Chapter 389 Technical Barriers of Gnome

Li Ke didn't know what the Storm nobles who had received the reply from the King of Lordaeron would think, but he knew that he was quite miserable.

He was meeting with the caravan leader sent by the dwarf, a dwarf lady who came because of his order.

"In other words, Miss Kelsey, if we just buy the dwarf's chemical products, you will be happy to form a fleet, but if we want to get your chemical equipment, we need to make a long-term supply agreement with you. contract, and the related machinery can only be purchased and upgraded from you?”

Li Ke looked at the female dwarf in front of him and couldn't help but pick up the teacup.

What he was afraid of before happened. These dwarfs really created a technical barrier for him!

"You seem to have some high regard for the craftsmanship of dwarves. I need something, but it's not a very urgent need. And I can also find goblins. They don't have so many rules."

A female dwarf named Kelsey has a very cute face and orange-pink hair, but she has a lot of freckles on her face and is too childish.

So it is not the type that Li Ke likes. However, this is not the case for people in this world, because Li Ke saw clearly that when the female person in charge who came here with the caravan appeared, the people around him The future countess subconsciously wanted to hug the other person, and even showed a cat-like expression.

"But this is a normal technical exchange, Mr. Li Ke, and if you didn't trust the craftsmanship and technical quality of our dwarves, how could we be here? This is the fact. In terms of the indicator of stable operation, Gnome technology will always be more trustworthy than goblin technology."

After speaking, Kelsey also handed a document to Li Ke.

“And you see, we can also provide those services.”

Li Ke picked up the document Kelsi gave him and took a look, then felt a familiar smell.

First of all, the gnomes can provide Li Ke with a large number of cheap chemical products, and then they can also maintain the machines for Li Ke. Li Ke does not need to hire a worker or technician. As long as he gives a little money, the gnomes will send people over to help with repairs and maintenance. .

And if Li Ke is not satisfied with the output, there will be experts who will immediately help solve the problem in a strong scientific research atmosphere, and even the great craftsman Mekkatorque.

But the price is that Li Ke must sell grain to the dwarf at low prices, as well as a large amount of meat, and the dwarf also has to build a cannery and other food factories on his territory. They want Li Ke to sell these food factories to Li Ke. Ke gives some tax-free quotas, but if Li Ke has any orders, these factories will produce them at half price.

After Li Ke read it, he couldn't help but smile on his face.

Rather than fooling him into thinking Kael'thas, or Kaizi for short, Li Ke changed his name to Rick, which has a more local flavor.

These things may fool the lords and nobles with limited vision, but for a knowledgeable person like him, this treaty basically contains four big words.

History reappears.

As long as Li Ke dares to sign this treaty, then everything he owns will be sucked clean by the dwarves. At that time, at least 30% of the output of his territory will be given to the dwarfs, and then plus the tax to Varian, it will fall to Li Ke only had 40% of it.

This is enough for fun!

He didn't even plan to pay Varian's share, and planned to pay it with food, let alone understand the dwarf who wanted to suck blood.

But Li Ke didn't show his dissatisfaction. He just smiled and stretched out his hand, wanting to see what the dwarfs had prepared for him.

"Can I see a detailed list of the machines you have to offer? I've always been interested in gnome technology."

The female dwarf named Kelsey didn't feel anything was wrong and looked at a list they had prepared when they received Li Ke's invitation.

Then, he couldn't help but pinch his nose.

Sure enough, it was not beyond his expectation. In the mining industry, the prices of low-end parts and the like were very low, even at cost price. High-end products and parts, as well as the chemical industry machines he mentioned to the other party before, are ridiculously expensive.

Sure enough, it's all about plundering through technology.

Li Ke was really speechless. The dwarf planned to use him to complete industrial upgrading.

Use high-end technology to harvest his wealth and suppress his technology tree.

But if you look at it from the perspective of a medieval aristocrat, there is nothing wrong with the dwarfs, and you even feel that they are very responsible.

But it is a pity that Li Ke is not that kind of medieval aristocrat.

"Sorry, this treaty is too harsh. I can see that you have put a lot of thought into it, but unfortunately, I personally prefer goblin technology."

The meaning of Li Ke's words is very simple. You are treating me like a fucking idiot. If that's the case, then I will go find your nemesis.

Thinking of this, Li Ke suddenly felt much better. Although dwarf technology is difficult to obtain, it is still very simple to find a few goblins who are willing to betray their plutocrats.

If it doesn't work, just say that you have discovered biological and chemical weapons of mass destruction in the goblin territory, and directly suppress them on a humanitarian basis.

The goblins do have it anyway.

The main reason is that Li Ke has seen a lot of operations in this area, and he can know how to do these things instantly without even thinking.

"Harsh? Oh, my lord, how could you use such a terrible adjective."

She didn't seem to realize that Li Ke had seen through their trick. She looked at Li Ke in shock, as if she couldn't believe why Li Ke used such terrible words.

"That's the truth, isn't it? You have done a lot of homework, but my attitude is also very clear, this dwarf lady. I am doing business with you dwarfs in good faith. What I hope to see is a win-win transaction intention." , rather than a contract document full of calculations and traps."

After Li Ke finished speaking, a sarcastic smile appeared on his face.

"After all, it's not me who lost my home."

"you!"

The dwarf named Kelsey almost hit Li Ke on the head with the wrench in her arms, but looking at Li Ke's face that now looked full of mocking cheapness, she still knew one thing.

Their plan failed.

Things were indeed as Li Ke thought. The dwarf planned to set a trap for them, but this matter was not just for Li Ke, but they basically did this in the human kingdom.

In fact, the most unlikely thing is that they don't.

After all, compared to other races, the strength of dwarfs is the same as their appearance——

cute.
