This witch calls me daddy

Chapter 397 Support from friends

"I'll do my best."

Lu Ye smiled and shook hands with Ferad, accepting the commission.

The two Luo Lai brothers next to them no longer said anything about Lu Ye not having time, and directly clapped and congratulated:

"I wish Mr. Lu will gain something as soon as possible, and I sincerely hope to go to Daolang's house to find news about his children and the valuables lost during the tour... Then, can we talk about the matter at hand?"

Ferad Doran smiled and signaled: You can start.

His younger brother Nobel Luo Lai stood up at his brother's signal, faced Lu Ye, and solemnly expressed his position: "After listening to Sophia's relay of the Patriarch's idea, the Luo Lai family decided after serious discussion: Lu Xi, we are willing to participate!"

Oh?
Does this mean that the Luolai family is willing to support him in establishing a mercenary group in the northern city-state?
It seems that Sophia’s work is very effective!
He glanced sideways at Sophia, and sure enough he saw her looking like she was asking for credit:

"The Luolai family deeply admires the courage and courage of Patriarch Kirill and is willing to contribute to the establishment of the Holy Theocracy."

Lu Ye nodded happily, this is a good thing!
But seeing Devin smiling too, he suddenly calmed down again.

Lu Ye controlled his expression and remained calm, but he was making rapid calculations in his heart.

Now he kind of understands how to get along with these two brothers...

Therefore, he would not think that the Luolai family was here to do good deeds, or that they were inspired by their faith. Those were just nice words for the ignorant people.

Otherwise, Dao Lang's statement of "full support" could not hide the excitement in Devin's eyes!

I don’t know how much this statement is worth!
It is estimated to be more than all the possessions of the Demon King on the continent combined.

But even these are things Lu Ye, a country bumpkin mercenary, has never seen before!
Jialan doesn't know what success will look like!

Suddenly such a big deal comes out. How can this be aid? This must be arms sales!
But at the same time, he also understood that the other party had very carefully formulated an arms sales plan based on their current number of people and combat environment. They did not just sell aircraft, artillery, and heavy tanks at the beginning. They could not use the new recruits, so it was better to have more. Selling some wheeled vehicles that anyone can drive can also improve the team's ability to maneuver and transport security.

This is equivalent to the other party donating a company-level combat unit... Taking all the personnel and equipment into account, it's a lot of money in a year.

The real reason must be because it is profitable!
So Lu Ye thought for a moment and asked: "The specific method of your participation is...?"

The trick is: don’t doubt him, just firmly understand him in the direction of being ruthless and profit-seeking. You’re absolutely right!
Just like just now, he thought that the other party was kindly reminding him, but what about the reality? They just want to drag Ferrad into the water!

Lu Ye's eyes opened wider and wider, being directly blinded by Devin's series of weapons and equipment!

Devin looked at his younger brother with approving eyes: "Nobe will personally lead people to join the Guardian Corps as volunteers. There will be about 50 people in total. They don't need to be paid. We will take care of all military supplies by ourselves. We will fully obey your command. We are only here to pay tribute to you." The diocese shows our sincerity.”

But...what does the Luolai family want?
He didn't believe that these rich and powerful children would engage in money-losing business.

Sure enough, Devin added with a smile: "At the same time, we are willing to provide the first batch of combat equipment to the Guardian Group, including 40 general-purpose wheeled vehicles that can adapt to the complex terrain of cities and towns, 12 infantry fighting vehicles, and 4 armored personnel carriers. As well as other vehicles and equipment sufficient to equip a mobile battalion. As the war progresses, we can also provide more weapon categories and models, including tanks, anti-aircraft and infantry fighting vehicles, all of which are the 'Northern Heavy Cavalry' tank series. Of course We also provide a full range of unified repairs and maintenance.”

But... of course it's fun to receive express delivery and open packages, but what about the money? Where did it come from?
"Given the current financial situation of the diocese..."

As soon as he raised the money, Devin smiled shrewdly: "There is no need to worry about money. We all understand the situation of Patriarch Kirill, so this batch of chariots, equipment and supplies worth 1.2 million will be used in a special way." It would be provided to the diocese in the form of a war loan and the debt would be transferred after the establishment of the provisional government, which would be repaid gradually over the next 5 to 10 years.”

Lu Ye was calm on the surface, but thunder was already rolling in his heart!
It turned out that these people were actually planning to borrow money for the war!
Sure enough, these people from the Western Continent had a blood-based passion and yearning for colonization and pioneering, and had rich experience. They immediately came over to make war fortune!
And with a complete solution!
This is not over yet. Nobel Luo Lai then added: "The establishment of a great country will inevitably require pious and loyal builders. We can also help the people of Shandong Province rebuild cities and settlements in the form of reconstruction loans. In this regard, Northern Heavy Industry is worthy of A trusted partner can even provide a considerable number of employment positions to help local production resume." Lu Ye narrowed his eyes and looked at the young master.

He still remembered that this guy looked young, but he was already the chairman of the board of directors of the Northern Heavy Industries Group. He represented the Luo Lai family in charge of the largest industrial group in the city-state. His family controlled the northern shipyards and could even build destroyers. He wanted to rebuild the city. , repairing bridges and paving roads, etc. are of course not a problem.

Lu Ye listened to them quietly, his heart already filled with turmoil.

He was still worried yesterday whether Sophia could persuade the city-state to support Patriarch Kirill. Unexpectedly, in just one day, these sharks came with the same smell!

When her eyes met Sophia's, the second princess smiled shyly like a qualified broker: "My friends are very supportive of your career in Luxi!"

Lu Ye smiled and burst into tears of gratitude.

But he knew in his heart, was this supporting him?
This is to make war fortune!
And the point is, he simply can’t refuse!
Because these are what he and the Patriarch need most!

Guns, tanks, soldiers, supplies, and everything else needed for the reconstruction of the Provisional Government...

When the gamblers behind the war began to place bets one after another, Lu Ye intuitively felt their generosity and generosity, as well as the huge resources they could use, and the resulting pushing pressure!

Only when the war is victorious, the interim government completes the referendum, and officially enters the stage of history, can all these early investors get returns that are several times, dozens of times or even hundreds of times!

When things have reached this point, even if the Patriarch suddenly repented and Lu Ye wanted to lie down and give up, these people would not agree!
Lu Ye took a deep breath, smiled and nodded: "Thank you everyone for your support. I will truthfully report your thoughts to the Patriarch. I believe... he will be moved by your generosity and piety."

Everyone smiled with satisfaction.

Lu Ye suddenly made a turn: "Of course, all of this can only be put on the agenda after the Holy See officially approves the Luxi Diocese's special wartime plan..."

His meaning is very clear, everything is ready, all we need is the east wind. Don't rush me, let's wait for the east wind together.

But Ferad showed that confident gentleman smile again:
"As far as I know, the Holy See's Mysterious Council has initiated a temporary meeting on this matter and organized the cardinals to vote... On this matter, the Dolan family still has some small methods, at least... guaranteeing two votes."

Lu Zhi was shocked!
...Is this okay? !

Devin also showed the same smile: "Cardinal Masri of the Foreign Affairs Court will naturally support the decision of the Industrial and Commercial Alliance. There is no doubt about this."

hiss……

Lu Ye obviously heard that the Luolai family represented not only himself, but also the industrial and commercial alliance behind it!
Even Sophia showed a sweet smile: "Coupled with the close relationship between the northern city-state and the Holy See, I believe... the result will not disappoint you."

Lu Ye really had nothing to say this time...

A total of twelve cardinals voted, and the person sitting here has influenced at least four of them!

How many invisible hands are there promoting the soon-to-be-established Saint Ural Kingdom?
At this time, Sophia's hand gently placed on Lu Ye's shoulder, her eyes full of encouragement and confidence:
"My dear, my father is also pushing for the temporary war assistance bill in the city-state parliament. Once it is passed, more people will support you."

"So just go ahead and do it, use your bravery and wisdom to lead us to victory!"
