Chapter 43: Unexpected Joy (During the new book, ask for collections, recommendations, old cats thank you)

Casio continued to bury his head in his work, but he couldn't fully concentrate, frowning from time to time, analyzing the intention of Count Calvin to send Rhett. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

In fact, he really thought a little too much about it this time, Red was not sent by Count Cavern, but the reason why the Red family helped the nobles of O'Ates City to take care of Greenwater, including some industries of the fishing industry, when Red learned about the dilemma faced by the fishing industry in Greenwater, he volunteered to negotiate with Casio.

According to his estimates, as long as his attitude is tough enough, and then he moves the nobles of the entire Outes City up, how can he still solve the reason that Casio, a down-and-out prince, will not be able to solve it.

In reality, however, he failed completely.

No, maybe he still succeeded a little bit, at least putting both Casio and Count Cavin in an awkward position.

If Casio knew the truth, he would definitely not help but sigh, he was really not afraid of god-like opponents, but afraid of pig-like teammates!

The sound of ghosts crying wolves could be heard from downstairs at the town hall, but it quickly subsided, compared to the fact that Agaret had already set up Red's guards and retinue.

Sure enough, after a while, Agaret came up to report that they had all followed Casio's instructions and locked up Red and his gang in the dungeon next to the city hall.

Casio thought for a moment and instructed Agaret: "You arrange for someone to go to the city of Outes to send a message to Count Cavin, the general content of which is that Lord Red has been disrespectful to me and refused to apologize, so I have been imprisoned for the time being. ”

As soon as Agaret was ordered to leave, he saw Tony wandering at the door of the office, as if he was looking for Casio for something, and he didn't seem to have made up his mind to come in.

Casio directly let Tony into the office and asked, "What, after working as a transcriptionist for a few days, you want to change jobs?"

Ever since Casio last sent the voluntarily defective Tony to work as a scribe, he had instructed Maester Dain to keep an eye on him and report his information to himself.

During this period of time, according to Dain's report, although Tony sat in his place all day and copied and wrote, he did not mean to be negative or complain at all.

He did a very good job in every job that Master Dain assigned him, and he didn't seem to be perfunctory just because Casio didn't value him.

Hearing Casio's slightly playful question, Tony smiled and asked tentatively, "Your Royal Highness, I'm afraid it's not too appropriate for you to do this to Your Excellency Red!"

"Oh, why?" Casio's gaze flashed with a hint of uncertainty in his tone.

Casio likes smart people, but he doesn't like people who think they are smart and try to show themselves.

If Tony relied on his ingenuity today to analyze the pros and cons with him, and wanted to get his own attention, it would backfire and make Casio's evaluation of him lower by a notch.

I don't know if I heard the deep meaning in Casio's tone, Tony shook his head: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you misunderstood, I didn't want to express the meaning of my suggestion. I just think that since you have done this, Your Royal Highness, there must be a reason for you. ”

After a pause, Tony seemed to have made up his mind: "I'm coming to you today about another matter. ”

Tony cleverly sidestepped the topic of Red, causing Casio to nod his head slightly.

"What's the matter?"

As soon as he got down to business, Tony's expression became serious: "First of all, it is undeniable that Your Royal Highness the Prince is definitely a benevolent and virtuous lord, and the changes you have brought to Greenwater Town are obvious to everyone. ”

Speaking of this, Tony changed his words: "However, behind this kindness, there needs to be plenty of money to back it up. I beg your pardon for taking the liberty of believing that the changes in Greenwater during this period of time have come from your personal property, Your Royal Highness the Prince. ”

Casio remained silent and waited for Tony to continue.

"A territory, with your personal possessions alone, may be able to prosper for a while, but it is not a long-term solution. ”

Seeing that Tony hadn't gotten to the center for so long, this was quite uncomfortable for Casio, who had always liked to be abbreviated, so he interrupted Tony: "I'm glad you were able to give me these suggestions, but I've already thought about what you said, and it's still in the future." ”

Tony was slightly stunned, and with his cleverness, after a little thought, he understood that Casio didn't seem to like flattery and beating around the bush.

So he went straight to the point this time: "I naturally believe that Your Royal Highness the Prince has considered these issues, but I have a message I want to tell His Royal Highness the Prince, hoping to add some help to Your Royal Highness the Prince's career." ”

This time it was Casio's turn to be stunned, he didn't expect Tony to spare such a big circle, it turned out that he wanted to tell himself a news.

"Tell me about it. ”

"Yes, Your Highness the Prince. Somewhere in the Whisper Forest, there is an unexplored vein. The preliminary estimate is that it should be dominated by iron ore, accompanied by a large amount of copper ore, and a small amount of silver ore and gold minerals. ”

As soon as Tony said this, Casio's eyes suddenly lit up.

Located at the foot of the Secret Forest and on the shore of the Green Water Lake, Lushui Town is a very excellent geographical location.

But in fact, the Green Water Lake fishery has nothing to do with Casio's half-dime, and the output in the Secret Forest Mountain is also limited, and the main thing that restricts this return is low production and population.

Based on the above reasons, Casio wants to start making a lot of money from the business of Greenwater, and it is estimated that it will take five or ten years to slowly polish it.

But what he lacks most now is time, and he is optimistic that he can still live so freely, no more than three years at most.

After all, when the Voltis Empire began to wage war against the Graka Empire, the Duchy of Dolan was definitely caught in the whirlpool of war.

And Tony now told him that there is a vein that can be mined, which is equivalent to giving him a vault for nothing, as long as he invests a part of it in advance, he can quickly get back the cost from the vein, and send it to various places, making a lot of money.

Not only that, even if those minerals are not sold, Casio will be able to build a forge by himself to make weapons and armor for his future army.

The cost of building it himself will definitely be much, much lower than the cost that he can only buy from the Four-Clawed Dragon Chamber of Commerce now.

And having its own forge was originally part of Casio's plan.

Casio can't be tempted by the fact that it is more than one thing to kill!

After Tony said this, he didn't say anything more, and quietly waited for Casio's thoughts and decisions.
