Chapter 440: Five Elements
Henry's movements were fast, and before Joffrey could react, he had already hung up the phone.
However, thinking that 10 million bonds is not a lot for a casino, Joffrey didn't care.
"Joffrey, I've gambled all my fortune this time, and I won't give up until I get rid of the casinos!" Henry felt like he was back in the spirit of his youth, when he was so crazy.
"Wait...... What do you mean...... Joffrey suddenly had a bad premonition, "Didn't you buy it with casino money?"
"Of course, it's my own money, the casino's money has Atlanta's share, and it's more troublesome to use it for large amounts. ”
"How much ...... did you buy?"
"Recently, more than a dozen new casinos have opened in Atlanta, I have let people try it a few times, and the background is quite deep, since you are sure, I will let people buy them, and I have earned these millions of gold coins over the years, and I have smashed them all in. ”
“......”
Joffrey listened, and fell silent for a moment.
Teacher Lian's side lost his fortune, and Henry probably wouldn't want him to pay if he lost......
Well!
Henry couldn't seem to beat him.
Thinking of this, Joffrey was relieved.
"Uncle Henry, you're getting a little impulsive. ”
Joffrey sighed.
Henry shook his head and said: "I think your previous analysis is very reasonable, the probability of winning in the Chaman Empire is not small, and the odds are still high now, as long as he can win in a row, it is possible for this million gold coins to multiply a hundred times!"
"I don't want that 1 million bonds, don't look for me if you lose......"
Joffrey froze.
Who knows when the Chaman Empire will start its counteroffensive, in case they have to wait any longer, and it is not yet the most dangerous warning point......
Who knew if Joffrey was ready to do it, but Henry still didn't agree. Waving his hand, he said, "Each casino has your share of 1 million bonds, and if you win, yours will be counted." ”
1 million ...... per family That's more than 10 million bonds?
Joffrey's footsteps stopped in an instant.
This time he won the bet, and he turned over again!
"Okay, uncle, I'll take this generous gift from you! I'll go to the Chaman Empire team now!" Joffrey gritted his teeth and said, for the sake of the more than 10 million bonds and the possible future terrorist gains, he decided to give the Chaman Empire a little more opportunity to share the materials collected during this time!
After all, the city of Atlanta nominally belonged to the Barak Kingdom, and the Barak Kingdom nominally belonged to the Chaman Empire.
So, this should be considered pure patriotism?
Arriving at the School of Commerce, Joffrey easily found the Chaman Empire's residence in Atlanta, a relatively remote dormitory building.
In fact, this was requested by the Chaman Empire itself, and the Tournament Committee agreed to it without much consideration.
After all, nominally everyone is from the Chaman Empire, and seeing that the Chaman Empire is so weakened now, many people are a little unbearable, and this small request will naturally not be refused.
Joffrey walked into the dormitory building, and there was no figure walking in the hallway, and it was not surprising that the dormitory building was equipped with a martial arts room, and the contestants usually went there to train to stay in shape.
As a result, Joffrey looked around, but he didn't see anyone.
"What about the Chaman Empire team, why didn't you see anyone?" asked Joffrey directly to the dormitory administrator of this building, pointing to the downstairs of the dormitory.
The dormitory administrator recognized Joffrey, and his expression was still a little excited, after all, Joffrey was now popular and scary in Atlanta City, so Joffrey asked again, and the dormitory administrator came back to his senses and said embarrassedly: "They went out early in the morning and haven't come back yet." ”
"Going out?" Joffrey frowned, the Chaman Empire team has a game tomorrow, and it should be banned at this time.
Did I guess wrong, they wanted to give up?
Joffrey shook his head, banishing the terrible thought out of his head.
"Do you know where to go?"
"I don't know. ”
"Oh, thanks. ”
Joffrey sighed that it was not a good time, and was about to go back when he suddenly saw the figure of a young man, and immediately walked over.
"Hello, I'm Joffrey from Atlanta's Academy of Martial Arts. ”
"Hello, I'm Kim, I know you, the genius boy from Atlanta, are you looking for me?" Kim looked at Joffrey in surprise, not understanding what he was going to do.
"I'm looking for the head of the Chaman Empire team, and if you are, then I'm looking for you. ”
"Then please come with me and talk again in the house. Kim smiled and led Joffrey into the room.
The room was ordinary, the style of a student's dormitory, and there was no difference, and Joffrey only glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze and found a place to sit down.
"Just tell me anything, I can still call the shots about the team. Kim said with a smile.
Joffrey nodded, glanced outside the door, and asked curiously: "What about the students of the academy, why haven't you seen any of them, you should cultivate your mind and qi at this time before the game and actively prepare for the game, right?" ”
"It's not easy to say, but you're from Atlanta, so it's okay to talk to you. ”
Jin said calmly: "They were all sent by me to the old dean of your academy, and they should be improving their strength at this time." ”
"Can the old dean really help improve his strength?" Joffrey's mind became active, since outsiders are helping, he, who is from an orthodox Atlanta Academy with good roots, has no problem with you, right?
As soon as Jin saw Joffrey's face, he knew what he was thinking, and immediately shook his head and said: "There is a price to improve strength, it is not necessarily a good thing, it is also out of helplessness, I made this decision, if it wasn't for no way, I wouldn't let them go." ”
Kim didn't say what the price was, but Joffrey saw that his heavy expression didn't look like he was lying, and he knew that the price should be really large, otherwise he wouldn't have made all the princes of a country so out of shape.
"Ask a question that isn't quite appropriate...... Do you have any confidence to win tomorrow's game?" Joffrey stared at Kim, waiting for his answer.
Jin Youxin looked at Joffrey incomprehensibly, in what he saw and heard, Joffrey should be the most famous genius in Atlanta City, why would he ask such a question that should not be asked.
"Every game Chaman Empire will give it their all. Kim said seriously.
"Then you're going to win tomorrow, and that's some of the player information that Atlanta City has collected, and I hope it will help you. ”
Jin flipped through his hand twice, his expression quickly became serious, and after reading the information in his hand, he looked at Joffrey and said seriously: "This information is very useful, I'm afraid it is not easy for you to collect, why give it to me." ”
"After all, the Chaman Empire is the monarchy of the kingdom, and when the empire is strong, our confidence will be much stronger, so the game must be won, this is not just my idea...... And Uncle Henry. The second half of Joffrey didn't say it, but silently added it in his heart.
Jin was silent for a while, and then suddenly smiled, "This should be Ari's idea, right?"
"Huh?"
"You don't have to pretend, I know it's him. Jin waved his hand and said with an affirmative expression: "If there is one person in Atlanta City who wants the Chaman Empire to win, that person must be him." ”
Joffrey shrugged his shoulders and was noncommittal.
"I've searched for Ari several times, but I haven't found him, can you help me? Kim looked at Joffrey and suddenly pleaded.
"The boss has had an understanding these days, and he is in retreat and cultivating, and I can't see him. Joffrey decisively refused, what a joke, he still wanted to find Ari.
"If you don't meet, you can help me with a word. Kim didn't give up, but looked at Joffrey expectantly.
When he arrived in Atlanta City, he realized what the empire had missed, if the empire could have the armament of the Dragon Falcon Army in Atlanta City, if it could have these magic guides in Atlanta City, the decline of the empire could be completely reversed!
He had always thought that although the empire was weak, it was one of the six empires, and there were two major allies, so he almost never cared about state affairs, and spent his days pursuing the mystery of magic.
However, in the past two years, the empire has decayed too quickly, so fast that it has even become a piece of cake in the mouths of all the forces on the mainland.
Even, many of the big nobles in the Chaman Empire gave up the empire and secretly took refuge in the other five empires on the mainland, waiting for the Chaman Empire to fall, so that they could draw nutrients from it.
Before he came, he was ready to abandon the demon and enter politics.
Because of magic, you can't save the Chaman Empire!
Even if he becomes a magister, the role for the empire is better than nothing.
But after seeing Atlanta, he changed his mind.
He saw the other side of magic besides fighting!
He believed that this must be an opportunity for the rise of the empire!
As long as the empire delays for a few more years and discovers the new magical civilization of Atlanta, the empire may be able to breathe new life.
Unfortunately, the only one in Atlanta City who can call the shots is Ari, and he has asked to see Ari several times, but he has not seen him.
Today he went to find Ari, and he returned unexpectedly.
Joffrey spread his hands: "It's okay to talk, but I don't know when I'll be able to meet the boss, but if you want to meet the boss, it's not impossible to ......"
"What's the solution?"
"Win this game!" Joffrey swore an oath, "You won the game, which proves that the Chaman Empire is still willing to resist, and has the strength to resist, so from tomorrow onwards, you can't lose a single game!"
"It's a bit early to start tomorrow, I'm going to wait for two more games, it's too early, and the stamina may not be enough......," Jin said with a frown.
Joffrey suddenly broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, fortunately he came here today, otherwise a lot of money would have been lost.
"However, it shouldn't be a big problem, although other colleges are given time to react, they may not be able to grasp it. Kim's brow widened again.
"Hmm!" Joffrey nodded hurriedly: "Two days later, maybe there will really be no chance, don't take the risk, start the counterattack tomorrow!"
"Good. "Kim doesn't have a problem either, so it shouldn't be big two days early, and it's very important to be able to get the support of Atlanta City.
"You help me and Ari talk about it, if Atlanta City is willing to cooperate with the Empire, all the resources of the Chaman Empire will be open to Atlantan City, including mines, treasury, magicians, etc., etc., etc!"
"Is the empire really willing?" Joffrey was moved when he heard it, no matter how weak the Chaman Empire is, it is also the six empires, not to mention those in the mines, the talent reserve of magicians is countless times that of Atlantan City, and with the full support of the Chaman Empire, the development speed of Atlantan City can be increased countless times.
"This is just my initial idea......" Seeing Joffrey's disappointed expression, Jin hurriedly said, "But it should be no problem, I am sure to convince Brother Wang." ”
Joffrey thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "Since you still have no way to fully replace the Chaman Empire, don't you want our limited cooperation?"
"How can there be a limit to cooperation?" asked Kim curiously, although Joffrey was very young, these teenagers in Atlanta City couldn't look at it with the eyes of ordinary people.
"I have a mercenary group, which is the largest mercenary union organization except for the mercenary union, and the latest technology in Atlanta City will not be disclosed to the public, but my mercenary group has the right to use it. When the time comes, you take out resources to support my development, I will give you some shares of the mercenary group, and when the time comes, I will directly do research and development on the technology of Atlanta City, I will get the technology, and you will have the right to use the results, what do you think. ”
"Is that the first mercenary group of the Young Men's Gang?" Kim obviously knew a little about Atlanta City as well, and as soon as Joffrey said it, he was a little impressed.
"That's right, this mercenary group I manage is different from ordinary mercenary groups, in addition to some of the functions of the ordinary mercenary guild, it will also have its own independent high-end magic research room, weapon research and development room, training institution in the future, as long as it develops smoothly, it won't take long, and there is even a chance to build a new guild on its basis, he will contain all the functions of the guild!"
Joffrey's eyes lit up when he said, but Jin was dumbfounded: "You are going to create a new continental guild, and it will also include the functions of other guilds?"
"That's right, this is the future development direction of the mercenary group, and if you join it, you will definitely make a lot of money. Joffrey swore awkwardly.
If he can get the support of the Chaman Empire, he will be one step closer to his dream, and the only thing to worry about is how much stake to give the Chaman Empire.
His demand for resources is massive, but he is unwilling to give too many shares, ten percent is already the largest share he can accept, more than this share, he will feel distressed, after all, this is the future number one guild in the mainland, it is worth a lot!
After thinking about it, he raised a finger and said: "I don't have high requirements for you, you sent me a thousand intermediate magic research talents in the early stage, plus five million gold coins in cash, which can be exchanged for five percent of the mercenary group's shares, and if the mercenary group has capital requirements in the later stage, you have the opportunity to increase your holdings first!"
