Chapter 449: Lifeline
Walk into the Baishan City Administration Hall. [Full text reading] everyone has also introduced each other, and Anthony and Marino, two old acquaintances, are the most evocative, and they looked at each other for a long time. Suddenly laughed out loud, the palms of the two hands slammed together, and everything that had passed turned into smoke in the laughter.
Sit back for a moment. Anthony and Marino excused themselves and left the conference room together. Seeing this group of young people represented by An Fei, they couldn't help but have the feeling that the years have gone by without looking back, and it is undeniable that these young people already have the power to change the pattern of the mercenary country. Well in the future. These young people are becoming more and more experienced, more and more powerful, and more and more accumulated, and these young people have the power to change the world pattern. And I'm really old!
Bravi and the others knew Alice's resolute style and knew that she would soon get to the point. Anthony and Marino left the conference room after him, except for Alice. Only Anfei, Christing, and Suzanne were left as leaders, and the other three were archons, and of course all the tedious matters had to be handled by them personally.
"Look at your looks...... This time it's a big deal, right?" As one might expect. Alice really couldn't wait to get to the point, in fact, her own family knew about the white family. Alice has to put herself into her work. in order to relieve their own geocentric. Feeling.
"Well, a total of 120,000 gold coins. That's 20,000 more than you expected. Christine smiled and said, "How's it going? Alice." You should be satisfied, right?"
"Exactly 120,000 gold coins?"
"Yes. Suzanne continued.
"That's weird. Alice thought for a moment and looked at An Fei: "You can't have scavenged from the merchants, right?"
"How do you know?" Suzanne had some to eat. Frightened.
Of course she knew. Exactly 120,000 gold coins. If it's not much, it's not much, if it's a lot of loot, maybe there's not even a fraction of it?" An Fei said with a smile.
"Alice, there's something wrong with the word scavenging. Chrissian explained softly: "We didn't use any coercion. It was the merchants who took the initiative to support us. "Finished. Chris described the scene of the merchants rushing to be the first to do so. His description is vivid. Suzanne burst out laughing without seeing the scene.
"You also wrote an IOU?!" Alice asked in surprise.
"Ah......" An Fei was stunned: "If you don't write an IOU, isn't it Cheng Ming who robbed it?!" Alice. You don't have to be nervous. They all had a good attitude, and the IOU was to be repaid over twenty years. There is no interest, as long as we take down Blackwater City, the entire mercenary country will be in our hands, hehe...... Not to mention 120,000 gold coins. Even if it's 1.2 million gold coins. I can ...... without any problems."
"Do you know what profit maximization is?" Alice interrupted Anfei: "Anfei, I'm not in any way targeting you. Chrissy and Suzanne don't understand. It's excusable, but you shouldn't be ignorant!"
Alice's tone was very heavy, and An Fei and the three of them were stunned, and Suzanne was afraid that An Fei would be angry. He also stabbed An Fly in the arm.
But Susanna's worries are unnecessary. Amphi's other advantages are not as calm and rational as him. Have the courage to recognize mistakes and have the courage to correct them, as long as Alice is for the good of everyone, no matter how heavy her tone is, she can accept it, not to mention that people are constantly learning lessons and experiences from their mistakes. to be able to progress.
"Alice. What do you mean......" Anfei asked softly, he was really not angry. Instead, he reflected on what was wrong with him, which made Alice so excited.
"I'm sorry. Alice smiled wryly. Because of jealousy in the heart. She was a little out of control just now. But she immediately noticed her unusual tone, and then relaxed: "Let me explain it this way. In fact, the court and the shopping mall are bloody battlefields, and maximizing profits is the goal pursued by everyone! Amphi. What are you looking for when you're dueling people? What are you looking for in a duel where you can inflict the least damage and bring the most lethal attack to your enemies. Strive to end the battle in the shortest possible time. Let all the enemies of the land feel the strongest fear. Isn't that so?"
An Fei nodded slowly. Alice was basically not wrong in what she said.
"It's also a kind of profit maximization!" Alice said slowly, "Those merchants are rushing to sign a magical pact with you. It proves that they have a lot of room for retreat, which means that you want far less than they planned to pay, so they will rush to be the first!"
"Alice, you mean...... We've been fooled?" Chris Ling looked puzzled: "But we have already received the gold coins!"
Suzanne also found it incomprehensible to sign several magical pact. Obtained 120,000 gold coins. Nothing is lost. You can't talk about being fooled!
"We could have gained more. Lost the land that deserved. That's fooling!" Alice added again: "Merchants are the most calculating, and in this respect none of us can compare with merchants. ”
There was a pause. Alice continued, "For example, this time they only paid 120,000 gold coins to move you. Hehe...... Our major leagues are too worthless! Ampai's 120,000 gold coins are a huge fortune for any of us, but for our major leagues. Believe it or not, I can spend all this money in two days?"
An Fei rubbed his nose. One tilt. It happened to collide with Chris's gaze. An Fei said with a solemn face: "Chrisling, you learn from Alice well, and sooner or later you will be able to use the ground!"
Chris couldn't laugh or cry. Turned his head and ignored An Fei.
Alice rolled her eyes, "Can you be serious?!" I thought you were all looking long-term, and who knew that even those merchants couldn't compare. ”
An Fei coughed dryly. Be serious. Chrissian and Suzanne also restrained their smiles.
"If we control the country of mercenaries, we are equivalent to controlling the flow of magic crystals on the continent, and we are also controlling the lifeblood of the entire continent!"
"Wait a minute. Alice!" An Fei wanted to listen carefully to Alice's analysis, but now he had to interrupt Alice's words: "It's not us who control the lifeblood of the continent. Do you understand?!"
"Now that Chris is here, I'm going to talk about it. Is that okay?" Alice's gaze fell on Chris.
"Huh...... Alice has nothing to say. Chrissie smiled.
"Alice, don't say any more, we trust your judgment. An Fei once again blocked Alice's words: "Now we have to talk about it." Is there any way you can make up for our losses?" In fact, An Fei still didn't understand the local knowledge. But he knew he couldn't let Alice go on! Alice has also been accepted by everyone. But Alice had to get permission from Chrissy before she could make a judgment. One can imagine how amazing her words were, and it would certainly involve Yoland, and it was very likely that he would commit a big taboo to stop Alice from speaking. It's for Alice's good.
Alice is ice and snow smart. After being stunned for a moment, he reacted that he was out of control again, thinking about the past few days. It seems that since learning that An Fei killed the archmage Mike. Her mood has never been calm, because she missed a man who is most worthy of her life, a strong man who will stand on the top of the world, self-pity, jealousy and other negative emotions are affecting her all the time, so she has not dared to look at Susanna, for fear that she will show her feet and let An Fei perceive something. And elsewhere. She ignored.
Chris shrugged his shoulders and breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he was more nervous than An Fei just now, and as an imperial prince, it is his unshirkable responsibility to maintain the dignity of the royal family. If Alice really said something taboo. He had to be reprimanded. And doing so will hurt everyone's unity, but it's not appropriate to let Alice speak, he's in a dilemma.
An Fei is the supreme leader of the Grand Alliance, responsible for coordinating the overall situation, appointing and dismissing subordinates, and fighting foreign wars. Alice is in charge of political affairs, big and small. And he is a distinguished person, responsible for coordinating the relations between the regiments. Anyone who says what he says has to give some face, although the distribution of power between the three is not very clear. But the central triangle has already taken shape. Chris is acutely aware that this distribution is the most reasonable. It is also the most stable that destroys the relationship between the three people. It's tantamount to destroying their future!
"I'll think about it......" Alice frowned and thought for a long time.
"I have a solution. I don't know if it's okay. Although An Fei doesn't understand business things very well, his mind has always been very flexible to think of a person, and at the same time, he also thought of a way to give people a medicine, but his method is a little passive, and he can only wait for those businessmen to show their own conscience, so he doesn't have much confidence.
"Tell me about it. Alice looked up.
"I know a merchant who is the owner of the Yunhai Merchant Group. It's called Al Langga. That guy is very obedient. But now he's out to buy food. When he returns, I will ask him to donate some gold coins to us in public, but ......" An Fei hesitated: "Isn't the donation too much? How can you donate for no reason?!"
"Don't overdo it! Alice's eyes lit up, "When will he come back?"
"It's coming. It's just a few days. ”
"Where does he go to buy food? whether it's to the Mao Empire or the Alisen Empire. It will take a month or two at the earliest!"
"I had already guessed that there must be a shortage of food in the city. So I told Erlanga to find the Death Roar Legion or the Shield of Light. Take my token and make direct contact with Marshal Beerry. ”
"Reselling military rations is a big crime!" Alice laughed, "But...... I'm going to take it back. You're still very far-sighted. ”
"Forget it. An Fei replied angrily.
