He does have a reason to be proud. Now it is not just a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity before him, but also a sense of superiority over his biggest rival.
St. George tried his best to go to the Manyu army leader in person. Didn't he just want to support an archduke believer to come to power, and then use him to win the faith of the army leader, so as to pave the way to the next pope.
As a result, I was not embarrassed or embarrassed. I was stuck in the quagmire of war and couldn't get away. I was even called to reprimand by Pope Delter himself. Now I don't know where he was sent.
As for Enoch, he only needs to gently pluck the political strings at the right time, and the opportunity will be delivered obediently.
The significance of taking down the Carthusian commander can be far higher than that of the Manyu army.
The enthusiastic Cardinal Inoko, made an exception to fill his glass again, and said with a bit of drunkenness: "Respect yourself, Your Excellency Inoko Notte."
At this time, the wine is not intoxicating and everyone is drunk.
Watching Cardinal Enoch's carriage leave, Grand Duke Buck's slightly humble waist straightened up bit by bit, and his smile converged, and his body was filled with an aura that no one would enter.
Half a year ago, even if the Holy See, the current Pope Delte, came to him, he couldn't let his head down.
Now he had to bow down to a cardinal who was in charge of only one diocese.
Duke Buck would never have thought of it before.
He, Buck Kingsley, the most capable grand prince in the history of the Kingsley family, and the man who will lead the Kingsley family to an unprecedented peak, how could he fall here?
Dreaming back at midnight, he was always thinking about this question.
The beginning of all nightmares seemed to start from peering into the swamp of despair and confronting the leader of the Yongye Army.
But do you regret it?
He does not regret the decision he made, because what he did was to make the Kingsley family to a new glory, which is his responsibility as the patriarch of the Kingsley family.
The only thing he regretted was that he underestimated the Yongye leader and Xiao En.
If he is asked to re-elect, he will do his best from the beginning.
But there are no ifs and no regrets in this world.
The only thing he can do now is to do his best to resolve the crisis in front of the Kingsley family. What is his dignity and face?
"Your Majesty, to do so is undoubtedly seeking skin with tigers. The intervention of the Holy See will only make the situation more complicated and may not achieve outstanding results. Even if this incident is resolved, the parasitic vine of the Holy See will be deeply rooted. Taking root in our territory, just like what they did to the Lancelot royal family, they can't breathe." Channing, the top thinker of the Kingsley family, has unconcealed worry on his face.
He did not approve of the cooperation between the Grand Duke Buck and the Holy See.
In his eyes, the threat of the Holy See is far above the leader of Yongye.
No matter how high the asking price of Yongyejun was, it would be a one-off sale. After the Kingsley family's conquest of the Eastern Army recovered, there was no need to look at their faces, and even some agreements would be torn up at the appropriate opportunity.
But getting in touch with the Holy See is different.
It is equivalent to putting a parasite that eats meat and blood on one's body. At first glance, it doesn't hurt much. As time goes by, this parasite will continue to multiply, and the damage it will cause will become more and more serious.
Looking at the current Lancelot royal family, they know that they occupy the most fertile territory in the continent, have the most population, and have the most powerful family support, and they can only let the Byron Alliance be so divided.
The Holy See played an important role in it. In addition to subjective influence, they also undermined the financial and military power of the Lancelot royal family.
Grand Duke Buck’s face changed several times, and finally he couldn’t help but growl: "Why don’t I understand this truth? But if you don’t get through the immediate difficulties, how can you talk about it? Others don’t know the Kingsley family’s situation, can you still I don’t know? Is the condition that Shaun’s put forward? Land, equipment, finances, this is three times at the Kingsley family. The knife is fatal. If I really agree, Kingsley The family not only has to be squeezed into juice, but also has to be slaves for more than ten years, with no chance of turning over."
When it came to the end, Grand Duke Buck's teeth grinded and rattled.
After two weeks of entanglement and negotiation, the conditions of the Yongye army leader finally changed, but instead of lowering, it changed the war compensation of 80 million royal gold coins in Article 3 to ten-year installments, and Allow all kinds of materials to be used for offsetting.
This one seems to be fully considered for the Kingsley family, so that they do not have that much financial pressure.
In the eyes of Grand Duke Buck, it was even more vicious to do so. This was a continuous drawing of blood from the Kingsley family, and it lasted ten years.
What is the annual financial income of the entire Kingsley family?
Just over thirty million.
Every year, one third is cut off to the Yongye army leader. They don't have to do anything this year. Tighten their belts and stay through.
In other words, the Kingsley family had no chance to stand up in these ten years.
Grand Duke Buck took a long breath and slightly suppressed the anger in his heart: "This is not the most critical issue. The most important thing is that our humble princess, who is the princess of life, stood by the other side from beginning to end, preparing Eat us to death. Now the so-called negotiations are all a pretense they use to delay time. They want to drag the food to Akmeser. No matter how harsh their conditions are, we have no second choice. We might as well take advantage of it. If you have time, you may be able to find more opportunities to get out if you confuse the water in this pool."
"But..." What else did the Channing fellow want to say.
Grand Duke Buck waved his hand impatiently and interrupted, "Needless to say, I have decided. Instead of discussing this, you might as well take more time and consider how to deal with Yongye’s military leader tomorrow. Your recent performance. But it’s not in line with the salary I paid you. You are the most famous bachelor in the city of knowledge, and you were beaten by a group of indigenous people. Don’t you feel ashamed of the city of knowledge?"
"That was just an accident. We didn't expect the other party to have so much research on the early history of the Ancient Andes Empire and the Byron Alliance. I have sent people to the City of Knowledge and invited people with relevant knowledge to help. Our City of Knowledge, You will never hinder your employer from learning. Please rest assured, your Majesty." The old face of the academician of Qianning has a bit of embarrassment that cannot be concealed.
During the negotiations with the leader of Yongye, the Kingsley family think tank led by him charged at the front line.
To be honest, they were a bit contemptuous at first. After all, the leader of the Yongye army was just a group of hairy boys who didn't even grow their hair. People like them even had books in the City of Knowledge. The museum is not qualified to enter, so they can only wipe the table and flush the toilet for their instructors.
The result of the confrontation can be imagined.
Although not a complete failure, the situation is quite ugly.
It's not that those young people are overwhelming them with all kinds of knowledge. In this regard, the other party's performance is quite satisfactory, and even the many conventions of the Byron League are not clear, and many jokes are made.
But the other party's information data is far from what they can compare.
The other party not only mastered its own detailed research data, but also controlled many of the Kingsley family.
Every time it seems to be a wild price, in fact, it is tight to the bottom line that the Calkingsley family can withstand. This bottom line is often not known to them before, but calculated afterwards.
In this case, they are even more passive when negotiating.
I don't know when it will start. The two sides have brought the focus of the dispute to the historical issues left over when the ancient Andes Empire changed to the Byron Alliance.
In this regard, the staff team led by Yongyejun caught them by surprise.
The other party is not only prepared for this aspect, some of the ways and levels of digging into the problem are very different from them, especially after careful consideration, many academicians even agree with the other party's point of view.
To put it nicely, many bachelors are relatively pure people.
To say it is ugly, it means that they are learning things and learning stupidly, and they are somewhat inferior in handling human relationships and sophistication.
When this kind of identification is shown in the negotiation, the scene becomes extremely embarrassing.
Not to mention the expression on Duke Buck's face, even the Channing Scholar's has changed into pig liver.
The bachelors produced in the City of Knowledge of the Warlock Alliance are famous all over the world because they do not like to take power like the Holy See and the Secret Society of Witches, and they are relatively aloof, but also because they have a service attitude similar to that of a merchant, and they provide after-sales service. If it is because of their own bachelor's knowledge that delays the employer's work, they will send more and more professional bachelor teams for free until the problem is solved.
"I hope your new academics can do a little better." Grand Duke Buck snorted, not entangled in this issue, then there is no more meaning to do it except for his careful attention.
The Channing University scholar pursed his lips, but he didn't mean to refute.
There are ten thousand things to say about this kind of thing, and it is not true to do a thing. When the professionals sent by the City of Knowledge arrive, Grand Duke Buck will naturally realize that they have been standing for so many years.
Grand Duke Buck’s secret exchanges with the Holy See were not hidden from the eyes and ears of the regent princess, even the Eagle Eyes of the Yongye Army leader.
Grand Duke Buck didn't mean to conceal it. This was an out-and-out conspiracy. Even if they got the news, there was no way to stop them.
Is it possible that they still have to care about the failure of Grand Duke Buck's beliefs. If they did, it would be equivalent to giving the Holy See to the Holy See so that they could intervene more smoothly.
The method used by the Holy See to intervene in this matter is still their usual method-side pressure.
They have a huge network of their own, through the believers to influence the people around them, especially their family members, and then affect more people, not to mention many nobles themselves are devout believers.
As the most experienced cardinal, Enoch has been operating in the royal capital Valesta for so many years, and his connections are scary.
Just one week after he reached an agreement with Grand Duke Buck, the wind direction of the royal capital Valesta unknowingly turned to Duke Buck's side.
Not only those nobles and nobles admonished to the regent princess and beat the drum.
Even many petty citizens have expressed infinite sympathy for the Kingsley family.
This kind of impact was clearly felt by Yongye Army Leader.
As a new force not long after its establishment, Yongye Junling does not have much ties to the Holy See, but their business contacts in the Byron Alliance do, especially in the high-end luxury market such as silk clothing.
Those vatican fanatics, even united to boycott the merchandise led by the Yongye Army.
After everything develops to a certain level, it will show amazing similarities, and market methods are no exception.
The only good news is that the luxury goods trade led by Yongyejun is in a primitive state, the market is not that big, and the supply is in short supply. There is no need to worry about slow sales at all. It will not have much impact in the short term, but in the long run, it is definitely not. What a good thing.
The main pressure is still from the regent princess Sophie Liya.
"How is the situation?" Sean asked with concern.
In the negotiations with Grand Duke Buck, the regent Princess Sophie Liya did not seem to have done anything. In fact, it was she who did nothing that allowed the Yongye Army leader to fight the Kingsley family in the Politburo. Step harder.
The leader of Yongye wanted to eat the swamp of despair, and Sufiliya's close support was indispensable. In the final analysis, it was still the same thing-rations.
Although Sean has already begun to make arrangements, trying to use the Huayu Plateau Food Merchant line to open the Huayu Plateau alternate business line, but it will be difficult to see the effect for a while.
The reason why spare is called spare is that it is a secondary choice as a last resort.
The Huayu Plateau’s own shortcomings lie there, and the problems that have plagued the Bryan family for many years will also become the problems of the Yongye army leader. That is, the complex terrain and difficult transportation make transportation costs high, especially for food products. Kind of bulky, heavy cargo.
Putting aside other things, just being transported from the Huayu Plateau will increase it by two to three times on the original basis, not to mention that road problems will limit the overall transportation volume.
After the Evernight Army takes the Despair Swamp, the demand for food will not only not decrease, but will double on the original basis.
It is only a matter of time before the desperate swamp, where the flooding river has receded, is becoming suitable for farming and returning to the Jiangnan Plain.
But before that, the leader of the Eternal Night must feed the Crocodile people of the Desperate Swamp.
The young reformers of the Crocodile tribe, why did they vote for the Yongye Army leader so cleanly?
Do they really agree with the leader of Yongye?
The answer is no.
This is only part of the reason, a small part of the reason, and more of being forced to do nothing.
The Yongye Army leader taught them their long-term vision, allowing them to see that if they left the Yongye Army leader, the Crocodile tribe would only fall into a more miserable situation.
Not only will the Yongye Army leader not get rid of the Regent Princess by eating the swamp of despair, but the two sides will become closer.
Sophie Liya also spotted this, and she spared no effort to support Sean.
In the world, there is no love for no reason, and no hate for no reason, especially when Sophia Liya is in this position.
Personal emotions only account for a small part of the decisive factor ~EbookFREE.me~ The most important thing is to proceed from the interests.
The benefits of supporting the Yongye Army leader are far less than supporting the Kingsley family.
How to choose is self-evident.
If it were to be replaced by Sean, he would do the same.
"The situation is not good. Those self-righteous guys, like flies, buzzed around me, constantly emphasizing the relationship between the royal family and the Kingsley family, the life and death of Byron, they asked the Kingsley family to trouble. At the time, I never saw them consider the so-called family relationship and Byron’s life and death. They were always in the front. It was Strech and Lancelot who bleed for Byron. They were just a group of people shrunk behind. coward."
Sophie Liya's face was as ugly as swallowing a fly. Not only was she disgusted by the shamelessness of the nobles, but also by the Holy See's method of stabbing a knife in the heart.
"Those brave guys dare to threaten me with taxes. They really think I dare not move them? As long as I give orders, many people are willing to step on their bodies."
