Watching the huge convoy composed entirely of magic locomotives disappear into the distance of the road, Kota, the leader of the third squad of the Lemat City City Defense Army, took out the money bag that Xu Yi gave him just now, counted and found that there were a total of twenty-five gold coins in it, and smiled with satisfaction.

Turning his head to catch a glimpse of the subordinates around him, his eyes were firmly fixed on the money bag in his hand, and Kota snorted coldly: "A bunch of rabbit cubs who see money." ”

After finishing speaking, he still grabbed a handful of gold coins from his money bag and threw a gold coin to each of his subordinates.

The soldiers of the third squad who received the gold coins immediately smiled and thanked Kota repeatedly.

Kota cursed, and called his deputy to admonish, "Watch it well here, and if those guys don't give up and want to come back and walk from here, stop me." If you dare to let a car and a person pass, you know the consequences. ”

The deputy replied in unison.

Kota nodded, waved his hand to his subordinates again, and shouted, "After the evening is over, everyone goes to the Forest Tavern to drink, I have a treat!"

Amid the cheers of his men, Kota flipped onto his stalled horse and turned around and galloped away towards the distant city of Lemat.

Half an hour later, Kota rode directly through the walls of the city of Lemat, and through the streets of the city, which were not very wide, to the city lord's palace in the center of the city.

After the briefing, Cota met the lord of the city, Count Scandi Weil, who he rarely saw in the reception hall of the city lord's mansion

"Look at the signs on those magic locomotives, are you sure it's the team of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce?" Count Will asked in a deep voice as he stared at Kota with two rays of light in his narrowed eyes.

Kota hurriedly lowered his head. Don't dare to look at Earl Will. In a very affirmative tone, he replied, "Back to the words of Lord Castle." The subordinates could clearly see that the fleet was all composed of magic locomotives, and each magic locomotive had the same logo on it, exactly the same as the monogram of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce that you had shown your subordinates before. ”

"Really, that's right?" Will seemed to take the issue very seriously, reconfirming.

"Yes, the subordinates vouched for their lives, and there was absolutely no mistake. ”

Earl Will frowned slightly, as if there was always some disbelief. I wanted to ask again, but a middle-aged man with a medium size and a thin face sitting on the other side suddenly spoke.

"Count Will, I don't think you need to doubt it anymore. In addition to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, only Filson Motors and Horses in the entire Lampari Kingdom currently has so many magic locomotives. Since this convoy is hung with the monogram of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it should be that the convoy of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not wrong. ”

Count Will pondered for a moment and nodded.

"Since you said so, Count Michelle, it should be true. Alright, go down. ”

Seeing that Cota had retreated, the other man sitting opposite Count Michel, who was much younger than both Count Will and Count Michelle, and who looked to be less than forty years old on the outside, frowned. He sighed lightly.

"Actually, I've always thought, isn't it good for us to do this?"

Count Will and Count Michelle looked at him in astonishment. Count Will's face sank, and he said softly, "Count Longley, you don't know why we decided to do this, do you, or do you plan to abandon your family's position and betray His Royal Highness Prince Eric?"

Count Longli shook his head: "How could I betray His Royal Highness Prince Eric, but I think ...... We don't need to go so far with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, right? The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is obviously the chamber of commerce with the best development momentum in the kingdom, and the magic machine will inevitably become popular, so we don't need to offend the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to death. ”

Count Will snorted coldly: "Count Longli, you are too young after all. For the sake of your recently deceased father, I warn you that there is no possibility of compromise in such matters. Since we have chosen to support His Royal Highness Prince Eric, anyone who supports His Royal Highness Princess Severny is our enemy. Now do this to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, just to give him a warning, and when the time comes, hum ......"

Looking at the chill in Count Will's eyes, Count Longli couldn't help but let out a light sigh in his heart, shook his head, and said no more.

Seeing that Count Longli was silent, Count Will didn't bother to persuade him any more.

In Count Will's opinion, this young man, who had just inherited the hereditary earl title due to his father's death and took over the position of lord of Basaru City, was actually not qualified to sit with himself and Count Michel to discuss such a big matter.

"Count Michelle, I have shown the attitude of our Lemart City to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and it will be your turn to Durekton City next. Count Will said to Count Michel.

Count Michelle's eyes flashed with an imperceptible coldness, and he smiled and nodded: "I know what to do." ”

"Okay, let's put this little thing aside for now, let's get back to business. As we just said about how to distribute the support to the army led by His Royal Highness Prince Eric, we in Lemart City initially plan to support His Royal Highness the Prince's materials worth 300,000 gold coins, and we will add them later depending on the specific situation. What about your cities in Durekton and Basalou?"

Earl Michelle touched the neatly trimmed short beard on his chin, thought for a moment, and responded: "Since you have already decided, Earl Will, then of course our Durekton City cannot be left behind, and we will also provide 300,000 gold coins in supplies." ”

Count Will nodded in satisfaction.

In fact, seriously speaking, Duracton City has always been the richest city in the northeastern province of the Lampari Kingdom, and it has always been much richer than Lemart City.

However, now Count Michel has also only chosen a share of 300,000 gold coins in the initial material support, which can be said to have given him enough face.

In this way, it will also make him Count Will and Lemart City more conspicuous in front of His Royal Highness Prince Eric, which will be extremely beneficial to Count Will.

As for the follow-up investment, it will not be cared about too much.

After asking Count Michelle, Count Will turned to Count Longli again, with a hint of banter in his tone: "What about you, Count Longli?

Count Longli smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Count Will." Don't make fun of me. Our city of Batroux is notoriously poor. How can they afford to produce 300,000 gold coins?"

"How much are you going to make? too little. His Royal Highness Prince Eric can't talk about it. Earl Will narrowed his eyes slightly, and the smile on his face became a little dangerous. "Or do you not plan to support His Royal Highness the Prince's supplies at all, and you plan to betray His Royal Highness?"

Count Longli sighed, looked at the forced gazes of Count Will and Count Michel, thought for a moment, and replied: "We in Batlu City are really powerless, and I think we can only barely come up with about 100,000 gold coins at most. ”

Hearing this answer, Count Will and Count Michel glanced at each other and smiled at the same time.

The two of them, of course, knew the situation in Batroux City. Knowing that this number can be considered the limit of Batru City.

In this way, at least it proves that the Earl of Longley has no disagreement with His Royal Highness Prince Eric for the time being.

Moreover, the 100,000 gold coins were much less than the 300,000 gold coins of the two of them, so that neither the Earl of Longli nor the city of Batlu would leave a good impression on His Royal Highness.

"Well, now that we've decided, we're going to have to act fast. Earl Will said in a deep voice: "According to His Royal Highness's plan, it is very likely that an offensive will be launched as soon as winter is over, and we must send all the supplies to the Zhenbei Army before then. Remember, His Royal Highness the Prince's action this time is of great significance, and there is absolutely no room for error, so we must all be in good spirits. You can't make a mistake in terms of supplies!"

Count Michel responded indifferently, and Count Longli smiled bitterly. It also came down.

After the three of them discussed some details, they ended the meeting of the three city lords.

After the meeting, Count Will asked Count Michelle to have lunch with Count Longley, but was refused by Count Longli on the grounds that he wanted to hurry back to prepare supplies.

Although Count Will was unhappy, he did not keep much of Earl Longley, and after a few perfunctory words, he let him leave directly.

Count Longley, who had left the city of Lemat, got into his private carriage and did not let out a long breath and his expression relaxed until he drove out of the gates of Lemat City.

After lifting the curtain and glancing at the gates of Lemart City behind him, Count Longley frowned deeply.

He didn't like Count Michel's always gloomy appearance, which made people unable to see what he really thought, and he hated Count Will's arrogant and domineering style, if it weren't for his father's long-term relationship with the two of them, Count Longley would not have had much contact with these two people at all.

Moreover, for the support attitude of the two and his father towards His Royal Highness Prince Eric before their deaths, Count Longli actually disagreed with it in his heart.

Why support His Royal Highness Prince Eric to inherit the throne because His Royal Highness Prince Eric is a prince and the first son of His Majesty the King?

In Count Longley's view, who will become king should not be decided by this point at all, but by who can bring better development to the Lampari kingdom after becoming king.

At this point, the Count of Longley was more optimistic about Her Royal Highness the Queen of Sevigny.

As for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, a staunch supporter of Her Royal Highness the Queen of Severny, whom everyone recognizes, Count Longli is actually not the slightest prejudice, but quite favorable.

Before his father died and he took over as the lord of Batru City, he secretly went to Bonta City for half a month of field research out of curiosity.

During his half month in Bang Ta City, he was deeply attracted by all kinds of new things in Bang Ta City, and was deeply impressed by the rapid development of Bang Ta City in recent years.

Through a foreign minister, Count Longli deeply realized that Bonta City can develop from a remote town similar to Batlu City to its current prosperous appearance, and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has played the most important role in it.

After returning from Bonta City, the Earl of Longley had been thinking about a problem in his heart.

If the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is introduced to Batlu City, will Batrou City also achieve such rapid development like Bangta City?

Thinking of this question again now made the look on Count Longley's face extremely struggling.

After a long while, the struggle on his face finally disappeared and finally turned to determination.

After the Count of Longli explained to the coachman, the carriage immediately changed direction, leaving the road outside the city of Lemat and stepping onto a normal dirt road in the same direction as the New Flying Chamber of Commerce's convoy. (To be continued......)
