Chapter 238: Imaginary

Twin Cities.
　　 The first city built by the Yongye Group Army.
　　 It began designing and groundbreaking in the second year of its establishment, and was officially completed in the seventh year, spanning five years.
　　In the eyes of the Lords and Nobles of the Byron Alliance, the castle built in five years is probably a country manor. After all, it took decades or even hundreds of years to build a castle by several generations.
　　 It can only be said that they are too lonely, and their thinking is too old and conservative.
The financial, material and manpower invested by the Yongye Group in the Twin Cities is absolutely beyond the imagination of most lord nobles. There are more than 20,000 strong laborers working at the highest peak here. Even in winter, there are four to five thousand people quarrying and burning bricks around. Prepare for the big construction in the second year.
Not to mention that in this process, the Yongye Group Army used black powder to blast quarry, burn masonry, burn lime, and grind cement and other new technologies and building materials. The pulley crane is a manpower-saving tool. To the extreme.
　　 How terrifying the construction speed is, it’s hard to feel exactly without being in it.
　　 But at the beginning, it and the blasting block the rivers and mountains, the two ultimate projects known as the Yongye Group Army are veritable.
　　 It’s just that the two are different in nature. One is construction and the other is destruction.
Destroyed, although they will become famous for a while with the re-flow of the Jacob River, no, they don’t even have the opportunity to become famous. Even if they know their achievements and existence, there are not too many inside the Yongye Army, let alone Said to be outsiders, they only know that a mountain range was pushed up and how it was dug up, it is not clear.
　　 Regent Princess Sophie Liya also chose to keep secret for the Yongye Army.
It is more appropriate to keep secrets for the Yongye Army than to keep secrets for herself. She is the second person to hold black powder after the Yongye Army. Although the amount is not particularly large, with the cooperation with the Yongye Army, The holdings will increase.
　　According to her calculating temperament, of course, she must pit her own enemy before it is exposed. As for who it is, it depends on who hits the gun.
The construction will have to become famous all over the world with the existence of the building. In the future, the Yongye Group Army will build artificial projects far beyond the Twin Cities. That is inevitable, but that is a future thing. In a short time, it will become the Yongye Group Army. An iconic city cannot be replaced.
　　 "What's wrong? Is there anything on my face?"
　　 Sean thinks that he has a thick skin, but when a woman stares at him intently for several minutes, he also feels uncomfortable.
　　Especially when this woman is very noble, and she can't do anything that can easily cause misunderstanding. Behind her, there are two champion knights and a prospective champion knight staring at him.
　　 "Angie Beina once told me that you started Su Hui since childhood. I didn't believe it at first, but now I believe it."
　　 The regent princess put away some indecent actions, and once again restored her graceful and luxurious appearance.
　　 "Why did your Highness say this?"
　　 Sean was confused. It wasn't that he was pretending to be stupid, but that he didn't know why the other party suddenly came up with such a sentence. What irritated her so abnormally?
Condescendingly, looking down on the rolling river and the Twin Cities where a large number of merchant ships shuttled through, Sophielia showed a very rare and fascinating color: "The last time I saw it, I felt awkward and ugly. I didn't expect it to be the same after the river reflow It’s beautiful, and you didn’t consider the consequences of failure when you built such a city ten years in advance? How old were you then?"
　　 I have seen two versions of Twin Cities, and I feel more shocked from them.
　　 I have to say that Ferdinand has already entered the building in terms of architecture. The Twin Cities are not only sturdy, but also practical and aesthetic. In addition to the differences between the two sides, many places echo each other and integrate with the natural environment of the Andes Mountains.
　　Mountain, water, and city are interdependent, which looks very pleasing to the eye.
　　 When the Jacob River re-flowed, although the Twin Cities did not face the impact of the flood peaks, they were sturdyly immersed in the turbulent river water for several months, but the main structure was not seriously damaged. It was put into official use after minor repairs.
　　 The Twin Cities are now not only the water gateway of the Yongye Group Army, but also a transit and supply station. Many goods from the mountains are directly transported here for shipment.
　　 With the opening of the Twin Cities, with it as the center, tens of miles around has also begun to lively, and various villages and factories have sprung up.
　　It won’t be long before it will become the first large-scale industrial park of the Yongye Group Army. Although most of it is only primary processing, it is already quite remarkable.
　　 At that time, it will be a city in the true sense, driving the development of a region.
　　 This kind of flourishing scene is the most beautiful scenery in Sophia's eyes. I can't see enough at all. I have grasped the pros and cons of this development model in my heart, and see if I can borrow it in my own territory.
"Now that we have succeeded, why bother with this question?" Shaun said haha, turning the topic off, "If it is possible, can we go back to the meeting room and continue the topic just now, the four-party meeting is coming soon, we need There are many issues to be finalized and we must hurry up."
　　 "It's okay." Sophie Liya took a deep breath, and she didn't know if she had used some royal secret technique, her spirit became very full in an instant, and her fighting spirit was high.
　　 "It's really a difficult opponent." Sean sighed from the bottom of his heart, and at the same time, he cheered up and prepared to fight a new round with him at the negotiating table.
　　 The Princess Regent arrived in the Twin Cities with Sean before and after.
The Quartet meeting mainly reached a consensus on the rights of the Manyu Army. The focus was on Philip and Angie Beina. The Regent Princess Sophia Liya was the mediator, and the Yongye Group Army was a mixed face to ensure the Manyu Army. After the leadership is complete and unified, his water business in the Manyu Army will not be affected.
　　 Philip, the first-in-line successor to the Man Yu army, is a very famous racist and hates the Andeans.
　　 At the beginning, Angie Bena approached Patlem for the first time, except that Patlem was relatively weak and easy to control, because in front of this brother, there was no talk at all.
　　 Philip was forced to compromise under the pressure of the regent princess. However, it is foreseeable that many conditions will not go too smoothly.
　　 It is not that the Princess Regent did not consider uniting Angie Bena and Sean, and at the same time cleared Pat Lem and Philip out of the game, and supported Angie Bena to the upper position.
　　 Sean was willing to see such a situation, but it was not in the interest of the Lancelot royal family.
　　Because Anjibena's power is not pure, there is a secret society of witches standing behind.
　　 The Regent Princess neither hopes that the Holy See of Saint Ether will continue to expand, nor does she hope that the influence of the Secret Society of Witches will continue to grow.
　　 At the same time, there is also a problem with Anjibeina's identity. If the regent princess forcibly supports her to the upper position, it will cause a strong backlash from other princes' families.
　　 This is a matter of family inheritance. The regent princess can interfere in the battle for the succession of the Man Yu army today, and they can interfere in their family tomorrow. They have to prevent it in advance.
　　The issue of inheritance rights, especially the inheritance rights of several great princes, is said to be a military leader, but in fact it is similar to the principality.
　　 At the beginning, the Man Yu army leader was in a mess. It was not that the Lancelot royal family was unresponsive, but that there was no way to intervene. They could not enter the stadium until they received the first-in-line heir Philip's initiative.
　　 looks a bit convoluted, but this is barely recognized by other grand dukes.
　　 In the transaction between the Princess Regent and the Yongye Group Army, there are many things that cannot be stated clearly. Naturally, it is necessary to reach a consensus, sign an agreement, and unify the caliber before the meeting of the four parties.
　　 The reason why the Princess Regent came to the Twin Cities, not Sean went to the Princess Regent fief.
　　 is because the place where the Quartet meeting was held was on a warship on the river not far from the Twin Cities, so Sophie Liya was just passing by.
　　Compared with the mutually vigorous agreement in the vegetable market at the beginning, the agreement to be signed this time is more substantial. The two sides must compare each other. For a little bit of benefit, they have been fighting for more than half an hour.
　　 Of course, these involve specific matters. It is not the princess Regent and Sean who acted personally, but the professionals of the two sides, who made the final decision.
　　Only when it comes to sensitive and important goods such as merchant ships or black powder, two people are required to go out in person.
　　When I got to them, the progress was quite fast, because before the two sides met, these had already been estimated. Whether it was one's own or the other's bottom line, it was easier to make a decision.
The more difficult ones are usually those that one party did not think of in advance. For this kind of issues, the one that did not expect is usually more sensitive, because there is no way to give an accurate estimate at the moment, and no one knows whether there are greater interests hidden behind it. .
　　The only way is to die to prevent too much loss.
　　 Generally speaking, the atmosphere is quite good. If there is really no way to reach an agreement, it will be put on hold for the time being, and will not be discussed until the other party is ready.
　　 In a more fashionable sentence, put aside disputes and develop together.
　　 Three days, fleeting.
　　 The river section 10 kilometers downstream from the Twin Cities has become very lively. Not only the boats on the river shuttle, but the people on the shore are also full of people, and countless people are camping.
　　 Obviously, Viscount Philip was also full of worries about the four-party talks this time, and it was not that he was worried that the regent princess would be disadvantaged.
　　 If the Princess Regent wants to deal with him, she doesn't need to spend such a lot of trouble, and directly cancels the support of the Lancelot royal family for him, and he can only go into exile.
　　 Philip's main concern is his half-brother Patlem. The four-party talks involve too many forces and the actions are too big to be confidential.
　　 Patlem, who was left out, would inevitably do desperate things.
Facts have proved that this concern is correct. When Sean saw the first heir to the heroic Man Yu army, the opponent’s armor was not removed, and there were blood stains on it. Obviously, he was on the way. It's not peaceful.
"General Sean, I have heard of the name for a long time. You have created a miracle. No, it is two miracles. You have not only completed the unification cause that countless people in Andes have not been able to accomplish, but also let the Jacob River that has been dry for hundreds of years. When you re-flow, the people of Manyu Army will remember your kindness."
　　 When we met in the first day of the year, Viscount Philip enthusiastically shook Sean's hand and did not hesitate to praise his words.
　　 Viscount Philip’s performance really made Sean be in circles for a few seconds. This was completely far from the personal settings he had collected that were extremely racist and hate foreigners.
Before that, Sean had made enough preparations for the other party to make things difficult for him, and he had written a few minutes. How will he go back in a manner that is not humble and not speak, not only demonstrates his demeanor, but also shows that the Yongye Group cannot be insulted. .
　　 but only did not expect this reaction from the other party.
But Sean is also a battle-tested little fox. There is a smile that is as sincere as he is sincere on his face: "The Viscount Lord is very acclaimed, and I am so thrilled with your majestic military exploits. I am honored to see it today. ."
　　 When the two hands shook hands, Sean knew that a large part of the goodwill shown by the other party was false.
　　 The opponent's big hand is like a pair of iron tongs, slender and powerful, shrinking and pulling.
　　 The information he possessed was even outdated. The opponent was no longer a great knight, but a champion knight who transformed into a humanoid monster.
　　 The other party wants to make a fool of himself in public!
Fortunately, Sean had made sufficient preparations, a strange light flashed on the arm armor, the blood of the arm was swollen, and the strength surged~EbookFREE.me~ unexpectedly entered a stalemate with Philip. The hand rattled with dislocation of bones.
　　 "Since both of you know each other, please let me in." Sophie Liya's arrival broke the deadlock. She turned a blind eye to the strange expressions of the two, and obviously didn't want to be out of touch.
　　 "General Sean, please."
　　 "Please, Lord Viscount."
　　 The two let go of their hands at the same time, with a little hypocritical politeness.
　　 In Sean’s mind about Philip’s evaluation and threat level, he raised a standard. This guy is far more hypocritical than ever.
　　 In other words, the character he showed before was just a disguise.
　　 One thing is true, the other party really doesn't have a good impression of Andis people.
　　 Sean re-examined Philip at the same time.
　　 Philip may not reevaluate Sean again. When the two passed by, he subconsciously looked at Sean's arm.
　　 What was that just now?
　　 The power of the bear of the Odin orcs of the bear clan?
　　 But the opponent is a pure Andean who can no longer be pure, how can he display the power of a bear?
　　 Philip just felt clearly that Sean was a great knight at best, and his strength was not small, but in an instant, the opponent's strength surged by a level, comparable to himself.
　　 This situation is very similar to the situation after the bear tribe Odin orcs turned on their racial talents.
　　 But Sean didn't have any racial characteristics of the bear tribe Odin orcs, which made Philip a bit confused.
　　 This guy must have some sort of secret technique from the Andeans.
