The municipality is none of Bran's business, and Bran waits quietly for Albert to finish.
After Albert finished talking, he turned to Brandau, "Friend, you are in Rome, do you know the dispute between the northern borders?"
Bran was tired of hearing about the North.
"I don't know too much, there are a lot of things going on with the Knights." Bran pretended not to understand.
"Tell me about it."
Go'ou got up after being called and asked to deliver a new map.
It is a miniature topographic map of the North Sea and the British Isles.
"Excellencies, according to the information brought back by ships destined for the North Sea, the former king of Norway, Curie (Blood Axe), who had been expelled earlier, had appeared in Scotland and was welcomed as a guest by William the Conqueror, who had gathered a number of Viking immigrants to form a fleet.
The current king of Norway, Nurenen (beard), is expected to react soon, and the intelligence judges that there is a very good chance of forming an alliance with England...... England was at a disadvantage in terms of strength, but the Viking Orders of the Eumes in Denmark, under the command of Nurenen, were unpredictable......
The slightly more powerful monarchs on the mainland are very concerned about the war in the distance, and will not say that they stay out of the matter and let the power develop.
Florence, for example, has a lot of raw material transactions with the North Sea (the most wool), and who is the overlord of the North is in their own interests.
Moreover, sending troops to help the victorious side will be very rewarding.
Ireland, Scotland, and some Vikings, and the help of the Franks, against England, Norway, Florence, and a small part of the Holy See - Cardinal Heywood intended to send a few hundred men north to help.
Bran calculated that the battle would be fought.
"How many men are you going to send?" Bran asked Albert.
"The first wave started with 800 men and 10 transports. Bran, do you want to lead the team?" Albert's proposal was both joking and true.
"I'm inexperienced." Bran shook his head in decline, and Albert didn't care, but two of his men asked Bran new questions.
"Your Excellency, the paper and printing technology that you have been selling lately have brought a lot of customs revenue to Florence, and as a councillor of the city, I would like to discuss with you whether it is possible to hand over this technology to the city, and of course, you will be able to reap fifty percent of the benefits every year after expanding your business."
"After handing over to the city, the paper raw materials can also be guaranteed by the duke, and cooperation can expand profits." Another MP helped.
All of a sudden, everyone's eyes came to him.
"May I think about it," Brandau.
"Of course, my friend, and I hope that together we will build a mighty city that will not fall, and the goods of the whole Mediterranean, the North Sea, and the Venetian Sea will be imported into Meath, when we will be able to eat Egyptian millet in the morning, Tunisian rum at noon, and purple silk from Junbao in the evening." Albert shouted this sentence ambitiously.
"Cheers to the City That Never Falls." Duke Never raised his glass.
Before coming here, Bran had already communicated with Albert, but he didn't expect it......
Bran raised his glass as well, his mouth full of bitterness.
After a while, when it was time to eat, the map was taken away, and the servant began to serve the food.
The staple food is crabs, transported from the open sea, which have recently become popular among the nobility.
Bran had no appetite, added too much spice, ate a few bites symbolically, and choked on a sentence.
"Lord Bran, I heard that a traitor knight has escaped to you?"
It was Chucken's voice, and Bran's intervention was immediately sent back by the messenger.
Chuken is also about the same age as Jack's brother-in-law Alan, and in two years, Alan will be by Bran's side as a cronie.
But the status is different, and the answer should be cautious.
"Yes, Lord Chucken, according to the practice of the faithful in the past, when a knight fights valiantly, and his master dies, he should not be pursued, but may choose to recruit or forgive."
Chuken was not a good person, Bran replied after organizing the language.
"I disagree with this statement, and it is fair that those who make trouble and hurt others should be punished. As an ally, please hand over Ambu. ”
Jocher interjected, and he didn't respond positively to this, but just looked at Albert, who was the most powerful in the room, while the childhood friend said slowly.
"It would be better to do so, because he has lost his fiefdom, which is equivalent to a freelancer, and he will be flogged. Now is the time to employ a man, who as a peninsular, should know the route of the northern Italian region, and may be able to help us transport paper in the future. ”
Albert said very clearly, forcibly binding Bran must hand over the technology, or give up the benefits, and it is unlikely that he wants to eat alone.
Moreover, papermaking is not limited to Bran, Byzantium, and the East are available, but the raw materials used are different from the manufacturing process. After Bran's paper came out, the great lords who were interested in it also bought a lot and wanted to crack it, and it was only a matter of time before the technology was analyzed.
Everyone looked at Bran, who slowly raised his glass, "Wise decision, to the government, to Florence." ”
Albert was satisfied, and after having his wife Liana, his interests inevitably shifted to that side, and the long-term slander of his wife's family made him wary of Bran.
Although Grandmother Lady Meghan made herself good and did not need to rush, Albert suddenly couldn't help but force Bran.
The friend who was always ahead of him in the monastery couldn't imagine that he would admit defeat so quickly, and he was a little excited.
A few days ago, Albert had received a letter from Byzantium that the Purple Emperor was about to send an envoy, and now he felt that he was extremely important, a man who dominated the Mediterranean, and no longer the weak boy who feared being tested in the monastery.
A few hours later, the sunlight refracted onto the table, making it glaring.
Before the sun went down, Bran talked about a lot of things, and finally won the interests of some mercenary groups, so that Albert's surveillance plan was put on hold.
After Bran walked out of the big business hall, Jin Mang had been swallowed up by the black clouds, and this country from childhood to adulthood was much stranger.
Even the air is hot!
Once in the carriage, Bran began to close his eyes.
He didn't notice that someone was spying on him, a private decision from the other nobles in the city.
They have taken the benefits of Duke Nefer, and in the future, Bran will have to control every move here.
The carriage walked casually for a moment, and Bran rerouted.
Three hours later, two large lion statues were erected, and Bran arrived at Lady Meghan's mansion.
Albert had not yet returned, and after having tasted the affairs of men and women, Albert would take his lover with him in a carriage and make fun somewhere in the city of Meath at night, if he had nothing else to do. In addition to Monica, he had two more lovers.
After Bran got out of the car, he looked around, just now he looked out the window, and vaguely felt that someone was following, the street was dark, and there was no one to see, but he always felt uncomfortable, and he decided to bring more people with him in the future.
