Section 70 Business

"Don't tell me about unprofitable elven artifacts, or high-risk slave trade. Ashrufat asked suspiciously.

"Of course not, Ashrufat, I finally found my chance today. Ah Jin drank the drink in one gulp, patted his chest hard, and looked like a majestic mountain and river. "Really good opportunity. ”

"What kind of good opportunity?" this time it was not Ashrufat who was questioned, but Rhodia. To be honest, it is indeed rare for Ah Jin to look so happy and proud.

Very few men are willing to refuse the request of a beautiful woman, even Ah Jin is no exception.

"That's right, Ashrufat, Lady Rhodia, you should know it...... In recent years, the church has also been trying to raise funds. It is said that the main purpose is to restore the main temple of Oren City, which was destroyed by the greenskins...... and nurturing new people. Ah, I don't know if that's true, but at least they've always said it. Ah Jin said. "But the means by which the church raises money...... One of them is the massive sale of all kinds of magical artifacts. ”

"Hurry up and get to the point, Ah Jin. Ashrufat reminded.

"It's actually quite simple, in recent years, magical communication has been used more and more frequently, especially in commerce. But after all, the number of mages is too small, so usually, everyone uses the teleportation scroll instead. Most of the transmission scrolls were made by the church. But the church ...... It's not so easy to deal with that people don't realize that there is a huge business opportunity in it. ”

"Ah, what do you mean......" Ashruphat immediately understood Akin's thoughts.

"That's right. As soon as I realized that this was a huge business opportunity, I immediately went to the door today to find the respected high priest of Eagle Falcon City. I bought all the communication scrolls produced by the entire Gruni Church in one fell swoop and the right of first refusal for the next three years...... Hey, at a very good price...... And this cooperation will go even further, and soon I will be acting as an agent for the whole Church in this regard, throughout the Anthropocene......"

"Wait, Ah Jin...... Are you planning to hoard Juqi?"

"Hi, Ashrufat, what are you talking about. I'm just returning a grossly undervalued commodity to its original value. There was no trace of shame on Ah Jin's face. "Ashrufat, and Lady Rhodia, tell you that this is a good deal. Gruni was in turmoil...... In the event of unrest, the importance of intelligence is self-evident. When the time comes, whoever is there will have to be ...... from my hands."

"Wait, Akin, what are you talking about, the commotion is happening?" Ashrufat interrupted Akin's triumphant declaration.

"Don't you know what to do?Ashrufat, last night, General Paul of the Guards Corps died of a sudden illness...... Although it is claimed, it is said that he was poisoned by some kind of poison...... Ha Luha, now, the buffer between the two potential forces is gone...... With the command of the Guards Corps as the focus, I am afraid that a dragon battle is about to be staged. The spies on both sides must have gone back and forth. In the event of civil unrest, communication within the Chamber of Commerce must be communicated through magic...... Hey...... Countless teleportation scrolls will be consumed...... I'll be rich then......"

"Wait, Ah Jin, haven't you thought about ...... What would you have done if the turmoil hadn't happened?" asked Rhodia this time. Ashrufat was silent on the side, but Ah Jin was in the middle of the spring breeze at this time, so he didn't notice the change in Ashrufat's expression.

"Ahh "Originally, the number of communication scrolls consumed by the major chambers of commerce every year has been steadily increasing. But for this kind of thing, the inventory of each chamber of commerce is not too much, and it will not be exhausted in more than half a year at most. Besides, even if they don't use it, don't we have a good place to sell it? The Stygia region is a great market for the future, and there is also a riot going on there. ”

"Stirgia is in turmoil too?" Ashruphat asked. "Ah Jin, where the hell did you inquire about the news? ”

"An infallible channel. Ah Jin replied with a smile. "Well, since we're friends, I'm going to share this secret with you. I learned this from a knight from the region of Styya. That one is a true knight, and his words are infallible. ...... of the five countries in the Stygian region Casillos and San Jean...... Seeing that a civil war is about to begin, at least it is also turbulent. They're going to need these teleportation scrolls. ”

"For what?" asked Rhodia, curiously. "I still remember...... Well, the book also says that the royal family of Cassilos and St. Jean has become a family through marriage...... This is actually not the most important thing, the most important thing is that in the previous war with Paro, the royal families of the two countries were almost completely wiped out, and only one princess was left to inherit the throne of the two countries. But that queen is an adult, and it's completely different from the situation in our country. Besides, it was the queen who won the war with Paro...... If there is no heir crisis, then why can a country be in turmoil?"

"You don't understand that. Ms. Rhodia, five national ...... in the Stygia region Well, with the exception of Paro, perhaps, there is a great deal of emphasis on virtue, honor, and vows...... Therefore, the knights there are very popular in the mercenary market...... Especially as a bodyguard......"

"How can there be turmoil in a place of honour and oath, and if every nobleman obeys his duties and not his ambitions, as he says this, Rothea even sighs slightly, then what power can shake a country within?"

"Because, of course, the young queen herself has deviated from her oath and honor. Akinha laughed. "There are not all wise people in this world. In fact, this story is very interesting, and the origin of the matter is the previous war with Paro. At one point in that war, the queen was in extreme danger and was pursued by the enemy. ”

Ah Jin said proudly, and when he spoke, both Eshurufat and Rhodia listened attentively.

"In that crisis, a veteran ...... It was an ordinary soldier who volunteered to stay behind at a critical moment. This is a mortal mission. Needless to say, in that case any monarch must reward the brave man for his bravery, otherwise how could he have his subordinates serve him faithfully? ”

"Canonized as a knight?" asked Rhodia, puzzled. "That's a suicide mission!"

"Oh, Lady Rhodia, the customs of that place are different from ours. In the Stygia region, it is almost impossible for ordinary people to become knights. The knights there are not of our type, they all have real fiefdoms...... Anyway, it just happened, the veteran had waited long before he died, and our princess managed to escape the pursuit thanks to the heroic sacrifice of her men. But then, I don't know if she forgot about it, or what happened, but it ended until the end of the war, and the princess won a complete victory, and the matter was not mentioned again. But I don't know who spread the news out of Lu Dao...... Anyway, a few years later, the veteran's family ...... It seems to be a son, and he finally found the princess and asked for a reward. ”

"That's fair. Rhodia commented. "That princess should be going to make good on her promise, right?"

"Hah...... Quite the opposite. I guess the princess was probably so caught up in the stage that she couldn't get off the stage, or she felt shameless to admit that she had forgotten about it...... Anyway, she denied it. You know, in that case...... The family member...... Well, it's bad luck. He was immediately hanged on charges of deceit, offending the monarch. ”

"Well, and then what?"

"And so things became irreparable. Next, the veteran's other son finally found irrefutable evidence of the truth. In other words, it proved that his brother was unjustly killed by the queen. His father died defending the Queen, who not only refused to honor the promise of a reward, but also wrongfully killed his brother. ”

"It's terrible. Rhodia pouted.

"To make matters worse, it was made known to passers-by. In a kingdom that values virtue, honor, and oaths and sees them as the foundation of nationhood...... Something so bad happened...... The situation is far more serious than anyone expected. Ah Jin said. "This is almost a public proof that the queen is not worthy of being king. ”

"That's right. ”

"So, despite being by blood, that queen has an indisputable inheritance. But what she did made her lose the legitimacy of her rule. St. Jean and Casillos became distant, and more than one knight openly stated that he did not accept such a queen as a monarch...... So the queen completely lost the hearts of the people. Careerists of all kinds (ambition is like weeds, it breeds when the conditions are right) have risen one after another. The princes of all parts of the country supported their own troops, and the queen's decree could not get out of the royal city...... Speaking of which, it's worse than our Grunney...... Hey, Ashrufat, what's wrong with you?"

"I didn't ...... It's nothing. Ashrufat replied reluctantly. "But, Ah Jin, you're hoarding teleportation scrolls for profit at this juncture...... Isn't it...... Is it considered to take advantage of the fire to rob and make a fortune?"

"What, Ashrufat, do these upheavals have anything to do with me? Did I cause them, and if I didn't do anything, would it make things better?" called Akin. Obviously, the answer is no. In other words, there is no causal relationship between my wealth and the turmoil in my country. In that case, why don't I take the opportunity to make a profit?"

"Although you say so, Ah Jin, it seems that there are still a lot of risks involved. "Rhodia is more objective. "For example, there will not necessarily be real unrest in the Stygia region. If that queen chooses to abdicate and marry, marry a suitable man...... Be willing to be a queen, then the source of this turmoil will be removed. In our country, for example, if the Duke of Byron and General Rafa reach an agreement (although unlikely, but not absolutely impossible), then the source of unrest in our country will also be removed. ”

"That's right. Ah Jin said. "What if something like this happens...... I don't have anything to lose. At best, it has gone from a 'very profitable transaction' to an 'ordinary transaction'. I'm going to set up a brand new chamber of commerce for this...... I'm the president, the public offering. You see, there is definitely no profit in subscribing to shares from me. It's a rare opportunity, for the sake of friends, I'll give you all a ninety-fifty discount......"

"How much is a share?" said Rhodia seemingly casually.

"The old rule, 50,000 gold oli a share. The total investment is about 1 million gold orioles, divided into 20 shares. You won't lose money buying shares from me! And only today, if you miss today, you won't have a chance! Because tomorrow I will go public, and when the time comes, it will definitely be sold out immediately......

"Okay, I'll subscribe...... Two strands. Rhodia smiled and said. "What about you, Mr. Esseurofat?"

"Whatever, just have three or five shares. "Ashrufat was actually thinking about other things, so he said this casually. But Ah Jin's eyes immediately lit up.

"Ishrufat, you are indeed ...... ......The real person doesn't show his face! In fact, I have known for a long time that you are a rich man, otherwise how could you not be interested in the good deals I introduced earlier......?
