Sir Wright had already prepared, he had a detailed plan for the construction of the trade area in Gesson Town, and Baron Mura next to him was originally unhappy about Gray and Thor, who didn't want to join his Chamber of Commerce, but because of Sir Wright's more and more in-depth introduction, it slowly improved.

By the time Sir Wright had finished, Baron Mura's eyes had already lit up, "Very good idea, with the geographical advantage of Gersenburg, if the plan goes well, I think the chance of success is at least sixty percent or more, it is worth the risk!

Gray smiled: "We need your funding and your Chamber of Commerce's connections!"

Baron Mura was no exception to Gray's request, saying, "Again, you should join our Chamber of Commerce, so that you will receive a large sum of money!"

Gray smiled and shook his head, but did not speak.

These nobles had long been anxious to get a piece of the pie in the newly occupied land, and no one dared to mention what the Earl of Lockton had verbally promised in the early stages of the war, so they could only turn their attention to Gray.

Sir Wright's plan, although it requires a large investment upfront, will be used for a long time if successful, and it is a good deal, and the benefits obviously outweigh the risks.

Baron Mura scratched the short beard on his chin and asked, "What can you give us?"

"What do you need?"

Gray leaned back, leaning back on the couch, his eyes fixed on the bright red wine in his glass.

Baron Mura was stunned for Gray's answer at first, with a smile on his face, and he kept thinking in his heart, Gray asked him to put forward his own conditions, intending to explore his bottom line.

Thor leaned to the side, his glass held high, covering his eyes, as if to tell the two of them, you talk about your business, don't pull me.

"Forty percent of the shops, exempt from all taxes!" Baron Mura said.

Gray smiled, "Do you think this is possible?Baron Mura?" he put down the red wine and stared at Baron Mura, "One percent of the shop, the taxes are still paid!"

"The funds are ours, and the risks are also borne by us, Baron Cage, do you think the conditions you gave are very suitable?" Baron Mura was smiling, but his tone was very unhappy.

Gray smiled "haha" and said, "Okay, let's not bargain here, let's do it, thirty percent of the shops belong to you, and the tax can't be canceled! However, I can exempt all the caravans of your Chamber of Commerce from three-quarters of the customs duties, what do you think?"

After Mura heard Gray's proposal, he thought about it seriously, he didn't think about exempting the transaction tax of the store, this is a manifestation of the authority of the lord, and no lord will exempt any store from the tax.

Thirty percent of the shops are also acceptable, and Mura knows that he can't go too far, after all, the trade zone is someone else's territory, and as for the reduction of tariffs, this is a surprise.

"Okay! Close! I'm personally optimistic about your plan, but I'll have to go back and discuss it with the other members of the Chamber of Commerce, but the chances of passing it should be very good!" Baron Mura didn't care how much money he needed.

Gray was not surprised, he nodded with satisfaction, stared at Baron Mura and said, "We can talk about the details slowly, and you can come to Gersenburg when the time comes!"

Inviting other lords to his territory is a very serious matter, and Baron Mura didn't think much about it, so he agreed: "I'll go! Maybe just a few days!"

Baron Mura turned to look at Thor again: "Your Excellency Thor, can you prepare a room for me?

"Of course, if there's anything important you can talk to in the castle's secret chambers!" replied Thor.

"That couldn't be better!"

Baron Mura looked at Gray with an apologetic look, "I'm sorry, Baron Cage, we'll see you in a few days!"

Gray smiled in understanding.

Thor had been gone for less than ten minutes before returning to his study, and Sir Wright had already gone to the hall for a banquet, and he was always so keen on such things.

"Gray, I think that woman today should have been arranged by Baron Mura!"

Gray nodded, "I have long guessed that he wants me to lose my reputation in the aristocratic circles, and at the same time offend a group of nobles in the south of the Herion Command, so that I can only join their chamber of commerce, what a sinister person!"

"Did the Earl talk to you about something private, I wonder if you can tell me, I suppose we should be allies now!" Thor picked up his glass.

Gray looked at Thor seriously, and then looked down at the red wine in his hand, as if he was observing the color of the wine, but in fact he was thinking.

Thor smiled and said, "I'll talk about my side first!"

"You should have seen the current situation in Mida Town, that great flood destroyed everything here, and the Earl gave me the equivalent of a mess! I know that I shouldn't complain about the Earl, but! After taking over the territory, I realized that unless I have enough money, this territory will become a burden to me!"

Gray looked up: "I'm sorry, you know, the situation was complicated!"

Thor shook his head: "These are two different things, Gray! On the other hand, if it weren't for that great flood, I wouldn't have been able to have such a good piece of territory, although this land is still in ruins!"

"Now there is nothing in Mida Town, just to feed more than 10,000 immigrants who have just migrated, it will require a huge amount of expenses! Lord Earl did this on purpose, he wanted those nobles to divide this land, the reason why Fort Gesenburg can be so quiet now is because of the town of Mida as a buffer, do you think Lord Earl's 2,000 soldiers are really just as simple as besieging Harrens City?"

Thor took a sip of the wine from the cup, and after a long breath, said, "This is probably the way I am, a commoner magician, who has become a nobleman, and a territory that is not a threat at all, and the nobles not only do not take me seriously, but instead see me as a fat sheep to be slaughtered by them!

Thor must have been angry with the nobles, and when Gray entered Mida Town, he found that there were many nobles here, and they were like their own family in Mida Town, and they wantonly swallowed up the shops and manors of Mida Town.

"Lord Earl asked me to take Harrence City, and then get engaged to Miss Nesha!" Gray said.

Thor didn't seem surprised, he thought for a while and said: "I think, what I can guess, Baron Mura has already guessed! Lord Earl is too anxious, I was just guessing at first, but he left two thousand soldiers for you, and he didn't want you to bear their supplies, which made many people think about it!"

"Are you saying that Baron Mura is doing this today to sabotage my relationship with Miss Nesha?"

"They are much smarter than you think, even if it weren't for you and Miss Nesha, they would have done it, Lord Earl's attitude is clear, after the capture of Harrens City, have you thought about its ownership?"

Instead of answering the all-too-clear question, Thor asked another sensitive question.

Suddenly, Gray's eyes flashed, and he turned to look at Saul, "Are you saying he's going to give me Harrence City?"

"What's impossible, you know that the territory you rule now is almost more than the territory of Baron Mura and his group combined!"

"Originally, they thought that the Earl would give you the title of Gersenburg, but didn't you notice? In the territory of Harness, all the occupied areas are now under your rule! This signal could not be more obvious, you are in it, and you just didn't react!"

Gray was still a little unconvinced: "Lord Earl is so relieved of me?"

"It's not a matter of trust, Lord Earl sees it very thoroughly, for your own interests, it is impossible for you to join Baron Mura's circle, because the power he gives you can completely compete with their entire circle!

Gray rubbed his temples, "You mean the Earl wants us to fight Baron Mura?"
