Chapter 788: The Great Killer at the Bottom of the Cauldron!
“…… Right! That's it, this project is a secret private organization, you know. After all, now our noble God Church and the people of the royal family are in a very unpleasant situation. We can't make a big fuss! If you ask the pastor of the church now, they will definitely not admit it, the low-level ones don't know, and the high-level ones have to keep it a secret. Let's ......."
“…… It is that Beidahu, and now there are several big nobles who want to develop it together with the help of our church. It is quite ripe and can increase the fertile land of more than 5,000 hectares! It's a big project, and the benefits are very high! As long as you're ......."
"Ah...... You said that the 502 Sunshine Project, it was to ensure post-war reconstruction. Let's go ......."
"Yes, yes, at least 20% a month! What the? Don't believe it! Can't you trust me? I've gotten my first transfer. What are you waiting for? Let's ......."
"Yes, if you want to invest your money in operations against the Grey Orcs, that's fine. However, if you deal with the gray-skinned beasts, you will get more military merit! I remember that the second and third children of your family haven't been settled yet, right? It's just the right place to be able to mix up, right, ......."
……
Just three days after Charlotte and the others left, Yard's plan was already in operation.
On how to invest in several big projects under the leadership of the Church of the Noble God......
Specifically, it's a bit complicated, and many people don't know much about it. But it does sound amazing, and the first batch of people who invested soon saw the benefits, which were higher than expected!
This made those small nobles and small landlords who were originally attached to the Church of the God of Nobles begin to flock to it.
For those of the lower nobility, their ecclesiastical relationship with the gods of nobility was more pure, and many of them were based on faith rather than mere interests.
Faith relaxes people's vigilance, and these little aristocrats are very easy to believe this set of arguments.
These people have some spare money on hand, and they are easy to get into the trap, and it is basically difficult to reach the upper echelons of the Church of the Noble God. This is the greatest chance of avoiding the possibility of goofs.
In addition, the benefits at the beginning were indeed very lucrative, and they had no reason to doubt it. One by one, they were tight-lipped, for fear of ruining the great affairs of the noble gods.
Coupled with a twist taken out of context, the speeches of the high priests of those noble gods were once made. It makes people feel that those high pastors do mean this!
Fooling these little nobles and small landlords is simply unwanted. Hurry up and send money, if you don't accept me, I'll play with you!
……
Yard hides in the dark room, under the protection of Eudora, checking the accounts of several rural pilots of the "Northland Noble Self-Rescue Foundation".
This matter involves the Church of God, and it is hard to guarantee that it was exposed that day, and someone tried to find the person behind the scenes. Although Yard's methods are very clever, he has never been directly involved. But the existence of prophecy spells has to be guarded against.
At present, this matter has not developed into Snow City, but has started in the surrounding towns. In order to ensure the initial capital chain, Tialoc also took this first "investment" to operate the products of Amway Group, and the profits were indeed huge.
Sometimes, Yard thinks, why don't we do it for real! You can really make a lot of money in this way!
However, Charlotte also wrote in the plan, this is called "crowdfunding", and what we are going to do is called "pyramid schemes that have no *** to have a son". In order to completely destroy the substructure of the Church of the Noble God. Let the lower nobles and small landowners who support and believe in the god of nobility hate the church of the god of nobility.
Besides, as the plan gets bigger and bigger, with more and more people, the cost of dividends will skyrocket. So much so that no matter how profitable the business is, it will not be able to make ends meet.
Think about it, even if you dig a gold mine, it's not as fast as scamming money! Especially the person with a big ticket to help you cheat!
Those pyramid scheme dens that were smashed found tens of millions of dollars in cash at every turn!
Yard's side is terrified and extremely excited to pit the Church of the Noble God. Charlotte and Andre were also about to reach their destination.
In fact, the distance between Snowy City and Wintercastle is not far in a straight line. But because of the terrain, you can't walk in a straight line at all. That's why it took a three-day delay to reach Wintercastle.
When Charlotte and André entered the city through the south gate, they could still hear shouts of killing on the northern wall. The gray orcs over there have been maintaining a certain intensity of siege.
André, led by the palace guards, went to meet King Rennes. Charlotte, on the other hand, remained in the barracks and waited.
Charlotte was idle, handed a cigar to one of the soldiers standing guard, and chatted with him.
When the soldier saw such an expensive cigar, he was three points shorter. In addition, the military rank that Charloton bought was also much higher than him, which was very polite and answered all questions.
"Friend, do those gray-skinned brutes make such a fuss every day?" Charlotte asked casually.
The soldier didn't bother to light the cigar and smoke it himself, but just put the cigar under his nose and sniffed it vigorously. When he heard Charlotte's question, he hurriedly replied, "Isn't it! The group of gray pigs didn't know what to think, and they didn't attack with all their might, but they would attack the city for two hours on time every day. If it drags on like this for a few more days, it's going to snow! They're going to go back to the wasteland and eat! ”
…… If it drags on like this, I don't know who has consumed whom?
Charlotte nodded and didn't speak again.
This Wintercastle was just a small castle more than 100 years ago, before the unsmiling Oliver IV moved its capital.
At that time, the capital was in the hinterland, and the defense of this gateway was not as strong as it is now. So much so that it has to be attacked by the gray orcs every few years.
In the end, the impatient Oliver IV simply moved the capital to the city of **, and gave the order to start building Wintercastle.
It took 40 years to complete the construction of the Winter Castle. By that time Oliver IV had already died. It was his son-in-law, Anderson I, who was on the throne at that time.
In the sixty or seventy years since, Wintercastle has not been breached by the Grey Orcs.
Wintercastle sits across a gap in the mountains, in an irregular rectangle, filling the gap. The entire Wintercastle became part of the mountain range.
Because there is no way to bypass, but can only choose to attack head-on, this has become a dangerous place where no one can open it.
The Winter Castle was a military fortress in its entirety, and there weren't many civilians in the entire city. Most of them are descendants of military families, or artisans and the like.
There are not many places in the vicinity where food can be grown, and it all depends on transportation from the mainland.
But because it is so pure, it is also extremely powerful.
The fortress was built with huge bricks and boulders everywhere, so much so that Charlotte, who first came to Wintercastle, felt a little oppressive.
The fortress is like an immovable mountain, protecting the people of Nonawe from the Grey Orcs.
However, strong fortresses were broken from within.
Now that the initial purpose of the Great Chief of the Grey Orcs has been achieved, he is waiting for King Wren to hold on!
……
Led by the guards, André arrived at the makeshift dormitory in Wintercastle.
The guards brought her to the head of the palace. Andre found that the old manager, who had always been in good spirits, was much older.
Her heart suddenly felt a little depressed.
"Her Royal Highness Princess......" After the guards retreated, the old steward saluted Andre. Andrei hurriedly helped him up and asked, "Chief Nord, where is my father?" I don't know why I was called all of a sudden? ”
The old steward was silent for a moment, and said, "Please come with me, Your Highness, and pushed open the door behind him, leading Andre into the house." ”
After passing through several rooms, they came to a huge bedroom.
Andrei suddenly smelled a very strong herbal smell and a faint foul smell.
