743, artillery trade
As the story ended, Charlie Iris also finished eating the grilled fish in his hands.
He sighed: "The 'Black Dragon Abyss Secret Realm' is very dangerous even for my great-great-grandfather Owen to enter. There is basically no way for a strong person at the sanctuary level to survive.
Of course, Prome Shancha had half-stepped into the legendary realm, and there was a chance that he could survive. But now that he has lost his mind, no one can say whether he can survive.
So we are just waiting for news about Promi Shancha’s survival or death.”
After hearing what Charlie Iris said, Sean's expression became very ugly: "If Prome Camellia falls in that secret realm, this continent will probably change!"
What Sean said was not alarmist at all.
The reality is indeed like this.
The reason why the Camellia family was able to rule the two major states of the Kingdom of Anjou and be on an equal footing with the royal family was due to Prome Camellia, the pinnacle of the Holy Realm, and the fateful friendship between Prome Camellia and the legendary strongman Owen Iris.
Once Prome Camellia fell, how could the Camellia family, which only had two weak saints who could not defeat the God of Thunder, still occupy half of the Anjou Kingdom?
The Shancha family will definitely decline significantly, or even be completely destroyed.
So this continent may really change!
.
After finishing the grilled fish, Charlie Iris was still unsatisfied, so he took another skewer of marinated fish and started grilling another skewer.
As he put the fish on the grill, he said to Sean:
"This is also the third reason why I came to you. If Prome Shancha is confirmed to be dead, are you interested in joining us in sending troops to conquer the Shancha family?"
"This... we have to think carefully before making a decision." Sean replied seriously:
"You should also know our current situation. Our principality's 50,000-strong army only has 15,000 people left, and there is only one Thunder God left among the saints. It is very difficult to protect ourselves, let alone fight back against the Shancha family."
"You don't have to worry, think about it slowly." Charlie Iris waved his hand, not caring at all:
"We'll wait for the news first. It won't be too late for you to make a decision after the results come out."
"Okay." Sean nodded worriedly.
Feeling that the future situation was not optimistic, Sean found that the barbecue in his hands no longer smelled good.
.
In the next period of time, the four of them chatted about some irrelevant topics.
After Charlie Iris's second fish was cooked, he returned to the topic first:
"The last aspect I came to you about, and the most important aspect, is about artillery."
When Charlie Iris started to talk about the key points, Sean's attention immediately became focused.
Charlie Iris continued: "Of course I know a lot about the performance of artillery.
In your naval battle with the Southern Navy, and in the city defense battle with the Shancha family two days ago, artillery participated in the battle, and the effect was very good. So I want to spend a lot of money to obtain the production technology of the artillery, and I wonder if you are willing to sell it?"
"Of course we are willing to sell." Sean smiled.
Sean had thought about selling the artillery craftsmanship to the Anjou royal family before, and there was no psychological barrier: "I just don't know what price you are willing to pay?"
"500,000 gold coins!" Charlie Iris said firmly: "500,000 gold coins, I want the entire production process of artillery and magic crystal shells. What do you think?"
500,000 gold coins is not a small amount, it is enough to build a sacred weapon of the same level as Sonalo.
The reason why King Charles was willing to pay so much money was to quickly upgrade the Northern Navy and improve its combat effectiveness.
After all, the Northern Navy also faces a powerful opponent - the Plantagenet Empire's Armada.
If you can rely on technological upgrades to defeat this opponent, spending 500,000 gold coins is completely worth it.
Of course Sean is very aware of this.
But he is not stupid enough to sell all the technology.
If the Anjou Northern Navy is also equipped with artillery and magic crystal shells, their fleet of the Principality of Lane will completely lose sea control.
Losing control of the sea means losing the initiative in maritime trade and being restricted by others, which is something Sean can never accept.
So Sean replied: "I can sell you the production process of the artillery, but as for the production process of the magic crystal shells, it's not that we don't want to sell it, it's that we really can't sell it."
"Can't sell? What does this mean?" Charlie Iris' heart clenched suddenly.
Artillery without magic crystal shells is at best equivalent to the level of bronze-level archers with a longer range.
Although it is not bad, it cannot play a decisive role in high-end battlefields, and it is completely different from artillery equipped with magic crystal shells.
"That's it." Sean explained "sincerely":
"The magic crystal cannonballs made with black iron-level magic cores are not bad, and many alchemist apprentices can barely make them;
But if it is high-end, like magic crystal shells of silver or above, one of our alchemist masters will need to personally take action.
But the 'Magic Crystal Cannonball' is the most glorious achievement in this master alchemist's life, and he is unwilling to hand over the production process of the Magic Crystal Cannonball to others."
"If that's the case, there's nothing we can do about it." Charlie Iris sighed.
He also knew that all kinds of alchemy and potion masters were more eccentric than the other, difficult to communicate with, and not to be offended. He temporarily gave up the idea of buying magic crystal cannonball craftsmanship from Sean.
But what he was thinking about was that if there was a chance in the future, he might be able to find someone to poach the alchemist master.
For high-end talents, the best way is to use them for your own use.
.
But just as he was thinking, Sean smiled and said: "Although I can't sell you the process of magic crystal cannonballs, I can sell you finished artillery and finished magic crystal cannonballs. If you need it, the production process of the cannon
We can sell it too!”
"Let's forget about the artillery production process." Charlie Iris showed little interest.
Without the manufacturing process of magic crystal shells, the artillery naturally loses its value.
However, Charlie Iris is still very interested in the finished artillery and the finished magic crystal shells.
Especially the magic crystal shells, after they are brought back to the country, they might be able to be imitated by domestic alchemist masters!
If the counterfeiting is successful, it is equivalent to saving 500,000 gold coins!
.
So in the next period of time, Sean and Charlie Iris discussed the transaction of finished artillery and finished magic crystal shells.
In the end, Charlie Iris decided to purchase 50 of the latest artillery pieces, 500 magic crystal shells of different levels and 2,000 ordinary cannon shells from Sean.
After the deal was concluded, everyone stopped talking about state affairs and had a enjoyable barbecue in the hall.
