Alyssa finally breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the Vistaphalon family's chamber of commerce, not that she was nervous about the transaction. Point ● But Alisa took the opportunity to successfully find out from the family's chamber of commerce that her mother, Mrs. Angelina, returned midway and did not go to the Golden Spike Territory to mediate for 'himself'. It seems that Baroas has lived up to his expectations. Handover of letters completed.
At least for the time being, my mother should be out of danger.
As the big stone in her heart fell, Alisa also felt much more relaxed. Another point was that it proved that the mysterious ruler of the Yanold Mountains did not break his promise. As long as his relatives could be kept away from this unimaginable game between gods and demons, Alyssa felt that it was no big deal to pay these now.
"Five hundred and eighty million Lien should be enough." Lelouch murmured as he looked at the information in his hand.
"Is this a lot of money?"
Gus turned around and asked, and Alisa nodded and said that 500 million lien is already a huge sum of money. It can afford the expenses of an upper-middle-class family of three in a free city for a lifetime, and it can still survive. Very good level.
"This money is more than enough for the construction of the Chamber of Commerce. According to your request, Lord Lelouch, we can directly buy a piece of land in a prosperous area in the southern district of the city." Alisa spread out the map and pointed: "Considering that We are now only responsible for supply and not retail, but we don’t have to buy land in prime locations, so we should be able to save some money.”
Lelouch nodded and took advantage of this time to discuss some details of establishing a chamber of commerce with Alisa. Alisa was mainly worried about one issue. This time, the group brought an astonishing number of people from the Yanold Mountains. Valuable goods, but these goods are not endless after all. How to replenish the goods after they are sold out? Obviously, the forces of the Yanold Mountains should not have established a transfer station in the free city. They cannot allow everyone to return to the Yanold Mountains to replenish goods after the goods are sold.
Lelouch had already discussed this issue with Yalin before setting off. The goods carried when setting off are extremely precious. Even Ulduar City cannot supply them continuously. These things are only used to raise initial funds. The rest is for Lelouch to establish and make money in the free city. Yalin does not need to provide goods to Lelouch, he only needs to provide technology. For example, long-lost potion formulas, new magic weapons and weapon design drawings, etc. Of course, the necessary manpower will be provided accordingly.
Listen to what Lelouch said. Alisa felt much more relaxed.
The Free City is a city where money is paramount. There are many gold dens where people spend a lot of money. The extreme prosperity of business has brought a large number of jobs. In theory, as long as you are willing to work hard here, you will not be thrown into abject poverty. Hell has become a slave, but the endless enjoyment brought by extreme prosperity will always make people unable to withstand the temptation. Money-burning places such as casinos and brothels will always lure some poor people to become slaves of money. If there are people who don’t have much money and just want to work here and spend their lives peacefully, that’s okay. If there are people who want to be part of the upper class of this city and become people who share this huge piece of cake called the Free City, then that’s okay. But it is not an easy task.
In this city, industries that can make money, especially big money, have been completely divided and occupied by countless chambers of commerce from small to large. It is difficult for new chambers of commerce to gain a place here. Every year, there are countless Ambitious businessmen came to the city. Then he left in despair.
Alisa also had to admit that the influence of the Westphalian family was indispensable for her to be a part of the pie in this city. Of course, she also had to 'thank you' Miss Eunogia for not being pregnant. Help from good intentions is also indispensable.
Next, Lelouch and Alisa went directly to another medium-sized chamber of commerce. This chamber of commerce mainly dealt in fur products and some handicrafts. Due to the recent market conditions, business seemed not to be very good, but Lelouch The furs provided made the person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce grit his teeth and bought them all, because each piece was a magical beast fur that contained magical aura. Such precious furs were absolutely necessary for making high-end armors. Even if it is stored in a warehouse, it will not depreciate in value, so the person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce is willing to take a gamble!
The deal of 70 million Lien was concluded!
Throughout the afternoon, Lelouch visited seven or eight chambers of commerce almost non-stop. The total transaction amount has reached 1.4 billion lien. Although not all of it has been received, the amount of this amount still surprised Alisa. It seems that the mysterious ruler of the Yanold Mountains should not only prepare to It’s so easy to take root in the Free City. Judging from this situation, the other party probably wants to infiltrate into the Free City on a large scale. They have prepared so much money in the early stage. I don’t know how much money will flow into this city later. in the city.
Even Alyssa couldn't help but feel tired at the end of the day. But Lelouch, who was sitting across from him, had to force Alisa to stay with her. Alisa took the opportunity to rub her eyes and quietly looked at Lelouch. indeed! No matter how you look at him, he is just a handsome and weak young man, but Alyssa always feels that there is something in his eyes that she has never experienced before, which is a more pure and terrifying obsession. During several negotiations, Lelouch sat silently in his seat and listened to his discussions with the other party. Alisa could clearly feel that Lelouch did not know much about business transactions, but every time During the negotiation, he was learning as quickly as possible. Like a sponge absorbing water, he crazily absorbs all the knowledge and things that are useful to him.
horrible! This is Alisa's most intuitive view of Lelouch.
"Hey boss, where are we going next?" Gus asked, hitting him. Today Gus pretended to be a bodyguard and stood behind Lelouch all afternoon. The endless business negotiations made this The berserker, who was usually active in battles, felt extremely bored. Gus almost fell asleep standing up several times.
"Let's go to the last place┉┉" Lelouch thought for a while and took out a emblem from the space ring. It was given to him by a girl named Isis when he was on the airship: "But before that, I have to Please ask some of our friends behind us first."
In an instant, Gus and Kenjiro became alert, and Alisa was slightly startled and prepared to lift the gauze curtain to look outside.
Lelouch immediately stopped Alisa's move: "Don't alert others, they are just guys with no big deal."
Reincarnated as the Black Dragon Lelouch's mental power became very strong, and he easily found the tail following him. Obviously these people didn't seem to be very good at sneaking. Lelouch could clearly feel their number and every movement. The carriage made a special turn at Lelouch's signal and entered a secluded alley. Gus and Kenjiro quickly jumped out of the carriage and prepared to stop the tail. The carriage followed Lelouch's order and headed towards Ai Xi without changing its course. Miss S's Kinsall Chamber of Commerce sailed away.
"Remember to ask questions and don't make things too big." Lelouch said, waving his hand from the window before the carriage left.
"Getting to know the boss is a good time to stretch your muscles."
Gus raised the Dragon-Slaying Sword and stretched his wrist, and Kenjiro stood directly at the intersection. As expected, seven or eight people followed the carriage Lelouch was riding in just a moment after it left. When they saw Gus and Kenjiro standing at the intersection, they couldn't help but look at each other. After learning that they were exposed, these people didn't seem to be prepared to make any more entanglements and were preparing to evacuate.
"Why are you leaving? Why don't you sit down and have a chat? Our boss is very interested in your identity!" Gus said in a slightly scornful tone, while the dragon-slaying sword had already revealed its terrifying shape.
The two-handed giant sword, which was as huge as an iron plate, felt so heavy just by looking at it, but this man dressed as a mercenary could actually carry the giant sword with one hand.
No matter that Gus and his group quickly retreated to the street and disappeared into the crowd, Gus could only sigh and grumbled: "What a bunch of cowards. It seems they are just interested in our money."
"I think so too."
Kenjiro nodded in agreement. Judging from the way those people were dressed, they were probably just a few petty thieves. Now that the other party had run away, the two of them were ready to let them go and join Lelouch, but the other person had no such plan. Just when Gus and Kenjiro turned around to leave, a black mist-like shadow flashed above their heads. Only Kenjiro, who was more sensitive, noticed it instantly. Kenjiro couldn't help but wrinkled slightly when he noticed the black shadow. frowned.
It seems that in the end, some people cannot escape the scythe of death!
Tens of minutes later, in a tavern in the residential area of Free City, Christopher, the Fierce Tooth Ghost who was playing the "Star Card" to relieve his boredom, was listening in confusion to the reports of several of his subordinates. The Fierce Tooth Ghost was a member of the Free City. A small gang among the many gangs in the area, the entire gang controls most of the retail businesses in this residential area. The main job is to collect some protection fees and find some good-looking girls to increase the supply of goods. After hearing that the mysterious boy who suddenly appeared had made deals worth hundreds of millions of lien in several chambers of commerce. Christopher couldn't help but shudder. Businessmen who could do this level of transactions were all very rich or noble people on the road. I can't afford to offend this small gang.
It's just that Christopher couldn't help but feel troubled. After all, he had been ordered by his superiors to ask for information about the young man. Obviously, the superiors were not prepared to come forward in person until the identity of the other party was unknown. With his own small gang, he also considered that if someone came out, What can cut yourself off quickly.
Christopher really didn't want to take on this extremely dangerous task. If that boy was a big businessman or a young master from a big noble family, he would definitely die if he pissed him off. But in the face of the punishment from above, Christopher had to bite the bullet and carry on, because if he didn't dare, he would be dead.
After throwing out a card, Christopher cursed and ordered his men to continue searching for the place where the young man was staying. He remembered that there was news from above that this young man was accompanied by two female relatives when he arrived in the Free City. Perhaps he could learn from their Put some effort into yourself.
"Damn it. You let me do such a dangerous thing."
Suddenly, there was a strange sound in Christopher's ears. In an instant, all the hairs on Christopher's body stood up. Before the gang leader, who was known as the fierce-toothed ghost, had time to stand up, there was a sound in the tavern. The lights suddenly went dark, and then a fatal silver light flashed instantly, and Christopher found that his five senses also fell into darkness in an instant. (To be continued...)
