Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

"I will give you an armed army and you will solve the trouble for the Hungarian copper mine for me."

After Gultfugel made this suggestion to Alexander, he waited patiently for his reply.

Gult was not in a hurry. He knew that Alexander would definitely agree. Although this was obviously too far away from the exchange conditions proposed by Alexander before, Gult knew that the final result would be what he thought.

Bargaining is a compulsory course for businessmen, but Gult knows that if the strengths of the two sides are too different, there is no possibility of bargaining.

The only thing Alexander could accept was not to solve the problem of the Hungarian copper mine in exchange for the plan to support him, but only to agree to build an army for him.

This is what he can get, and Gulte believes this is exactly what he needs right now.

The essence of bargaining is not how to force the other party to accept his condition, but to know what condition the other party can accept exactly.

Obviously, according to Gult's observation, he is now for Alexander, an army with a sufficient number of people and good equipment is more urgent than his plan. This is what he heard about Alexander's recruitment. You can guess if the number of soldiers is not satisfied.

When he heard such important news, Gulte spent only a few insignificant gold coins.

"What you want is an army, and I can meet your requirements," Gult said slowly. "Trust me, all you need now is these things. I can provide you with a sufficient amount Money for the entire army. "

Alexander was silent, he was weighing the gains and losses of this matter.

He actually had great expectations for the Fugel family.

In addition to possessing huge wealth, the Fugel family is like a daunting behemoth because of a complex and huge network of relationships.

The people of this family can walk into the court of any European monarch at will, and they will also receive hospitality. Compared with today's Fogel, the Medici family, which is also famous for being rich, is now facing exile everywhere, almost almost The dilemma of poverty.

Because of this, Alexander did not consider going to the Medici family, because he knew that it is impossible to get any substantial help from the Medici family today.

It's just that the person in front of him is obviously not easy to deal with. The conditions he proposed are very harsh. Compared with hoping to get an investment in the port share, his commitment is almost like exchanging a copper coin for a gold coin.

It ’s just that Alexander knew that Gultvogel obviously put forward this condition after he had inquired a lot of things. Because of this, he was able to sit on the opposite side so easily after bidding at will, because he knew he was obviously This price cannot be rejected.

"How can you help me?"

After pondering for a while, Alexander finally asked.

There was a slight smile on Gurte Vogel's stretched face. Although he told himself not to relax so easily, the progress of the event made him unable to help himself.

Compared with the plan to expand the port share, investing a sum of money in Alexander to help him build an army is obviously more cost-effective, and compared with the copper mine in Hungary, this money is even negligible.

"I can provide you with a cost enough to equip at least 6ooo infantry and 2ooo cavalry, which can also include a batch of artillery," Gultvogel said seriously. "I noticed that you have a group of soldiers in your army. There are a lot of guns used, and I can provide you with all the copper and other materials you need to make firearms. "

"You are talking about my Agri Musketeers." Alexander nodded.

"Okay, you can see that you are very proud of your Musketeers, so I can provide them with an extra amount of money to make their equipment more sophisticated," Gultvogel said generously.

He feels that Alexander is no different from other little nobles who are trying to get sponsorship from his family. They always hope to get more money, and the Fugel family is also generous to them, because just like his uncle. As Jacob Fugel said, every copper coin spent may turn out to be a thousand-fold return, so the Fugel family is never stingy in this regard.

Alexander looked at the opposite Gult. Of course, he knew what this person was doing. In fact, compared with him, the capital invested by the Fuggers in the nobles, big and small, had long been called an astronomical figure. It was an Emperor Maximian, and the Fugger family almost wiped out all the savings in the money bank.

However, compared with many years later, in order to support Charles V to ascend to the throne of the emperor, he invested huge sums of money of 70 thousand Ducat, the present Fugel family is not so scary.

However, because they had not become such a behemoth, Alexander was more concerned about letting them join his own plan.

Alexander is very clear that when the Fugger family completely relies on the Hungarian copper mine to monopolize the entire European market, as long as they realize the huge potential hidden in his plan, then the Fugger family ’s habit of eating single food will definitely fall. Heavy money and he grabbed the market share of those ports, and at that time, regardless of whether his plan was successful or not, he was not sure to compete with the largest wealth family in Europe.

So Alexander ’s plan was to wait for them to compete with him now, instead of taking the initiative to lead this rapidly expanding beast of wealth in the direction he hopes.

But now it seems that things are not going well. Gutt Fugel's chips are too small, or disproportionate to what Alexander can pay.

"I can also provide a sum of money for the repair of your castle of Montina," Fogle said slowly while watching Alexandria silently, and then he shook his head. "Don't expect me to come up with anything more By the way, we do n’t know if you can help if you can help, and all that I can offer you is something you may not get for ten years. "

Alexander admits that Gult is right, while sneering in disapproval.

It took him more than 2 years to become a party lord from nothing, so he did not take Guert's words seriously.

But if you think about the real goal in your heart, Alexander actually has to admit that he is actually very useful.

Does it really take a few years before it reaches what Gult describes?

Maybe it can be done in 5 years or less, but do you have that time?

"Twenty thousand scale," Alexander said suddenly, and he looked at the little Fugel in front of him. "I want the Fugel family to pay me at least the funds to build a 15ooo infantry and 4ooo cavalry. Artillery unit. "

As Alexander raised his hand, he stopped what Gultvogel would say unpleasantly.

"I suggest that you go with me to see my army, and then you decide whether or not to agree to the conditions."

"Your army, just like the southern mountain people in ragged clothes?" Gultvogel said funny, "I know that your current army is different from others in some places, but can't you guarantee that you recruit Can everyone be the same as these soldiers now, if your army ca n’t, it ’s just that. ”

Looking at Gultvogel's disapproving look, Alexander did not refute, but stood up and walked to the window. He made a slight gesture towards the window and then returned to the table to sit down.

"I hope you can always be so confident."

Alexander smiled slightly. He picked up the cup on the table and counted it silently. Hearing the increasingly rapid and heavy footsteps outside, Alexander drank the wine in the glass.

When the cup fell on the table, a strange drum sound suddenly sounded from the window!

Along with the drumbeat, a neat and repressive pace came from a distance, and the pace followed the drumstick up and down, accompanied by the drumstick approaching, and when it came to the window, the burst of heavy step sounds had made the original disapproval Gultvogel, who was sitting there, looked sullen and vaguely restless.

"Want to see what my army looks like?" Alexander stood up and walked to the window, turned back and gestured to Gultvogel. "You can see them now with your own eyes, and you can still see them." How to face the enemy. "

Gultvogel walked to the window, when he didn't know when a group of soldiers had gathered on the street outside.

They lined up neatly and densely on the street. The short halberds and spears shone brightly in the sun, and among them, a small group of musketeers were raising their muskets and taking the muzzle from their companions. Protruding through the gap in his shoulder, he pointed at the open space in the street in front.

"What is this, what do you want to say ..."

Gultvogel's words didn't finish.

With a sudden "shooting!" Roar on the street, the whole street was suddenly overwhelmed by a loud and loud sound!

Gultvogel opened his mouth and screamed, he was completely frightened by the sound of these dozens of muskets, his ears buzzed, his heart beating violently because of the shock The discomfort was almost uneasy, and the pungent smell of medicine that spread rapidly after the gunshot made him cough violently.

But his cough hadn't stopped, and there were a series of commands on the street. At the end of the heavy footsteps, Gultvogel heard the terrible roar that made him pale: "Shoot!"

Immediately after the deafening sound rang from the window again, and the smoke from the entire street filled the nose again, Gultvogel's face was white this time.

"My army is equipped with the most advanced muskets and receives the best training. If necessary, I can let them shoot like this without listening until the barrel is blown," the Alexander probe looked out the window. "My soldiers can compare Other armies are loading ammunition faster, shooting twice or even three times as much. I think you understand what this means, and my Phalanx soldiers were recruited from my territory in Agri, they It ’s my lord and my warrior. They can get rid of taxes by serving me, and once they have made merits, they will have the opportunity to obtain permanent tenancy. What do you think will happen when such an army gets on the battlefield? "

Gultfugel looked at Alexandria a little in amazement. He could understand the meaning of these words of Alexandria, and just because he understood that he should really seriously think about how to treat the person and his army in front of him.

Gult came to the window and looked at the team standing outside on the smoke-filled street. He had a feeling that this army stood like a group of beasts hidden in the thick fog of the jungle. The thick smog rushed out and pounced on their prey.

"Can you guarantee that all your troops can be as brave as you said, we all know that maybe a small army may be able to do it, but a larger army may be different."

"The army in front of you was just like the Agri people you just saw, but now they are not only the masters of Montina, but also the masters of Pisa," Alexander looked at his soldiers and expressed relief. Smile "And this is just the beginning, I can assure you that your investment today will determine what kind of return you will get in the future. Do you want to just maintain a pure business relationship, or do you want my friendship at the same time?"

Alexander said that he glanced at the army down the street with his eyes.

Gultfugel stroking his chin with short beards, he had to think carefully about whether it was worth investing in this young nobleman, although he was said to have performed well in the short-lived Romagna War and had just seen The scene also impressed Gult, but he decided to be more cautious.

"Is your army included in your friendship?"

Gult asked carefully, he admitted that he was very impressed with the army, or that the deafening gunshots and pungent smoke really stimulated him, which made Gult have some new ideas.

"If after seeing your army is indeed satisfactory, and I also agree with your terms, can you sign an agreement with me?"

"What do you mean by agreement?" Alexander asked.

"A contract that approximates the employment relationship, you know that just like the French often hire those Swiss, we can also sign a long-term employment agreement, but because it is assumed that I need to fund you, then this agreement must be more in line with me. "Gurt looked at Alexandria." For example, when I asked you to fight for me, you could not refuse, and at the same time, you were also asked to prohibit fighting with our allies. Of course, we will pay you for this. "

Alexander was silent, and the show of things was completely beyond his expectations. From the beginning, he just wanted to talk about a deal, but now it has become the Fugel family to let him be a mercenary, which makes Alexander feel This is really a twist and turns, and afterwards it has become a little unrecognizable.

"Let me see your other army, I do n’t want to hide that I really care about the copper mines in Hungary, I think you also know what that means for our Fugger family," Gurte ’s words vaguely revealed Warning "So as long as you can really help us, we won't be reluctant to remunerate, equip you with an army and sign an agreement at the same time, which is good for all of us, isn't it?"

Alexander's fingers tapped lightly on the window sill while looking at Gulte's smiling face.

He noticed that this was the first time Gult showed his expression. Before, his face was always so dull, he could n’t see what he was thinking,

In fact, even now his smile is very difficult to figure out, but Alexander knows that he probably feels that he has already won, so he deliberately reveals this expression of victory.

The key to a cunning and determined negotiating opponent is that the opponent does indeed have the winning chips.

For the Fugel family, the troubles facing the Bohemian King Vladislas II did not appear suddenly. When the Fugel family decided to fall to the Emperor Maximian, the Ladislas II began to struggle with the business of the Fugel family in Bohemia.

So whether it ’s the problem of the Hungarian copper mine or the conflict with Vladislas II, the Fugger ’s family apparently had a variety of plans, and even Gult heard from his father His uncle Jacob had already made plans to encourage Maximian to fight with Bohemia when necessary and to force Vladislas II to yield.

So for the entire Fugger family, whether Alexander can help them solve the Hungarian copper mine problem is not the only way.

For Alexander, the Fugel family's funding is too important, it can be said that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

It was because of this that Gult did not mind showing Alexander a smile that only a winner would have, because he already knew the result.

"It is equivalent to a 20,000-scale military support, but I don't need the Fugel family to help me build the Montina Castle. I request that money be exchanged for the Hanseatic League ticket. As for the agreement you said," said Alexander looked at the army below. "I can agree to sign a treaty with the Fufugel family, but I hope that this treaty will be signed in a short-term form at a time, no more than 3 months."

Gult raised his eyebrows slightly before hiding the excitement that barely appeared at the moment in his heart.

Speaking of this, a sum of money to fund his establishment of the army was not difficult. Only for the condition of using a sum of money to exchange the Hanseatic League ticket, Gult vaguely felt that something was inappropriate.

Just think about the significance of solving the Hungarian copper mine problem for the family, especially his own ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Gurt felt that everything was worth it.

As for the proposal of signing an employment agreement between the two sides, Gulte sees this as a step forward in fighting for the Fugger family for himself in the future. As for whether it will play any role, it is still not clear.

On a condition that seemed to cost a lot of money, he exchanged the other party's big trouble for solving the problem of the Hungarian copper mine. When watching Alexander sign the draft contract he drafted, Gult's face was finally difficult to hide. The exposed expression of joy.

Holding the draft agreement, just after Alexander left, Gulte couldn't help but burst out of his heart and whispered: "Fool, you don't know what you missed!"

At the same time, outside the door, Alexander looked at the agreement in his hand and his lips were upturned, full of sarcasm: "Idiot, do you really think I will be so fooled?" ...
