Chapter 80 I Still Have a Hole Card
Chapter 80 I Still Have a Hole Card
Edra brought nearly 500 secret stones, and if Nigel bought them at a price of 500 gold coins each, that would be close to [-] million gold coins!
For Edra, this is undoubtedly a huge sum of money!
Edra couldn't help but be speechless in her heart, this guy is too rich.
The 500 million gold coins are just given to myself, how many resources and population of the territory can I exchange for.
Edra roughly estimated in her heart that 500 million gold coins are enough to turn her territory into a small one.
In Esk Continent, gold coins are the common currency. If Edra wants to replenish the population of the territory, the best way is to purchase slaves.
It only cost more than ten gold coins to buy a strong ordinary slave, and a healthy female slave would be more expensive.
But for a poor person, not to mention a gold coin, even a copper plate is worth accumulating wealth. Edra used to be so poor that he couldn't even afford a single gold coin.
But for a rich businessman, let alone a gold coin, even tens of millions of gold coins can be taken out without blinking. If it is a big power or a powerful country, hundreds of millions of gold coins It's just a drop in the bucket.
"Master Reaper is really smart."
Baron Edra couldn't help sighing in his heart, he admired An Baichen more and more now.
In this way, he obtained a large amount of gold coins to build the territory, Lord Death also obtained sacrifices, and Nigel was able to summon the undead as he wished.
This is the way to kill three birds with one stone.
Edra and Nigel talked and laughed for a while, and then enjoyed lunch together.
An Baichen has been observing the situation on Edora's side, and has fully learned the content of the transaction between the two.
"It seems that Nigel should contact me in the afternoon or evening."
An Baichen muttered to himself, he felt that he should prepare in advance, create some skeleton soldiers in advance, and provide them to Nigel.
Thinking of this, An Baichen's will entered the world of undead and began to create new undead.
After lunch, Nigel sent someone to pull away all the cartloads of secret stones.
There are nearly ten thousand secret stones, and it is difficult to take them away without knowing it.
One after another, the carriages drove into the hotel, and then drove out of the hotel. Even though the carriages were covered with black cloth, many people still saw this scene.
There are a lot of wagons carrying goods coming and going from Mr. Edra's hotel?
This news quickly spread throughout the Sand City.
"It seems that Mr. Edra has found a partner, and his secret stone wealth has been purchased."
"I don't know who is so lucky."
Small chambers of commerce and caravans were amazed. Sand City often had secret stones flowing into the market, but most of them were about a hundred or so. Few people brought a large number of secret stones for sale like Edra.
After a large number of secret stones flow into the market, they are not worth a lot in themselves, but the meaning behind these large numbers of secret stones is very important.
Anyone who has a lot of secret stones probably holds a whole vein of secret stones in their hands.
A secret stone vein is the most attractive thing, and no force can ignore the temptation brought by the secret stone vein.
Small chambers of commerce and caravans can only inquire about some troubles, but large chambers of commerce can grasp more accurate information.
The headquarters of the Awakened Chamber of Commerce.
"You said that the person who bought the secret stone from Edra's hand is a member of the Kenta Union Chamber of Commerce?"
Leonard looked at the servant in front of him and asked, "Which Chamber of Commerce member is it, is it Nigel?"
"It's him."
The servant said respectfully: "It was Nigel who bought Edora's secret stone."
"Well, I see."
Leonard nodded and waved away the servant. The middle-aged knight beside him couldn't help but said, "Everything is under the Duke's control. As expected, Nigel succeeded in persuading Edra and got him secret stone."
"No rush, the fun hasn't begun yet."
Leonard narrowed his eyes slightly: "I heard that the president of the Kentucky Union Chamber of Commerce will rush to Sand City today?"
"Yes."
"That's good, you send someone to spread the news, so that everyone in Sand City will know that Nigel bought the secret stone."
Leonard smiled meaningfully, he was looking forward to Nigel's next situation.
He knew Nigel very well. This stubborn and proud guy would never easily compromise with other members of the Kentucky Alliance Chamber of Commerce, and would not easily hand over the secret stone he had spent a lot of effort to purchase.
But if you are unwilling to cede your own interests, you will face pressure from members of the Kentucky Chamber of Commerce Alliance, and even encircle and suppress!
As long as the Kentucky Union Chamber of Commerce messes up, my chance will come.
"As you order, Your Excellency."
The middle-aged knight nodded, and asked again: "My lord, should we do something with Edra? Last night, I found out the employer behind the assassination of Edra."
"who is it?"
Leonard looked at the middle-aged knight, who replied respectfully, "It's Knox from the Netherlands Chamber of Commerce."
"This greedy fellow."
Leonard shook his head, a little dissatisfied in his heart: "He has been a little too complacent these years. He has forgotten who supported his chamber of commerce and who is his master."
As a supporter of the Chamber of Commerce for the Awakened, it was already an offense for Knox to take action against Edra without telling Leonard.
If the negotiations between Leonard and Edra go well, what Knox does is a bomb that will push Edra to the opposite side of the Awakened Chamber of Commerce.
Although there is currently no progress between Leonard and Edra, Leonard does not want to have such an unstable servant in his hands.
"Let the city guards arrest him and give him to Edra."
After Leonard thought for a while, he said lightly, "Tell Edra that this is a gift from me, and Knox's life and death are up to him."
"it is good."
The middle-aged knight nodded, turned and left the room.
Meanwhile, the Wanderer's Tavern.
Nigel commanded the knight guards and confidant servants to send all the secret stones into the tavern, and then entrusted Edra's undead warriors and farmers to send all the secret stones into the tunnel for hiding.
The carriages that drove into his chamber of commerce were actually empty. Nigel would not send the secret stone into the chamber of commerce in such a grandiose manner under everyone's gaze. He wanted to hide it in a safer place.
The Wanderer's Tavern was where he and Edora dined, and it was also the most famous tavern in Sand City. It was owned by a small chamber of commerce, but no one knew that the real owner of this tavern was actually Nigel.
After seeing all the secret stones stored in the tunnel, Nigel sighed contentedly.
At this time, the knight captain who had just left the Wanderer's Tavern entered the tunnel again, and reported to Nigel Hui with a solemn expression: "My lord, the president has arrived at the headquarters of the chamber of commerce. Moreover, I don't know who released the news. Now Everyone in the city knows that it is your lord who got Mr. Edra's secret stone."
"Ok, I know."
Nigel nodded, counting the time, the president should have arrived at Sand City.
"The president is sending someone to look for you, and he wants you to go to the chamber of commerce headquarters."
Captain Cavaliers looked at Nigel's calm face, he hesitated for a while, and said softly: "I got news that all the members of the Kentucky Alliance Chamber of Commerce are at the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce, and they are all waiting for you, sir."
"Oh."
Nigel agreed casually, and continued to stare at the secret stones that filled the entire tunnel warehouse.
The dark secret stone has a metallic luster under the candlelight, and there is a vague and inexplicable energy in it, which is very strange and beautiful.
Nigel looked at the secret stone and muttered to himself: "These are my treasures, and I will not give them to anyone."
Nigel's tone was light but firm, as if to cheer himself up.
As soon as the president comes back, he will summon himself and gather the members of the entire chamber of commerce. It seems that they are all paying attention to these secret stones, or more specifically, they are paying attention to the secret stone veins mastered by Edra.
Nigel is well aware of all this, but he has promised Edra that these secret stones are only used as sacrifices to Lord Death, and will never be used for other purposes, let alone distributed to others.
But if Nigel is unwilling to hand over the secret stone, and is unwilling to assist the members of the chamber of commerce to contact Edra to obtain more secret stones, then he can only leave Sand City.
Otherwise, Nigel will only die.
The knight captain is also very aware of this, he never underestimates the power of the Sand City Chamber of Commerce.
These people looked like normal businessmen, but everyone had blood on their hands.
In the face of real interests, no one cares about the so-called bottom line and principles.
"My lord, do you want me to take someone to escort you out of the city?"
The captain of the knight cautiously made a suggestion: "My lord, if you leave now, there is still time. They will never find the secret stone after it is hidden. As long as you leave the city of sand and tell Mr. Edra to leave, we can send someone later Secretly send the secret stone out of the city."
"Even if I want to leave now, I'm afraid I won't be able to."
Nigel shook his head and said, "You underestimate them. The Kentucky Alliance Chamber of Commerce is not as simple as it seems on the surface. Since the president has notified me to go to the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce, it means that he has made proper preparations."
"If I'm not mistaken, the city guards and the Knights of the Chamber of Commerce are already on guard against me. As soon as I show up, I won't be able to leave easily."
Nigel knew very well that if the Kentucky Union Chamber of Commerce made a full move, it would definitely be able to keep him. I am afraid that with the strength of the Knight Guards, he would not be able to take him out of Sand City.
The knight captain knelt on the ground and said to Nigel in a deep voice, "My lord, I swear with my life that I will send you out of Sand City safely."
He was a diehard Nigel had cultivated for many years, and his loyalty was naturally unquestionable.
"I trust your loyalty."
Nigel helped the Cavalier Captain up, and said with a smile: "But the situation is not critical enough to require your sacrifice."
"In any case, what should come will still come. I don't want to escape, I can only face it."
Nigel raised his head and looked into the depths of the tunnel, where it was pitch black, and the end of the tunnel was the secret exit from Sand City.
Nigel still has a way out, but he doesn't want to leave in such a mess.
Nigel knew that his deal with Edra was a risk, but since he had chosen the risk, he would never give up so easily before seeing the outcome of success and failure.
"I still have a hole card."
Nigel whispered to himself, sat on the chair, solemnly took out the parchment from his arms, and slowly spread it on the table.
Are you a real god, I can get the answer today.
Ask for a recommendation ticket!
