Chapter 405: Your children are so old
Zora slowly raised her head, her gaze wandering slightly between Leah's face and the pistol in her hand.
The barrel seems to be made of a special material, and it is carved with strange and delicate red lines, snaking through it like blood.
At the grip, the frosted grip is carved with a deep black rose, revealing a hint of mystery and nobility.
Her thoughts went blank briefly, and her eyes were filled with an unbelievable glow.
What the hell is this little thing? Is it magic?
She didn't even see it clearly, and in just an instant, the wall was shattered by her.
Feeling the slight recoil from his arm, Zora still feels like a dream until now.
Just now Victor's fiancée said this thing is called, "gun"?
She really didn't see why it was called a gun.
At this moment, Lia pointed to the gadget in her hand and explained with a gentle smile on her face.
"What you have in your hand, in my understanding, should be called the Magic Engine Assembly Propulsion Launcher."
In simple terms, a black projectile is packed in this launcher called a pistol.
And the stored natural magic is used as kinetic energy, which is pushed and launched.
The power generated is enough to blow down a wall.
"This is the first generation of our family's production."
This was after the firearm that was acquired in the hands of the Reeser family. After a series of assembly improvements.
Eventually, it became a product of the Klevenner family.
The first generation?
Hearing Leah's words, Zora's body couldn't help but tremble.
She immediately reflected on the value of this.
Because she noticed what Leah said.
It's not a standalone magic item, or some kind of weapon that's hard to craft.
It's a "product".
As long as it is a product, then it is possible to have mass production capacity.
And this small weapon, its power is obvious to all.
And it's a great fit for the Chamber of Commerce.
Putting aside everything else, in fact, there are many big names in the Casidra Chamber of Commerce, and they are all ordinary people.
Maybe it's because of their own talent for making money and their own talent for fighting.
Or maybe it's God's curse when he left.
All in all, a lot of rich people in the Casidra Chamber of Commerce, they don't have the power themselves.
So these rich people need to spend more money to hire some strong people to serve as their guards and ensure their personal safety.
In fact, this is what the Chamber of Commerce intended.
Why should Victor join the Casidra Chamber of Commerce?
For now, the power that Victor has shown is definitely a world-level mage.
If such a mage joins the Casidra Chamber of Commerce, even if it is only in name, it will deter those enemies of the Casidra Chamber of Commerce.
And the Casidra Chamber of Commerce has not forgotten from beginning to end.
At that time, the threat of God made everyone think that this was not just a simple joke.
If you want to fight the gods, you must have strength.
And the one who has the best chance of confronting the gods right now.
They can only pin their hopes on Victor.
Meanwhile, Zola came to her senses.
As Leah puts it, the deal is essentially a reciprocity for both parties.
In order for Victor, and indeed the entire Klevenna family, to join the Casidra Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber of Commerce must provide a corresponding return.
Again, what is the value of the Kravenna family, and what can they bring to the Chamber of Commerce?
Obviously, it was the weapon in her hand, called the "pistol".
A small weapon for self-defense.
It's easy to use, but it's not that powerful.
And by surprise, no one will defend against this weapon.
Very easy to use.
This is a unique bargaining chip in the hands of the Cravina family.
However, when Leah showed her stake, the Chamber of Commerce almost had to consider including the Cravina family.
Therefore, they may have to pay more than originally thought.
Zola narrowed her eyes slightly, and asked curiously and tentatively:
"Miss Leah, can this weapon really meet the standards of mass production?"
Leah smiled softly, crossed her legs, gently placed one hand in front of her abdomen, and gracefully picked up the teacup with the other, and took a sip slowly.
When Zola raised the issue, it meant that her negotiations with the Chamber of Commerce had gradually moved in a favorable direction.
"Miss Zola, we'd love to tell you that this weapon can be mass-produced, but ......"
She smiled helplessly.
"Because of the materials, and because of the engineers, we don't have enough capacity."
"Every day, I can only make dozens of handfuls."
The number of dozens is already a lot.
But if the weapon is really going to be sold as a commodity......
Leah seemed to see through Zola's thoughts, and said lightly:
"I'm sorry, Miss Zola. I can understand your thoughts. ”
"But even if we can produce it in large quantities, we don't plan to sell it to the outside world."
Zola was slightly stunned, and before her brain could begin to think about the pros and cons, Leah continued:
"You need to know that the one in our family is a member of the Mage Council."
The Council of Mages has always been known for its high standards of justice and morality.
But don't forget, even the goddess of justice has appeared in the capital of mages.
Zola thought for a moment, and understood a little, but he didn't fully understand what Ria meant.
So, Leah gave her a simple explanation:
"Once this weapon is on sale, everyone can get their hands on it, regardless of class or intention."
"The lords have weapons, and their rule will be more secure, but that is based on violence."
Indeed, whoever disobeys will be shot.
Bullets are much cheaper than hiring guards.
"And when the enemy has a weapon, he will only think about which enemy to attack first the next day."
For civilians without strength, this weapon is extremely deadly.
The weapon has no eyes, not to mention that such a gun only needs to pull the trigger. to shoot a person from a very long distance.
"If everybody has a gun, it's going to be more chaotic."
Just because everyone has a weapon doesn't mean everyone doesn't have a weapon.
Ordinary people who don't have supernatural power have acquired weapons that can kill supernatural people.
What will they do?
The human mind cannot be guessed, just like a dog without a leash.
You say it doesn't bite, will it really not bite?
So often only dogs with a leash and a muzzle tied are the safest.
By the same token, this weapon must not be in the hands of civilians and lords.
To put it simply, it should never be sold publicly.
"We don't want to throw a village or a city into chaos because of our weapons."
"There are many money-grubbers in the world, but we don't do such things for money."
With that, Leah gently placed the teacup on the mahogany coffee table.
Seeing that her brain was blank and she couldn't say a word, Zora smiled slightly.
"I hope you understand, but if we do join the Chamber of Commerce, these weapons may appear among the top echelons of the Chamber of Commerce."
"As a little gift to protect yourself, I think it's perfect for that."
Zola came back to her senses and finally understood what Ria meant.
They don't sell such weapons, but they are willing to give them to big people who need to protect themselves for free.
However, will this weapon really be gratuitous?
But don't forget, this kind of weapon is only owned by the Kravina family.
And Leah just said that this is only the first generation of products.
In the future, there will be a second generation, a third generation.
The big guys, even if they don't need Victor's protection.
After experiencing the security that this weapon brings, they will inevitably move closer to the Kravenna family and develop friendly with them.
As long as no one else is able to develop such a weapon.
The Kravenna family completed the monopoly.
And maybe someone has already developed a second or third generation.
What I'm seeing so far is what Leah wants her to see.
Speaking of which, in fact, whether the Clevina family can join the Chamber of Commerce or not is no longer up to her Zola.
She lowered her head and looked at the delicate but powerful pistol in her hand.
As long as this little pistol shows up at the homes of the big guys that night.
Early the next morning, they all had to beg Clavenna to join the Cascipera Chamber of Commerce.
Zora was completely pinched.
She couldn't imagine that the woman in front of her, who seemed to be almost the same age as her, actually crushed her in just a few words.
even made her heart move.
Zora endured the feeling in her heart, her palms trembling.
Fearing that the pistol would suddenly go off the rails, he put it on the table.
Then he raised his head and said solemnly to Liya.
"Miss Leah, I need to ask my father, President Nannard, about this."
"I think I'll need to stay in the Empire for a few days, and then we should need to talk about it in more detail."
With that, she was about to leave.
Because her current rank is too high, she has been led by the nose by Liya.
She was completely out of control on her own.
If she continued like this, she was afraid that she would have to give the entire Chamber of Commerce to Klevenna.
But Liya didn't want to let her go, covered her mouth and chuckled, and said with a smile in her eyes:
"In that case, why don't you go to Breston for a few days?"
"You know, it's our Kravenna's territory, and it's the only foreign surname territory allowed in the entire empire."
"I meant to talk to you in Breston in detail, but I didn't expect you to come so quickly, and it just so happens that we need to go back to Breston too, and we can be together."
Zola thought, after all, Bladstone was so far away from the royal capital, and just thought that he would say no, and he would visit in a few days.
But Leah suddenly shouted upstairs.
"Victor!"
Zora's heart trembled fiercely.
The tone was unceremonious, as if she were at home.
Her mother gave orders to her majestic father in the same way!
It's definitely a tone that can only be achieved between intimate partners.
It's no wonder, after all, Victor is even willing to let the woman in front of him manage everything in the house, they must be very affectionate between them!
Thinking of this, her eyes looked expectantly at the stairs upstairs.
Until the moment the familiar black trench coat appeared, Zora was suddenly stunned.
The grim man was holding a sleeping girl.
The girl looked young and small, with one head resting on Victor's shoulder, and her face could not be seen clearly.
It just feels like the ears are long and pointy, but they look like humans.
But at that moment, maybe it was suppressed to the limit when Liya led her nose.
Her brain was completely down, and she didn't have the slightest thought to say:
"Are your children already so old!?"
Leah: "? ”
