Chapter 1241 The Regretful Brother-in-Law

Schools in the cities of Illus are finally on holiday, and the children are all running around like crazy. If they hadn't spent such a long time studying in school, they probably still wouldn't understand how free they used to be. Precious time.

But when they grow up in the future, I'm afraid they will miss their school days - because running around and working hard every day for a living is more painful.

Tang En also fulfilled his agreement with Ilia and took her out to relax. However, it was originally an outing with children, but in the end it turned into a group outing for a large group of people, including Fiona and Aurelie. After Ya knew about it, he also dropped what he was doing and ran over to join in the fun, planning to take a vacation for himself.

"So, if you are going on vacation, why not just use the teleportation array to go there instead of taking the airship..."

Tang En looked at Elijah and Vinette running around on the deck, his face full of helplessness.

You read that right, it’s Vinette running around. After these few months of growth, Vinette has transformed from a little baby who was just learning to talk to a girl who can walk, run and call daddy. She is now a little girl. Her mind has grown to about five or six years old, and her body has also grown rapidly. At first, Ilia could still hold her, but now she has grown so fast that she is almost touching Ilia's chin. , and it looks almost the same every day, and the growth looks very gratifying.

Others were happy, but Ilia was not so happy. Ever since she had such a little baby, she almost regarded herself as a real mother. She would go home directly after class every day, doing homework and taking care of the child at the same time. Although it was hard work, she felt extremely accomplished.

But now...seeing that his daughter is almost catching up with him, how can this be done? Illya is so worried...

"Vinette! Don't run around! It's very dangerous here!"

Ilia followed closely behind Vinette. The lively and cute little girl was going on a long trip for the first time. She was very excited and was completely unwilling to stay where she was. This made Ilia miserable.

Ilia was so worried. Looking at her restless "daughter", she suddenly felt very tired and sighed in an old-fashioned way: "Oh, the child is growing up so fast, I feel like I am old..."

Fiona, Alleria, Olena: "..."

You stinky girl who is not yet fifteen years old says you are old, so what do we in our twenties and thirties mean! ? An immortal with half of his body already buried in the ground?

Illya had no idea that her unintentional words had irritated a group of people around her, so she only focused on chasing Vinette.

Fiona: "I suddenly feel so old..."

Alleria: "Me too..."

Olena: "You guys chat, I'm leaving first..."

Grandia sneered: "Stupid humans, now you know the excellence of our elves...we are the real gods - whoops, who hit me!?"

Narhaksha laughed wildly and said: "Little girl, don't be too arrogant. When it comes to youth and longevity, we are the best."

Ye Ye OvO: "Aging? What is that? It doesn't exist!"

Justina smiled: "The soul is immortal, and the life is immortal."

Otiniya, who was reading a book, raised her head and glanced at them, then silently withdrew her gaze - I didn't say anything, I just watched you pretending to be cool.

The airship was a mess and noisy. Fortunately, this airship was temporarily transferred by Tang En and there were no other passengers. Otherwise, everyone would probably go crazy.

"When you stand here and take a look, the scenery is actually pretty good."

Fiona leaned against the railing and looked at the earth below. The feeling of looking down at the earth from the sky through the clouds was completely different from usual. Looking at the clouds in the distance, it seemed that her whole mind was as broad as the blue sky. The depression in my heart was swept away, and my whole face was radiant.

"Yeah, I'm almost going crazy after staying in the palace and dealing with all kinds of things."

Alleria glanced at Tang En, who was looking sad in the distance, and said angrily: "I have never seen such an irresponsible king like him... Which king will leave everything to the princess? And then you run around every day without being seen?"

Fiona was speechless, because what Alleria said was true. Looking at so many kings in history, there really was no one as cool and unrestrained as Tang En. He didn't even stay in the palace every night and changed places every day. sleep.

Fiona nodded: "Yes...it's quite hard..."

"Right, right?"

Alleria said with a grimace: "I am also a young and lovely girl. I also want to have my own leisurely vacation! I also want to put on a skirt and go shopping to enjoy life! Now I lie in the study every day I help him handle government affairs here, and I feel like I’m almost reaching middle age early!”

Fiona thought that this seemed to be a good opportunity to get closer to Alleria, so she deliberately said with a grimace: "Me too..."

Alleria nodded. She felt the same way. The Tang Dynasty Chamber of Commerce has developed into a behemoth. Every day things are piling up. Various personnel movements, capital changes, market guidance, etc. all require Feiou. Na will handle it, and her task is no easier than his own.

The two beautiful girls with tears in their eyes looked at each other, and the mild defensiveness and hostility in the past seemed to have suddenly disappeared. There was a feeling of regret for meeting each other late. The two people faced each other and complained bitterly. Tang En, this unscrupulous boss, has the attitude of "I'll quit if I don't get a raise in salary and better treatment."

If Alleria was a very ambitious princess, maybe she would be very happy with the treatment she is receiving now, but she has never been a person who can endure her temper-otherwise she would not have become Serna's apprentice. A famous female snitch.

After the two chatted for a while, Fiona pretended to ask accidentally: "Speaking of which, our Illus has established a free trade zone with Ronitant, right? We have been sending some hot-selling products there recently. , The market response from Ronitant is pretty good, but I don’t know what Ronitant’s official attitude is. Do you have any news here?”

Alleria sighed and said: "What else can there be? They have regretted it now, but it is too late. They can only admit it with their noses pinched."

The establishment of bilateral free trade was originally an idea proposed by Ronitant in order to fight against the Tang En Chamber of Commerce, but Oscar did not expect that Tang En would in turn recruit him and go a step further to directly establish a zero-tariff free trade zone.

This is great, the businessmen are excited, crazy and happy!

That’s zero tariff! The cost price of purchasing the product is too low, who wouldn’t be excited?

But Oscar was troubled and confused - because of the emergence of the free trade zone, a large number of Illus Empire goods easily flowed into Ronitant, and due to the zero-tariff policy, the selling prices of these goods were higher than The high prices at the beginning were too low, and the competition was extremely strong. Many locally produced goods could no longer be sold - because the prices were similar, people were more willing to buy the products of the Datang Chamber of Commerce.

This is not only because the prices of Datang Chamber of Commerce products have dropped, but also because Datang Chamber of Commerce products often have more exquisite appearance designs, more excellent and considerate new functions, and more complete product follow-up guarantees...

The most important thing is that the brand of the Datang Chamber of Commerce is more resounding. There has been a craze in the Illus Empire to pursue the Datang Chamber of Commerce. Ronitant is not immune to this. Using the products of the Datang Chamber of Commerce will make them look bad. bright.

These are things that the chambers of commerce in Ronitante cannot provide to users.

After discovering this change, Oscar felt regretful. He had developed the market for nearly a hundred years, accumulated wealth for nearly a hundred years, and then flowed into the Illrus Empire little by little. Those century-old chambers of commerce were like this. In this storm of change, every house closed down and many people lost their jobs at home, which brought a serious financial burden to Ronitant's economic development.

For the first time in the past century, Ronitante's economic growth rate has slowed down or even stagnated. For the Ronitant government, which regards economic development as the life of the country, it is like the end of the world...

Without the protection of tariffs, under the impact of Datang Chamber of Commerce products, it is too difficult for domestic independent brands to develop and reoccupy the market. This is not only a brand gap, but also a technological crush. Many products Even if the market is opened up for them to compete, they won’t be able to produce it themselves!

Alleria's expression was very strange: "I'm afraid it's hard for my uncle to sleep well these days... After all, everything is developing as planned by Tang En... I'm afraid it won't be long. , Ronitante's market economy will be completely controlled by you, and Ronitante's government will basically become a shell government..."

Fiona nodded meaningfully: "Yes, military and economy are the two most important lifebloods of a country's government. Ronitant's military strength has long since been eliminated, so he will work hard to develop the economy. Now the economy is on the verge of collapse due to our impact... Alleria, how long do you think they will persist before surrendering?"

"Surrender? You mean return."

Alleria frowned slightly: "It's hard to say. I don't know my uncle well. I don't know what kind of person he is. But as a king, I guess he won't be so easy to give in. Maybe he thinks If you persist for a while and then come back, it might be easier to get a better position?"

"..."

Fiona is too lazy to complain. You two, mother and daughter, are now in the first rank of Illrus. As your uncle, if he really comes back on his own initiative, can Tang En still treat him badly?

Don’t deliberately play this hard-to-get game and end up trapping yourself in the end...

Twain's mission is so heavy, he may not necessarily have the patience to play this kind of game with them all the time. If Oscar makes Twain lose his patience, the good treatment waiting for him may not be good.
