"I understand, for the sake of the family, for their future, right? rest assured, Earl of Il will get what he deserves. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Jung said this, and even had a feeling of pleading, Jonas naturally knew that this smelter was ironclad and could not be saved, since this was the case, he no longer insisted, anyway, this is all to blame, money obsessed, doing things too much fanfare, this is being remembered, it can be regarded as self-inflicted trouble, no wonder others.

In the future, I must not be so arrogant, it seems that I need to learn from Jung's ability to make a fortune. Jonas silently summed up his mistakes in his heart, for his cheap father, he has been with him for so long now, and he always feels that in his eyes, Jung's shortcomings are becoming less and less, and his advantages are increasing.

Just like now, there is obviously a wealth second only to the earl in the Earldom of Il, but no one hates him, even if he resents him, he just makes moves with his son, on the surface, it is quite respectful to Jung, even if they sit in this remote corner, from time to time there are aristocratic old men who walk up to them about a few meters away and toast to Jung, Jung can always notice that these people who raise glasses to him never fall behind, they look very gentlemanly, they can't see the dull appearance at home at all, they seem to be like real elites, like a gentleman in school, a Sven scum。

However, the aristocracy eats this set of things, for them, Wuxun is just one of the indicators to test a nobleman, in addition, there must be enough financial resources and the ability to appreciate art, and Jung is obviously lacking in the latter, but this deficiency, except for a few nobles who have been with them for a long time, can not see it at all.

Therefore, Jung can be said to be very popular among the aristocracy, which is not a skill to be able to achieve such a powerful achievement in the aristocracy, which is very good at jealousy and calculation, and this is also what Jonas needs to learn.

"Well, Jonas, don't worry, Earl Il is a generous man, and I am not a father who will make you wronged, you will get your due, well, in the near future. Hearing that Jonas agreed, the big stone in Jung's heart was also put down, as for the rest of the matter, naturally there were people from Earl Il to deal with, and Jung did not have too much burden on this political deal, as long as Jonas agreed, Jung did not have any opinion.

"In the near future, I'm really a person who can say what others like to hear. Jonas scoffed at this sentence, and gave the earl's position, can the earl of Il give himself another earl's position, this is impossible, Jonas doesn't expect this unrealistic idea to come true, as long as that bastard of Earl doesn't get an inch, thinking of this, Jonas said solemnly to Jung:

"Father, I will hand over the smelter to him, I agree, and all the technology will be transferred to him, if he wants to expand, or move out, this is fine, I have no opinion, but he must agree to my two requests, only if I agree, I can give it to her. ”

"Well, then you go and tell Earl Il, I'm just ....." Hearing that Jonas was going to put forward conditions, Jung's head ached, and he quickly made an excuse, wanting to leave this matter aside, but where would Jonas allow him to escape, since you brought it up, Jonas would not let him go.

"Don't you just don't just don't be, don't think I don't know who you came to make you come, after saying so much, isn't it just a title, my conditions are not harsh, there are only two, the first, his army is not allowed to be stationed in my territory, if you need to protect the smelter, you must have my soldiers to protect it, of course the commissions of these soldiers must be paid to me, otherwise, as an independent lord, I firmly disagree with Lord Earl Il for doing something that violates the lord's regulations, this is not difficult. ”

Under the pretext of protecting the mine, sending troops to be stationed in his own territory is a situation that Jonas does not want to face, his army has just been formed, and he has suffered serious attrition in this battle, it can be said that it is in the stage of strong individual combat effectiveness and collective fighting will has not yet been formed, at this time, if there is a strong army stationed in his territory, Jonas is very afraid, and he will never allow this.

"Of course you can, Jonas, Count Il is not what you think, he is now the one who is about to become a duke, the whole duke is his, where does he care about your little place, as for commissions, my child, I haven't heard that you are still of Jewish descent. ”

Hearing that his son was talking about money, Jung couldn't help laughing, although Jung's mentality was much better than in previous years, as a nobleman, he still had some mind about attaching importance to money, so when he heard Jonas mention money, Jung's tone became a lot more generous, as if Il was not a greedy person, and he also knocked on the side to Jonas, asking him to learn from Count Il, not to look at money.

Anyway, Count Il lacks everything, that is, he is not short of money, and he lacks everything, and even more so lacks money, which is not just complementary, so Jonas doesn't care about Jung's contempt, in his opinion, as long as he gets substantial benefits, he doesn't care about that bit of rumors.

"As for the second point, that is, all the workers in the smelter belong to me, and at the present time when I am Viscount Birlo, these miners and blacksmiths can work for the Count, and of course, their wages are also paid by the Earl, and I have the right to take the craftsmen and laborers with me at any time, and this must be done. ”

This point is more important than the previous point, a smelter, equipment is important, but personnel, especially experienced craftsmen are more important, they often play a key role in this non-modern, assembly line production process, the quality of a weapon, but also often in their beating between the decision, and these craftsmen, each of them is an experienced old craftsman, but also Jonas in the past few months, he does not want to give up these people, each of these people, for him, is as precious as gold, which is why Jonas is willing to give all the parts to Yir, not willing to give up a craftsman。

Without those parts, Jonas could rebuild them, and even if he could, he could make better boilers, find coal that burned more fully, and forge sharper weapons, and these craftsmen had a very difficult time finding better ones.

In this era, every craftsman is protected by the lords, they produce tools, and then distribute them to farmers or citizens, which is a necessary condition for the lord to control the citizens, such a person is like a forbidden for the lord, almost no lord will let go, which is why in this era the advanced smelting technology is only in the hands of a few high nobles, that is, because there is almost no liquidity between the craftsmen, with money, it is absolutely impossible to buy, if all the craftsmen in their territory die, then waiting for the lord, it will die of the high annual iron purchase costs, in such a marketYou can imagine how important a craftsman is.

As for those slaves, the reason why Jonas also had to take them away was entirely because of his personal heroism, after he had just arrived in Birro's territory, Jonas still remembered that he had said a sentence in front of all the miners, this sentence was a promise, the content of the promise, that is, as long as these slaves worked as slaves, they could become free people within eight years, and their children could obtain the status of a lord, this oath was signed between Jonas and these slaves.

In this world, no one will sign any contract with slaves, let alone turn slaves into free people, unless they are favored by the lord, in addition, a slave with an ordinary appearance and no ability to fight is impossible to become a free citizen again, and Earl Il will naturally not be able to, so Jonas must bring them back, as long as this way, he can not lose his trust with these slaves, and let them not have their dreams shattered, for stepping on the dreams of these poor people, Jonas is a little unbearable, this may be the biggest difference between Jonas and people of this era。

"Artisans and slaves? You want these people too? You must be too careful, right?" Jung was originally going to say stingy, but seeing Jonas's vicious eyes, he finally took it back, if Jonas disagreed with it because of such a person and thing, where would Jung find a place to cry?

However, Jung still expressed an appropriate reaction to Jonas's slamming of the door, in his opinion, those craftsmen can stay, after all, those people are very rare, if they are given out, for the territory of Polro, it is indeed not an easy thing to accept, but those slaves, that are just more than a thousand people, where can they not be found, if necessary, Jung himself can buy a thousand people for Jonas, which also needs to stay, at least in Jung's opinion, there is no great need.

"No, you must promise me this, or you will use your ancestral home to apologize to Earl of Il. "On this issue, Jonas's will is unprecedentedly tough, the land can be lost but the person cannot be lost, and the smelter will be given away, but this person will never be able to, this is a matter of principle, and Jonas will never change it.

"Well, I'll tell Earl Earl that I can promise you if you can help Earl Earl train a group of skilled workers before the war ends and our family goes further, how about that?" Jonas's insistence made Jung a little speechless, and finally he could only agree, but he also knew that just a smelter, if there was no old worker who knew how to use it, this technology would never be able to be explored by himself, in this way, Il's pass would definitely not pass, he sent out the smelter in order to get closer to Il, not to create a gap between the two people, if in the end Count Il got a smelter that was useless, it would be better to refuse Il's request from the beginning。

"Well, I can do that. Jonas nodded and agreed to Jung's request, he also knew that this was already the best result, if it was more serious, it would not be good for anyone, Jung saw that Jonas agreed, finally breathed a sigh of relief, drank the wine in the glass, and ate the food on the plate, and talked about the deal with Jonas, it was too tired.

If he had a choice, he would rather go to war than have a fight with Jonas, his son.

After the two had finished eating, Jung was the first to leave his seat, looking at the direction he was going, it was the central hall of the whole banquet, it seemed that Jung should have gone to the Count of Il to discuss the terms he proposed, Jonas didn't care about him, drinking low-alcohol wine to himself, listening to the cheerful music of the military band players in his ears, lying on the manicured lawn, to be honest, he missed his younger brothers and sisters a little.

"Damn war, damn politics. Jonas cursed under his breath.

"Your Excellency Viscount Jonas, why are you lying here alone?Is the music here too noisy?" Just as Jonas was enjoying the rare purity, a somewhat old voice suddenly sounded in his ears, Jonas opened his eyes and looked at the place where the voice came from, the person who called him was his strategic partner in this attack on Piedmont, the old Viscount of Juana.

"Mr. Jana, why do you have time to come to me?" Jonas looked at the person in front of him, and was very puzzled, since the army of the Count of Il entered Piedmont, this Viscount Jana lost contact with him, and after he conquered Genaya, the situation was the same, plus, this place is in the middle of nowhere, if it wasn't for something, he would never come here, this Juana came here on purpose, and greeted himself, Jonas was really suspicious in his heart.

"I just want to sober up, you know, I'm not a good drinker, and if I drink too much, I'm going to make jokes. Jana didn't admit that he had come to look for Jonas on purpose, but in Jonas's ears, he didn't believe it, looking at this big belly, he didn't look like a person who couldn't drink.

"Yes, Viscount Giona, you can rest well, my father is still looking for me, and if he is late, he will be unhappy. Since the other party is unwilling to treat each other with sincerity, Jonas naturally does not want to stay longer, and Jung made an excuse, and Jonas is ready to leave this place of right and wrong.
