Chapter 433 Foreign Affairs Handling
The affairs of the Ministry of Military Affairs are basically done. Bennett and his son just have the skills of cavalry training, so they just train Li Huailin cavalry. The next thing is the matter of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"My lord." Gwyneth stood up and reported to Li Huailin, "The first phase of war reparations on the elves' side has all been in place, and the other party paid very simply, and the news from over there , The elves seem to be very obedient to the lord, and there is no intention of revenge. It seems that there should be no possibility of conflict between us and the elves."
"The other side is the Beast Race. The opponent has officially launched a raid against the Elf Race. Although it is not a formal declaration of war, the raid this time is extremely ferocious, and the number of people is much higher than in previous years. The Elf Race Here, since the main force of the Silverwind Guard was completely wiped out by the lord, it is very difficult to rely on the second and third legions to resist, and has been forced to abandon some small villages and retreat into big cities for defense." Gwyneth continued. Said.
"This is a bit bad..." Li Huailin thought for a while and said, the so-called cold lips and teeth, if the orcs really defeated the elves, it would definitely increase their strength, which is not a good thing for the human race. The invasion of the orcs seems a bit weak, but this will trigger a full-scale declaration of war by the opponent, but the human races who are allies should also participate in the war... the demons, the allies of the orcs, will also participate in the war. It really wants a world war rhythm.
"Did the elves ask for reinforcements from the human race?" Li Huailin asked.
"Not yet." Gwyneth said, "But I have requested food aid and weapon aid, and His Royal Highness has already agreed, and the first batch of aid has been sent to the other party."
"Damn, you actually took things for nothing..." Li Huailin said.
"My lord, that's not the case. The elves are indeed short of food, and a large part of our two cities were sold to the elves by the De'an Chamber of Commerce." Oliveira, the finance minister here, inserted Let's talk.
"It seems that there is no time for the elves to collect food in the continuous war, and now they can't stand it anymore." Li Huailin said, "Okay, let's sell it there, and try to sell it as expensive as possible."
"The De'an Chamber of Commerce will definitely not suffer a loss." Oliveira said.
"Continue to pay attention to the situation." Li Huailin turned to Gwyneth and instructed. "Anything else?"
"A few days ago, the king of Krawai, Skender, submitted his surrender to the Duke, expressing his hope for our protection." Gwyneth said.
"Krawai? Where is it?" Li Huailin asked.
"It's a small country dominated by goblins,
It is very small, with a population of just over 10,000. ’ said Gwyneth.
"Is it bordering us?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, just to the west of the Kemler area." Gwyneth said.
"Shouldn't this kind of thing be discussed with Anthony?" Li Huailin asked.
"My lord, this kind of small country is not high enough to talk to His Royal Highness. To be honest, talking to you, my lord, is a bit too flattering. They have a total of more than 10,000 people in the whole country. Let's just choose a small city lord, the following Both have more people than each other," Gwyneth said.
"So, does the other party express their surrender?" Li Huailin asked.
"The other party is willing to pay 10,000 gold coins every year." Gwyneth said.
"I wipe it, only 10,000?" Li Huailin said that he opened a small shop and can earn 10,000 gold coins a month.
"Lord, the other party can provide us with 10,000 gold coins. According to the other party's finances last year, the 10,000 gold coins accounted for 19% of the other party's financial revenue..." said Oliveira next to him.
"It's so poor that I have nothing to say. I don't bother to care about them." Li Huailin waved his hand, "Okay. They can give it away if they want."
"My lord, the opposing king said that in order to deepen the friendship between the two sides, they are willing to give their country's most beautiful princess, Princess Seigne, as a concubine to my lord," Gwyneth said again.
"Fuck me, what kind of trouble is this tm?" Li Huailin thought about what the most beautiful goblin looks like. It's as if the chrysanthemum is tight, "No, the money is collected, and the person doesn't want it. He will send it wherever he likes. Don't throw it at me."
"Okay, I understand. I will answer King Skender in this way." Gwyneth nodded, "However, when the peace treaty is signed, the lord will still be present."
"Understood, isn't it just a sign, you have drawn up the treaty, I just sign it." Li Huailin said, "Is there anything else?"
Several people present looked at each other, but it seemed that nothing happened.
"Okay, there are a lot of things going on recently, everyone work a little harder, Reg, especially on your side, the army training must be done quickly." Li Huailin ordered.
Hearing Li Huailin's words, the four of them felt that Li Huailin had expressed the intention of going to war in the near future. The lord had already reminded him to this extent. They were too stupid to think of it. But who was hitting, few people didn't know, and they couldn't think of it, but they didn't ask too much, and now they can only work hard on this aspect first.
"Okay, let's do this first, let's end the meeting now." Li Huailin said.
"My lord, please wait a moment." Oliveira said, "Your lord is going out?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Li Huailin asked.
"That's it. Now that the lady is not here and the lord is going out, if something big happens, whose instructions should we listen to?" Oliveira asked.
"Oh, so..." Li Huailin thought for a while, "If something big happens, the four of you discuss it together. If you disagree, then listen to... Oliveira, you're fine."
"Listen to me?" Oliveira said in surprise.
"Yeah, money management is more important, just listen to you." Li Huailin said, "Okay, I'll go out first."
"Yes..." the four said together.
The territory is now well-funded, so it is more convenient to do anything. There are four more reliable subordinates watching. Li Huailin set the general direction a little bit and there is nothing to do. After all the things are arranged, the time is already close to night , Li Huailin is also preparing to explore the ruins.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, this team of five idiots prepared to assemble again. The location of the assembly was still the gate of the arena in the main city, because there were fewer people there when there was no competition, and it was easier to gather.
Li Huailin was actually the first one to arrive this time, because he had nothing to do after finishing the affairs of the territory, so he came here early, and when he arrived here, he found that he had indeed come a little earlier.
After waiting for about fifteen minutes with nothing to do, the second person finally arrived, and uncharacteristically, he was basically the last one to summon the Jade Emperor.
"Just you?" Summoning Jade Emperor said, looking around.
"Yeah, why are you so early today?" After standing alone for so long, finally someone came, and Li Huailin couldn't help but gossip.
"I didn't calculate the amount of medicine well, so I returned to the city a little earlier." Summoning the Jade Emperor said, "35 rushing to level 36 with 1.34 million experience points, how did you practice? Why so fast?"
"Do you still want to compare the leveling speed with a warrior like me who is full of power?" Li Huailin said, "Can't you try an attacking knight? Level up faster, and PK is a little bit better, you see Each side of the world."
"That kind of pervert..." Summoning the Jade Emperor said, "I don't have that kind of skill, by the way, tomorrow you seem to be going against each other, can you win?"
"If there are no accidents, there should be no problem." Li Huailin said, according to the previous contact, if the opponent does not have new awesome skills, he should be able to win.
"That's right, you are more perverted than the other side of the world." Summoning the Jade Emperor nodded.
"Hey, I'm awesome, okay? Please don't use the word pervert?" Li Huailin said.
"By the way, how is your chat with your father-in-law going? Is it successful?" Summoning Jade Emperor asked suddenly.
"Uh..." Li Huailin thought for a while, although the process was a bit tortuous, but it seems that he has completed Su Ximin's task, and now his father-in-law is busy with the company, and it seems that there is no time to say anything about their marriage , but it didn't prevent the two from meeting each other, so it was probably a success.
"How should I put it, it should be considered okay. Although I didn't agree, I didn't object." Li Huailin thought for a while and said.
"That's it, congratulations." Summoning the Jade Emperor said.
"Congratulations for what?" Feng Yiliu and Qian Zai Chang on the side walked over at the same time and asked.
"It seems that our awesome brother's father-in-law did not object to the two of you, so shouldn't you congratulate me?" Summoned Jade Emperor said.
"That is indeed congratulations." Qian Zaichang said, "Congratulations."
"Congratulations." Feng Yiliu also said.
"It made me a little embarrassed." Li Huailin said.
"By the way, Mr. Li asked me to tell you that you must participate in tomorrow's competition." Feng Yiliu said.
"I know this. Tomorrow, each side will fight, right? I will participate." Li Huailin said, "Okay, An Ran is here too."
A few people turned their heads, and An Ran over there also walked over slowly, seeing a few people turning their heads, she nodded slightly to say hello.
"How about the game in the afternoon?" Summoning the Jade Emperor, he walked over and asked.
"New job, I'm not used to it, I lost." An Ran said very unhappy, "Do you want to eat lizard eyeball cake?"
"Why is there such a strange food every time, and every time there is no repetition?" Summoning the Jade Emperor complained directly.
"Calm down, time is running out, let's go." Li Huailin stepped forward and said. (to be continued,!
