The meeting went smoothly, but it was difficult for each to convince the aristocrats under his umbrella.
Because it doesn't mean we have to explain them all together.
If you persuade him too much, Jason will know about the move.
Anyone who knows you can be trusted should be treated with caution.
It seemed difficult to convince all the nobles by the wedding.
"--That's why.You will obey us at His Highness's wedding. "
"I can't believe that...Very well, I will help you. "
For this reason, the Marquis of Welrod explained it individually in three generations.
I still don't know if I'll make it.
Now I just had to do what I could.
"When I came to the Mansion, I missed Count Graves.I was wondering what happened because I didn't look good...Perhaps I look like that too.I'm ashamed, my body is trembling. "
"When I heard the news, I felt trembling.I don't know what to do, so I went to talk to my father immediately.There's no need to be ashamed of Baron Lisgow. "
Isaac speaks kindly.
"But it is His Majesty who has the most terrible thoughts.The fear will not be enough to tremble.We cannot afford to tremble now that we can act in a safe place.Be prepared to act when the time comes.We're here to help. "
And he said powerful words.
The tremor of Baron Lisgow changed from a tremor of fear to a tremor of a warrior.
"Yes, Your Majesty is the hardest part.We have to help.... but Lord Enfield has long been on the lookout. "
"... what are you doing?"
"It's about His Highness Jason.Was it about the time before I came into contact with the dwarf?"Do you swear allegiance to me or to His Highness Jason?You were asked, "
"Oh, oh, you mean back then?"
Did I say Jason?I thought you said royalty.)
Perhaps Baron Lisgow was so shocked that he tampered with the memory of Isaac and Jason.
That was convenient for Isaac, so I didn't correct it.
"It was a long time ago, so I want you to forget it.That's what I said when I didn't think about it. "
"Lord Jason hasn't changed since Lord Enfield felt anxious.However, Lord Enfield has really changed in comparison to those days.I started using Rigidity and Softness well.You are now led by trust, not by fear.Thanks to you, I can trust Lord Enfield to act 100%. "
Isaac said, "Don't let people know so much," but they didn't take it.
Baron Lisgow received it in the sense that "Jason was not considering getting decent."
"I'm glad you said that.I will do my best not to betray that trust.Please do not panic and calm down and explain to your family who are going to attend your wedding. "
"Yes, sir."
Isaac smiled.
But I wasn't very calm.
(It would have been easier if it had always been like this)
In general, it goes smoothly in this way.
But sometimes people cry and sometimes they struggle to calm down.
Morgan assigned the persuaders, but those with relatively low persuasive difficulty were assigned to Randolph in preference.
Isaac was concerned that it would not be impossible, but there was still a feeling that Isaac wanted to make things easier.
----------
Nevertheless, Isaac had time to enjoy himself.
Talk to Oscar, president of the Braak Chamber of Commerce.
I have to tell him something important.
Suddenly, the summoned Oscar turned pale.
Isaac felt the need to calm him down first.
"You don't have to be nervous.It's important, but it's also good for you. "
"I appreciate you saying that...There are rumors (...) among merchants entering and leaving the Royal Palace.Maybe it's something to do with it. "
Apparently Oscar knows something about Elias.
That idiot Jason!
Isaac felt angry that Jason's information controls were sweet, but soon the heat of anger cooled.
Jason and Nicole are getting married soon.
You must be desperate for your last earner to sell decorations and more to those who work at the Royal Palace.
Naturally, the movement within the royal palace is also naturally heard.
Amongst them...
The king and his wife stopped appearing in public.
---That's a hot topic.
Jason behaves with his face, and Elias doesn't show up.
From there, speculation floats, and there must be rumours of something close to the truth.
Oscar's concern is probably related to the coup d 'état.
Isaac stops selling smiles and becomes serious.
"Oscar, this is a question for Duke Enfield.I only ask you once, so answer carefully. "
Yes!
Oscar makes Isaac's expression look more intense than ever.
"What is the highest priority for Oscar as a Braak Chamber of Commerce?"
"Is this your top priority...."
How should I respond? Normally, I would say the Reid Kingdom or the Reid Royal Family....Does Lord Enfield want such a simple answer?Or do you just want to make sure you're willing to work for the Reid Royal?I don't know, how should I respond)
Oscar thinks desperately.
How to answer Isaac's (...) request for an answer.
"Just so you know, it's no use thinking about the answers I want."
Isaac stuck a nail in it, and Oscar was thrilled.
I felt as if I had been seen inside my head.
But the opponent is Isaac.
I thought it was natural for me to be spotted and settled down immediately.
"The priority for the Braak Chamber of Commerce is profit.And I consider profit to be my top priority. "
This is a rather thoughtful remark.
Because Oscar also made a statement with a faint understanding that "Elias is in trouble."
― ― Speaking of merchants, profits take precedence over royalties.
Originally, it would be no wonder this speech was punished.
But Oscar put it into words with all his heart.
I don't know what Isaac is looking for in this situation.
But "If you've called a merchant, are you looking for an answer that looks like a merchant?The idea came to mind behind Oscar's head.
Essentially, Isaac would treat me honestly.
I thought it would be a better idea to step in than I could think of a reason to cheat here.
That was the correct answer.
I need to ask you something in anticipation of that.
Isaac was smiling.
It looked so evil to Oscar that it could not compare to the sales smile I had shown you before.
He remembers seeing a similar smile when he trapped the Maroon Chamber of Commerce.
"Excuse me, could you leave him alone?"
Isaac pays.
Except for Isaac and Oscar, only Norman remained.
"... Norman, you'll be surprised to hear what we're going to talk about.However, it does not disobey His Majesty's royal decree to 'fight the enemies of the Reed Kingdom'.Will you be loyal to me without thinking too much? "
He was in trouble, but Isaac didn't order him to leave.
Because I thought it was important to give them a chance here.
"Your Excellency, that question is exhausting.Even if I put it on a scale with the Reid royal family, I will choose you. "
"I'm sorry, I have to be very careful.I'm going to say it. "
The bitter smile directed at Norman was natural.
But soon an evil smile will be directed at Oscar.
"The Grey Chamber of Commerce has done well in its dealings with Dwarves.But it's only about the deal.When it comes to logistics, Braak often relies on the Chamber of Commerce.This is thanks to my many years of extensive service as a merchant.The Grey Chamber of Commerce won't be able to do it right away. "
Logistics is not about adding more people.
Because rather than carrying expensive goods, the bad manners must be avoided.
It takes time to nurture a trusted person.
Even the Grey Chamber of Commerce, which earns all of this by feeling like it's powdered in wet hands, can't do it overnight.
The power of the Braak Chamber of Commerce, which is creating a vast logistics network in the Marquis of Welrod, was still strong.
"But one day you'll be overtaken.At this rate, I will grow to the size of a replacement for the Braak Chamber of Commerce by the time I become the main player.And if I become the main player and a merchant..... "
Needless to say.
Instead of slightly beating the Braak Chamber of Commerce, the Grey Chamber of Commerce will grow to be one of the leading players in the Reid Kingdom.
Originally, there would have been a Braak Chamber of Commerce there, and Oscar felt remorse.
"But let's not forget that the Grey Chamber of Commerce will be the merchant of the Marquis of Welrod (...).There is ample room for restoration of the Braak Chamber of Commerce.You know what that means? "
"The merchant of the Duke of Enfield...?"
This is an option that has emerged due to Isaac's different circumstances.
We used to have to use the future as a collateral, but now it's not.
It was possible to use a trump card with the new title of Duke.
But that's not all Isaac had for the Braak Chamber of Commerce.
"Yes, but that's not all.Depending on the cooperation, we will also pave the way for the royal family.Are you motivated? "
"I'll do it!"
Isaac's offer was out of order.
Naturally, I will be entrusted with a task that is commensurately difficult, but I don't care about that much.
Everyone thinks they want profit.
Beyond being a merchant, he is twice as greedy.
Even though Isaac had a bad smile, he didn't hesitate to say, "I'm motivated."
I have to buy that willingness.
"No, let me tell you the status quo first."
First, I'll give Oscar information about the royal palace.
To a certain extent, it was just what I expected, and Oscar was surprised, but it was small.
"After all, did that happen...?Does this mean you want to raise war money? "
"That would mean that the Marquis of Welrod would have to pay too much.There's something else I want you to do. "
Oscar had a bad feeling about Isaac's words that he wasn't heartless.
"Let's get some people ready first.I just want you to be careful with the candidates.What I want is someone who can be polite and verbal enough to become a regular soldier.But there are a few people the Royal Army doesn't know.This is desirable if it disappears and no one cares.Then get a full set of Royal Regular Army gear and a flag with a message for the number of people.I want you to have someone to deal with them in secret. "
--Pretending to impersonate a Royal Regular Army message and trying to get him to do something.
Isaac's request was easy to imagine.
Norman and Oscar thought, "I think we're going to use the beacon to order Elias's release."
But Isaac thought differently.
It's a big difference.
"And I want to ask them to give me a directive on this."
There are only three people in the room.
Still, when I talk about the content, I keep my voice down.
The two people who heard Isaac's request were shocked enough to stop their hearts.
"I can't believe it!"
"My lord, isn't that the opposite of what you said the other day?I thought we should reconsider! "
Oscar was only surprised, but Norman urged him to reconsider.
But Isaac had no intention of reconsidering.
"It's definitely not what I said at the meeting the other day.But I want you to think about it.The royal decree I received from His Majesty was, "Fight the enemies of the Reid Kingdom."This is just a question of how far it extends. "
"But... isn't it too broad?"
"I don't think so.It is necessary to avoid such a situation again.Don't you think so? "
"That's... I don't know"
What Isaac is trying to do is (...) unacceptable if it's normal.
But now it's not normal.
It's an emergency.
Then you may be forgiven.
--But Norman still had resistance.
"Is there no other way?"
"No. If so, I'll offer you another way first."
"That's right. If that's your derived answer...I only follow. "
Norman regrets "not listening."
Still, I affirmed Isaac's proposal.
Neither Elias Reed nor Jason Reed should he serve.
- The Duke of Isaac Welrod Enfield.
If Isaac is the best course of action, all he has to do is believe.
When Norman saw the idea swallowed up, Isaac moved the target to Oscar.
"What do you think? We're an accomplice.I'll give you enough in return. Instead, I just want you to have an executor who can be truncated. "
"Indeed, it is an unexpected pleasure to be a merchant to the Duke of Enfield and the royal family.But I can't help you with that. "
It was a chance to be at the top of the merchant at once, but Oscar wasn't satisfied with it alone.
Isaac closed his eyes and glanced at him.
But Oscar wasn't afraid of Isaac.
"Please ensure your safety.It's not that it may be safe to think about it, it's absolutely safe. "
He didn't forget about his predecessor, Dennis, the chamber of commerce.
Dennis was executed by Morgan, who helped Isaac.
--Disposed of when it is used up.
Then we're in trouble.
If it is an accomplice relationship, it is troublesome if you are prepared to do it.
No matter how many noble opponents it was, this was something I had to say.
Isaac laughed fufufu.
"I know, Norman. I have the documents from the Housekeeper Welrod."
"Yes"
Norman gives Isaac the papers.
At first, I didn't understand the meaning of what was written, but now I do.
- Morgan was also Isaac's accomplice.
"I did poor things to Dennis because I was immature at the time.But not anymore, I'm rooting around now. "
Isaac gave Oscar the papers.
In summary, it said, "I will not punish anyone who moves on Lord Enfield's orders" with Morgan's signature.
"At my brother's 10th birthday ceremony, I moved things forward without the understanding of my family.That's why Housekeeper Welrod's spearhead, who couldn't punish me, was pointed at Dennis.I don't do the same thing.I want you to cooperate with me with confidence. "
"I see...."
Oscar desperately scrutinizes every word of the paperwork.
You can't be careless just because you're dealing with someone.
Particularly cautioned against the loophole in the phrase "when it comes to making a promise," and desperately looked for a loophole in the phrase "when it comes to interpretation, a promise can be broken".
Isaac was watching because he knew how to be alert.
After a while, Oscar completes the confirmation.
"I am worried that the request is not clearly written in the document, but it is not something that can be written, so I think it is something that cannot be helped."
Point out the areas of concern, but there is nothing you can do about them.
Documents guaranteeing safety are naturally owned by Oscar.
If you think about what happened when you spilled it out, you can't write down what you asked the Marquis of Welrod to do.
I would like to ask Oscar to write more clearly, but I am accustomed to unreasonable exchanges with noble opponents, so this is acceptable.
I felt I was conscientious enough not to be ordered to "do it" without asking questions.
"Not Lord Enfield's arbitrariness, but Lord Welrod's approval.That means there's more..... "
Oscar thought there were other nobles who agreed.
I think the Marquises of Windsor and Warwick are the first likely opponents.
(You can think that the rooting of the nobility is over.When that happens, the royal family doesn't have eyes anymore.Besides, I can't refuse it anymore.)
When Isaac talked to me, Oscar had no escape.
If you say no to such an important story, it means death.
I can only accept it because I'm promised a profit.
"I'm not really happy with that, but I'll do my best.Fortunately, we have a plan for those who have no problems even if they are gone.When it comes to gear, you'll be able to keep your feet off for a week or so. "
In Oscar's head, it was decided early on who to throw away.
Everything else is well prepared.
With the exception of psychological resistance, Isaac's condition was unsatisfactory.
"However, that alone does not explain the appearance of being promoted to the Duke of Enfield.That's why we're here to help you financially. "
That's true too. On the face of it, the Duke of Enfield is essentially just a title.The Marquises of Welrod, who trade a lot, are more profitable.People will think I just paid for my donation.Well, thank you in that direction. "
"Sure, I'll get back to you when I'm ready."
When Isaac reached out, Oscar firmly gripped back.
At this time, Oscar's guilt had already been lost.
It's not just profit, it's action for the Reid kingdom.
From Oscar's eyes, Isaac's smile seemed more evil than before.
