Higg looked at the crowd and no one spoke, he couldn't help it, and said: "Charlie, I really didn't expect the money to be spent so quickly, but now our construction can't be listened to, and it will get better slowly, many of the bills you listed are one-time expenses, such as five million for refugees, and when it is normalized in the future, this expenditure will be gone!"

"It's hard to build a city, and it's even harder to fight a war while building a city! Charlie, according to what I said, use the reserves, compress the reserves to five million, you can still have seven million flowers now, you can't stop, and more markets and material warehouses must be built! ”

Charlie said suspiciously: "Now that there are enough material warehouses and markets, do we still need to spend so much money to build so much?" ”

"Build, why not build?" Higg said: "I'll find a way to deal with the funding, but the construction must not stop!" ”

Higg thought for a while, and then said: "Since we don't have enough arable land, I plan to build Fuxing City into a commercial city, Odysbans' caravan will return here in a few months, the materials here will fill all your warehouses, we also need to establish a trading house, transport the materials to all parts of Erathia for sale, and then purchase special goods from all over Erathia, transport them back to Fuxing City, and then Odysbans will transport them from Fuxing City to various countries for sale, such a profit will be very large, and at the same time, the operation of the market, material warehouses and freight systems, It can also help you solve a lot of excess labor! ”

Charlie asked, "Alasia is in a civil war, so I'm afraid it's hard to do business, right?" ”

Higg smiled: "Hehe, the war has a war business to do, and it is precisely because everyone finds it difficult to do that we have to do it, so that we can quickly occupy the market, and after occupying the market, the price of the goods is our final say!" Take your time, you can't rush, but you can't do nothing, before Odysbans comes back, you can send someone to investigate the market, and we will pick out the goods and commodities that are in demand first! ”

"Demons!" Nicole said with a glare.

Higg turned his head to stare at Nicole, not blinking his eyes.

"What are you doing, demon?" Nicole said angrily.

Higg immediately turned into a smile and said, "Your Royal Highness, when will you pay me back the three million gold coins you owe me?" ”

Nicole laughed and said, "So you're still thinking about the three million?" ”

Higg smiled: "Who called me poor, you also saw it, more than half a year, 28 million gone!" I don't want any money, do a business with your alchemy country, exchange all the three million gold coins for the jewelry of your alchemy country, go south with the warship, and the profits will be opened by us, you three and I will seven! ”

Nicole was also very dissatisfied, and said: "Why do I have three and you seven, and if you want to do it, you will divide it into fifty!" ”

Higg said with a smile: "Thirty-seven points are tax-free and free shipping, and fifty-five points are not impossible, then I will have to collect taxes in Fuxing City, and I use my warship, and the freight will also be included in the cost!" ”

Nicole thought for a moment and said angrily, "Higg, you know how to recognize money in your head!" Alright, three seven is thirty-seven, and I will immediately inform my father through the Magic Guild! ”

"Your Royal Highness Princess, don't worry, I'm not done yet!" Higg smiled, "In addition, we in Fuxing City welcome all the materials of your alchemy country to enter and sell them to Alasia at will, you can also turn them into sales through our commercial guild, and I will give you preferential points in taxes, who made us good friends?" ”

"You wicked, your heart is not small!" Nicole nodded, and then smiled: "Yes, I will immediately send someone back to find my father to form a sea caravan, as long as you don't sell me again, you can buy the goods of the alchemy country as you like!" ”

"Hehe, let's not mention it!" Higg laughed, "Doing business with women is trouble!" ”

When Nicole and Blue Fairy heard this, they immediately became angry, one grabbed it with his hand, and the other kicked it at Higg with his foot.

……

The business model of Fuxing City was finalized in this way, Higg originally wanted to build a magic guild, and when the city developed, he even built a council hall or something, but now he has no money to make him very troubled, although he promised Charlie to find him money, but it is not ten eight gold coins, not a million, Higg is too lazy to look at it now.

Although a lot of money has been spent, at least the city has been built on the right track, and the refugees have made this place their home, to be precise, they can no longer be called refugees, but residents.

In the space of a month, Higg and Blue Fairy toured the entire Gordell Hill.

In the suburbs, seeing a village established, a piece of farmland being reclaimed, a piece of mountain forest turned into fruit trees and tea trees, and a pond turned into a fish pond, there is really a feeling that the sea has become a mulberry field;

In the urban area, shops are busy opening, restaurants, pawnshops, hotels, brothels, grocery stores, etc., people come and go, and everyone's face is full of new smiles;

On the sea, the morning sun has just sprinkled on the sea, and the fishing boats are full of loads;

In the port, merchant ships enter the port one after another, and people on the shore are busy loading and unloading ships;

The interior hall in the city center has been completed, and Higg has moved into a suite in the interior hall, leaving the cave where he had lived five years ago. All officials can be arranged to be housed in the interior hall, and the construction of this internal affairs hall that cost more than 2 million gold coins marks the real establishment of Fuxing City. 、

Higg smiled and said to Blue Fairy, "Blue Fairy, look at the city I built!" Look at the people here, it's my city and theirs! ”

Lan Xian'er said with a smile: "I see not only the city, I see the responsibility that should be assumed!" Higg, this is your city, your home, you have her, you have to protect her, don't let her get any harm, the more you have, the greater your responsibility! ”

"Lord of the Castle!" The messenger came to report: "The Third Theater of the Third Army has sent an envoy to ask for a visit to the City Lord!" ”

Higg was stunned for a moment and asked, "The Third Theater of the Third Legion?" What are they going to do? Don't they know that I'm rooting for Queen Catherine? No, let them go back! ”

"Yes, Lord of the Castle!" The herald's reins turned his horse's head, and he was about to go back.

"Wait a minute!" Lan Xian'er hurriedly drank the messenger, turned her head and asked Higg, "Why don't you see it?" ”

Higg said coldly: "I have a deep blood feud with the Third Legion, no matter what their purpose is, I don't want to know!" ”

Lan Xian'er smiled: "It's Arad who has an enmity with you, what does it have to do with the Third Legion?" ”

Higg asked, "What's the difference?" Arad is the Third Legion, and the Third Legion is Arad! ”

Lan Xian'er said: "As long as you can defeat Arad, the Third Legion is still there, and it doesn't matter much to you?" You are now surviving between the Second and Third Legions, and life is not easy. Although the Third Legion is subordinate to Arad, your purpose is that Arad is not the owner of the Third Legion. You identify yourself as an enemy of the Third Legion and an ally of the Second Legion, but between the forces and the forces, there are no eternal enemies, no eternal allies, only eternal interests! ”

Seeing that Higg didn't speak, Blue Fairy continued, "I think this is a good opportunity, why can't we use this opportunity to reverse the passive relationship with the Second Legion Colenva?" ”

Higg smiled bitterly: "But I am in contact with the Third Legion, what if Catherine knows about it, and Xingshi asks for the guilt?" ”

Lan Xian'er smiled: "The messenger has come, even if you haven't been in contact, can Catherine believe it?" The Third Legion is obviously trying to embarrass you, and it will be difficult for you to accept it or not, unless you kill the Emissary and completely anger the Third Legion, but do you have the strength to withstand the wrath of the Third Legion now? ”

After a pause, Higg said, "Okay, you come with me to meet you!" ”

……

Fuxing City, Interior Hall.

"Campbell, the third theater of the Third Army of the Alasia Empire, is ordered by Marshal Sampu in the war zone, to visit Mr. Higg, the lord of Fuxing City!" Messenger Campbell saluted.

Higg laughed, "I don't have much to do with the Third Legion, Mr. Campbell, don't you think it's a bit presumptuous?" ”

Campbell smiled: "Hahaha, Mr. Higg, your warship hijacked seven grain ships in my third war zone, and you think we can't find out if you pretend to be a pirate?" You cooperated with the Second Legion to annihilate nearly 100,000 people of the Third Legion, do you think we can't investigate? Mr. Higg not only has a relationship with our Third Army, but also has a deep relationship! ”

Higg smiled awkwardly and said, "So, Mr. Campbell's representative Marshal Samp came to Xingshi to ask for guilt?" ”

Campbell smiled and said, "Mr. Higg, Marshal Samp may not be able to see the seven military rations, and you can also turn a blind eye to your cooperation with the Second Legion, provided that Mr. Higg has a general understanding." ”

Higg smiled and said, "Mr. Campbell, if you have any requests, you don't have to beat around the bush. Hehe, I'm a bandit, I can't play you guys! ”

"Mr. Higg is really happy!" Campbell laughed, "Since Mr. Higg thinks that he is a bandit, and Marshal Samp wants to recruit Mr. Anhiger, I don't know if Mr. Higg has this meaning!" ”

Higg said: "Marshal Sampu is really flattering, first Xingshi asks for guilt, and then recruits An, a fist and a sweet date, hahaha!" Mr. Campbell, it seems that if I disagree, Marshal Samp will certainly not agree? Mr. Campbell is well-informed, and of course he knows that I am a volunteer loyal to Her Majesty, and even if I am recruited, I will be close to Her Majesty, so why does Sir think that I will be biased towards your Third Legion! ”

Campbell said: "Mr. Higg should be a man who understands, and he should see very clearly. His Majesty Arad has been in power for more than five years, and he has won the hearts of the people, Catherine's remnants are just surviving, and the Alasia Empire is unifying again under the leadership of His Majesty Arad, which is unstoppable! I hope Mr. Higg doesn't go against the tide! ”

Higg said: "These words of Mr. are too unnutritious, just say what the conditions, I listen!" ”

"Good! It's a pleasure to talk to Mr. Higg! Campbell said: "Mr. Higg is still the lord of Fuxing City, except for the need to be loyal to His Majesty Arad, he will have the highest autonomy, and General Sampu has only one request, which is to garrison in Fuxing City!" ”

"Hahaha!" Higg laughed and said, "Marshal Samp, when I was a three-year-old? A high degree of autonomy? Garrison? Your army is stationed in, and I am not at your disposal, and what kind of high degree of autonomy are you talking about? Please come back, sir! ”

"Mr. Higg is not in a hurry, wait until I finish!" Campbell said: "What Marshal Samp means is that the harbor of Fuxing City meets the conditions of our navy, and only the navy is stationed, and the other armies are still in the hands of Mr. Higg!" ”

"Mr. Campbell!" Higg said: "If I don't accept Zhao'an, not only is there a high degree of autonomy, but also sovereignty, whether it is the navy or the army, it belongs to Fuxing City, you don't seem to have given any benefits!" ”

"Mr. Higg, do you still want to be alone among His Majesty Allad and Catherine's remnant?" Campbell smiled: "You can only choose a side, I hope Mr. Higg recognizes the situation and does not misjudge!" ”

Higg laughed, "How could Mr. Campbell assume that I would accept your terms, and if the Second Legion gave me the same terms, I wouldn't accept them?" ”

Campbell laughed loudly: "Of course Catherine will not accept your request for a high degree of autonomy, Catherine thinks that you are her volunteers, but she also does everything possible to secretly control you, hehe, if Catherine wins the war, after the war, it will naturally disarm you." We are different, we have the credentials of His Majesty Arad, and many of the so-called volunteers have accepted the conditions of a high degree of autonomy after the war, so His Majesty Arad will naturally keep his promises, otherwise wouldn't the world be in chaos again? ”

"Well, although it is reluctant, it can also be regarded as a guarantee!" Higg smiled: "It's just that I'm a bandit, and I was originally a second leader, such a major matter, of course I have to discuss it with my leaders first, please Mr. Lester for a few days!" ”

"Good! Then I'll wait for good news, Mr. Higg! ”
