Zedran was initially puzzled as to why this seasoned tactician would risk visiting him. As he pondered the turbulent situation in Montiria, Zedran began to grasp the purpose behind the visit.
"Having millions in hand is not as good as having a soldier at your command. Financial power ultimately can't compare to military power. Someone like you, Zedran, who commands hundreds of thousands of troops, is a true hero."
Kainne smiled knowingly as he raised his cup toward Zedran, the implication clear.
In peaceful times, his position controlling the economy would naturally be high and revered. However, the calm in Montiria was a mere facade. If turmoil were to erupt, Kainne's position would be extremely precarious.
Both seasoned strategists understood this silently. Although Zedran was aware of the situation, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"Lord, your words hit hard. I'm simply assisting with management. If someone isn't pleased, I'm just another person."
As long as King Gawain I was alive, Zedran had no real power. No matter how lofty his position, he was merely a pawn, his fate hanging by a thread.
"We're all the same. We're just high-level workers."
"Of course, if that day ever comes, Zedran, don't forget about your brother-in-law."
This was Kainne's real agenda. Compared to political ambitions and the 7.5 million, this was child's play. Zedran agreed without hesitation.
"We're family. Helping each other is natural."
They raised their cups, substituting tea for wine, and reached a mutual agreement. One needed money and the other needed troops. Their cooperation was a win-win situation.
"Well, it's getting late. I should head back."
Kainne stood up to leave.
