Chapter 1569 Trump Card
Master Hall did not answer. This was beyond the scope of his ability to answer.
Master Dewey did not answer. He was thinking.
Unlike the two people who were silent and meditating hard, the Elf Queen's expression seemed much more relaxed.
She picked up the teapot with a contented expression, and respectfully poured a cup of tea for Master Dewey and Master Hall, then poured another cup for herself, and finally poured a cup for Emily and me.
Putting down the teapot, she raised the teacup, smiled with her red lips, and lightly sipped the edge of the cup. Her thin lips were only dipped in the warm tea, but the fragrant tea fragrance was inhaled into her nostrils. In an instant, her whole body felt comfortable. Such as her mood at the moment.
Compared to the Elf Queen, Master Dewey is not so happy. If a sophisticated Elf Queen hadn't appeared out of nowhere, who in Moonlight City would be qualified to negotiate business with her?
Even those mature and prudent elders had to lower their posture and bow to ask questions when they met Master Dewey, let alone the yellow-haired girl in front of them!
For this reason, Master Dewey was holding his breath.
If Master Dewey is unhappy, Master Hall will naturally not be happy either.
I can see the sadness and anger of the two masters at this moment, but I can't help him. This is really not a matter of position or identity, but that I really have no idea about the value of the trees in the Elf Forest.
Our understanding of them is, at best, nothing more than furniture and decoration.
But it is obvious that the three people in front of them are not considering the issue of gold coins in a simple sense, but economic issues that go beyond the scope of gold coins, or issues of national interest.
I only know the surface of these issues and have never explored them in depth. If I speak rashly, I will definitely be scolded as a troublemaker. It is better to squat in the corner and draw circles.
I was drawing circles in a happy mood when a voice suddenly came into my ears: "Xiao Yi, let me tell you, do you have any property that you can use now?"
"Huh?" When I looked up, I saw Master Dewey looking at me with burning eyes, full of expectation.
"Industry?" I scratched my hair, thought for a while, and said, "The only industry I can transfer now is a jewelry store."
"I'm not talking about business-related industries." Master Dewey shook his head and said, "I'm talking about other aspects, such as the military industry."
"Oh" I understood and nodded: "The previous assistance team is now all under my control. They should be the only military industry that I can mobilize at will so far."
Master Dewey nodded and asked, "What is this team doing every day now?"
"Invent mechanical puppets" I said: "Use various materials to create different types of puppets. There are only three types of puppets manufactured at this stage, reconnaissance type, combat type and defense type."
"Oh?" Master Dewey became interested: "How is your combat capability?"
I thought for a while and said: "I remember a few months ago, they reported to me that the puppet's combat power can rival that of an adventurer of about level five."
"A level five adventurer?" After hearing this, Master Dewey pondered for a moment and suddenly laughed: "These guys are really good at tinkering."
After that, he asked me again: "If I ask you for this team now, will you give them to me?"
"Don't be ridiculous." I waved my hand, Master Dewey's face turned slightly stiff.
I didn't care about the change in his expression and continued: "This team belongs to you, so you still talk to me about asking for it or not. How tasteless."
After hearing what I said, Master Dewey's face softened, he turned to the Elf Queen, and said with a smile: "I wonder if Her Majesty the Queen is interested in the assistance team stationed in Moonlight City?"
The Elf Queen had just put down the tea cup and was enjoying the endless aftertaste of the tea juice soaking into her mouth. When she heard Master Dewey's words, she was stunned for a moment and said: "It is good to assist the team, but after all, they are small and cannot represent the overall technological level. "
"At least in terms of puppets, that team has the most cutting-edge technological level so far." Master Dewey said in a sincere tone: "Technology is infinite, magic is infinite, but manpower is limited, what can be mastered, what can be exchanged , are all limited, I hope Her Majesty the Queen will do what you can, and it is best to do what is appropriate, and do not ruin the friendship between us because of greed."
I sneered secretly and said with disdain in my heart: What kind of friendship is just a need for interests.
The atmosphere of the room changes again.
This time, it was the Elf Queen who was in trouble, but Master Dewey and Master Hall were content.
The Goblin Assistance Team can be said to be a hidden trump card. Before, both the Elf Queen and others thought they had planned this team as an industry in Moonlight City, and even arranged for them to join the team after the Goblin Queen returned for a period of time. Moonlight City's scientific research institution wants them to pass on what they know to the elves and fairies in order to increase Moonlight City's overall strength.
Later, after my request, the Fairy Queen returned the assisting team to me, but even so, she still arranged for many fairy adventurers to keep their hands around, in order to protect the safety of international friends, but in fact, they secretly monitored them to observe whether there was a new generation. Puppet development appears.
Until this time, the Elf Queen and others still believed that although the goblin assistance team was not exclusively a force of Moonlight City, they were after all a private team belonging to me, a foreign elder. If we round about it, they were still affiliated with Moonlight. The weaving of the city, but the person who ordered them was not the highest officer of Moonlight City, but me, the elder.
Not much difference.
But just now, after I clarified my relationship with the goblin assistance team in one sentence, the Elf Queen realized that her unauthorized imagination was completely different from the reality.
Yes, the purpose of the goblin assistance team stationed in Moonlight City from the beginning was to assist Moonlight City in designing the most advanced generation of puppets at the time. When they taught the design core, manufacturing steps and detailed data to those elves, they He has completed his mission.
Although they were still retained later, they no longer had any agreement with Moonlight City. They only stayed in the territory created by the Fairy Queen as auxiliary Master Dewey's adopted son. Their real master was still Master Dewey alone.
Thinking of this, the Elf Queen's expression changed slightly. She knew that she might become passive because of ignoring this.
If we had known this, we should have agreed to a quarter of the export volume from the beginning. It is estimated that even if it requires half of the export volume, there is still room for discussion.
If he agrees to this price, at least Master Dewey will not use the goblin assistance team as a bargaining chip to ask him for the price.
As long as you help the team stay in Moonlight City, even if you can't get their latest scientific research technology openly, you can always steal it through some secret means as long as you think of a way.
Thinking of this, the Elf Queen couldn't help but feel sad.
Turning around, I was still blinded by greed.
