Chapter 61: Do You Want to Fight?
(Great Khan, suddenly found that the chapter name directly missed chapter 5758.) But it's okay, it's just that the chapter name is wrong, and the content is still continuous, no problem. Because the chapter name can't be changed, so you can only make the mistake wrong, and please forgive me. )
The information about the large number of chambers of commerce in the Candela Empire acquiring various chambers of commerce related to the magic industry in the Lampari Kingdom was also placed in front of Sevigny.
However, compared with the information that Baron Hainas sent to Xu Yi, the information in Sevigny's hand was several times thicker and much more detailed.
This was the third time that Sevini had read the information carefully, but he was still reading it very slowly, almost reading it word for word.
Because she knew very well that this matter was too important to the Lampari Kingdom, and if she was not careful, it was very likely that the Lampari Kingdom would bury all the little advantages that had been hard won over the years.
If she was given any choice, she would actually want to use the power of the kingdom to interfere in these transactions, and never let the big chambers of commerce in the Candela Empire swallow these chambers of commerce related to the magic industry that had developed so hard in the Lampari Kingdom.
Because this will greatly affect the foundation of the magic industry that has been initially formed in the Lampari Kingdom, and it will have a severe impact on the entire kingdom.
For example, now the big chambers of commerce from the Candela Empire have completed the seventeen chambers of commerce related to the magic industry in the Lampari Kingdom, and now there is a shortage of many related industrial products in the Lampari Kingdom.
Yesterday, the female officials in the palace wanted to purchase a batch of new metal washbasins as a supplement, but found that there was a shortage of goods in Anweimar City.
This is the first time this has happened since the invention of the Magic Stamping Machine that can be specially used to punch metal basins of different shapes.
Thus. Those seventeen chambers of commerce were acquired. In fact, it has already had a certain impact on the kingdom of Lampari.
However, Severny could not voluntarily use the power of the palace to forcibly block these acquisitions.
First, it was like what she had said before to the Marquis de Cartes, Minister of Commerce of the Candela Empire. The power of the kingdom is mostly used to protect legitimate trade, rather than to forcibly interfere, which is not conducive to the normal development of commercial trade.
The second, and most important reason, is that she is unwilling to tear her face with the Candela Empire because of this.
Although there has been some unhappiness between the Lampari Kingdom and the Candela Empire because of their secret support for the Luxon Kingdom, since the two sides have not torn their faces, it is not a big problem.
This time, the Candela Empire actually sent a big man like the Minister of Commerce to personally lead a delegation to the Lampari Kingdom, which actually showed that the Candela Empire wanted the Lampari Kingdom to reconcile.
Severny could sternly reject the Marquis de Descartes' offer for the Lampari Kingdom to forcibly transfer all the technology related to magical machinery to the Candela Empire. Because she did so with a reason, and she could also use the Wizards' Guild as a shield, so that the Candela Empire would have nothing to say.
However, the great chambers of commerce of the Candela Empire brought by the Marquis of Descartes proposed a wholly-owned acquisition to the magical machinery chambers in the Lampari Kingdom, and it was difficult for Severny to forcibly stop them.
Because it goes against what she said about freedom of trade, and doing so is tantamount to making it clear that she is working against the Candela Empire.
Even if the Candela Empire was defeated by the Ruerson Kingdom twice before, it was one of the two major empires in the Sainz Continent after all, several times stronger than the Lampari Kingdom, far from being able to match the Lampari Kingdom.
If you tear your face directly, the Lampari Kingdom may face great danger.
What's more, the Candela Empire had to be quite sincere this time, when these big chambers of commerce began to make acquisitions. The Marquis de Descartes immediately took the initiative to see Severny again, and expressed to him that he hoped that the officials of the Kingdom of Lampari would not obstruct these acquisitions.
For this purpose, the Marquis de Cartesian represented the official Candela Empire. A number of preferential policies were offered to the Kingdom of Lampari as compensation.
One of them is to fully open the domestic market of the Candela Empire to the Kingdom of Lampari, and take the initiative to reduce the tariffs on many goods in the Kingdom of Lampari.
This is one of the conditions put forward by the Marquis of Descartes when he hoped that the Kingdom of Lampari would take the initiative to transfer the technology related to magic machinery, and it is also one of the conditions that Severny is most tempted by.
Now that the Marquis de Descartes has taken it out again, and other preferential policies, it is impossible for Sè Poigny to refuse the request made by the Marquis de Descartes.
As a result, the acquisitions proposed by the big chambers of commerce from the Candela Empire against the various magical machinery chambers in the Lampari Kingdom have not been hindered by the officials of the Lampari Kingdom from beginning to end.
With the attractive terms they offered, these acquisitions went very smoothly.
Of course, these were still not the main reasons why Severny agreed to the Marquis de Descartes to make these conditions on behalf of the Candela Empire.
Without preparation, Sevini would not allow such a thing to happen, which was very likely to cause turmoil in the entire Lampari Kingdom.
After putting down the thick piece of information in his hand, Sevini pondered for a moment before pressing a button on the table.
The valet pushed the door open and walked in.
"Are you all there?" asked Sevigny.
The maid bowed respectfully and replied, "We have been waiting in the hall for a while." ”
"Alright, let's go. ”
Sevini nodded, got up and walked outside.
###
Daddy Luffy glanced up at the golden roof above his head and swallowed a mouthful of spit.
The palace was as luxurious as the legend said, which opened the eyes of his native bun from the small city of Saltan City, and also made his heart even more uneasy.
"Hey, Doyer, what do you think Her Majesty wants to do when she summons us?" asked Daddy Luffyer, who was also watching Doyer, who was also watching the surroundings.
Doyer withdrew his reluctant gaze, licked his lips and said, "Damn, the palace is so beautiful! When I go back, I must make my private estate so beautiful like this!"
Father Luffy rolled his eyes: "Come on, do you believe that you are going to spend all the hundreds of thousands of dollars you sold to the Chamber of Commerce like this?"
Doyer smiled: "Even if it can't be exactly the same." It's good to make it look close. I'm going to give the guys in Saltan who are laughing at me a good look. Who is the nouveau riche who has no taste!"
Daddy Luffy could only roll his eyes again: "Okay, okay." Don't talk about these useless things, let's care about the present. You say, why did Her Majesty summon us together?"
Doyer pursed his lips and said nonchalantly: "Summon, summon, what are you nervous about? Her Majesty the Queen has always been wise and benevolent, can you still eat us?"
"But I always feel ...... This has something to do with the fact that we sold the Chamber of Commerce. Do you think it will ...... Her Majesty the Queen is not satisfied with us selling the Chamber of Commerce to the Candela Empire, and wants to trouble us?" asked Father Luffy, still worried.
Doyer immediately let out a sneer: "Ha, Ruf. Do you really think that Her Majesty doesn't know what we people have done? Sue you, if Her Majesty really doesn't want us to sell, then we won't be able to sell any of them, believe it or not?"
"Hmm...... That's ......," said Father Luffy, "but I still don't understand why Her Majesty summoned us?" ”
"It's simpler, it must have something to do with it. But I don't think it's going to be a bad thing, otherwise it would be nice for Her Majesty the Queen to send someone to arrest us. Doyer still didn't care.
"Yes...... too" The expression on Daddy Luff's face relaxed a little, but he was still a little worried after all.
I was about to ask again. But suddenly I caught a glimpse of a female official of the royal palace walking into the hall where everyone was.
"Her Majesty the Queen has arrived!"
A soft drink came out of the female official's mouth, and the originally noisy crowd in the hall instantly quieted down together.
All eyes were on the entrance to the hall. There was a deep sense of curiosity and excitement on their faces.
These people were all ordinary merchants from all over the kingdom of Lampari, and it can be said that the vast majority of them had never met Her Majesty Queen Sevigny with their own eyes.
Now that they have the opportunity to see the legendary Queen Xià with their own eyes, everyone is of course excited.
A moment later, a young woman dressed in a pale gold robe, richly dressed, and majestic, but also felt kind and gentle at first sight.
Because the major newspapers in the Lampari Kingdom have published the portrait of Queen Sevigny's Majesty Xià before, so that everyone knows some of her appearance, but after all, the portrait is very different from the real person, and now seeing it with their own eyes, everyone immediately found that the queen Xià, who has a high prestige in the Lampari Kingdom, is even more intimate than the legend.
Although the smell of majesty on her body is equally strong, this majesty does not make people fearful, but because of the kindness she gives people, people respect and love her from the bottom of their hearts.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, the corners of Sevigny's lips rose to reveal a smile.
Just such a simple smile, immediately like a spring breeze blowing across the earth, instantly melted the tension in everyone's hearts, and made everyone feel as comfortable as a spring breeze.
"Good afternoon, everyone. Severny smiled and raised his hand to greet the crowd.
Everyone in the hall bowed down and saluted Severny as if they had just woken up from a dream.
When everyone straightened up again, Sevigny nodded, didn't talk nonsense, and said straight to the point: "I think there must be many people who have guessed the reason why I suddenly summoned you this time. That's right, all of you here are the presidents and representatives of those chambers of commerce who sold their chambers of commerce to the chambers of commerce belonging to the Candela Empire, and I summoned you today to have something to do with this matter. ”
Hearing Sevigny's words, everyone in the hall was not surprised, but breathed a sigh of relief.
Since Her Majesty the Queen has brought up this matter without concealing it at all, it proves that she should not pursue it.
Doyer also smiled at Daddy Luffy and raised an eyebrow to show his foresight.
However, Father Luffy didn't look at him at all, still focusing on Sevigny.
"First of all, rest assured, I'm not here to pursue anything. Secondly, I summoned you here this time to discuss something with you. Sevini paused and continued: "Because you have sold the chambers of commerce in your hands, you have obtained a large amount of money from those big chambers of commerce in the Candela Empire, so I want to ask, are you ready to spend the rest of your lives with these funds, or are you ready to fight again?"
Everyone in the hall looked at each other, and Father Luffy also turned his head to look at Doyer in astonishment.
This is an issue they have discussed before, but I didn't expect that now Her Majesty the Queen actually brought it up.
A person in the hall suddenly raised his right hand in the air.
"President Soros, do you have any questions?" Severny nodded to the man.
President Soros, who raised his hand, was stunned, but he didn't expect Her Majesty the Queen to call out his name in one bite.
"Your Majesty, I would like to ask what if we wish to fight again?"
Severny smiled slightly: "If you want to, I have a good opportunity in front of you now, but I don't know if I want to accept it?" (To be continued......)
