The Sun King's Evidence
Chapter 468, business is business
"Pa~" A gold crown fell on the big round table covered with tablecloth. On the front of the gold crown was the iris, the national flower of Britannia, and on the back was a photo of the first knight king Arthur, with the words Arthur on it. date of birth and death.
"I have to say, Mr. Ryan, you really have no talent for this kind of game." A businessman with a shiny face and bright eyes was sitting opposite Ryan. There was red wine and a handful of gold crowns on the table: "It's like It’s the same thing you said.”
"...Yes, you're right, Oliver, I really don't have any talent for this game." Ryan looked at Oliver's "tower" erected with nine gold crowns with some envy, and then chuckled and gave up. : "Okay, I admit defeat."
The towers erected in gold crowns were overthrown.
Although Ryan always had a smile on his face, Oliver could clearly feel that Ryan was a little unhappy about losing to him. This big businessman who was already famous throughout the old world wisely changed the topic: "King Belega's The trading post is already under construction. My Earl, our Chamber of Commerce has occupied the best position in the trading post. Duke Hagen has also allowed us free trade and unified tariffs. Now it seems that the Principality of Gisoleaux has also joined. our alliance.”
"Very good." Ryan nodded. He lowered his head and remained silent. Oliver wisely stopped talking. Of course, this big businessman who still looked a little fatter knew what the man in front of him in his early thirties was. How powerful is the country or even the old world.
When his caravan arrived at Middenland for trade, White Wolf Elector Boris Todbringer and White Wolf Pope Emil Wagel actually met him in person. Oliver was not stupid enough to feel guilty. Good, and felt that as a big businessman, he was qualified to be received by these two people, who were very powerful even in the empire.
Unless he is a distinguished guest from a high elf or a merchant envoy from the High King of the Dwarves, meeting the company commander of the White Wolf Knights is already the highest level of reception for a businessman.
Well, they also had dinner together. Although the dinner was not very appetizing, after that dinner, Oliver never encountered any difficulties from the stubborn Middenland nobles again.
After thinking for a long time, Ryan raised his head and stared at Oliver who was patiently waiting for his answer: "Dear Oliver, don't you feel uncomfortable? The trading station we worked hard to build has to be given to Duke Hagen who has nothing. I understand that my subordinates will take a large share, and the profits will also be shared.”
"Eating alone is not a good choice, my Earl." Oliver understood this: "I think you know better than me. Everyone makes money together, and everyone bears risks together. When you encounter problems, these are all together." People who make money naturally want to lend a helping hand, and at this time, an invisible alliance is formed.”
"What's more important is that whether it's Duke Hagen or Duke Fourcade, they are bound to accept my favor more." Ryan stood up, and he motioned for Oliver to come out with him: "Are you interested in going out for a walk? Oliver? ?”
"Of course, as long as you need it." Oliver smiled very cooperatively.
Ryan is a nostalgic person. He already had a very good cooperative relationship with him before he became famous. Oliver naturally put all his efforts into maintaining it. Now he can become the first-class big businessman in the entire old world. Not without reason.
"Huh? Mr. Oliver, you're here? Welcome." As soon as the two of them left the room together, a mature and beautiful figure stopped in front of them. She wiped her wet long golden curly hair with a towel and her dark blue legs. The tight pants set off the two long legs that are straight and slender. The high-collared knight costume, golden tassels and black leather boots look full of heroism. The swan-like slender neck is full of delicate skin that can be broken by blows.
"Oh! Of course, Mrs. Sulia." Oliver was obviously a little nervous when he saw the visitor, and he quickly saluted: "You are so beautiful today."
One thing that is generally recognized in this earldom is that his wife is even more untouchable than the earl himself. It is no longer news that Sulia calmly dealt with her opponents with a moving smile on her face. Now, Ryan often goes out to fight. Most of the internal affairs are managed by Sulia, and she does manage them very well. She only has one heir left now.
"Thank you, Oliver, thank you... Ryan, are you going out?" Sulia had just completed her daily riding and swordsmanship exercises. The female knight went to take a shower and changed into a new set of clothes. When she came out, she saw him about to go out. The countess was a little curious: "Where are you going in such a cold weather?"
"Oliver and I want to talk about something. Sulia, you can come too." Ryan smiled and took his wife's little hand: "Let Oliver and his family come too, and we can go out and find a place to have a picnic."
"Of course it's nice to have a picnic, but where should we choose?" Sulia said gently: "It's better to let Mr. Oliver, his wife and children wait for us to hunt in the ice and snow, right?"
"Of course not." Ryan suddenly remembered something, and he smiled mischievously: "Let's go to my brother's house and see what delicious food there is."
"It's all up to you, my husband."
So, thirty minutes later, Angron's home was in Red Fish Village.
"Oh, my brother raised too many fish. Don't let us eat some." Ryan used the fishing net to catch several fish.
"There are too many vegetables at my brother's house, and they will get old if we don't pick them. Let's pick some and eat them." Ryan held a big bag and picked the vegetable leaves.
"Brother's fragrant pig is really beautiful. Let's get one to make roast suckling pig."
"Brother's radish looks very beautiful!"
"You're already here, please pull out more~"
"Woof woof woof~" Angron's two border collie naturally recognized Ryan and Sulia. They barked a few times and ran up to rub Ryan's trouser legs.
Ryan and the others made a sumptuous lunch using local ingredients from Angron's house.
Oliver's wife is a beautiful woman in her thirties. It is said that this is Oliver's second wife. Although she is well maintained and does not look old, she is still completely at a disadvantage when facing Sulia. She is confident that she can She was deeply proud to participate in a private party of this level. The merchant's wife always had a low status in front of noble ladies. Facing Sulia, she was submissive and smiling, more like a housekeeper.
But this is enough for her to brag in her own circle for several years. Ryan thought, sometimes it is like this. The circle of noble ladies represented by Sulia makes all women flock to it. Only a few people are destined to change their destiny. .
"Lidya Su, how's the situation over there?" At the picnic, Ryan held the orange juice in his hand. Asked casually towards Lidya Su.
Marriage in the Middle Ages was different from many marriages in ancient China in his previous life.
His marriage to Sulia is really just a marriage between the two of them. After getting married, Ryan is still an earl and Sulia is still a marquise. Their titles are relatively independent, they are financially free, and they are female knights. She owns the fiefs of two villages in the Duchy of Winford, and she enjoys complete financial and governance rights. These two villages have nothing to do with Lane. Even if he is the husband of a marquis, he has no right to interfere with the affairs of these two villages. In any case, the female knight has a huge dowry of more than 20,000 gold crowns. This money has nothing to do with Ryan. How to use it depends on Sulia herself.
In the same way, if Ryan is unwilling, Sulia has no right to interfere with his territory.
If you want to merge titles, Ryan's generation cannot do it. It will be possible until their children are born and inherit all the titles of their parents.
Oliver thought to himself that this was probably why most of the marriages of duke's eldest daughter were unhappy. Marrying a duke's eldest daughter as a wife meant that she had considerable financial power and autonomy, and at the same time she would receive strong support from her family, which meant that anything Small conflicts between husband and wife can easily cause huge turmoil and eventually form a family war. Duke's legitimate daughters are not afraid of their husbands at all, and their husbands are often the ones who talk down to them.
But this kind of situation cannot be seen in Ryan and Sulia. They can be called a model couple. While maintaining his strong position, Ryan let Sulia take charge of his territory and helped his wife establish prestige, while Lidya Su knew how to respect Ryan's guidelines and debate on some small things. Some small games between the couple kept them entertained and allowed them to always maintain a close relationship.
He holds the power but does not use it. Instead, he delegates power to his wife. This is the most arrogant thing and what makes Oliver the most envious. He knows that if he is knowledgeable and good, his wife can lose the entire chamber of commerce in two years. Bare.
After eating, Oliver thought that there were no outsiders here, so the big businessman whispered: "But my Earl, you know, the establishment of a trading post still touches other people's cakes."
"Yes, I did touch someone else's cake." Ryan whispered while holding the wine glass: "The Duke of Montfort, Fourcade, must be very dissatisfied with this matter..."
"But he couldn't attack because Ryan saved his life." Sulia's sea-blue eyes were full of wisdom: "This makes him feel uncomfortable, which is indeed good news for us."
"So, we also need to involve Duke Fourcade in establishing the trading post." Ryan held the red wine glass, and his face was reflected in the bright red wine: "As you said, we must learn to share , share profits and risks.”
"But Duke Hagen..." Oliver was still worried.
"I'll leave this matter to you, Oliver. Bring the dwarves with you when necessary. Stubborn dwarves can always give everyone a headache." Ryan whispered: "After all, dwarves are the largest suppliers of the trading station. With the most determined trading partners, their demands should be met, am I right? You don’t have to think too much about Duke Hagen’s ideas. He is not interested in these things. You just need to bring them together to negotiate, and then Let them understand that if a reasonable distribution agreement cannot be reached, this trading post cannot be opened, and Sulia and I will support you."
"I understand." After Oliver received Ryan's guidance, the big businessman felt a little more at ease. He suddenly made a joke: "It's a pity that Hadrian was not involved in this big deal."
Oliver and Hadrian are now Lane's royal businessmen. They are both allies and competitors. The two businessmen always try their best to compete for their own share, but they work together externally.
"Hadrian has other important tasks to complete." Ryan shook his head: "Did you see the gold and silver jewelry that landed at Bordero?"
"Astronomical numbers, my Earl." Oliver nodded.
"Find a way to get out slowly and get back what we want." Ryan took out a piece of parchment exuding golden sacred light in front of Sulia and Oliver: "As long as everything goes well, this will be yours. .”
"This is?" Oliver looked at the title on the parchment for a moment.
"Rogue Trader Trade License."
The signature is a golden signature, with a bright light that can engulf all things flowing between the lines.
"The Emperor Of Mankind"
…………I am the dividing line of the signature…………
"Business Is Business" In Fulgrim's tent, the Emperor was looking at the many ancient sage prophecy tablets collected by Fulgrim with great interest. Through the use of psychic answers, the Lord of Mankind seemed to have obtained some interpretations.
Fulgrim wanted to read something from his beloved father's face, but the Emperor's expression remained cold, and it seemed that only the content of the slate reflected in the black eyes could arouse his interest.
The Lord of Mankind affirmed Fulgrim's achievements, and an alliance with the lizardmen did not seem unacceptable to the Emperor. The first reaction of the Emperor's Children Primarch was that both sides were enemies of Chaos and could naturally cooperate if forced to do so.
Well, just like Guilliman and that Eldar Death's Chosen, and Sanguinius and the Silent King.
In Fulgrim's memory, only the guy who used psychic communication to poke a gap in the webway under the palace and shouted "Wonder Pony did nothing wrong" and "Friendship is magic" really made the Emperor angry.
"Business is business." Fulgrim repeated the emperor's words, and he said with some uncertainty: "Is it necessary to continue our cooperation with those servants of the Ancient Saint?"
"It is necessary. From a certain point of view, countless Slann Demon Toads use their lives and wills to maintain the maelstrom through great protection by sealing themselves on the obelisk and prevent the invasion of demons." The Emperor Frowning, he looked at the slates collected by Fulgen: "Many of the contents on the slates have been realized, and some of the prophecies are vague, but we can still learn something from them. The ancient saints have something on this planet. There's a bigger conspiracy, and we know nothing about it."
"The power of those servants of the Ancient Saint is very powerful..." Thinking of the danger of the world shaking with the movements of the Slann Demon Toad Lord Mazda Moody, Fulgrim said with some uncertainty: "I don't know where they come from. , but some of their technologies are still far superior to ours."
"Of course, it is far better than us. Up to now, your heirs are still using my technology, and those technologies are the legacy of the ancient saints." The emperor said coldly: "There are some legacy of the ancient saints here. The incubation tank is just right, I can purify it and then use your genes..."
"Father! You mean?!" Fulgan opened his mouth in surprise.
The emperor shook his head: "But first, let us meet those loyal servants of the ancient saints."
After speaking, the Emperor directly used teleportation to teleport Fulgen and himself away.
New world, Lustria, City of the Sun.
While being defended by more than a dozen lizard-man legions, the Slann Demon Toad Lord Mazda Moody noticed two figures appearing in front of the Pyramid of the Ancient Saint Sun God.
The voice of Lord Demon Toad was trembling.
"Start...the big plan."
