Chapter 307: The Covenant?
Outside the side door of the main hall of the royal palace......
Several young men and women sneaked their heads out of the doorway.
"Don't squeeze me. ”
"You won't let me see ......"
Crowded at the door were three men and two women, all of whom were not very old...... But the dress is very luxurious, and even if the guard next to him sees it, he treats it as if he didn't see it.
It is estimated that the only people who can walk freely in the palace and mess around at will are members of the royal family, who dares to offend.
The guards had long been accustomed to this attitude of turning a blind eye and continued to look ahead.
Suddenly, the two people who came over attracted attention, and a group of guards hurriedly bowed their heads and greeted: "Your Royal Highness." ”
"Hmm. ”
"What are you guys doing?"
Stopped by a voice behind them, the five children only then turned around.
"Grandpa Philip~"
The person who came over was none other than Prince Philip of the southern part of the empire, and the royal family was flourishing, and these little guys in front of him were the youngest generation in the area, and he was the king's uncle, so it was no problem for them to call themselves grandfather.
"What are you looking at?"
Philip crouched down and asked a little girl about ten years old.
"We're looking at the female commander from Jagon, I've heard a lot of palace guards say she's very powerful......" The little girl spoke with a milky voice, and the female commander from Jagon should be talking about Mel Susa.
Philip glanced at the wizard Esher who was following him.
For the female commander who came from the depths of the desert, the two have met a few times, and their ability is indeed very strong.
At least in Ai Xiu's mouth, he said that he might not be able to resist the other party's blow with all his strength...... You must know that Ai Xiu can order the 11th level of the person, and they all said this.
Then this woman is too powerful!
"But she's angry now, that Count Sean Wiggle is actually in conflict with her!"
Sean Wigel?
This name is all too familiar to both Prince Philip and Ai Xiu, a good apprentice is always nagging about him in his ear, and the other is that the wizarding organization that has been cultivated so hard is actually mixed with an inexplicable person!
"He's here too?" said Prince Philip.
"Hmm~ It seems that the southern lords are here. The little girl pointed to the inside of the hall and said.
The door is half-hidden, and you can see a lot of things up close.
..............................
"What do you mean!" Mel Susa looked at Sean coldly.
"It's just to be honest, the money that can be scraped together in southern Bashalam today is very limited, and if His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief wants to, of course we will find a way to give it...... It's just a bit of a hassle. Sean said, looking at each other.
Overhead is the state of [Temptation!].
In other words, this woman is testing herself? Fortunately, she is not angry, otherwise Sean would not dare to say these words.
"What's the trouble. ”
"We don't have the money, so we have to spend time trying to scrape it together...... Of course, the Empire has a lot of valuable things. Ores or industrial products, gold and jewelry, these can be exchanged for money, and if the commander wants it, he can take it back. Sean said.
In fact, when talking about so much money, Sean has been wondering how they should transport it back.
I haven't seen how big the cow is myself, but the six million of the 13 lords add up to 78 million gold coins, and if you add a little more, it will be hundreds of millions.
He had never had so much money in his Oro City vault, but hundreds of millions of gold coins were piled up to the size of a small mountain.
Riding across the desert?
It is estimated that a lot of yellow sand will be buried on the road.
Sometimes Sean even wondered if the money they had calculated made up for the amount they might have lost along the way.
But gold coins aside, if you exchange it for equivalent ore or other resources, even the Split-Hoof Ox probably won't be able to leave.
"That's your business, not mine. "Mel Susa's head appeared in a state of [Thinking!] and [Calculating!].
But after a while, it was changed to [Irritation!]......
I can't figure it out!
Don't talk about it...... I can't even figure out Lao Tzu, and now that prices are soaring, I don't know how many things that money can buy.
"I'm just doing what the Sun King asks, and the rest is out of my mind......" Mel Susa changed to a topic that almost no one could refute.
"That's not necessarily the case, the price of the Basalan Empire has skyrocketed due to the war, even if you take the money you want, it is estimated that you will not be able to buy much things, it is better to take a little more practical. Sean said.
The two countries belong to different regions, and their currencies are different.
On weekdays, Bashalam's currency can be exchanged with traveling merchants in the Aidak region...... After all, they would often visit the two places, and they could make a lot of money by charging a part of the price difference in between, but now prices are rising because of the war.
In fact, it seems useless to take so much money.
As he said this, King Simon suddenly looked at the ministers below, and a few of them really nodded to indicate that this was the case.
In fact, someone has said it before...... It's just that King Simon at that time was bent on waiting for the arrival of the southern lord and said to Mel Susa in person, so he didn't care, and now that I think about it, it seems to be such a reason.
It seems that the money of the Basharan Empire could not buy anything of equal value in the past.
But
In the past, it was usually said that when money was given, it was an equivalent transaction, and there would be someone to solve these things, and there was no need to worry about it.
Wait a minute......
At this time, a few officials reacted, maybe this good-looking female commander didn't understand these things at all!
It's just that no one dared to say it before.
"I mean, of course, gold. ”
"That's why the empire doesn't have so much gold, so the commander needs to consider taking something of the same value together. Sean replied.
Belch......
At this time, several nobles did not react, and they specially asked the ministers who knew about it.
Melsusa looked seriously at the young earl in front of her.
"Love playing with words, Count Vigel. It's okay, I can wait~ until you give me all the money...... Or you can choose another way, such as defeating me, and I can forgive you some money. ”
Finally, Sean has succeeded in off the highest-ranking person he has seen so far!
looked at each other's cold expressions.
"The commander is joking, you are such a high level, I am just a small character, why take it so seriously!"
"Either go and scrape together the money, or just fight with me, and I can relieve you of some of the pressure. ”
It seems that the other party really wants to beat himself up!
"No, I can't beat you. ”
"Well, I don't use any weapons, you can use anything...... And I'll let you get a few hands. Melsusa said.
"Aren't you bullying me as a scholar!"
"Otherwise, if you agree, I can ask for 1 million gold coins per person......"
When he said this, several surrounding lords suddenly looked at the two of them, and this sentence was as exciting as a life-saving straw.
"That's not going to work either. ”
"Or I'll let my men go out ......"
"No way!"
"At least 2 million. ”
"Deal!"
A group of nobles in the main hall were stunned, and there were still people who bargained for the covenant.
