The Wellington family fully demonstrated what it means to be wealthy, and their emissaries rushed to Wildwillow City with a huge amount of money, and proposed extremely favorable terms for borrowing. The Buryatia family was so encouraged by the kindness and generosity of the powerful nobles that they were eager to immediately agree to the Duke of Wellington's terms, but Judy was surprised and suspicious, and she wrote a letter to Victor and sent someone to deliver it overnight.

After reading Judy's letter, Vic was speechless for a long time, and he was greatly impressed by the Duke of Wellington's keen determination.

The business model that is familiar to modern people is completely new to the lords of another world. Victor believes that it will be a few years before the lords will find out that they can integrate the resources of their territory through free trade and complete strategic adjustments. At that time, the importance of Yehliu City will undoubtedly be highlighted, and Victor can use this time to calmly lay out, take the lead, formulate trade rules, launch various business models, and finally gain the greatest right to speak. He never expected that the Duke of Wellington would realize the value of Yeliu City so quickly, and spend a huge amount of money to make the layout in advance.

Victor felt familiar to the Duke of Wellington's strategy.

On Earth, developers have the money to buy land, but they don't have the money to build houses, and they sell off-plan properties and build buildings at the same time. The Duke of Wellington took out the funds and took the initiative to play the role of buying a house, and his method was exactly the same as the business model of raising funds for off-plan housing! The difference is that the developer will not be grateful to the buyer, this is just a contract, whether it can be executed or not, but the Buryat family is grateful to the Duke of Wellington, even flattered, this is the influence of the great nobles.

According to the developer's concept, Victor did not want to accept the favor of the Duke of Wellington at all, his appetite was too great.

The Duke of Wellington's vision was precise and calculating, and he grasped the key point at once. If he took over all the shops in Wild Willow City, the Wellington family would dominate the trade in Wild Willow City. In accordance with the traditional aristocratic virtues of generosity, trustworthiness and gratitude, the Buryatia family must be grateful for the generosity of the Wellington family and abide by the agreement between the two parties to lease the shop to each other for 50 years. The Wellington family has obtained the right to operate Yehwillow City for 50 years at the lowest price, and the income from subleasing the shop alone is far more than 100,000 gold soles, I am afraid that it is ten or twenty times as much, and their influence on the market cannot be measured by money.

Victor must admit that it was difficult for him to refuse the Duke of Wellington's sincere offer. The reason lies in the green bricks, to be precise, water conservancy projects.

It was the rock bricks and hydraulic works that tied the Yorks firmly to the Centaur Hills and made them resolutely resist Ant-Man's attack. The brick industry supports water conservancy projects. The Duke of Wellington will not understand the secrets, but his measures will lead to the rapid development of the brick industry.

With the financial backing of the Wellington family, Victor's giant brick kiln will have to be produced at full capacity to meet the market demand for green bricks, and his earth-gathering team will expand from more than 600 people to more than 2,000 people. Based on an average of 300 meters of canals dug per day, in a year's time, a total of 152 kilometers of artificial aqueducts will run through the entire territory of Randall. At this rate, it will take a maximum of 15 years to complete the water conservancy project on the hills.

This is the benefit that the Duke of Wellington brought to Victor. However, the booming brick market raises another thorny problem.

The emergence of giant brick kilns has reduced the production cost of green bricks to the extreme, but the transportation cost will not be reduced. The trend of building a city with green bricks swept the kingdom of Gambis, and the lords followed suit and bought a large number of green bricks. Even if Victor kept the price of bricks low, the lords who were far away from the centaur hills would still find it difficult to afford the high transportation costs. However, the lords could never give up the bricks, and the desire to compare with the huge market profits would prompt them to set their sights on the giant brick kilns.

There are no impermeable walls!

When the lords found out that the giant brick kilns were involved in the construction of water conservancy projects, even the neighbors of the hills could not sit still, even though they were dealers in the green bricks. After the advent of rock bricks, the frenzy of the entire human kingdom will be ignited, and the spies of internal and external forces will flood the hills, and the first thing they need to get is the construction technology of giant brick kilns.

In this case, can the secret of the giant brick kiln be guaranteed? The answer is no!

Victor and the York family were extremely careful when building the giant brick kiln, each craftsman was only responsible for building one part of the giant brick kiln, and never let the same person build different parts. However, the various forces gathered the information they had and gathered the architects to study it, and they were able to restore the internal structure of the giant brick kiln.

Under the contradiction that the promotion of green bricks cannot be fast and can't, Victor proposed to sell the capital and make profits at all levels in order to achieve the purpose of paralyzing the lord, and finally took the initiative to take out the construction technology of the giant brick kiln in exchange for benefits and allies. Sylvia praised Victor's proposal and let him taste the tenderness for days.

Unbeknownst to the Duke of Wellington, his family was already on the list that Victor had wooed. But Victor can't let the Wellington family completely control the shop resources of Yehwillow City.

In fact, the two sides tacitly knew that the Duke of Wellington knew very well that Victor would not agree, and that he was just returning the son.

You know what I need, you made a move to confuse me, but also let me know what you need and what you are doing, then I will give you a move back, let you know that I am qualified to play chess! Yehliu City must remain neutral, you can't monopolize it, and I don't plan to monopolize it, but I'm going to join in! Now, we can discuss.

Victor had to admit that the Duke of Wellington was showing goodwill. This is because, they do not have an intrinsic conflict.

The core interests of the lord lie in the knight resources, with the knight, the family can continue to grow and grow, and without the knight, the family will surely die. Lords expand their territories and earn wealth in order to keep their own knights and attract knights from other families, and the hostile relationship between lords comes from this. Victor even suspected that half of the knights of the three eastern families had fallen into Sylvia's pocket, so she decided to move west and open up the vast Centaur Hill.

Victor has no desire for knights, and his own blood is still the object of aristocratic pursuit. In this sense, Victor has no irreconcilable contradictions with the vast majority of lords. But the large chambers of commerce are exceptions, including Sophia.

In short, Victor decided to respond to the Duke of Wellington's kindness. He replied to Judy with a letter in which he wrote: The Duke of Wellington took out a loan of 150,000, the Buryatia family kept 80,000, and the Randall family took 70,000. Two years later, Yeliucheng repaid 40,000 yuan. In return, the Wellington family was given no more than one-sixth of the shops for a twenty-year lease with the right of first refusal, at a rent determined by Wildwillows. The Randall family will transplant 1 million spiny rue trees in two years, totaling 50,000 acres, and the Renma Hills will also accept 40,000 displaced people from the central and southern territories. At the same time, the Wellington family obtained the green brick franchise in the south-central part of the kingdom, but had to buy the green bricks at Wild Willow City, and the York family guaranteed to provide the Wellington family with the technology to build a giant brick kiln for 10 years.

Victor believed that the Duke of Wellington would agree to these conditions, and that the Buryatia family could see the meaning of the rent decision, not to mention that they had no capital to refuse.

Watching the messenger go away, Victor couldn't help but sigh at the wisdom of the natives, who, with a little guidance, could deduce more content and refine it. This was true not only of the aristocracy, but also of the commoners.

Victor will not forget that Fat Wech only went on a smuggling trip before he figured out the plan for the candied fruit industry, and the best thing is that there is actually a chain store concept in it! Victor really didn't teach Fat Wech, and he didn't even meet him in person......

It's all so smart, how can I mess up!

Victor suddenly felt that his advantage was no longer obvious. However, if the aborigines are all fools, Victor will also be tired and half dead. His wise men have the ability to help him improve the system, as well as various inventions and creations to free him from complicated affairs, and the noble blood can ensure his superior position.

Thinking of this, Victor is full of confidence in the future. But for now, he still has a lot of things to do, such as Emerson and Fishman.

"What? You want pork, not fish! You just said fish...... Well, give you pork. ”

"What? You want purple cane wine, not pork!!"

"You fool caught in the butt of a cow!Do you know what you want?!"

"I ..... I'm stupid?! You stupid fish can curse!"

Emerson is going crazy, this round-headed fish-man has a big head, and he is not as smart as a mouse! I really don't know how they can be considered a smart species!

"That's it!"

Victor was not interested in looking any further, he had basically determined that Emerson was indeed able to communicate with sapient species. The barberry militia next to him dragged the squeaky fishman who was scolding the wizard and threw it into a puddle.

"My lord, the fish-man's mind is too confused, and instinct is greater than wisdom. I...... I did do my best. ”

Imerson looked apprehensively at Victor, who had spent seven days in the hill camp, waiting to show his sorcery to the Lord. However, the fish-man's chaotic mind made the experiment a mess, and he didn't know that the adults were not satisfied with his performance.

Victor smiled and casually comforted, "Mr. Imoson, you have proven your abilities. I'm very happy with your performance. ”

The frightened wizard finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a loud voice, "Thank you, sir!"

"But you want me to shelter you. You'll also need to prove your loyalty. ”

"My lord, I swear allegiance to you to the death! If I break my promise, may my soul fall into the abyss, and bear the scorching flames of the abyss forever!"

Imerson half-knelt on the ground and swore to Victor with the utmost sincerity. Victor said lightly: "No oath can move me." You have to prove your loyalty with deeds!"

"My lord, what do you want me to do?

Imerson was secretly happy that as long as he could serve the adults, he would be accepted. Not only is security guaranteed, but there is also a better life and power. Even a rejected wizard doesn't want to be a wild man for the rest of his life.

"You don't have to know the specifics. Victor paused and said, "You go back to the mountain fortress immediately, Busso will arrange everything, you just need to cooperate with him." ”

"As you wish. My lord. Imerson bowed deeply and said respectfully.

Victor nodded, and then instructed Jack, "Jack, take Mr. Emerson back." ”

Emerson obediently followed Jack towards the door, and after taking two steps, he thought of another thing, turned around and said, "My lord, I haven't seen Bell for days......"

"Rest assured, Bell is safe. She lives on my estate. ”

Emerson pleaded, "My lord, can I live with Bell? I will never reveal your secret!"

Breaking up the father and daughter who depend on each other, Victor can't bear it, but he will never change his attention.

"You're a great father and a wizard, what can you give Bell? keep her chained to you forever, or let her have a normal life?"

"Imoson, I assure you that no matter what you do, Bale will not be implicated. Even if I kill you, I won't hurt her. If you satisfy me, I can let you visit Bell often, that's all. ”

"I understand...... I understand...... It's good for Bell. Imerson shook his head in frustration and asked again, "My lord, can you let me stay at your manor for a few days? even for one night...... Please. ”

Victor shook his head and sighed, "Bell can't speak or write, so I'm willing to take her in and give her a normal life." Unless I cut out your tongue and cut off your limbs, I can trust that you won't reveal my secrets, but without your tongue, you will be worthless!"

"Complete my mission, prove your loyalty, and you can see Bell often. ”

Emerson left the hill camp under the escort of the alchemy militia, looking at the desolate back, Victor's heart was like a stone, he already understood that the kindness of women would only cause more tragedy!

Victor turned around and went to the upper camp, and in a few moments, he arrived at the Alchemy Tower. He took Renault straight to the edge of the Elemental Extraction Table, connecting to the Tower Spirit through his consciousness.

"King!"

"My lord, I'm here. ”

"Tell me about the situation of the soul fire and capital reserves. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

The king said in Victor's consciousness: "695 soul fire points are available, and the remaining funds are 75 gold soles." ”

Victor smiled bitterly, the two alchemy dragon lizards had finally exhausted the reserve funds of the alchemy tower, and he had to run to replenish the funds. He threw two crystals on the elemental extraction table and said, "King, analyze the value of the white crystal and the fire elemental crystal. ”

"Misra Crystal can extract 400 gold soles, and red crystals can lift 800 gold soles. ”

Victor frowned and asked, "Mithril represents the luck of the knights, and the white crystal represents the luck of the church, so why is the fire element crystal so valuable? ”

"I think it's your luck. ”

"Makes sense. ”

Victor took the bag in Renault's hand, poured all the white crystals inside on the elemental extraction table, and ordered: "Here are 400 white crystals, extract them all, make 3 more alchemy dragon lizards, and arrange them to sneak into the mountain fortress!"

"Yes, my lord!" said the king, as he extracted the white crystals, "My lord, 400 Misra crystals extract 160,000 gold soles. Crafting three alchemy dragon lizards costs 150,000 gold soles, 36 soul fires, and 72 hours. ”

"In addition, I would like to remind you that 37 war mastiffs are about to return to the Alchemy Tower. ”

"Damn, I want to make some more alchemy militias!" Victor gritted his teeth and asked, "How much longer?"

"A year. ”

"Well, it looks like I'm going to sacrifice Mithril. Hehe, the fire element crystal really represents my luck. ”

Victor shrugged his shoulders, Busso was refining the Mithril slag in a large furnace, and was expected to get an additional 25 grams of Mithril, all because of the fire elemental crystal.

With the energy crystal, Victor even began to consider whether to let the smuggling caravan enter the kingdom of Seuss and get some Mithril slag back. But he also had a vague feeling that it might be a mistake to drain the knight's luck.
