"If it's this reason, then there's even less need to worry." Xu Yi revealed a faint smile and took out a document from his chest.
Elder Lisanya received it in confusion. She opened the document and looked over it with Elder Elucía, letting out a surprised cry at the same time.
"Chairman Xu, are you serious?" Elder Lisanya raised her head and asked Xu Yi in surprise.
"You're actually willing to transfer a portion of the military magic machine technology to us?"
"Of course I'm serious." Xu Yi nodded.
"Look, there is my signature at the bottom of this transfer agreement. As long as you sign your names, this agreement will officially take effect.
Elder Elucía, Elder Lisanya, look over the agreement. If you're willing to accept it, how about you sign it? "
Elder Elucía and Elder Lisanya were still in disbelief. They picked up the « Military Magic Machine Technology Transfer Agreement » and seriously looked over it.
After a full half an hour, they finally finished reading it in detail.
After thinking for a while, Elder Lisanya cleared her throat and asked, "Chairman Xu, this agreement only states that your New Flyer will transfer the military magic machine technology to us, but it doesn't state the price we should pay. I'm afraid ….. this isn't right, right?"
"Because the price I want you to pay isn't suitable to be written in this agreement."
Xu Yi revealed a faint smile. Under the surprised gazes of the two elders, he walked out of the treehouse and pulled Agnes who was holding the child by the moon well in.
"Elder Elucía, according to the rules of us humans, when marrying a wife, you have to give some things to the wife's family as a betrothal gift.
After Agnes married me, I didn't think of this and that was my negligence.
Now I'll use the things written in the agreement as a betrothal gift, what do you think? "
Elder Elucía looked at Xu Yi in surprise and then looked at Agnes. Finally she looked down at the agreement in her hand and took a deep breath before saying with a sigh, "Chairman Xu, the rules of you humans really make people feel uncomfortable.
But ….. Alright, Agnes is already married to you, so she will live and die with you. She is your life partner, so it's normal for you to do anything for her, so I'll accept it. "
"Many thanks for elder's help." Xu Yi gave Elder Elucía a serious bow.
"Chairman Xu, could it be that this agreement is only for the Nightsong tribe?" Elder Lisanya on the side suddenly asked in a deep voice.
Xu Yi smiled and turned to give Elder Lisanya a serious bow. He said in a serious tone, "Elder Lisanya, after being together with Tvisti for a while, I have deep feelings for her. I hope that I can be with her forever to be together with her.
So I'm asking you to allow her to be with me until the end. "
Hearing Xu Yi's words, the three elves in the room were all stunned.
Elder Lisanya was stunned for a bit before asking back in disbelief, "Chairman Xu, you ….. You want Tvisti to marry you?"
"I'm very interested in this." Xu Yi said with a nod.
"This ….." Elder Lisanya rarely showed a trace of panic, but after calming herself down, she felt very happy.
She arranged for Tvisti to be by Xu Yi's side because of this.
"Alright, I agree."
Elder Lisanya was a very straightforward elf who didn't drag things out. Seeing that Xu Yi's request was to her liking, she immediately agreed.
"So this agreement can be considered your betrothal gift for Tvisti?" Elder Lisanya raised the military magic machine technology transfer agreement in her hand.
"That's right."
Elder Lisanya looked at the confused Agnes and couldn't help laughing. She shook her head and said with a sigh, "Chairman Xu, you really are willing to pay a price for Agnes."
Xu Yi immediately said with a serious face, "I just said it, Agnes is my wife and the one she's holding right now is my son, my closest relative.
For them, no matter how much I pay, it's worth it.
As for Tvisti, I really like her and there's no other reason. "
"Is that so?" Elder Lisanya looked at Xu Yi with a deep gaze, but she didn't say anything else.
Elder Elucía was silent for a bit before pulling Agnes out. It was clear she had something to say to Agnes.
When there was only Xu Yi and elder Lisanya left in the room, elder Lisanya gave a soft laugh. She reached out to tap on the contract and a faint red glowing mark appeared at the end, representing that she had signed the contract.
"Chairman Xu, you're letting us elves have powerful weapons like the military magic machines, aren't you worried that other humans will see you as a traitor?" Elder Lisanya suddenly asked.
"In the history of humans, there have been more killings of humans than of other races.
Even now, the Sines are still at war with each other.
So to me, there isn't much difference between humans and other races.
The only thing that decides what I do is my relationship with them. "Xu Yi replied.
"Then if we have a conflict with other humans in the future, or even a war, which side will you stand on?" Elder Lisanya kept asking.
"If I said that I would stand on the side of justice, would you believe me?" Xu Yi asked back.
"Even if I believed it, would you believe it yourself?" Elder Lisanya gave a tit for tat question.
Xu Yi was silent for a bit before suddenly revealing a smile and saying with a shrug, "We'll talk about it when the time comes.
Speaking of conflicts between elves and humans, elder Lisanya, have there been any movements from the Sack Kingdom recently? "
"Yes.
Just last month, the Sack Kingdom's Spirit Turtle Regiment tried to invade this territory, but they were defeated in the end. "
"Oh?
Did they make any special movements? "Xu Yi kept asking.
"There weren't any special movements, but there were some things worth paying attention to."
Elder Lisanya had Xu Yi wait before turning to look in the cabinet in the treehouse. Finally she took out a few pieces of paper for Xu Yi.
Xu Yi took it and found that it was a few drawings. The pictures on the paper looked a bit familiar.
"Don't you find it familiar?"
"These are the military magic machines developed by the Sack Kingdom?" Xu Yi looked over the drawings in his hand and gave a cold laugh.
"Hei, the outer appearance is quite similar, but I don't know if the core is the same."
"According to the reports from the clansmen who clashed with the Spirit Turtle Regiment, although the military magic machines of the Sack Kingdom can't compare to the military magic machines of your New Flyer, they are much stronger than normal weapons. At least they have half the power of your New Flyer's military magic machines."
"Only half?" Xu Yi stroked his chin before curling his lips in disdain.
"To think that I purposely revealed so much confidential information to them. In the end, they could only develop these lousy things. How disappointing."
"I say ….. Chairman Xu, I never understood. You clearly found the spies the Sack Kingdom placed in your company, so you could have avoided this situation.
Why didn't you do this and deliberately give them some information?
If that's the case, why don't you just give us the precious information? "Elder Lisanya said with a hint of resentment in her voice.
There was a trace of resentment in Elder Song's voice, "I was hoping that after the Sack Kingdom received this information, they would work hard to develop something that even our New Flyer couldn't develop.
But now it seems like ….. they really are lacking. "
"Isn't that certain?" Elder Lisanya asked with a strange expression.
Elder Song's face was filled with a strange look, "Chairman Xu, you've always said to me that creating a complete industrial system requires very complicated steps. To promote the development of any technology, it has to be based on deep research, it can't appear out of thin air.
But now you're hoping that the Sack Kingdom can develop something that even your New Flyer couldn't develop without any foundation, isn't this too much of a fool's dream? "
Xu Yi said with a bitter smile, "This is my wishful thinking from a few years ago because I felt that the magic machine industry was a new thing, so there might be many magic that I didn't know existed. So other people might have innovations that we didn't have.
But now facts have proven ….. that the basic laws of science are applicable everywhere ….. "
"Then what do you want to do now?
Keep having expectations for the Sack Kingdom? "
"No need." Xu Yi shook his head.
"My thoughts are different from before, it's not reliable to rely on others and it's also a kind of lazy thinking.
The most reliable thing is to take things one step at a time.
So ….. Elder Lisanya, when we go back this time, I'll send five hundred guards to help you drive away the Sack Kingdom's Spirit Turtle Regiment. "
"That's great." Elder Lisanya immediately smiled happily.
Elder Lisanya revealed a happy smile, "This Spirit Turtle Regiment staying here has a large effect on the plants we plant, which indirectly affects the speed of our fertilizer production. I've already wanted to drive them away."
"Un, actually if you take out the fertilizer as a threat, I think that the Sack Kingdom will obediently withdraw the Spirit Turtle Regiment." Xu Yi said.
"I don't want to do this.
The fertilizer is a normal product of our Moon Shadow Tribe, it's not something that can be used to threaten others. "Elder Lisanya shook her head.
Xu Yi couldn't help rolling his eyes. Actually, there were many times when fertilizer was an important commodity to the people, so the threat it brought was even more terrifying than an army.
Of course, the premise was that you had to have the strength to defend it.
