After Meng Han left, Archduchess Catherine summoned her ministers and announced a cooperation agreement with the Dark Empire of the Light Empire. Hearing His Majesty's announcement, the ministers were all dumbfounded. No one can believe it, could it be that the Empire of Light and the Empire of Darkness, which have always been fanatical, have changed their personalities?
The next thing to be announced is the national debt plan, Catherine suddenly appeared, as long as there is Meng Han, there is nothing that cannot be solved. As long as this money can be raised, the principality will get a huge opportunity to exhibit, which is not the concept of Meng Han's territorial exhibition, but a comprehensive promotion. As soon as he thought of this, Archduke Catherine couldn't help but feel excited, and the dream of the empress in his heart became more real.
Between becoming the empress and becoming Meng Han's wife, Catherine chose to become the empress without hesitation. Although this was just an opportunity, Catherine still felt that she felt more satisfied than directly becoming Meng Han's wife. Catherine was not an easy woman to satisfy, and her ambition was even stronger than Meng Han.
Meng Han on the way home didn't care about these things, no matter how Catherine was, she still needed his help, and she clearly knew that no matter what she became, it would be too easy for Meng Han to destroy it. Neither of them had the feeling of fear that the other would betray, but they worked together very happily.
Meng Han now can't wait to meet Grace, to meet Nicole, to see the head of the Grand Duke of Milan. No one can design Meng Han without paying a price, and the Grand Duke of Milan is the first one who jumped out in a hurry. Meng Han really wanted to see what kind of expressions those guys who participated in the conspiracy with the Grand Duke of Milan to calculate him had when they heard that the Grand Duke of Milan's head was missing.
When the griffin guards appeared in the sky above the Golden City, all the people in the Golden City, as long as they were not blind, immediately knew that the lord of the city had returned from a trip outside. However, no one immediately ran to bother the city lord, and everyone knew that Baron Grace, the chief administrator of the Golden City, was the first person the city lord wanted to see after he returned. At this time, if you go to block the Marquis, it is not happy to find it yourself, and if you are not happy to find the Marquis in the Golden City, it is better to find death for yourself.
Grace and Nicole came together, but after seeing Meng Han, they had different reactions, Grace just called an adult opposite Meng Han very respectfully, but Nicole knelt directly on the ground and called the master. Then, Nicole crawled to Meng Han's side and didn't speak again.
"Nicole, good job. Meng Han reached out and gently patted Nicole's tender face and praised it. Nicole just fell to her knees and didn't say much.
"Where's that guy's head? I'm going to see what he looks like. After praising Nicole, Meng Han asked directly about that level. Nicole didn't dare to slack off, and left quickly, returning in a moment, holding a tray in both hands, and a lifelike level was placed on the tray.
The veteran killer has a professional method of how to save the level, and now it looks as if the head of the Grand Duke of Milan has just been cut off, and there is not even a trace of panic on his face.
"But that's it!" Meng Han stared at the head, shook his head and asked, "Nicole, are you hurt?"
"No, master!" replied Nicole quickly, feeling a slight heat in her heart. In the past, when KAO killed people to make money, who asked her, and who cared about whether she was injured or not. Meng Han's just a light sentence made Nicole feel more sense of belonging.
"Find a conspicuous place and hang it, and say that you are killing a thief who is stealing from the city, as an example. Meng Han thought about it and commanded directly.
"Yes, master!" Nicole picked up the tray and sped away.
Meng Han's arrangement is a bit of a cover-up, as long as you have seen the Grand Duke of Milan, you will definitely be able to recognize that this is the head of the Grand Duke of Milan. However, Meng Han didn't admit it, and others didn't dare to identify it, but he could teach a lesson to those with bad intentions in a more intuitive way. Even Gui, the Grand Duke of Milan, can easily lose his head when hiding in the heavily guarded palace of the Duke. No matter who wants to use Meng Han's brain, it is best to think about whether they can bear the consequences of being retaliated against.
"My lord, during your absence, everything is normal in Golden City. Seeing Nicole leave, Grace reported to Meng Han with a smile, but her eyes were full of joy of reunion. Meng Han didn't wait for her to finish, he reached out and pulled her into his arms, put her on his lap and sat down, and then said, "With you, I can put a hundred and twenty hearts." ”
"There are still a lot of people who want to join Golden City and are asking when the third round of land auctions will be held. Grace was fascinated by Meng Han's active intimacy, snuggled tightly in Meng Han's arms, and reported to Meng Han in this comfortable posture.
"Inform them that in three months' auction, there will be more land this time, and those vacant lots in the city, leave a hundred good locations, and take them all out. Meng Han thought about it and made a decision. There is a lot of open space in the Golden City, and if you put it away, Meng Han wants to invest in the Empire of Light and the Empire of Darkness, and he has to accumulate a large amount of gold coins again. Moreover, if you want to promote banking, you must not lack gold coins.
The urban area of the Golden City basically refers to the most densely populated distribution of those Rank 8 Raging Tree Men in Meng Han, and these places have always been the dream of all those who want to settle here. As long as there is such a piece of land, it means that his own safety is also under the protection of the Marquis Antonio. The last surprise attack had already killed everyone, and the Golden City was definitely safer than any city in the world. There could be no one else who could move the inhabitants of this place except the Marquis himself.
As for Meng Han's credibility, most people will choose to believe it. It seems that the Marquis himself has never done anything that does not count, whether in business or politics. Even if he asked someone to bring someone's head back in anger, and someone's head disappeared, the Marquis's words, even when he was angry, still counted.
When the news was released, at least thousands of people cheered in unison. In the same way, more people have begun to silently mobilize funds, and the lord has already said that this is the last batch, and all of them will be taken out, if it can't be auctioned again this time, there will be no chance in the future. No one wants to let go of this opportunity, and many rich and noble people have even kept a low profile recently, for fear of offending people inexplicably and attracting sniping at the auction.
The auction is imminent, and when everyone is gearing up to fight for a good location, Meng Han is also preparing. Security and prosperity alone are not enough to make land prices even higher, he must make the Golden City a city with more character than just these two things.
Convenience is normal, in the Golden City, there are commercial areas everywhere, there is nothing that cannot be bought here, the three major guilds, all have branches here, plus a large business and mercenary team, there are people who can do everything properly. There are even temples of the Church of Light and the Church of Darkness here, and if you count the elves and dwarves, there is nothing that cannot be found in the Golden City.
Noble, elegant, and artistic, this is Meng Han's new positioning for the Golden City. Meng Han wants all those who own land here, even when they go out, to be proud of owning the land here. Let those who don't have land try to squeeze in. The hundred pieces of vacant land that Meng Han deliberately left behind were prepared for these people. However, when the time comes, it will be impossible to have an admission ticket to the Golden City without a certain grade and a certain wealth.
"The reason why Rolls-Royce is noble is because ordinary people can't buy it, and people with status don't buy what they can choose freely, but what the seller gives him is what it is. Meng Han couldn't help but give an example to point out to Grace: "Our plot is the same, what you can't buy is a good thing." ”
Although she didn't know what Rolls-Royce was, Grace would never be disappointed in this trivial issue, nodding her head in the teachable, but not forgetting to enjoy the warmth in Meng Han's arms.
There are many dignitaries and nobles, so they will naturally appear noble. However, elegance and art are not something that can be achieved casually. Meng Han thought about it, and after arranging the affairs at hand, he went to visit Claudia and Lydia again.
"What do you want us to do?" Claudia and Lydia are still immersed in their art world, and they are very happy about Meng Han's arrival, not only because Meng Han is their bosom friend and their lover, but also because Meng Han can have more artistic inspiration.
"The pursuit of art cannot be done by the two of you alone. Meng Han said with a smile: "Are you interested in opening an art school, so that the members of your song and dance troupe can be teachers, as long as you want to learn music and dance, you can enter this school and learn from you? ”
"Of course!" In addition to pursuing art, the promotion of art is also pursued by the two women, otherwise they would not be touring around. Meng Han's words simply provided them with an excellent opportunity, and the two women were so excited that they almost jumped up, how could they not agree.
"In addition to art school, I also want to run a pure academy for professional academic research. Meng Han once again put forward his request: "If you know any scholars, you can introduce them and act as teachers, and I will give them the best treatment here, and at the same time fund their research in their respective fields." ”
If you want to improve the taste of the city, the first thing to improve is the taste of culture and art, and it is the most convenient and fast thing to hold a higher education institution. What Meng Han wants to do is to build the Golden City into a new financial center integrating culture, art and commerce.
