Empires Start with Lords
Chapter 52: : Webb's concerns
In Duke Webb's undisguised astonishment, Ross lightly clapped the dust on his hands and glanced at the large group of knights who were knocked down on the ground. Ross looked back at Webb and said, "I hope you can make the right choice. , Mr. Webb."
Ross didn't do anything to Webb, even if Webb wanted to force him to stay.
If you do something to Webb, no one can get out of Philadelphia alive, including Ross.
Moreover, killing Webb would allow the royal family to arrest Ross on any charge, and Ross did not want to deal with the royal family at this stage.
After all, how can the chicks fight against the eagles, they have to develop for at least half a year.
Half a year may be a short time for Ross who has just started to establish a territory, but for Ross who has a territory with a preliminary scale now.
Half a year, to fight the palace, Ross thinks it's fine!
Snapped!
Opening the gate of the castle, Ross finally looked back at Webb, who was surprised and terrified, and said, "Mr. Webb. I still say that, I hope I won't make a choice that I regret, like Marquis Russell. That way."
In fact, as a marquis, Raisel is already considered a very prominent person in the imperial capital. Even if there are no more than 40 people in the royal family who hold the title of marquis.
Therefore, Rose's reputation has dried up after Raisel's death. Even Webb, who is far away from the imperial capital, has heard people mention it.
At this moment, Ross was threatening him outright, but Webb was not angry, but began to waver and wondered if he should cooperate with Ross.
At this moment, Ross didn't say a word and left the castle.
"It's safe..."
Webb sighed and said, now he doesn't mind the Mr. and the threat that Ross finally addressed to him.
Because... He felt that Ross knew from the beginning that he had colluded with the royal family, and he was also dealing with many matters about Ross...
Now Rose's threat to him made him panic.
It stands to reason that he is just a mere earl, and no matter how large his territory is, he will never exceed that of a marquis. But then, Ross's fighting power really gave him a refreshing shock, as well as Ross' confident tone of victory.
Besides, Ross is indeed a master negotiator.
At the beginning, he gave Webb enough benefits, and later made Webb believe that Ross had this ability, and after careful consideration, he really found that this was a huge business opportunity.
If Ross can really keep the Green Forest firmly in his hands, Webb only needs to provide goods for external needs to be transported to the Green Forest, and the trade volume can be raised to a height that cannot be surpassed by others.
Webb's current situation can really be regarded as a wolf before a tiger.
If his old nemesis, Duke Rusgol, digs up a lot of black soil, Webb will know that his honorary title, the most prosperous territory in East Ayr Province, cannot be preserved.
However, a mere honor is not worthy of Webb's attention. What really makes him care is that it may not be long after losing this honor, and the rank of the administrative city may not be preserved.
You must know that the Kingdom of Aklan has always built the most prosperous area of a province into an administrative city. This is not only convenient for building various infrastructures, but only the most prosperous cities have the opportunity to build large-scale facilities and attract population. settle down.
The most important thing is that only the administrative city can justifiably receive the huge amount of astronomical financial assistance from the royal family. If the thigh of the royal family is lost, then Webb will have to admit defeat.
Because, he knows.
For so many years, he was able to overpower his old rival Rusgor, all because he secretly colluded with the dignitaries in the palace, and obtained the city rank of an administrative city...
Otherwise, the construction of large facilities has to pay out of their own pockets.
"In order not to let Philadelphia fall, the only choice is to cooperate with him..."
After much deliberation, Webb found that Ross didn't come to negotiate with him at all.
Because Ross only gave him a way to survive, and that was to cooperate with Ross himself, otherwise he would go to Rusgol to help his old enemy.
After thinking about it, Webb just wanted to slap himself.
Why did you finally want to use force to stop that guy?
If Ross really went to that old man's territory in Rusgol to help him deal with himself, wouldn't it be...
"Hey! I stumbled once!"
Webb just hoped that Ross would ignore this.
……
Ross wandered the streets of Philadelphia when he was bored, and found all kinds of strange and interesting things and bought them with money.
"By the way, I almost forgot to go to the bank to exchange gold coins."
Ross took out the check in his sleeve, which contained the 200,000 gold coins paid to him by the old butler of the royal family.
Ross walked into the gate of the bank for the first time and found that it was not much weaker than the villa outside. It looked magnificent, but it was quiet.
Think about it too, where would the commoners who took out fifty gold coins at one time go to find them?
Ross has a general understanding, the per capita income in Philadelphia is only one and a half silver coins a month~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It is a discount compared to Ross's territory.
Moreover, the recent price increase in Philadelphia is outrageous. Although the people's life is not in the midst of fire and water, it is definitely not a life of peace and contentment.
Ross came to the window and handed his check to the person in charge.
When the person in charge saw it, he suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "The check from the royal family...is actually 200,000?!"
Ross glanced at it and made a fuss.
Isn't it two hundred thousand?
The people around didn't feel that way at all. When they heard such a huge amount, they all focused on Ross.
"Really 200,000?!"
The people around looked at Ross's clothes in shock. Ross was wearing linen clothes, and they slandered inwardly: This doesn't look like a rich man, does he?
At most, it looks like a desolate knight noble.
Ross smiled indifferently and asked, "This beautiful lady, can you exchange gold coins for me? I still have some things waiting for me to go back and deal with."
Rose's gentle tone immediately attracted the attention of the lady, and a pair of golden eyes stared at Rose: "Sir, your amount is too large, our bank wants to count the gold coins in the inventory, please sit on the stool outside. Wait a moment……"
"OK."
Ross suddenly remembered the woman in charge of the bank he saw yesterday. Her blonde hair was like a waterfall, and her eyes were very good. It would be great if she could be recruited into her territory.
Ross sighed and glanced at the humble watch on his wrist.
This watch is modified through a technique similar to hourglass timing, and is not as accurate as a real minute-hour watch.
But there is no way. If you want a watch in this world, you have to wait at least a hundred years.
