Chapter 186: The King Plays and Meets Acquaintances Again
The arms trade was settled in a few words.
This batch of trade can also have a net profit of 300,000 yuan in hand, which can be said to be extremely profitable.
Of course, in addition to firearms, Olek and Hogz value artillery more, which is the weapon that determines victory or defeat on the battlefield.
Even if the emperor is not equipped with firearms, he needs to be equipped with artillery, which is a siege artifact.
Of course, there are no samples of artillery now, but it still can't stop Olek's banknote ability, so he directly pre-ordered twenty guns and ordered 10,000 shells.
A total of 10,000, two golds in one battle, and one standard high-explosive gold.
This is really a cannon shot, and it is ten thousand taels of gold.
Of course, this money is not earned in vain from his own father, supporting training bombs, personnel training, Gooden are all given away in a free way, and include after-sales maintenance and other accessories and other benefits, it can be said that it is a good businessman who buys service for life in one step.
A million gold coins were spent at once, and Olek didn't even blink an eye.
This small amount of money is just a test for him to see how to form a special army, and if it works well, he will continue to expand and refine it.
After all, Goodern had promised that once the latest fourth-generation weapons were developed, the Empire would be the first to purchase and assemble them.
"Okay, the matter has been discussed, I won't keep you anymore, you can go out for a walk when you have time to come to the royal capital, and the expenses will be recorded on the royal family, and I will have someone accompany you."
After the arms negotiations were over, Olex asked Gooden to go around the royal capital by himself, so that he could feel the strength of the empire.
In the past, he was still too worried about Gooden, but now it seems that if he hadn't been protected for those ten years, maybe he would have grown faster?
After retiring, it was already noon when Gooden returned to his palace, and after a brief meal, he took Irene and Joseph Sr. to prepare to go out for a stroll in the royal capital.
Of course, I didn't forget Hogzi and the others who were still waiting outside.
The group, counting the Garay and the guards who followed, there were about twenty people in the group, and the carriage alone was arranged.
The royal capital has a population of one million, and even at night, some areas are still brightly lit, and now during the day, the flow of people is even greater. br>
However, fortunately, the urban construction plan of the royal capital has obviously been professionally designed, the main road is very wide, and there are specially designed sidewalks, and there is no situation where people and carriages share the same road.
Although Gooden is from the royal capital and is considered a royal capital, he doesn't know anything about the situation in the royal capital, and he doesn't even know where to have fun when he comes to the place where he grew up, which is really ironic.
But fortunately, there are also two guides here, who can give a lot of good places to visit, but in the end, Gooden's first stop chose the Yongshuangjiang Wharf outside the royal capital.
This choice made everyone wonder, but they navigated it all the way without asking too much.
From the Yongshuang Mountains all the way down through the entire Orrea Empire, the length of the Yongshuang River is nearly 10,000 kilometers, and the real number is amazing, and outside the royal capital, the Yongshuang River will be divided into two, one leading to the Rydro Empire, and the other to the Eastern Green Valley in the eastern part of the empire.
As the true center of the empire, the Fenggu Plain has unparalleled fertile plains, and the Yongshuang River that runs through it allows the region to produce enough food for the whole continent to eat for a whole year, and because of its flatness, the Yongshuang River has one of the few navigable rivers.
If you want to play, you have to start with the most attractive place.
As a visitor from another world, Goodern is full of curiosity about the workings of civilization and the habits of life in this world.
And as the first stop for many people to come to the royal capital, it can be regarded as a gathering of people from all over the empire, and you can also feel and see the appearance of the most basic people in the empire more intuitively.
Going out from Xicheng and slowly walking south along the estuary, with a warm breeze blowing, Goodern had a simple idea of the riches of the empire.
From the outer city of Law
You can feel the affluence of what the residents are wearing, as well as the prices in the surrounding area.
Unlike Qingyuan Town, in the north of his country, the annual income is at most two or three gold coins, and the most ordinary residents around the royal capital can have a single income of seven or eight gold.
The difference is several times far, and although the price will be a little more expensive, there is a huge supply in the surrounding cities, which is also a normal civilian price, and it is absolutely no problem to eat a meal of meat in three or two days.
Moreover, unlike the cold of the north, the Bunya Plain can only feel the three seasons of spring, summer and autumn all year round, and it is precisely for this reason that even in the middle of December, the breeze outside has a hint of warmth.
Such a climate makes the royal capital, and even the entire city of the Fenggu Plain, have no so-called hibernation and rest habits, and even in winter, they will work normally, so that they can operate and work almost all year round.
However, although they rarely take breaks, their work is not 996 every day, and they still have enough rest time every day.
And a walk around the outside of the city, in addition to allowing Goodern to understand the grassroots operation of the empire, also felt the enormity of the royal city even more.
Coming out of the west city wall, and then going south to detour through the side gate of the south city, it took almost half an hour, and the road to Lu Chen exceeded nearly ten kilometers, which is only a corner of the city wall is already so long, if the length of the whole city is added together, the length will be even larger.
After returning to the South Gate and re-entering the city, Goodern did not choose to wander around any strange places, but went straight to the trading district to the east of the South City.
As the trading district of the royal capital, this is also one of the areas that never sleeps in the city.
On both sides of the bustling street, many pedestrians are browsing the shops and items.
Although Qingyuan Town has resumed its bustle, there are not so many commercial shops in the whole town, and the only tavern and a few shops are still firmly in his hands, and the goods he provides are still provided.
Therefore, if you want to go shopping, there is nothing to visit, which can be regarded as the lack of Qingyuan Town.
And now that I have come to Wangcheng, I naturally have to go shopping, shopping, and spending, which can be regarded as taking Erin to relax and play.
After walking down the street, there were a lot of clothes in the carriage that were unique to this world, and there were a lot of cloths for making clothes.
"Young Master, there are so many clothes that I can't finish them at all!"
Erin, who had changed into a new dress, sat in the carriage and said to Gooden.
"Is it too much? Well, okay, then don't buy it, let's go, go to Magic Street, I'll buy something else."
Looking at the carriage's suitcases full of clothes, Goodern touched his chin and ordered a U-turn.
Seeing that the young master finally stopped buying clothes, this made Erin breathe a sigh of relief.
At the same time, I was a little distressed, and a piece of clothing on my body was almost catching up with the money of a set of armor.
And Goodern bought her a lot of clothes like this, and there were a lot of good fabrics, although they were really comfortable to wear...... But......
What Erin didn't know, of course, was that the money wasn't paid by Gooden at all.
Head to the nearby Magic Street, where the shops are all related to magical tools and materials.
Although the empire advocates the profession of martial arts, it is also cultivating mages, although the number is definitely not as good as that of the Vimar Empire, but with the population base of 100 million minutes, the group of mages is still very large.
However, Magic Street is not as lively as the streets I have visited before, and there are relatively few pedestrians on the road.
This was a normal thing, and after getting out of the carriage, Goodern began to sweep directly from the first shop.
The process of establishing a magic academy in Qingyuan Town is already imminent, and the relevant preparations must also begin.
For example, some related magical materials need to be prepared, but there are still some missing materials that have not yet been found.
This time he came to the royal capital, and Gooden also planned to take this opportunity to purchase together.
Of course, in addition to the magic materials, Gudern is more important
Still looking for something called Magic Spider Silk.
As for the use of this thing, cough, it is to replace the current chemical industry that cannot produce nylon materials.
Even in the fantasy world, the fabric and toughness of the current normal fabric still cannot reach the required strength.
So, at the suggestion of several tailors, Goodern came to Magic Street to find a replacement.
Entering the magic shop, a variety of materials are lined up in containers and shelves, and the unique fluctuations of magic are also emanating.
With a slight touch, Goodern could see that all the items lined up here were magically protected.
The group entered the store, and the shopkeeper, who was meditating at the counter, glanced up slightly.
Although he didn't use detection magic to sense the strength of the other party, just from the royal attendants who followed, he could see that the other party's identity was not ordinary.
Seeing this, the owner of the magic shop hurriedly got up and greeted.
"Do you need anything from this guest?"
"Buy some materials, do you have any of these in your store?"
Gudern said, handing him a prepared purchase note.
The shopkeeper took the note, glanced at the items and quantities, and his eyes instantly became different, and a brighter smile immediately appeared on his face.
"This guest, is it all about this?"
"Well, all of them."
Hearing Gooden's confirmation, the shopkeeper hurriedly said.
"There are too many things you need in this store, but I can help to make up for some of them in the surrounding area, and it will take some time, customer?"
It's normal for a magic shop to not be able to eat, and the price of the materials he gives is more than 400,000 gold coins, if it weren't for his father's reward, it is estimated that he can only buy a quarter of his belongings this time.
But now, in addition to rewards, you can also help him swipe his card for free, so there is no burden on him.
"It's okay, I'm waiting here, by the way, do you have any magic spider silk here?"
"Demon Spider Silk? Not...... We don't have much in stock of this stuff, so I don't know how much the guests want?"
The shopkeeper thought for a moment and asked.
"How many do you have here?"
"About two kilograms."
"It's all about it."
Hearing this amount, Goodern didn't blink his brows and directly waved his big hand and wrapped it all down.
The price of one gram of demon spider silk is about ten gold, and the price of two kilograms is only about 20,000 gold.
This little money, Goodern can solve it himself.
The time for the preparation of the magic materials was not long, and after waiting for Goodern to disappear in the store's special rest area, the shopkeeper returned with the prepared magic materials.
Magic materials worth four sounds like a lot, but in fact, all the materials added together are only enough to fill half of Gooden's storage magic weapons.
In terms of natural payment, Garay naturally followed with the royal voucher to type out the payment slip and let the special personnel dock the payment.
For such a payment method, the store owner is not surprised.
The Magic Shop is not only a channel for ordinary individual mages, but also a separate supply for some academies or institutions.
This is also a common thing, after all, most of the people who come to purchase are errands, and it is impossible to carry so much cash with them.
After completing the purchase of what he needed, he led everyone to continue to wander around the royal city to see the prosperous scenery of the royal capital.
Although the area of the royal capital is only hundreds of square kilometers, there are many internal divisions, and even if you go for an afternoon, you can almost visit a small half of the southern city area.
If you want to walk around the city, you can't finish it.
And now killing time is the biggest problem for Gooden, after all, it will take seven days to wait for the award, this time Gu
Deen can also be regarded as able to officially relax.
That night, Olek looked at what Goodern was consuming today, and the corners of his eyes twitched.
On this day, I will kill him 10,000 gold coins, this little rabbit cub really dares to brush it.
However, these Oleks can understand the magic materials, after all, Gooden is a mage, and it is normal to buy some of this thing, but what the hell is this large pile of women's clothing, accessories, and fabrics?
Although he also knew that this thing was bought for the girl named Erin, but he just brushed his money openly, is that okay?
Olek took a brief look, and after complaining in his heart, he didn't pursue anything.
After all, this is also what he said personally, and Gudeen's expenses are all recorded in the royal family's account.
The more hard Gudern spends, the happier Olek becomes, and there will be a valid reason to keep him when the time comes.
And compared with the expenses of several other loser sons from birth to now, this consumption can only be regarded as a fraction, and Olek doesn't care.
……
Since agreeing to make an arms deal with his own father, Goodern has spent three days in the royal city.
Although there are a lot of expenses in the follow-up, it is not gold when added together, most of them are some money for eating, drinking and having fun.
On the fourth day, Gooden was about to continue his outing, when the palace guards suddenly came to report.
"Lord Earl, Your Majesty has something important to look for you, please go to the palace now."
Hearing that there was a yes, Gooden was stunned and responded.
"I see."
Then he turned back to Erin and Joseph Sr.
"Let's rest today, I've been playing for two days, I'll go to Your Majesty's side first."
"Hmm." Erin also understood which was more important, and nodded her head.
And old Joseph also nodded slightly to make it clear.
After an explanation, Goodern boarded the carriage that had come to pick him up and went to meet Olek.
In the palace in the center of the imperial city, Gooden was led by his attendants to the side of the small hall.
In the hall, in addition to Olek and Hogz, there were two familiar faces of Goodern.
Anna, Morse!
Gooden was also a little surprised to see the two here, but he still greeted his father first, and then said hello to Anna.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness Anna."
Seeing Goodern's arrival, Anna and Morse nodded slightly to greet him, and this scene was also seen by Olek.
At the same time, I can't help but think that my son's connections are quite good, but now I have to get down to business first.
"When the people arrive, let's go on."
"The situation of the orcs, the Captain of the Hogz Legion has checked it, and it is indeed the same as you said, there is an unknown force in these orcs that is helping them."
"And this situation is not only in one or two orc transcendentals, but may also appear in all orc transcendentals, such a thing has touched the bottom line of the continent."
"In addition to this, the orcs plan to use the elemental leyline, and no such situation has been found on the entire front, so let Count Goodern talk about the details."
After a brief listening to His Majesty Olek's words, Goodern also understood the reason why Anna and Morse were here.
It is to deal with the situation of solving the dark transformation of the orcs and the resurrection of the undead.
And what he said was the details of the previous encounter between him and Herissa in the elemental leylines.
Goodborn pondered the order of the words for a moment, and in a moment he told all the information about the situation and the information that Herissa had mentioned.
Although such a report has been presented once on paper, when it comes to some of the details that the actual person has spoken, it can't help but make Olek frown slightly.
Absorb the power of the elemental leylines of the dead corpse, so as to break through to a higher level of power, and even the academy teachers at the peak of the transcendent peak have not been able to do it in the first place
Discover each other.
Such a situation is not a good thing for an empire that is at war.
First of all, the problem of detection is no longer something that ordinary people can handle.
What's more, under the current daily battle situation, the casualties on both sides are tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and the number of casualties in the entire battlefield in the north of the empire has almost exceeded 800,000 as soon as the war has started in a month.
And the orcs have already exceeded the number of 10,000, which includes the number of 800,000 orcs exterminated in the western part of the northern border.
If there is no such number, the battle loss ratio of the orcs and the empire is also seventy to eighty, and for the empire, even the losses in defensive battles are still higher than those of the orcs.
Such a situation is not the crotch pull of the emperor, but the orcs really have their own strength.
"This matter is more serious than what was reported, and it looks like we need the help of your Heflos Kingdom this time."
Olek pondered for a moment, then looked at Anna and said.
"This matter is incumbent upon Heflos, the initial 30,000 Holy Cavalry Legions can set off at hand, and after the discussion is confirmed, they will immediately set off for the front line to prepare."
