Chapter 195: Shocking price
The welcoming ceremony was grand.
This solemn ceremony won the favor of Vega to a certain extent, after all, no one does not like to be taken seriously, and even in ancient times, it was said that a person died as a confidant.
Although it is a bit exaggerated.
But compared to Foster, who abandoned him several times, the kingdom's move can be said to be more than a little bit stronger.
After some pleasantries.
Vega was led by Moore to the meeting room.
"It's better to be famous than to meet, your official is really young and promising. ”
Moore sat on the throne, with the butler and Charles Alban standing behind him.
Vega put down the coffee in his hand, and then said: "Compared with the Moore patriarch, I am still far behind, I can engage in intelligence work in the imperial capital without being discovered, and even let my descendants enter the Central Military Academy, this alone makes me admire." ”
"Laugh and laugh. ”
Moore Alban smiled, always maintaining a cordial and kind attitude: "If there is no financial support from the kingdom, it will be difficult for me to gain a foothold in this empire, and don't look at the Alban family as one of the top ten commercial families, but in the eyes of officers above the brigade level, I am just a sideshow, and I can't grasp the real information of the empire at all." ”
"Isn't Mr. Charl Alban already in the military academy?"
"He just went into the general department. ”
Moore shook his head and said: "Really useful information is in the hands of officers above the brigade level, although Char is our new pilot to expand intelligence channels, but now it seems that it is useless, the Central Army will not let a cadet from the general department serve as a senior officer." ”
He smiled wryly.
Moore Alban continued: "Moreover, in the imperial capital, merchants were never taken seriously, and their status was higher than that of ordinary citizens, and even inferior to some nobles. Even if we have money, we can't put it in the hands of government and military officials, and the supervision of the judicial system is really terrifying. ”
Vega listened quietly to Moore's complaints.
Even if he didn't get involved, Vega probably knew that as a business family, it was indeed impossible to have any important information, and the intelligence system of the imperial capital was almost the same, and it was thankful that it was not discovered by the trial system.
"Sorry for saying something superfluous. ”
Moore Alban smiled sheepishly at Vega.
Then he put on a cordial expression again and said: "This time, I invite your Excellency to come over, the main thing is to talk about cooperation in detail, if you have any conditions that you can put forward, the United Kingdom is very welcome to join you, Captain Vega." ”
Seeing that he was getting to the point, Vega sat upright.
He didn't answer immediately, but thought carefully before slowly speaking: "Before I put forward the conditions, I want to know what you want me to give." ”
"Then let's be honest. ”
Moore Alban said in a crisp tone: "We hope that Captain Vega can take control of the overall situation of Karini in our place, and I think this is not a difficult task for you, Captain. ”
Vega's heart moved.
Sure enough, everything was as he guessed, the kingdom army was afraid of Kareni's whole army, so he needed him, a person with great prestige in Kareni, to control the overall situation on their behalf, and they could occupy the entire northern part of the empire without any worries.
"So, what do I get?"
Vega's words are very straightforward, if the other party's price is right, Vega thinks that this vote is completely doable, because what he has to do is only to take control of the situation for the Kingdom Army after the Kingdom Army recaptures Kareni.
There is no need to lead the charge, and there is no need to risk your life.
There is no danger at all.
At that time, as long as he is involved in a few major righteousness, with his influence among the Kareni people, there is no need to worry about being opposed.
With eyes on Moore Alban, Vega waited for an answer.
Moore Alban immediately laughed and said: "Your Excellency does not have to worry about our sincerity, when the kingdom conquers the north of the empire, you will be canonized by the kingdom as the Marquis of Kareni, and Kareni City will also be your direct fiefdom, in addition to not allowing troops above the brigade level, your nobleman can establish an independent marquis state in Kareni and enjoy political and economic independence, what do you think?"
Silence –
The silence lasted for a full three minutes.
During this period, Vega didn't say a word, and he was completely stunned by the price offered by the other party.
Kingdoms do not have the same system as empires.
In the United Kingdom, the aristocracy is the one in power, including the current high-ranking officers in the army, 90 percent of whom are held by the aristocracy, and the other 10 per cent, if not nobles, are in the service of the big nobles.
Although today, ordinary nobles are no longer allowed to obtain fiefs, but grand dukes and marquis are also allowed to establish independent duchies and marquises, and the price given by the other party is a marquis with a fief.
This is a condition that only a fool would refuse.
After being a little stunned, Vega hurriedly agreed to the other party's conditions: "Patriarch Moore, I am very satisfied with your conditions, as long as you are right, I can go back to Kareni to do things for you now." ”
"Rest easy. ”
Moore Alban smiled: "According to the kingdom's plan, we will attack Kareni again before the repair of the Kareni Crystal Hub is completed, and we will naturally inform your officials at that time, during this period, please wait in peace in the military academy, and don't do anything to startle the snake." ”
"I see. ”
Vega took a deep breath and tried to stop his restless heart, but the temptation to establish a Hou State was too great for him to calm down no matter what, and he even longed for the Kingdom Army to attack immediately.
Emperor.
It's everyone's dream.
Especially the Vega who came through the time, this temptation is needless to say, in another three months, once he is canonized as a marquis and obtains a fief, he will be the king of Kareni City.
"So happy to work with. ”
Moore Alban smiled, then gave Vega a kingdom salute.
"It was a pleasure to work with. ”
The excited Vega also saluted the military salute of the kingdom in the same way, but fortunately this scene was not seen by the officers of the empire, otherwise even ten heads would not be enough to be cut off.
As a result of the success of the cooperation.
Moore Alban asked Vega to stay for dinner after being polite, but Vega insisted on leaving. So Moore enthusiastically sent Vega to the gate of the manor, and asked Char to send Vega back to the military academy, but Vega still refused, because Vega wanted to go to the business district to see the third-order shadow magic.
The commercial area is on the east side of the estate.
So when Moore Alban returned to the manor, Vega headed towards the east side of the manor.
But before he could go five hundred meters, Vega stopped.
After the excitement and excitement, he had calmed down at this time, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he had entered the time of the sage.
Vega, who entered the time of the Sage, began to wonder if the kingdom would really fulfill this promise?
