Perhaps it was because this gift made Battalion Commander Davidson a little excited. In short, he talked a lot in front of Suldak, and in the end he felt that by accepting ten magic crystals, he must show his worth.
His character is somewhat rigid. He has served in the military camp for many years and has recognized the law of "whatever you give will be rewarded."
After drinking two cups of lemon tea, Suldak saw the buildings and various military facilities at Camp No. 19 and felt quite satisfied. He originally thought that when the Alliance Lord Army entered the camp, Battalion Commander Davidson could tell the soldiers
They have fully opened the camp, including the shooting range and knight training ground. This magic crystal is regarded as one month's venue rental fee.
You must know that Surdak's 50,000 lord army may have to live here for more than half a month. From the perspective of accommodation fees alone, ten magic crystals are really nothing.
But when he delivered these ten magic crystals to Battalion Commander Davidson, it inevitably made Battalion Commander Davidson think a little bit more: 'Why am I worth so many magic crystals?'
Battalion Commander Davidson said so many words to Suldak, but he was actually thinking about one thing over and over in his heart, and Suldak did not make any other requests until he left.
Just when Suldak was about to leave the camp on horseback, Battalion Commander Davidson stood in front of the horse and couldn't help but said to Suldak: "Your Majesty, there are some places in Camp No. 19 that you haven't seen. If
If you have time, I would like to ask you to visit again..."
Surdak reined in the horse. Although he was a little surprised, he still agreed: "Okay, it just so happens that there is nothing else to do today!"
"Then please come with me..." Battalion Commander Davidson got on his horse and led Surdak to the arched material warehouses on the easternmost side of the military camp. Previously, Battalion Commander Davidson introduced Surdak to this place.
There are four hundred-meter-long material warehouses, and not much else is said.
At that time, when I opened the door of a warehouse, it was also empty inside, with almost nothing else except dust.
There are three warehouses left, and Battalion Commander Davidson only said that two of them contain supplies for Camp No. 19 and cannot be opened to the public for the time being.
Now, Battalion Commander Davidson led Suldak to the front of the two warehouses. There were guards guarding the doors, which obviously meant that there were some supplies inside the warehouses.
Battalion Commander Davidson walked over and pushed away the two guards. He took out a bunch of keys from his arms and opened the warehouse door...
With a 'clatter', the thick wooden door of the warehouse was pushed open by Battalion Commander Davidson alone. The hinges of the door had not been greased for a long time, and it made an uncomfortable creaking sound when it was opened.
Battalion Commander Davidson and Suldak walked into the warehouse. Suldak found that in addition to being covered with dust, there were indeed many supplies covered with bitter cloth.
Battalion Commander Davidson jumped on a pile of wooden boxes and lifted off a large piece of dustproof cloth, revealing the large wooden boxes stacked inside. He introduced to Suldak:
"These supplies are all left over from some of the lords' armies after they conquered the plane. Some of the supplies were left here because the lords' army won and the items left in the garrison camp were unwilling to be taken away. Some of the supplies were left here because the lords had won.
The army was defeated in the plane, the whole army was destroyed, and even the people who returned to the garrison camp to collect the remaining supplies did not survive."
"Camp No. 19 has been idle in recent years, and these supplies have been there for several years. Probably the families of those lords don't know that there are still so many supplies here!"
He smiled at Surdak and then said: "Haha, Earl Surdak, since you are going to the Bailin plane, you can take away whatever you need here, but I only have one
Conditions, you need to pay a small storage fee for any supplies you take away, which can be regarded as a benefit I seek for the soldiers guarding the No. 19 garrison camp."
Surdak casually opened a corner of the Kubu, and there was another neat wooden box inside.
"Are you just keeping these supplies?" Surdak asked casually.
Battalion Commander Davidson grinned, with a hint of slyness in his eyes, and said frankly: "How can we not! We would have sold out all the things we could sell, otherwise we would have even bought houses in the city with the salary from the military.
I can't afford it, let alone get a wife or something. The rest of this is not what the businessmen outside can afford, and even if I am given a pardon, I dare not sell it!"
Hearing what Battalion Commander Davidson said, Suldak was a little curious about what supplies were inside the wooden box. Suldak completely opened a piece of bitter cloth. At this time, Battalion Commander Davidson also found a piece of cloth from the side of the wooden box.
With the crowbar, Surdak gave up and used the broadsword at his waist to cut open the wooden box. As the lid of the wooden box was opened by the crowbar, there were actually some war machines wrapped in oil paper.
Surdak opened the oil paper wrapped on it, revealing a crossbow arm, which was also covered with fine magic runes.
"Is this a magic bed crossbow?" Surdak asked with his eyes widened.
Battalion Commander Davidson nodded and added: "There are also magic catapults over there, which are relatively bulky. These things are not only controlled goods in Bena Province, but also in the Green Empire. No businessman dares to sell them.
These materials are traded in the market, so they will always exist here."
"Can I take these away?" Surdak asked curiously.
"Of course, you are going to participate in the plane war, and you are qualified to move these materials anywhere. Don't worry about their ownership. After you transport them, there will be a corresponding entry and exit record here to prove these
You brought the supplies in, and we also received a storage fee." Battalion Commander Davidson said to Suldak.
Suldak lowered his head and considered it for a moment, then stretched out his hand and smiled at Battalion Commander Davidson and said: "Then... I wish us a happy cooperation this time!"
Battalion Commander Davidson stretched out his hand very happily and clasped his hands tightly.
“A pleasure to work with!”
…
Suldak did not hide this from Marquis Luther, and he also asked Marquis Luther whether he should take these unused supplies.
The study room was brightly lit, and Suldak sat on the sofa and concentrated on eating the exquisite refreshments in front of him.
Marquis Luther thought for a while, raised his head and said to Suldak:
"Since the other party is going to give these supplies to you, then you should take them generously. I think he probably doesn't want to cause trouble for himself. And even if there is trouble, it will not affect you. I will help you out in the military department. Trouble
It will only be for the No. 19 military camp, so if there are any supplies in there that your lord’s army needs, you might as well move them all and I’ll help you get a pass.”
Suldak swallowed the cake in his mouth and nodded in agreement: "Okay, I understand."
"Although this time you went to the Bailin plane to open up unknown areas, today is different from the past. Speaking of which, I hope you can develop the Ganbu plane well. You know what I mean...right?" Marquis Luther finished.
He waved his hand and asked the butler to pour Suldak another cup of milk tea.
Surdak knew the meaning of Marquis Luther's words. It was said that the child in Hathaway's belly would be the successor of the Ganbu plane, so Marquis Luther hoped that Surdak could be in the plane.
In terms of development, we can invest more energy.
Surdak smiled and said: "I understand, and I already have a comprehensive plan to develop the Ganbu plane. Even if I am not in Luyint City at the moment, this development plan will continue.
Before the end of the year, I will probably be able to restore the economic level of Ganbu Plane to its pre-war state."
Marquis Luther said doubtfully: "I have heard about some of the new policies you implemented in Mukuso, and I also know that last year you implemented almost a full-scale tax-free policy. I have been worried that your city hall in the Ganbu plane will collapse because of this.
, but now it seems that Mukuso’s development momentum is better than what I saw. Can you be more specific?”
Suldak took up the topic and said: "Although it is tax-free, it also attracted a large number of business groups. The business groups entered Mukuso, which not only drove the local economy, but also stimulated the real estate prices of the city's street shops. In fact,
, after Mukuso City fell into ruins, the city hall was the largest owner of the street shops in Mukuso City. We sold or rented these shops to merchants, and the income was more than the previous annual tax revenue.
"
"I have never governed a city, and I don't understand much of what you are talking about, but it seems that the results should be pretty good."
All of Marquis Luther's achievements in his life have been in the army, and he is not proficient in city management, otherwise he would not have let Count Lex Cushing govern Luyint City.
Surdak was still somewhat proud of the development of Mukuso City. At this time, he said: "From the current perspective, the results are still very good, and now the inner city has been restored. In the past, there was a large area outside the Mukuso City Wall.
Slums, these slums are currently undergoing systematic transformation, and I also plan to build a wall outside the slums to expand all the slums around Mukuso..."
Looking at the young knight chatting in front of him, Marquis Luther seemed to see his younger self continuing...
I thought he was just a knight with the power of the Holy Light, but I didn't expect that he would do very well after becoming a commander...
I thought that after he became the commander, he could help him get a piece of territory in the Bailin plane and make him a noble lord, but I didn't expect that he would actually go to the Ganbu plane and take the opportunity to occupy the entire plane...
He originally thought that as a plane lord, he would be hindered by these daily chores, but he did not expect that the two connected cities he ruled were developing rapidly, and on the other hand, he actually had the energy to advance into the Bailin plane...
…
It seems that Suldak can bring some surprises to Marquis Luther every time.
