My Empire

"To be honest, our assistance to the elves is free...In this case, naturally, it cannot be the same as the assistance to the dwarves." Chris held the wine glass and shook his head to Faley, the envoy of the elves.

This is the second time he has rejected the Elf clan's request to raise the standard of assistance. Just when the banquet just started, he rejected the Elf clan's similar request.

At that time, Falai, the envoy of the elves, hoped that Ellen Hill could provide the elves with some necessary production equipment and construction materials.

Although the elves are friendly to nature, they are not primitive society and do not live in tree houses. They use leaves as clothes.

They still have some light industries and even heavy industries of their own. The warriors of the elves also wear armor. They also have their own castles, as well as their own national systems and laws.

Of course, they are more close to nature, so buildings also support the system. The appearance of their buildings is not the same as that of human beings. In a sense, they are full of natural aesthetics.

Traveling long distances from afar, these elves have almost nothing now. Most of their castles were destroyed in the war, and the only one who followed them was the huge tree of life.

There is no place to live, and there is no way to continue smelting and replenishing their living utensils, and there is no textile tool to replenish themselves with clothes. The reconstruction of the Elves is almost impossible.

Although Ailan Hill and Gricken provided them with some tents and daily necessities, these things are really a drop in the bucket for the entire population of millions of Elves.

What makes the elves even more depressing is that there is no harm if there is no comparison. Their former allies, the dwarves, can get far more things than they get.

These dwarves have even begun to rebuild, and everything is in order, because Ailan Hill also provides advanced computing support such as overall planning, so that the entire reconstruction work has been done with half the effort.

Therefore, under the premise that there is no other way, Falai has just asked Chris again, hoping that Alan Hill will increase assistance to the elves. They need to settle their own people before they can start production. Although the elves do not lack food in theory, they still need other things.

"We can exchange it with food... but we need to be in arrears for several months." Farley offered a compromise plan. The elves can control plants with affinity, so they can always use less land to get a bigger harvest.

But now, in an era when all walks of life in the empire were short of materials, it was not particularly cost-effective for Ailan Hill to exchange food for more things.

A large amount of materials squeezed the production capacity, and Chris did not want the iron ore he mined to be produced into pots and pans to help others.

"Perhaps, we can cooperate to achieve mutual benefit and mutual benefit, and it is easier to establish a trust relationship." Chris thought for a while, looked at Farley and said: "The elves can send their own magicians to Ailan Hill. Serving the agriculture of Ailan Hill."

"We also hope that you can provide more magical technical support in environmental protection, animal protection, and environmental transformation." He shook the glass in his hand and continued: "These magics from Ailan Hill Teacher, we will provide living allowances and pay them wages. This can also ease the current pressure of reconstruction of the elves."

"This is indeed a good way." After hearing Chris's suggestion, Faley was also very interested in this plan: "I can accept this plan. Personally, I am even willing to work in Ailan Hill immediately in exchange for Ailan. Hill’s various support."

"Of course, if the elves are willing to have a deeper level of cooperation, then we are still willing." Chris saw that the other party no longer thought about the unrealistic things like reaching out for nothing, so he was willing to talk to the other party more. Sentence: "The specific cooperation depends on the abilities of the elves in these aspects."

In fact, Chris also hopes to win over some elves and do something to improve the environment of Ailan Hill.

In his opinion, the elves can make the forest grow faster, which means that Ailan Hill has more wood.

More greening can also improve the air quality in Ailan Hill, which is also an important measure to benefit the people.

There is also Chris’ space program, in which the experiment of using the elves to conduct oxygen-generating vegetation growth in outer space is so important that part of the hope of continuing to survive in outer space falls on this experiment.

If you count the benefits of increased agricultural production, in fact, super farmers like the Elves are still very useful.

Of course, all of this has a necessary prerequisite, that is, the elves must be under the control of Ailanhill and serve Ailanhill in all sincerity!

"Your Majesty, if, I mean, if we are willing to send an army to fight for you, would you be willing to pay for it?" Falai suddenly asked about another topic that the senior elves are more concerned about.

Although the elves are already unbearable for a war, this race with almost all soldiers can still make up a large army.

As long as Ailan Hill is willing to provide supplies for this army, they can still defeat many opponents at least, dealing with magic empires such as the puppet empire, there is no problem at all.

What the elves plan to do is that, in this way, it will not only feed an army, but also get some rent for renting this army, which is typical of multiple actions.

In fact, there are some hawks in the elves who are unwilling to admit defeat and are willing to fight forever, but they have suffered heavy losses now, and their momentum is not as strong as before.

How to place these pure soldiers is also a headache for the elves. They hope that Ailan Hill can use these people to gain more benefits for the elves by the way.

But Chris was unwilling to pay for his own army to feed a group of other forces. This kind of thing is actually very difficult to handle, it will easily affect the relationship between the two parties and cause confusion.

The more important thing is that Chris now does not lack an army that can recruit well. His army is almost invincible now, and there is no need to feed an alien army that is not much stronger than his army.

"I think this matter needs careful discussion before a decision can be made. I personally think that the current battlefield situation is very beneficial to Allan Hill. Our enemies are retreating steadily, and we have taken the initiative in all theaters. Next..." Chris shook his head and said, "It is completely unnecessary to continue to increase the frontline investment."

He just finished his television speech. In the new year of Ailan Hill, the focus of his work has shifted to the research and development of new technologies and people's livelihood.

If this is not the case, Chris does not need to rush to find the Elves to improve the environmental conditions of Ailan Hill, and is willing to pay a fee for this.

This is the focus of Ailan Hill's next work and the beginning of the gradual return of the country to normal.

Just yesterday, after basically confirming that the dwarves would join Ailan Hill, Chris drew up a plan to reduce the total number of Ailan Hill's army from 10.32 million to 9.55 million!

The soldiers recruited in this disbandment are the first time in the last year and a half that Ailan Hill has reduced the total force to less than 10 million.

At the same time, this was the first time that Ailan Hill took the initiative to disarm some soldiers and returned them to their hometown.

In addition, Chris also decided that in the next month, one million veterans who have served for more than two years will take turns to go home and rest for half a year!

These benefits were accompanied by a series of livelihood policies introduced by Ailan Hill, making the entire empire immersed in ecstasy. The common people's love for His Majesty is unprecedentedly high, and almost everyone is praising this unprecedented great empire.

In such a big environment, Chris didn't think it was necessary to spend money to hire wizards from the elves to make trouble on the front line.

Falley heard Chris say this, although he had guessed the answer before, but it was still a bit regretful.

"Well, if your Majesty has the need in this regard, we can still discuss cooperation." He considered for a moment, nodded and accepted the reality. Then he tasted the mellow, high-quality red wine, and changed the subject to praise: "This wine is really good, we also have fruit wine, but although the taste is more natural, it does not have such an impressive feeling."

"If you like it, I can give you some personally." Chris doesn't mind being a little generous at this time.

Falai shook his head with a smile, and refused: "If you want, I would prefer to exchange these precious drinks with materials of equal value and present them to our entire elves."

"Hahaha, Mr. Farley is really a good manager who cares about his people." Chris laughed loudly, then drank the wine in the glass, and then laughed: "I will send you the drinks, not only A copy, and a copy for Her Majesty the Queen. As for the equivalent supplies, Mr. Farley, when you leave the banquet, you can bring it back to the Elves."

Although these red wines are not cheap, they are not rare wines. So Chris can give it out lightly without feeling distressed at all.

For the elves, one truck of bread and two trucks of bread are just a drop in the bucket, and there is no substantial difference at all.

Hearing what Chris said, Farley also laughed and held up the wine glass: "Then I will be your Majesty, thank your Majesty for her generosity." —

The other two will be in the middle of the night, so you can watch them tomorrow morning.
