It wasn't that Archduke Buck's conditions were too harsh, but that they were too generous.

According to their original expectations, being able to win two of the three items was already the limit.

The easiest thing to get is the preferential trade rights with the Kingsley family, and the hardest thing to get is the right to free entry and exit of the Danube River.

Because once the Kingsley family completely takes over the Swamp of Despair, the Donau River will become the hinterland of the Kingsley family.

I didn't expect Grand Duke Buck to be so grand. He threw everything away with a wave of his hand.

As for the land in the Swamp of Despair, it's not like the Commons family doesn't keep a close eye on it.

But they know that the Kingsley family will never give in on this, and it is extremely difficult for them to develop it. Going across the ocean these days is an extremely dangerous thing in itself. Carrying people across large oceans has a higher risk factor than reaching the destination.

In the end, if half of the people survive, it will be a great blessing.

The greatest threat is not the changeable weather on the endless sea, but scurvy caused by nutritional imbalance.

They can only settle for the next best thing and make a fuss about the maritime field where they are best at first.

Shi Dubin laughed and gave a thumbs up: "I have long heard of His Majesty's generous skills. When I saw it today, it was indeed well-deserved. Just because of this, how dare you refuse to serve? But before that, shall we sign the contract first?

.”

"It has been prepared for a long time. I would like to ask the general to take a look at it." Archduke Buck waved his hand, and someone brought up two simple-looking parchment scrolls.

After unfolding, it is more than two meters long.

The three rights are simple to say, but they involve many things and naturally cannot be described clearly in one or two sentences.

It can also be seen from here that Archduke Buck did not throw out these three rights impulsively, but after careful consideration.

You want the horse to run, but you don't want the horse to eat grass.

There is no such good thing in the world.

If you want to mobilize Steubin's enthusiasm for war, you must let him see enough temptation.

"Then I'm not welcome." Shi Dubin waved his hand, and two people who could be seen as well-educated people came up immediately.

Lying on two parchment scrolls, he chewed out the meaning of each sentence.

Of course, such a far-reaching contract requires repeated consideration. Who knows if there are any literal traps in it.

This is a common tactic among lords and nobles and must be guarded against.

"Please." Archduke Buck was not surprised. No agreement was signed at once. Even if the conditions he offered were generous enough, both parties still needed to argue over words in order to maximize their own interests.

What's more, Archduke Buck was also confident and did not do anything with the writing.

The most important thing is to sign an agreement with the Commons family as soon as possible and capture the Swamp of Despair.

It is the most stupid thing to lose the whole piece of cake just because you have not eaten the meat in your mouth.

Rao is so.

It still took nearly a week to sign the offensive and defensive alliance agreement.

Professionals from both sides were at loggerheads in this regard, line by line, word by word.
