Alien Arms Empire

  Chapter 81 81 Have you ever thought about

 It was time for dinner soon. Tang Mo had agreed to treat him, so naturally he wasn't too stingy. After all, he had just extorted a huge sum of money from the elves. It would not be in line with his character if he did not offer some benefits at this time.

 He ​​is not a stingy person, and to some extent, he is a person who is used to spending money - it's just because he has just started, so his performance is not so obvious.

 So, he sent someone to bring a message to Aunt Trish and asked her to prepare dinner properly. He also asked people to purchase some beef and pork, preparing for all the employees to have a good meal.

　　After Aunt Cuixi sent someone to say that dinner was ready, Tang Mo led the two groups of guests towards the employee canteen, which was not luxurious at all.

As he walked, Weiss asked Tang Mo who was walking in front with some confusion: "Boss, do you really think these nobles can return the gold coins they owe you on time?"

 He saw Alice and Tiger walking slowly, as if they were discussing something. They deliberately stayed at the back of the team and had no intention of catching up.

John and his captain were also far away from them. They seemed to be more interested in the soldiers of more than 50 recruit battalions being trained on the roadside.

Tang Mo looked at the two groups behind him and knew that the other party couldn't hear what he was saying, so he smiled and said to Weiss: "I have to say that the reputation of the nobles is sometimes very valuable. Isn't it? ?”

“With all due respect, boss, the reputation of most nobles is not worth 80,000 gold coins!” Weiss kindly reminded Tang Modao.

 “You’re right.” Tang Mo nodded seriously and agreed with Weiss’s point of view. In fact, 80,000 gold coins is really not a small amount. It is not surprising that anyone would do anything for 80,000 gold coins.

"Then how do you know that Mr. John, whom you met for the first time, will definitely send you 80,000 gold coins back?" Weiss heard Tang Mo say this and immediately asked anxiously.

As his recognized master, Weiss really didn't want Tang Mo to be fooled into being cheated out of 80,000 gold coins like this.

Tang Mo glanced at Weiss with a playful face, and then asked, "When did I say that he would definitely send the money back?"

"Then..." Weiss was stunned and looked at Tang Mo with wide eyes.

Tang Mo didn't stop. As he walked forward, he asked in a low voice: "Have you ever thought... that I might have given these machines to him on purpose?"

　　“…” Weiss paused in her steps and almost tripped over herself. He looked at Tang Mo walking away and felt that he didn't understand what Tang Mo meant at all.

When he caught up again, Tang Mo continued: "Actually, we got more than 28,000 gold coins in a short period of time, and used an additional 52,000 gold coins to buy 10 large ships, and there are still some people who are willing to stay. More than 200 sailors and a lot of junk...and what we paid was only three sets of drawings and 2 steam engines...Isn't this considered a profit? "

 “But…” Weiss still didn’t understand what Tang Mo meant.

"But what?" Tang Mo was not in a hurry and just asked.

“But, originally these things were worth 160,000 gold coins.” Weiss felt that he really needed to take a good tutoring course in mathematics.

Tang Mo nodded and did not deny: "Yes, they did sell 160,000 gold coins."

"But we have 80,000 gold coins that we may not be able to get back... You don't have to be in such a hurry to sell everything to John." Weiss was even more confused.

 “You still don’t understand, Weiss.” The smile on Tang Mo’s face became even wider.

As he spoke, he habitually put his hands into his pockets, but found that there were no cigarettes or lighters in his pockets.

So he could only take out his hand in embarrassment: "No one can owe me money, no one... If he comes to pay back the money on time, then I will have one more friend and earn an extra 80,000 gold coins. If he Things get interesting when you don’t pay back on time.”

 “Yes, interesting?” Weiss felt that Tang Mo’s thinking was somewhat behind him.

Tang Mo continued to nod and said with a serious face: "Yes, interesting."

 Soon, a shack appeared in front of everyone. This shack looks extremely shabby. Some of the seats and benches inside are badly worn, but some of them look new.

There is no other way, Tang Mo really has neither the energy nor the spare money to build a decent employee canteen. So this may be the shabbiest place in the entire Datang Group.

There was no decent lighting, and even the forks prepared for the guests were improvised.

 The dinner was not rich at all, just simple vegetables and some pork cut into cubes. Tang Mo, John and Alice also had another piece of steak. For the convenience of dining, Aunt Trish cut it into pieces and served it.

There is no way, there is really only one table knife here, and it is Tang Mo's own - even Roger doesn't have his own table knife, let alone prepare tableware for the guests. "You should prepare some tableware later." Tang Mo said to Roger beside him as he picked up a piece of beef with a fork and stuffed it into his mouth.

John, who was sitting on the other side, could see how shabby Tang Mo was in this aspect, but he didn't care. Anyway, what he really cares about are those machines and weapons, and he has no intention of knowing whether Tang Mo is really poor or pretending to be poor.

However, he still decided to show the generosity of the poplar kingdom in front of another buyer, Alice. So he picked up the vegetables with a fork, waved them in front of him, and said to Tang Mo: "You should prepare some food, some silver candlesticks, and order some good clothes for yourself... Noble, originally You should be like a noble."

"What noble?" Alice put down her fork, wiped her lips with her handkerchief, and asked curiously.

 She came out of the factory without saying a word to Tang Mo. The two of them were not familiar with each other, and Alice deliberately kept silent, so Tang Mo naturally didn't feel uncomfortable.

At this time, it was John who spoke first, and she was really curious, so she asked John first.

John immediately answered with a smile: "I promised to help Mr. Tang Mo obtain the title of baron of the Yangmu Kingdom...So, when I come back with gold coins in four months, he will be the baron of the Yangmu Kingdom."

"Oh." Without saying congratulations, Alice continued to look down at the beef on her plate. Although she was very concerned about Tang Mo's possible fall to the Yangmu Kingdom, she was embarrassed by Tang Mo's rudeness just now, so she suppressed her concern and continued to remain silent.

"In fact, Mr. Tang Mo has become one of the most favored and wealthy nobles in the Yangmu Kingdom with his new industry. If he is willing to follow me to the Yangmu Kingdom, His Majesty the King may even personally grant him He has a higher title." John added when Alice didn't speak.

 Hearing the news, Alice didn't know why, but felt that her heart was about to jump out of her throat. She really didn't think about it. If Tang Mo really agreed to John, how would she and her father Beiling face the next pressure alone.

“Then, did he agree?” Alice forced a smile, maintaining the basic etiquette of a noble.

"I haven't considered developing in the Yangmu Kingdom, Miss Alice." Tang Mo didn't wait for John to continue speaking, and gave the answer with a smile: "In my opinion, my career in Bunas has just begun. So I’m not planning to leave here yet.”

It’s hard to live under someone else’s roof. Tang Mo knows this very well. Not to mention that the pure friendship between him and John might not even be worth 20 gold coins. Even if the two of them had a life-long friendship, Tang Mo would not be able to put down everything he had in Bunas and follow John at this time. Poplar Kingdom.

Of course, if Tang Mo's property here is completely destroyed, he certainly wouldn't mind trying the Yangmu Kingdom for a chance to make a comeback.

“This meal is really unforgettable.” John also reacted at this time. He finally understood why Tang Mo was in a hurry to sell him so many important things.

 Because Tang Mo has no money, because Tang Mo is still in the rough stage of capital accumulation. What Tang Mo needed at this time was time, not cherishing the valuable technology in his hand.

If Tang Mo's technology is swallowed up by Cyric, or simply wiped out completely, then no matter how valuable it is, it will become worthless.

That's why Tang Mo was so eager to cash in, and that's why he couldn't wait to sell the technology in his hands to the elves.

In fact, he only guessed half of it right, because the reason why Tang Mo brought out such advanced technology was, as he thought, that Tang Mo really wanted to buy himself time, and on the other hand, it was also because Tang Mo had more advanced technology in his hands. .

At this moment, Tang Mo’s somewhat weird suit actually hid a more advanced revolver. This was another trump card for Tang Mo to dare to negotiate with John and Alice.

"Yes, the bandits in the Vicious Forest have been reduced by more than half recently, and the trade routes between Bunas and Beiling have become more and more prosperous... It would be a pity to leave at this time." Alice did not look at Tang Mo, pretending to say to herself Said coquettishly.

Tang Mo didn't know why he offended the little beauty in front of him. Didn't he just play a trick on the agreed time for negotiation? This wouldn't be such a violent reaction, right?

He knew that Alice had guessed that Datang Group's private armed forces were clearing the vicious forest, training troops and stabilizing their trade routes.

Although she also felt that the bandits entrenched in the mountains were an eyesore, she also tried to have people lead troops into the mountains to suppress the bandits, but the effect was not very good.

This time it was Tang Mo's turn to send troops to suppress the bandits. I don't know how many troops Tang Mo used, but he actually achieved great results.

So, when Alice said this, she was actually reminding Tang Mo that she knew that Tang Mo was training troops and was stirring up trouble in the vicious forest.

Of course, Tang Mo also heard Alice's voiceover. He smiled and dismissed the matter, pretending to be nonchalant, and chatted with John about the customs of Sussus.
