I became the ancestor of the blood clan

"Lord Li De, you, you..."

Seeing the other party's hopeful expression in despair, Li De shook his head.

"I have no interest in investing in Jinmai Chamber of Commerce"

It’s over.

Li De's words completely extinguished the hope in Laurent's heart. He was still a businessman who was about to go bankrupt.

"However, I am interested in acquiring Jinmai Chamber of Commerce.

I will help you pay off all your debts, and the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce belongs to me. Whether it is your residence or the slaves of the Chamber of Commerce, it is my private property.

And you, Laurent can still continue to control the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce, and every month I will pay you 10 Kimpuk's salary."

"No, Master Li De, our chamber of commerce's residences, slaves, and our sales channels are worth more than two hundred Kimpuks. Even if the Green City Chamber of Commerce takes all these back, I won't owe them many Kimpuks."

"Hehe, do you think these things are worth so much money after you are unable to repay your debts? You should know the style of those nobles, they will suck your blood dry"

Li De drank the hot milk in the cup, and stared directly at Laurent who fell into silence with provocative eyes.

"Your Excellency Laurent, you only have one chance, if it weren't for your familiarity with me, you wouldn't be favored by me.

You must know that if a senior mage who has a place in the Green City Mage Association wants to form a chamber of commerce, countless people will donate the chamber of commerce in their hands.”

Reed completely controlled this asymmetrical negotiation, and Laurent had no right to say no to him.

Choose to go bankrupt and become a debtor worse than a beggar, or hold your thighs and become the steward of a chamber of commerce.

Smart people know how to choose.

Although Li De acquired Jinmai Chamber of Commerce on a whim, he also took deeper issues into consideration.

With the development of the castle, there will definitely be a large number of humans living in the castle in the future.

At this time, there will definitely be a large amount of living materials that need to be purchased from the outside world.

If you don't have your own chamber of commerce, it's not a big deal to buy from outside chambers of commerce every time, but it will be easy to be exposed after a long time, and secondly, you will lose a lot of extra expenses. After all, the chamber of commerce also needs to make money.

If you have a Chamber of Commerce that is completely under your control, then these problems are not a problem.

The Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce just happened at the right time. A chamber of commerce that went bankrupt due to lack of funds and did not lose its own business channels was undoubtedly an excellent choice.

The most important thing is that in the memory of the ancestor of the blood race, Laurent is a businessman with no background, and he is not bad in the business field, but extremely shrewd.

If it weren't for the lack of backing, every time the goods would be exploited by various forces in the city, the scale would definitely be bigger than it is now.

But it is undoubtedly a waste of time to set up a new chamber of commerce now. It is not in his interest to start from scratch in terms of personnel, sites, and even channels.

The fixed assets of the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce are also enough to be worth two hundred Kimpuks... It's just that he has no ability to get the nobles to admit that's all.

There is nothing wrong with this investment.

As long as it is well controlled, the future may be a powerful boost. He is making a venture capital investment for the future.

This investment is only more than 200 Kim Puke, even if it fails, it doesn't matter, he can afford to lose.

Laurent didn't think for long, he didn't have any capital to negotiate with Li De.

Senior mage, this name is enough to make him spit out a lot of bargaining words.

"I am willing, Lord Li De, as long as you help me pay off the Kim Puke I owe, the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce will be yours."

Laurent had a bit of bitterness in his mouth, but he still gritted his teeth and said this sentence.

Although he was a little distressed that the chamber of commerce that he had worked so hard to accumulate all his life had become someone else's, he felt relieved after speaking, at least he would not have to bear the burden of the two hundred gold pukes borrowed from the Green City chamber of commerce.

The Green City Chamber of Commerce was established by nobles, and he could imagine what he would face if he didn't pay the money.

Chambers of commerce, houses, and wives will all be looted by those hateful nobles.

"Wise choice, come to my mage tower to sign the contract after returning to the city, and you will become a person with a senior mage as a backer.

From now on, those underground forces in the past will no longer mess with you, and those difficult nobles will no longer pester the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce.

All this is your wisdom to get you. "

After hearing this, Laurent immediately felt that it would be good to sell the Chamber of Commerce.

How to deal with the large and small underground forces in Green City is the most troublesome thing for a chamber of commerce with no background like the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce. At least [-]% of the Kim Puke he earns every year will be exploited by these underground forces.

Behind many underground forces are nobles, so the merchants have no way to resist.

"Master Li De, this is your gift, Laurent Orlando swears to you, I will be loyal to you"

Laurent is also a person who can afford to let go. After confirming his status, he directly knelt on one knee and swore allegiance to Li De.

Ding ~ Laurent Orlando pledges allegiance to you, do you accept it?

Li De was stunned when he heard the system prompt next to his ear, is there such an operation?

accept.

He picked up Laurent and opened his attribute panel in his mind.

Name: Laurent Orlando

Occupation: Merchant [Level: 12]

Talent and specialty: business

Skills: Sensation, Negotiation, Intimidation, Negotiation, Bargaining, Listening Instructions: This is an excellent businessman, perhaps able to manage a large chamber of commerce.

Affiliation: Scarlet Mage Tower (Red Kachar)

Li De was a little surprised after reading Laurent's attributes. He didn't expect this guy to be a professional businessman, and his level had reached level 12, two levels higher than him.

There is an inexplicable feeling of picking up a treasure.

Chapter 23 The Surprise of the Mage Apprentice

After sunrise, Li De got into the carriage of Jinmai Chamber of Commerce.

The devastated guards and merchants of the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce should have looked downcast and sluggish... After all, they were robbed.

But at this time, it was the opposite. Among the several teams of chambers of commerce, the guards of the Jinmai chamber of commerce, whose clothes were torn and whose carriages were damaged, all had smiles on their faces and were in high spirits.

This made many people puzzled. Why were they so happy when they encountered robbers?

My Goddess, these guys must be crazy.

But after they found out the specific news, they couldn't help feeling envious and jealous.

It turned out to be a senior mage of the Mage Association, Mr. Li De Kachar acquired the Golden Wheat Association.

This group of bumpkins is going to be lucky. A chamber of commerce protected by a senior mage is undoubtedly much better in Green City.

The scene that made them envious appeared immediately.

When passing through the gate of Green City, as usual, the guards guarding the gate were going to stop the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce.

Although this group of unlucky guys knew that they had been robbed at a glance, it did not prevent them from preparing to extort money from this group of businessmen.

Under everyone's gaze, Li De appeared, and that luxurious magic robe instantly made the guard who was about to speak shut up.

Hell, how could there be a mage in the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce? !These proud lords are harder to mess with than nobles.

His face immediately turned into an apologetic smile, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry I didn't expect you to be in the team of Jinmai Chamber of Commerce."

Li De said indifferently: "The Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce will be under the protection of the Scarlet Mage Tower from today onwards, and the fees for entering and leaving the city will be paid according to the laws of the kingdom."

Scarlet Mage Tower?

Hearing this, the guards didn't dare to say more. It was the mage tower built by the senior mage. Could this be the legendary genius mage Li De Kachar?

"Please come in, you can rest assured that the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce will not be blocked by Green City soldiers again"

The guard's face was full of humility, without the slightest arrogance as he had just shown in front of other caravans.

As a high-ranking figure who stands at the top of the pyramid like nobles, the mage enjoys treatment that is not comparable to that of ordinary businessmen and commoners.

No matter how brave the soldiers guarding the city gate were, they would not dare to blackmail a senior mage.

Li De nodded, and casually threw a Kim Puke, which was suspended in front of the guard under the override of the mage's hand.

"This is your reward"

Kim Puke?The security officer did not expect such a surprise, his salary for two months was not so much.

Hastily and excitedly took over, commanding the rear personnel to let the convoy pass.

After Li De left, the guard immediately smiled triumphantly at the dozen or so soldiers around him.

"Did you see it? This is a reward from the master mage. Compared with those dirty commoners and businessmen, this is the real aristocratic style. Today I invite everyone to drink in the Rhododendron Xiangwan and taste the flowers of Green City.

Keep your eyes bright in the future, and the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce will not stop you."

The guard's words instantly caused a commotion among the guards.

The businessman next to him was full of envy and hatred when he saw this scene.

One and a half sunday hours later.

The carriage of the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce carrying Li De stopped in front of the Scarlet Mage Tower, and the rest of the carriages had already returned to the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce.

Laurent opened the wooden carriage door, and respectfully set the short ladder for dismounting.

"Lord Li De, please"

Li De did not refuse, and got out of the carriage in two or three steps.

Looking up, the 25-bladed crimson mage tower in front of him looked extremely spectacular.

Crimson Mage Tower.

This is the first time that Li De has observed this mage tower that belongs to him so seriously.

The tower has a circular body with a square spire at the top. The red alchemy material on the outer wall has good magic guiding properties and can gather magic power faster.

It cost him 1000 Kimpuks to build this mage tower, and there are many precious magic materials sponsored by the Mage Association for free. If all of them are converted into Kimpuks, the cost may be tripled.

In front of the Scarlet Mage Tower is a wide bluestone ground. Passers-by will subconsciously avoid it, even if there are no signs on it not to allow them to walk, but the reputation of the Mage still makes these passers-by consciously stay away.

"Come in with me"

"Yes, Lord Li De"

After walking across the bluestone ground and climbing up twelve steps, Li De pushed open the door of the five-blade high mage tower with the hands of a mage.

There are as many as ten magic circles engraved on the gate of the mage tower, and specific magic power is required to open the gate.

Because the mage's hand is the simplest part of magic, it is a must-have spell for mage apprentices, so the mage's hand was designated by Li De as the key to open the scarlet mage's tower.

After entering a certain amount of magic power, the door can be opened with the hand of the mage, otherwise, you can only ring the magic doorbell outside or wait for the people from the mage tower to come out.

Li De sometimes feels a little bit emotional about this world. Maybe there are no modern things, but it is obviously on a different path, and the derivative usage of magic is not without merit.

Entering the mage tower, the first floor of the hall is the widest and the most favorite floor for mage apprentices.

The space here is large enough to practice magic without fear of destroying things and triggering the magic circle.

After seeing Li De's return, a dozen or so apprentices in the hall stopped their movements in unison, and quickly saluted him respectfully.

"Master Li De"

"You are back, Master Li De"

"Master Li De, I will pour you tea"

Li De nodded slightly, and motioned to Laurent who was looking around curiously behind him.

"In the future, the Scarlet Mage Tower will be the controller of the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce.

This is Laurent, and the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce is in charge of it, you can get to know each other, and you will deal with each other frequently in the future."

A group of mage apprentices looked at Laurent curiously. This was the first time that the Scarlet Mage Tower accepted an outside chamber of commerce.

In the past, Li De had always been indifferent to other things except magic.

"Cory, help me get Wei Na down, and take Laurent to the Contract Temple to buy a contract"

The contract temple was established by the believers of the god of contract and justice, and there are contracts approved by the god of contract for sale.

Once a contract is signed and someone violates it, they will be punished by the God of Contract and Justice, so signing a contract has become the most common scene in business activities.
