Thorin, the third-level censor of the Dwarven Nation of Ortunno, is reading "New Age Soldiers" with relish, and even reading it when it is wonderful.

"The combat effectiveness of the army is based on the whole, why can a soldier easily defeat an equal number of thieves. Not only in training, but also in equipment. Rather, it is that the military is more organized than the thieves.

How to ensure organization, command. Only an order that can be carried out from top to bottom is the embodiment of organization. Therefore, it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders. ”

This is the third time Thorin has read this book, and although the words on it are awkward, he can understand it a few more times.

Thorin gives a completely different impression, despite the rugged appearance of a dwarf, but he is able to perform very standard rune aristocratic etiquette. This also made Wayne a little embarrassed when he saw him for the first time, after all, a rough dwarf is better than himself.

The most important thing is that Thorin loves to read, unlike the legendary dwarves who only fight and kill savagely. I bought a lot of books almost all the way over, as long as I didn't have them. It is estimated that compared to the depth of knowledge, even Rune's bachelor is ashamed of himself.

And it is also very cunning, as soon as I came to Nolan and saw the cement road, the cement house felt that Nolan was different. In a hurry, he sent people to taverns, brothels and other places to inquire about Nolan's situation.

This information was summed up in Thorin, and Sorin could only shudder. Thorin is also a first-class person in Ortuno, he has never seen anything in the world, but when he arrives in Nolan, he feels like a frog at the bottom of a well.

There will be people who will spread knowledge to the common people, and will tidy up the streets of the common people....

Thorin felt that compared to the hypocrisy of the church, Wayne was the true gospel of the common people. But he never understood the meaning of doing this, he really didn't understand.

At this time, a guest came to visit, and Thorin tidied up his clothes and hurried to meet him.

"Pastor Merris. ”

Thorin clasped his hands together and drew a circle.

Merris returned the salute in return.

The two of them sat in a room of about twenty square meters, not feeling the slightest anger at the hastily decorated clumsy artwork.

Thorin said directly.

"The artillery you bought earlier, what Wayne said. ”

Merris said lightly.

"At the beginning, Master Wayne said that it was a discount, four thousand and one door, but now it is only one thousand. Young Master Wayne couldn't say anything, and promised to compensate us with 20,000 gold coins. He also instructed us to sign that contract in the future, saying that if there was still such a situation, we would be able to get more compensation. ”

Thorin laughed.

"It's not good, five guns for nothing. ”

Merris said angrily.

"Lord Thorin, please don't make such jokes. ”

Thorin hurriedly apologized.

It was indeed Merris who lost, if it was a thousand gold coins and a cannon at that time. Merris will be able to get twenty doors, not counting the freight.

What's more, there is no need to do this, and it will take several years before the artillery is delivered. At this juncture, whoever can have artillery first will be safer. And the tensions have been even more so recently. It's all a business of millions, who cares about the one or two thousand! Basically, except for the elves, the other parties want to get the artillery as soon as possible.

"How's your progress?"

Thorin asked with concern.

"Master Wayne said it would all be delivered in three years"

Merris sighed.

"It's all three years, and then it's up to whoever gets the first batch of more guns. ”

"I hope Master Wayne won't be doing the auction, after all, it's not good for him. ”

"That's for sure, on the way back, the four princes of Rune are said to have imitated the artillery, but they are not yet mature. If the auction price of the artillery is too high, no one will buy it. ”

Merris narrowed her eyes.

"Lord Thorin, you Ortuno are not just here to buy artillery. ”

Thorin pondered for a moment.

"We're half allies, I'll tell you. For now, even in the imperial capital, it is difficult to find someone whose forging skills surpass those of the dwarves. For example, if we look at an artillery, we can make a similar mold. But we need detailed process steps, and that's the key. ”

Merris said.

"Does the fourth prince have a lot of information from time to time, you can ask him. ”

"That guy actually wants us to support him in the struggle for imperial power, this is not a matter of lip service, Rune will hold grudges, and it is said that the emperor is especially so. ”

"So what have you found lately? ”

"Aside from the crafts that have long been explored by spies, there is really not much progress. ”

"So what are you going to do next? ”

Thorin immediately began to play dumbfounded, staring blankly at the foam floating on the coffee.

Merris also sensed that he was abrupt.

"Recently we have gone out of our way to visit the homes of many Nolan officials, and some of them have even thrown themselves into the arms of the Father. ”

"But it doesn't seem like that's helping you to get more artillery. ”

"Then spread more faith to the Father. ”

Thorin cursed in his heart, he was so dark that he had to smear himself.

As for Thorin, he didn't know what this group of god-like people wanted to do.

Thorin felt a little thirsty and wanted to reach for his coffee, but couldn't reach it due to his short stature. Merris picked up the coffee and handed it over.

Thorin smiled kindly, and Merris nodded slightly.

One is not ashamed of his short stature, and the other is not ashamed of being a servant.

Both of these people have a sense of self-confidence, which comes from the difference between their own IQ, thoughts, and vision, rather than the self-confidence of being high up and serving others, and the self-confidence of status.

Wayne is also quite brain-distressed, these people come to buy artillery, and each cunning one is not like talking. The most brain-draining thing to do every day is not to write a book, but to talk to this group of people.

Fortunately, the initiative is in your own hands, so you won't be led by others.

As for all the messy tricks, Wayne didn't think he could play with such a shrewd man at the same time.

I adhere to a principle, three years to complete the delivery, every six months. 10% of the total number of first deliveries, and then increase in turn.

I can make a little favor, but the bottom line is there, no matter what the person says. Just find a way to refuse yourself, this is the advantage of having the initiative.

As for what tricks they want to play, what kind of bribes officials, inquire about intelligence, etc., Wayne can solve it with one word. Heath and Evans are not eating dry food, and Hinderson is still sitting in Wasser.

These days, the elves are the most trouble-free. After that Hui Li Sha negotiated, he looked at other opportunities in Nolan, bought books, did business, and did it all. That's what Wayne wants.

As for the others, they are basically mainly playing politics, but politics is played when there is not much difference in the strength of the two sides. After a few years, Wayne will only need to take care of the internal politics.

It can only be said that these people are very smart, and they think that Wayne is an era of bright stars, and there are many heroes from all walks of life. It's a pity that what they lack is vision and technology that are ahead of the times.
