Sean said "righteously" while releasing the holy light energy in his body.
In an instant, holy light erupted from Sean's back, and his whole person shone like a god from the Kingdom of God, making people afraid to look directly at him.
Hearing Sean's words, cousin Isabel cast an appreciative look, and Daniel even lowered his head in shame:
"But you saved me, I...I..."
Daniel didn't know what to say for a moment.
Sean rolled his eyes and smiled:
"Daniel, if you really want to repay me, just return the 30,000 gold coins you signed the contract to me yesterday when you have money in the future!"
"No problem!" Daniel replied immediately.
30,000 gold coins per life is indeed a friendly price.
…
After hearing Sean's words, Earl Powell's expression changed as he stood next to him.
Now Daniel has almost nothing, and he will definitely take the 30,000 gold coins from Port Kapur in the future. Isn't this a disguised form of harming the interests of their family?
Sean was very aware of Powell's concerns, so he walked to him:
"Earl Powell, you must be worried that these 30,000 gold coins will cause losses to your family, right?"
Powell didn't answer, which was regarded as acquiescence.
Sean smiled: "Let's go, I will take you to Hetan Town and you will understand that not only will this not cause losses to your family or Port Kapur, but you will make a lot of money!"
After Sean finished speaking, he took Powell and Daniel out of the castle and walked outside.
...
...
Khadgar made one point at last night's meeting:
To control Port Capul, the most important thing is not to airborne Isabel and Daniel, but to tie Powell's Eagle family to the chariot.
As long as the Eagle family is controlled and assisted by Daniel and Isabel, Kapur Port will not fall into the hands of Alexander Lane.
So Sean's most important job today is to convince Powell and bring the Eagle family to his side.
…
After leaving the castle, Sean led several guests towards the soap workshop. As Sean walked, he said to Powell:
"Earl Powell, you didn't sleep last night. You must have been thinking about the future of your family, right?"
Powell nodded and said nothing.
"Then let me help you analyze it!" Sean smiled:
"Actually, there are only two paths before you. The first path is to turn to Alexander Lane and become his pawn; the second path is to continue to follow the Violet family..."
Before Sean could finish speaking, Isabel, who was walking behind the two of them, stared and said:
"Hmph! He dares to choose the first option?"
Powell trembled when he heard Isabel's words, and hurriedly smiled and said:
"Your Excellency Isabel, of course I am loyal to the Violet family and will not have any rebellious intentions!"
Powell still hasn't said a word. Since he has thoughts of rebellion, he can't say it, right?
Sean couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"Cousin, it's useless to threaten you like this. We have to convince the Eagle family based on real interests. Otherwise, even if they obey now, they will suddenly rebel and stab us at a critical moment in the future."
Powell said something like "I will never rebel", but in his heart he recognized Sean very much and couldn't help but look at Sean.
Sean organized his thoughts and continued to say to Powell:
"Let me do an analysis with you!
Let’s start with the overall situation. Domestically, the Violet family and Alexander Lane are evenly matched; but abroad, our family has the support of the Kingdom of Anjou. Am I right?”
Powell sighed: "Indeed, after all, behind the 'Lane Spring' that led to the destruction of the Lane family was the shadow of the Duke of Camellia of the Kingdom of Anjou. It is impossible for the Kingdom of Anjou to support the resurgent Lane family."
Sean nodded:
"In the short term, if your family falls to Alexander Lane and the Kingdom of Anjou decides to unite with Lord Alex to launch another 'Lane Spring', Port Caple will become a war front;
But if you are on our side, Alexander Lane will definitely not dare to attack Kapur Port rashly. After all, there is Delphi Fortress to the north to contain it.
No matter how you think about it, having your family on our side is the best choice!"
While Sean and the others were talking, they had already reached the center of the town. Sean asked his men to bring over the best-selling soap, as well as more valuable perfume, spirits, weapons made by the dwarf master, etc.
…
Earl Powell did not notice this and sighed worriedly:
"I have considered what you said, but you may not know Kapur Port.
The main reason why the Port of Caple is prosperous is that it can trade goods from the Principality of Lane with the Kingdom of Anjou.
For example, the specialty magic cores and furs of monsters from Yonn City, weapons and equipment made by Vernes, gold, gems, magic crystals from Palomia, etc. are very popular in the Kingdom of Anjou."
In the middle of speaking, Powell leaned into Sean's ear and continued to whisper:
"Your Highness Sean, you may not know that a very large gold mine was discovered in Palomia! The gold reserves of the entire principality are already twice that of the Kingdom of Anjou, and the area of ​​the Kingdom of Anjou is seven times larger than ours.
That’s why the Angevin people have always called us ‘the country sitting on gold’, which is why the Angevin Kingdom wanted to attack us some time ago.”
…
After hearing Earl Powell's words, Sean suddenly realized.
In fact, he had discovered this problem a long time ago, that is, the price of gold in the Principality of Lane is very cheap.
A gold coin weighs 6 grams, and an ordinary worker can earn 24 grams of gold in a month. This was unimaginable in ancient times!
Now he understands, it seems that the problem lies not only in the difficulty of mining (a sky-level expert can lift the surface and directly expose the gold mine below), but also in the huge gold reserves.
...
Ahem, I seem to be off topic.
Sean came back to his senses and said to Powell:
"Then what you're saying is that if you side with us, the specialties of the three cities in Palomia will not flow out of Kapur Port, and the economy of Kapur Port will plummet, right?"
"Alas! Who says it isn't?" Powell sighed again:
"If the Port of Caple is owned by Alexander Lane, the goods from the three cities will still flow out of the Port of Caple, and the Kingdom of Anjou will not say no. But if it follows the Violet family, there may be a big crisis of cutting off supply! I said yesterday
I didn’t sleep a wink all night because of this matter.”
Sean nodded. It turned out that this issue was what Powell was most worried about.
However, Sean has helped him think of a new path:
"It's okay, Earl Powell, we just experienced temporary difficulties. However, I have a new method that can temporarily help you overcome the difficulties."
