Chapter 271
On the second day after his return to Saeu, Barceló entered the palace and asked to see Moller.
The people of the kingdom of Niah know that there are two royal palaces in the country, one in the city of the Golden Deer and the other in the city of Zayo. Golden Deer City is the capital of the country, and the royal palace there is large and magnificent. But if he were to find His Majesty, he would probably be in the palace of the city of Zayo, where His Majesty's most respected brother lived.
Although the royal palace of Sayu City is not as large as the Golden Deer City, under the many renovations of Moeller, the atmosphere is completely different from the past, and the strange buildings and patterns full of magic colors make this palace look very mysterious and beautiful although it lacks the grandeur of ordinary palaces.
After Barcelo asked the guards to report, he waited less than a minute before he was allowed to enter Master Moller's study, but as soon as he entered the door, he was surprised to see that His Majesty Rex and Ereba and Brandon were also there, and the four of them didn't know what they were discussing at this time, but their faces were obviously not good.
The low air pressure naturally emitted by the four high-level powerhouses made Barcelo, a low-level magician who had just reached the third order, almost unbearable, and he only felt that the air in the study was solidified, and he couldn't breathe it into his lungs at all-Mother, didn't you say that Lord Moeller was in a good mood recently!
"I don't think it's impossible to go to war with Tibarabi, but it's going to take time - we'll have at least half a year to prepare before we have a good chance of winning. ”
Moller, who had just closed his eyes and seemed to be sleeping, opened his eyes and uttered these words that shocked Barcelo inexplicably—we are going to war against the kingdom of Tibarabi? What happened? It was one of the four kingdoms, far from being a behemoth that small and medium-sized countries could match!
While Barcelo was in shock, Rex was excited, apparently very much in favor of the idea of going to war, while Brandon and Ereba were not very opposed, although worried.
Then Moller suddenly turned his head and asked, "Barceló, you have returned to the city of Zayo." What are you looking for me?"
Barcelo was so preoccupied with the earth-shattering event that the Kingdom of Nia was preparing to go to war with Tibarabi that he almost forgot what he was going to say, but fortunately it was just a nearsight.
After listening to Barceló's request to get involved in the steel manufacturing industry, Moeller nodded and said quite agreeably: "The steel manufacturing industry really needs a capable person to improve, even if you don't take the initiative yourself, I want to build it for you." But now the situation has changed, and I ask you to double the steel production in the territory within three months, and the quality must not deteriorate!"
Barcelo was stunned again, the output doubled in three months, and the small ones couldn't do it!
But Moller quickly added: "If you do it, I will make you a baron!"
"Well, a baron!" Rex nodded in agreement with Moller's words.
If you can't do it, you have to do it! Barcelo's whole momentum changed, and his eyes were suddenly full of fighting spirit. Although Lord Moller never treated him with the same attitude as a slave, and he was happy to serve him, it would be great if he could restore his nobility and make his mother happy!
"That...... My lord, can you ask if we really want to go to war with the kingdom of Tibarabi?" Seeing that the conversation was about to end, Barcelo couldn't help but ask about the shocking news he had just heard.
"Quite possibly. Moller replied.
"Do you know why?" Barceló's voice was weak.
Moeller said succinctly: "During his visit to the city of Sayo, Prince Pondurin of the kingdom of Tibarabi violated the laws of the country by instructing his subordinates to kill a commoner woman in the city for no reason, and his entourage has now been detained, and the other party is very arrogant and has not repented at all. ”
Barcelo didn't speak, and he was angry about such a thing, but it was beyond his expectations to go to war with a big country because of this.
"Go back to your mother, and let her find some sycophancy to compliment the prince. Sue him, we are actually riding a tiger is difficult, and we are actually very frightened in our hearts, and we are very reluctant to detain him. Give him the best enjoyment, give him attractive prospects, numb him with his preferences, and let him enjoy it...... As long as it can be delayed for half a year, it will be a great achievement!"
Hearing that there was no need to immediately confront Tibarabi, Barcelo breathed a sigh of relief, Lord Moller's plan seemed to be good, and if it could be delayed for at least half a year, there might be a turnaround......
"Barceló. I heard Moeller say again: "As for the war, if it is not fought well, it will be a bottomless pit that swallows money, but if it is fought well, it will be more profitable than any business! As long as you regard it as an industry that can make a thousand times more profit, there is nothing to fear!"
Barceló was guided and immediately felt that there was nothing to be afraid of starting a war with Tibarabi, so he agreed to Moeller's request in a trance. However, when he left the palace and calmed down completely, he suddenly turned into a bitter face again.
I was fooled by adults!But now, I can only trust the abilities of a few adults. Barcelo secretly clenched his fists, no matter what, he would contribute his part to it!
Prince Pondurin, who was nearly thirty years old, sat proudly on his high seat, surrounded by a group of noble children, flattering him.
A young man said: "We nobles in a small country in the middle of nowhere are not really knowledgeable, and I have seen an earl from the kingdom of Ristan before, and when we observe his behavior, we think that he is a real nobleman." But now that I have seen you, Your Royal Highness, I understand what kind of earl you are, and you can't even compare to a single hair of yours!"
Pondurin glanced at the young nobleman and said, "The kingdom of Ristan and our Tibarabi belong to the four kingdoms, and their nobles can also see it, how can you say that it is so unbearable!"
"Go!go!" As soon as Pondurin said this, someone next to him immediately helped to rebuke the young nobleman: "His Royal Highness the Prince is of noble character, and he is like a son of God. Do you think he's someone like you who likes to belittle others and exalt yourself! You nasty guy better stop talking!"
Pondurin maintained a haughty expression, but the smile in his eyes never ceased, and he liked to see these rude things fighting in front of him for flattery.
He turned his head and took a sip of his hand
In the 8th-order magic crystal cup on the side, the golden wine was paid tribute by the nobles of Sayo City. This wine, which was more precious than the same volume of gold, even as a prince, he had not drunk it a few times before, but now he could enjoy it to his heart's content. He was getting happier and happier with his decision to stay.
After the initial detention, in addition to anger, Pondurin was also a little scared. It was not that he was afraid that the people of this little kingdom would dare to hurt him, but because of his father, Huppopo of the kingdom of Tibarab.
This ambitious Majesty is a 9th-order demon warrior, so although he is in his sixties, he is still fierce, he has many sons and daughters, and there are constantly new ones, so not all children will be pampered. Pondurin was the one who was not too favored. Therefore, in a situation like him being detained by a medium-sized kingdom, even if his father taught the country a lesson to save him out of face, he would definitely blame him for his shame after returning home, and his life would definitely not be easy in the future......
But then the attitude of the nobles of this country gave Pondurin an opportunity-it turned out that they would be forced to detain themselves, and they were actually very frightened in their hearts--that's right, he said, how could a small country in the middle of nowhere dare to offend the majesty of their kingdom of Tibarabi!
Calm down, Pondurin felt that he could take advantage of this opportunity to make enough profits from this rich country that was very good at running business, even his father would not be indifferent to those industries that made hundreds of thousands of gold coins a year, as long as he could get enough benefits, his father would not only not blame him, but would pamper him!
So Prince Pondurine, who was very angry at first, was appeased in the flattery, and was even willing to write to his father to make peace with the offense of the kingdom of Nia - of course he would not write it himself, but only to let the squires reveal a little meaning, and in order to beg him to write this letter, the nobles of the city of Sayo gave him enough benefits.
In a letter to his father, Pendulin told him about his plan to take advantage of the opportunity to loot profits, and His Majesty Huppo turned his anger into joy and praised him for the first time in history, so Pondurin was even more motivated to stay in the city of Sayou, and while making a fortune, he took the opportunity to seek benefits.
After a few moments, Pondurin, who was tired of the flattery, waved off the others, leaving only a little baron named Marty. As the others left, they looked at Marty with jealousy: a little baron was even more fortunate to win the favor of His Royal Highness the prince than they did!
Although they are jealous in their hearts, these people have no choice, who makes this little baron do things neatly, often things that they can't do, but they can make each other do what is most in line with His Royal Highness the Prince!
"What's the news, that Luctina?" asked Pontulin as soon as they left, pulling Marty a little anxiously.
Marty smiled flatteringly and said, "Your Royal Highness, just tomorrow night, Lady Luctina will go to the Wind and Rain Concert Hall to listen to a magic concert...... There are only female companions in the whole box, and those female companions have been bought by our people!"
Prince Pondurin's hobby is the beautiful widow. And it must be cold and noble, the kind that guards like jade.
Meanwhile, at Barcelo's house, Countess Catherine looked at the beautiful lady in front of her and said, "Luctina, I'll see your show tomorrow night." As long as you succeed in fascinating that Highness and let him stay in the manor honestly and not cause trouble, after half a year, I promise you no less benefits!"
"Don't worry, ma'am. The beautiful Luktina blinked: "I don't dare to say anything else, but I am the best at deceiving men, is your request so-"
As she spoke, she saw that her face changed, revealing an expression of embarrassment and shame, very painful, but very beautiful, as noble and elegant as a sad white swan, and at the same time, a flush appeared on her face uncontrollably, and a tear slipped from the corner of her eye, as if it was a rose hit by the rain, which was thrillingly beautiful.
Even the well-informed Catherine was stunned by this trick, no wonder even if she married someone and died her husband before, she was still the first beauty recognized by all the noble men in Golden Deer City!
However, this woman first went to the royal palace of the Golden Deer City, and then was brought to the city of Zayo by Lord Moller, could it be that she had the audacity to go there before□□......
Luktina lowered her head in frustration: "Yes, I only failed in front of His Majesty and Lord Moller!"
Catherine looked at this woman speechlessly, she did such a thing and was not beaten away by His Majesty Rex, nor was she thrown out of the palace like garbage by Lord Moller, it was really ...... Good luck!
