Volume 7 Mortals and Gods Chapter 800 and Chapter 2 The Kingdom of God (Part 1)
August, the commercial and trade center of the old world, Storm Fortress.
The charr army gradually approaches the Storm Fortress.
The situation was different now. The entire Storm Fortress was almost decorated with lights and decorations, using the most solemn etiquette and the highest standard of reception to welcome Archduke Fiona and her army.
In the August season, although the temperature was still very hot, the knights and soldiers could still bear it, but some people couldn't bear it.
Talleyrand was sweating profusely. He cursed the hot weather and occasionally emphasized that it would not be like this in the northern steppes.
The lame man was sitting in the awning of the carriage, his face slumped, sleepy and unable to sleep, his body tilted, looking quite funny.
The cripple thought in his mind that if he had the chance, he would change his carriage to one with a temperature control system.
Well, let's go ask the great mage Nielas Elan for help. It just so happened that he accepted a lot of bribes from the Albrex Empire this time, a temperature control system, and magic stone charging.

While the lame man was still thinking wildly, Fiona and Iros approached Talleyrand's carriage on their horses.
Fiona had a smile on her face and said meaningfully:
"Talleyrand, I remember I asked you to pick a half-blood elf war horse. Didn't I ask you to pull the carriage?"
Talleyrand quickly sat upright, took out the silk scarf in his arms, wiped his sweat, and explained:
"This is a good thing for me and my horse, Your Majesty the Grand Duke. The proud Charles war horse doesn't like a lame man who can't walk clearly as its owner, and I don't like to feel such strong heat under the sun.
."
"Hehehe."
Fiona smiled and pointed to the distance, where the people of Storm Fortress were preparing for the triumphal ceremony for the army and waiting under the scorching sun:
"Then why are they willing to feel such intense heat under the sun?"
"That's because they are businessmen, and businessmen are driven by profit-seeking nature. They smell the smell of wealth. Our people are full of loot, and businessmen can gain too much from selling stolen goods."
Talleyrand shook his head and took his cane from the side:

"Businessmen only do two things. The first is to seek to increase the value of their own wealth, and the second is to pursue greater profits. This is their nature. Of course, businessmen are also human beings, and they also have their own hobbies and families."
Fiona was silent for a moment, and Talleyrand simply smiled and said:
"His Excellency the Grand Duke is undoubtedly extremely wise. It is impossible for you not to know this. This is not like a problem for Your Excellency the Grand Duke. What happened that made you seek help from a lame man? Is there anything I can do to help you?"

"this."
Fiona placed a medal in front of Talleyrand, a Grand Cross First Class.
"For me?"
Talleyrand jumped up immediately. He followed Fiona in countless battles along the way, and finally won a second-class Lion Medal!
"It's not for you, it's given to these merchants by the Ciel."
Iros handed Talleyrand the Grand Cross of Gold, First Class, and the Grand Duchess smiled:
"We have a major task for you. This is a letter from Master Elan."

"Letter from Master Elam?"
Talleyrand suddenly jumped up from his seat. It was recognized by the entire Shire that one could offend the Grand Duke, but one could never offend Master Elam!
If she offends the Grand Duke of Shire, she will deal with him impartially, but not necessarily if she offends Master Elan.
"This task is left to you, Talleyrand."
Fiona smiled and said: "I know that you like to deal with money, and you are especially good at dealing with these businessmen and nobles, right?"
Talleyrand took Master Elam's letter. He read it carefully, sighed, and shook his head, his face full of admiration:
"I want to say, Your Majesty the Grand Duke, you have a genius magician, why didn't I think of it?"
"Master Elan's idea is very good, but it must be controlled within certain limits." Fiona's expression became serious: "After much thought, you are the only one who is suitable."
"Don't worry, Your Excellency, leave it to me!"
Talleyrand immediately became excited, and he quickly bowed: "I will assure you that I am the most suitable candidate. That is, Your Excellency, I need a certain degree of autonomy and a little flexibility."
"Flexibility? Like you took a gift of two carriages from Metternich?" Fiona nodded slightly, and he said meaningfully.
"But I can get you two hundred carriages from the negotiating table, Your Excellency."
Talleyrand said respectfully: "Leave it to me. I know how to deal with this group of businessmen, but, your Excellency, can you only get the first-class Golden Grand Cross at the highest level?"
"The Supreme Lady's Medal and the Holy Grail Medal cannot be awarded casually." Fiona shook her head.
"I see."
Three days later, Storm Fortress held the grandest banquet in the Grand Duke's mansion. Although Grand Duke Fiona did not attend due to excuses, all the Shire knights and nobles except him attended the banquet.
However, what really made the whole Storm Fortress boil was at the banquet. Gonzalez, the Chief Instructor of the Char, proudly showed off his Char Char Medal in public!
Fiona personally awarded Gonzalez two golden Grand Crosses to thank Gonzalez for his great contribution to the army in this war!
At the same time, Casanova, the president of the League of Gentlemen, was personally received by Fiona and awarded a golden Grand Cross and two medals!
When they appeared at the banquet with medals on their chests, all the nobles and big merchants in Storm Fortress stared wide-eyed.

In addition to a large amount of wealth and income, there is also a sense of identity from the upper class and the aristocratic core circle. This so-called sense of identity makes big businessmen flock to them.
Now that Gonzalez and Casanova have received medals, how can this not make big businessmen excited?
I really want Charles’s medal!
Medal, how can I get it?
Soon, a piece of gossip began to spread in Storm Fortress.
