Chapter 1083 sky-high price

Nefi greeted her in a proper manner - she spent two years at Mofengte College. As a genius who was specially cared for, the vice president and various professors were very familiar with her, and the vice president Konos even arranged a laboratory for her personally.

Roddy probably guessed the reason and explained at this time: "Nefi's study life depends on the care of Vice President Konos. I would like to express my gratitude here - now she is my personal secretary, responsible for recording and handling some of my personal chores, so she will record the next meeting, if MP Konos minds..."

"Don't mind, don't mind!"

Konos posed very lowly, and he didn't politely after sitting down, and said directly: "After learning about the war on the front line, the Council believed that the long-range weapons and vehicles equipped by the Kingdom of Karen were very powerful. We had talked about buying trucks before, but...those things obviously cannot be comparable to the weapons you use."

Yesterday, he bombarded the enemy's position, and today Konos appeared directly in front of him. Roddy was actually more curious about another question: "Oh? Is the decision of the parliament so fast now?"

"Ah...this..."

Konos smiled awkwardly: "It was to modify some of the regulations, of course, to improve the efficiency of deliberation."

"That's a good thing," Roddy smiled, and then said bluntly: "But at present, these weapons are complex in production processes and scarce in materials. I am afraid that I can't sell all models for sale. However, some of the ones that are easy to produce should be sold to your country within the next three months to improve the level of national defense."

Konos responded to what "defense level" means, and then asked: "Then Prime Minister Roddy, what model of weapons can you buy here?"

"'Groundhog' self-propelled artillery car."

Roddy had a good idea and introduced: "I know you want to buy the "Vulcan" heavy artillery with a range of two kilometers and each shell can reach the power of the Flame Explosion Technique, but its output cannot keep up with the use of the army. However, the "Groundhog" is much better in comparison. Although its power is not that great, the warhead is not a cannonball equipped with a crystal, but a solid metal bomb. It can completely ignore the enemy's threat of the "Demon Forbidden Field" and cause a lot of damage."

When Konos heard that it was not the heaviest artillery, his smile was much more restrained, but he thought about it and knew that even if the mass production could keep up, he would not easily sell such powerful weapons after changing to himself. Besides, Roddy said that he could use it in the "Demon Forbidden Realm", so he couldn't help but ask seriously: "Then what is the price of this 'Groundhog' artillery car?"

"Each 20,000 gold coins includes a gun barrel that can shoot twenty shots per minute and six drive crystals."

Roddy said clearly: "But you need to solve the following crystals yourself. I can give you twenty shells. If you buy shells alone, one will cost about twenty gold coins."

After hearing this, Konos was stunned for a long time, his lips trembled slightly and asked, "One shell... twenty gold coins? In other words, four hundred gold coins are required to be shot in one minute?"

With Rasimman's gold coin purchasing power, four hundred gold coins are enough to simply arm a twenty-man infantry team, including helmets, weapons and leather armor, and even manage the food for the previous month.

And such a price is reimbursed in one minute on the "Groundhog" artillery truck?

He was not surprised by the expensive selling price of "Groundhog" of 20,000 gold coins, because Konos had made enough psychological expectations before coming - but the artillery carts themselves are a one-time deal, and these shells are the real "big heads"...

Therefore, when he heard such a offer, he immediately shook his head: "Prime Minister Roddy, although we know that such weapons are powerful enough, I think the offer you gave is really too high! You must know that if I buy four 'Groundhog' artillery trucks and two thousand shells, the price will be enough to cultivate a fully armed heavy cavalry team; even if it is to train intermediate mages, it will be at least twenty or more."

Naifie next to him listened to this, because he didn't know what to write, so he sat there and calculated the price casually, and finally calculated the astronomical number of 160,000 gold coins...

Even if this money is placed in the Kingdom of Karen, even the great nobles above the Earl cannot directly collect the cash, and Roddy just sold four artillery cars and some shells?

Nefi looked at Roddy, waiting for his explanation.

"That's right, MP Konos. Whether you're talking about the cavalry brigade or the intermediate mage, whether they are powerful or not, they use the fighting style of the current era. But I hope you... and other members of the council think about a question: is my army able to reach this point because of my cavalry's brave charge, or because of my mage's skill?"

Konos was speechless and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"A weapon, when it reaches a certain level of range and power, can completely change the way of war. I hope you can try to understand this."

Roddy looked earnest and taught, and although his tone was calm, Konefi heard an aggressive smell. And the MP Konos obviously could not accept such a few empty words, and his face looked a little ugly: "I hope the Prime Minister can speak through facts, rather than these empty and empty concepts... For war, the Rassieman is not a three-year-old child."

"Of course, I can understand the doubts in the minds of the MP, so - today I chose to talk to you about arms sales, mainly because the vision here is good enough."

Roddy said and pointed to the guide. Member Konos narrowed his eyes and then realized that an army was moving towards the river bank. Because the distance was too far, he could only see about four square arrays, but there was no idea how many people were.

At a distance of two kilometers, looking at people is almost the same as looking at ants. However, as a high-level mage, he naturally has a way to observe. After raising his hand to cast the spell, a mirror-like light curtain appeared in front of him, and the scenery that was magnified ten times was reflected.

"Is this... ready to attack? Your total number seems to be only three thousand?"

"Two thousand six hundred people, four groundhogs, and two Vulcans."

Roddy certainly knew this number. He said it casually and pointed to the Ram River further away: "The enemy has already started to cross the river after his attack was repelled yesterday. Now is a good opportunity."

Of course, Konos knew it was a good opportunity, but in other words, the enemy generals were not fools. Seeing the army coming over, of course they would not just wait passively for being beaten.

He adjusted his observation angle and looked at Yudora's troops, but because of the existence of a thin layer of sand, he could only see the other party's already arranged confrontation formation.
