If Duke Zhuoen made the most regrettable decision in his life, it was to send the future 'iron-blooded general' Bolun to Li Yunyang for free.

And the second thing Duke Zhuoen regretted was to sign a contract with Li Yunyang, in order to provide the ordnance he needed for his future army, he only exchanged 10% of the shares of Huimei Group, and only signed an agreement for 100 years.

Later, after the Huimei Group developed into the trade chamber of commerce that spread all over the continent and made hundreds of millions of dollars a day, Duke Zhuo En seemed to see countless money slipping through his fingers, but he didn't catch it.

Duke Zhuo En didn't remember how much ordnance he provided for Li Yunyang in the end, he only remembered that after Li Yunyang stood in the position that attracted the attention of the world, the height of the Fengqiu Plain had dropped by as much as tens of meters at that time!

Occasionally, Duke Zhuo En would also scold a few times at the same time, why did Li Yunyang start so many wars, and he almost dug up the Fengqiu Plain directly out of the Fengqiu Plain.

But more often, Duke Zhuoen is still looking forward to the end of each year, when he lies on the pile of gold coins and counts the money after Li Yunyang sends the dividends of Huimei Group's shares.

However, neither Li Yunyang, who was the party involved, nor Duke Zhuo En, who inadvertently dug up his gold mine, had not expected this to happen.

Generally speaking, Duke Zhuoen at this time was still half an honest man, and he thought that Li Yunyang might not participate in too many battles in the future, so he patted his chest and said that as long as he had ten percent of the shares, he could provide him with weapons unconditionally for a long time.

And Li Yunyang already had a plan in his heart, and if he could cooperate with Duke Zhuoen, he would be completely pulled into a boat, and it would also be able to deter some ill-intentioned guys in the future.

So Li Yunyang didn't hesitate, and nodded directly: "Thank you so much, as long as you can guarantee the supply of ordnance to all the territories under my command in the future, your lordship, ten percent of the shares of Huimei Group will be yours!

When he said this, Li Yunyang deliberately played a trick, not explaining which territories in his hands would be provided by Duke Zhuoen in the future, but talking about all the territories under his command in general. In this way, even if Li Yunyang's territory increases, he is not afraid of problems in terms of ordnance.

And Li Yunyang then asked, a more important thing, how many years does Duke Zhuo En have to sign an agreement with him?

This sentence immediately attracted Duke Zhuoen's attention, but he came to sign an agreement with Li Yunyang with the idea of taking advantage, so he didn't want to speak directly: "Since I choose to cooperate with Lord Allen, I will show due sincerity, for a hundred years, as long as the Huimei Group still exists during the period, and the Fengqiu Plain is still the territory of my Zhuoen family, this contract will always be effective!"

Hearing the verbal agreement given by Duke Zhuoen, Li Yunyang was afraid that he would regret it, so he hurriedly asked Sujila to get a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and asked Dai Qisi to directly draft the content of the agreement.

After confirming the details of the agreement with Duke Zhuoen, Dai Qisi immediately wrote three copies of the agreement, and Li Yunyang took the lead in stamping his personal seal, which made Duke Zhuoen a little puzzled, but he didn't think much about it, and after seeing that there was no problem with the agreement, he also stamped his lord's seal.

Li Yunyang's idea of stamping a private seal on the agreement is self-evident, that is, in order to expand the territory in his hands in the future, when he needs to ask Duke Zhuo En to provide armaments, he will not find a place to find fault.

Duke Zhuo En, on the other hand, had the idea of taking advantage of it, and did not hesitate, so he signed an agreement with Li Yunyang, although he always felt as if he had forgotten something important, but he always couldn't remember it.

Receiving the agreement that belonged to him into the space ring, Li Yunyang smiled and said to Duke Zhuoen: "Lord Duke, please put away the agreement in your hand, from now on, we will be partners." ”

However, Duke Zhuo En suddenly thought of another question, about the Huimei Group, and asked Li Yunyang: "Lord Allen, if my news is correct, did you give a large number of shares of the group to the lords of several other small territories at the beginning of the establishment of the Huimei Group. ”

"There is such a thing, there are probably more than 30 percent of the shares. Li Yunyang was surprised that Duke Zhuoen was well-informed, but still explained: "That's the case, Lord Duke, at the beginning of the establishment of Huimei Group, it encountered some problems in development, so it ......."

Before Li Yunyang finished speaking, Duke Zhuo En directly interrupted him and said, "Lord Allen, I know what you said, I mean, have you ever thought about taking back some of the shares you gave away?"

As the duke of the empire, although there are many shortcomings, Zhuo En still has some long-term vision. Ever since he learned about the Huimei Group's existence and saw the Huimei Group's powerful ability to attract gold, Duke Zhuoen understood that this emerging group was very likely to develop into a position that was difficult for the large chambers of commerce of the Star Empire to match in the future.

After foreseeing the future development prospects of Huimei Group, Duke Zhuoen did not take advantage of this lion to open his mouth, but only asked Li Yunyang for 10% of the shares, because he was afraid that after the development of Huimei Group in the future, he would fall out with Li Yunyang in terms of interests.

What's more important is that Duke Yu Zhuoen only thought after signing the agreement that there were several small lords in the Huimei Group who took more shares than him, the duke. Duke Zhuoen felt a little embarrassed, so he proposed this proposal to Li Yunyang.

However, Li Yunyang shook his head again and said: "Lord Duke, you must know that in terms of doing business, the most important thing is the word integrity, if I propose to withdraw the shares from them, then ......."

"Integrity?"

Duke Zhuo En snorted coldly, interrupted Li Yunyang's words again, and said in a tone of a person who came over: "The word integrity, it's not like that, I didn't expect you to be such an old-fashioned person, forget it, leave this matter to me, you don't have to interfere!"

Li Yunyang was speechless for a while, not knowing what Duke Zhuo En was crazy about, but at this moment, the nobles and merchants of the small town of Parvas, commanding their servants, carried a mouthful of boxes to the hall of the banquet hall.

After nearly a hundred boxes were neatly arranged in the hall, the elderly nobleman slapped his face, and the servants standing near the boxes lifted the lids of the boxes in an instant.

Colorful light instantly enveloped the entire hall, and the chests were stacked with neat gold bars, silver ingots, and seven-colored jewels, brilliant diamonds, and bright silk satin.

There were even a few boxes full of pictures and porcelain full of quaint atmosphere, Duke Zhuoen originally glanced at them casually, but after seeing the contents of those boxes, he directly pounced from his position.

Quickly ran to the box containing the picture scroll and porcelain, took out a picture scroll of the army on the top, and looked at it for a long time before he said excitedly to Li Yunyang: "Lord Allen, I didn't expect that there is a picture scroll of the era of Julius Caesar on your territory, this is the portrait painted by the emperor when he went out on the last expedition that year, I thought it had been burned, but I didn't expect it to be in your territory!"

Julius Caesar was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Julius Caesar was the first king of the Xingyao Empire, and with his sword and iron cavalry, he directly unified the Xingyao Empire, which was still loose at that time.

Although the emperor has passed away for thousands of years, the folk still circulate his story, legend has it that Julius Caesar after the last expedition, inspired by the gods, comprehended the law of the gods that belong to him, became Caesar's god of war, and entered the realm of the gods.

It's just that this story sounds nonsense to Li Yunyang. Inspired by the gods, I must have been summoned by the Lord, right?

However, it cannot be denied that this Julius Caesar is indeed a legendary figure, relying on the original 300 cavalry, he built such a huge empire and passed it on for thousands of years.

Li Yunyang turned the picture scroll in Duke Zhuoen's hand, unfolded it, and saw that on the picture scroll was a heroic and majestic man wearing silver armor and holding a heavy sword, riding on the back of a huge demonic beast earth dragon, followed by countless warriors who raised their weapons and shouted.

Although the picture is static, Li Yunyang seems to be able to feel the excitement of the people on the painting at that time, but unfortunately no one knows that the picture scroll of this expedition has become the last painting of Julius Caesar before his death.

What's even more unexpected is that this painting actually spread to Li Yunyang's territory, and Li Yunyang can see the ancient Cheng dù of this painting, and from the perspective of the artist's skills, it does not look like a fake painting.

And like Duke Zhuo En, who studied antique art all day long, since he also decided that this painting was genuine, Li Yunyang immediately became interested in this painting and asked him: "Lord Duke, since you said that this painting is true, if I donate it to His Majesty the King, do you think he will directly reduce all the taxes of my Huimei Group?"

Li Yunyang's idea is very simple, since this is the last painting of Julius Caesar during his lifetime, it must have extraordinary significance for the royal family of the Xingyao Empire.

Therefore, Li Yunyang thought that if he donated this painting, would it bring some convenience to the development of his Huimei Group, and it would be of great benefit to Huimei Group.

However, Duke Zhuo En shook his head, glanced at Li Yunyang suspiciously, and said, "Lord Allen, do you really not know what is going on behind this painting? I really doubt that you, as a viscount, have you ever studied court history!"
