Chapter 26: The Gambling War


The conditions that came to Zhang Tie to negotiate with the wealthy families of the Ewendala Islands were also well-known figures in the Ewindara Islands, one of whom was Connor, the patriarch of the Renard family on the island of Acre, and the other was the patriarch of the Willis family on the island of Gantiadhu, Brightman.

Both are already over sixty years old, and in this day and age, this age is in the prime of life for many men.

If Zhang Tie hadn't appeared, at this moment, both Connor and Brightman would be the most popular candidates for the Speaker of the Ewendala Council, which is being formed, and Connor, the patriarch of the Renard family, is the most important behind-the-scenes driver behind the Ewendala Council.

Seeing Connor, Zhang Tie took a serious look at this guy's gray-brown hair, high and bulging hooked nose, deep sunken eye sockets, and powerful chin, and he was not a simple figure at first glance.

Compared to Connor, Brightman, the patriarch of the Willis family on the island of Gantiadhu, was like a pampered engineer with glasses, polite, and almost harmless.

Of course, Zhang Tie will not regard Brightman as a harmless engineer The Willis family on Gantiaddu Island has been an ally of the Spencer family in the Ewindara Islands until now, and the relationship between the two sides is very close, and the family that can be qualified to be an ally of the Spencer family is naturally not an ordinary person.

"Your Excellency Peter, this is the condition that our families in the Ewindara Islands have negotiated, if you can agree to this condition, then everything will be carried out as such, if you do not agree, then, in order to defend the interests of our respective families in the Ewindara Islands, we will not hesitate to fight the Ice and Snow Wasteland, even if it is a huge price," Connor said, placing a document with the signatures of all the participants in front of Zhang Tie's eyes.

Zhang Tie politely opened the document, but in fact, he already knew the content of the document, Mrs.

Olina, as the landlord of La Mer Castle, is also the coordinator between herself and the various families in the Ewendala Islands, in the past two days, she has already had many contacts with the representatives of the various wealthy families who came to the Blue Castle, and in such contact, Mrs.

Olena has already figured out the bottom line of these wealthy families in the Ewendala Islands.

This document is a condition put forward by these wealthy families in the Ewendala Islands, and their bottom line is that once they do not agree, more than 70% of the wealthy families will withdraw from the Ewendala Islands, and then form the Evendara Parliament in Exile on the Western Continent, constantly making trouble for the ice and snow wasteland, and consuming it with themselves.

It's really tough.

It was none other than Connor, the patriarch of the Renard family, who proposed the formation of an exile council overseas to spend on himself.

"The future of the Ewendala Archipelago will be decided by a desperate battle at sea with one-half of the Borean Fleet and the equal number of the combined fleet of the Ewendala Islands, and if the Borean Fleet wins, the families and islands of the Ewendala Archipelago will be unconditionally submissive to me, and if the Combined Fleet wins, then, in addition to the status quo of Santa Hena Island, the other islands of the Ewendala Islands will also maintain the status quo, and the Ice and Snow Wasteland will no longer seek to annex the rest of the Ewendala Islands" Zhang Tie glanced at the contents of the document, and then raised his eyes to look at Connor and Brightman, "This is your condition I have to say, you are very thoughtful" A smile appeared on Zhang Tie's face, and he didn't know whether it was approval or sarcasm.

This condition seems to be fair, but in fact it is somewhat unfair to the North Wind Fleet, because in all fairness, in terms of the fleet's combat experience and training level, the North Wind Fleet, which has just been formed for less than five years, does have some gaps in terms of personnel quality with the combined fleet of the Ewendala Islands, which has been home to the sea for many years.

This condition is almost carefully prepared to take into account the consequences of the failure of the North Wind Fleet, first of all, if you fail, then the Ice and Snow Wasteland will only lose half of the North Wind Fleet, and secondly, you also retain control of St.

Hena Island, such a result can make yourself "decent" down, so as not to be angry and angry.

"This condition is a gambling battle between fleets witnessed by the knight-level masters of the Ice and Snow Wasteland and all parties" Connor said calmly, "The Ewindara Islands are a place that worships the sea, everyone here has a different feeling for the sea, and will also respect the brave who can truly conquer the sea, the Ice and Snow Wasteland wants to annex the Ewendala Islands, unless the Ice and Snow Wasteland shows the power to make us squeeze on the sea, otherwise, we will not really give in, The only result of wanting to conquer the Ewindara Islands by pure force is that the Ice and Snow Wasteland can only be left in ruinsIn the Ewendara Islands, there is a famous saying that has been passed down for a long time, and I think Your Excellency should have heard it" "What a quote" "A knight can conquer the land, but not the sea" Zhang Tie smiled indifferently, for ordinary knights, it is true, in this world, the area of the sea is far wider than the land, even if the knight can fly, at sea, the knight's flight strength has been greatly reduced, because compared to the flight limit of more than a thousand kilometers for most knights, at sea, this distance is really nothing, and the opposite of the knight, the fleet has stronger maneuverability and concealment ability at sea, and has a greater deterrent to the communication lifeline at sea and other ships sailing on the sea, soThis phrase has only just spread in the Ewindara Islands, and it is not only a statement of the truth, but also, of course, a kind of self-consolation for a knightless island society.

To yourself, this sentence is a joke.

In the face of the joke, Zhang Tie smiled, he didn't care, and he didn't want to argue about anything, Zhang Tie just raised his eyes and glanced at Brightman, "Does the Willis family think so too?"

"This gambling war, defending, in addition to the interests of the Ewendala Islands, is more important is the dignity of the Ewendala Islands, if you can make the families of the Ewendala Islands bow their heads to you in a dignified way, then, I think, this will be a good result for everyone, and the use of force to the end will only hurt both sides."

"Is it dignity" Zhang Tie smiled, "Okay, I agree, I promise that neither I nor the knights of the Ice and Snow Wasteland will make a move, and let the two fleets have a duel in front of everyone, and the fleet that survives at sea in the end is the winner, but I have one condition."

"What conditions" "What I hope to face off against half of the North Wind fleet is the fleet of the Renard family, I know the size of the Renard family's fleet and the strength of the ships, and I can already participate in such a gambling battle."

A bright light flashed in Connor's eyes, but he still maintained a smile on his face, "I agree with just one more thing to remind Your Excellency that in order to ensure the fairness of this gambling war, the various families of the Ewendala Islands have united and taken the initiative to subscribe to the gambling war deposit of 200 million gold coins, and invited Jinpeng Bank to be the guarantor for the performance of this gambling contract."

Hearing this, Zhang Tie only felt that these wealthy families in the Ewendala Islands were really fucking rich, in order to prevent themselves from being laid, these guys actually gathered a deposit of 200 million gold coins at once, and also pulled Jinpeng Bank in as a performance guarantor, it was indeed scheming, it seemed that he had already felt that he had won, the gambling security deposit of 200 million gold coins, if he won it, then, in turn, for the sake of the money, Jinpeng Bank would also supervise the performance of these wealthy families in the Ewendara Islands to fulfill their gambling contracts with themselves.

Generally speaking, this kind of war between turf and power, Suparna Wings Bank will not intervene, but if it is a contract, it is a different matter.

It's just that such a contract can definitely be called a big gamble.

Zhang Tie deliberately thought for a moment with a solemn face, "No problem, I agree" Hearing this, the corners of Connor's mouth couldn't help but float a smile, and even Brightman's eyes when he looked at Zhang Tie were a little more different, that thing was not contempt, but more like a gentle sigh for Zhang Tie's age, wisdom and judgment.

After watching Connor and Brightman leave the room, a smile slowly appeared on Zhang Tie's face, and that smile slowly became brighter If you want to play, then play bigger Zhang Tie's eyes suddenly became extremely profound A side door in the room opened softly, and Lady Olena, dressed in a black dress, came with a hint of melancholy on her face, swaying and swaying, and she had been listening in the next room just a moment ago.

"This gambling battle is very dangerous," Lady Olena said to Zhang Tie.

"Is this the room you usually work in La Mercastle, the room is nice."

Zhang Tie looked at the environment of the room, and said to him.

Lady Olenna's face turned red inexplicably, "Aren't you worried at all?"

"Why should I worry" Zhang Tie laughed and gently hugged Mrs.

Olinna, "Do you want to make money, make a lot of money" Mrs.

Olena paused for a moment, a little unsure of what Zhang Tie meant, "What did you say?"

"Well, now I'm the boss, you are a beautiful secretary who wants to seduce me, a commercial spy, and you want to hear such important business information from the boss's mouth, what do you say you would do" Zhang Tie said seriously, and then sat down on the chair with a loud voice.

Lady Olena's ears were a little red, and there was a layer of charm in those eyes Two hours later, Elder Turing and Elder Gulas also stood in front of Zhang Tie with a smug face on their faces, Zhang Tie only said one word to the two elders, "I don't explain anything, I just tell you, from now on, you will do your best to get money, whether it is in the name of the Ice Giant Bear Tribe, or in the name of the Iron Bear Tribe, you can get as much as you can, whether it is gold coins, loans, mortgages, financing, or the right to pick up gold, whatever, there is an opportunity to make a fortune in front of you, how much you can earn, It's up to you how much you can get, and within ten days, I'm sure you'll at least double the amount of money you get. ” Both elders were stunned On October 2nd, as soon as the news of this gambling battle spread, it instantly caused a sensation in the entire Ewindara Islands and the entire Ice and Snow Wasteland, and everyone was speculating that it was the Ice and Snow Wasteland or the Ewindara Islands that could win this victory On October 3rd, Fortune Wings Bank began to make bankers for this gambling war in the Ice Wasteland and the Ewindara Islands, and began to accept bets from all parties for this gambling battle A gamble that stirred up the entire Blackson Terran corridor began:
