Old Sword Master

After Wood got the part, of course he also gave Little Bazin some fragments as spoils of war. The hull of the hull was scattered all over the sea. Wood was basically impossible to prevent others from getting it, not only the little Bazin just next to it. I got it with the crew, even the cavalry team that had been around for a few days.

The entire spaceship was in a mess.

Most of these fragments were collected by Wood, and basically compensated for 5 thaler levels according to everyone present. The price is not high compared to the value of the fragments, but after all, this is the spaceship that Wood killed. Most of the people gave the fragments to Wood, although some people inevitably hid them privately, but Wood didn’t care about it at all at the time. He went deep into the seabed and got a few important things on the ship.

Of course, those are all taken to Venice to deal with.

“Director Bazin, or 100 talers, I will accept this.” Ah Huang finally made an offer.

“Just dream about it!” Little Bazin said that this is a baby, and your expression is embarrassing. “I’m going to rest. Let President Li Te come and talk to Wood.”

Little Bazin took a triumphant catwalk after speaking, and walked onto the deck with his head up (standing tǐng) (胸xiōng).

Huang watched for a long time, and couldn’t forget the silver metal texture of brilliant lights and vibrant colors.

“Uncle Hei, Uncle Hei, do you have this metal piece too? There are a lot of 100 talers.” Huang continued to work hard.

“This piece is so good, how can I give you a piece of 100 talers!” Uncle Hei looked sincere, “I have to add more money.”

…

Venice, 4 Seasons Grand Hotel.

The hotel manager is reporting to Harna, and Ladislaus is reviewing important documents sent from Vienna in the nearby office.

The hotel manager finished the report, and Hannah then relayed the report to Ladislaus with a strange expression on her face.

“Is coming to that many red-clothed Archbishop all at once?” Ladislaus learned that several red-clothed Archbishops were coming to Venice to participate in the trade fair, and he immediately smiled, although most of the direct benefits of this matter are returned. Lit’s, but he can also get a lot, not to mention long-term benefits. Since the establishment of the land bridge, Venice is no longer an island. As a peninsula, Venice and the Austrian Duchy, which controls a large area of ​​northern Italy, are naturally One, and this is not all the benefits, “Who, who do you say is willing to give out 48 talers a day to take this (set tào) room?

“It’s the Medici red-clothed Archbishop.” Harna reported.

“Medici.” Ladislaus said and touched the dolphin seal he put on the table. When he was acting as a cousin, he always used the dolphin seal of his grandmother, Pa Qi Family. These guys are indeed rich.”

Chapter 506 The decisive action of red-clothed Archbishops

Harna and Ladislaus are in the regency (set tào) room, discussing a rich red-clothed Archbishop.

“Medici red-clothed Archbishop, do I want to see him?” Harna didn’t want to give up her room at all, but she was afraid that her cousin would think she was too wasteful.

“See, but must strictly reject his delusion and tell him this is a dignified provocation to the Austrian Duchy.” But Ladislaus answered simply this time.

“Really not? The 96 talers, anyway, no one knows you are there, so let everyone look down on me, a woman who is greedy for money.” Of course, Harna is a very wealthy lady, even in Austria. Duchy is like this, and some even say that she may be one of the richest ladies in Europa.

Arranging private property for Her Royal Highness and controlling part of the investment of the Doria family in Austria. She has been handling these two tasks in an orderly manner.

“No.” Ladislaus shook his head. “This matter is more important than money.”

The entire national strength of the Austrian Duchy is concentrated on dealing with the Ottoman Empire and the Kingdom of Poland.

Although the capture of Belgrade greatly improved the situation of the Austrian Duchy, and also allowed Ladislaus, who succeeded to the throne from a distant house, to completely secure his position, neither the emperor nor any external force could threaten his throne. He is now The members of the Council of State can be removed and replaced at will, and cronies and staff can be placed in accordance with their own will.

Of course, being able does not mean that you must do it. The current state councilors are still the same.

Free will is also based on his own interests. For example, he has been trying to include a Czech and a Northern Italian as the State Councilor recently, but he has been procrastinating and undecided. This matter needs to be carefully weighed.

The Ottoman Empire is still a terrifying enemy, and Austria’s victory greatly stimulated the Polish court, especially Vienna’s contact with Moscow, and Ladislaus seized Belgrade. At the Conference of the Roman Empire, the Poles were all asked to reconsider their policy on the Teutonic Knights and reiterated that the Hohenzollern family’s privatization reform of the Teutonic Knights was illegal. The Prussian duchy was only the Poles that undermined the German national unity and prosperity. Puppet, a false regime.

In response, relations between Poland and Ottomans are rapidly heating up. Like France, Poland has also sent envoys to Istanbul several times and semi-openly.

Ladislaus has to invest more than 30000 talers in Poland every year. First, he directly funded some fanatical Dark Sun followers and conservative ancient nobles who resolutely opposed cooperating with the Ottomans. At the same time, he did his best to promote these crimes in the Ottoman Empire.

There is also the world of Berry. The cash flow of that sub-plane is relatively stable. If the investment is reduced and the tax rate is increased, positive cash flow can be achieved. That is, the tax provided by the world of Berry for the Austrian Duchy exceeds the local tax. Government spending.

But Ladislaus is not willing to get money from the Berry World so eagerly. He always tells Harna that the powerful elves are still coveting and threatening the Berry World, and investing a little more money can get security and stability.

Therefore, he insisted on investing development funds in Berryworld to expand human settlements. Only with spacious, safe, and supportive settlements, the population will rise steadily. Of course, necessary guidance is also necessary, Ladislau He couldn’t import how many people from his native country to the world of Berry, so he could only absorb the Native Person from the world of Berry to enter the rule of the Austrian Duchy, and grant civil rights to some contributing and capable half-elves and goblins.

And civil rights all cost money. Give slaves, weaves, and give various preferential treatments, from children’s educational opportunities to easy-to-cultivate land. The corresponding thing is to build schools to train teachers and dig ditches to clean up rivers, and then the elves will come again. At that time, citizens will have things that must be protected.

These things all cost money, and the money-raising work is Harna’s, of course, part of it, but Ladislaus thinks of ways to do it himself.

“What about the other red-clothed Archbishops?” Harna asked.

“They want my (set of tào) room too?” Ladislaus picked up his beautiful eyebrows, whether they were placed flat on their eyes or slightly raised, they were very suitable.

“No, no, they are not at all this idea, but several other red-clothed Archbishops hope that I can coordinate and help them so that they can get a better hotel, such as an ambassador (set tào) room.” Harna said.

Even if Ladislaus is absent, it would be an excessive act to request this regency (set tào) room. However, the rooms in the Venice Hotel are quite insufficient, especially when the high-end rooms have been sold out. It’s not unreasonable to ask the hotel’s Boss to coordinate and increase the price to buy the next Level 1 ambassador (set tào) room.

“Then you can meet with them, discuss it, and give reasonable compensation to the original tenants. Several red-clothed Archbishops will see you separately.” Ladislaus said to Harna, “Look again by the way. See what they want.”

The last half sentence is the point.

The transfer of the room is as it should be by rights. The ambassadors (set tào) live in the rooms of either foreign ambassadors, or a few large businessmen from Austria or Northern Italy, or they live below if the source is unknown. The mysterious person in the room might have something to follow, but since they don’t dare to fantasize, then in front of the Great Duchy in Austria and Dark Sun Church in Rome, they must definitely give way. It’s a normal thing, and it’s not a little troublesome. The way.

“En.” Of course, Harna also understands that it is a trivial matter to make a room, so a lot of red-clothed Archbishops together in Venice, it must be a big picture.

After sending off to see Harna of the red-clothed Archbishop, Ladislaus called his drow guard, Jarlaxle, the deputy director of the Austrian Intelligence Agency.
