Not for the Dawning City, but to be able to attack the Black Rock Principality by surprise when the war starts? William said so, but in his heart he was like Spiegel, this was the Freedom Alliance leaving a way out for himself.

Of course, there is also the intention to annex the City of Dawn.

Most importantly, the Principality of Steel is preparing for the Battle of the Dragons in a few months' time.

It can even be said that if the Principality of Steel is really allowed to build a military fortress here, and then let him build it like an iron wall, the chance of a dragon slaying battle is greater, it is easier to invade the Principality of Black Rock, and even eat the Dawning City that has lost its natural barrier by the way.

But this strategy depends on whether William gives him the opportunity to build a military castle.

Augustine saw William say this, and also knew that the war between the two principalities had become information that almost everyone knew, and he also continued to use the topic: "Yes, but it is unlikely that there will be a war, after all, our steel principality yearns for peace and freedom."

If the Black Rock Principality is really too much, when the time comes, after the war, all the territories conquered by this military castle, the Iron Principality is willing to take out equal treasures and send them into the lord's pocket.

After all, it can be seen that adults don't think about the human land. ”

Augustine said it well, but he didn't expect anything in his heart, because the Lord William in front of him could continue to grow and develop the city of Dawn, as long as he was not stupid, he would not listen to slander, and let them really build a military castle, that kind of behavior is tantamount to a shepherd's sheepfold next to a wolf's den.

Their free alliance is not strong enough now, it only took full control of the king a month ago, and now the situation in the country is very complicated, some nobles do not want to be cut by the 'king', and the matter is not so easy to solve.

Even if you are not careful, you will lose everything, so the original plan for the back road was immediately put on the agenda.

But the current forces of the Dawning City have obviously cut off their plans for the future.

But he never expected that William's next sentence would rekindle countless hopes for him!

"Military bases can be built!"

This moment.

William turned his head, his eyes full of thirst for riches, his face tangled, but there was a sense of firmness of determination, only to see his hoarse voice narrate: "I want 50,000 slaves, not old fellows, half young men and half women, preferably those who have criminal professions, you can give them to me."

100,000 gold coins, 1.2 million catties of grain, 1,000 cattle, 3,000 sheep, 10,000 chickens, ducks, geese and poultry. ”

Augustine's eyes widened in disbelief.

His power is not small, even if William's request is often excessive, but he believes that the current Dawning City has not yet had the courage to deceive the Principality of Steel, because the gap between the two sides' forces is too big, and it is ...... What a rare opportunity!

He immediately stood up and said in a deep voice, "I can promise my lord, and I hope you don't break your word!" ”

"You promised?" William's face was shocked, as if there was a feeling of disbelief, but he was relieved, and his face was still a little remorseful, as if he wanted a little less......

But Augustine, who saw this scene, smiled slightly, it turned out that he was greedy for money......

That's negotiable.

He is not afraid that the opponent is strong.

I'm afraid that the opponent has no hobbies.

"Hehe, it's really bold to ask for so many slaves." Augustine smiled happily.

"Hehe, you're a big red name, if you didn't wear equipment and couldn't break out any good things, Lao Tzu would have wanted to cut you." William was also smiling happily.

Until now.

The City of Dawn found only one Spy.

That is, the one that William tortured.

Everyone else thinks they're well hidden.

But.

An insight was thrown away, and the name could glow red......

What are the fears of the number of spies, even if there are many soldiers mixed among the 50,000 slaves, waiting for the opportunity to meet the inside and outside, it is nothing more than losing a few hundred or thousands of insights.
