Chapter 2840 Looking back on the past distribution plan
After all the directors had left, Xia Duo said, "There are many new faces today, all sent by the three-faced councilors of Tianshui?"
"Well, in the past they were under the management of the Seven Towers. Now that they are independent, they require power and resources that they have not obtained before. This is not only the case for me, but also for other agencies under the parliament."
Speaking of this, Iolum held back a sigh. When the great arcanists from the three dimensions of Sweetwater first came back, they all behaved modestly and politely, but when the structure of the council was determined, they became restless again.
It can't be said that they are restless. In theory, this is their right, but it would be difficult to ask for traceability. The Seven Towers believe that they have already given compensation and will not make any additional concessions.
As for the others, they don't owe these great arcanists from the three dimensions of Tianshui, so naturally they won't give in.
And resources cannot be conjured out of thin air, so they have been wrangling all day long, and now the various agencies under Severington Council are having trouble living.
But it happened that the three members of Tianshui relied on the parliamentary mechanism and began to form a group. This made the local members very dissatisfied, but there was nothing they could do. They couldn't drag them out to fight!
Fortunately, Iolum now only has to worry about the issue of the Austrian and French Federation. As for matters outside the Austrian and French Federation, since the Seven Towers do not want to give up this power, they need to balance it, otherwise the new alliance will
If it becomes a piece of paper, that is not a good thing for everyone.
Thinking of how troubled everyone in the Seven Towers was, Iolum felt somewhat relieved.
"Let's not talk about those people. Xia Duo, you came here this time because of the newly discovered unowned mithril mine, right? You work in the Northland Alliance. You should know the specific situation better than me. Is there any problem with the mithril mine? Now
Is there a conclusion?"
"There should be no problem with the mithril mine itself. Judging from the preliminary exploration results, it is enough to last any country in the North for a thousand years. This is still a conservative statement."
Of course, this is only a rough estimate by the Northland Alliance based on the amount of mithril consumed by various countries in the past. Considering the interest of the magic industry, it is certainly impossible to really use it for a thousand years.
However, the Northland Alliance's speculation on mineral reserves is somewhat conservative. Maybe more will be mined in the future. After all, Amarinda's specialties are mithril and fine gold.
The giant mithril mine discovered in the Greyhawk Mountains was an open-pit mine. If there were mineral veins from the surface to the underdark, then there would be too much room for imagination.
It's so big that Xia Duo doesn't want to give up even if there is a demon behind him.
"But there is no problem with the mine, which does not mean that there is no problem with this matter. I suspect that this may be a situation deliberately caused by the demons, just to destroy the current unity of the countries in the North. This is a conspiracy. Regardless of whether they are demons or not, all countries
The relationship that has gradually eased has become tense again, so it is best to think that it would be better for the demon to intervene."
"Is it worth paying such a high price just to destroy unity?" Iolum was quite puzzled by this.
In his opinion, the countries in the North are already in conflict, and even if they gradually ease, they will never really become one in the end. However, the mithril mine is real and can be used by a country for thousands of years. Demons are necessary.
Did you pay so much?
You must know that once the mithril mine is exposed, it will not belong to the demon descendant. Even if the conflict intensifies, countries will eventually reach an agreement to jointly develop the mithril mine.
And once the mithril mine is developed, no matter how much share any country in the North gets, it will always be a huge improvement compared to the past. Once mithril is abundant, it will inevitably promote the prosperity of magic items, which is extremely detrimental to the demons.
.
As for Iolum's confusion, Shado can answer, "The reserves of that mithril mine are very large, but mining and smelting cannot be completed in a short time, not to mention that countries may have to stamp it before actual mining.
One.
"In other words, for quite some time in the future, the mithril mine will not bring any direct benefits to the countries in the North. Instead, it will bring endless conflicts.
"As long as it can be delayed for a while and the demons create a new world, doesn't this mine eventually belong to them?"
Speaking of this, Xia Duo hesitated for a moment, but still revealed to Iolum the latest results of the Northland Alliance's time-related magic research laboratory——
"The Northland Alliance has been able to monitor the time-related magic rituals of the demons in real time. It is not yet sure whether the demons are aware of this situation, but it can be assumed that they already know it, so they released the news of the mithril mine.
It would be better to use real and huge interests to provoke disputes between countries, and it would be best to completely stop the research on time-related magic."
"Real-time monitoring of the demon's magic ritual is indeed a very unfavorable situation for the demon." A rare dignified look appeared on Iolum's face.
Even though the Northland Alliance has made a breakthrough in time-related magic research, who knows how long the demon has been researching before. Now that it can be monitored in real time, if it is delayed for a while, it may not be possible.
And if the possibility of the demon descendants subverting the timeline is completely eliminated, no one can predict what the demon descendants will do in the end. It is this unpredictable unknown that makes Iolum feel particularly heavy.
Thinking of this, Iolum asked Shado again, "I know that you have a better understanding of the situation in the North than others. How do you think various countries should distribute this mithril mine? So that the demons will not take advantage of it."
"It's difficult. After all, with such huge benefits in front of us, no one can give up. Let me tell you, teacher, if I let you choose, do you want more or less?"
However, Xia Duo is not completely without a plan. Since Iolum asked about it, he can just ask him to help him as a reference, and even take it to ventilate with the Seven Towers in advance. Even if he doesn't agree with his plan, at least he can't fall into the demon.
trap.
Now Xia Duo completely regards this matter as a conspiracy of the demons to provoke the dispute in the North. This is a conclusion that is beneficial to all countries. If there is no demon factor, wouldn't all countries have to fight with confidence and boldness?
You must know that the biggest threat to the demon is the magic ritual that changes the timeline, and now the Northland Alliance can monitor the fluctuations in the timeline caused by the ritual in real time.
Under such circumstances, it remains to be seen whether the various countries in the North will still consider the demon descendants to be a huge threat!
In short, this matter was caused by the devil, just to mess up our great situation of unity in the North!
"Teacher, there is such a story in my hometown. It tells about children dividing cakes. No matter how the divider divides the cake, the people who get it feel dissatisfied because the divider often gives himself a larger portion.
"In the end, a smart kid thought of a way to let the allocator come up with the allocation plan first, but he was the last one to choose. Now everyone thinks it's fair. Of course, the mithril mine can be allocated in this way."
