"Alright, let's get down to business," Hutu Emma put the water glass in her hand on the table, and looked at the fat man with a confused gaze, "I don't believe that Your Excellency came to visit at such a night, not just to listen to the complaints of a down-and-out old man, let alone an old man with a very bad reputation."

The fat man pretended to be indifferent, shrugged his shoulders, spread his hand and said, "No, in my impression, your reputation has always been very good, and everything sold from your hand is of guaranteed quality, and there will be no accidental explosions or anything like that."

"What do you mean by that?"

Hearing the fat man's words, Hutu Emma's face changed slightly, and a sharp gaze shot out of her slightly narrowed pupils, as long as the people of Parabun knew the big event that made Talmezi discredited, the young man in front of him said it at this time, no matter how it sounded, it was ironic

But Hutu Emma still chose to forbear, from the fat man's extraordinary bearing and conversation, he firmly believed that he must have seen this young man, but he couldn't remember that it was there, this depression was like a thorn stuck in the throat, making people not vomit and unhappy, if it weren't for seeing that the fat man really looked like a big customer, Talmezi would have ordered the eviction of the guest a long time ago

Looking at the black lines on Hutu Emma's face, the fat man pretended not to see it, raised his head leisurely, and carefully looked at the room of the continent's No. 1 alchemist for the first time. ，

A pungent smell wafted through the air. All kinds of ancient books are piled up, neatly arranged on the ancient lacquered bookcases around them, and the bookcases are spotlessly clean.

"I want to talk to you about a business, if I want to hire you to work for me, I don't know what price it will cost?" the fat man stood up with a leisurely expression, stretched out two fingers and slid along the edge of the desk, as if thinking about something

On the desk of Nuoda, all kinds of documents are also piled up in an orderly manner, and the quill hanging upside down on the pen stand is also white and spotless, as if they have not been used at all.

A scribbled sketch was placed on the table at random, the blue lines drew a circular frame, which looked like some kind of mechanical drawing, the fat man's eyes paused on it, looking a little surprised, this turned out to be a pattern of knight's armor, but this knight's armor is a little different from the common knight's armor, the design on this drawing, there seems to be something hanging on the chest of the armor

"You're going to hire me" Hutu Emma's eyes bulged, let out a burst of laughter, his wrinkled old face was almost flattened, and he shook his head a little smugly, "How is it possible, you must know that I am the commander of the Ryordian, have you ever seen a hired captain?" Your Excellency does not want to be humorous at all when you make such a joke, if it reaches the ears of the Kingdom Military Department, it will still cause unnecessary trouble, for the sake of Your Excellency's sincerity, I will not report it to the top this time, but if there is a next time, I dare not guarantee it"

"I'm not kidding" The fat man shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly at Hutu Emma's denial, and in front of Hutu Emma's surprised gaze, he took out a golden business alliance promissory note from his arms,

The sides of the ticket were embroidered with gold thread, and at first glance it was not an ordinary product, and looking at the golden promissory note placed on the table, Hutu Emma's old laughter came to an abrupt end. The expression on his face suddenly became heavy

"It's ...... 100,000 Golden Tickets for the Business Alliance?" Hutu Emma's eyes were bloodshot red, and she said in disbelief

"Yes, Your Excellency should know about this thing," the fat man said with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth, "I have always believed that everything in this world has its equivalent value, I wonder if Your Excellency agrees with such a point of view?"

Hutu Emma, who was opposite "Gollum", stared at the gold promissory note on the table, and at the same time swallowed a mouthful of saliva with great difficulty, and said with some slurred words, "Your opinion is too one-sided, this ...... These are the ...... that don't impress me."

"Really?". The fat man looked at Hutu Emma who was snorting in his nose opposite, and slowly took out a 100,000 gold promissory note from his arms and put it away, "If Your Excellency thinks so, it can only mean that this thing does not represent Your Excellency's value."

"Slap" with a crisp sound on the table with the gold promissory note,,

Hutu Emma's heavy breathing sound was almost like a bellows pulling, and it could be seen that in front of the 200,000 gold promissory note that was no more than an stretch of his hand away, Hutu Emma's face looked like a person who had been hungry for more than ten days, suddenly facing this sumptuous royal feast, but he still had to endure the sadness of being hungry and saying that he was full

"This ...... These can't buy me" Hutu Emma gritted her teeth, as if she was fighting the enemy on the battlefield, and her voice almost seemed to erupt from her nose, completely like unconscious self-talk

He'd seen such a thing as a gold promissory note before, but he had only seen it.

The promissory note of 100,000 gold coins can't make up such a fortune even when he is the richest, alchemists are a group of famous losers, and the materials needed for development are not only weird, but also very rare, and a great alchemist like Talmezi must also develop some fancy things to subsidize the family, and other people can imagine it,

What's more, at this moment of scarcity, even if you have the gold coins that are common to the kingdom in your hand, it is difficult to buy the items you need, but the gold promissory notes sold by this kind of commercial alliance can be traded through the internal transactions of the business alliance, and you can obtain all kinds of urgently needed items that cannot be obtained at a relatively cheap price.

As far as the 200,000 gold promissory note in front of us is concerned, if it is converted into the most scarce grain now, the value it represents will increase by at least 50 percent.

This is simply an unimaginable wealth for Hutu Emma, who is almost destitute and reduced to relying on ** medicine

"What, do you still need to think about it?".

The fat man looked at Hutu Emma, who gritted his teeth on the other side, and wanted to grab it directly, stretched out his hand and gently moved the two 100,000 gold promissory notes in the direction of Hutu Emma, and said with a very serious expression

"As the No. 1 alchemist in the mainland, Your Excellency's value is not just these gold coins, this is just some deposits, if Your Excellency agrees, I am willing to pay 400,000 gold coins to hire you for 5 years, that is to say, you can get 80,000 gold coins every year, and I will be fully responsible for the materials you need for research."

"400,000 Gold Coins"

Hutu Emma gasped, her mouth was wide open in surprise, her eyes were bulging, and her stretched neck was like a goose in the kitchen that was pinched by a fat cook, and this time he was indeed shocked,

What is the concept of 400,000 gold coins? Even in the heyday of Rui Erdian, the military expenses of a regular army were only this amount a year, and if it weren't for the fact that he already had 200,000 gold promissory notes there, he must have thought that either the other party was crazy or he was crazy, and the price of 400,000 for five years, even if the other party wanted to make his own explosive bombs, I am afraid that he would not be so generous

"Well, I agree to the deal"

Under the powerful golden bullet offensive, Hutu Emma completely abandoned the principle and chose to compromise, if he refused such a price, he would be a big fool,

He gritted his teeth, hesitated for a moment and said, "But there is a problem I must explain, although I have been suspended, I am still a member of the military department of the kingdom, if there is any trouble caused by this, the conditions we negotiated cannot be changed."

"Of course, I've always been very trustworthy" The fat man agreed sincerely, but in fact, he pouted secretly in his heart, Rui Erdian Military Affairs Department, does it have anything to do with me?

"May I ask, what exactly did you hire me for?" asked Hutu Emma cautiously as he put the two gold promissory notes in his arms, extremely careful, and even in a hurry

"I heard that your son is working on a small explosive bomb that can be carried," the fat man was silent for a moment, deciding to tell Hutu Emma his intentions

"In fact, we are also developing this kind of thing, but unfortunately, because of some technical shortcomings, although we have completed some reduction, we can't get as much power as a burst bomb, so we can only come to your excellency for help, I believe that in your hands, you should have some relevant know-how."

"You...... You've developed a portable weapon similar to a burst bomb" Hutu Emma's face turned cold and ugly, even a hint of gray,

Bursting bombs are his unique distribution, and in order to constantly improve this recipe and create a weapon that can be accepted by everyone,

He almost exhausted his life's work, but even so, he did not complete the improvement of the explosive bomb weighing more than a dozen catties into a weapon that can be thrown by human hands.

Therefore, this similar conjecture about his own son is completely a kind of conjecture that he has completely turned his nose up, and now someone has told him that he really has such a weapon to save zài, how not to let his mind be hit

"Tomorrow, I will send someone to pick up the two of them, and it has been arranged, as long as the two of them board the carriage, they will arrive safely" The fat man looked at Hutu Emma's surprised gaze and the somewhat rickety old figure, knew that it was time for him to go, stood up and saluted Hutu Emma solemnly,

"Slow"

As the fat man was about to step out of the door, Hutu Emma's somewhat desolate voice came from behind, "Can I know who I'm working for?

The fat man blinked, and there was a silent sadness in his heart,

He could hear the resentment and frustration in Hutu Emma's heart, he had studied something that he had not completed all his life, and in the end he could only make wedding dresses for others, and anyone would have some psychological imbalance, which could not only be bought for 400,000 gold coins

This is the sadness of this era, these pioneers who have advanced knowledge are denied alternatives in the eyes of most people, so they can only move forward silently alone in the dark, using their lives or blood to promote the continuation of the weak light of civilization.

"We saw it last April, on a slope in Dehrim, if you remember the Falcon banner," the fat man walked out of the door without looking back, and his figure disappeared into the darkness in the distance. Leaving Hutu Emma with a pensive face

"In April, Dehrim's slopes, the Falcon Battle Banner" Hutu Emma's face turned pale as he whispered, and a wry smile appeared on his face. yes, who but he would be interested in such a thing.
