Chapter 87 Indemnity for Land Cession
"Mr. Karl, are you going to start a raid on this friendly city on the northwest shore of the Great Sea, a friend of the Good God?"
"Hahaha......" Lin Ze raised his head and laughed, perfectly exerting the tenacity of his dragon scales, "Gianna, you can eat as much as you want, but you can't talk nonsense, uncle, I am just here to exercise my reasonable rights as a victor in the war, just now when the old city lord of Trite is extremely uncooperative, I am afraid that these warmongers of Kaishir will fight back to the death, and let the pious disciples of your gods cause greater losses, is there a problem?"
“...... Thank you so much Mr. Carr. Gianna felt that she was still too young, and she didn't know what kind of remarks to refute Lin Ze at this time.
"It's easy to say, it's all small things, it's nothing important. Waving his hand impatiently, Lin Ze returned to the spire and said slowly, "Then Gianna, are you stopping me now to prevent me from obtaining the losses suffered by the Black Dragon Leader in the war through this negotiation method?
"But sir, you ...... now."
"Please shut up, or please tell me what you want to do now?"
The terrifying feeling of the collapse of the mountains and rivers came to her face, and the pale Gianna remembered that she was facing a powerful black dragon that could retreat after the weak divine power of the hard steel Amberi, although he seemed to understand human feelings and was extremely imbecile in political methods, but this could not be the reason why he succumbed to him through verbal confrontation.
"I have no intention of blocking your legal rights, I just hope that you will take a relatively gentle approach to accomplish your purpose. Gianna tried to phrase her words, expressing her opinion as tactfully as possible, "After all, unprovoked war is not the best way for everyone's interests, and there is nothing that cannot be resolved at the negotiating table, right?"
"Heh, then do you think it's a good deal for me to send the Black Dragon Lord's army to completely occupy Kaishir, or is it a good deal for me to simply destroy this Kaishir City now? ”
Several large trading houses managed by the Woking Goddess Church have had a lot of trouble in recent years, especially the Golden Oak Southern Branch in the war-torn countries in the south, taking the family representing Raven as an example, they have had several relatively high-level conflicts with Gianna, the priest sent by the church, and the legendary guardian knight who has been rooted by Gianna's side was also seriously injured in an ambush, according to the calculation of time, he should still be in the recuperation stage now, and he has no spare strength to protect Gianna.
"Okay, is there anyone else who has an objection to me collecting the loot?" The dragon's peculiar lingua franca spread throughout the city under the diffusion of simple psionic energy, and Lin Ze didn't care about Gianna's shouting below after shouting, but quietly closed his eyes and communicated with Old Trete's eldest son, the Jamie Lowry who was distraught in the illusion, through the ability of the spirit seed, and didn't know how to give up the tax on the Black Dragon Lord's goods and the Black Dragon Lord's salt paper franchise in Kaishir plus "a little bit" The terms of the war reparations could not be accepted by this future Lord of Keshir.
The aura of several spellcasters active in Kaishir City gradually declined, obviously agreeing with Lin Ze's statement, although they and the forces behind them also wanted to get involved in this feast to carve up Kaishir City, but the time was obviously not this time.
Gently brushing Gianna away, Lin Ze waved his hand and released an overclocking shock at the corner of the wall, "What I need now is an obedient, careless City Lord of Kaishir, do you understand what I mean?"
"Alright, my little city lord Jemiry, you can come out now, if you don't have any eldest brother who suddenly pops up on a study trip, you can now proudly call yourself the true master of this prosperous city. ”
"Gemie?"
Gianna frowned, and in a moment she saw the pale-faced eldest son of Trit staggering out of the castle.
Their position at the moment is on the huge top roof of the Bluestone Castle, next to the iconic spire of the Bluestone Castle, the area here is not very large, Lin Ze squatted again, and there was even less open space left, his face was pale, and he was sweating profusely before he knelt down at the feet of the black dragon and kissed Lin Ze's toes reverently, "Please forgive my father's mistakes, his selfish interests should not be the reason for a wise lord to vent his anger." ”
Gianna couldn't believe that the person in front of her, kneeling on the ground with a wet back, could be the young knight she knew, and she had communicated with this young knight who believed in the Lord of Dawn during her time in Caishr City with Raven, whether it was the usual impression that Jamie gave her, or the normal impression that the Lord of Dawn believers gave to others, it should not be like this.
Had he turned his back on the faith?
"It's easy to say, hey, you get up and say, it's just a simple war reparation, I'm quite friendly. Lin Ze squinted his eyes and quietly pulled out his left front paw.
- Did you scare yourself too much?
"Excuse me?" said Jamie, standing up and half-bowing, letting the dead body on the wall beside him be his father.
"Not very demanding. Lin Ze snapped his fingers and said, "First, return the property belonging to the Black Dragon Collar and compensate double the fruits." ”
"Second, let go of the taxes on the Black Dragon Territory, and someone will come to you to discuss the specific matters. "This kind of thing cannot be unilaterally raised, and it is necessary to properly give the authorities a little leftovers to make them bear the grievances of the people for their own caretakers.
"Thirdly, the Black Dragon Collar needs to monopolize the salt paper of Kaishi City, we can provide Kaishi with a complete set of production processes to improve your technical level, and the production factory of the Black Dragon Collar can also be established in Kaishir, but only the salt and paper of the Black Dragon Collar can be left in the market of Kaishir. Lin Ze watched with interest as Jamie was there to show his face, and said, "Then the fourth is quite simple, take out 10,000 gold coins and I'll try what it's like to use these shiny things to make a bed." ”
After listening to the four fatal conditions, Jamie swallowed hard, and almost struggled to say a few words, "I don't have any problems, it's all up to you." ”
"What about the other great nobles of Kaishir?" As a complete independent city, although the upper sparrow called by Kaishir is small, a set of fixed teams to deal with government affairs is still complete, and these great nobles who followed the ancestors of the original Rory family to open up the territory also have a certain influence in Kaishir.
"I will do my best to convince them, and I ask you to give the people of Kehir a certain amount of time and opportunity. Jamiry didn't know what was going on again, and his forehead became wet and sweaty again.
"It's okay, it's okay, since you're going to do business with our Black Dragon Leader, our service as a partner is still very good, you host for a few days, and someone will come to help you then...... Forget it, someone will look for you for specific things, Amberi is here again, you can think about how to solve the huge storm you encountered on your first day in office. Lin Ze woke up everyone in the Bluestone Castle to flap their wings and fly outside the city. 、
Standing at the top of the bluestone fort and looking at the shore, there was a huge wave rolling in with the pressing black clouds......
