Warhammer Throne

Inside the central pavilion of the pool of the famous Vorotti Garden in Marienburg Palace area, the cool breeze is blowing, the summer night sky is very bright, and there are many cicadas crying. Ryan and others sit in the middle of the pavilion, drinking tea together, and It's quite pleasant.

"It is difficult to exchange a large number of dwarf gold coins on the market now." Casanova came up with his own plan: "If you really want to try to exchange 38,000 dwarf gold coins, the current amount on the black market is 1:3.5 to 1:3.8, this is a price that we cannot accept. In this way, your Majesty, if possible, we hope to be able to pay the compensation according to the situation when the dwarf ordered the book of hatred, that is, the situation of 1:2.5. If so, then the amount of compensation It's 97,000 golden marks. Let's round up and get a price of one hundred thousand golden marks. How about?"

One hundred thousand? Ryan thought that one hundred thousand is not unacceptable. Originally, when Bellegar wrote the book of hatred, the exchange rate of gold coins was 1:2.5 to 1:3. If Marienburg was willing to pay 100,000 gold marks, it could still be discussed. This was originally a blackmail and revenge.

In essence, Ryan is unwilling to push Marienburg too quickly for three reasons.

First, as Li Jue Ye said, Marienburg is the commercial center of the old world, and Brittany, including the two big trench merchants Hadrian and Oliver under Ryan’s command, have big business here. If If it really fights, everyone will be affected.

Second, Ryan has always known that the family of Emperor Carl’s Rick Grand Prince has been trying to recover Marienburg since he took the throne. If Marienburg is really pushed to a desperate situation, it is likely to give the emperor a chance to intervene in Marienburg’s internal affairs. This is something Ryan does not want to see, and it is not in the national interest of Bretania.

Third, Targris has now reached the great ocean coast, and it is only a week away from Marienburg. The really important thing is to be invited to visit Osuan. The mustaches can run wild in Marienburg. The reason is also that Fogen and his elite army, as well as the giant armored ship on the dock, are supporting the young Thorgrin, but it is not appropriate if the time is too long.

Therefore, the business princes took the initiative to make peace, which is what Ryan would like to see.

"One hundred thousand, I'll talk to the dwarf." Ryan said lightly: "As for the specific time, I also need a certain time."

"One hundred and eight thousand gold marks, this is the bottom line." Viscount Casanova bowed respectfully: "As for time, can you give us one more week? We will let Hugemans hurry up and raise funds and initiate by the way. The whole city is fined to raise money so that Marienburg can tide over the difficulties. The citizens will be willing to donate generously, I promise."

"Give it one more week, that is, from today, give it an extra ten days?" Ryan thought for a while and nodded slowly, which was considered approval.

"Yes." Casanova nodded repeatedly: "Exactly."

"That's all, let's split up. I will convince the dwarves, and you, will convince the business princes of the upper and lower houses." Ryan stretched out his hand: "That's it, happy cooperation."

"Happy cooperation." Casanova let out a sigh of relief, and stretched out his hand to shake Ryan.

An oral agreement is barely reached. Next, it depends on how the two parties implement it.

After speaking, it was getting late, and Ryan could see that Lord Li of Aurora seemed to have something to say to Viscount Casanova, so he left first.

In the carriage returning, Sulia in the carriage took Ryan's big hand, leaned against her husband's arms, and said softly: "Ryan, would you be so easy to agree to a one-week delay?"

"How much time do you have to raise money for Marienburg?" Ryan held his wife in his arms with a look of affection, and the King of Knight frowned, and easily told Suria of his three points of view.

"I know what you said." Su Liya nodded slightly, and she stretched out a jade finger wrapped in white lace gloves on Ryan's forehead: "I mean, you promised it a little too easy. One point, to say that one week is extended is one week."

"Because Targris will be there in a week at most." Ryan murmured: "Tagris added the fleet supply and explained the task. It is almost three days, and it adds up to ten days. This is the case of Marienburg. Just over, we can set off when we get the money."

"Are you all considered good?" Su Liya couldn't help but snickered: "Is it really going to go to sea with so much money? The little hammer will also go with us?"

"Isn't that certain? Bellegar has obviously made up his mind to send his son to me to experience it. Seeing more people and more things, there are only benefits and no harm." Ryan laughed: "Moreover, I don't like Emperor Karl stepping in, Suria, my dear, guess what, does our imperial emperor have any thoughts about Marienburg?"

"The heart of Karl, everyone knows, he has tried to take back Marienburg many times since his grandfather." Ryan stretched out his hand and gently wiped the oil on his wife's perfect silky legs, feeling the smooth and charming touch of silk stockings. The Knight King sighed: "Let me tell you, Su Liya, if Karl had a sum of money in his hands, he would have taken the initiative to show up at Marienburg by this time."

"Even if the emperor's current court is nervous, and something such a big deal has happened, he should be on the way to Marienburg." Ryan hugged Su Liya and smiled at his wife: "Or, let's fight. A bet?"

"Why laugh like a dog, not good at all, bet? What are you betting on?" Su Liya really felt that Ryan had changed, and the female knight said to her husband, "If you want to bet, then I will choose. By the way, let me make an offer, Ryan, I am a female knight of Bretania! I have the right to choose!"

"Hey, dear, you are a female knight, so what do you mean is, I am a horse?" Ryan said half-jokingly.

"Ryan, you guy!" Su Liya was flushed by her husband's words. She kicked Ryan's calf with a pair of beautiful long legs in silk stockings: "Why is it always not serious?"

"I'm not serious." Ryan smiled and hugged his wife tightly: "I'm not serious, that is the atmosphere between our husband and wife, Su Liya, I apologize for what happened before. The thing before is me. We didn’t do it right. Our husband and wife are one body, and we shouldn’t be wary of each other and confront each other.”

"I have something wrong, too." Su Liya couldn't help but her nose was a little sour after hearing it: "I still don't know much about the foster father. He asked me, and I just... stupidly said it all."

Ryan nodded slowly, and the couple smiled at each other, and the previous story was finally turned over.

Ten minutes later, the carriage returned to the small single building at 53 Amber Avenue. Ryan pulled Sulia off the carriage, and the dark elf Olika came out wearing a black and white maid outfit and white velvet pantyhose. Greeted, Olica looked at Su Liya's expression, her eyes flashed with clarity and envy, she said sweetly: "Master, madam, are you back?"

"Well, we are back." Ryan also took Olica's hand and motioned to go in together.

When he returned home and settled down, Ryan noticed that Fogen was not there. He asked Karona, the princess of the wood elf, "Where is my brother?"

Karona did not know where to get a new set of lengthened maid outfits. It was black and white like Olica, except that the stockings were flesh-colored suspenders with back stitching and jacquard patterns. She heard Ryan’s When asked, he told Ryan and the others what Fukun had done with a bit of displeasure.

To put it simply, Faugen went to the "Golden Club", the largest gathering of nobles in Marienburg, where he played and sang. His rich knowledge, strong artistic cells, elegant manners, and noble conversation made him quickly Become the darling of all Marienburg.

In addition, Faugan spent the entire day at Marienburg’s largest tabletop chess tournament club. He was aliased as "Alpha Dog". He won 25 games in a row and won the title of Marienburg. The highest winning streak in the history of a table game club.

"Well, brother is so cool."

…………I am the dividing line of twenty-five consecutive victories…………

At the same time, the business princes of Marienburg finally learned from Viscount Casanova about the conditions offered by Ryan and others.

One hundred and eight thousand gold marks will be settled within ten days.

"This is impossible! Never!" While the other business princes were still frowning and not thinking about it, Van Hugemans, the president of the Judun Chamber of Commerce, was outraged after receiving the news at home. Angrily grabbed the high-quality lacquerware imported from Nipeng, and smashed it on the ground fiercely: "I want to blackmail me twenty or thirty thousand gold marks with just a few words. Are these shorties and chivalrous patients also worthy?"

The angry descendant of Judun’s royal family made a mess in his home. After he had a fire, the butler came up: "Master, what should I do next? We still have a balance in the bank, or... ?"

"I'm putting you up!" Hugmans almost slapped his housekeeper on the face. With supreme perseverance, he stopped his anger, and the president of the Judun Chamber of Commerce gasped hard: " No, I will never admit defeat. I am the blood of King Jutnis. How can our Judden family accept such humiliating regulations?"

Hugmans is different from other business princes in Marienburg. He is a nobleman with the title of Grand Earl. There are also many estates around Marienburg. Therefore, he is not entirely a businessman. He still retains a little nobility. proud.

"Assemble, rally!" Hugmans immediately ordered his own private army to assemble. The Judun Chamber of Commerce relied on huge funds to maintain a very powerful private army of about 800 people. And equipped with a large number of firearms: "Sent out, all the way, to control the iron armored ship at the pier! Another passer-by, go and encircle me the Dwarf Craftsman Association!"

"But... but the president, if you do this..." The butler hurried up to persuade: "It's like a declaration of war!"

"I didn't declare war, I just want them to understand that my Judun Chamber of Commerce is not easy to bully!" Hugmans shouted angrily: "I really want to fight, I'm not afraid! I don't accept this price. Let's talk about it again! This time I will talk in person!"

"This..." The butler was stunned.

Hugmans did not wait for the butler to say anything. He gave an order and the Judun Chamber of Commerce building immediately began the assembly of the army.

Just like Hugmans, after hearing the results of the negotiation, the Judden Chamber of Commerce was trembling with anger, cold sweats and cold hands and feet on a hot day. How can this society be better? How can we businessmen survive? Only when you are satisfied, your tears flowed down. This country is full of oppression of businessmen. When can businessmen really stand up?

Soon, grief and unwilling anger spread throughout the entire Judun Guard, and an army was assembled here.

After making some preparations, the Judden Guard was ready to set off, and Hugemans personally led the team: "We are fighting with the mustaches!"

These people also sang songs.

"The waves in the Rick River are turbulent, and the gray mountains are flying chaotically~"

"Faggy Shiwu is independent, and his righteous anger burns with blood~"

"The dwarf knight is proud of the family, there are really few people worrying about the country~"

In the night of Marienburg, a new wave turned up.

But the army had just set off and met a group of people on a street corner. The group had just entered Marienburg, and most of them had not heard of their arrival.

"If it weren’t for your majesty to personally name it, I really don’t want to come to Marienburg again. The last time I saw the little bunny Ryan here was many years ago. At that time, I could hold his head and now I want to call His Majesty the King." Ivan Ferdinand, Duke of Griffon, followed a dozen griffon riders. He reluctantly said: "Of course, I am still willing to clean up those business princes."

"Hahahaha~ This time it’s too much trouble, otherwise I won’t come." The Emperor Karl-Franz was followed by a team of Rick guards, with a hearty smile on the emperor’s face as always: "Heilberg is very opposed to my personal visit to Marienburg, but I hope to take this opportunity to talk to Ryan. I heard that he has made a lot of profits in the Great Eight Peaks Expedition this time. Can you do something for me? Loan business? Hahahaha~"

"Your Majesty, King Ryan is a general person, he will understand your difficulties." The chief royal wizard of the empire, the great alchemist, the rebuilder of the empire Thor and the leader of the alchemy school, Baiershaze-Gael He especially leaned on Volan's staff, wearing a golden robe, and followed the emperor's side: "Your Majesty, there seems to be singing nearby."

"It's so late, why do you gather people to sing? I know Marienburg has no curfew, but are you not afraid of disturbing the people?" Karl-Franz also didn't understand the singing nearby.

However, the next second, the two groups of people who met at the corner of the street collided face-to-face.

The emperor, the Duke of Griffins, the chief wizard, plus their Rick Guards, Griffin Riders, and Gelt’s Thor leaders—the Elderard Pike Guards looked at each other with a bewildered look. A heavily armed enemy coming.

The soldiers of the Judden Guard and the Hugmans, descendants of the Judden clan, looked at the army that blocked their way. Obviously, the other party was fully armed and prepared. These private armies showed their soldiers without hesitation. blade.

In the dark night, this street has no magic lights, only a little starlight and a few torches. No one can see who is clearly, only that the other party is not his own.

Ludwig Schwarzhammer, the emperor’s flag officer, immediately stopped the bewildered emperor behind him: "Protect the emperor! Protect the emperor!"

"Your Majesty, please step back!" Baiershaze-Geert immediately took two steps forward: "An assassination! A premeditated assassination! It's time for these heretics to **** destruction!"

"Knights, get ready to fight!" Ivan, Duke of Griffin, immediately drew out his Griffin True Silver Holy Sword.

In this way, before both parties had time to react, a fierce battle fought directly on the streets of Marienburg!
