Chapter 100: Everything Is Difficult at the Beginning
November 30, 999 in the Bingyang calendar
Isa City, Ichi Hotel, a coastal city in the west of the Negan Empire
Enzo: "Mona, look at me here, 2141 black-haired dog-headed prisoners. Big deal."
Mona: "So what do you want to do?"
Enzo: "If it is normal, I will definitely win by the highest bidder. But now, I want to find a trading partner among the major rebel armed forces in the northern Gaomu Kingdom who offers a moderate price and has a little vacancy in his own troops."
Hearing this, Mona knew that her husband not only connected with the Krurod Empire, but also began to plan how to harm the Gaomu Kingdom.
But this matter...actually, it's nothing. Anyway, the Negan Empire was originally in an unfriendly diplomatic relationship with the Gaomu Kingdom in the north, so that the northern border between the Negan Empire and the Gaomu Kingdom has a large number of border guards stationed for many years, and various defense facilities, especially magnetic storm coils, are one every 100 meters.
Therefore, the officials of the Negan Empire naturally have no obvious control over the actions of the Ichi Hotel.
Even the current mayor of Izo City is actually Mona's uncle.
In other words, the Iqi Hotel, or more precisely, the Mona family, as a family that actually engages in foreign mercenary work, is not worried about what the officials above will say.
At most, paying more taxes can immediately shut the officials' mouths. After all, the economic lifeline of Izo City is actually controlled by at least 70% of Mona's family. Including hotels, most of the industries related to accommodation and catering in Izo City are owned by Mona's family.
It's just that everyone understands that sometimes some things can't be done too obviously. Therefore, it has always been customary to support the representatives of interests to "perform" in public, while their own family is engaged in various businesses to make profits in private.
So the private transaction with the Krurod Empire, at least she herself thinks it is definitely a big business.
A big business that can squeeze how much money the black-haired dog-headed man has in his pocket.
The problem is...
Like Enzo, she might as well think carefully about how to make it last for a long time instead of squeezing.
After all, if you make all the money at once, it will be very difficult to operate in the future.
And Yiqi Hotel is a hotel located in a resort area. If customers only come once and never come again, how can Yiqi Hotel continue to operate?
Mona: "In other words, you want these captives to stay here temporarily in batches, and then sell them in batches?"
Enzo: "No?"
Mona: "At least I won't leave the normal guest rooms for them."
Enzo: "No problem. If you need, I can even make them not stay here overnight."
Mona: "So confident?"
Enzo: "There is a business model in the world, pre-order."
Mona: "It's up to you. Anyway, I won't allow them to appear in places where they shouldn't be."
Enzo: "Understand."
Mona: "Also, after touching them..."
Enzo: "Remember to take a shower."
Mona: "That's good to know. I won't accompany you to take a good shower."
Enzo: "Anyway, I will try my best to sleep with you every night."
Mona: "Then go."
After sending her husband out, Mona looked helpless. The officials above are all guys who are very careful about whether they are clean or not, and then they throw all kinds of things that cannot be said to their own family.
The result... Alas!
As long as most of the money earned can go into her own pocket, then she has no complaints. After all, one of the things she is best at is how to make the money earned "clean".
And she has a special accounting team on her side to ensure that no one can see any problems.
Of course, the members of this team are also members of her own family. Many times, her things must be done by her relatives. So not only her, but also all the female members of the family who have reached childbearing age have to do one thing-giving birth.
If she doesn't have more children, her family's business will really be difficult to sustain. Like herself, now she is the mother of five children, but she doesn't mind having a third child at all. As for whether she can afford to raise them, her eldest daughter is now married, so she doesn't actually have to worry about this problem.
Because the Negan Empire is a country with a small population and a large land, since the founding of the country, the first Queen hoped that the people would have more children. In addition, the Negan Empire implements a matriarchal social system that takes the mother's surname and the inheritance method of the eldest daughter. Men, including Enzo, are almost like male ants in an ant nest.
Although the Negan Empire has legally allowed polygamy in the era of the first Queen, Enzo, his elder brother, and even his son do not want to "enjoy" such high-quality and generous "benefits".
They are all a group of "tough guys" who insist on monogamy to the end.
However, they are the only ones who are unique. Some people in the Negan Empire have become "studs" that are "raised" by female citizens.
Especially the male employees in the hotel, except for those who are blood-related to themselves, are all "standard" husbands with three or even four wives. As a result, they often complain about the same thing to each other-not enough public grain and feel that they are being hollowed out.
There is no way.
This is the price of not being able to help. After all, everyone knows that such a husband will only be turned into a hapless man who can neither live nor die by his wives who are more proficient in seduction.
In short, no matter what, she expects Enzo to do things well and come back safely. After all, she is a woman in her youth and also needs enough nourishment.
Especially nourishment from the inside out, this is very important. Even if she has received nourishment before and bred new lives one after another. But she doesn't mind, there is no problem with higher nourishment frequency and intensity.
At the same time, Bourne, who finally sent more air force fighters to station on Awa Island, looked relaxed.
Senagu: "I say Bourne, you relax yourself just by taking Awa Island?"
Bourne: "Ha, haven't you heard a saying? Everything is difficult at the beginning. My work here is now a good start, so everyone..."
Looking at the other officials in the congressional meeting room, Bourne rarely showed his smile. But compared to his smile, the battle to regain lost ground still has to continue.
Even so far, the regeneration room has provided the army of the Krurod Empire with enough infantry weapons to ensure that the invasion of the Akitsu Empire cannot continue.
Envira: "The next step is the two large islands in the northern province, right?"
Bourne: "Yes. But I can foresee that the next battle will be more difficult. Although I don't want to do this, I still want to see some surprises."
Obviously, even if Bourne didn't say all his words, Envira, who knew the inside story, nodded gently.
The best way to best disintegrate the opponent's defense is to break from the inside.
And inside...
Yes.
The Akitsu Empire has always had a serious problem-black-haired dog-headed people.
These guys who have been aggressive and even habitually engaged in looting activities in history have never sincerely obeyed the Akitsu Empire's direct order to confiscate all of its most important staple food-rice, and all disobedient things were caught and sent to the front line as cannon fodder.
The result was not unexpected. The resistance of the black-haired dog-headed people was intensified in the form of force.
But no matter which rebel army, none of them has enough confidence to overthrow the regime of Takagi Kingdom. Not to mention that until now, Takagi Kingdom still receives military assistance from Akitsu Empire, which completely suppresses these rebel forces with ulterior motives.
And according to the latest intelligence, Akitsu Empire is now smarter and is finally willing to equip the royal guards of Takagi Kingdom with more advanced wave energy weapons to ensure that the royal family of Takagi Kingdom has enough strength to maintain its rule.
But this doesn't make much sense. Takagi Kingdom is not like some theocratic countries, which have a religion to maintain the whole country...
