Warlock Royal Family

() The twenty-step-wide isolation strip surrounding the entire city is a big project.

Although a large number of soldiers were invested, and many residents of Augsburg were organized to help, it took two days for the entire isolation zone to be completed, and then with the help of Anna, the Austrian army began to clean up one by one that might bring plague and epidemics. A terrible accumulation of sick feces, garbage and corpses. During this period, as expected, there were several incidents of Tarona's followers attacking the Austrian army. Of course, such attacks are meaningless to the serious army. .

Although the inhuman and ghostly things killed from the cesspit and garbage dump are visually shocking, they are very ordinary after they are really handed over.

Not to mention the powerful legendary druids and red-robed mages, even a small team of ordinary first-level warriors is more than enough to deal with such enemies as long as the officers are not too bad.

Moreover, these enemies are not all cancer mages. This kind of advancement belongs to Talon followers who have been tested and have completely distorted their minds. Only the purest and most thorough anti-human and anti-social can get such an "honour".

This is not difficult to understand. Not only is Tarona's assessment strict enough, but as long as she still has a little nostalgia for human civilization and her own life, who can be happy with sewage and garbage?

Of course, several genuine cancer mages were dug up and burned to ashes, which proved that there was indeed a dirty conspiracy brewing.Including Anna and Ye Fa'an, after participating in the killing of such an enemy, the officers and soldiers would repeatedly spray lime and then rinse.Although the plague is not that easy to spread, Ladislaus still provided this benefit considering the morale of officers and soldiers.

Anyway, the Textile Chamber of Commerce in Augsburg took the initiative to reimburse the relevant expenses.This is of course, the Austrian officers and soldiers really saved their lives, and these rich people are really afraid of the plague.

Many people of unknown origin were identified among the captives, not only followers of Tarona, but also followers of other evil gods and even demons.

Chaos and chaos always attract flies.

In the sewers of the city of Augsburg, the hateful enemies exuding a stench were also dug out. They got into the city from the sewage outlet on the Lech River. Before they had time to cause damage, according to the confession before they were executed.Augsburg's excellent sewage system was so efficient that they couldn't decide where to inject the poison to ensure the plague.

The local aristocratic families in Augsburg have generously donated a lot of military supplies to Ladislaus these days.

Of course, they are not as good as the Fugger family. Although the Textile Association is known as the Fugger family on the Europa continent, it is actually controlled by several big families, just like the Augsburg Parliament. The Geer family is only in a dominant position because of the largest shareholding and the big tree of the Habsburg family. In order to maintain this connection, of course they must give the most benefits to show their value.

The most valuable materials were sent by the Fugger family in the name of the Textile Association.After Ladislaus hinted at his intention to issue uniforms to his troops to distinguish them from the hooligan-clad mercenaries, he received a batch of gifts.

Because the interruption of trade caused by the uprising filled the warehouses of Augsburg with textiles, all the tailors and housewives in the city were organized, and Ladislaus was promised that each of the nearly a hundred Austrian officers would get an Austrian A military uniform made of the precious silk and linen blend fabric of Gersberg's special se.

Of course, although the value of this material is great, it is not a big burden for Augsburg.Anyway, many consignors who paid the deposit have been killed by the insurgents or participated in the uprising and were wiped out by the Austrian army.

Moreover, this material is not only a gift but also an advertisement. Augsburg is targeting a long-term clothing supply contract for [-] Austrian soldiers.

Similar to the trial products before the official purchase, Ladislaus certainly understands this promotion method, but he cannot accept the purchase of military supplies from foreign suppliers, although Augsburg is nominally a member of the Holy Roman Empire .But this contract can only be given to suppliers in Austria.

Ladislaus understood better than anyone that foreign businessmen could not obtain this fat piece of military supplies.Only for domestic businessmen, this can not only avoid the impact of military supply due to changes in diplomatic relations, but more importantly, it can promote the economy and benefit the long-term prosperity of the country.

Mercantilism is a more powerful force than the martial spirit. Although if all countries uphold mercantilism, it will be extremely detrimental to economic development, but the country that first develops mercantilism will still get great benefits.

How dare Ladislaus not learn from the lesson that the Spanish Empire never falls because it spends all the silver it seized in foreign countries and strengthens the development of foreign industries so that it eventually loses its hegemony.

Ladislaus directly pointed out this point to the old patriarch Fugger in private: "I am very grateful for the military uniforms provided by your association. However, while I am personally very grateful to the imperial municipality of Augsburg for its support of the Holy Roman Empire and the Warlock Royal Family over the years, I don't think the Austrian Council of State will agree."

"Why is this? The clothes produced in Augsburg are low in price and high in quality, which are very suitable for Austria's elite troops. Please be sure to explain this to the State Council." Old Fugger relied on his keen judgment and Rich experience uncovered Ladislaus's little trick.

"My State Council hopes to hand over as many military supplies contracts as possible to domestic suppliers. You know all the big nobles want those contracts." Ladislaus's "honesty" made Old Fugger Hall is even more convinced that the problem is not with Parliament but with him.

"You mean to relocate the Textile Association of Augsburg to Austria, so that you would consider giving us this contract?" This is not an easy matter.

"No, no, no, only if the Textile Association organizes production in Austria, I can make the members of the Austrian State Council have nothing to say, you know, I am just a humble servant of the state." Ladislaus not only wants to embezzle The most important textile industry in this era also wants the Fugger family to benefit itself.

But his secondary goal was unattainable.

Although the old Fugger was rich in intelligence, he still didn't know much about how the Austrian power system works, the most incomprehensible intelligence. For Ladislaus, relying on the attack on the local Cyric forces, he established a stronger army than Ferdinand's proxy era. He still doesn't understand the fact of the royal power, but as the most cunning old fox in the mall, he still instinctively feels that Ladislaus' statement is untrue.

The well-informed old patriarch knows how the politics of all imperial free cities work. The weak mayor likes to say that the rejection of the council is his own rejection, and the strong mayor likes to say that his rejection is the rejection of the council.

"Show what you can do, show what you can't do, and show what you can't use." Although he never had the opportunity to get his grandson's teaching, but through his years of summarization, Patriarch Fugger also understands this truth.

Ladislaus's little trick didn't work, but his big goal can still be achieved. Compared with the mere city of Augsburg, the Grand Duchy of Austria is too powerful.

"The Textile Association has been operating in Augsburg for several generations. Even if there is a big contract like the Austrian military uniform, I can't persuade the shareholders to make such a relocation." Sluth's gimmick.

Hearing the same statement from the other party, Ladislaus realized that he could not win a big victory, but the lack of security exposed by Augsburg in this uprising still made him very convincing: "Shareholders You will like the capital of Austria. No army can threaten the headquarters of the Habsburg Empire. Besides, I am not asking for more than [-] textile workers to move to Austria at once. At present, a small branch can be established in Wiener Neustadt Well, let’s start with the supply of military uniforms for the Austrian army. After Vienna has built a trade center, you can purchase cheaper raw materials from there, and the location of Vienna is not only suitable for radiating Germany, you can do business through the Danube River to Hungary, and even to the coast of the Black Sea."

This blueprint finally made the old Fugger slightly tempted. The Fugger family already has too much and wants to go up to the next level, it is impossible to rely on old-fashioned.

Looking at the light in Old Fugger's eyes, Ladislaus knew that he had successfully added another brick to the construction of the Vienna Trade Center.

Although he knows better than anyone, it is not that no one dares to threaten Vienna.

However, it is impossible for Ladislaus to tell anyone about the martial arts and glory of Suleiman the Great in advance. The Kingdom of Hungary and the Ottoman Empire have been fighting for hundreds of years. Haven't they been in contact with each other? Who would want Suleiman the Great to be here? In the near future, a thunderous blow will be launched, which will not only completely break the balance of Central Europe, but also force Vienna to make the whole of Europe fear and tremble.

Vienna is about to face a real test. The Ottoman Empire will put all the power of the continental empire on the head of the emerging Habsburg empire. Hope his land can't be sold, he still has to attract more people to Vienna to prosper his economy.

"Your Excellency the Patriarch, Your Excellency Anton Fugger has served His Majesty Ferdinand for many years and has achieved remarkable results. I admire him very much, and I admire you for cultivating such a character. I suggest that you visit Vienna once every day, in addition to In addition to finding a piece of land for your Textile Association, I have another position I want to offer you."

Ladislaus made up his mind to pull the Fugger family into his chariot. Although the Kingdom of Spain is very powerful, they are closer to Austria after all. Although the silver in Tyrol is not as large as that in the New World, it has recently For decades, there is still irreplaceable geographical convenience.

The Europa payment ability of the Fugger Textile Association is very dependent on the stable supply of silver in the Tyrol region, so Ladislaus can ask for more services and support through this relationship. too close.
