Fortunately, from the very beginning, the Yong Ye Army Leader had shares in all the properties of Sophia Liya and Prince Laurie, and fully used their names to intimidate Xiaoxiao, instead of raising thugs and guards like regular taverns and chambers of commerce.
, otherwise the regent princess would never tolerate it until now, and would have suppressed her in various ways.
But this time they exerted their strength, the coordination and the manpower and material resources they could use still shocked the Princess Regent.
In Sean's eyes, this was a routine operation of the Yongye Army leader, and it was really nothing.
But are you afraid of comparison in everything?
Compared with them, Valesta's security team, a dignified official organization, obviously pales in comparison.
If it weren't for Captain Villa, an outstanding figure in the middle, who acted as a co-ordinator, once she was completely outclassed and Sophia lost her face, a lot of people would be in trouble.
Xiao En lamented for a while that his subordinates were too honest and spared no effort to help others, and ended up selling him out.
As everyone knows, this is directly related to his personal trip yesterday.
Since the establishment of the Valesta Chamber of Commerce, this was the first time that he, the president, came forward to ask for something to be done. Naturally, he had to do his best and mobilized all the manpower and material resources that could be mobilized.
Not to mention the Dawn Tavern, this is the territory and property of the Yongye Army. The Lord must not only do it well, but also do it beautifully to show the achievements they have made during this period of time.
But when it comes to regret, I can't even talk about it.
This kind of thing is like sorghum growing in a millet field, sooner or later it will emerge.
Even if they are not exposed this time, with the speed of their development, problems will arise sooner or later.
Especially since Sean has just set the tone for the Valesta Caravan to enter the mercenary industry.
Now it seems that I think this matter is a bit simple. The Lancelot royal family cannot sit idly by and ignore such matters involving force.
Even if it can create a lot of benefits for them, the security of a territory must come before profits.
It is not that the mercenary industry cannot develop, but the headquarters must not be placed in Valesta as before. Even the headquarters of the Valesta Chamber of Commerce must be slowly moved away from here.
It's not just a question of whether the Lancelot royal family can trust them, but whether they can trust the Lancelot royal family.
Now that the Princess Regent is still in a high position, she will not easily take action against the leader of the Yong Ye Army, whether in public or private matters. She really can't stand it, so she will handle it through relatively mild diplomatic means like now.
If Prince Laurie were to take the throne, it would be hard to say.
It's not that Prince Laurie has shown any hostility towards the leader of the Yongye Army, but that politics involves countless factors. In addition to the wishes of the person in a high position, he will also be subject to
The influence of other forces or personal relationships.
Not to mention, when the Kingsley family was negotiating with the Evernight Army Leader, Archduke Buck used family ties to try to kidnap and threaten Prince Lowry morally, thus affecting his sense of the Evernight Army Leader.
Indirectly affects the Eternal Night Army Leader through Sophia Liya.
He hasn't ascended the throne yet, but that's it. Once he reaches a high position, all kinds of people and all kinds of bullshit will come.
After all, compared to the regent Princess Sophia, he is still too immature and more easily influenced and deceived.
In addition, they also have to consider their relationship with the regent Princess Sophia.
The Regent Princess route that the Yong Ye Army Leader has taken from the beginning. How much benefit does this route bring to them now? When Prince Laurie comes to power, the potential negative impact will be huge, especially since the Yong Ye Army Leader has already begun to make plans.
Let Sean marry Princess Sophia.
Because after the new king comes to power, there will inevitably be a de-regent princess, and all people and forces who are close to the regent princess will naturally be excluded.
This has nothing to do with the closeness of Sophia Liya and Prince Laurie, but the repulsiveness of the rights themselves.
If the new king wants to maintain his rule, he will inevitably recruit new people who are loyal to him to form his own team. This new force will inevitably exclude the old force that is loyal to the regent Princess Sophia.
As for completely taking over the power of the regent princess, that's nonsense.
Don't forget, Princess Regent Sofilia only stepped down from her seat, not hung up.
At that time, will those people listen to the new king? Or the former regent? Especially when the orders of the two people are inconsistent.
If this happens too often, even the deepest feelings will be completely wiped out.
Unless the Princess Regent wants to usurp power, as an experienced and sophisticated politician, she will never leave such hidden dangers.
From the moment it was announced that the new king was about to take the stage, the Princess Regent probably started preparations in this regard.
And the leader of the Yongye army happened to hit the muzzle of the gun again, so it was inevitable that he would use it for surgery.
"The actions you have carried out in Valesta in the past two years are a bit too much, especially the Eagle Communication System. It has a strong military atmosphere. If you continue, you will only be criticized by others. Everyone is crawling.
, you are the only one running, and you can easily become a target of fire. Especially in the next few years, when the power handover phase enters, Valesta will be the most chaotic period. All kinds of monsters will appear, and it will be difficult for me to take care of it then.
To you." As expected, the reason given by the regent Princess Sophia was exactly the same as what Sean had thought. This was something that came from the bottom of her heart.
The other party was heartbroken, and Sean no longer tried to hide it, but said sincerely: "I know what to do. After the year, we will adjust our business strategic plan in Valesta and review the properties under our name."
Through integration and reorganization, some of the more sensitive industries will be relocated to cities surrounding the royal capital, or placed further afield."
What Sean said was not affected by the temporary decision of the regent Princess Sophia, but that they had originally planned to do this.
The transfer of power of the Lancelot royal family was made public, and they knew the information early on.
Princess Regent Sophia's attitude is also very clear. She has no intention of removing the two words "Prince Regent". Once Prince Laurie can shoulder the burden of the Lancelot royal family, she will be ready to withdraw.
Previously, the Yongye Army leaders wanted to open up the huge market of Valesta and let the citizens here accept their products and business operation model.
It uses saturation bombing. No matter what industry it is, there are a lot of them, making them appear in every corner of their lives. The products are endless, filling every aspect of their lives, making them accustomed to it.
, and enter into their lives.
After such a long period of operation, the purpose of the Yong Ye Army Leader has been achieved. The market has been opened and stabilized. Citizens who can accept their products have accepted them one after another. Those who cannot accept it either cannot afford it or cannot afford it.
The philosophies are too different and cannot be changed even in a short period of time.
The Yong Ye Army leaders are naturally preparing to adjust their strategies, stabilize the market, sort out the chaos caused by their saturation bombing, and optimize and integrate resources to further expand their interests.
It's complicated to say, but it can be summed up in just a few sentences.
Prepare to get rid of industries with too thin profits.
Some redundant shops have been closed or transformed.
The price positioning of some commodities that were not accurate at the beginning was adjusted. Those that should go up will go up, those that should go down will go down, and those that should be given up will be given up.
Anyway, it is based on one purpose, maximizing profits.
At least before that, they only needed to consider this one purpose, and now there is another one, which is to minimize the impact of the change of power on them, and prepare for the worst - to temporarily give up the big cake of Valesta.
If this situation occurs before the leader of the Yongye Army eats the Swamp of Despair, the impact on the leader of the Yongye Army will indeed be quite great. After all, this line accounts for the majority of their military expenditures.
But now the layout of the Yongye Army has basically taken shape, especially the backup trade line leading to the Flower Language Plateau has been opened. Even if there is a problem with this line, it will not damage the foundation.
Again, it's a seller's market now.
The Yongye Army's products are in short supply, and no matter which business route they take, the benefits they gain are the same.
After the quantity of goods in the territory increases and other business routes are saturated, it is enough to reopen this business route. After all, the market is there and will not disappear.
On the contrary, he will become more and more hungry, and even without the Eternal Night Army leading him to attack, someone will take the initiative to come to his door.
Of course, this possibility is very small, unless the regent Princess Sophia and Prince Laurie completely break up, and the leader of the Evernight Army must choose to take sides.
Various interests and calculations flashed through Sean's mind quickly, and he quickly made a decision: "You are right, since we are in other people's territory, we must do as the Romans do. When everyone else is lying down, we stand up.
, it is really a bit hateful, so we will move forward like everyone else. However, now that the Flying Eagle communication system of Dawn Tavern has been established, it would be a pity to abandon it. Is Your Highness interested in taking over? Here you go.
Calculating the preferential price, I believe the captain of the Valesta Security Team should have a deep understanding. With its help, the city's internal stability will not be improved by one or two indexes, but several times."
The regent Princess Sophilia clearly showed her heartbeat. As she just said, the change of power is most likely to cause internal disturbances, especially in the royal capital of Valesta, where the personnel are the most complex, and it is inevitable that there will be daring people.
The disciples want to take advantage of the situation, but if they are damaged, the royal family will be the most distressed.
With this system, the stability coefficient will undoubtedly be greatly improved.
After thinking for a while, Sophia Liya finally shook her head and said: "The rights are about to enter the handover period. I am not suitable to take over new things. This will easily cause a waste of resources. So, you continue to use this system.
Wait, after I transfer the control of the royal capital to Laurie, it won't be too late for you to consider selling it to him."
"Understood." Sean nodded.
What Sophia was talking about was actually the issue that Sean had considered before, the issue of trust in the things he inherited from the Princess Regent.
Even ordinary people, let alone those in power, are far less interested in things they take over from others than they are in making them themselves.
Just because Prince Lowry is not a qualified politician now does not mean he will not become one in the future.
The Princess Regent has shrewdly begun to avoid this, preventing the waste of resources, and at the same time creating an opportunity for the leader of the Evernight Army to get closer to Prince Laurie, and Sean naturally knows how to seize it.
The most important thing about the New Year's Carnival is the first wave, when the enthusiasm of the citizens is the strongest.
As long as they can survive this wave and vent their emotions to a certain extent, the rest will be much easier.
Especially this time there is the intervention of the Yongye military leader.
This time they didn't do anything earth-shattering. They just set up stages, large and small, outside all the Dawn Taverns, and put on constant shows for 25 hours.
There are not only the tavern’s traditional repertoire of bards’ poems and epic stories, but also clown plays, songs, dances and cross talk sketches from the Yongye Army leaders.
No matter which one, it attracted a large number of citizens. Every scene was crowded with people, and even the surrounding rooftops were full. Many people were so fascinated that they forgot to receive the free food.
Their spirits are more hungry than their hungry bellies.
The entertainment activities in this world are really too scarce. Not to mention songs and plays, even the stories of bards, not everyone has the opportunity to listen to.
In the past, during New Year's carnivals, after they had eaten and drank enough, they would have nothing to do. They would sit together and brag and spank, and start fighting over disagreements. It seemed natural and boring!
Now that there are new entertainment programs, who is still so free?
The leader of the Yongye Army originally wanted to use this method to attract customers for the tavern, but unexpectedly it came in handy.
What really ignited Valesta's frenzied atmosphere was the launch of the first fireworks into the sky after nightfall.
When everyone was caught off guard, the high-altitude fireworks jumped into the sky directly above the Palace Square and exploded like a blooming red rose.
Divided into eight, eight green leaves bloomed.
After a slight pause, new flames bloomed, layer by layer, as many as eight layers.
These are by no means ordinary fireworks, they are fireworks with black technology added.
"So beautiful! Really beautiful."
"It's incredible. How did they do it?"
"What was that just now?"
"Fireworks, that thing just now is called fireworks, a new thing from the Yongye Army."
"Fireworks, what a name, they are indeed as beautiful as flowers blooming, but like flowers, they last too short!"
"Momentary beauty can make people remember it more freshly. That kind of beauty does not disappear, but will be engraved in the hearts of everyone who witnesses it, isn't it?"
"That's very philosophical. You're not a poet, are you?"
"You're really right. I'm really a poet, but just a bard. I just performed on stage. Don't you remember me?"
"I only remember your story, but not your appearance."
"Look, it's here again, it's here again, wow, wow... go and see."
"It's there too."
"There are some here too."
"Haha, they are everywhere. How many fireworks did the Yongye army bring?"
The fireworks just now were just an introduction, and more fireworks took off immediately.
Red, blue, green, purple...all kinds of colors.
Continuous spraying, rising steadily, continuous explosions...all kinds of things.
It seems that they can be seen in every corner of the royal capital of Valesta, but the focus is still on the palace square.
One after another, continuously, the night sky has become its best decoration.
Even the regent Princess Sophia, who is a straight girl, could not hide the fascination in her eyes, and couldn't help but murmur to herself: "So beautiful."
"This is a New Year's gift for you." Sean, who was standing next to her, took the opportunity to say.
It was a good thing that Sean didn't speak. This sound made Sophia Liya recover her mind, she looked slightly sideways and said: "Black powder?"
"Black powder." Sean nodded and admitted generously.
Now black gunpowder is no longer unique to the Eternal Night Army. The smart people in this world have begun to exert their efforts after the Eternal Night Army used them to turn the tide of the battle.
According to the information controlled by the Yongye Army Leader, no less than three forces have now launched black powder formulas. Although they are only preliminary products and have not mastered the optimal formula, it is only a matter of time.
The speed of reverse thrust was somewhat beyond the expectations of Yongye Army Leader.
But if you think about it carefully, it's quite normal. After all, there are black technologies like magic in this world, which can do many things beyond imagination. Who knows whether those big forces have mastered black technologies that defy the sky.
