Episode 12 The Mystery of the Dwarves Section 6 Auction 4
While there was a lot of discussion in the audience, Corey thought to himself that this is the effect I want.
"Dear nobles, there are many masters of ancient scroll appraisal here. If you are interested, please come up to the stage and appraise this thing. Regarding these gems, since they are priceless, we, as ministers, will naturally present them to His Majesty.
, become the jewel on His Majesty’s scepter.”
Although the nobleman secretly felt a pity, he thought to himself that no one could buy this thing at this time, so it would be better to present it to His Majesty, at least it would not make him think about it all the time.
While talking, several nobles who had research on scrolls came to the stage.
"Treasure, this is a shocking treasure." A nobleman's hands were trembling. Corey smiled and snatched the scroll from his hand: "This is a treasure in the sea. The gem just now was found on the seabed near this place.
.I have made sixty copies of the contents of this scroll. At the same time, there are sixty expedition ships chartered by His Majesty. Half of the treasures obtained will belong to the national treasury, and the other half will belong to the explorers themselves. The starting price is one magic crystal coin.
.”
Corey smiled and placed the scroll in the hands of the auction host.
"The bidding starts for one magic crystal coin, whoever bids it." The host smiled secretly in his heart, "One magic crystal coin, I am willing to spend all my property to buy this kind of thing."
"Fifty magic crystal coins." The Prime Minister raised his number plate for the first time. As the patriarch, he also wants to earn benefits for the family. If he doesn't take action this time, he is afraid that the family will be the elders of the family.
There will also be opinions, not to mention the younger generation.
There was a nobleman on the stage who was about to hold up a sign when a person next to him stopped him: "You're crazy. Filming this kind of thing is not just about money, it's about comparing family power. Do you want to be an enemy of the Mulla family?"
Besides, there are still fifty-nine, so I'm not afraid that I won't have a chance." The nobleman who was about to raise the racket quickly thanked him, and was really a little excited by the fiery atmosphere.
The host of the auction was smart and immediately knocked down the hammer: "For half a million magic crystal coins, the man numbered No. 1 won the auction for the first expedition ship."
When the first ship was delivered to the Prime Minister, the host quietly said to Corey: "Sir, you have also seen that if the power of the family is added, this kind of auction will not be the same."
Corey slammed his head and recalled the auction he saw in the Black Market City. He stretched out his hand to hold down the second ship model and said loudly: "Now, everyone, please go home and start again in an hour.
Those participating in the auction must wear masked clothing and must not let others see their identities. The numbers on the brands will be scrambled and will start again after one hour. Governors, please come to the back room."
Corey didn't mention what to do with the first thing that was shot, and no one would ask. Think about the centuries-old power of the Murat family, and the fact that the queen is now also a member of the Murat family.
The governors of the province naturally knew what Corey meant by calling them. This was their unique little auction. They all ordered their entourages to prepare clothes and then went to the back room.
"The dwarf workshop was cancelled, because the dwarves like to work alone, so it was changed to trading rights with the dwarf village. This is my standard for building a village for the dwarves. If you take a look first, let the dwarves live on their own."
This is the minimum requirement." Corey opened a map and placed it on the table. "Of course, provinces that do not have the right to trade in villages can also go to the large dwarf village over Thunder Eagle City to trade.
"
"Your Majesty, what's the difference?" asked a governor.
Corey asked someone to pour a glass of juice, and then said: "There is a difference. There are dwarf villages in the province. If the village is well built and the dwarves get along well, the dwarves will naturally be more willing to live there. The most important thing is
Yes, the dwarves will build something you want. In the village I built, the dwarves build whatever you want. In other words, if you come to my village to trade, you can exchange whatever you have."
The governors all understood that one wanted to make whatever they wanted, and the other wanted to exchange whatever they had. And the most important thing was that if the dwarves were willing to live in their own provinces, the more people there would be, the higher the output and the greater the profits would be.
high.
"I'm building a village. I have a piece of land on the side of a mountain with great scenery. I originally planned to keep it for myself to build a new manor, but now I'm using it to build a village for the dwarves." A governor thought for a moment and said.
"I said, please give me your Majesty's instructions. Each of our provinces has a place with mountains, water, and forests. Each of us can build a piece of it and let the dwarves choose. If they are not happy, then just move. Move.
The expenses will be borne by us." Another governor who considered himself poor in his province proposed the same plan.
Corey thought for a while: "This is also a way, but what I want to explain is that the dwarves are immigrants, and everyone here is a big noble about the demons. It is impossible not to know. So..."
Before Corey finished speaking, someone rushed to say: "Prince Corey, don't worry, we know the severity. My son followed Aolando on the dwarf island to fight those monsters for several months, and he heard that those monsters
They are just low-level things, so we will definitely treat these dwarves well and ensure that the dwarf village is autonomous. Apart from sending troops to protect them, we will not let anyone enter the dwarf village casually."
"In this case, I won't say much more. If you don't have any objections to this suggestion, I will report it to His Majesty and His Majesty will decide." Corey said slowly.
The governor who made the suggestion asked: "What about Prince Cory's opinion on this suggestion? I would like to hear it." These governors knew in their hearts that Cory's attitude on this matter was even more important than the emperor's opinion.
More direct.
"Hey, you guys are plotting against me too. Okay, I agree, but to put it bluntly, if the dwarves have a hard time in someone's province, don't blame me for falling out." Corey said with a smile.
Seeing Corey smiling, Governor Parkintele also smiled and joined in: "You don't need to fall out, we will take action against him."
Only with competition can you live a better life. Kerui has deeply understood this.
When we originally planned to set up five villages, we discussed it with the seven elders of the dwarf tribe. The seven elders all believed that only the most diligent people are qualified to enjoy the best life. Now we have built the most and best villages.
In order to obtain more items from the human race.
Speaking of human things, polenta, bread, sugar, various fruits, and especially the wide variety of fine wines are all very popular among the dwarves. Dwarf girls also want to wear beautiful floral dresses.
"Then it's settled. After you build the village, find a painter to draw a picture of the village and a picture of the blacksmith's furnace. Come to my big village and show it to the village chiefs, and let the dwarves choose where to live.
"Apart from the pictures of the village and the picture of the blacksmith's furnace, no other things are allowed to be mentioned in this place. Anyone who breaks the rules will be kicked back." Corey thought over and over again, and the place where the dwarves lived should be as similar as possible to their previous place. And in the end
What I'm concerned about is the blacksmith's furnace.
More than a dozen governors nodded in agreement and left one after another. They had to change clothes to participate in the upcoming auction. After leaving the back room, the governors told their followers to find the dwarfs no matter how high the cost.
Soldiers or officers who have fought on the mainland and come back to rest with Orlando this time.
They wanted to inquire carefully about the living habits of the dwarves and what the original dwarf village looked like there.
Like the governor whose son had participated in the battle on the dwarf continent, he still thought that his son might have befriended some dwarves and could talk to the dwarves. This would be better.
While they were talking, the theater was filled with people again. This time everyone was wearing masks used in masquerades. After all, they were all nobles. It was disrespectful to cover their faces with cloth. As long as their faces were not seen by others, they would not wear masks.
It was considered a violation of the regulations, so everyone canceled all the signs of their title and randomly took out a number plate from the big box one by one.
The auction for the expedition ship has started again, but Corey is not in the mood to stay here anymore. He plans to go to Warner to explain the place where the dwarves live. The most important thing is to prepare to participate in the Magician’s Guild’s research meeting held every ten years.
