Compared with the previous ones, Bickley's new ideas are much more sincere. Dane, on the other hand, chose to accept it.
After reaching the preliminary intention, Bickley, with a slightly heavy heart, did not stay long in White Wolf Fort, and set off directly at night, embarking on the road back to Shawan Port.
The 'new investment plan' reached between him and Dane is only an intention so far. The amount is still the standard of 300,000 gold coins. For such a large amount of money, even if Bickley's status in the Shire United Chamber of Commerce is not low, and he is also the general manager of the Schindler area, it is impossible to make a decision on his own. able to make decisions. He needs to connect with higher-level figures.
That's pretty much the top floor of the Shire United Chamber of Commerce.
In fact, the previous plan to take advantage of the fire was a suggestion made by a top person in the chamber of commerce. After being flatly rejected by Dane, Bickley now has a headache.
"Ma Dan, what an idiot!" Sitting in the carriage, he cursed, "Forget it, don't care about that guy, anyway, I'm not the boss of my boss. If you can't go this way, go the other way." One!"
Having made up his mind, he couldn't wait to start writing letters in the carriage.
…
Dane was actually looking forward to hearing from Bickley.
The new investment plan is actually very sincere. The monopoly rights of raw materials and the right to develop mineral veins were all vetoed by Dane. He only verbally promised to give the Shire United Chamber of Commerce a certain quota for the export of raw materials and minerals. As for the distribution of Cinderella's spoils, Dane was not ruthless.
He estimated in his heart that if the Shire United Chamber of Commerce is willing to lend him 300,000 gold coins and provide some help when attacking Cinderella, Dane would not mind letting them make some money and distribute the spoils to him. Gold coin loot is also available.
After all, if they really want to make no money, who would want to do business with Dane
For such a huge sum of money, it is quite exaggerated to be able to earn a high profit between 30% and 60%. Dane didn't feel that he had anything to do to others.
As for the rest, it can only be seen whether the upper echelon of the Shire United Chamber of Commerce continues to be tough with shamelessness, or is willing to cooperate with a sincere attitude. In this matter, it is difficult for Dane to predict the final result.
While waiting for the reply, Dane had one more thing to do next: meet Cecilia's team returning from the direction of Broken Dragon Peak.
It has been half a year since Cecilia left. At the beginning, in order to solve the problem of the shortage of elves in Aurelia, she volunteered to lead a team to Nancy Royal Court in the dark jungle, hoping to bring Back for more fellow elves.
This is half a year.
A month ago, Dane received news from the direction of Beast Blood Castle that an elf team had crossed the Broken Dragon Peak and entered the land of Hindler.
That must be Cecilia.
At that time, Dane sent orders to the troops of Beast Blood Castle and Ice Cave City, asking them to send teams to escort these elves. Worried that Ou Ze's troops, who were faintly showing signs of being out of control, would rebel against others, Dane even sent Patience and led the entire third wing to meet them.
Fortunately, someone was sent.
The original Ou Ze's subordinates in the direction of Beast Blood Castle ignored Dane's orders - not completely ignoring, after all, Dane still had the title of Governor of Beast Blood Castle hanging on his head. However, the original requirement of 3,000 guards has shrunk to only 300.
Schindler is not a peaceful land, bandits are already rampant, and the war has further exacerbated this situation. Cecilia originally didn't have many people, but this time there were three or four thousand elf civilians who came over from Broken Dragon Peak. They were easy targets for bandits. Without guards, those bandits would not care that these elves were the people of the Governor of Dire Wolf, they would only know that elf slaves are very valuable.
When Patience led the team to receive Cecilia's team, they had just stepped out of the control of Beast Blood Castle and entered a relatively chaotic place, where they were also attacked by some refugees and bandits. Fortunately, Patience arrived in time and repelled the bandits.
The road to come back is not smooth, and there are always some bandits who don't know how to live or die and want to make trouble. However, under the guardianship of Patience, a newly promoted lieutenant general whose professional level has been raised to level 14 after a battle, the team finally managed to reach White Wolf Castle.
Dane was very happy with this news, and he decided to go out of the city to meet him himself.
On March 1st, Dane led two thousand soldiers and lined up in front of the gate of White Wolf Castle. Not far away, Cecilia and Patience walked side by side, behind them were the elf civilians who were slowly approaching under the protection of 1,500 elf warriors.
They can't even be called civilians. In fact, seeing the distressed appearance of these elves, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are refugees.
The clothes are shabby, and they all look dirty. How can they look like those elves that should be elegant and delicate in the usual impression
"Thanks for your hard work."
When Cecilia, who was also unkempt and haggard, walked in front of her, Dane said this with emotion.
Cecilia shook her head and said, "It's not hard work, it's them who work hard."
When she said this, she was looking at the fellow elves behind her with a heavy expression.
"Anyway, it's home." Dane comforted: "The white wolf castle has prepared a place for the elves to settle down. Take a bath and change clothes, and you can take a good rest."
Although she looked rather embarrassed on the outside, Cecilia still saluted Dane gracefully, and then said: "Okay, Patience and I will go to settle down our compatriots first, and after they are settled, we will There is one more important thing I need to ask you."
"Okay." Dane nodded.
The elf refugees walked into the city amid thousands of guards. In this regard, Dane still gave enough courtesy to these elves who came from afar.
Correspondingly, there is no need for Dane to worry about settling down to work. He has so many subordinates who are not just for food.
Sitting in the main castle, in the evening, Cecilia arrived as promised.
Straight to the point, Cecilia directly mentioned what she wanted to say when she met Dane this time: "Your lord, you must be vigilant. The situation in the dark jungle is now in complete corruption, Nancy The royal court has been corrupted, and the Church of the Damned is about to make a comeback!"
