As the words of the fierce wave fell, the door to the office slowly opened. And the High Priest of the Holy See and the High Elder of the Magic Association now walked in side by side.

Ariel's brow immediately furrowed at the two who came in.

But just as she was trying to figure out how to deal with the situation in front of her......

"Ahem!"

Suddenly, Mr. Connor over there suddenly coughed violently.

Ariel turned her head, and saw that the teacher's eyes were meeting her at the moment, and she immediately glanced at the second prince over there, and then coughed again.

Ariel wasn't stupid, of course, and after this simple eye contact, she immediately understood what she should do now. At that moment, when the Great Elder and the High Priest walked in, she also took advantage of the situation to go around the office for a small half circle, and finally walked quietly behind the tide and stood firmly.

"...... you?"

Tide looked a little surprised that Ariel was now standing behind him, but when he looked back at the mistress, he saw that the beautiful mistress now had a gentle and caring expression. At the same time, she bowed slightly to her husband, which was regarded as a sign of her loyalty.

Seeing this, the tide can be regarded as closing his mouth and not speaking.

"Your Highness, I don't know if we have disturbed Your Highness this time."

The Great Elder, who is the Great Magician of the Association, spoke first, and after slowly saluting towards the fierce waves, he said—

"However, I have discussed with the High Priest of the Holy See for a long time about that strange car, and I still feel that there are some things that need to be carefully considered."

Seeing these two people coming in, Fierce Wave's brows couldn't help frowning. But he still controlled his facial expression well, and said, "Elder Majik, High Priest Priest Priest, please be seated. ”

After the two old men took their seats, their eyes invariably looked at Ariel who was behind the tide, and the girl, who was still wearing a maid's dress, looked at the two with a smile as if nothing had happened, without the slightest hint of intent on-for-tat.

Seeing this, the next gaze of the two old men was immediately projected on the body of the second prince of the tide.

After suddenly coming into contact with the gaze of the Great Elder and the High Priest, the tide was slightly stunned, and then understood what was going on, and couldn't help but snort, stretched out his hand to go around the back of his chair, and twisted it when he touched Ariel's thigh behind him.

Ariel was in pain, but she managed to keep a smile on her face and not say a word.

"Elder Majik, High Priest Priest Priest, don't you...... Do you still want to oppose that carriage? If you still oppose it, it will be a little too ugly...... Ha ha. ”

A smile appeared on Fierce Wave's face, but there was already a slight sadness in his eyes.

After all, in the game just now, the difference between victory and defeat was so obvious. Moreover, it is the three Great Elders who theoretically have the strongest magic power in the Magic Association to apply magic to the convoy of the royal carriage, and it is too ugly to want to find a field from other aspects after losing in this situation.

Of course, Elder Majik understood the meaning of Menglang's current words, he nodded slightly, and said, "Your Highness, if it is about the game just now, although I don't want to admit it, there is indeed something very peculiar about that strange car. But this kind of place is not something that cannot be caught up with magic. With time, I believe that our association will be able to research magic that can drag so many objects in one go. ”

Fierce Wave nodded, still with that kind of smiling expression and said, "Oh? Then I can look forward to it. So Elder Majik, do you have any other questions? ”

"Your Highness, hehe...... Although from the level of magic, the Magic Association can be regarded as a complete loss today. ”

Now it was the High Priest of Priest Priest Priest who spoke. Compared to Elder Majik's neutral speech, the smile on the high priest's face was much gentler. He glanced at the tide over there, and said slowly—

"Regardless of how that carriage was developed, it must now belong to the Blue Bay royal family. For His Highness to be able to develop such a carriage, we, the Holy See of Light, of course, raised our hands in agreement. Just ......"

After a slight pause, Priest smiled and continued—

"I just don't know, how does Your Highness plan to use this carriage?"

"How do I use it?"

After thinking about this, Fierce Wave turned his head to look at Ariel who was standing there, and said, "This carriage is indeed very powerful, and it can be used to pull a lot of things. Baroness Garcia, do you think there's anything you can make the most of? ”

When they heard the title Baroness Garcia, the two old men, Madjik and Priest, were stunned, but they immediately calmed down.

Ariel smiled slightly, lowered her head, and looked at the tide in front of her with a soliciting gaze.

It wasn't until Tide snorted and nodded slightly that she spoke: "Back to Your Highness, there are many ranges to use. Since this carriage has such a strong force, at least, it can also be used to pull goods. What used to take ten wagons to pull can now be reached by one wagon. And the transportation of goods will presumably be an extremely facilitating thing for trade within the empire. At that time, the domestic trade in goods will become more prosperous, and His Majesty's treasury will be more abundant because of taxes. ”

After listening to Ariel's introduction, Fierce Wave nodded, smiled, and turned to High Priest Priest Priest Priest and said, "So now, do you still have questions?" ”

But in response to Ariel's answer, the high priest smiled, showed a very regretful expression, and said: "Your Highness, it's really a pity, it's a pity. If it is really used according to the Baroness Garcia's advice, then in the foreseeable future, not only will it not increase the economic power of our country, but it may lead to riots...... Maybe. ”

Menglang's eyebrows raised slightly, and at this time, the Duke of Jinguo over there also asked with a smile: "Riot?" High Priest, please do not say such horrible words in front of Your Highness. You should know what the word riot represents, right? ”

Priskey nodded, no nervousness or flinching expression on his face. He adjusted his sitting position on the sofa slightly, and said with a smile-

"Your Highness, if you really use this strange car to improve trade, according to Baroness Garcia, may I ask what to do next...... What do we need to do? ”

Fierce Wave had no idea about this kind of thing, and turned his head to look at Ariel over there.

After exhaling slightly, Ariel said with a smile, "Next, I need to buy a lot of materials to make more of this (harmony) carriage." It was then sold to all the chambers of commerce that needed a carriage for trade. ”

In this regard, the Majik Archmage immediately slapped his leg, and then stretched out two fingers to point at Ariel over there, and said, "Your Highness, this is it, this is it!" That's the crux of the matter! ”

Fierce Wave still didn't quite understand, and still frowned: "Here...... What's the problem? ”

Majik snorted and said, "Your Highness, if you really follow this maid...... If you think about it, then you can think that the goods that used to take ten wagons to transport are now only one wagon. At first glance, it seems to improve efficiency. But then, Your Highness, think of the coachmen of the other nine carriages! ”

"In this way, if one person does what could be done by ten people, won't the other nine be unemployed? Your Highness, I have collected some data on my side, and I would like you to take a look at it. ”

As he spoke, Majik raised his finger and drew a circle in front of him, and some fiery red clouds formed in front of him, and then floated in front of the fierce waves, tides, and golden fruits.

Ariel also leaned her head and watched the red clouds in front of the tide gradually converge and finally form a table. There are rows and rows of numbers on it, which seem to mean something.

Fierce Wave: "Elder Majik, what is this?" ”

The archmage snorted and continued, "Your Highness, this is the specific data that our association has collected about the staff related to the carriage. ”

"I believe Your Highness also knows that our Magic Association is not only operating some magical things, but also some non-magical institutions. Among them, we also touched on the business of horse breeding, leasing, selling, and slaughtering. And because we are involved in this work, we can roughly estimate the number of coachmen by collecting other chambers of commerce that buy horses. ”

"Your Highness, please see, the data in this first row is the number of coachmen in Hanhai City counted the year before last. Hanhai City is our capital and a big city, with a population of nearly one million, of which there are almost 3,000 carriages. ”

"These more than 3,000 carriages are not just one person occupying a carriage. A considerable number of the carriages were operated by several coachmen. These coachmen worked around the clock to earn a pittance for the fare. In this way, the number of people engaged in the trade of horse-drawn coachmen is at least more than 5,000. ”

"If, according to Baroness Garcia, all these carriages were replaced overnight with that terrible and strange strange car, more than 4,500 of the more than 5,000 coachmen would have lost their jobs at once. In our cities, there will be more than 4,500 homeless people with no income. ”
