Collie couldn't help sneering in his heart, he was really familiar with this set of kind words, he wouldn't take it seriously at all, he didn't want to waste too much time here, and said lightly: "Battalion Commander von Bock, how much do you want if I want to buy this winery?" ”

"This ......" von Bock deliberately turned his head to look at his brother-in-law, and pretended not to understand the business and said, "Jon, how much does your winery sell for?" ”

Jon glanced at von Bock's eyes and knew what he meant, so he cleared his throat, deliberately raised the price upward, and said lightly: "One hundred thousand silver dollars." ”

Grass, this money brother can't get out. Clifford pursed his lips and said with some dissatisfaction: "Mr. Jon, as far as I know, this distillery of yours has been out of production for a long time, and for such a distillery, you sell 100,000 silver dollars, isn't it a bit too much." ”

"Not much, Earl Clifford." Jon stood there and shook his head firmly, looking very respectful, but his tone was very resolute: "Earl Clifford, the equipment in me is all up to date, and the reason why it has been discontinued for a long time is because I want to do something else, and this is for your sake of your face It costs 100,000 silver dollars, if it is someone else, then I will definitely not sell it at this price." ”

"Huh." Clifford stood up and left, glanced at Von Bock and Jon, and said lightly: "Okay, I hope you can sell it for a good price, let's go." Then he got up and walked back.

"Brother Clifford." Seeing this, Von Bock immediately stopped him, smiled a flower on his face, and said kindly: "Anything can be discussed." If it's someone else, the price is really not high, but if it's Brother Clifford, I'll sell it to you at a loss. "Von Bock is a very politically ambitious person, he has been a bandit over the years, accumulated a lot of wealth, and later after defecting, he led the team to kill several bandit dens one after another, and took all the money in it as his own, to be honest, he is not bad for money.

However, he was not satisfied with the position of a small battalion commander, he wanted a higher position, more power, and preferably like Governor Taylor, who could sit on one side, so he spent a lot of money for the transportation up and down, and to make some connections.

However, having said that, there are unforeseen circumstances, he just fed the previous officials, the court ordered down, the three counties in the north were restructured and became the governor-general, the previous generals were useless, and the new Governor Taylor was a big official in the royal capital, he didn't know him before, Taylor still used him, it was because he still had a thousand people in his hands, but he and Taylor have not had a personal relationship so far, only a relationship between superiors and subordinates, which made him very uneasy, in case he was robbed by others, Wouldn't that be worth the loss? He wants to give gifts, to stammer, and someone has to take him with him, he is not familiar with people, how can he be reckless to give gifts? So, he set his sights on Taylor's henchman, Cliffor.

Long before Taylor came here, he inquired about Taylor and the people around him, knowing that this Cliffordford is not simple, he is Taylor's most proud disciple, and he is also his most proud mastermind, and there are even rumors that Taylor can get the position of Governor of the North, which is planned by Cliffor, if he can take the line of Cliffor, then Governor Taylor's place, won't the traffic be good?

Coupled with Coolford's outstanding performance in suppressing bandits in Dolai County this time, Von Bock thought that this was a person who could succeed, so he wanted to associate with him even more, originally he was still thinking about how to get in touch with Coolford, but he didn't expect him to come over to buy a winery, can he let go of this God-given opportunity? If he is spared, it will not be von Bock.

"Battalion Commander von Bock is really joking, how can I make you lose money." Collie Fu stopped, turned around, looked at von Bock, and said with a slight smile: "Besides, I really think that this distillery of yours is not worth 100,000 silver dollars, let's see you another day." He didn't want to owe von Bock a favor, not to mention that he knew in his heart that von Bock was eager to befriend Taylor at this time, just like a cat called Chun, so he would slap him to death, and now get along with him, you don't have to put your posture so low.

Sure enough, when Von Bock saw that Coolford was very shrewd and refused to drill his trap, he sighed, took Coolford's hand, and smiled faintly: "Come, brother." Don't get excited, buying and selling is not benevolent, let's talk about it again. In this way, I am very close to my brother, and when I see it, I will sell you 50,000 silver dollars at a 50% discount from this distillery, and I will make you a friend, how about it? ”

50,000 silver dollars, which is already a very cheap price, it is not good for Clifford to lower the price, otherwise after it spreads, people will say that he is black-hearted behind his back, saying that he does not care about the righteousness of his friends, if this reputation spreads, who is willing to work with him, and his development in the three northern counties will be difficult in the future, showing a very happy look, grasping Feng Bock's hands, and said happily: "Battalion commander von Bock, is this true?" ”

"Of course, I don't dare to guarantee anything else, if I say it, it will definitely be a spit, a nail, and I will never regret it, if you don't believe it, we will sign a contract now." Von Bock patted his chest and said with a proud expression on his humble figure.

"Don't worry, brother." People's hearts are long, although Colifmin knew that he was doing this to please himself, and then approached Taylor, but the other party gave him such a big discount at once, which still moved him, but moved to be moved, and the practical problem should also be considered, he now has a total of more than 60,000 silver dollars in his hand, of which 30,000 were just given by Joseph, and the other more than 30,000 are his personal property that he has saved over the years.

I have to say that Clifford's father is still very good to him, afraid that his son will be wronged in the king, and gives him a large amount of money every year.

The more than 60,000 silver dollars are all his belongings, so naturally he can't give more than half of them to Feng Boke at once, so he said with a sad face: "Brother, I still have a reluctant request." ”

"Say." Feng Bock saw that Clifford was moved by him, so he wanted to strike while the iron was hot and completely open up this relationship, patted his chest, and said proudly: "As long as my brother can do it, there is absolutely no second word." ”

"That ......" Clifford scratched his head with a little embarrassment, and said: "To be honest, I don't have so much cash in my hand, can I pay half of the 50,000 silver dollars first, and the rest of the money will be paid slowly when the factory is put into operation, I will earn money." ”
