Chapter 1296 Shall We Get Married? The Target Is Not You.
This year, due to Ellington's production needs, the supply of Earth Dragon blood exceeds demand. The Renne Empire captured a large number of Earth Dragons for breeding. After winter, these breeding farms were in trouble.
Time has entered the end of the Withering Month, and the climate has become colder. Especially the Ren Empire in the north has now turned into a world covered in silver again. The plants have withered and the herbivorous monsters have disappeared. As a result, the carnivorous monsters have also disappeared. The frequency of activities had to be gradually reduced, and it was difficult for the hunting teams organized by the farms to gain anything.
The inability to obtain sufficient meat from the wild to supplement consumption as feed has led to a sudden increase in pressure on ground dragon breeding farms, especially those farms that have blindly expanded and now have to spend a large part of the proceeds from the sale of ground dragon blood. All the income was reinvested in buying feed - these guys have terrible appetites and their taste of meat is quite scary.
However, it may be because the life in captivity for more than a year has been too comfortable. There are people taking care of food and drink every day. The ground dragons in the breeding factory are now very obedient. After winter, the life is much better than in the wild, and there is no need to search for food in the wilderness as hard as before. They generally grow fat and strong, which makes many ground dragons have already Accepted the current life of captivity.
The earth dragon breeding industry has only been carried out for more than a year, and the earth dragons are already showing a tendency to be trained. Maybe it won't be long before they become like the pigs on the earth, turning into valuable livestock. Come on.
Although the snowy weather has led to an overall downturn in the breeding industry, the cold weather has been quite helpful for the sales of heating products of the Datang Chamber of Commerce. In previous years, the residents of the Renne Empire had to rely on their own hair to survive the winter. To fight against the past, they would either spend their time chopping wood and lighting a fire in the fireplace. When the products of the Datang Chamber of Commerce first came to the Ren Empire, their income was not enough to purchase goods.
But the development of the breeding industry has also brought great progress to the income of these residents. According to statistics, at the end of this year, the average monthly income of urban residents in the Reign Empire increased by more than 900% compared with the same period last year, and the average income of village residents increased by more than 900% compared with the same period last year. The growth rate during the same period exceeded 1,600%.
At first glance, this is a rather scary increase, but because the base is too small, it actually only brings the lower average income of the Rennes Empire to the average income baseline of Plandar. The real income level still needs to be improved. , by the next year, after the number in the denominator becomes normal, this growth level will drop to a reasonable number.
At the same time, the development of the airship transportation industry has also greatly reduced the impact of snow on land transportation. Almost every day, a steady stream of foreign businessmen and passengers arrive in the Rennes Empire by airship, among which the New Bulcasso The number of tourists is the highest, which has caused the economic vitality here to skyrocket, and it is close to the level of first-tier cities in Purandal.
The large area of snow since the beginning of winter has not stopped people from coming to the Reine Empire to enjoy the exotic scenery. All kinds of local specialties are almost out of stock in New Bulkesso, making the local residents smile from ear to ear.
It is worth mentioning that this winter it was because of the help of the Weather Mage Group to control the weather, so the meteorological disasters in the Renne Empire were so minor - because most of the water vapor was dispersed to other arid areas to form effective precipitation. .
Because of various reasons like this, the residents of the Renne Empire now generally have a very friendly attitude towards the Illrus Empire and Tang En, and they all feel that the two countries should further strengthen cooperation...
"Okay, okay, I understand, but..."
Tang En looked at Testero, who was sitting in front of him and talked eloquently. He felt a little confused: "You came all the way here and said so many irrelevant things. What exactly do you want to express?"
Tang En found that since Testero was brainwashed by economics, his eloquence has become better and better. After sitting down, he didn't drink a sip of tea. From the history of the Renne Empire to the present, from Tiannan to Haibei, I've been talking about this for almost an hour.
Testero coughed lightly, then smiled: "Didn't what I wanted to say be expressed just now?"
"Um?"
"We should further strengthen cooperation."
Testero said earnestly: "After all, from a racial point of view, we are orcs and you are humans. If we just maintain this cooperative relationship for a long time, problems will definitely occur over time. In order to avoid this situation, Our two countries should further strengthen our cooperative relationship and maintain our friendship, so..."
"But haven't we already fully cooperated?"
Tang En was puzzled. Now the development of the Rayne Empire in all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation cannot be separated from the help of the Tang Dynasty Chamber of Commerce. Moreover, due to Testero's debt problem, the entire Rayne Empire can be counted. This is Tang En's back garden, how else can we cooperate?
"Let's get married."
"What!?"
Testero's sudden words frightened Tang En so much. Damn it, I'm almost in a mess emotionally right now. The matter with Egwin hasn't been resolved yet, and you're still going to make me more confused! ?
Although Vanilla and Cocoa are indeed very cute, if Testero really asked him to marry them at this time, Tang En could only refuse.
"I was serious."
Testero looked at Tang En very seriously: "You know, we actually have this need."
"ha!"
Tang En sneered at this. For Testero, of course it was necessary. You know, in order for Tang En to assist the construction and modernization of the Rennes Empire, Testero sold all the Rennes Empire. Almost all of them were sold, and the so-called terms of humiliating the country and losing power were nothing more than this. If the Renne Empire had not developed, it is estimated that Testero's signing of this contract would have become the trigger of internal conflicts among the orcs, directly triggering a people's struggle. .
Fortunately, Tang En's assistance has indeed allowed the development of the Renne Empire, and the life of the orcs is getting better and better, so no one will continue to stare at the contracts signed by Testero that are humiliating and humiliating the country.
Others don't care anymore, but Testero himself cares about it now. He can't help it. The better his life is, the more he understands the importance of those resources and sovereignty, but now all the initiative has been given to Tang. Okay, what can he do?
So Testero came up with a perfect plan - marriage.
That's right, it's a marriage.
As long as the marriage between the Ren Empire and the Illus Empire is successful, then the two parties will become a family. Since they are a family, then the past debts can be written off, right? Without the burden of debt, will the future development of the Rennes Empire be smooth sailing?
Testero thought happily. If he really succeeds, the future will be wonderful. But unfortunately, Tang En can guess what he is thinking with his ass. This guy can clearly tell I just want to use marriage to offset debts!
But is it possible? To put it bluntly, do you think your saint daughter is made of gold and diamonds?
Although it does not sound good to say this and I am sorry for the two cute cat-eared girls, it is a fact. As long as the Ren Empire and the Illus Empire have not merged, they will be two entities, and Tang En must stand. Thinking about it from the perspective of the Illus Empire, using marriage to offset such a huge debt would only be possible unless he was obsessed with sperm. However, is it possible that he is obsessed with being squeezed by various beauties every day? ? nonexistent!
If Egwen's matter can be resolved smoothly, Tang En will not mind marrying Vanilla and Cocoa back, but that does not mean that this can offset the debts of Ren's empire. He also hopes to use these heavy debts to eventually force Ren's The empire went bankrupt, and then the two countries merged into one.
"Don't think about it. It's impossible for me to agree to the marriage. If nothing else, Olena is still angry with me. Now, am I seeking death by taking a concubine?"
Tang En made a random excuse and planned to fool Testero. However, what he didn't expect was that after hearing his words, Testero smiled heartily and said, "My friend, are you?" What's the misunderstanding? The person you are marrying is not you."
"ha?"
Testero showed his shining teeth: "I want my son Ursa to marry your daughter Alleria."
Testero was already aware of what was going on between Tang En, Vanilla and Coco. His first choice was of course to use Vanilla and Coco to marry to consolidate the regime and offset the debt at the same time. But he also knew that Vanilla and Coco But for the saints of the Holy See of Vulcan, their marriage is completely unaffected by his king. The Holy See of Vulcan stands behind them, allowing them to gain maximum freedom in marriage.
Although Testero had convinced them to sacrifice themselves to marry Tang En for the future of the Renne Empire, Testero also knew that Tang En would probably find various excuses to avoid such a marriage. If you have a sinister character, there will only be one result - you stay with the person and continue to carry the debt.
Therefore, Testero made two preparations.
When Tang En started to make excuses as expected, Testero took advantage of the situation and revealed his true thoughts.
That's right, the marriage partner is not you, but Ursa Bloodeye, the prince of the Ren Empire, and Alleria Illrus, the princess of the Illrus Empire!
The pearl of the Illus Empire, Princess Alleria, is already 26 years old this year. She has already passed the average age of marriage in Purandar. Tang En should have arranged a marriage for her long ago. Generally speaking, a princess is either married off or married off. A certain prince or noble is either marrying into another country... But now, looking at Purandar, there are only three countries left: the Illus Empire, the Renne Empire, and the Ronitant Kingdom. Among them, the Ronitant Kingdom King Oscar is still Alleria's uncle, so of course it is impossible to marry back.
That meant that Alleria would either choose to marry a certain noble class in the country, or marry into the Ren Empire.
Looking at Tang En, Testero smiled happily.
How about, the marriage partner is not you, so how can you find an excuse to refuse?
Fuck... trough!
