Chapter 121: Gambling (I)

For three hundred years, although the Church of Light no longer hunts magicians, the affected people still worship the magic of magic.

A magician, who gains respect at the same time, also gains alienation - at least for ordinary people.

So, although the Magic Guild exists in many cities, it is never shown to outsiders, and even most of the citizens do not know where the Magic Guild is located - of course, most mages are very happy with this arrangement, they are essentially scientists on Earth, and they are very satisfied with having a quiet environment where they can delve into magic.

But as far as the other party is concerned, a large and hazy plan is already taking shape, and these days, on the one hand, he is reading the books of the Wizards' Guild, where, even if it is a first-level data warehouse, there are 20,000 books, all about power, about the knowledge of the composition of the world.

Although there is no system for these books, they are not forgotten and can be digested slowly.

On the one hand, I have been thinking about how to control the entire world with my own strength, and how to break the situation where the God of Light occupies one-third of the four leafy continents.

But at this moment, an unexpected person came to visit—in Fang Xin's small building, which had become his office and residence in the city.

The visitor was a man, one of whom wore a gray cloak with black pupils.

"Hello, is it the priest of the Shadow God?" The badge on the cloak was a black net, which was the symbol of the Shadow God - the public display made Fang Xin a little surprised, this was the first time he had met the priests of other gods in this world, and he could feel the trace of power that was not very powerful but endless.

The man pulled down the mask, completely revealing the face of the middle-aged man, he bowed slightly, and said, "My lord, I am Kathylan, the priest of the Shadow God, and I greet you. ”

The god of the latent shadow has the power of darkness, and has the four priesthoods of lurking, intelligence, shadow, and thief, also known as the black spider, which means the existence of weaving a web in the dark.

Theoretically, any thief union is subordinate to the god of the latent shadow, although in fact the thief union is the best, but it is not a problem to exert some influence.

"Mr. Kacyland, do you represent the Church, or the Thieves' Guild to which you belong?" Fang Xin saw that under his cloak again, there was a mark, it was a blood-dripping dagger, this was not a secret in the city, it was the mark of the Blood Dagger Thieves' Union, so he said directly.

"On my behalf, my lord!" Kathelan's face remained unchanged, and he said with a smile: "I heard that my lord has taken over the knight's ship, and I personally hope to reach a certain alliance with you." ”

The Blood Dagger is a powerful thief union in the city, but it is not the only one, in fact, Fang Xin thinks it is very wise, after all, the authorities can accommodate the existence of the thief union in the territory and the city, but will not tolerate the only thief union.

And this blood dagger has a large number of thieves, these thieves are not gangsters in the ordinary sense, but professional thieves with professions, engaged in spy, killer, smuggling work, I heard that there are even priests of the shadow god in it, now there is no doubt that this is true.

But Fang Xin didn't care at all, he didn't ask the reason, and said: "You want to cooperate with me, it's good, I'm short of people now, what do you want to get, and what can you give?" ”

Kacylan was shocked and said: "My lord, my strength is not great, but I can guarantee that the goods transported by your ship can be sold through a considerable channel, of course, the same is true for purchases, and as for the reward, I hope to obtain your territory as a transit point for goods." ”

The Silver Rose Manor, with an area of 2 square kilometers, has 600 tenants, but it is true that it is coastal and has access to rivers, but this is not a real reason.

However, the strong man didn't ask the reason at all, and Fang Xinwen didn't ask him what he meant, after thinking about it for a moment, he said, "Okay, but I hope to get some intelligence and support through you." ”

"Of course, I can be the master and give you the guest treatment of the iron-level badge, ninety-five discount, if there is more cooperation in the future, there will be better treatment." Kacylan was stunned and said.

The god of the shadow is strong, so the best thieves' guilds are all part of the intelligence network, and it can even be said that a lot of information has the highest value.

Therefore, high-level thieves' unions even organize thieves to infiltrate, collect, organize, and sell information.

"Iron Badge Guest?" Fang Xin asked with some interest.

"Yes, the Iron badge we have released for potential guests can get a 95% discount, and for this kind of guest, there will be no fraud, of course, there is also a bronze badge below, and all purchases can get a 90% discount." "Moreover, you can post and accept some secret quests, just as you would post and accept quests in the Adventurer's Guild. ”

"Well, I see, do you have a special business to take over and transfer ownership?" Fang Xin asked directly.

"Takeovers and transfers? Please explain. ”

"That said, I'm very interested in Vincent. Sir Manley was very dissatisfied, so I wanted to bring him down within a year, and I wanted to accept the valuable estates, and you, the union, would give me a clear list of the estates, and how to transfer them to my name. Fang Xin said lightly.

“…… Maybe you don't know Vincent yet. Manly's strength. Although Cacylan received some hints from above, it was clear that he did not expect this man to be so arrogant.

"Tell me a little bit, I'm listening." Fang Xin said flatly, he took out a document and said.

“…… Vincent. Originally a businessman, Manly sold his entire fortune and bought a boat and began to speculate on business, which within twenty years had reached a considerable scale. ”

"Now his fleet consists of eleven galleons, and these ships alone are worth about 120,000 gold leike, and he also has two residences in the city, and has a number of shops, and has purchased six small estates, although it is not because of his low origin, as long as he has a trace of noble blood, he can buy the title of hereditary knight from the king."

"He has a guard of a hundred people, and he also has a huge influence in the Chamber of Commerce, on average, he can earn eighty thousand gold rak a year, which is the envy of even the earl." Cassiran said, but it was clear that he thought Fang Xin was crazy.

"But his foundation is still in the fleet, isn't it?" Fang Xin said in his spare time: "Moreover, you don't have to care how I do it, I just ask you, if he goes bankrupt, can you complete this takeover and transfer business?" ”

“…… Absolutely, Your Excellency, if you can. Kacyran bowed slightly and said: "I will give you the list of property and the record of the fleet's trip in two days, this business is worth 10,000 gold lake, you must pay 3,000 gold lake first, or 50% of the industry." ”

"3,000 gold lake?" Fang Xin smiled incomprehensibly and said, "Pay now?" ”

"You can be allowed a grace period of three days."

"No need, just take my Silver Rose Manor as a mortgage, how much is this worth?" Fang Xin said without hesitation.

“…… Can be worth 2000 gold lake. ”

Fang Xin's madness simply surprised Caselan, you must know that if Fang Xin really lost this manor, then he would completely lose the trust of Sir and even lose his reputation in the aristocratic circle, this gamble was too big.

"My small building, you can also mortgage 300 gold Lake, my knight armor, you can also mortgage 300 gold Lake, I still have 100 gold Laker in my hand, En, now there is 2700 gold Lake, and there is a gap of 300 gold Lake, do you want me to continue to mortgage or loan? If needed, I can borrow money from the town hall and the Wizards' Guild as a knight and as an apprentice in magic, and I believe that 1000 gold lake can still be borrowed. ”

“…… No need, if you mortgage the manor, the building, and this knight's armor, I can take over your business, but the term is one year, but if you can't come up with 3,000 gold Raike within a year, these will be completely mortgaged and no longer belong to you. ”

"Of course, sir, can we sign a contract?" Fang Xin smiled.

"Absolutely!" Kasilan had completely calmed down at this time, bowed and said, at the moment, opened the inkwell, and then the two drafted the contract on the spot, first Kasilan wrote, then Fang Xin read it, and proposed amendments, some opinions were accepted, and some opinions led to arguments, but no matter what, in half an hour, a contract was completed.

Fang Xin picked up the pen, signed on it, and used the magic imprint, an O-level magic, and suddenly, a ring imprint with wings appeared on the paper.

If printed on paper, this magic can exist for two years, which is enough for now.

Kathelan looked at him with a complicated expression, then prayed silently for a moment, stretched out his hand, pressed it on the paper, a black light flashed, and when he took it up, there was already a mark on it, which was the mark of the god of the shadow, which meant that the contract was supervised by the god.

In duplicate, Fang Xin accepted the next one, and Kathiran took one at this time, looked at it, and smiled with a meaningful expression. He didn't say anything, just said, "May God bless you!" ”
