I am a god in another world

Chapter 698 Turning Stone into Gold

"If the general had said so earlier, I believe General Bolin would not have reacted so strongly. This is a normal business alliance. We rely on this for our livelihood now."

Jihalin laughed and said, "Just based on your exclusive wine, we have no way to refuse, haha..."

Bolin's hard face also showed a smile, and he apologized proactively: "I misunderstood the general just now, please forgive me."

"As long as we can reach a consensus, the rest are trivial matters." Gavin smiled indifferently, "I just came to reach a preliminary cooperation intention. The specific cooperation matters will be promoted by the Conqueror Chamber of Commerce and Ms. Gowther's Chamber of Commerce on my side."

The double act of black face and white face, without knowing the true intention of the other party, they often play this drama, and the other party is playing nothing more than this drama.

After reaching a consensus on the general direction, the rest of the things will be easy to handle.

Gavin and Jihalin also negotiated a few small details.

For example, Gavin has a silver refining production line in Anfei Village that was restarted by the kobolds, and the Iron Clan needs to send technicians to assist in the restart.

For example, the precious metal materials accumulated by Gavin need to be tailor-made into equipment.

Another example is that Gavin has cooperated with the city of Retaven and has begun to mass-produce dwarven fine iron ingots and dwarven steel ingots, which has the foundation for building a large-scale weapons workshop. In this regard, the Conqueror Army has a huge gap.

The next cooperation will revolve around these items.

Before dawn, Gavin and Ms. Gowther left the Dwarven Manor and went to Nimir Village again.

At this time, Nimir Village was like a pot of boiling water.

"You said he was the conqueror? The conqueror who commanded an army of 100,000, traveled thousands of kilometers, and defeated countless monsters? Impossible, he is so young, how could he have done this?"

"What does brilliant achievement have to do with age? When your majesty took over the kingdom, wasn't he less than 20 years old? Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess is only 28 years old now, but she has been handling various government affairs for more than ten years. You and I are over 50 years old, but we are still digging for food in the land."

"I knew you didn't believe it. When Susal just heard the news, I couldn't believe it either. I asked many people, and they all said that he entered the city with our beloved Crown Princess. So, I found a wizard who was familiar with Father Harlanson and copied a copy of his magic. Look at the video for yourself, are they exactly the same? "

"It's exactly the same. No wonder I always feel familiar with Gavin's name. It seems I've heard it somewhere. It turns out to be Gavin the Conqueror. No one thought that such a big shot would come to our village. "

"Who said it wasn't? If it weren't for Dad's wisdom, we would have almost missed out on a huge fortune. Having such a big shot come to our village in person shows that our luminous water channel has huge potential value. Once developed, it will be more than just one million gold lions. The second plan suggested by Dad is the most profitable. "

"Since our luminous water channel is so valuable and has such great potential, why should we sell it? We can completely carry out the third plan. We can do it ourselves We make glass water lanterns and sell them ourselves, so the money will belong to us, right?"

"Your suggestion sounds smart, but it's actually stupid. The same thing has different values ​​in different people's hands. In the hands of the conqueror, our canal is worth one million, but in our hands it's worth nothing. You were the one who was most anxious to demolish the canal before, but now someone has made an offer, and you've become greedy. If you do this, be careful not to lose the one million you've earned."

"We don't have the ability to develop it ourselves, so we can contact other princes and nobles to develop it. I believe they must be very interested in the one million offer from the conqueror, and they might be willing to pay us more?"

"Haha... This is the most naive and stupid suggestion I've ever heard of. If you go If we invite other princes and nobles, we will not even have one million left. The canal will directly become a noble industry. Who can you cry to? The conqueror never cheated us from beginning to end, and even gave us the most generous choice. It's just that we are short-sighted and have to choose a way to cooperate without making money. Now the smartest choice is to follow in their footsteps. They eat meat and we drink soup. I believe that even the little soup left by the other party can make us fat and strong, because we are not in the same league at all. "

"People should learn to be content. I think it is more appropriate to take one million gold lions. After all, all this is based on the other party's kindness. Once the other party regrets, we will get nothing. "

"One million gold lions is not based on the other party's kindness? In my opinion, this matter needs the second set of plans. The luminous canal will not run away in our village. We know exactly how many glass water lamps can be produced. When we make money, everyone will naturally have a share. This is the safest way. "

"Let's listen to Father Harlanson's opinion. He is the smartest among us. He played a great role in our village's luminous canal. He was also the one who discovered the other party's unusual identity. I believe he can lead us to make the best choice."

"Ha... It's okay for others to say this, but don't you think it's funny when you say this? You used to blame Father for cheating us and putting us in a desperate situation. Now Father has become the smartest person again?"

"I was not blaming my father earlier, but I was worried about the situation in the village. All our money was invested in this. If we continue like this, we will run out of food. Don't tell me you are not anxious. I promise that I will treat my father Dad, I don’t have any prejudices or opinions.”

"Okay, I've seen shameless people before, but I've never seen him so shameless. He's just greedy for money. Dad, don't pay attention to him. What do you want to do this time? We all listen to you."

"I still stick to my original opinion. We will choose the second plan. Let Mr. Gavin run the luminous water channel. If we accept the employment, we can get a fixed salary. When the glass water lanterns are sold, our village will We can also get a dividend, even if the processing factory opened by the other party fails, we will not lose money but only make a profit, because from the beginning to the end we just created a luminous water channel. "

"Dad is right, we listen to him."

"You can't be too greedy. We just take what belongs to us."

"Even if we want to be greedy, we don't have the capital to be greedy."

"This matter has been settled. When the time comes, no one will be allowed to change his tune without authorization."

"Understand, this is a matter of our own interests."

When Gavin returned to Nimir Village again, the attitude of the villagers here had undergone a 180-degree change. They never mentioned the purchase of the luminous water canal for one million, and only talked about cooperation in building a factory. Gavin even took the initiative to stay. No deposit of 100,000 is required.

Gavin immediately knew that the people in Nimir Village knew his identity, and he was preparing to hug his thick thigh. In this way, things would be easier to handle.

Basically, whatever he said was done.

Anyway, Gavin didn't want to exploit them. Instead, he was determined to make them rich and started cultivating his first batch of potential wealth followers.

With a wave of his hand, Gavin gave 10% of the shares of the glass water lamp manufacturing factory that had not yet been built to Nimir Village, 10% to Ms. Gowther, and kept 70% for himself, leaving the rest. The last ten percent is reserved for the royal family of Obaisqil.

He did not believe that the other party would not know his whereabouts and would not interfere in this business.

Gavin is not taboo about this, because it is an inevitable thing when doing business in the Kingdom of Cormyr. It is better to let the royal family get involved and share part of the profits than to be exploited and obstructed by the princes and nobles.

Gavin's guess was correct. The genius had just dawned. Regarding the information about his whereabouts that night, Crown Princess was at the dinner table and immediately reported it to King Asan.

After hearing the report, King Yasan, who was concentrating on dealing with the huge steak, couldn't help but paused with his knife and fork, and said in astonishment: "It's understandable that he ran to contact the True Shield Trading Company overnight, just to find a foreign aid for himself in Yandi. , to make up for the shortcomings of insufficient sources of equipment.

But what was he doing going to a small village in the middle of the night? Is there something extraordinary there that I don't know about? "

"It doesn't have to be something extraordinary. Things that we don't like can become extraordinary things in his hands. Isn't this the case with Stark Bush? Under the operation of his Conqueror Caravan , in less than ten days, the value of this worthless weed has doubled, and the market price has tripled its original value. Many farmers are already reclaiming wasteland and replanting it.

This time it was the same in Nimir Village. The villagers there didn't know how to make their irrigation canals glow, and the same was true after putting them in glass bottles.

General Gavin saw a few words from Varro's travel notes, so he came to visit him himself, planning to build a joint venture there to manufacture glass water lamps and sell them.

And proposed two extraordinary plans, one is to buy out the use rights of the luminous water canal with one million gold lions, and the other is to collectively hold shares and build a joint venture factory. "The Crown Princess knew Gavin's whereabouts last night as if she had seen him personally.

Her mission in the recent period is to keep an eye on the conqueror's every move in the Kingdom of Cormyr. The rampaging beasts he caused in the King's Forest really shocked them, and they must be on guard against him continuing to do so. A similar moth comes out.

"One million gold lions to buy a luminous aqueduct? Does he have so much money that he has nowhere to spend it? What about collective holdings and joint ventures to build factories? Please tell me in detail?" King Yasan was also given one million gold lions The lion was startled.

He is not the kind of person who has never seen the world, but it is a bit unbelievable to spend so much money to buy a ditch from a small village that he has never heard of, even if it is glowing.

"Although General Gavin is the chosen one of Lady Strategy, his ability in business and trade is as good as that of the chosen one of the goddess of trade. His willingness to spend one million gold lions in Nimir Village shows that he is prepared to earn ten or even countless millions of gold lions from there. The lion is back.

Before I go into details, Father, how much are you willing to spend on this lighting tool? "The Crown Princess waved her hand, and darkness enveloped the two of them. The next second, she took out a crystal clear glass wine bottle from the dimensional space, which exuded a soft light and completely illuminated the space of more than ten meters.

"Eternal flame? No, it's not the eternal flame. It's the water in the glass bottle that is glowing, filled with electricity." Although King Yasan is a warrior, his attainments in magic are not low, at least in The identification above is definitely one-of-a-kind, "How long can it continue to illuminate?"

"Permanent! The electricity inside is like an eternal flame, stabilized!" Crown Princess had obviously done the experiment in advance.

"Then wouldn't its effect be the same as the Eternal Flame? It can be used as a smokeless permanent lighting tool. The manufacturing price of the Eternal Flame is the upper limit of this product. If its selling price is 80% of the Eternal Flame, It will be the first thing I think of when doing related construction in the future.”

King Yasan couldn't help but lean forward and said, "Could this kind of lamp be made using the water from the canal in Nimir Village?"

"Yes." Crown Princess nodded and said, "The manufacturing price of this kind of glass water lamp is probably much lower than that of Eternal Flame. It is very likely that there are only a few gold coins, and as long as one package is shipped, it will cost several There will be people rushing for ten gold coins. According to my understanding of General Gavin, he will never be satisfied with this. After his operation, it is not impossible to sell the price for a price higher than the Eternal Flame. matter."

"So, he only needs to sell tens of thousands of these lamps to get his money back, and the rest will be earned?" King Yasan suddenly felt that he had lost his appetite, and his belongings were poached by others. I went out to make money, and naturally I felt angry.

"He doesn't need to sell tens of thousands of pieces to recoup his capital. He makes a profit every time he sells one, because those villagers did not choose to ask for one million gold lions, but chose the second type of collective shareholding and joint venture to build a factory." Crown Crown The princess couldn't help but sighed again.

"Tell me what this collective joint venture to build a factory is all about!" King Yasan's curiosity was aroused. What kind of cooperation proposal actually made those short-sighted villagers give up one million gold lions.

"That's it..." Crown Princess elaborated on the concept of collective holdings and joint ventures to build factories.

"To put it simply, he hired the villagers to produce glass water lanterns for him, and then gave part of the money earned from the glass water lanterns to the villagers in exchange for the right to use the water canals. The more glass water lanterns he sold, the more money he earned. The more you earn? Or vice versa?" King Yasan frowned, digesting this unprecedented cooperation model.

He was no stranger to sharing shares, but most of the holders of those shares were princes, nobles, businessmen and wealthy people. It was unprecedented for them to give up part of their shares to the villagers below.

The benefits are obvious, replacing the current real money with uncertain future benefits, and at the same time trapping the villagers, working hard to operate the factory as their own (at least in the short term).

King Yasan got to the core of the problem, "How dare those villagers believe him? Are they afraid that they will get one million golden lions at all?"

"His current reputation is the biggest guarantee, and we personally put a lot of halo on him."

Tynarasta seemed to hear her own sigh again, "Now the villagers of Nimir Village firmly believe that he can lead them to make wealth far exceeding one million golden lions. The scary thing is that not only those who firmly believe in this It's them, and I have reason to believe that he can do this.

He has created a new industry. By then, not only the villagers of Nimir Village will make a living in this industry, but also the glass merchants. Although he does not have the Midas touch, he has achieved the Midas touch. "

"We are not afraid that his ability is too strong, but that he is too weak." King Yasan pondered for a few seconds and said, "Didn't he invite you to invest in the management of Stike Bush before? Take this as an opportunity to form a Crown Chamber of Commerce. If you don’t engage in any other business dealings, just keep an eye on this conqueror. As long as he engages in business activities in our country, the Crown Chamber of Commerce will participate in it. You don’t need to have dominant rights, you just need to become its shareholder and understand the entire operating model. That’s it.”

"Isn't this a bit too obvious?" The Crown Princess immediately understood King Yasan's profound intentions. Once there was a problem with the relationship between the conqueror and the Kingdom of Cormyr, the Crown Chamber of Commerce in it could immediately take over. His business in the Kingdom of Cormyr was to prevent too much turmoil.

"At this point, General Gavin sees it much better than you do. He has already made corresponding preparations. Even Nimir Village may have reserved shares for you, just waiting for you to open your mouth. " King Yasang said in an extremely sure tone, "But you must also be prepared to do things in our country under your banner. Keep an eye on him at all times. "

"clear."

"Sooner rather than later, you should start preparing for the Crown Chamber of Commerce now."

"As commanded."

Similar conversations were not only taking place in the Purple Dragon Palace, but also in other princes or city mansions, all trying to figure out Gavin's true intentions.

Gavin is not the only one who knows how to use spy whistles. The Kingdom of Cormyr is also good at it from top to bottom. It does not necessarily mean sending spies directly to the person involved. Remote peeping magic, detection magic, prophecy magic, etc. are all a kind of magic. A proven method.

Soon Gavin the Conqueror's opponents discovered that he was just a fog to all prophecy magic and could not get anything useful at all. Remote Peeping Magic and Detection Magic were easy to use, but they had many limitations. It can target those places that are not covered by magic barriers. Once disturbed, it will easily fail.

For example, after Gavin enters the Manor Castle of the True Shield Trading Company or returns to the city of Susal, whether it is peeking or detecting magic, it can only tell him the general location, but he cannot enter to peek in depth. This power is blocked by the fog barrier or the mystery lock. It's outside now.

But soon, the trackers found that all the detection magic and long-range peeping magic were ineffective, and even his general location could not be locked, as if he was not in this plane.
