While Karl was educating Richelieu, Joseph ascended to Karl's flagship with his own answers.

"My lord, General Joseph has something to ask to see." The guard reported to Carl via the communicator.

"Let him in five minutes." Karl replied.

"Yes, my lord."

Five minutes later, after cleaning up, Karl and the others sat down separately.

"Let him in." Karl said to the guards.

"Yes, my lord."

The guard opened the door, then rushed out and said, "General Joseph, please, the head of the house has been waiting inside for a long time." ”

"Thank you." Joseph thanked the guards at the door and walked into the room.

"Hello Master Karl, Miss Tinigfi, Miss Richelieu, and this beautiful young lady." He greeted a few people first, and then said, "Master Karl, the results of our discussion have come out as to the plan you have asked Miss Richelieu to provide us. ”

"Oh? What is it? Carl asked nonchalantly.

Joseph took a deep breath and said, "Lord Karl, we have decided to accept your suggestions and proposals. When our revenge is successful, the few of us will be at your disposal with the officers and soldiers who are still willing to follow us, as well as their families. ”

With that, he stood quietly waiting for Karl's answer.

"General Joseph, if the information in my hand is correct, you should be one of the Hathaway family members who are relatively close in blood and lineage, right?" Carl asked with a few gentle touches on his tablet.

"Yes, Master Karl. My grandfather was the younger brother of the head of the previous family, so he was relatively close to the lineage. Joseph nodded.

"So, General Joseph, do you have any places you want to go? Or rather, where are you going? Carl asked, looking at Joseph.

"At the behest of Lord Karl, we don't know where we can go." Joseph bowed his head and said.

"As for your future arrangements, let's wait until this battle is over. The primary goal now is to clear the Springs of all rebels before arranging for you. Do you think that's okay? Although it was a consultative word, Karl said it in an affirmative tone.

"It's up to Lord Karl!" Joseph immediately blurted out.

"Let's put it that way, is there anything else? General Joseph. Karl stood up from his chair, and the eviction was obvious.

"Karl-sama, please wait! That's right, because didn't you offer to hire those mercenaries to assist us? However, we calculated the difference in combat effectiveness between the mercenary ships and the ships used by our Imperial Navy, and found that the mercenary group of the Golden Saint Judge alone could not meet the requirements of the number of dreadnoughts. So we think ... Joseph glanced at Karl and saw that he didn't show any other expression, and then said, "I would like to ask Lord Karl if you can hire a few more mercenary groups?" In this case, lest there be a repeat of the failure of the last time ... ”

"Hire more mercenary groups, won't you? No problem, anything else? Carl said very cheerfully.

Seeing that the intention of evicting the guest in Karl's eyes became more and more obvious, Joseph said with interest: "No, Lord Karl. Then the lowly will go back to prepare for the battle first. ”

"Well, I'll let the guards take you back. It just so happens that I have something to do here, so I won't send it far. Karl nodded.

After Joseph left, Karl turned to Tinnigefi and said, "Fifi, we seem to have missed a little before!" I actually forgot that the battleships circulating in the market are all castrated versions. ”

"Yes, young master, this is indeed my negligence. I forgot that the ships on the market were only 60% of the performance of our own use, and that would have to increase the cost of our hiring. Please also punish the young master! Dinigfeld said with a look of shame.

"It's okay, people are negligent sometimes. After all, the responsibility lies with me! It was I who approved the proposal after it was handed over to you, so I have a part of the responsibility. Carl said hurriedly.

"But young master, the original cost of hiring these mercenaries was from the family's finances, and it needed to be approved by the eldest lady. Originally, I had already reported to the eldest lady, and the eldest lady had already approved it. But now, if you add a fee... The eldest lady may not be able to agree. Tinnigefi reported to Carl.

"Then find a way to get through! Don't tell me Fei Fei, you can't even make fake accounts. Carl said nonchalantly.

"Huh? Master, are you sure you want to do this? Dinigfeld suddenly asked with a smile on his face.

"Of course! If I don't find a way to ask my sister for money, then she will have to deduct it from my own daily expenses. Carl said subconsciously.

"Okay, if that's the case, then I understand." Dinigfeld said.

"Help me connect to the Yaksa's communications, I need to hire more fighters from them." Carl said to Tinigffield.

"Okay, young master. Please wait. After knocking back and forth on the tablet a few times, Dinigfeld looked up and said to Carl, "Count down to three seconds, three, two, one!" It's connected, young master. ”

"Hello? This is Yaksa, who is looking for me? Yaxa's respectful voice came over the communicator.

"I'm Karl, Mr. Jaxa, how much more do we need to pay if we hire more?" Carl asked, picking up the intercom.

"Oh my God! The gods are above! It turned out to be Lord Karl! Forgive me for my agitation, I never expected that a noble Elector would personally call me. Yaksa said excitedly.

"Don't say more polite words, Mr. Jaxa, I ask you. If we hire an additional batch, will your alliance be able to eat it? Carl stopped his flattery and asked.

"Eat! Of course you can eat it! How many mercenary warriors and warships do you need to continue hiring, Lord Karl? Jacques said overjoyed.

Karl silently calculated in his mind and said, "According to the standard of a ten-person clone pilot, an additional thirty dreadnoughts need to be hired. ”

"So you need to hire three hundred more clone pilots?" Jaxa asked.

"Yes, of course, if you don't have that many cloned pilots, you can send out regular pilots. However, in that case, the commission will not be the same price as the commission of the clone pilot. Karl said to Jaxa.
