"Of course not. Seeing that Leo seemed to have misunderstood what he meant, Frank Forson immediately explained: "I know about Jason, he has a lot of talent, and he was already on the training list at the regular meeting before coming here......"

"Wait, don't you think the conditions you offer are a bit strange?" Leo interrupted Frank Fussen's words and chuckled, "Jason seems to have been trained to serve your special bureau, but you use this as a condition for trading with me, it's like using my things to train talents for you, and I don't seem to see any benefit." ”

"At least you will be able to get some reliable friends. Frank Fussen flashed a look of embarrassment, coughed dryly, and said.

Frank Forson's mood is extremely embarrassed now, even if he had expected such a situation in advance, but when the time came, after being questioned like this by Leo, he still had a feeling of wanting to find a crack to get into, and in addition to embarrassment, he was more resentful of the guy who came up with such a bad idea.

Although Frank Forson is the director of the Special Bureau, and it seems that he has a lot of power, in fact his power is limited to a combat squad under his command, because the authority of the Special Bureau is so great that the Congress has set up some branches within the Special Bureau in order to prevent the Special Bureau from becoming a dominant party.

These branches are not subordinate to the Director of the Special Bureau, but to the National Assembly, so that the powers of the Director of the Special Bureau are greatly weakened, and sometimes they are not as good as the head of a branch department, and in general the Director of the Special Bureau is more like a mascot that can act as a deterrent.

After learning about Leo's strength from various sources, the participants in the internal meeting at the top of the Special Bureau agreed that Leo should not be in conflict with him, but should be co-opted by Leo.

This decision was not only based on Leo's own strength, but more importantly, Leo's innocent net worth and status as a retired soldier made everyone present at the time think that Leo was a patriot and worth paying some price to woo.

However, in the subsequent discussion with Leo about the terms of the potion deal, the participants in the meeting became different.

Among them, those who are loyal to the royal family feel that Leo should be loyal to the royal family from Leo's past behavior, after all, even the Poseidon Scepter was recovered by him, so if Leo can successfully become a collaborator of the Special Bureau, then it can also increase the influence of the royal faction within the Special Bureau in disguise, so their proposal is to give Leo extremely lucrative trading conditions.

And after seeing the proposal of the royal faction, the people of the Congressional faction naturally thought of the other party's plan, just like the speculation in the hearts of the royal faction, the congressional faction also felt that Leo seemed to be closer to the royal family. Although they are also very interested in the wizard potion that Leo has refined, they also don't want Leo to really become a collaborator of the Special Bureau, because then most of the people who have been healed by the wizard potion will be grateful to Leo and switch sides.

Therefore, when discussing the terms of the trade, the King's faction tried their best to obstruct this matter, taking advantage of the superiority of the King's faction, on the grounds of financial constraints, to erase the original trading conditions little by little, if it were not for the previous meeting that the resolution that must be traded to the wizard potion had been passed, maybe they would have removed Leo from the list of collaborators.

In this way, when the task of negotiating a potion deal with Leo fell into the hands of Frank Fusson, the bottom line of the above conditions was already pitiful, not to mention Leo, even when Frank Fuson saw this condition for the first time, he thought it was nonsense at all.

It's a pity that this kind of nonsense trading conditions were actually approved at the meeting, and if it weren't for the fact that there was no other more suitable negotiator within the Special Bureau, Frank Forson would probably have turned around and left at that time, and it was his sense of responsibility that made him fall into an embarrassing situation now.

Leo couldn't help but feel the urge to laugh when he saw Frank Fossen say such absurd conditions so boldly, because he also saw that Frank Foson was saying these words head-on, which was certainly not his intention, and he could also infer that the power struggle within the Special Bureau had reached the bottom of the ridiculous.

So, instead of asking Frank Forson again, he turned to the old wizard and asked, "Do you think I should accept such a condition from the Special Bureau?"

"Acceptable. The old wizard gave a surprise answer, which surprised not only Leo, but also Frank Fussen, and looked at the old wizard suspiciously, wondering why the other party would speak for him.

However, it soon became clear to the two of them that the old wizard was not helping the Special Bureau at all, or rather not helping the Special Bureau's congressional faction, only to hear him continue: "You can actually buy the potion to the Special Bureau's Supervision Department, I believe they should be willing to pay enough......"

"No!" Before the old wizard could finish speaking, Frank Fussen immediately interrupted the old wizard's next words, and glared at the old wizard fiercely, he didn't want his efforts to benefit the royal family in the end.

Although as the director of the Special Bureau, he has always stood on the neutral side and never intervened in any internal battles within the Special Bureau, but he knows very well that with the return of the Poseidon Scepter to the royal family, the prestige of the royal family has increased day by day, and according to this trend, the royal family's influence in the Special Bureau may soon exceed that of Congress, and many things he does not want to see may happen at that time, so he must avoid a situation that upsets the balance within the Special Bureau, which is why he agreed to negotiate a potion deal with Leo。

It's just that after stopping the old wizard, Frank Fuson is in a difficult situation again, because he can't come up with exciting conditions to convince Leo to sell wizard potions to the Special Bureau.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the room became a little awkward.

Soon, however, as if thinking of something, Frank Forson said, "I have something that Your Excellency may be interested in as a trade item. ”

"What item?" Leo seemed to have been waiting for Frank Fuson's words for a long time, and immediately responded.

In fact, Leo had already thought about selling wizard healing potions to the Special Bureau before this, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity.

With Leo's continuous accumulation of wizarding knowledge, he was also able to refine various wizard potions, and his alchemy ability also responded to the rapid improvement, and he was able to refine potions like wizard healing potions very easily.

It's just that, in order to avoid disrupting the market and causing the price of wizard healing potions to drop, he did not sell all the refined wizard healing potions to the black market, but only sold a small part, only five or six bottles at a time, and the rest of the twenty or so bottles were collected by himself.

After months of accumulation, Leo had hundreds of bottles of wizard healing potions on hand, a small number of which were kept in the safe of the apartment, and the rest were kept in the storage space, which Leo carried with him so that he could use them when he needed them.

However, Leo has recently discovered that as his strength begins to increase, there are very few places where he can use wizard potions, and because of the increase in his life level, wizard potions are no longer very effective in him.

For this reason, Leo also had the idea of selling this batch of wizard healing potions, and the best buyers in the English Kingdom, in addition to the black market, naturally only had the Special Bureau and the royal family, so the potion deal negotiated with Frank Fussen and Otto Wizard now was exactly what he wanted.

Although judging from the performance of the royal family, it is no longer a big deal to make a deal with the royal family, but it is not in his interest to sell the potion only to the royal family, and he also needs a rival of the royal family to appear, which is why he has the conversation with Frank Forson now.

However, Leo expects that the special bureau will come up with something that is not just money, but something of other value.

The Special Bureau of the Kingdom of England was established very early, initially by a few court knights, and has since developed to become a third force outside the royal family and parliament.

Over the years, the Special Bureau must have collected a large number of special items, and Leo is very interested in these items, so even if Frank Foson has just made a good offer, as long as there is nothing he wants in the conditions, then he will also choose to leave Frank Foson aside.

"From what we know about your investigation, we find that your Excellency seems to be very interested in knowledge," Frank Forson was extremely confident, feeling that it would not be difficult for him to convince Leo, so he bluntly told them about their investigation and surveillance, and then continued: "I believe that Your Excellency must be interested in this item, I wonder if Your Excellency has heard of the god Eternal Wisdom?"

Hearing Frank Fuson's words, Leo couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, because it was too coincidental that he and Bailu talked about the fallen god of eternal wisdom during the day, but at night someone actually mentioned this god, which made Leo wonder if this was secretly arranged by Bailu.

Frank Fussen did not know what Leo was thinking, and when he saw that Leo had not asked for a long time, he understood that Leo already knew about the existence of this ancient god, so he continued, "According to legend, the eternal wisdom of this god has all the knowledge of the world, and this knowledge involves the deepest mysteries of the world. ”

"Do you have a way for me to get this wisdom?" asked Leo with interest.

"Of course not, there is no one in the world who can withstand the knowledge of eternal wisdom, and there is no way for me to transfer the wisdom of a god to you. Frank Forson shook his head, but after a moment's notice, he added, "However, I can give you some knowledge of eternal wisdom. ”

Before Leo could ask what the other party could do to obtain some of the knowledge of eternal wisdom, the old wizard on the side said with some surprise: "Frank, you are too bold, even if you are the director of the special bureau, you have no right to use that thing." ”

"Yes, I don't have the right to use it," Frank Forson nodded, acknowledging the old wizard's claim, but added, "But don't forget, according to my past exploits, I should have a chance to use it, and I can transfer this opportunity to Lord Leo." ”

The old wizard shook his head and said, "This can't be, there is no precedent, and neither Congress nor the royal family will agree to it." ”

"No, there's a precedent for that, don't forget to be a clever mouthpiece. Frank Fussen retorted and reminded the old wizard.

Hearing this, Leo already vaguely understood what Frank Forson was mentioning, after all, the story of Peter Clever Mouth in the Kingdom of England has long been a household name and has become a must-have bedside book for every family.

In this story, Peter is just a stammering and stupid groom at first, but by chance, he saves the life of the palace minister at that time, who wants to repay him and asks him what he wants to get paid, and he answers that he hopes to stop stuttering and become smarter.

After learning of Peter's wish, the palace minister decided to give up a chance to meet the gods and get the revelation of the gods to Peter Qiaozui, so Peter got this opportunity, successfully met the gods, and under the influence of the gods' revelations, he became the smartest person in the Kingdom of England, and the most eloquent person.

If the story comes here, it can barely be regarded as a small story of good retribution and evil retribution, but in fact, the story does not end. After Peter became smarter, he was able to easily discover some secrets from other people's conversations, and after he discovered these secrets, he could not keep them, but told them in order to show that he had a clever mouth that could speak.

At first, these secrets were just private secrets between servants and maids, but then he revealed more and more secrets, and the identities of those involved became more and more high, and in the end, even the king was involved.

And the result of the matter was naturally that before Peter discovered and revealed more secret things, the king ordered him to be executed, and the person who carried out the execution order happened to be the palace minister who Peter Qiaozui saved back then.

At the end of the story, Miyasho asks Peter what other wishes he has, and Pier tells Miyako that he wants to change back into the stupid and stammering groom he had at the beginning.

Leo had always thought it was just a fable, but now through the conversation between the two, Leo discovers that the story may be true, and that the revelation of the gods in the story that makes Peter clever and eloquent should be part of the wisdom of Frank Fussen's eternal wisdom.

Frank Forson said at this time: "The Special Bureau has inadvertently obtained an artifact of eternal wisdom, as long as you touch this artifact, you can obtain divine inspiration, and the amount of divine inspiration obtained depends on each person's own ability. Some can be as smart as Peter Clever Mouth, while others may not get anything. ”
