Chapter 691: You should be stupid
The City of Gold.
Dawei entered the city in a stealthy state as always, and under the leadership of the NPC butler, he met Drummond.
"Hahaha, you're finally back, warrior!" As soon as they met, Drummond burst out laughing.
NPC was so enthusiastic that he was a little surprised, and it didn't take long to attack the route of the Styx, but he had a rush after several years.
He smiled and said, "Your Excellency, the city lord, live up to your trust. ”
"With the Stygian Route opened by the Warriors, we can send supplies to the Underworld in large quantities and expand our alliance camp. And the special resources of the underworld will also be our strategic reserves. "Drummond.
Burst!
Daweile, NPCs are going to do things at a pace, and they are all strategically reserved. He nervously asked, "Is our relationship with the Dwarven Empire stiff?" ”
"The Empire is speeding up the opening of land trade routes to the Golden City." Drummond said heavily.
It turned out that NPCs had increased their investment, no wonder the Winged Kender Chicken was in a hurry to jump out to make trouble, it should have some ideas.
He also didn't understand, if he opened the route, he would open the route, why the NPCs should be so nervous. This is a game, not a reality, and the opening of trade routes is equivalent to opening half of the gates of the Golden City.
In the game, the trade route is the trade route, and it is impossible to use it to transport troops, or to become an outpost of the big war, what are the NPCs afraid of? Than doing business? As a symbol of the entire Overworld, the City of Gold will be afraid to do business?
Drummond asked, "Warrior, why do you think the Empire suddenly decided to open up commerce?" ”
This is also something he doesn't understand, anyway, the Golden City is also the sphere of influence of the Dwarven Empire, although Drummond has a tendency to turn back on the Empire, but how much financial tax can the Golden City bring, the Dwarven Empire is stupid to drink ale, and has been letting it go.
Politically ambiguous, everyone knows what you are thinking, but no one will say it and tear your face, because the rules need to be maintained, which is a balance. Without this balance, the dwarven royal family will not lose face, and the dwarven empire and the golden city will not be able to fight if they want to.
"Why?" He asked.
Drummond said: "With the help of the warriors, the power of the Golden City is getting bigger and bigger, and the imperial side can't sit still. ”
Fight and dare not fight, that is forcing the rebellion, the continuous alliance of the Golden City, the power is getting bigger and bigger, the family business of the Dwarf Empire is there, under the elimination of one and the other, it is equivalent to the Dwarf Empire is constantly weakening, and the control of the Golden City is getting weaker and weaker, plus the promotion of the player, it is certain that you can't sit still.
"To open up commerce and trade is to control and plunder our economy." NPC Road.
Dawei was stunned, economic plunder and control, isn't that the invasion of soft power, there is no need for a large army to come to the city, a gentle way to cut meat with a soft knife, and slowly boil it in warm water. This kind of routine was not used in ancient China, and the expedition of the army to labor the people and lose money would generally use the invasion of commerce and trade to achieve the goal.
What you lack, we will sell, so that you lose the motivation to solve the problem by yourself, just buy and buy with us. Especially the livelihood necessities such as salt, tea, and cloth, the barbarians are not a big country in the Celestial Empire, the land is vast, and the resources for eating and drinking are extremely scarce. As long as it is broken and you do not have the strength to produce, it is too easy to cause chaos in a country.
Taking a step back, I don't want to do anything to you, it's just to earn your gold and silver, and trade is still good for strategy. I have a clear understanding of your people's vital economy, the geometry of the transportation of goods, and how much your finances are in a year, and I know your family's account books, and controlling the degree of trade is equivalent to controlling the finances, so that you don't have money to fight.
Besides, all your money has been earned by me, where will you get the money to fight?
"The players who push this task are playing a bit slippery!" He squinted his eyes and said, "In ancient times, they were all people who sought the country. ”
If the empire wants to be richer and more prosperous than the Golden City, what else can trade achieve? That's simpler, you're still a citizen under my rule, the route used to be blocked, but now you're connected, are you all on par with the empire?
There are so many that can be operated. Send you two deputy city lords or something, the previous regulations are null and void, all in accordance with the imperial regulations, disgusting or not? The empire doesn't want to fight, Drummond wants to fight. Either turn into a frog and be boiled, or raise troops to fight.
Then the empire would have a reason to use its national strength to seize Drummond's military power.
He asked, "So what are we going to do next?" ”
"It's time to talk to Sherlock." Drummond Road.
He nodded, rising to the national side, it is a matter between countries, and personal strength cannot change anything.
"That's a good dare, it's just used to urge the bosses to make money, hahaha." He laughed.
Drummond continued: "We need to speed up the delivery of the Stygian route. ”
Hehe.
The permission is in hand, brother doesn't care if you don't have the Stygian Sea, there are transfers and stations on the road, and you won't be tired to death after a trip. Everything else is easy to say, forget about it.
He said, "The important thing now is to determine which routes the mercenary guild I represent can obtain. ”
"I'll have someone else report to you."
Well, my brother will also send a special person to negotiate with your people, and the business ability of that harmony and calmness and angel peace is good.
After a brief discussion on the authority of the route, Dawei left the City Lord's Mansion and went to the Mercenary Guild in the teleportation array.
Landing in the war room, the limit of the shift is super saint, and the local tyrant boss was notified, and Dawei took the lead: "Send someone to the city lord's mansion and negotiate with the NPC about the specific route of 10% authority." ”
Chen Tuhao laughed, he was really afraid that the low-key brother would drag on this, after all, the matter of 120000000 gold coins was a little unpleasant.
"Another thing, Drummond has made it clear that he wants to join forces with Sherlock, and he also wants to produce results before they open up the trade route, which means that the bosses are thinking about the financial problem I mentioned before?"
Chen Tuhao was not hypocritical, and said: "Brother Low-key is also using the hands of NPCs to suppress us?" ”
Dawei was even more direct, and sent a screenshot of the conversation record with Drummond, he could understand the plan, how could Chen Tuhao not understand it.
"That's what happened, that's how it is, it's not that I'm alarmist, it's that the NPCs are aware that the situation is not good." He said lightly, "To be honest, if I get the money, I don't care about the rest of the matter, the bosses naturally have to worry about it, and there must be a way to solve it." ”
Chen Tuhao didn't speak, he continued: "But you have to be kind, and I will leave it alone if I take 300 million, that's not kind." ”
Bah!
Stinky and shameless, the money is so easy to take? said that you have to follow up on the follow-up, and it is not you who will come to prevent the installment payment. No matter how nice the words are, the money wants us to help you advance the task, and then buy projects from you and spend money to buy your own investment, why are you stupid?
"Then what do you think of the low-key brother." Chen Tuhao played a trick and kicked the ball back.
