Chapter 297 (2/2)
Fiona said that with great ease, she was suddenly stunned. Her face was slightly red. She took up her glass and covered it up. She accidentally entered the sales state
Victor was stunned for a moment and turned to Donne and said, ”Baron Donne, you have found a very good treasurer... If I have her help, maybe the Royal industry will turn a loss into a profit.”
”Fiona is really one of my best helpers.”
Donne said with a smile, ”so what do you think?”
”Of course!”
Victor raised his glass and said with a smile, ”there is no more suitable way to deal. Then sign the contract.”
This kind of transaction is also a helpless move. Donne's Datang chamber of commerce is really making money now. It's not too much to say that it can make money every day, but it can't afford it. Victor also needs gold coins, but those products are more important. They can not only liberate agricultural productivity, increase production efficiency and reduce the pressure on food in disguise, but also help expand the market of magic crystal.
Don't forget that Donne and Victor's first goal is still the crystal energy plan!
After popularizing more magic energy machines and even meeting domestic demand, they will continue to export to other countries, continue to expand the market, make everyone aware of the broad market of magic crystal, and raise the low price of magic crystal again. At that time, those who have magic crystal mines will no longer have to worry about gold coins.
After three rounds of wine, Victor suddenly said, ”Baron Donne, in view of your great contribution to the Empire, I want to promote you to hereditary count. What do you think?”
Princess Aurelia was shocked at the speech, and her face was full of incredible.
From a baron to a hereditary count?
Father, what does that mean? Drink too much?
Obery and Adrian and Princess Aurelia felt the same, and the wine in their mouths almost gushed out.
Hereditary titles are different from ordinary aristocratic titles. The two are not a concept at all. Getting hereditary nobles means that as long as the Empire does not die, Donne and his descendants can obtain the noble glory and power recognized by the royal family no matter how useless they are.
Why on earth did Victor trust him so much?
Even give him so much freedom?
The smiling parrola looked at Victor in surprise and wondered what had happened to her brother.
The Ilus Empire has been established for more than 800 years, conferring only more than ten hereditary nobles, and almost all of them were the founding heroes of that year.
From Victor's succession to the present, he has never canonized any hereditary aristocracy. It can be seen how special the hereditary aristocracy is.
What happened to him today? Why did you suddenly think of canonizing a hereditary aristocrat?
What is so special about Donne that he deserves so much attention?
Don shrugged: ”it doesn't matter.”
Seeing his indifference, Aurelia clenched her teeth angrily. Don't you know what a great honor this guy is!?
It can be said that once the news comes out, in the blink of an eye, Donne will become the hottest aristocratic star in Alex!
Everyone knows what hereditary aristocracy means - ordinary aristocracy will be deprived, but once the identity of hereditary aristocracy is recognized, it is permanently valid.
Unless stupid enough to betray the country.
Is it such a special honor that he doesn't care?
Aurelia wants to strangle this unscrupulous bastard!
”In that case, it's so decided!”
Victor said with a smile: ”Baron Donne... No, now it should be count Donne's credit to the Empire. In fact, he should deserve a higher status, but in order to block those people's mouths, it's better to take your time.”
Aurelia, keep her mouth open. The princess has no grace at all.
Parola, OLINA, obery, Adrian and others are all stupid.
Listen to victor, it's not enough to give Donne a hereditary count. Do you want to continue to promote him!?
Even if I trust him very much, but this is too exaggerated!?
They didn't know that Victor was actually worried that Donne would refuse!
If he was not worried that too much promotion would be rejected by others, he wanted to promote Donne to the status of hereditary duke or even hereditary prince, and firmly tie the son of God and the Ilus royal family on the same front.
”I have no problem.”
Donne still looked like he didn't care.
So Aurelia was even more angry.
Maybe Victor also noticed that what he did was a little too exaggerated, so he had an idea and explained: ”you may not have noticed how great the credit of count Donne is. The emergence of combine harvester has made the imperial agriculture advance by more than one big step. The great improvement of harvest efficiency can promote the expansion of cultivated area, and the grain yield will be even greater.”
”The increase in grain production not only solved the hunger problem of imperial residents, but also solved the food problem of the army on the other hand, and improved the combat power of the army in a disguised form - this is only the role of combine harvesters, not to mention count Donne's research and development of other agricultural magic machines. I believe they can greatly improve the agricultural production capacity without exception.”
”With the help of count Donne, our Ilus empire will change its decline and rise again.”
Victor didn't finish what he said, but it was obvious that Donne and the magic machine he developed would completely change the weak position of the Ilus empire in prandal, and even restore its dominant position!
