Duchamp, who was on the deck, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that the feathered fishing rod in his hand moved slightly, and hurriedly calmed down, raised his wrist, and flicked it back gently, and a small fish with a shimmering body involuntarily wandered in the air. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Good luck, shimmer snapper!" Councillor Cassel praised loudly, and hurriedly helped Duchamp put this uncommon small fish into the fish bucket, afraid that he would not know the goods, and specially instructed: "This shimmering sea bream, which is not often caught, can be brought back, as an ornamental fish breeding, at night you can see that the whole body is glowing, and you can also feed some seaweed made of brightener to keep it bright in color." ”

The inadvertentity of catching a rare fish made Duchamp's mood better, and he even began to indulge in the joy of fishing so intently that he almost forgot about a certain big man who was walking towards him.

Chief Yusuf walked out of the hatch, took a fishing rod from the waiter's hand, walked towards Duchamp, threw down the fishing rod on the side, and looked for a topic: "This little brother, although he came from the northeast that is not near the sea, is also very skilled in watching this fishing posture. ”

Duchamp skillfully controlled the feather rod and caught another small fish. He put the fish in the bucket and explained unhurriedly: "Fishing is one of the compulsory cultivation courses for the nobles of the empire, and I myself am still a junior member of the Fishing Emperor Club, if I am not too busy and have no time to participate in the club's fishing competition, I should be an intermediate member now." ”

"Oh! I have heard of the Fishing Emperor Club, if it weren't for the inconvenience of participating in their competitions in the army, I would have joined the Fishing Emperor Club. Yusuf laughed and threw the rod out.

The surface of the water chosen by Duchamp is indeed a blessed place for fishing, and small fish are hooked one after another.

"Although this little brother is from Gatapunia, he doesn't have a northland accent at all, so he must not be a native of Gatapunia, right?" The adult asked as he fished.

Duchamp turned around and formally introduced himself: "My name is S. Duchamp, a native of Gatapunia, and I heard that the local grain of Julay was unsalable, so I came here to buy some cheap grain. ”

The adult did not introduce himself formally, he looked intently at the fish float in the water, and asked casually: "How much have prices risen in Gatapunia?" ”

Duchamp's heart sank, he made a formal salute, but the other party didn't even look at it, he tried his best to keep the muscles on his face as they were, and replied lightly: "The food is about three times that of Zhulai City, and the other daily necessities are about twice that of Zhulai City." ”

"Prices are so high, there must be a mess in the territory now."

What a word! Do you want to blackmail it? Dushang didn't know what kind of medicine this Lieutenant Colonel Yusuf was selling, so he said without showing weakness: "At least it is much stronger than Julai, the residents of Gatapunia generally live by hunting magical beasts, collecting medicinal herbs and excavating Qiyao stones, and the expenditure on food is not much in the daily expenditure, not to mention that there is also Lu Lei's side that can replenish food, but the freight is a little higher." The other economic resources of the territory were not affected at all. ”

"Oh!" The lieutenant colonel was given this tough answer, looked up at Duchamp, twisted his mustache, and replied: "In that case, then what are you doing in Julai?" ”

"Of course, I'm here to make money, the two places are not far apart, and there is such a big price difference to make money, of course, I have to take advantage of the fact that the level of the Eagle Pass is still there, and hurry up to make a big profit."

"Big? Didn't you come on behalf of your lord? The lieutenant colonel glanced at Duchamp suspiciously.

The corners of Duchamp's mouth twitched, and he smiled whimsically. "Of course, of course, but it doesn't affect me personally to make a little money while running errands for the lord. Excluding freight, according to the current price of grain in Julai, this business is no problem for making money. After talking nonsense about not being nutritious for a long time, Duchamp became impatient and asked extremely shamefully: "It's all said and done, are you not interested?" ”

The lieutenant colonel straightened his clothes, and Zhengyan replied: "Although Delgado and I have a good relationship, and I take care of them as much as possible in logistics procurement on weekdays, I can't agree to this matter!" ”

Duchamp didn't expect the lieutenant colonel to say so simply and ruthlessly, and he was stunned for a while.

He took the rod, looked directly at Lieutenant Colonel Yusuf, and asked, "Why?" It's something that's good for both places, and it's good for you, so why wouldn't you want to do it? ”

The lieutenant colonel straightened his waist and said solemnly: "Of course, it's because of violating military discipline." ”

Duchamp's eyes widened and he said in surprise: "I really can't see that you are such an upright person!" ”

These words made Lieutenant Colonel Yusuf very unpleasant, he turned his face and said coldly: "After all, Julai has only just been incorporated into the empire, and this group of parliamentarians is completely ignorant of the height of the sky, and they can also interfere in this kind of thing. As for you, whether or not you are really the representative sent by Viscount von Theresa to negotiate, I can only tell you that this matter can never be resolved from a private point of view. ”

Duchamp continued to smile and said: "Don't be so ruthless, in the face of the temptation of tens of millions of miles, are you unmoved? Even if you are not tempted, it is inevitable that others will be tempted, so it is better for you to cooperate with us. ”

Lieutenant Colonel Yusuf sank his face and said unhappily: "Little ghost, you are only a little older, how could Viscount von Theresa send you out to deal with such an important matter." ”

Gremlin!

Duchamp sneered in his heart, but he made an expression on his face that was not heaven-high. "Of course, it's because I'm supernatural, not because I'm boasting, but I still have a little talent in business. Gatapunia stockpiles food for the winter from September to October every year, and your army made a surprise move in September last year to block the grain route at Eagle Pass, and the lord did not find me until mid-October, and I urgently delivered a full 3,000 torim of wheat to the territory for the winter in a month's time. ”

"yes, you have that kind of ability!" Lieutenant Colonel Yusuf looked Duchamp in surprise, wondering if he was telling the truth.

Duchamp still had that innocent and immodest smile on his face, and said half-truthfully: "This year, seeing that winter is coming again, I just came out to buy grain again according to the custom." Considering Julai, I just think that this place is a little closer, maybe it can be cheaper. Otherwise, it would not be a big deal to order grain from the Southern Lakes and transport it to Gatapunia via Rure and Yumir. Isn't it just that the shipping is a little more expensive, and we can't afford it. ”

Lieutenant Colonel Yusuf glanced at Duchamp a few times, and said angrily: "What a tough little ghost! In that case, I don't have to waste my time here. With that, he quickly gathered the rod, threw it to the attendant beside him, turned and walked back.

A sturdy figure stood in his way.

Olivier made a standard aristocratic salute to Yousuf, and said solemnly in his standard imperial capital accent: "I'm sorry, Lieutenant Colonel, I have a question for you to ask you a few more minutes, as far as I know, the imperial garrison has no right to interfere in local affairs, and what kind of momentum can the 19th Division rely on to blockade the Eagle Pass?" ”

Yusuf frowned, Olivier's accent made him wary. He glanced at Olivier, a smile slowly appearing on his face.

"Ha, I thought you weren't interested in that! For Delgado's sake, I'll point you out once. ”

Duchamp hurriedly pricked up his ears and listened intently.

I only heard Lieutenant Colonel Yusufu say with a straight face: "Don't ask where the order of the 19th Division came from, that is not an area where you can intervene. Don't be delusional about getting any help from these councillors. Without an order from the top, the 19th Division would not let a grain of grain pass through the Eagle Pass. The only solution was through the lords of Gatapunia and the consultation with the military ministry and the cabinet. For the sake of Delgado's face, I'm all about to say this, you better stop wasting time here, and quickly solve it through formal channels, which is the real way. ”

With that, he put away his fishing rod, took small figure-eight steps, and walked towards the lounge.

"Poof!" An untimely laugh came from behind.

Duchamp shouted behind the lieutenant colonel: "Stop dreaming! We're not going to send a letter to the Cabinet! ”
