Chapter 13: Split (Subscription Requested!! )
Stayed in Novgorod for one night, and the next day Mavi and the others returned to Mosk.
The affairs of the Night Wolf Clan were handed over to Bishop Gerry, and the living materials they needed were provided by the church, which could be regarded as a little compensation for Almeev and them.
The Yinermen Lake incident reminded Ma Wei that the prophesied calamity was not only those extraordinary creatures, but also herbs with strange effects, such as wolf's head black and blue moon algae.
Many people who do not know it are likely to be ingested or touched by mistake and encounter danger.
After thinking about it for a while, Mavi found Dino and Lisard, took out a few ancient books, and handed them over.
"Detailed Explanation of Special Herbal Medicine", "Encyclopedia of Potion Formulas", "Catalogue of Strange Beasts".... Father, what are you giving me these things for? ”
Dino flipped through it casually, a little unincomprehensible to Ma Wei's intentions.
"I want you to publish the information and pictures of these special herbs and transcendent creatures in Pravda in turn and distribute them to the people."
"What?!" Dino's eyes widened, and he lifted his silver-rimmed glasses: "Priest, these are all ancient books left over from the Heavenly Apocalypse Divine Sect!" It's a baby! Are we going to make them all public? ”
"If this information is not made public, the people will be in danger."
"But even if we do, the people won't appreciate it! They had no idea how much the church had sacrificed! There is no point in doing so! ”
"Believers are the foundation of the church, so why is there no point in protecting them?" Ma Wei looked at Dino quietly: "Maybe the people don't know the importance of these materials, but this doesn't prevent us from disclosing the information, what we do is to protect them, is it because they don't know about it?" This is outright utilitarianism, Dino .... This is the practice of truth, and we must not only know many things and many truths, but also do them. ”
Dino sighed: "Okay, but have you ever thought about it, Father, if we make this information public, it will certainly make many people avoid danger, but there will always be a small number of people who don't want to pick these herbs for profit!" These herbs are like precious ivory, and if people don't know their value, how can they be poached? ”
Greedy poachers do not know the truth of sustainable development, they are as short-sighted as the capitalists, and they will frantically grab profits until they are held to death.
"I have already read this book "Detailed Explanation of Special Herbs", the vast majority of the herbs recorded on it have terrible side effects, and the only ones who can resist the side effects are believers or transcendent beings who have been blessed by the goddess, and ordinary people cannot fight against them."
"What if there are extraordinary poachers from abroad? Huge benefits will make them take risks! ”
"Dealing with poachers with extraordinary abilities is the job of the Aurora Society, and I have arranged the extraordinary races with great power near the border to deal with the extraordinary people in other regions."
Dino stopped talking, his head bowed, not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing his appearance, Ma Wei's tone softened a little: "Dino, I know that everything you do is for the church, you hope that the church can prosper, and you hope that the church's financial problems can be solved, and I also believe that you can do it, just in terms of protecting the people.... The church must make concessions. ”
"If you weren't such a person, Father, I'm afraid I wouldn't have followed you in the first place." Dino smiled and asked Lissell to put away the ancient book: "There is no problem in publishing the information of herbs and transcendent races in the newspaper, but what does this "Potions Recipe Encyclopedia" do?" Father, don't tell me you even want to reveal the recipe...."
"Of course, the formula cannot be made public, this is the means of production that belongs to the whole people, if it is known to everyone, will it not lose its value?" Holding up the teacup, Ma Wei said vigorously: "I handed over this recipe to you, I want you to formulate a detailed potion price according to the above content, the rarity of the material and the effect of the finished potion, such as the wolf's head black, it can be used to make psychedelic potions, it is very difficult to obtain, you need to pick it under the nose of the night wolf clan, like this herb, the price is more expensive..."
Dino's eyes gradually brightened, like a hunter who had seen a treasure.
I see.... I see!
He completely understood Ma Wei's calculations!
Why is the price of wolf's head crow high?
Because where a large number of wolf head blacks grow, it is likely that there is a night wolf clan!
If you want to pick the wolf's head, you must pass the level of the Night Wolf Clan, for other kingdoms, this work is very risky, and if you are not careful, you will die, but in the eyes of the Church of Truth....
Need a wolf's head black?
Say hello to the Night Wolves and buy directly from them!
Invisibly, the cost of obtaining herbs is reduced!
The cost is low, but the price remains the same, won't the profit come?
And the tears of the Seran tribe .... This thing is extremely precious, it must be obtained directly from the Seran clan, the danger and difficulty are extremely high, and other kingdoms may have to work hard to get a few drops, but the Church of Truth does not need to be so troublesome!
"Father, Father...."Dino shook his head and smiled, "So you've thought it all through." ”
"There are no absolutely bad things in the world, and there are no absolute good things, and the bad things of some groups may be good things for other groups, and it is also beneficial to make herbal information public." Ma Wei said faintly: "In a few days, I will leave for the Windsor Kingdom, as a grocer, I need you to provide me with a source of goods at that time, if the buyer asks me how I know the names and effects of these herbs, I can openly say that it is the public information of the Truth Church..."
"Use potions to get close to the higher-ups of the Kingdom of Windsor?" Dino was surprised: "This is really a good idea, in a few days, potions will definitely become extremely sought-after, and grocery merchants selling potions are also hot.... Is the identity problem solved? ”
"Daniel will help to get the identity, a grocer from the kingdom of Frederick, just like you at the beginning, there are many ways, buying medicinal herbs from all over the world, only they can't think of it, there is nothing I can't buy.... To deal with those old foxes, you can't take a long time. ”
"Don't worry, Father, I'll have everything you need for you when the time comes, I've got experience in that." Dino said with a smile.
"The utensils for storing herbs must not be marked without any markings, they must not be traced to their origin, and the materials must be carefully selected, and if it is a wooden box, remember to use wood close to the area of Frederick's kingdom."
"No problem, wrap it up on me!"
"It's not the same time, Dino..."
Ma Wei got up and walked to the window, looked at the Mosk River not far away, and said in a calm voice: "Now, we have reached the highest point of the Romanov Kingdom, behind us is the vast and majestic land of the Romanov Kingdom, and beside us are countless comrades who can be trusted!" We.... I already have the capital to be on an equal footing with those kingdoms and churches! ”
"When the next cold wind to wreak havoc on the world arrives.... We are destined to bear the brunt of this. ”
"We don't need to be confused or afraid, the light of truth will show us the way, everything in the world is the truth, under the truth.... It's all in vain! ”
.........................................
September 13, noon, Mosk.
As soon as a train pulled into the Central Station and stopped at Platform 1, a non-commissioned officer in a gray military uniform rushed off the train, hurriedly jumped into the four-wheeled carriage waiting for guests outside the station, and rushed towards the Kremlin.
Da Da Da Da ....
Da Da Da Da ....
Almost galloping footsteps rang out in the corridors, and Katerina, who was enjoying lunch, was busy with government affairs even at mealtime, holding a lamb chop sandwich dipped in sour cream in one hand and the Chancellor's quarterly report in the other.
Card!
The door of the office was pushed open, Katerina frowned, and was about to reprimand, when she heard the non-commissioned officer who rushed into the room pull out a document and shouted: "Urgent... Urgent military report! Your Majesty is not good! The Southwestern Front, the Northwestern Front, the First and Second Armies, they have committed treason!! ”
The Southwestern Front is an army led by the Duke of Tbilisi, the Northwestern Front is an army under Count Shirkov, and the leader of the First and Second Armies is Duke Yinvanovich, and the combined strength of their troops is 600,000!
More than two months ago, the Church of Truth defeated the Cult of Wisdom, and the kingdom army fled, Katerina did not regard them as great enemies, and sent Makarov, Jorus, Goffman, Onufri and other generals to pursue, with the strategy of surrender, trying to break the military power of Duke Yovanovich and others, and collect the army without blood.
No one took Duke Yinvanovich and the others to heart, although they had a lot of troops under their command, but without the help of the church, on the other hand, Onufri and Makarov, the armies that pursued them, although the number was small, but there were many monks of the Church of Truth in the army, and the strength of the two sides was not proportional at all.
What's more, the defeated royal army was already frightened, and the soldiers fled in two ways, Count Shirkov fled to Helsinki, Duke Yovanovich and Duke Tbilisi fled to Warsaw and Kiev, where the last line of defense was established, and Katerina, who did not want to break out into a bloody conflict, did not order a strong attack, but in the name of the queen, issued a letter of surrender, and the soldiers who surrendered were all exempted from responsibility and will not be held accountable.
Under the queen's recruitment, in the past two months, nearly half of the soldiers surrendered, escaped from the barracks at night, and returned to the Romanov kingdom, and Katerina also fulfilled her promise, did not embarrass these soldiers, and even let them continue to serve, but only broke up the reorganization and changed the commander.
The situation is very good, even if they don't attack, Duke Yin Wanovich and others won't be able to support it for long, and when it comes to winter, they will be short of supplies, and their morale will naturally collapse, and then Katerina will be able to win without a fight, but....
What no one expected happened.
Just yesterday, Duke Yovanovich declared independence in Warsaw, wanting to secede from the Romanov kingdom!
As soon as Duke Yovanovich's declaration of independence came out, the Duke of Tbilisi, who was hiding in Kiev, immediately responded and declared independence, and as for Count Shirkov in the northwest, I am afraid that he will also issue a declaration of independence soon and secede from the Romanov kingdom.
Bang!
Katerina slapped the desk again, the teacup clanged, her silver teeth clenched, and her eyes were full of evil: "They are looking for death!" Immediately give the order for Makarov and them to attack Warsaw, Kyiv, Helsinki, and send this group of rebels who want to rebel to the gallows! ”
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, on the day they heard that Duke Yovanovich had declared their independence, General Makarov and they went on the offensive and are currently engaged in a fierce battle! ”
"Fierce battles? How can there be a fierce battle? Father Mavi has left so many monks, there shouldn't be suspense in this battle! ”
"It's Bopang... Oh no, it's the Bonaparte Empire that sent reinforcements! The messenger said quickly: "There is a group of monks of the Cult of Wisdom who have bypassed the kingdom of Frederick and infiltrated from the territory of the Barbarossa Empire to Kiev, Warsaw, and Helsinki!" ”
"Napoleon!!
Katerina instantly understood that it must be Napoleon Bonaparte who was secretly causing trouble! In order to divide the Romanov kingdom, he simply did anything!
"Your Majesty, what shall we do?" The sergeant looked horrified, apparently having heard the name of Napoleon: "To declare war on the Bonaparte Empire?" ”
Katerina sat back in her chair, put one hand on her forehead, and rubbed her temples: "The whole world is targeting us.... Those damn bastards.... Not only to block us, but also to secretly engage in separatism.... Good, good, good.... Well done! ”
"Marusha!"
"Your Majesty."
"Go and ask Father Mavi!"
