Chapter 560 A new deal

I just gave a nod for him to continue.

Seeing this, the fourth prince said, "As you know, the key to creating a good army is good equipment. You should also know that our kingdom has struggled with this during this time, so our equipment can\'t be considered the best."

I gave another nod since this was something that I had heard before from Scar and Shaka.

The fourth prince let out a smile when he saw me nod again before saying, "Our chances in this war aren\'t good since there are four different kingdoms that are targeting us this time. The armies of all four of these kingdoms have the same level of equipment as us, but they have far more troops than we do. So if we were to fight them head on, there is no doubt that we would lose eventually."

I could already guess what he was implying, so I simply said, "You want me to provide you with equipment?"

The fourth prince revealed a relieved look when he heard this.

He had been beating around the bush for a reason since it was awkward for him to be direct about this.

But since Zwein had said it for him, there was no reason for him to hold back anymore.

"Yes." He turned to look out the window before saying, "You have all of these dwarves here and all the ores that you\'ve been transporting, so this is the best place to obtain equipment right now."

I gave a nod since I knew that he was right, but it wasn\'t as if I was about to offer the equipment that they needed to the kingdom for free.

Even if I wanted to, the kingdom would never take it for free since it meant owing me a favour that they would find very awkward.

So I turned to Nicole and said, "Can you call Haley here?"

Nicole was surprised to hear this, but she quickly gave a nod and ran off.

The fourth prince raised a brow when he heard this, but he didn\'t say anything as he drank his tea and waited for the person that I called to come.

In less than ten minutes, Haley came into the room.

She was naturally surprised to see the fourth prince, but she came over to my side and sat down before asking, "What\'s wrong?"

I didn\'t answer this question and instead turned to the fourth prince to say, "Brother, you can continue with what you were saying earlier. Just tell me how much you need and we\'ll figure out a price."

Haley quickly revealed a look of understanding when she heard this and then she turned to look at the fourth prince.

The fourth prince couldn\'t help looking at Haley with an appreciative look when he saw how quickly she changed. Then he gave a cough and told them how much equipment that they needed.

Haley slightly knitted her brows when she heard this.

Seeing this, I asked, "Is something wrong?"

Haley shook her head before also giving a nod and saying, "Yes and no. It\'s not as if we can\'t produce these things, it\'s just a matter of time. I need an accurate time frame to see if it is possible to do it in time."

I gave a nod to show that I understood before turning to look at the fourth prince.

The fourth prince didn\'t answer right away as he lowered his head to think.

I could hear that he was muttering to himself as he said, "Taking into account how long it will take the kingdoms to prepare, it should take…"

"Four weeks. That\'s as long as we can wait." The fourth prince suddenly looked up and said this.

This time, it was Haley\'s turn to look down and think about this.

After a while, she looked up and shook her head to say, "It\'s impossible."

The fourth prince was surprised to hear this, but he also quickly knitted his brows and asked, "Why?"

Haley looked at me and said, "We still have other orders that we have to fulfil, so we can\'t focus completely on this one order."

The fourth prince revealed an incredulous look when he heard this.

He looked at Haley almost as if he couldn\'t believe what he was hearing, but then he couldn\'t help breaking out in laughter. While laughing, he also wiped the tears coming from his eyes and said, "I can\'t believe that this is the reason you\'re rejecting this. This really is something else."

I shook my head with a bitter smile and then turned back to look at Nicole.

She was just standing there with an awkward look on her face.

It was clear that while she had brought Haley here, she hadn\'t explained to Haley what the situation was. That was the only reason why Haley would say something like this.

I gave a sigh and turned back to Haley to explain the situation.

She had a surprised look when she heard this, but then she still slowly shook her head and said, "It\'s still impossible. Even if we did delay all the other orders, there just aren\'t enough materials and workers to process this order in time."

Both the fourth prince and I immediately knitted our brows when we heard this.

I knew how Haley did things and if she said that it was impossible, then it would be impossible. She had most likely already considered everything that could be done before saying that it was impossible.

The fourth prince slowly said, "This matter is very important though. If we don\'t have that equipment…"

He didn\'t finish his sentence, but it was very clear what he was implying.

We didn\'t need him to tell us this since we knew how serious this was.

After thinking for a bit, I suddenly thought of something.

"I don\'t know if this will work, but I think that I have an idea." I said in a hesitant voice.

The fourth prince\'s eyes lit up when he heard this and he immediately said, "Brother, what is it?"

Before I could answer, there was someone that suddenly pushed through the door and said.

"My lord, there\'s trouble!"
