THE WORLD DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM

chapter 67's

After testing,

John then calls Tornwall, “I am very happy with the result and with the effect of the ballista being currently enhanced, <TAG1>, the fact that you are trying to improvise this weapon and give us good results is very satisfying.”

John continued as he smiled and said to him, “As for the reward, you will definitely get one type of Alcohol that you have never tasted. I will immediately order the start of the construction of a new distillery on the North-border city to meet our domestic needs, he said, it will still be useful for the city as it will increase employment opportunities and will also increase the popularity of our city when it comes to making unique food and drinks, it would be good enough for an advertisement among the other dukes and the territories of the other nobles. As you know rich is just a lack of experience, not money so in any case it will be better for us. “

Hearing this good news, Tornwall was much more pumped up than usual today. He was already quite excited after the incredible show a while ago, but now he was quite excited because he knew that he would not be disappointed by John because he had already tasted all the food on Hope that John had recently made today and he knew about his quality which is the league regardless of whatever he has eaten and won even as a high official in the country of dwarves.

Dining in Hope and drinking beer from Red has been a favorite moment for Tornwall lately after arriving in the northern border town.

Hearing the news, Tornwall replied to John, “I think, I'm, upgrading weapons of any type is part of my previous job so it is only natural that I help and make better weapons according to our needs. And having John personally make a new alcoholic drink is certainly worth my effort. I guess this alcohol will be as famous as the dish from Hope. If any of my improvements can get you to make more drinks comparable to the dishes from Hope then I will gladly dedicate more of my time just to tasting that beer and wine that unique. ”

Hearing this, John laughed and replied,” Yes, all I can assure you is that after drinking that alcohol, You will not be disappointed with what I experienced after drinking the famous beer and wine in Aelius. “

“But after this event, I want you to take the dwarves personally purchased by me earlier and make a team out of them. The team will focus on producing this Ballista for the winter preparations. The team producing this ballista will have to sign a confidentiality agreement with us. As compensation, they will gain freedom from slavery 2 years earlier compared to the current contract to maintain confidentiality and increase wages plus incentives. “

“So we will practically build a special workshop for the production of this ballad.

However, for political reasons, you will also be required to build a less powerful version of the ballad so that people do not become too wary and hostile towards us this early. ”

Tornwall understood why John wanted to make a less powerful version of Ballista for a show. So that even if the power of the current ballista is revealed then it will be an illusion for their enemies about their current strength, “Oke I will make sure to carry out that command, Is there a plan about a small miniature ballad. Is there a need for a life test. “

John: “Hmm .. yes we will make them equipped for our soldiers if they are good, they can be very useful for our people for their archery training and to practice shooting them, he said, because for the presentation, I can already guess but the power we still need is a live demonstration to make an accurate estimate on the actual weapon. ”

Tornwall asked for confirmation from John,” As for the lower version, how much you want its power and speed to be lowered to a standard level that suits our current situation. ”

John thought a little and said,” Lower his performance by half and I just want to confirm one thing, can all the runemasters increase Ballista's firepower like you did before? well, make 40% of the current strength. “

“Well there are quite a few but it takes a lot of energy and time to carve magical runes to fit the current weapon and if it comes to a runemaster comparable to me? I don't think there are more than 30 people who can carve out runes as good as I can on this entire continent. You see I am someone who focuses a lot when it comes to improving weapons as possible and hence I became acquainted with runes at the beginning in my profession of making weapons. most runemasters could only reach 50 percent of my strength when they made runes. One of my strong points was that when I made the weapon, I knew about it from the inside out and hence the advantages of the other runemasters. “

“Miniature Ballista will be tested a little later after we finish our current conversation.”

“And yes make sure to take all the trusted people who have just been recruited from our current batch of slaves. They can also get wage increases and other incentives that they can take advantage of later if they agree to a confidentiality agreement. I suggest this because we are short on labor. ”

This was one of the ways John wanted to build more trust about him among the slaves who would benefit and reflect about him later on, When the slaves saw more benefits, he said, they will eventually begin to develop a positive image of John that will be useful to John later in the future. He did not want to be seen as someone who dabbled in the slave trade to be seen by historians and people of the future.

Hearing the current wave of good news Tornwall replied in a very happy tone, he smiled widely since he heard that John would make an alcoholic drink personally because of the results. This makes him quite proud.

“I will make sure to tell them about this good news. I am quite sure that they will be happy to work for such a respectable project that will benefit everyone in the northern border town later, whether it be work, defense or honor. to protect their own home. ”

” Since you have given good news about making personalized alcohol, they will be very excited to taste the drink. This will be very welcome news for all dwarves like you. Know we are quite heavy drinkers and love it very much. “

Tornwall grinned and said,” Haha, you don't have to worry about the Gods, either, this will only motivate us to work better so that we earn more and spend more on the things we enjoy most. “

Vlad heard them from the sidelines as he thought of a malicious plan to irritate Tornwall when he joined them with a curious look, “I heard quite an interesting conversation between the two of you and from your expression, ' he said, I can guess that you are valued quite heavily for your current performance. “

Tornwall proudly said after hearing Vlad, “That's right, after my appearance, after, John decided that he would make alcoholic beverages that suit us and we could get access to better alcohol in the northern border town because you know the trade here is pretty low that mana creates shortcomings on certain items that are necessary for everyone. So before when this project started, it was, John promised me that if I could show a good performance then he would consider my proposal to build a distillery dedicated to making different types of new beverages and he would personally make one alcoholic drink as my gift. So I guess my face pretty much reflects my current happiness. “

Vlad thought of Tornwall's answer and said, “So that's why you're so happy because from what I know, you know, very few things can make you happy unless it's alcohol related or it's related to new technology and those are also things that can make you angry easily. So the reason this time is related to alcohol, hmmm .. ”

Vlad continued with a timid smile when he knew what would be the answer from John but he still said it to the two of them,” However, from what I know, from what I know, there are a lot of people involved in this business, don't make too many enemies, you don't want to upset other men, right? And this time it will be the brother-in-law of the king that you will pee on at this time. From what I know, he is the duke of the center. “

Everyone knew he was the duke of the center but Vlad still emphasized on both of those things.

Tornwall panicked as soon as he saw Vlad talking, “Hey, hey, don't ruin the party here, please, go and deal with your own business and the first deal with the boy there rather than disrupt our important business.”

Tornwall continued and was furious when he heard that another great noble would destroy all his efforts when he said, “As for the muscular people from my capital can only make more weapons if they dare to point their swords towards my Alcohol …

Ahem .. “I mean, if they dare to point their swords towards the Northern Border Town. I won't let anyone dare ruin my plans.”

Both John and Vlad laughed as they watched this show from the sidelines as they were quite amused by the action of Tornwall.

When Tornwall saw this, he understood that he had already been played by Vlad when he made that statement before. Tornwall's entire head turned red after realizing his current situation when he angrily pointed his finger at Vlad and cursed him, “Damn, you've planned all of this from the beginning because it couldn't hold my happiness. It's not like that, is it?”

Tornwall angrily flicked his feet, he thought a little and said to Vlad with a timid smile, “I'll make sure to make weapons below par without runes when it comes to your deal, now let's see who's gonna have the last laugh. Hahaha... “Tornwall laughed with a high nose when he said that to Vlad.

Vlad smiled cunningly and said to him, “Well just for your information, I made sure to add a clause that will have consistency in weapon quality for both sides. John and Bluesea were home when I signed him with John so it's not me whether you make a good weapon or not.

Vlad snorted and continued, “As for those runes, I don't need them, I can still rent one of them from the Fire Abyss kingdom. ”

Tornwall was quite upset because he heard that Vlad had been a factor beyond expectations when he had a deal with John, but he still answered.

” Can you really? I wonder because from what I know they are not easily persuaded and make them work for others. “

“Well, I can make them work forcibly for me, so there will be no big problem,” Vlad said without shame, instead he was proud of it.

John watched as the two of them fought each other,

John stopped their fight and said to the two of them seriously, “Tornwall, you don't have to worry, they will attack us sooner or later so you don't have to worry about them attacking us. The only question is when they will make the big move. As for those alcohols, I will only make it a luxurious wine at first that will only be served in my Mansion, Hope, limited number of specialty Stores daily in the northern border city and our business partners to appropriately handle this situation so that you and your parents do not have to worry about Wine shortages. It will still improve the reputation of our city in the long run so that it is better this way. “
