"Since Lord Du Wei said so, I won't argue with you this time."

"Hmph, I'm too lazy to talk to you."

Xiao Jin didn't wait for them after finishing speaking, and walked straight to the restaurant.

Du Wei stretched out his hand towards Emily.

"Emily, let's go too."

"Okay, okay." Emily put her hand on it shyly.

Afterwards, it was similar to a normal banquet, except that the servants temporarily put aside their work and formed a table to have fun together.

During the banquet, Grandpa asked Howard.

"By the way, you made this trip, did you negotiate the matter of the port?"

Grandpa, as the former head of the family, is still very concerned about the operation of the family.

"Well..." Howard took a sip of his wine with a strange expression.

"What? It's not a matter of collapse, Your Majesty attaches great importance to this matter."

After all, Knox does not rely on the sea, so if it can lease a seaport city, it will be of great help to the economic development of the empire.

"The negotiation has been concluded. The other party agreed to lease a seaport city to the empire for 50 years, and was even willing to donate that city to the empire."

Hearing what Huo Weide said, instead of being happy, Grandpa frowned.

"There must be some conditions? Difficult?"

Huo Weide's eyes turned to Du Wei, and an ominous premonition rushed over him.

"Uh, the condition is that their princess marry Du Wei who is our family."

At this moment, Du Wei felt three cold eyes gathered on him.

"Wait, Father, you won't promise me!"

Wow!He is almost at a loss for three, adding another one is to kill him!

Howard turned his head silently.

At this moment, Edith, who was quietly nibbling on a whole roasted chicken, said.

"He drank too much at the time, and agreed to the other party without thinking about anything."

"Father, haven't you heard what is called a drinking accident!"

Even if the mistake was made, it was still related to him, which made Du Wei dare not turn his head to look at the expressions of Emily and the others.

"Cough, I actually explained it the next day, and because there was no written agreement, the marriage is not considered established, but the other party seems unwilling to give up."

Rowling could understand the other party's insistence, she nodded.

"After all, marriage is more effective than any alliance contract."

"In the end, I told them that if your princess has the ability to make my children fall in love with her, I will not object to this marriage."

"what!?"

This cheater even threw the blame on him.

Du Wei hurriedly got up to express his opinion, and said righteously.

"Let's say it first, I will never agree, even if uncle comes forward, it's useless!"

His three fiancées were all present at the scene, and if he didn't open his mouth to state his position at this time, there would definitely be a fire in the backyard.

Howard laughed a few times and continued to fight.

"Don't say that, I've seen that princess, she's really good looking, and she's the same age as you."

It was said that the atmosphere at the scene was getting more and more anxious, and the sound of electric currents kept ringing from Xiao Jin's direction.

Edith sighed.

"Don't worry, you and that princess probably won't meet until you are adults."

Mei Ye also smiled and comforted her.

"Since this is the case, we will talk about it later, Du Wei, let's blow out the candles and make a wish first."

Du Wei looked at the big cake in front of him, his good mood at the beginning was defeated by Huo Weide, especially Emily and the others didn't say a word from the beginning to the end.

It feels so scary!

"...I hope I won't be stabbed to death by girls in the future."

After speaking, Du Wei blew out eleven candles.

081 Gnome Construction Team

"My God, you're so tall!"

"... Are you mocking us?"

"No, I just wanted to liven things up, and I thought you'd like that."

“…”

A few days after the birthday party ended, the construction team brought by Old Oss finally arrived in the Farwen territory. Now they are discussing the construction plan in the reception room.

These subterranean gnomes, who were not even taller than his shoulders, were drawing drafts of the design drawings while listening to Du Wei's demands. It could be seen that they were indeed experts in architecture.

This construction team is not only subterranean dwarves, but also includes a lot of black dwarves. It is said that they often divide their labor in this way. Most of the design is handed over to smart dwarves, while the construction site is done by dwarves with infinite strength. To be done.

The design and construction of the workshop was not difficult, and the blueprint was completed by them in less than half an hour, so Du Wei planned to increase investment.

"Ahem, why don't you help me build another village?"

In addition to farming, he also wanted to raise cows or something, but he was unable to do so due to lack of manpower in the past and Mei Ye's obstruction, but now he can just let the adopted rabbitmen help him manage it.

A dwarf in the lead fiddled with his mustache and shook his head.

"This is different from the original plan. Besides, we are not your private construction team."

"Cover it for me, money is not a problem!"

The dwarf still shook his head stubbornly.

"We made time to come here because of Aussie's face, but there are still a lot of construction projects in the company waiting for us to go back and do it."

Du Wei said with regret.

"Well, I originally wanted to say that there are a batch of cheap and clean coal mines that I want to sell to you as agents. Since you are so busy, let's forget it."

"and many more!"

Hehe, I'm hooked. For dwarves who are good at forging and dwarves who love engineering, coal, a fuel resource, is generally in great demand, and the coal mines in the dwarf kingdom have long been monopolized by some ancient clans. .

If new companies want to obtain coal fuel, they have to spend a lot of money to buy from those old clans or seek sources of supply from foreign countries, and the construction company to which the gang of dwarfs in front of them belong is a new company that was established less than five years ago.

The leading dwarf looked anxious.

"May I ask how much is there in that coal mine?"

Du Wei shrugged.

"I don't know, I only know that it is an unmined vein."

asked the dwarf.

"But isn't the right to mine the mines in the hands of the lord? Even if you are the son of the lord, there is no guarantee that the lord will agree to hand over the coal mines to us for mining."

"Why do you ask so many questions, anyway, you don't have time to help me build a farm."

The dwarf was choked and laughed dryly.

"Actually, when I think about it carefully, those construction projects don't seem to be so urgent. Are you right?"

"Yes, the young master's farm is more important."

"What People's Square is not worth mentioning at all."

The other dwarves echoed the words of the lead dwarf one by one.

Du Wei rolled his eyes at these shameless dwarves.

"I'll let you finish all the talking. Anyway, although the coal mine is not my property yet, it will be transferred to me in two months. If you don't believe me, you can build a workshop first."

Du Wei is not talking nonsense. Strictly speaking, the coal vein is just one of them. At his 11th birthday banquet, Mei Ye has already allocated a piece of manor territory near Farwin Mansion to him, but the formalities are yet to come. take a while.

Although it sounds unreasonable to divide the land to an underage child, it is a very common phenomenon in the eyes of the big nobles.

Especially for children like Du Wei who have been determined to be the future heirs of the family, many nobles will give the heirs a manor when they are still young to cultivate the heirs' business experience and leadership skills.

No matter how you say it, it is impossible for an inexperienced heir to take over the family's huge estate at once, not to mention that even if a manor is ruined, this small loss is nothing to the big nobles.

When Du Wei learned that he would be given a manor, he made up his mind to develop it into a farm. After all, he has the player template of MC, and he is the most confident in farming.

"What, are you going to accept this order or not?"

"Let's discuss it."

After the leading dwarf finished speaking, he huddled together with his companions to discuss the details.

To be honest, these dwarves are not necessary for this project, and Du Wei just asked casually. His wish to see the dwarves has been fulfilled, and there is no loss if they don’t agree to Du Wei. Founder is not very beautiful.

"We agreed! But we have conditions."

"What conditions?"

"We need to explore the mineral veins first. If we are sure that the mineral veins are okay, then we will sign a contract for mining rights for 20 years!"

"This is impossible!"

It was not Du Wei who refuted it, but Sana and John who had been listening silently.

Gina said.

"Exploitation rights are generally signed every five years, and the requirement of 20 years is too much for you."

John continued.

"Even the family of the young master's fiancée dare not make such a request. You dwarves are too thick-skinned."

As far as Du Wei knows, Karina's Roca family also signed with them every five years, but almost all the mining veins in the Du Wei family's territory are monopolized and leased by the Roca family.

"Then just pretend I didn't say anything about it."

Although Du Wei doesn't mind giving others money for him, it's not okay to treat him like a fool.

"Wait, I haven't finished talking yet."

The leading dwarf jumped up and down anxiously.

"Signing for 20 years has our difficulties. We are not from Knox. Compared with the locals, the export tariff cost is already relatively high, and the cost of truck transportation is also a problem. We can't pay back the money after only signing for five years. .”

True, it was a long way to send wagons to bring the mines back to the dwarven kingdom, but...

"But that's none of my business."

Does he still have to lower the price to help the other party save money?

"I know, so we also provide 20 years of free maintenance of farm facilities here. At that time, a construction team will be placed in the dormitory near the mine. If the little lord wants to build additional facilities on the farm, we can also Provide cost price discount!"

oh?This made Du Wei a little bit excited. At first glance, he seemed to be losing money, but he didn't lose much. If there is no accident, his farm should continue to expand in size. The evaluation of construction engineering technology has always been very good.

What's more, there are 20 years of free maintenance, which is the most important thing for Du Wei. You must know that spring is always the busiest time for the construction team. For the dwarf construction team, he won't have to go to Farwin City to ask Howard to transfer the construction team in the next spring.

After thinking for a moment, Du Wei nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I agree!"

Sana hurriedly spoke to persuade.

"Master, it is too hasty to make such a decision."

Du Wei waved his hand.

"It's okay, let's make a decision."

Anyway, the coal veins are left alone. Since the conditions offered by the other party are not too bad, he is not unacceptable, and it is only a coal mine, and he has no shortage.

After getting Du Wei's consent, the group of gnomes and dwarves rushed to inspect the terrain and explore the mines, and Du Wei ran to inform the rabbitman of the good news.
