After I became a real young master, I became famous for my bad behavior

The Duke put his fork on the plate, straightened his back and said:

“Well, I can understand that you are ignored by Atole, so borrowing money from Haines will definitely not work.

"And there is some animosity between Impers and Haynes, so it seems that this idea is a bit fanciful,"

However, the Duke thought beets were indeed a way to make money.

So he told Sheen:

"But I'm not that stubborn. I can afford half a million.

"But I, James, am essentially a 'greedy boss' who pursues profit..."

“If I invested in your business and it caused my date flower honey sales to drop, how will you compensate me for my losses?”

Sheen knew that the Duke was profit-oriented, just like his scumbag father.

But James is not Atole. He has principles: the Duke cannot allow the legal wealth belonging to Impes to be taken away by other forces.

He calmly explained to the Duke:

"I said I only got the intellectual property rights of Impex using my seeds and planting technology. I don't care about the sales volume of beets."

Sheen used magic to summon out of thin air an "intellectual property certificate", which was a patent he had applied for from the royal family when he was at Pereo College.

"20 gold coins" was written on the certificate.

"I, Sheen, am willing to transfer the beet cultivation and synthesis technology to the Duke of the Impes Family, as long as you give me the funds to purchase the intellectual property rights."

That is 20 gold coins.

(Inner thought: In fact, the estimated value is much higher than this number. But in order to get the Duke to buy it, of course it is sold at a low price)

I run a small business.

Sheen spread his hands and waved them nonchalantly.

Sheehan was understating it when he said:

“I have been working hard on the technology of making sugar from beets recently, and I also want to make white sugar industrially mass-produced.

"This will be a big blow to the empire which is short of white sugar."

The Duke was shocked by Sheen's strategic planning:

How much "intellectual property" does Sheen have?

Sheen is an excellent Haines. Whether it is 'magic' or 'strategy', he can use them accurately and well...

"If I could become his admirer and obtain some of his intellectual property rights, and let Atole know Sheen's abilities, he would probably regret it, right?"

This would be a good way to respond:

If Haines' wealth can be taken away by supporting Sheen, it will not only affirm Sheen's strength, but also suppress Haines' current arrogance.

The Duke of Impasse thought this was a good idea.

"Ha! Good boy!"

The Duke slapped his thigh with his hand, squinting his eyes and laughing heartily -

This shows that James was really happy and recognized Sheen's identity as a "smart friend".

Sean almost jumped up from the sofa opposite...

The Duke cleared his throat and whispered:

"So this transaction will cost me 70 gold coins, right?"

(That’s less than two months’ pocket money for Xilun)

"I think so."

Xien the chicken pecked at the rice and nodded.

"I'm sure that the profits that Impes will reap in the future will be more than 70 gold coins!"

"Row."

James tilted his head, looking like he was looking forward to making the deal with Sheen.

The Duke took out relevant contracts from the documents on the table, probably the "Intellectual Property Transfer Contract" and the "Business Cooperation Contract".

Xien sat on the sofa and read the treaty very carefully:

(Don't cheat!)

Of course, the Duke of Impers is much more "simple" than the Duke of Haines - sincere transactions are more reliable than short-term benefits gained by cheating others.

The Duke of Impes is a man who focuses on long-term interests, and it can be seen that he is looking forward to getting greater value from Sheen.

Sheen took the pen James handed over and signed his name on it:

"call..."

He closed his eyes and put the cap on the pen:

I do intend to take advantage of a big and prestigious platform like Impex.

Anyway, I will be in the northern part of the empire in the next few years, and establishing a long-term cooperative relationship with Impess is more reliable than "remotely controlling" Haynes.

James' analysis was correct. Sheen's goal was:

"I really want to make Atole regret his actions. I want people to only think of Sheen's name when they mention the Haines family!"

...

After confirming that Sheen had signed the transfer agreement and cooperation agreement, the Duke put away the contract with a smile and then stood up.

Sean was so frightened that he immediately stood up. He knew that this was the signature move of "happy cooperation after business cooperation":

They stood up, facing each other with a distance of about an arm's length, then shook hands and said "It's a pleasure to work with you".

Xien encouraged himself secretly:

It’s OK after it’s cooked!

"Well, our partnership was born,"

The Duke held out his hand.

"You give me the skills, I give you the platform. Let's get along well in Impreza."

Sheen reached out and held the Duke's hand, feeling that the Duke's hand was warm and safe.

Atole's hands were cold, and if you didn't hold on firmly, he would drag you away.

"Um,"

Sheen nodded.

"It's good that everyone gets what they need."

After signing the contract, Sheen received 20 gold coins from Impess to buy beet cultivation technology. Of course, this money must be deposited in the bank under Arthur's name.

(It doesn't matter where it is, as long as Haines doesn't find out)

The Duke agreed to Sheen's request and bought the seemingly useless land, and at the same time purchased Sheen's "organic fertilizer conversion" method.

"We only bought the right to use it, not the entire intellectual property rights - the price of this property right has not yet been determined."

But Sheen is certain that this technology is equivalent to the purchase funds for the earldom (100 million gold coins)!

...

In this world with magic buff bonuses, the first batch of beets can be produced in less than a month on the land that originally belonged to Lisulun.

As Sheen sat at his desk, smiling at the funds in his account book, Eric suddenly came in:

“Xion!!”

"What's wrong?"

Sean looked up blankly and looked at Eric eagerly.

"I'm making money, I'm making money!"

Eric sat down on the swivel chair opposite Sheen. Sheen watched Eric almost being thrown out by inertia.

"I don't think I have yet to trade with the Duke on the issue of beet sugar production. What money did I make?" Sheen's brown eyes were full of question marks.

"Of course it's not made into white sugar,"

Eric awkwardly pushed himself to the opposite side of Sheen with his feet, then straightened up from his swivel chair.

"This is also the first attempt of Impess. We planted beets on five acres of land according to your method. The beets produced are of very good quality, and they are sweet when squeezed into juice or served cold.

"Scott told the Duke that he could keep some. He sold three acres of beets first and told them that these beets could be used as a side dish for the nobles, and that the juice squeezed into sauces would be enough to meet their needs."

Those beets went away fast!
