Miss White Wolf's Terra Travel Journal

Is she in pain?

of course.

But she was also happy with the pain, and she gradually understood that pure innocence and beauty only exist in fairy tales, and pain is the real secret of loving someone.

When Bai Lang talked about that incident, Miss Bai Jin was already calm. She looked at her lover's face with a smile. In the ruthless countdown of time, trying to savor the last companionship was the right thing to do.

But even in such a calm state of mind due to noble feelings, she was still surprised by what Miss White Wolf said.

Not only her, but no one present could remain calm, even Lord Enchiodis frowned and thought carefully and deeply.

Because what Miss White Wolf said was: "Director Durul has another request. He hopes that Platinum can find a way to let Olicia meet him, and I intend to meet his request."

Before anyone else could say anything, Nosis was the first to speak: "Ms. Olicia, you should know what you mean. You are going to meet with the director of the Commercial Federation, the biggest enemy of Kalan Trade, on Shelag's land."

Miss White Wolf replied calmly, "Yes, but he is not only an enemy of Kalan Trade, he is also of Icestone, which is why I need to see him and talk to him in person."

In fact, before the negotiations began, Miss White Wolf had no intention of meeting the enemy.

It would be better to say that it was SilverAsh who taught her this trick. If you want to set a bait, you can't just set one. There must be a second bait behind the bait, and the next trap is hidden behind the trap. What she is going to give to Durul will be gifts one after another.

No matter how much she planned, she also needed to see with her own eyes what kind of person Platinum's director was. Only in this way could she truly determine whether Miss Platinum's future was safe. If it was not appropriate, she would try to take the other party away directly even if it went against Miss Platinum's will.

Trap and protection, which one is the most hidden purpose in her heart, she didn't dare to think about it. She was afraid that she owed too much to Kalan Trade, and the inappropriate emotions would hinder her next action.

Nosis asked again: "Are you sure it makes sense to do this?"

Miss White Wolf knew in her heart that this was a question asked by the silent Silver Gray through Nosis, so she answered Silver Gray by answering Nosis:

"The key to defeating an enemy is to understand him, but what others tell you is never as good as seeing it with your own eyes. Saint Lady may have described me, but is the me described the same as the me in front of you?

"Due to Kjerag's special situation, Kalan Trade has lost the opportunity to have a normal meeting with the top leaders of the Commercial Union forever. However, Icestone Technology is different. Durul's letter still maintains a friendly attitude, and he himself has rarely left Casimir. This opportunity may be our only chance to understand the enemy."

At this point, Miss White Wolf frowned slightly, and her eyes pierced Enthiodis' heart like an arrow: "Mr. Silver Gray, the above is my judgment, and the reality is indeed as Nosis said, it is on Kjerag's land, so the decision-making power is in your hands."

Miss White Wolf stopped talking, and the entire conference room fell silent.

Under the gazes of the crowd, SilverAsh first experienced a brief silence, and then a smile suddenly appeared on his face. He glanced at Olicia, and then the two of them stood up at the same time.

SilverAsh took the initiative to extend his hand and shook hands with Olicia on the negotiation table.

"Ms. Olicia, you are already an ally of Kalan Trade. As you said, Kalan Trade will never have such an opportunity again. So, on behalf of Kalan Trade, I would like to entrust you to see the enemy clearly."

"Sir Silvergray, a shallow thank you will only make my gratitude pale in comparison. You will see what your allies see. In front of the enemy, the Commercial Federation, the eyes of Icestone are the eyes of Kalan Trade."

Chapter 2023 Win! 07-03-12 00:02:

The negotiations on trade between Bingshi and Kalan came to an end in harmony.

It was late at night, and everyone said goodbye to each other and went back to rest. Only Silverash and Nosis were not idle. After the negotiations, they had to go to the industrial dispatch center on the outskirts of the city to arrange a series of work.

On the way, Nosis hesitated several times, and finally couldn't help but want to ask something: "Enxioudis, I didn't expect this failure."

SilverAsh calmly replied to his old friend: "We can't keep going smoothly forever. Just like before the negotiations with Rhodes Island, we didn't expect to be defeated so completely."

"It's different. Rhodes Island's initial negotiation conditions were not favorable to us, so it's normal for us to fail. We clearly had the biggest advantage this time, but this is the result."

"You saw the whole thing, and you understand how things got to this point. She is a very strong opponent."

“But I’m still confused about some things.”

"You said."

"You know, we were 100% sure of victory from the beginning to the end, because now Bingshi can only pray for the help of Kalan Trade. You just need to be more forceful and use warnings and hints, and she will naturally retreat without leaving a trace. But you didn't do that. You didn't do that throughout the whole process."

Silver Gray turned his head to look at his old friend and said in a relaxed tone: "You still don't understand?"

Nosis shook his head seriously: "I don't understand, I only see that you gave up the most crucial advantage."

Silver Gray sighed:

"Nosis, do you know that the method you just described is a common trick used by the Chamber of Commerce? Many years ago, the Chamber of Commerce used this method to deal with Shelagh.

"Ice Stone placed his bet on Kjerag, hoping to find a partner to fight against the Chamber of Commerce, just as I placed my bet on Victoria, hoping someone could save the crisis of Kalan's trade.

"I was not disappointed then. I successfully found allies with whom I could work wholeheartedly. So today, Bingshi will not be disappointed either. She came all the way here to find allies, not a business association called Kalan Trade that has ulterior motives.

"Although this ally will have to contend with Bingshi over interests, and there may be some verbal battles, allies are allies after all. Only by working together can we withstand the cold winter. This is also the foundation for the development and growth of Kalan's trade."

Every word Silver Gray said was a true expression of emotion, and it was obvious that it came from the bottom of his heart. However, Nosis' lips trembled and he gritted his teeth:

"Enciotis, use your oratory skills for something else instead of trying this on me. Tell me, what's the reason?"

"That's the reason." Yinhui remained calm.

"Do you think I will believe it?"

"I think you will." Silver Gray smiled, "Of course there is more than that, there are other considerations."

"You should have said something else from the beginning instead of talking nonsense to me."

"That's not nonsense. Nosis, you are just too utilitarian. There are always some beautiful things in the world worth pursuing."

Nosis shook his head helplessly: "How could such words come out of your mouth? Well, forget it, forget it. I won't argue with you. Just understand what you are saying."

Silver Gray said seriously, "Well, actually, when we decided to join the national industrial system, we had no choice but to conduct comprehensive negotiations with Ice Stone, because if the nuclear power was in Ice Stone's hands, wouldn't our decision be a handle? If necessary, we even have to agree to the other party's conditions."

"I don't think it's as you said."

"Of course, if you can reverse crack the technical secrets of the ice stone energy core, it won't be like that."

“There must be another way.”

"Yes, if we can poach researchers from the Ice and Stone Research Institute, we can completely get out of this predicament. I know those names, Eyjafjalla, Ceylon, Aina... You can use your connections in the scientific research community. Do you think it's possible?"

"Let's talk about the issue of cracking technical secrets." Nosis changed the subject.

"Well, do you think it's okay?"

"No, if I were doing research full-time, I might be able to figure something out, but with this work model, I can't concentrate on research."

"So you see, Kalan Trade is actually at a disadvantage in the negotiations."

"According to you, the few rights you have fought for are major successes?"

“I didn’t say that.” SilverAsh immediately distanced himself from the matter, and pretended to think seriously. “From a long-term perspective, even if we don’t count the rights we fought for, Kjerag’s negotiations are still a victory.”

Nosis denied it on the spot: "I don't think so. I think those rights are very important. After removing them, I can't think of any other advantages."

"As I said, we are looking at it from a long-term perspective." Silver Gray explained, "Kalan Trade's biggest enemy has always been the Business Federation, and a stronger Ice Stone will directly put pressure on the Business Federation. You have seen that Ice Stone is still very weak now, but it has already caused the Business Federation to hastily adopt blockade measures. What will happen when Ice Stone becomes stronger?

"The reason is simple. Olicia's background and position determine that the stronger she is, the more advantageous it is to Kjerag. If Olicia is suppressed throughout today's negotiation, I will really feel regretful, because in that case, our partner will be just a dependent, not an ally at all, and we can't expect much help in fighting against the Business Federation.

"But if the situation is reversed and her means are enough to suppress the Kalan trade and make the Kalan trade negotiations fail, then it will be a completely different matter. In my opinion, the more the Kalan trade fails, the happier I will be.

"Remember, I told you before the negotiation that Kjerag would win no matter what. We either win the negotiation or win the future. If you insist on thinking that we lost at the negotiation table, think again, because if we lose, we win."

Nosis was almost dumbfounded by his old friend's words, but the scary thing was that after thinking about it carefully, he actually felt that it made a lot of sense. He almost didn't know what to say, and after a long time he finally said:

"It seems that you think highly of Miss Olicia."

"Yes, she brings so many surprises."

Silver Gray's tone was still calm, but within the calmness there was a hint of curiosity and excitement:

"I originally thought of her as a young Kal'tsit or Kristen. But now, I clearly see the shadow of nobility in her. With her ability, I don't believe she will be just an imperial viscount in the future.

"She made me realize a possibility, that commercial cooperation might rise to the level of national cooperation. The situation in Ursus is becoming increasingly chaotic, and Icestone's base happens to be near the most stable tundra, which is the harsh north that is unlikely to be affected even if a war breaks out.

“Olicia is a typical military noble, with personal strength that can rival the mace, and also possesses ideas and abilities that are completely different from those of traditional nobles. A chaotic background is likely to make such a person.

"I think that Ice Stone... no, Olicia, is a very worthy investment."

Chapter 2023: The Blade That Opens the Way07-04-12 00:06:

early morning.

South of Kalan City, there is a small town called Luoxue.

Durul, the director of the Chamber of Commerce, sat leisurely in front of the communicator, reading the daily newspaper of Kalan Newspaper with great interest.

When people who didn't know the situation saw this scene, they would probably think that the other person's mind was on the newspaper. However, every once in a while, Durul would put the newspaper down, look up and take a look at the location of the communicator.

The personal guard knight knew what the other party was waiting for, and he felt a little indignant in his heart, as no one had ever made his director wait like this.

But he knew the whole story and understood that such waiting was necessary, so he could only bury his resentment in his heart, control his emotions, and stand obediently beside the director.

The clock ticks forward.

The night in Kjerag was particularly hard to bear. It was too quiet outside, making the guard knights who were used to the bustling and noisy Grand Knight Territory feel uncomfortable every minute.

Durul suddenly threw the newspaper on the desk, stood up and asked the guard knight to open the window. The latter was liberated from the boring silence and immediately obeyed the order.

The window is open.

Snow flakes fluttered down from the night sky, and floated into the room in the gentle breeze. The whole town was sleeping in the quiet darkness, and only the orange misty light could be seen at the station.

"What a nice place." Duluer looked out the window and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.

The guard knight quickly replied: "You are right. This town has such a large flow of people. If we can demolish the old buildings and replace them with shopping malls..."

Durul frowned and sighed inwardly, thinking that as an elite guard who grew up in the Great Knight's Territory, it was indeed difficult for him, who came from the countryside, to understand the nostalgia he felt when facing the quiet night.

Some people struggle their entire lives just to get to the Grand Knight Territory, some are born into the Grand Knight Territory, and now, he, who came from a declining background, has climbed to the top, and the elites born into the Grand Knight Territory have become his subordinates who have to read his words and expressions.

The natural sense of comfort and satisfaction brought him to a higher dimension. From the perspective of a person looking down on others, he easily forgave the misunderstanding of the guard knight.

"How are the preparations going?" he asked.

"It's all ready. Are you sure you want to execute it? The people on the board of directors may have some opinions."

"It doesn't matter. Those people are always like this. They don't have the ability to solve the problem themselves, and then they point fingers when others are about to take action. Don't pay any attention to them."

"Okay, just give me an order and I'll get started."

"We'll wait for news from Bai Jin. If there's any progress from her side, we'll stop this move. Although we don't mind further antagonizing Kalan Trade, we still have to save money and live in peace with Enchiodis for the time being."

The guard knight nodded, and couldn't help but say, "Sir, your expectations of Platinum seem a bit high."

"She passed my assessment. The contact we had yesterday was enough to prove her worth."

"But she also interrupted the task you had arranged..."

"What you call 'private interruption' is exactly what I admire most about her."

Looking at the surprised guard knight, Durul slowly taught: "The Commercial Federation is not the Heroless Alliance. We don't need rigid-minded executors. People who know how to make compromises to gain the greatest benefits are what we really need.

"The most important thing is that I discovered very early on that although Bai Jin is an assassin of the No Helmet Alliance, she is interested in the business issues of the headquarters. She concealed it very well, but she is under my command every day, so I naturally have a way to see it.

"I deliberately asked her some questions, and her answers surprised me. She insisted that assassinating Olicia was an irrational act. She was able to infer some information based on her minimal contact with Ice Stone and Olicia. Although this information was proven to be wrong, it was surprisingly close to the results of our careful research.

"An assassin, relying on an encounter at Longmen, deduced some information, which was surprisingly close to the result of the day and night efforts of the intelligence department of the Business Federation. This is not a coincidence, nor is it a matter of carefulness. This is a matter of talent.

"You have always been curious about why I brought her here. Now I will tell you the real reason. I have long stopped considering her as just a high-level assassin. Her abilities gave me a hunch that she might bring me new surprises.

"It would be a waste for such a person to stay in the No-Heroes Alliance. Only the Commercial Union can bring out her value. It may be difficult for us to find another person who has both the ability of a top assassin and the qualities required by the Commercial Union."

The guard knight bowed his head in admiration and said, "I am a stupid subordinate. I didn't understand your foresight. I always thought that you only wanted her to be a guard to deal with assassins."

At this time, a new question entangled in his mind. The privilege of being a personal guard knight made him dare to ask again: "Sir, since she is so important, why didn't you tell her the news of the Black Knight, but let her risk her life..."

"The Business Federation always gives out gifts with a clear price. She has to prove that she has the ability and...luck to accept them. Dying there only means that she is not qualified."

"She's lucky then. You haven't promoted any staff members specifically in many years."

"No, it's too early. She just has potential. Tools must be polished before they can be useful. She still has a lot to learn."

"Do you want to..."

"If everything goes well, I plan to keep her by my side for a while, but this will inevitably face many obstacles. Her identity will make other directors wary, unless she can do something to shut up those idiots..."

The guard knight nodded in understanding: "Before that, you can hand her over to me. I will teach her the necessary things."

Durul smiled and said, "That's what I meant."

The red light on the communicator suddenly flashed. Durul looked at the time. It was 12:10 in the morning. He signaled his subordinates with his eyes to connect the line and prepared himself for communication.

……

ten minutes later.

The communication ended, and the Knight Guard looked at the Director with a look of shock and admiration:

"You, you have such a keen eye... She could actually...what about our original plan?"
