Chapter 673: The Third Collaborator
Someone said it nicely, but he still asked the Fa Saint Master who he wanted to introduce.
To this day, he doesn't need to plug in people's stocks, fox and tiger power, to make himself easy to do. Nguyen Van Viet also has the same attitude, he can tolerate a magician with unique skills on an equal footing with him, it does not mean that he will accept other collaborators.
You know, it's time for everyone to discuss. But in terms of actual action, it is inevitable to break up and divide the eldest and the second. If someone who is not strong enough wants to join this game, he will be eliminated in minutes.
Even if he wants to join, he can only put down his body and become the leader of the R&D team, and he is not qualified to become a collaborator. Because he doesn't have the most core technology, he can't invest as much as the Ruan family in terms of money and effort.
However, the candidate mentioned by Babak Abu Nahan made everyone lose their temper. One of the sixteen Grand Dukes of the Gwana Empire, Grand Duke of Kawi, the closest to the holy city of Estali.
"Kaveh Gong is one of the few men in the Imperial Aristocracy that I can look up to. Although he is far away from the center and does not have much power, he must not be underestimated. Not to mention, there were quite a few mines in his dukedom, but many of them had stopped mining now. If you can make effective use of those minerals and make some money, I'm sure he'll be interested. ”
The reason why Ruan Wenyue couldn't have a seizure was because this Grand Duke Kavi was the old patron of the Ruan family's Gia Long Chamber of Commerce. He wants to transport the iron ore produced by the family's mine to the Holy City, and he can't get around the Grand Duke's territory.
You must know that the chamber of commerce in the lost land is actually very similar to the ancient Chinese dart game, in order to transport the darts safely, it is necessary to beat the bandits on the mountains everywhere. If these people are not satisfied, a large number of goods are walking on other people's territory, and it is definitely too good luck not to be robbed, it is normal to be robbed, and it is normal to lose both people and money, and a wave of counter-killing is a prelude to death.
So in such a situation, if the Grand Duke really joined this game, Ruan Wenyue would immediately become the third, and he could only watch the magician and the Grand Duke fight for the eldest and second son, and he himself didn't have to fight for anything.
However, Lin only smiled at Fa Sheng's desire to introduce such a duke and join the business of manufacturing cars. He had seen too much of the kind of young people who had a good-sounding idea and went to those landlords to invest in it, only to be humiliated enough to dig a pit and bury themselves.
Although the Duke is not necessarily such a person, and the Lord of the Law Saint is not a hairless young man, but now that he has not even written a word, there is no need to expect too much. It's not that he is afraid of being disappointed, but whether the Grand Duke joins or not, or whether the Ruan family in front of him really wants to join, the matter of making a car is just an idle move for him.
His purpose was only the car parked outside. What I want to do now is to make that car a little more complete and make it easier for me to travel. The idea of really relying on selling cars to make a big career has long faded.
In fact, since leaving the Great Sage's Tower, he has been wandering for so long, and he has long been able to see some facts clearly. In this era, if you want to build your own magic tower, it's not just a matter of money.
A three- to five-story building, made entirely of magical materials, would require more than a magic sword or a set of full-covered magical armor. With such a large amount of materials, the difficulty lies in the fact that you may not be able to buy all of them if you have money!
Those mage families or inheritances that have accumulated over several generations and are eventually enough to build towers, they will spend so much time, in fact, they are not accumulating the wealth they need, but relying on the efforts of generations to collect the materials they need.
Otherwise, to be honest, from the advent of the forum designed by someone to the present, all the money that has been handled has been saved, and I dare not say that I can buy all the materials for building a three-story magic tower, at least it is not a problem to build one or two floors. But even if you really save that much money, the reality is that there is nowhere to throw money if you want to.
People who are desperate to buy specific goods in large quantities in the market and put them on the earth are not extorted as fat sheep, then there are ghosts. Midi is no better in this regard. Even if they don't get knocked out, no one will hoard materials that can build magic towers, and they will have to be transported from afar. The shipping fee cannot be absorbed by the Chamber of Commerce, and it will naturally be added to the selling price.
Even if you want to build a tower in the Borderlands, you need to transport the materials you need to the construction location, and you need someone to help build it. If a magician with too shallow foundation encounters someone who stumbles in the process, let alone building a magic tower, it is still a question of whether he can return to the civilized world alive.
In other words, if you don't have the power to support yourself to build a tower, even if you accumulate the funds you need in this life, you can still only look at a pile of gold coins.
As for using that money to fight for the inheritance of the ownerless towers where the owners of the towers have passed away? According to an inhumane source, Gaybrash Tripwood has been blacklisted by the Wizards' Guild. The inheritance of the tower, in any case, could not have fallen to him. The incomprehension of the Great Sage's Tower made these people full of vigilance.
Anyway, there are no certain rules of the game regarding the choice of inheritance, and it all depends on who the local distinction will be assigned to, that is, who will inherit it. It is very difficult to find a magic tower like the Great Sage Tower at the beginning, which has been empty for a few years and is disgusted by ghosts. If you want to pick up the leak again, the chances are slim.
Perhaps, the end of his life is in the holy city of Estali. Someone thought so.
After wandering for a few years, I finally decided on one thing, I was a homebody. The life of 'the world is so hot, I want to go and see everywhere' is really not suitable for me.
But this is not the time for someone to think nonsense. After Nguyen Van Viet decided to join the automotive business, he had already started negotiations with Lim on the initial plan. He will actively do this, which can be regarded as a precautionary measure.
Despite his good reputation, Grand Duke Kaveh was a nonchalant personality in his own right. But how could a ducal family not cultivate a shrewd and capable auxiliary family to become a steward, a deacon, and a person who took care of the family property. Those people were released to do business, and their wrist skills were all predator-level figures.
If Grand Duke Kaveh is really interested in the automobile business, before the Grand Duke officially joins, he will first discuss some conditions with the magician in front of him, decide on the distribution of benefits, and even start the plan. It's also a natural alliance to fight against the powerful man who suddenly joined.
It is not so that the Grand Duke can dominate everything as soon as he comes forward, swallow all the benefits, and he can only be reduced to the end of working in vain. If you want to make any changes to the arrangement that has already been initiated, you must first consider whether it will destroy the established plan and cause overall losses. Not to mention the brutal intervention that would only provoke public anger.
Of course, the magicians present could see such thoughts. Even Ruan Van Viet will more or less reveal the meaning of wooing in his words. In this regard, Lin was noncommittal. Anyway, it's an idle move, as long as you don't get kicked out of the game, you won't care too much about how far you can go.
However, these two Ruan brothers, once they started business negotiations, the two of them just sang with a white face and a black face, and their skills were so skillful, it was not the first time that they thought about this kind of thing. The most valuable thing is that you will feel pressure in your speech, but you will not feel disgusted.
If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that I would be dizzy by this series of offensives. But for Lin, anyway, he is impatient to invest too much effort in this, and it is understandable to let the other party do more, and it is understandable to make profits.
But the key part, I still have to handle it. There is nothing in this world that is not earned, thinking that only money, not contribution, and nothing else, just sit and wait to collect the money, and sooner or later it will be eaten and wiped clean.
When the first round of negotiation is over, it's time for the banquet to end. After all, the pace of life in the lost land is not as rapid as that of the advanced metropolises on Earth, and except for some research that cannot be interrupted, no one will fight for work. So after Ruan Wenyue agreed to visit his home tomorrow and discuss the follow-up content, everyone ended today.
On the return trip, of course, someone still drove the half-finished car, stepped on the accelerator and drove away under the envious gaze of a group of young people.
The magician who was invited to the banquet was single, so he came and went like the wind. The others, who were with their families, said they were leaving, and the waiters in charge of the drive were in a hurry. Pull the horse out of the stable and put it on the cart. Then in order of status, whoever can get in the car and leave first will have to wait a little longer. But busy is busy, or orderly in chaos.
Whether it is Fa Sin Babak Abu Nahan and his friends, students, or members of the Nguyen family of the Gia Long Chamber of Commerce, they all have a place in the holy city. They borrowed this aristocratic mansion just to hold a banquet.
At the helm of one of the Nguyen family branches, Nguyen Van Viet and his brother Nguyen Van Chao left in the same carriage. Outside the car were two rows of armed guards who trotted and followed, and the two brothers sat firmly in it.
When the carriage drove away from the aristocratic mansion, Ruan Van Zhao, who had been holding back his words, finally spoke and asked, "Big brother, why don't you insist on setting that center near our mine?" ”
"Why do you have to do this?"
"On our turf, we have the say. If the magician isn't convinced, just kick him out. Just a magician, what qualifications do you have to negotiate with us? ”
"If all he had was a car in his hands, I'd consider doing the same thing as you. But have you ever thought about what else he has in his hands, airships, ship knives, printing presses, and even his technology to transform magic towers, each of which has considerable benefits. If you do this, it will be equivalent to cutting off the possibility of other cooperation, isn't it? ”
