"Father, the Sea Clan deal with the Shark Tribe is going very well now, and they have reached an agreement with the Sea Giant Tribe, one of the three major tribes of the Sea of Death, that the coast of the Sea of Death will belong to the Shark Tribe in the future. At the same time, the Shark Tribe has already defeated another large wave of tribes before, and the final encirclement and suppression are being prepared in front of them, which is why I support their weapons and equipment!"

"Once the battle of the Shark Tribe is successful, then in the future, the fleet of our Duchy of Berry will be able to flow unimpeded along the entire coastline of the Sea of Death! This is not just the internal trade of the French Empire, this means that we can bypass the obstacles of the central region of the empire and the Valley of the Monsters, and trade with several major empires in the south by sea, and then the income of the Duchy of Berry will be amazingly increased!"

Teucer told his idea, in fact, this is also the inspiration he got from Duke's plan, if Stormcastle can develop a trade route to the Sea of Death, then why can't Maple Leaf City?

And as long as you seize the opportunity, once you occupy the maritime trade of the Duchy of Berry, then it can be determined that the importance of Maple Leaf City will increase in the territory of the Duchy of Berry, and even become the most important lord in the Duchy of Berry.

Not only is the Duchy of Berry the most important, but Traucer can also take this opportunity to make an agreement with the other lords of the Duchy of Berry. There is a general rule in any world, whoever controls the financial power, then who has the final say. Once the maritime trade of the other lords of the Principality of Berry is controlled by Teucer, then no matter how good the eldest brother Baker is, he will not be able to compete with him in the end.

Thinking of this, Teucer even looked at the big brother Baker opposite. But Baker sat there as usual, expressionless, as if he had no interest in what Teucer had said.

I don't know why, every time I see Beck's attitude, I feel very angry, because this is a feeling that I am being ignored, and even has a feeling that Baker does not regard himself as a competitor at all, and in the face of his own active competition, Baker always looks like he doesn't care.

People are like this sometimes, when all your efforts are to defeat the opponent, only to find that the opponent does not take you in the eyes at all, but as a small shrimp, such a blow to self-esteem is even more difficult to accept than losing to the opponent, because from beginning to end, the opponent looks down on you!

Teucer was focused on Baker, while Duke Otto was contemplating what Teucer had just said. It is true that the Duchy of Berry is now in a very difficult stage, after all, the war line is within the territory of the territory, and the entire north is now full of devastation, if it were not for such a critical moment, Duke Otto would not want to take the risk of taking the initiative to attack the barbarians.

After all, theoretically speaking, the French Empire is still on the weak side, and attacking a strong enemy on the opponent's home field with weakness is undoubtedly a suicidal act under normal circumstances. More importantly, as the strength of the Duchy of Berry declines, the pressure on the side of the Emperor Fran will increase, and once the forces of the two sides are no longer balanced, the real destruction of the Duchy of Berry may come.

In fact, Duke Otto saw the current situation very clearly, and officially because he saw it too clearly, he has not made a decision to punish Torke so far. If it were when he was young, this kind of behavior of dumping the air force depot without permission could be directly executed by military law, no matter what kind of reason and hardship!

Maintaining a balance is the most important thing, Duke Otto has no objection, but he must maintain the strength of the Duchy of Berry and the Lion Army. No matter how dissatisfied he is now, things have already happened, and he can only deal with them according to Teucer's method.

"Teucer, while I can understand your kindness to the Duchy of Berry, you have violated the laws of the Lion Army by doing so. But now is an emergency, I won't punish you for the time being, and I'll see what you end up with before making a decision. ”

As soon as he heard Duke Otto's tone soften, Teucer's face was full of surprised smiles, and then he replied to Duke Otto firmly: "Father, the shipyard in Maple Leaf City has actually been under construction for nearly a year, as long as you give me some time, our own merchant ships will soon be able to go to sea." Father, don't worry, I promise to increase the income of the Principality of Berry by at least a few hundred thousand gold coins a year!"

The income of hundreds of thousands of gold coins is a lot of money for a territory, even a principality. And this is only the beginning, as long as the sea trade route can be opened, open up the sweater line with the major empires in the south, or even find a trade route from the periphery to the Mediterranean, then these hundreds of thousands of gold coins are just the beginning, and in the end, millions of gold coins may not be enough.

So when Teucer told the number, voices of approval began to appear in the tent, compared to the loud slogans and ethereal honors, which were all veterans, and the interests of the real Principality of Berry were the most important.

Even Baker, who had not expressed an opinion before, looked at him after hearing the words that Teucer had been preparing for nearly a year. He didn't expect that Teucer's plan was so far-reaching, which made him feel a real threat.

With Baker's IQ, it is impossible for him not to know all the means used by Teucer, but he is disdainful of these methods of Teucer, because Baker is more like the Duke of Otto when he was young, not pursuing "art", but pursuing "power", he believes that power and strength are everything, and all power and trickery are just jokes in the face of absolute strength.

It's not that Baker doesn't care about this duke's position, but this guy is too confident and thinks that his strength will definitely be able to achieve the duke's position in the future. So those little tricks of Teuca, Baker didn't want to see and didn't pay attention to them. But what Teucer showed just now was no longer a small trick used to please his father before, but a real trick of scheming, so Baker had to pay attention to it!

Just as Baker was thinking about how to deal with it, he saw that the curtain of the manager's tent was lifted. The sudden light that came in attracted Baker's attention, but he was even more curious that the military council of Duke Otto's tent dared to break in so directly?

When he looked towards the door, he was surprised to find that Duke was standing in the doorway, and Duke was looking at them with a playful smile on his face, without the slightest timidity when facing his father.
