Chapter 146: Bilbo
Chapter 147
"Sir, here we are."
In front of the Nova Base in the center of the city, a state-of-the-art magic guide car full of exquisite luxury was parked at the door, and an old butler in a tuxedo got down from the driver's seat, took the initiative to open the back door of the car, and bowed to speak.
"Hmm."
There was a somewhat lazy voice in the car.
Then a man dressed in a priceless costume stepped out of the car.
He was a businessman in Carado.
His name is Bilbo.
When Carado was about to fall, he became one of the few people who could quietly leave the city for refuge, because he had almost as much money as the country could match.
Even the Winterling Empire sometimes had to ask the merchant to borrow some monetary resources to subsidize the army, and at the cost of Bilbo gaining some special privileges in the country.
And when Carado was completely safe, he was the first person to choose to come to Carado on his own initiative.
Other merchants and civilians still had an inexplicable fear and worry about Karado during that time, and they would worry that Karado was not yet safe.
Therefore, at that time, after the news that Calado had just spread the news that it was safe, Bilbo was very bold to come back as soon as possible.
And the reason why he came back was very simple, that is, he found a business opportunity.
The discovery of this business opportunity is also a coincidence.
He had been to the Kingdom of Winter Hill about a few months ago.
With Bilbo's commercial status, even if he was a merchant with considerable influence in many countries in the south that were stronger than the two countries of Winter Mountain and Winter Spirit combined, the regent of Alberta would not dare to make things difficult for Bilbo because he was dissatisfied with helping the Winter Spirit Empire.
Even Alberta wants to see if he can make some money from Bilbo, but the two have not negotiated a deal, and Alberta will not easily give too many privileges to a businessman, which is another story.
Bilbo came to the Winter Mountain Kingdom because he used his own special channels to learn that the Winter Mountain Kingdom suddenly began to use a large number of people to devote himself to the mining work, Bilbo keenly smelled the business opportunities, and planned to try his luck in the Winter Mountain Kingdom to see if he could make a fortune from it, and use these materials to collect cheap grain, and then sell them to those more generous countries in the south.
However, what Bilbo didn't expect was that the regent didn't choose to sell those mining magic crystals or other metal raw materials cheaply, even when the country was still a little uncovered.
Alberta said at the time, and that was that I wouldn't do anything about selling raw materials to overdraft the country.
This surprised Bilbo, according to what he knew about the regent in the past, although he was smart enough, long-term planning has never been a strong point, and short-term operations were okay, but now Alberta can say this kind of long-term vision, which is a bit different from him.
A shrewd businessman can always detect something wrong in the subtleties.
So he began to investigate other things about what happened in the Kingdom of Winter Mountain during this time.
Then he discovered the existence of Zhang Youxing.
In fact, Zhang Youxing's existence was also known to him very early.
But at that time, he just thought that this was a powerful man who might be able to change the situation of the war between the two countries, but it had nothing to do with his own business, so he didn't pay attention.
However, this investigation he found that this stranger was quite unusual.
He created a new kind of ...... in the Kingdom of Winter Mountain Caricature?
As if to call this term, this thing soon arose in the aristocratic circles of the Winter Mountain Kingdom, and then gradually spread to the common class.
The speed at which this thing spreads is terrifying.
In the past, he also sold biographies and other types of literature.
However, those things are really obscure to ordinary people, and the response is very low within the scope of ordinary people.
However, the cartoons created by this stranger were popular with both nobles and commoners.
At that moment, he sensed the business opportunity.
Then he set his mind to get in touch with the stranger.
It's just that he hasn't had much of a chance in the past.
The main thing is that Alberta is very vigilant and hardly gives Bilbo a chance to contact Zhang Youxing, he is actually a little afraid that this businessman will fool the people who have brought great changes to the Kingdom of Winter Mountain.
The businessman's mouth is quite sharp.
So when Zhang Youxing was still in the Kingdom of Winter Mountain, Bilbo didn't come into contact with Zhang Youxing.
However, when Bilbo learned that this stranger had come to Calado, he came to Calado almost immediately and found Zhang Youxing.
Today is the moment when he made an appointment with Zhang Youxing to discuss.
"You can wait for me here, I'll go up myself." Bilbo glanced at the buildings in front of him, which seemed quite out of place with the whole city, and said without looking back.
"I see." The butler-looking man bowed to Bilbo.
Bilbo then walked into Nova Headquarters, whose doors had slowly opened.
"Is this kind of building called a mansion?" Bilbo constantly looked at the building, and his eyes often flashed with the light of a hillbilly, and Bilbo, a well-informed businessman, had to admit that this building did make him feel extremely shocked and novel.
After a period of construction, and with the help of magical powers, the current Nova Headquarters has become the tallest building in Calado, and the mage towers that used to be seventy or eighty meters high have been compared to this building, which makes people wonder how this kind of building was built.
However, Bilbo is a big businessman after all, and he quickly sorted out his mood and hid all the possibilities that he might expose his weaknesses to the depths of his heart.
Today, he is planning to negotiate a big deal, but he must not look too weak, otherwise it will be detrimental to the next negotiations.
He could clearly feel through his senses that he was now being targeted.
He is a powerful sixth-level great magician, and it is not easy for a businessman to have this kind of strength, which is also a level that most magicians may not be able to reach in their lifetime.
But even if he had this kind of combat power, the gaze that had been observing him made him feel nervous and a little ...... Fear.
There are powerful people hidden here, and not just one.
He quickly adjusted his mind, and then walked into the hall with his chest straight.
"Welcome to the light...... Hey? You look so rich. ”
In the center of the hall, there is a sign for the front desk, and in the front desk is a girl with a pigeon on her head that has been cooing.
The girl looked at Bilbo, who was dressed in gold and silver, and her eyes were very curious.
"Don't you think these things are too heavy? If I wore it for a few minutes, I would definitely be tired to death, and it would be better to wear a mage robe. ”
