Old Sword Master

The Imperial Family’s banquet for Wood and Little Bazin just ended, and the contents of the banquet were scattered to the aristocratic mansions around the Imperial Palace.

The first to get the news was Florentino Deputy Director. Of course it was not eavesdropping on the emperor’s secrets, nor did he know it through Boruda Chief Manger. Boruda Chief Manger’s mouth can be strict, of course, even if it is not strict, it is impossible to tell coveted. Florentino Deputy Director who works with him.

“Where did you get this?”

The former Chief Manger Florentino looked at the sliver in his hand with Soul Fire burning eyes.

He is now just an old man at home, except for occasionally taking a few plane adventures for the family, that is, hiding in the room to repair his body.

Now his eyes are 2 balls of flames, his body also loses part of his muscles from time to time, and his nose exudes an aura of death. He is a necromantic Knight just like Cassano Knight, who had ventured with Wood.

“It’s little Bazin’s letter paper.” Florentino Deputy Director added, “I picked it up.”

Stealing things in the Imperial Palace is a big crime. Florentino father and son must make it clear even if they hide in their own secret room.

“What is Boruda doing? How can you let the Emperor Your Majesty’s guests throw such important things in the Imperial Palace.” The former Chief Manger said pretendingly, “It’s too shameful, you youngsters, really Much worse than us.”

“Yes, yes, we have to work hard.” Florentino Deputy Director has many good friends left by his father in the Imperial Palace, so it is easy to hear all kinds of gossip and pick up all kinds of confidential documents Of course, they are all transcripts. Smart mage can write down the key content in shorthand with a few glances, and then rewrite it silently.

“You can’t be the same as Chief Manger in the future. Must tie the fence tight.” Old Florentino is obviously still a bit dissatisfied with the loss of public office, but this is no way. Summon has no mind and undying creatures. Dark Sun doctrine permits, but the church does not allow it to be transformed into undying creatures with a mind. The emperor and Florentino Chief Manger have a lot of face, so he can still be turned into it. , He can no longer hold any government office, and he must act in a low-key manner. Most of the senior leaders of the Roman Church think he is permanent in other planes.

“Want to issue 1,000,000 taler’s national debt? This is a lot, but a number that can be raised.”

“3% interest? Who came up with this, you might as well just not give it. Isn’t it the same as nothing, pay back the principal after ten years?”

“Putting the income of the heart of Neil Tudor as collateral? Is this… fooling people?”

Old Florentino read the letter from young Bazin and thought Wood was a bit whimsical. He asked his son, “This content is reliable?”

“It should be reliable. Queen Your Majesty has already begun to make a purchase plan, and is ready to use this 1,000,000 taler to purchase a new batch of tranquilizers and adventure equipment.” Compared with borrowing money, making a purchase plan is much simpler, Floren Tino Deputy Director said, “It is estimated that several companies will receive intention orders tomorrow morning. If you mess around, wouldn’t it be a joke? Wood also plans to sell the positions of his teammates, the core Peak’s old mage hundred thousand one, guarantee Reach the town.”

“This kid is really arrogant to the extreme. He thinks it’s so easy to protect a core mage?” Florentino Chief Manger was very disapproving. “How many core mages died in the well of 5 color? The sub-planes that have been conquered died during the development process, and the sub-planes that have not been conquered will only land much more.”

All countries have insufficient high-level mage. Spain is slightly stronger, but it also has its own bad luck mine.

The old Florentino used to be a protector of the country, and became the core of the necromantic Knight. The plane resistance is between the elite and the core. However, in the plane adventure, he can also say that he can handle all This kind of problem, but mage really dare not say that it can be protected. Every time I go out with elite mage, everyone is under pressure.

He has also been to the “Fireless Furnace” recently. Although he did not cause any major damage to the rule of the ancient demons and the gains were limited, he finally brought back the mage hired by his family and got some Kucha insects. Some gems.

“The letter says that Wood-Lombard has taken out a ruby ​​sword blank that is one meter long, which can be processed into a town-state weapon. It seems that it is still necessary to fool the gems and Earth Element that others think are in the flameless furnace.” Old Floren Tino is also interested in such weapons, but he is really not optimistic about the development of the “No-Fire Furnace”, either with any malice, or he is not optimistic about it from the perspective of reason, “If there is really a 500,000 Tale adventure in the place where the Fire-Free Furnace can really be. The subsidy means you can barely go.”

This is why Wood asked the emperor to issue treasury bonds. The Spanish plane adventurer has mastered a lot of first-hand information this time.

Next, just relying on empty words will not work, and get the allowance.

“Then we shouldn’t take the initiative to buy national debt?” Florentino Deputy Director wants to please the emperor, but it can’t spend a few 10000 talers to please.

“If the emperor insists on going his own way, just buy a 1000 800 meaning.” Old Florentino added another important point, “but you still have to stare at the Ruby sword blank of Wood. A good weapon is a plane adventure. The most important thing.”

“Father, that thing is precious.” Florentino Deputy Director felt a pain.

“What is expensive? Don’t our family have shares in the treasure fleet?” With the Jinshan Yinhai of the New World, our Spanish nobles will lose!

…

The same thing happened to several other Spanish nobles, but it was not through the letter of the little Bazin, but the Queen Your Majesty and Anna Princess separately preheated the national debt through the wife’s route.

But for the little Sant Pedo, Anna Princess went straight.

“Princess told me that this national debt issuance is very sure. Invest early and you can buy it. If you are too late, you will lose the opportunity to gain territory in the fireless furnace.” The words of the young Sant Pedo made the old duke and Quadira Mage is very disdainful. The 3% interest is useless. “There is also the risk of recruiting core mage. Although the cost of hundred thousand talers is a bit more expensive, it will be refunded if you die, so it is not bad. There are no such good conditions.”

“This kid really can blow.” Quadira was really furious. “We mage want him to protect and give him hundreds of thousands of talers?! The money is refunded after death? I ah, it’s impossible. If there is mage, he will be deceived, and those who will be deceived will not be the core mage at all!”

Quadira is the core mage, but he is not Peak, and he can’t get a hundred thousand talers. Mages are relatively rich, but not everyone can take out a hundred thousand talers. Anyway, Quadira is I can’t make up all the belongings.

The Duke of Sant Pedo looked at Quadira and didn’t say anything. If it was his nephew, he could grit his teeth and get a 2 taler out to subsidize it, but the hired mage would be impossible.

“Grandfather, I still have to buy some national debt.” Little Sant Pedo said, “Developing a fireless furnace is a good thing for everyone.”

“Well, let’s buy one for 3000. No matter how much money we have, the pressure on our family’s funds will be too great.” The Duke of Sant Pedo was not interested.

…

Under the cover of the dark night, Wood is looking for a partner for his business. There are not many people who can fight evil spirits with him. There are not many people who can take happiness. Only those who have the most glorious resumes and have established extraordinary careers are qualified. Cortez is considered one. .

The second choice is the New World and Dark Sun Church in Rome. Pizarro and Loyola are not as a last resort. Wood does not want to cooperate with Pizarro, although the latter’s resume is also very convincing and geographically different. Convenience is second, but he is obviously operating the New World. It is impossible to invest a few hundred thousand funds to the next level. As for moral cruelty and brutality, it is not worth mentioning. The sword is in hand, and Wood does not examine this.

And Loyola can definitely get the investment of the Church of Rome, but…it’s not that there are secrets that can’t be told, no, Wood just doesn’t like to be teammates with this person, um, that’s it.

But the response of the Marquis Marina Lie was not particularly positive. She thought Wood was just looking for a lead investor for the Spanish national debt she needed.

Maybe it’s not particularly positive. A more accurate statement is very bad. The moment Wood made the offer, the Marquise of Marina Li was a bit unreal. The 300,000 taler’s gold was almost 2 pounds, and Wood was on his back. I can barely walk, if it can be submerged by silver, is this really a village Swordsman from Crete, not a very intelligent and powerful plane adventurer that she had guessed.

“Your Excellency Wood, I fully believe that the ruby ​​in your hand is an incomparable treasure, but 300,000 talers are impossible.” Marina Li said that here is still restrained, but later it is not so polite, “just like nothing The melting pot is not really everywhere (奶nǎi) and honey, nor is it in New World.”

Her estimate of Wood’s ruby ​​sword blank is 50000 talers. If there is competition, she can give it from 60000 5 to 70000, and more will be impossible.

Rubies that can be used as casting materials are barely considered semi-hard currency, but such a large piece of ruby ​​is impossible to disassemble and use. This is naturally the foundation of a national weapon, which greatly makes the value of the sword blank surpass the same size. There are many broken rubies, but they also have a lot of added value, which is not so easy to cash out.
