In the early morning of May 1st, Bai Feng, who returned to the White Mansion from Rome City, immediately asked the Flame Sword Saints Bai Yi and Bai Er to secretly escort fifteen geisha to Tianyu Tower, which will support the development of the entire Sorrowful Song Dead Organization for a long time in the future.
In order to avoid exposing his relationship with Tianyu Lou as much as possible, Bai Feng not only did not have any direct contact with Tianyu Lou, but also asked Yue'er and Binglan to temporarily put aside the management of Tianyu Lou, and all the affairs of Tianyu Lou were handed over by Bai Feng to the geisha to deal with.
Geisha with an experience level of up to level 4 have the same actual combat power as the Empire's high-level swordsmen, but their strong combat power is only one of their strengths, and their good intelligence is the decisive factor for their survival and development.
Thirty charismatic and intelligent geisha, the Tianyu Building they run has become the absolute core of the tragic and dead, no matter how powerful the man is, he still can't resist the temptation of a woman after all, which is why Bai Feng founded Tianyu Tower.
Bai Feng was a diamond VIP of the Westminster Chamber of Commerce, and he asked the Westminster Chamber of Commerce to help purchase orc slaves, which was regarded as a major event by the Westminster Chamber of Commerce, and after more than two months of acquisition, Ron personally sent someone to the White Mansion.
One hundred and eighty kobolds, one hundred and twenty wolf-headed men, fifty minotaurs, and three hundred monkey-headed men, a total of six hundred and fifty orc slaves was not a small amount, and it would take at least a thousand elite warriors to control these rampaging orc warriors.
Although the Westminster Chamber of Commerce is the most powerful chamber of commerce in the empire, their strength in the imperial capital cannot be too strong, otherwise, the magnates of the imperial capital who are extremely desperate for their lives will have to consider their own safety.
Therefore, the existence of six hundred and fifty orc slaves occupies most of the Westminster Chamber of Commerce's escort force in the imperial capital, which is more than worth the loss for the Westminster Chamber of Commerce, and they must let Bai Feng take these orc slaves away as soon as possible.
Bai Feng, who had long intended to expand the size of the beast team, took Hans to the slave market of the Westminster Chamber of Commerce without the slightest delay after receiving the news from the Westminster Chamber of Commerce;
At this time, Ron, who was full of smiles, also walked over, so Bai Feng pointed to the slaves in front of him and asked Ron: "Your Excellency Ron, these slaves don't look like ordinary slaves, they are prisoners of war that your Chamber of Commerce got from the Imperial Military, right?"
"Your Excellency Bai Feng, you really have a wise eye!" Ron explained without concealment: "These slaves are prisoners of war of the steppe tribes captured by the imperial military on the northern battlefield, and they were purchased by our Chamber of Commerce at a high price, and they are going to be auctioned in the imperial capital. ”
"The prisoners of the Imperial Military should logically be handed over to the Imperial Military Department, in this case, your Chamber of Commerce must have paid a lot of price to obtain these prisoners of war that will cause a new round of pursuit by the powerful of the Imperial Capital, right?"
"Your Excellency Bai Feng said with a smile, these prisoners of war will not cause a new round of craze in the imperial capital under any circumstances, because your Fusang treasures are the most eagerly sought after by the magnates of the imperial capital, and as for the price of obtaining these prisoners of war, I am afraid it will be lower than you imagined. ”
"It's lower than I imagined?" Bai Feng, who was slightly puzzled, understood what Ron meant after a little thought, with the current financial situation of the empire, the high military expenditure of fighting on two fronts has overwhelmed the empire, and selling prisoners of war is the best way to feed the war with war.
The barren orc empire and the resource-poor steppe tribes could not provide much plundering income for the frontier army of the Celestial Dragon Empire, and the army of the Celestial Dragon Empire was on the defensive, so this kind of war plunder income did not exist.
Under such circumstances, the bigwigs of the Imperial military must strive for as many other interests as possible for the Imperial army in the frontier area, otherwise, the soldiers of the Empire will not shed their blood on the battlefield, after all, the Empire's military salary is really not high.
The Imperial Frontier Army sold all the orc warriors and steppe warriors captured on the battlefield to the Westminster Chamber of Commerce for profit, which was not only an illegal transaction that did not comply with the Imperial military regulations, but also a gray transaction tacitly approved by the Imperial military top brass and the imperial capital's magnates.
Bai Feng, who was interested in expanding the size of the Baifu Guard, but because he did not have a suitable source of soldiers, was very interested in these prisoners of war in front of him; Ron, who was extremely good at observing words and feelings, naturally it was not difficult to see Bai Feng's intentions, and then he took the initiative to ask Bai Feng if he was interested in buying these prisoners of war.
Buying more than 3,000 grassland tribe prisoners of war and 650 orc slaves with three million gold coins was much more expensive than the previous price, but Bai Feng, who had deep pockets, didn't care about the three million gold coins, and the deal was completed in less than three minutes.
All the prairie tribe prisoners of war and orc slaves will be sent directly to the Baifu Manor outside the city by the guards of the Westminster Chamber of Commerce later, and what Bai Feng needs to do now is to go to the military headquarters of the imperial capital to report the expansion of the Baifu guard.
The special status of the imperial capital determines that Bai Feng cannot arbitrarily expand the scale of the Baifu guards, even if the Bai family is a new imperial wealthy family with three dukes, it is still necessary to be cautious when it comes to this kind of issue; only after the approval of the military department, Bai Feng can logically expand the Baifu guards.
Of course, the expanded Baifu Guard can no longer use the name of the Bai family's guards, and the elite soldiers of nearly 5,000 people must be explained in the name of the Duke's Guard; anyway, the Bai Family has three dukes, and it can just be used in the name of this Duke's Guard.
Considering that the Bai family's relationship in the imperial capital was not extensive, Bai Feng deliberately found the Eighth Prince, who had not been in contact with him for a long time, and in the face of Bai Feng, who took the initiative to ask for help, the Eighth Prince, who had already formally formed an alliance with the Bai family, naturally would not refuse Bai Feng's request.
With the personal appearance of the Eighth Prince, the officials of the Military Department approved Bai Feng's application very well; although the boss of the Military Department, Duke Cullen, is the maternal grandfather of the Great Prince, this does not mean that the ordinary officials of the Military Department dare to disobey the will of the Eighth Prince, this is the power of the imperial power!
When registering the number of the Duke of Bai's guard, Bai Feng, who had not thought about this problem, casually took the name of an iron guard, and the commander of the iron guard was Hans, who was originally in the White Mansion, and he was a system general, more suitable for being the commander than Maxi and Darnell.
After dealing with the affairs of the military department, Bai Feng took Hans to bid farewell to the Eighth Prince and went straight to the Baifu Manor outside the city; the five thousand iron-clad guards were handed over to Hans by Bai Feng, and Maxi and Darnell were newly transferred back to Bai Feng's side.
The orc slaves who needed to be guarded by a large number of elite warriors turned from irascible beasts to obedient kittens after seeing the beast sword saint Douglas, and the size of the beast warband expanded to a thousand people, with Thales still in command.
The expansion of the Iron Guards and the Beast Clan is only the first step for Bai Feng to enhance the Bai family's strength in the imperial capital; if the Bai family wants to truly become the top magnate in the empire, rather than the top magnate in the south, the Bai family still has a long way to go!
The first premise of gaining a foothold in the imperial capital is to gain a firm foothold in the imperial capital, and the friendship between the eighth prince and the Bai family is based on the mutual use of both sides; in comparison, Bai Feng himself still trusts the seventh princess Diana more, at least the latter is more emotional than the former.
In the following days, Bai Feng, who was busy with various affairs, deliberately took a few days to eat, drink and have fun with the girls in the family, in addition to Bai Rou, Bai Han, Bai Ling'er and Yue'er, Binglan, Ophelia, Ophelisa, Diana and Sophia.
