Happy people from Blue Star

Chapter 306 Weird things from Inrodo
Hardy didn't know that he was being targeted by three old men.

He was in Tacoma County, talking to a man with a red cloth hat wrapped around his head.

"Sir Hardy, as a spice merchant, I hope to have my own land in this city."

Hardy smiled and said: "Then you shouldn't come to me. You should buy it from the citizens of this city."

"As a lord, don't you have the power to forcefully clear a piece of land?"

Hardy shook his head: "If they didn't make a big mistake, I don't have that power."

"What a pity." Although the dark-skinned man suppressed it very well, there was a trace of contempt for the boy opposite him in his eyes: "Are you too young and don't have all the power in your hands?"

Hardy chuckled: "Maybe it's just what you said."

"Okay then." The man shrugged helplessly: "I heard that the gray orcs here are very good. Bring me two ships with 4000 people."

Under normal circumstances, even two large sea ships cannot hold so many gray orcs.

But if the moral bottom line is lowered, it can be tolerated.

"You have to buy it from the citizens." Hardy still smiled and said: "There are no gray orcs in our lord's mansion."

Hardy himself was not involved in the slave trade.

But he doesn't want to deal with private circulation.

Due to the limitations of the times, many things cannot be controlled.

The man seemed a little annoyed: "Don't you have anything here? Let's do this. You give me three hundred sets of armor first. When I return to Inrodo, I will sell them, and then I will bring a batch of spices and share them with you." Half. We can sign a contract, but it must be signed in the Inrodo language."

Hardy frowned.

It happened to be at this time that a guard came in and placed a parchment in front of Hadi.

Hardy picked it up and looked at it, then looked up at the man in front of him with some humor.

As if he felt something, the man from Inrodo seemed a little nervous, and then he said sternly: "You don't even have three hundred sets of armor? I'm a fool to come to this shabby place to do business."

After the man finished speaking, he stood up and wanted to leave.

But two guards at the door stood out at the same time and stood in the middle of the door.

The guards didn't like the tone of this man's words before.

Now that they saw that Hardy's expression was obviously wrong, they naturally would not let the man leave.

"Sir, what do you mean?" he turned around and said angrily.

This is the first time the opponent has used the honorific title for Hardy since he entered the door.

Hardy shook his head helplessly: "I have long heard that the businessmen in Inluodo are bold and love to lie, but I didn't expect it to be true."

"I do not understand what you're saying."

"Liar Renta Arora." Hardy laughed: "Your name is already notorious on the coastline, but you still dare to come to my place to cheat?"

Hearing Hardy's words, the man's face changed drastically: "Sir, this is not the case at all. How dare I lie to you!"

"The intention was to defraud three hundred sets of heavy armor. According to French law, the amount was huge and one should be hanged. But considering that the deception was not successful, all the personal property was confiscated and added to the finances. At the same time, the man was imprisoned for ten years. Years. Anyone traveling with him will be imprisoned for one year."

Hardy smiled coldly.

Now Tacoma has more than doubled the size of the port, and Hardy has recruited many players to become officials here.

Not all players are militant.

There are also those who are casual and those who are studying, and they all regard this game as an 'opportunity'.

An opportunity to learn a high level of management and human resources.

No matter what era, the essence of management is the same, only the details differ.

Therefore, Hardy's three cities have been managed by many very capable players.

Here in the port city of Tacoma, an 'Intelligence Division' was established two months ago.

It mainly collects information from the sailors who come and go in the seaport. Whether it is the price of local specialties or anecdotes, it is within the scope of its collection.

As for Good Death, things about the liar Renta Arora are also collected in it.

This guy is cheating everywhere and has many victims. He always uses signing contracts as an excuse to defraud other people's money.

This guy is very good at deceiving people, because his contract is written in Inluoduo language. Although there is a translation, he uses vague and ambiguous grammar to express some key words.

In this way, there is a lot of room for maneuverability, and then he can use the contract to make a lot of money, and even make nothing.This time when he came to Tacoma County, he actually wanted to restrain himself. After all, it was not good to lie too much.

But seeing Hardy so young, he started to think of deceiving people again.

All kinds of words were used subconsciously.

After taking the liar away, another dark-skinned businessman walked in.

He looked very nervous, because he had just seen Alola being taken away, and thought he had entered the dragon's den.

Hardy saw him and asked with a smile: "So, Your Excellency, what do you want to do here?"

"I heard that there is a business cooperation here, which can provide certain... low-interest loans!" He stammered nervously: "Just sign the contract."

"Yes, how about a French contract with the fair terms of the goddess of light?"

"really?"

Hardy nodded: "The interest is 20% a year."

"What is the maximum loan amount?" The businessman's eyes lit up and he asked anxiously.

"It depends on how big your ship is and how many there are." Hardy said with a smile: "The upper limit is five hundred gold coins."

The businessman shook his head: "I don't need that much. I just need one hundred gold coins and let me transport the goods back again. That's enough. I have three big ships and 130 seven sailors."

Hardy nodded, this can indeed lend a hundred gold coins.

"If you cannot pay off the interest and principal within five years, then your boat and people will belong to us in Tacoma County, do you understand?"

"I understand." The businessman nodded heavily.

Then Hardy turned around and said, "Take your Excellency to sign the contract."

Then Sophia came over.

There is also a new temple of the Goddess of Light in Tacoma County. The priests inside are very polite and respectful to Hardy.

In the past, there was a certain threshold for others to sign a fair contract with the Goddess of Light.

But here in Hardy, there is no threshold at all.

You can sign at any time.

Of course... Hardy didn't let the temple's work go in vain. Every time he signed a contract, he was paid a silver coin for his hard work.

This is not a small amount of money.

So Hardy is actually very popular in the Temple of Light.

Both goddesses and believers hope to see Hadi appear in the temple.

Then several more businessmen came, and more than half of them were able to sign loan contracts.

The amount generally ranges from dozens to one hundred gold coins.

This idea was put together by the players and officials.

They came up with this idea after they learned that Hardy had a very 'hard' relationship with the Illuminati Cult.

The money lent... there will definitely be bad debts.

But according to the calculations of economic players, with the contract of the Goddess of Light, the chance of losing money is very small, but it won't be too profitable.

Lending money is just a means.

Mainly using this method to attract maritime merchants.

When merchants come by ship, goods will come.

With goods, there will be business.

With business, there will be taxes.

After working for a long time, Hardy was also a little tired.

He went to his room to take a nap, and when he woke up, he saw Sophia standing in front of him.

"Sir Hardy, if you are free in the afternoon, could you teach Gui Wenir for a while?"
