"The silk comes from Huangsha Town?" When the Marquis got the news, he couldn't even believe his ears. However, it was his son, Viscount Francis, who was responsible for reporting, and Francis had been paying attention to Bai Yaojing quarrying.
of field business.
As a great nobleman, even the Marquis himself was shocked by the small amount of silk he got. Such a small roll of silk was actually worth hundreds of gold coins. However, there was no way.
This extremely expensive silk was passed down from other principalities, and the cost of changing hands has been added up several times.
However, such luxurious things are actually products produced in this country, and the reason why they have to be purchased from other principalities is because Huangsha Town is completely blocked by Stormwind City. As far as he knows, silk is in Huangsha
Town, they just sell it at a constant price, and the same weight of gold coins is exchanged for the same weight of silk. Now the Marquis is a little regretful, why did he not be optimistic about the little baron at that time, and lend a hand to him when he needed it? Otherwise, the sky-high price difference would be
It will fall directly into your pocket.
"We all underestimated Baron Antonio." The Marquis could only say this in hindsight as a conclusion.
"Yes, Father." Francis felt the same annoyance in his heart. In just a few months, the frenzy caused by silk was almost unbelievable. As for how many gold coins the silk produced in Huangsha Town was exchanged for, it is estimated that people can listen.
You will faint after arriving. Huangsha Town, now almost as Meng Han said, is about to become a golden town.
"Also, father, the Bai Yao Jing toilet is no longer in stock." In addition to telling the Marquis this time, Francis came here for another very important reason. The Bai Yao Jing toilet is now available from Meng Han.
The inventory has been exhausted, but there are still countless nobles waiting for Francis to install new bathrooms in their homes.
Everyone thought that White Yao Crystal was just a relatively valuable stone deposit, but no one thought that it would be so difficult to mine. The branch of the Mercenary Guild that took over the quarry took a long time to mine it, but they had to ask for help.
Francis requested that they give them some toilet samples for them to copy. The most important thing is that during the period of copying, there was no supply.
The same group of quarrymen could not make the same thing, which simply made Francis unbelievable. He had learned about it once before leaving Huangsha Town through Donald Butler, and all the people hired by Bruce were from Huangsha Town.
How could such a situation happen to the quarry workers in Uehara?
"Adrian, the Lord of Stormwind City, has concealed many things." When Bruce reported to the Mercenary Guild, he directly came to this conclusion: "The hesitation of Adrian's concealment resulted in a waste of time in the process of mining the White Yao Crystal.
After a lot of effort, not only could I not make the finished toilet immediately, but I also offended an official magician."
When he thought of the huge silk profits, from Huangsha Town to Twilight City and then spread to various places, there were actually more than seven times the profit, the Marquis simply wanted to call Adrian, who had blocked Huangshazha, directly in front of him.
Strangling to death. Unfortunately, although Adrian's treatment of Meng Han was not ordered by the Marquis, it also happened with his tacit approval. Meng Han is definitely not a fool, how could he not think of this? If he wants to repair the relationship with Meng Han, he must
Not that easy.
This matter is not only depressing for the Marquis, but even more depressing for His Majesty the King of the Principality and the great magicians at the Magic Academy. Ever since Meng Han had the idea of making silk, or strictly speaking,
After being blocked by Adrian, they no longer provided magic scroll bases to the Magic Academy. It was originally thought that in a few months, Huangsha Town would be unable to sustain due to the blockade, and Meng Han had to ask them for help. Who
Unexpectedly, Meng Han actually used silk as a killer weapon.
The reason why His Majesty the King is depressed is because the huge tax revenue behind the huge profits from the silk trade has benefited other principalities in vain. It is obviously a product within his own principality, but after traveling through the Silk Road to the Twilight City,
It gave others an advantage. And all this was just because none of them expected that little Baron Antonio, who was already a useless magic weapon, would have such a crazy ability to make money.
While countless people regretted it, Adrian, the Lord of Stormwind City, had a completely different mood. Recently, the people of the Mercenary Guild had repeatedly expressed their dissatisfaction with concealing their facts. With the conscience of heaven and earth, he, the Lord of the City,
How was it possible to know that Huangsha Town hired people with twice the salary? How was it known how difficult it was to mine the White Yao Crystal? How was it possible to know that the mining process required the help of a magician? I originally thought that I would recover my investment immediately after selling out half of the profits, but I didn’t expect it.
In addition to being complained by partners, the only news is that they have continued to invest more. So far, not a single copper coin has been seen without comment, and a lot of offers have been made.
The loss of the money invested is a trivial matter. What makes Adrian even more sad is that he clearly grabbed a lot of silk from some mercenaries who came from Huangsha Town at the beginning, but because of his ignorance, he directly let those soldiers completely
It was a waste. According to the current market value of silk, the direct loss would be thousands of gold coins. Adrian felt heartbroken when he thought of such a large amount of wealth flowing away in front of his eyes.
Heartache is heartache, but if compared with another thing, it is nothing. Lord Adrian now knows how much wealth Meng Han has made in the silk business, and such a fortune,
If Meng Han is willing, he can definitely use gold coins to smash himself to death. Even if he is protected by the great swordsman Austin, he will be able to prevent stronger people from causing trouble for him because of the massive gold coins.
Worry about his own life is what makes City Lord Adrian sleepless. As the days pass, Adrian becomes more and more fearful. Even now, City Lord does not even dare to step out of his own mansion.
He was afraid that any stranger on the street might be the assassin who accepted Meng Han's gold coins and came to kill him.
Letters asking for help have been sent three times, but until now, his backstage has not said a word or expressed a word of support for him. The suffering of waiting has made the Lord Adrian become more and more frightened, and everything is in danger before his eyes.
Not even a stranger can appear, otherwise it will cause the city lord to have a hysterical attack.
"Is there any way to make Mr. Antonio give up his prejudice against us?" After discovering his previous decision-making errors, the Marquis immediately put forward suggestions to restore relations. He was not as familiar with Antonio as Francis, so he could only ask himself
Son. If I had known this, if I had only supported Meng Han once when he was helpless, he would definitely be making a lot of money now. Unfortunately, he is another guy who wanted to take the regret medicine but didn't.
"His quarry was forcibly taken away by the Lord of Stormwind City. Father, do you think he would be happy if we took the quarry back to him?" Francis thought more simply and wanted to use simple methods to impress Meng.
John.
"With silk, do you think he would be interested in the pitiful profits from the quarry?" The Marquis shook his head and directly rejected Francis's suggestion. Soon, he remembered something and asked: "You're not
Say, you promised him last time that you would win him the position of city lord, right?"
"Yes, father." Francis' eyes lit up. Antonio is not short of money now, but he is just a small baron. When he sees a higher-ranking noble, he still needs to bow. Get him a higher status.
Maybe it can make Meng Han happier.
"I will go to see His Majesty the King right away." The Marquis made an instant decision: "I will go and ask Your Majesty. Baron Antonio has done great service in managing Huangsha Town, and Huangsha City has been established. I recommend him to be the city lord." After a pause, he continued.
Added: "Do you think he would be interested in the title His Excellency Viscount Antonio?"
Meng Han had no idea what was happening outside. These days, while he was enjoying the endless flow of huge amounts of gold coins into his territory, he also did not forget to expand his strength at any time. Another batch of two hundred people
Soldiers were recruited and joined the outer city guards of Huangsha Town, and were uniformly equipped with weapons and armor. Now that the wealth was increasing, Meng Han had to expand crazily.
A silk trading group has been spontaneously established in the town. In addition to auctioning the silk purchase rights and shares every day, this group is also expanding crazily. The huge benefits are also full of huge risks.
These people all know that they must have the strength to protect themselves. If someone comes to rob Meng Han's silk industry now, maybe without Meng Han's objection, these people will take the initiative to deal with future enemies. On this territory
, whoever dares to touch their financial resources is their enemy.
"It doesn't matter how much profit they make in just one trip, but, Grace, think about it, how much did we buy the silk thread? How much did we sell the silk? If we let them know the profit, they would
I'll just pass out." Meng Han smiled and said: "It's not worth it. We just need to earn our own benefits and leave some for others, and they will take care of a lot of trouble for us." Meng Han took the trouble to convince the beautiful housekeeper beside him
, lest she be blinded by the huge profits and unable to see the risks behind it.
"Sir, there is a man who claims to be the leader of the underground trade union, and he wants to see you." During the discussion, someone suddenly rushed in to report.
"Underground guild?" Meng Han was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "Come on, let's go take a look together."
