Chapter 114 Selling Potions
Locke really couldn't understand why Ryan refused to cooperate with them.

Although what he just said was very explicit and made people uncomfortable, they also reflected his sincerity. Only by clearly explaining the benefits that both parties can provide can we cooperate better. With Ryan's wisdom, he would not fail to understand this.

"Did what I just said misunderstood you? Are you worried that we will give up on you just like we gave up on Baron Lancaster? Please allow me to explain this, we"

As soon as Locke was about to explain, he was interrupted by Ryan waving.

"It's not because of this. You and I know that there are no eternal enemies in this world, only eternal interests. I know that as long as I still have the strength to hold Baron Bach back, you will never give up on me."

"Not to mention that you still have to invest in me. Before you get sufficient returns, you can't treat me as an abandoned son."

Locke froze for a moment after listening to Ryan's words, and then muttered in his mouth:

"There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. This sentence is really good. A simple sentence reveals the truth of this world."

Then he asked with a puzzled look:

"Since Master Ryan has seen it so thoroughly, why is he still unwilling to cooperate with us?"

"Your conditions are indeed very attractive, but I don't have any ambitions. I just want to nest in this small territory and farm well. I don't want to go out to fight for hegemony, so I don't want to accept your investment."

Ryan made up a random reason and said perfunctorily.

He really wants the investment from the Chamber of Commerce, but he also knows that the money is not so easy to get.

First of all, no matter how fanciful Locke's words were, they could not hide their ambition to get involved in aristocratic power.

This is also understandable, since they were beaten to the door by the nobles for more than ten years, they realized that it is useless to have money in this era, and they must have power and strength to protect money.

And as long as they have aristocratic status, they have all these two things.

Therefore, they are extremely eager for aristocratic status, and some merchants are even willing to pay most of their wealth to buy a noble status from high-ranking nobles and royal families.

It is a pity that although the royal family of the Kingdom of Arad is declining day by day, it has not yet degenerated to the point of selling its noble status to make money. The same is true for the high-ranking nobles. The arrogance engraved in their bones does not allow them to do so.

Therefore, no matter how rich businessmen are, they cannot buy aristocratic status and power.

They had no choice but to find another way to gain access to the power of the nobles through this trade association. Regardless of what they say now, they can talk about taxes and other things. Once they get the opportunity, they will definitely find ways to evade Ryan. .

Although Ryan is not afraid of these businessmen making some small moves secretly, he will also find it troublesome. A candidate for a saint is annoying enough, but if there is a trade association, Yinghuo Town will really become a breeding ground for Gu.

He is very clear that his base is players, and Yinghuo Town is a "novice village" for players, it is better to keep it pure. Before the players develop, Ryan does not want too many people to know the special features of the players.

When it comes to players, I have to mention another reason for rejection. As mentioned earlier, if Ryan wants to increase the number of players, he needs sufficient Genesis Points.

Expanding the scope of territory is the best way to increase creation points. As long as other territories are occupied, the creation points that Ryan can obtain every day will be greatly increased, so that he can summon more players, thus forming a virtuous cycle.

So Ryan had planned an external war early on. He originally wanted to wait for the players to grow for a while, and after the food was harvested, he could find any reason to attack the Ironthorn Town next door.

Anyway, the conflict between the two of them is irreconcilable. Even if Ryan doesn't fight Iron Thorn Town, Iron Thorn Town will beat him.

As a result, Tiethorn Town not only joined the Chamber of Commerce, but also took Qiangwei Town into its pocket.

If Ryan also joined the Chamber of Commerce, he would not be able to attack these two territories.

There are only three territories around Yinghuo Town. Tiethorn Town to the west and Rose Town to the north cannot be attacked. Is it possible for him to attack Guanhai City, the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce?
If he really had this strength, there would be no need to join the Chamber of Commerce. He could just send troops to occupy all the surrounding territories.

But he does not have this strength now, that is to say, after joining the Chamber of Commerce, his territory cannot be expanded for a long period of time, and he can only increase the creation point by increasing the prosperity of Yinghuo Town.

However, the Genesis Points increased by increasing the prosperity are far less than those added by expanding the territory, not to mention that there will always be a limit to the increase in prosperity, and by then he will not be able to summon new players.

Although Locke made a big deal for him and said that after Bach betrayed the agreement in the future, they and Ryan will share Bach's territory equally, but that will have to wait until when.

Besides, why did he share the territory equally with the Chamber of Commerce? As long as the player grows up, these two territories will be in his pocket.

If there was no requirement not to attack partners, he could still consider it, but it was impossible for the Chamber of Commerce to change this requirement, so Ryan had no intention of joining in the first place.

He chatted so much with Locke, on the one hand, he wanted to learn more about the information of the Chamber of Commerce, and on the other hand, he wondered if he could pretend to cooperate and cheat some investment to develop the territory.

It wasn't until he saw Locke come up with the agreement that he gave up the idea. After all, he still needed the protection of the noble forces, and he couldn't sign this unfavorable agreement just because of a small investment.

After Locke heard the reason given by Ryan, he naturally knew that it was perfunctory.

What does it mean to have no ambition and just want to farm? If Ryan really has no ambition, why should he take the risk of being backlashed by monsters and train so many monsters who don't use monster devices.

And he has long heard that Yinghuo Town has a lot of monsters recently. Ryan has worked so hard to raise so many monsters, so it can't really be used for farming.

Fortunately, Ryan didn't know what Locke was thinking at this time, otherwise he would definitely scream injustice. Those Warcraft are used for farming!
But even if Locke knew that Ryan was perfunctory with him, he had no better way. He could only say to Ryan with a smile:
"I hope you can think about it carefully and don't give me an answer so quickly. Even if you don't think about it for yourself, you should also think about it for the people of Yinghuo Town. I heard that Baron Bach has long wanted to deal with Yinghuo Town. The town is on the move."

"If you join the Chamber of Commerce, under the constraints of the agreement, he will not attack Yinghuo Town. If you don't join, we have no reason to stop him. At that time, the citizens of Yinghuo Town will have to suffer. The pain of war.”

Ryan sneered twice when he heard the words, and he turned to look at Locke.

"Are you threatening me?"

"No, no, how dare I threaten you? I'm just explaining to you what may happen in the future."

Although Locke denied that he was threatening Ryan, everyone could understand what he meant.

"Speaking of which, I really want to know why Baron Bach would set the target of his conquest in Rose Town. Logically speaking, he should attack our Yinghuo Town first."

Ryan asked curiously.

Just now Locke said that Bach took the initiative to find them, that is to say, Bach set his target on Qiangwei Town from the very beginning. ?
"We had doubts at first, but after negotiating with Baron Bach, we found that he might have mistakenly thought that you had defected to Poseidon Temple, so he didn't dare to attack you easily."

"But through previous intelligence and what we have seen and heard, we are very clear that you have not joined the Sea God Temple. If you join the Chamber of Commerce, we will naturally continue this wonderful misunderstanding, but if you don't join. "

"Will you tell Baron Bach this news?"

"That's right, after all, he is our partner, and we still need to exchange some information."

Locke replied with a smile.

"Now that you've said that, I have another reason not to cooperate with you."

Ryan spread his hands and said.

"What?" Locke couldn't understand what Ryan wanted to express for a moment.

"I hope you will tell Baron Bach this news, so that he will come to fight us after he attacks Rose Town, and then I can fight him."

Locke was stunned when he heard this.

No, how could this Baron Lane have such confidence? He wouldn't really think that he could defeat Ironthorn Town with the help of those militiamen who didn't even have a magic beast device?
As a victim of the war more than ten years ago, he is too aware of the gap between knights and ordinary monsters. Even if Ryan trains more monsters, he can't beat Bach's cavaliers.

"Lord Ryan, maybe my compliments just now gave you some confidence, but I want to remind you that we only think that your potential is better than Baron Bach, not that your current strength is better than him."

"With the support of our investment, you can expand your Cavaliers, and your strength will surpass Baron Bach sooner or later in the future, but you are far from Baron Bach's opponent now."

Locke persuaded earnestly, he already felt a little regretful in his heart, he would not have praised Ryan so hard if he had known earlier, no matter how smart Ryan is, he is still just a young man, he will inevitably swell under the praise of others, and cannot recognize his own self. strength.

"Whether it is an opponent or not, you will only know after you have fought."

Of course, Ryan is not inflated. He just has confidence in the players. Locke may have thought that they were able to successfully resist the beast tide last time because of the militiamen. Little did he know that the militiamen did not have Warcraft at that time, and Ryan relied on the power of the players.

Ever since he discovered that the player's Pokémon's power level increases faster than that of the natives, Ryan has become more confident in the future merger war. As long as the players are given a little time, their strength will grow to a level that no one can imagine. to the extent.

What's more, Bach's primary goal is not him, but Qiangwei Town, which undoubtedly leaves a lot of time for Ryan.

But to be honest, Ryan was still a little unhappy about Bach occupying Rose Town. He had to find a way to interfere with Bach's actions and see if there could be a fight between the snipe and the clam and the fisherman would benefit.

"Okay, you don't need to say any more, I won't join your Chamber of Commerce, but we can still carry out some cooperation in business."

Ryan changed the subject.

"Business cooperation? There doesn't seem to be anything worthy of our cooperation in Yinghuo Town, right?"

Locke was a little annoyed at Ryan's repeated rejection, and his words were no longer as polite as before.

"The grain has not yet reached the harvest time. As for ore, your ore production in Yinghuo Town is relatively small, and Ironthorn Town has agreed to sell us ore at a low price, so your ore is not very competitive. Besides, are there other products?"

"Of course, Director Locke should not underestimate the family background of a nobleman."

Ryan took out the best wound medicine and antidote and placed them on the table.

Since these two potions are to be used as linked goods for Elf Coins, it is natural to sell them first so that more people know their value.

As a commodity distribution center, Guanhai City is undoubtedly the best platform, and Ryan wants to use this platform to expand the influence of these two bottles of potions.

"Oh? Really, it seems that I am ignorant."

Locke said this, but he still didn't agree with it in his heart. What qualifications does a mere baron have to talk about his family background here? If a count has some credibility, what good things can a little baron do?

He took the potion on the table and looked at it, but found nothing special, so he casually asked Ryan:
"What are these two bottles of liquid that Mr. Ryan took out? Is it some kind of perfume? There are many types of perfume nowadays. If there is no special fragrance, I am afraid it will not be very popular."

Since there are many grass-type Pokémon in the Pokémon world, some of them emit aromas, and some can produce extracts for making perfumes, so perfumes appeared in this world very early, and there are still many types.

"This is not perfume, this is a potion that can heal Pokémon's injuries."

Ryan introduced.

"I didn't expect your family to have a medicine formula."

Locke's expression became a little serious. Nobles are nobles, even if it's just a baron family, they can have the formula for wound medicine.

However, he didn't pay too much attention to it. Locke felt that this medicine was like most wound medicines in Guanhai City. It could only cure some minor injuries and might have side effects.

But no matter how inferior the wound medicine is, it can still be sold in Guanhai City, so he continued to ask:

"I don't know how effective this potion is for treatment?"

"Effect? ​​I can't describe it to you, oh yes, its healing effect is better than the 'Holy Water' of Sea God Temple."

Ryan thought for a while and replied.

"Really, the therapeutic effect is better than wait! What did you say? The therapeutic effect of this potion is better than holy water?!"

Locke shouted in disbelief.

Andy on the side couldn't help curling his lips when he saw this. He said before that the most basic requirement for a businessman is to be happy or angry.

In the end, I acted more excited than anyone else. Look at your staring eyes. If you don’t know it, you think you have learned the [stare] move!

　Hurry up and end this episode tomorrow, what I wrote is really uncomfortable wow, sure enough, people like me who are pure and kind, with a heart like a blank sheet of paper, can’t write about these intrigues, it’s better for sand sculpture players~
