Chapter 270: Shocking Layout (Part II)

Dacrowe was shocked. It is impossible for Viscount Randall not to know that transplanting a thorn tree is in the best interests of the Wellington family, but why would he do it?

At this moment, Da Kru really felt that Viscount Randall was unfathomable, and he couldn't grasp his intentions at all. If a lord can't see the opponent's layout clearly, then the family he leads will fall into passivity. Dacrwe couldn't help but feel frustrated, but the Duke of Wellington's encouraging and expectant look made him regain his strength and scrutinize the joints.

The Duke of Wellington was leisurely drinking coffee, the study fell silent, Dacrwe had no clue, he just wanted to ask for advice, but saw his father rubbing the white crystal ring on his finger, which was a treasure given by the church to the Duke of Wellington.

A flash of inspiration flashed through Dacrue's mind, and he blurted out, "Bishop Seon!"

"Hah, ha, ha!" said the Duke of Wellington, laughing, standing up, "Yes! In two years, Archbishop Lazarus will be elevated to the rank of Cardinal Archbishop." This guy wants to take over the position of archbishop and needs our support, so he is willing to cooperate with our small actions to prevent the spiny kidney beans from flowing into the Buryat territory. If it were a normal day, Sain would immediately jump out against the transplantation of the thorny rue tree. In the past two years, hehe, we can transplant as we please! After all, Sain's eyes are no longer in this parish. ”

"At this time, Viscount Randall threw out a plan to transplant the thorn tree. What do you mean by Victor?"

Dakru nodded: "Viscount Randall transplanted the thorny kidney beans, and his territory immediately had the ability to accommodate the outcasts. We've removed the rue tree, the yield of the kidney bean has decreased, the church's ability to give relief to the displaced has weakened, and some of the displaced people will leave the dukedom. If we were to guide them a little, they would have migrated to Randall via the Buryat territory. Compared to the benefits of reducing the number of displaced people, our access to arable land is a small matter. ”

"yes. Viscount Randall completely took the initiative. For him, spiny kidney beans can be planted, but not planted, and spiny kidney trees can be transplanted as many as they want. We don't have any room for bargaining!" Speaking of which, the Duke of Wellington remembered that a few months ago, Victor said with an innocent face: We have no plans to move the displaced people. He had the urge to vomit blood.

Randall's territory needs a population, and the Duke of Wellington wants to reduce the number of excess people in the territory, which is a negotiable matter. But at a critical moment, Victor threw out a plan for the transplantation of thorn rue trees that the Wellington family could not refuse.

If you want to transplant the thorny rue tree? Do you want to reduce the number of displaced people? Yes! You will bear the cost of transplantation, and you will be responsible for the food supply of Yeliu City, and I will decide whether to collect more or less!

The Duke of Wellington was depressed and helpless, and finally had to sigh: "Viscount Randall can accept as many people as he wants, and all the costs will be borne by us." This little guy is amazing!"

Dacrus comforted beside him: "Father, we can't refuse His Excellency Randall's conditions, but it's not non-negotiable. Viscount Randall can transplant 100,000 thorn trees, and he can receive more! ”

The Duke of Wellington nodded and asked, "Then what conditions are you going to offer?"

"Although, the cost of transplanting the rue tree is not small, but the more Lord Randall transplants, the more arable land we will have, and the less population pressure will be. In the long run, it's still good for us. So, we can give him some more benefits! I intend to reduce the price of the grain supplied to Yehliu City by 20%, so that more displaced people can go to Buryatia to earn a living, and let His Excellency Randall choose. In addition, Lord Randall will subsidize him with 1 silver sol for each thorn tree. I estimate the cost to be 25,000 gold soles. ”

When the Duke of Wellington heard this, he shook his head again and again. Dacrue bowed and suggested, "Father, when we planted prickly kidney beans, didn't His Majesty the Pope reward us with a magic ring? ”

"I'm not reluctant to give up 25,000 gold soles. The Duke of Wellington waved his hand and said, "Although we can't breed wild boars on a large scale, we can promote intensive cultivation." Food prices will definitely fall in the next two years! Therefore, your reduction in food prices will not be able to completely impress Viscount Randall. As for the monetary subsidy...... That's even less desirable!"

Dacrue said suddenly: "Sending money directly to Lord Randall is not the dignity of the Wellington family!"

"It's just one aspect. The Duke of Wellington nodded and said, "We don't have the initiative, and you propose a money transaction again, and Victor sits on the ground to raise the price, what should you do?"

"You have to remember not to take the initiative to negotiate the price with your opponent without your hole cards!

Da Kru was taken aback, and said with a happy heart: "Father, I will definitely remember your teachings!"

Wellington was very satisfied with the attitude of the heir of the family, and said with a smile: "The clanging sound of the poor people and horses, there is nothing wrong with your idea of sending money, but the method is too simple and crude." Giving money is also a science!"

"What do you mean?"

"Green bricks!"

"Green bricks?"

"That's right! Wellington walked to the window, pointed to the outer city of Vistock, and said, "We will buy green bricks from Victor and rebuild the outer city of Vistock with green bricks!"

"This ......" Dakru was shocked by his father's generosity, and said after a long time: "Father, it takes at least 150,000 gold soles to rebuild the outer city with green bricks!"

"150,000 gold soles are just two castles. The Duke of Wellington waved his hand magnificently and hummed: "Black City and Yeliu City are both building outer cities with blue bricks, and when they are built, won't my Vistock become a country?!"

"In a few years, the nearby lords will purchase a large number of green bricks, and the price of green bricks will definitely rise! If we don't build it now, when will we build it? Moreover, we can also have a friendship when we buy a large number of his green bricks when Victor is in the most difficult time. In case, he really became the second Sword Master, so he wouldn't be too embarrassed by our Wellington family. ”

The Duke of Wellington expressed his concerns, and Dacrus nodded silently, they always felt that the prickly kidney beans were a pit. If given a choice, the Wellington family would prefer to bully the Southern Lord than the hot Viscount Randall.

If you can't grasp the opportunity now, the prickly kidney beans will devour more farmland, and the future of the family will be bleak.

The Duke of Wellington made up his mind, turned and commanded, "Call Sardinia." ”

After a while, Sardinia walked in with a shrunken head, and when he saw the duke's father and son, he said flatteringly: "Master, I have figured it out." The master is wise!

Sardinian was a man of shallow vision, a stingy man, loyal to his family, and a right-hand man to the master of trade, dealing with the merchants. Let him go to purchase green bricks, and he will not let the family suffer.

Thinking of this, the Duke of Wellington knocked on the table and ordered: "Sardinia, you immediately lead the caravan to Randall to purchase green bricks, the more the better." ”

Sardinia's face became very strange, and he hesitated and said, "My lord, Viscount Randall handed over all the green bricks to the Buryat family to run. We can only buy bricks in Yehliucheng, but the Buryatia themselves are not enough, and now they do not sell bricks to the public. I'm afraid it will be a while before I can buy green bricks. ”

"What?"

Sardinia hurriedly explained: "My lord, as far as I know, Yeliu City is expanding the outer city and needs a large number of green bricks. The Buryatia family did not have enough money, and Viscountess Judy sought the help of Viscount Randall. As a result, Viscount Randall handed over the exclusive right to operate the green bricks to Yehwillow City. Yeliucheng expanded the outer city when it had money, and sold green bricks when it didn't have money. So, we're going to have to wait a while......"

Dacrue shook his head with a smile and said, "It seems that His Excellency Randall loves beauty more than money..... I heard that the eldest lady of the Chebman family is also his lover." It's a pity that Margaret is already engaged to Prince Edward..... and it is not easy for our Wellington family to find another high-ranking female knight worthy of Lord Randall. ”

The Duke of Wellington ignored his son's ridicule, and walked straight to the map to examine it carefully.

The market prospect of green bricks is immeasurable, and many families are working on the idea of giant brick kilns, but the Duke of Wellington scoffs at it. Architectural design is a profound science, and the larger the building, the more complex it is. If you can't see the inner structure of the giant brick kiln, even the master of the White Tower, who is proficient in architectural design, will not be able to imitate it. The farmers were all masons, but without a castle designer, they could build a farmhouse, a stable, or something. Even if the farmer was involved in the construction of the giant brick kiln, they would not build the giant brick kiln.

Randall owned a giant brick kiln designed by the York family, and Victor could make money selling soil, so why would he hand over such a big business to the Buryatia family?

Wrong. The relationship between Gillian, Judy and Victor's lover is actually an alliance between the three families against Ant-Man!

Following this line of thought, the Duke of Wellington's fingers wandered around the map and found that the narrow Buryat Territory bordered by 7 families, and the geographical location was very convenient and convenient, and it actually connected the lords of the centaur hills, the south-central and southern regions, and even radiated to the southeast of the kingdom!

Thinking of Victor handing over the green bricks to the Buryat family for exclusive management, and letting them earn the difference, the Duke of Wellington was shocked and exclaimed: "Sit on the ground and start the price! This is a fixed caravan!"

"Father, what's wrong with you?" asked Dacrue with concern.

The Duke of Wellington raised his hand and motioned for the others to silence him, and he sat alone in contemplation, and his thoughts gradually became clearer.

The centaur hills are pioneers, lack of people, lack of money, lack of materials, except for fine iron resources, the major chambers of commerce are ready to bite them hard. As a result, the Yorkists turned the Buryat Territory into a permanent caravan, effectively breaking the monopoly of the major caravanserais. Since the Buryatia family maintained low taxes, all kinds of goods were gathered in Yehliu City, and the Yorkists could buy all kinds of goods at low prices and absorb the displaced people.

Not only that, the Buryat family built a city with green bricks, and the major lords will follow suit, and Viktor can obviously make money by selling land, but he gives the profits to the Buryat family, which is his support for the Buryat territory. Then, the homeless hired workers made money, and Victor was selling them wild boar and jaggery to make a profit. The homeless people have money in their hands, and they will also attract other caravans to visit Yeliu City, bring all kinds of supplies, provide more job opportunities, the Buryat family can have more taxes, and when the population increases, they will import the centaur hills, and provide a steady stream of manpower for the centaur hills, so as to promote the construction of streams and reservoirs, squeeze the living space of beasts and monsters, and ensure the continuous development of the new agricultural and pastoral system. This virtuous cycle never ends!

The most important thing is that everyone profits from it!

The Buryat lords broke away from the southern lords and maintained a neutral position, the south-central lords were no longer hostile to them, the southern lords could buy low-cost grain from Yeliucheng, and the south-central lords could buy low-cost minerals, and the southeastern lords sold high-quality timber in Yehwillow, and the homeless hired laborers earned wages, and donations to the church were indispensable, and the church was of course happy. This is all because profits are no longer exploited by large chambers of commerce. And the stable situation in the south is in line with the needs of the Augustian family! Then, everyone must maintain the fixed caravan of Yeliu City!

The Duke of Wellington found that the two major strategies of eliminating the prickly kidney beans and reducing the population were closely related to Wild Willow City, and the dividends of participating in the trade of Wild Willow City were irresistible temptations for him.

This earth-shattering layout covers politics, farming, farming, population, trade, and conquers the lords, the homeless, and the church, and its greatest brilliance lies in the satisfaction of everyone!

The Duke of Wellington couldn't help but marvel at this strategist. The first thing that came to his mind was Sylvia, and he even suspected that the Buryat Territory was also orchestrated by the Yorks, but all indications were that Austin's unfortunate babe had fallen for the Dordor scheme. Moreover, the Duke of Wellington did not think that the House of York was much better than himself. Then, the image of Victor came to his mind.

The whimsical division of labor system, the invention of purple cane wine, coffee, snow sugar and jaggery, the holding of the territory, resisting the army of Ant-Man, shooting Austin without hesitation, Sylvia was almost indulgently spoiled, handing over the profits of the green bricks to Yeliu City, boldly transplanting thorny kidney beans, all things are related to Victor, these are also things that other nobles dare not think about and dare not do.

If it was really him, then the pattern of this young lord was so big and the strategy was so deep that it was unimaginable!

The Duke of Wellington let out a long sigh, and Dacrus stepped forward and asked, "Father, what do you think?"

"Unfortunately, Margaret is already engaged to Prince Edward. The Duke of Wellington smiled and patted his son on the shoulder.

"From now on, the price of grain shipped to Yehliu City will be reduced by 20%, and an interest-free loan of 100,000 gold soles will be provided to the Buryat family to help them build the outer city. If they don't have the money, it doesn't matter, it will be regarded as the rent for renting the shops in Yeliu City. In short, try to rent as many shops as possible, for a period of 50 years. ”

"50 years?!" Dacrus was stunned and asked, "Father, is this too risky?"

"Risky? no! It's an investment in a stationary caravan. Compared to Lord Randall's green brick profits, I'm already stingy!"

"We want Lord Randall to see the sincerity of the Wellington family!"
