Chapter 2841: Unable to avoid vulgarity, seek common ground while reserving differences

"Of course, considering that the strength of the countries in the North is not equal, adjustments need to be made. However, under the threat of demons, it is relatively easy for the five major countries to reach an agreement."

Then, Xia Duo explained his plan, "The first is to establish a special mining, smelting and distribution department in the name of the Northland Alliance to deal with the newly discovered unowned mithril mine. This will help the accounts to be clear, and all countries will only The net profit after deducting all costs is settled in standard mithril. This is the distribution method.

"As for the specific distribution plan, I think the five major countries can get the same larger share, while the smaller countries can get a smaller share based on factors such as population and strength.

"To avoid major power conflicts as much as possible, getting the same share is the easiest solution to achieve. In addition, as I said before, the 'last choice of the plan' is of course not the last choice among all members of the Northland Alliance, but The last choice among the five major countries should be able to reach a consensus.

"At the same time, we must unite a number of small countries to prevent them from being seduced and used by demons. Profit sharing is inevitable. The newly discovered mithril mine does not exist in any country, but it is located in the Northland Alliance. They should also share it. One serving.

"As for why small countries don't share it equally, I think they have a certain say, but not much, and based on factors such as population and strength, it can also be convenient for us to find out their details.

"So if small countries want to get more shares, they need to submit evidence to the Northern Alliance about factors such as population and strength to support such shares, and then the five major countries will allocate them based on actual conditions."

If the Northland Alliance is really distributed according to Shado's plan in the end, the one who will be hardest hit may be Evereska. Evereska wants to unite small countries to establish an alliance to gain an equal voice with the big powers.

But the reality is that if the five major countries reach an agreement, it is almost difficult to realize Evereska's idea. Of course, it is also difficult for the five major countries to reach an agreement.

All parties have their own interests. For example, Netheril can be said to be the weakest among the five major countries. It barely joins the ranks of major powers. Naturally, it is hoped that an alliance of small countries headed by Evriska will emerge. This can Help each other.

There is also Danzo. In order to avoid being misunderstood by the surface countries that they are interested in the surface, they generally do not interfere in surface affairs. When the Northland Alliance involves surface affairs, Danzo mostly follows the trend or abstains from voting.

If the benefits of the newly discovered unowned mithril mine weren't too great, Danzo probably wouldn't take it seriously. The various mineral veins in the Underdark are richer than those on the surface.

For example, Amarinda's specialty is adamantine, and Danzo is actually the same, but they tend to process adamantine into equipment, weapons, or special tools to increase the added value of adamantine, rather than export raw materials.

Amarinda also exports fine gold products, but most of them export raw materials, and they have to pass through Ascor first, that is, they must first pass through Danzo before they can be exported to the surface.

As for metals such as mithril ore, which are regarded as absolute strategic materials on the surface of the earth, Danzo and Amarinda also produce them, but the reserves are far less than the giant mithril mine discovered in the Gray Peak Mountains this time.

Therefore, Danzo was no exception this time and wanted to benefit indirectly by lobbying other countries to recognize Amarinda's preemptive rights to the Gray Peak Mountains.

And this time, if the distribution is really to be carried out according to Xia Duo's plan, the five major countries that hold the actual distribution power will definitely take advantage of the small countries. But this time it is the joint efforts of the five countries. Even if there is an alliance of small countries, it will not help, let alone Ever. Riska hasn't really established an alliance yet, it just has such a direction to work towards.

Perhaps after this battle, Evereska will no longer have the possibility of establishing an alliance of small countries.

Thinking of this, Shado felt that there was something wrong with this plan. Currently, Netheril was the weakest among the five major countries. Even if it grew, it would be basic growth again, and it might not be able to catch up with the other four countries.

In this case, of course, it is necessary to have more and more balanced forces within the alliance, not only between big countries, but also between small countries.

Thinking of this, Shado added, "As the headquarters of the Northland Alliance, Evereska has shouldered too much and should be given an extra share."

Regarding Xia Duo's improved plan, Iolum did not immediately give an evaluation. Instead, after thinking for a moment, he told Xia Duo, "I personally agree with your plan, but other people in the council may not be so clear. understanding.”

No matter what the considerations are, everyone hopes to get the most and thinks they are qualified to get the one, but blind confidence will bring disaster to everyone.

"Will the teacher attend this meeting?"

"Badigal has invited me. Of course I will go. Besides, I am also the deputy speaker. It is impossible for me to be absent from such an important issue."

"I understand. Then I'll use the reception room at the teacher's side."

"Although it is used, although the Austrian-French Federation is under the Severington Parliament, the general system is still the same as before. Your laboratory, lounge, reception room and general authority here are still retained."

"Then I'll take my leave for now and see you again at the impromptu meeting."

After leaving Iolum's study, Shado found his own lounge, which was next to the reception room. He first contacted the general deacon of the Austrian Law Association to prepare drinks and snacks for the reception, and then asked him one by one where he was. Have Netheril's allies arrived in Severton, and invited them to meet at the Arcane Union.

After some contact, Xia Duo discovered that he actually arrived relatively late. Not to mention the three members of Tianshui Council, most of them stayed in Severington before their own territories were developed.

As for the local councilor Brod, who is close to Chateau, since he usually makes choices with his teacher Iolum, he is still in the territory at the moment. The other person who is not here is Cliff.

As a priest of the Lord of Glory, Cliff does not pursue much worldly interests. He seeks breakthroughs in the fields of magic and faith. Currently, Cliff is studying resurrection.

As for Vader, he had conflicts with Shado in the past, but now they are temporary fellow travelers. The two sides have many common topics in the popularization of magic, and they can share the pressure together in the future.

But there are big differences between the two sides in their attitudes towards ordinary people, even less talented spellcasters; in addition, the two sides also have different understandings of magic itself.

So now the two of them are seeking common ground while reserving differences, and they will maintain such a relationship for a long time in the foreseeable future.
