Chapter 153 Changes in the Roentgen Chamber of Commerce

"Welcome Miss Charlene."

In the mansion in the city, Gewell and Jialan received the caravan from afar. A warm charcoal fire was burning in the living room, and several people sat on the sofa beside them in an irregular circle.

"Hello, Lord Gavier." The businesswoman who had traveled a long journey sat on the soft sofa and seemed relieved.

"Because I received a letter from a friend, this time I brought a lot of things that the territory should need." After taking a sip from the teacup, the merchant lady slowed down a little and began to talk slowly.

"There are some grains, metal tools, seeds, ropes, and cloth among them." She asked the attendants behind her to bring a list and hand them over.

Gavier and Jialan looked at them, nodded from time to time, and then put their hands down.

"Trouble Miss Charlene and the Roentgen Chamber of Commerce."

"It's not too much trouble, after all, as a businessman, you must go wherever you have business." Miss Charlene smiled and waved her hand, indicating that you don't have to be so polite.

"In this case, at least in the first half of the year, there is nothing missing." Jialan sighed a little.

"As for the remuneration, the territory will pay half the amount first, and the rest will be paid in the form of goods in the summer."

"Well, I understand. I said it in the letter before. But I still have to sign a contract." After speaking, Miss Charlene also took out the contract paper prepared in advance. On the paper page full of light-colored patterns, she wrote with clear regulations and conventions.

After another negotiation and discussion, the contract was stamped with the seals and spiritual imprints of both parties, and finally a faint light was emitted, and a new pattern was derived to cover up the handwriting, so that it could not be changed in the future.

To wrap up these business affairs, Gavier invited Miss Charlene to dinner.

"Okay, we also need a good rest."

After that, Miss Charlene temporarily returned to the caravan's station, and soon the nameless knight came here and walked in.

In the tent at the station, Charlene looked at Messiah who took off her helmet, that is, Roland Hill, and circled around her a few times in surprise and curiosity.

"What's wrong?" Roland Hill felt a little embarrassed.

"It's nothing, I'm just surprised. Think about it, after more than 2 months of absence, a cute girl has become a cold and powerful heroic knight or something. It is said that she even fought against the legion cavalry of the empire. It's not bold to describe it."

After speaking, Miss Charlene took a closer look at Roland Hill's armor.

"It feels very masculine, not as good-looking as before." She leaned down, pressed her fingers to her chin, and touched the cold and sturdy dark-gold armor with her other hand.

"The silver armor like Messiah was cute before." She seemed a little dissatisfied, feeling that the girl didn't make good use of her appearance at all.

"But that would be very troublesome." Roland Hill shook his head helplessly.

The previous silver armor is not a full-coverage armor, but an armor that focuses on protection. It is divided into breastplate, shoulder armor, skirt armor, gauntlets, boots, etc. In some details, the girl is divided into several parts. The slender waist and beautiful figure are revealed, which is indeed more flexible and beautiful, but from the perspective of concealment, it can't compare to this fully covered armor.

"Actually, actually..." Lorraine Hill hesitated to say that Jialan was also her, which would avoid a lot of trouble.

"Okay, I can really understand Messia's thoughts. Now the southern border is not stable." Charlene sat down and began to talk about her recent experience.

"Shortly after you left, a big event happened in Chixin Province, the descendants of the Baska family returned, and many local nobles and officials quickly fell to them, and then the legions of the empire began to reinforce, and began to attack and fighting."

"Is the Roentgen Chamber of Commerce affected?" Lorraine Hill asked worriedly.

"It was affected. My father asked us to go to various parties with many people and assets, saying that eggs cannot be put in the same basket."

"The current Roentgen Chamber of Commerce has actually been divided into several parts. My two brothers took most of it away, and only left a small part to me."

"But to say I'm sad, it's not enough. I'm not weak to this point. In fact, I feel very relaxed, because this is considered independent, and I won't have to be governed by my father and brothers in the future."

Miss Charlene waved the silk folding fan in her hand, talking about the drastic changes in the past two months.

Because of the chaos of war and the lack of stability in Chixin Province, which is the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce, the president is Miss Charlene's father.

"Actually, there are many chambers of commerce that do this. Now many large chambers of commerce are aware of the crisis and begin to consider the way back."

"Some are courting the senior officials of the Imperial Legion, some are contacting the remaining fiefdoms in the southern border, and some simply transfer their assets to the middle of the empire, where it will be more stable."

...

"You said to go abroad? It's very few, because businessmen don't have strong power, and they carry too much money, they're like fat sheep to be slaughtered. And they're outsiders, so it's hard to get fair treatment."

....

"Crancia? I don't know much about that country, but it looks very strong. After all, it has defeated the empire in the war over the years. Maybe I will consider visiting it in the future."

Compared with later generations, there are no newspapers and telegraph networks today, and many news are not smooth. Even after the war has ended for nearly a year or two, many imperial people still do not understand the country to the west. The impression of more people still stays in Xuehua

In the era of the Seven Kingdoms, it was believed that there was not as rich and prosperous as the empire's side.

The only one who let everyone know more about it is probably the alchemist of the Rourna country. After all, many changes in the empire over the years are related to these new technologies.

The installation of muskets, the popularity of various alchemy props among nobles, and the rumored secret weapon of Crancia's victory over the empire are all related to these.

After the meeting with Charlene, Roland Hill put on the heavy and simple armor again and returned to the room.

Returning to the identity of Jialan, Loren Hill lay on the soft bed, looking at the ceiling.

I feel a little tired recently. Sure enough, governing the territory is actually a hard job, and there is no reliable system to assist it, so I have to do it myself.

Get some help.

Thinking like this, the girl pulled the quilt, got into the warm bed, and got ready for a good night's sleep.

Close your eyes and filter out some candidates in your mind for now. Naturally, you can't transfer those students from Crancia, which can easily become interference in other countries' internal affairs and leave historical issues.

But starting from scratch feels a bit unnecessary.

This is the same as playing a game. It is hard to level up. If you don't use it, you will feel a little suffocated.

The thoughts turned around in her mind, and the girl turned around in the bed again and continued to think.

I don't know if the agreement at that time included the Carrites Chamber of Commerce under Lacey's name. After all, this chamber of commerce also has a lot of overseas industries. Those members of the Southern Islands branch do not belong to Crancia, and they may be transferred to the empire. to assist.

But this seems to be suspected of cheating, and Roland Hill is a good boy and doesn't like cheating a bit.

Forget it, let's ask Tides, I believe this smart senior has many means.

Slowly, the night was getting deeper, and a few stars appeared in the sky outside the window, twinkling, and the quiet night spread in the small town.
