The Dictatorial Lords

Locke has been very comfortable these days. Such days are relatively rare in this year.

Take a look at Orz in recent years. There are more things this year. Either war is war. There are also business matters. But it's pretty much gone now.

But just when Locke was about to spend a few days in peace, an unexpected guest came to Orz.

who is it? Remember Archduke Ellen a year ago?

Today, it was Grand Duke Ellen and her daughter Ariana, who came to Orz with their big and small bags.

Of course, these big and small bags are all gifts for Locke. Even if it was the meeting ceremony for the first time the two met.

When Zhang Zhao sent someone to notify Locke, Locke really didn't expect that at this time, it was actually Grand Duke Ellen with his daughter. I don't know what is worth the grand duke's coming in person.

When Locke came to the conference room, Zhang Zhao was accompanying Archduke Ellen.

Seeing Locke come in, Zhang Zhao stood up and said, "Your Majesty, this is our city lord, Lord Locke."

"My lord, this is Grand Duke Ellen. I won't introduce another one, right? I believe you are more familiar with me than I am, my lord."

Locke knows who Zhang Zhao is talking about, isn't this Arianna? Locke still remembers what happened last time clearly.

Ariana, who was sitting next to Archduke Ellen, saw Locke walk in. Her body trembled visibly, Arianna really didn't want to recall the days when she was here. It can be said to be a nightmare. If Grand Duke Ellen hadn't come here for business this time, Ariana really didn't want to come here again.

Even when she left last time, Ariana said that she would come here again in the future, but this year of study. Only then did I realize that I was really naive before. It is not so easy to survive in this world. Especially in aristocratic circles.

Arianna stood up cautiously and said, "Lord Locke, hello, I have caused you trouble by coming to Orz with my lord father this time."

Locke looked at the girl in front of him and said with a smile: "Haha, if I remember correctly, your name is Ariana, right? How could it be troublesome? I am very happy that you can come. Do it. Haha"

Locke sat on the sofa and looked at Archduke Ellen and said, "I don't know why the Archduke came so far this time? After all, I was originally a nobleman of the Eagle Kingdom, but I left for some reason."

Grand Duke Ellen had known for a long time that Locke was a nobleman of the Eagle Kingdom. He also got the development order. Earlier now, some people wanted to recall Locke back to the country to eat Orz. Later, seeing Orz's strength, he never mentioned this matter again.

Grand Duke Ellen smiled and said: "If you don't suggest it, I can call you Locke. Haha. I know your father was a brave knight, but ah, he died early. Otherwise, you have to know how much his son has achieved now. How happy I am to know, haha, the king will help you get rid of that viscount who invaded your territory in a short while. You can rest assured about this. The reason why I came here this time is that His Majesty the King entrusted me to come here. You I also know. Since my son and daughter came back, too many changes have taken place, and I can see all of these. With this incident, why don’t I come here and thank Locke. Haha.”

Grand Duke Ellen took a sip of tea and said: "I won't talk nonsense, let's talk about the official business. After that, we still have time to catch up. This time, His Majesty the King knows that I have already had an intersection with you Orz, so this This matter is my turn. His Majesty the King wants to increase the cooperation with Orz. In terms of daily necessities, especially the kind of coal, corn and cigarettes, you don’t know. Except for food, you Orr I don’t know how popular Ozi’s cigarettes are in the Eagle Kingdom. Due to the quantity of cigarettes sold to our country, many nobles complained.”

"The same is true for His Majesty the King. That's why this incident happened. There is also the steam car that you newly released in Orz. I saw that all Orz's caravans basically have it. It is comparable to our carriages. It’s much faster. The main reason is that there are many moving goods, and there is no need to consider the issue of livestock. It is worth promoting.”

Zhang Zhao listened quietly, and when he heard that the Eagle Kingdom wanted to import those machines from Orz, his eyes sparkled. The only reason Oroz was sold to those caravans at a low price was for advertising? Now those countries finally realize the problem.

Locke also had such an expression as expected.

Grand Duke Ellen looked at the expression on Locke's face and said with a smile: "I knew it, you already knew the business opportunity brought by this matter, right? I heard that your caravan bought this at an extreme price. Are you selling a steam car at a loss? Waiting for the attention of other countries?"

When Locke heard this, he was amused. What is selling at a loss? Ha ha.

He opened the mouth and said: "Your Majesty the Grand Duke. Regarding the steam car of our Orz, there is the reason you said. Our caravan basically bought it. I believe you have also seen the benefits brought by this machine. No matter Whether it’s traveling or transporting goods is the best choice. We still have machinery used in agriculture, would you like to take a look, Your Excellency the Grand Duke?”

Grand Duke Ellen was surprised: "Oh? There are also agricultural machinery? I am really curious about how this agricultural machinery works."

Locke smiled and said, "Then, Grand Duke Ellen, let's go to our farmland now. I believe you will be satisfied. Haha"

Speaking of Locke, he took Archduke Ellen and the others out.

Zhang Zhao had arranged for a few knights to wait outside the door. When he went out, Grand Duke Ellen saw the knights following behind him. Although they were not on horses, their aura was not something ordinary people could pretend.

So he asked, "Locke, is this a famous knight? Haha, is it really more powerful than those knights in our country? Can you tell me what level they are?"

Locke laughed and said, "Why not? Everyone in Orz City knows these knights. They are members of the patrol team, a squad led by Gottstin Jin Extreme Knights. Each of them is an intermediate knight. .”

Grand Duke Ellen nodded. Before coming here, he had learned about these knights carefully. The knights in the patrol team are all intermediate knights, and they are one of the candidates for the knight order. They are led by the Ultra Knight of Orz. It is said that in the battle of Fengxi Kingdom, this Extreme Knight showed stronger strength than ordinary Extreme Knights.

Archduke Ellen knew that all of this could be understood. So it is better not to ask some key questions.

Ariana at the back asked curiously: "Lord Locke, why didn't you see Lord Ellie?" Knight Ellie left a very deep impression on Ariana. That's why I asked.

Locke was a little amused. After all, she is still a woman in her twenties, so it is understandable to be curious about these things. Ariana knows that Eli Knight is also a limit.

"Avery, he's usually at the training ground. He's training his knights. If you want to see him, I'll call him over later?"

Hearing that Locke wanted to call Ellie over, Ariana was shocked and shook her head quickly. She was just curious, why did she call him over? Did you scare me last time?

Grand Duke Ellen saw his daughter like this. Smiling and shaking her head, what happened last time scared her enough. A year has passed and there are still shadows.
