I am a god in another world
Chapter 595 Dark Castle
In this regard, the Conqueror Chamber of Commerce has an absolute advantage. After all, Gavin is standing behind it. Of course, he will give priority to supporting her with a series of resources. I dare not say anything else, at least the Blood Gorge City and the Dwarf Statue City. No one else can steal the business. In a short period of time, it will be the exclusive business of the Conqueror Chamber of Commerce.
The army of conquerors brought many things to the forefront along the way, such as floor-mounted chariots and giant livestock. The two are a perfect match. Not only do they have a carrying capacity that far exceeds that of ordinary heavy trucks, but they also have sufficient safety guarantees. It is simply It is the first choice for caravans.
As soon as the Conqueror Caravan set up its banner, many merchants came to inquire about purchases. This was probably the first channel opened by the Conqueror Caravan.
"Originally, I thought that we were well prepared, but now it seems that we still have a lot to improve." Yeshandara said sincerely, "If possible, I would like to ask Madam to be our Ivanso's manager." Minister of Finance, jointly manage and develop Ivanso."
Of course, this matter was not a slap on the forehead decision, but a careful consideration.
The way she obtained Ivanso destined her to be completely tied up with the conqueror army and Gavin, and they would both prosper and suffer.
When Daphne stays in Ivanso, she must have her own mission. Instead of letting her make small moves behind her back, it is better to put it out in the open and make the two more tightly bound. You have me, and I have you. You, when the time comes, she can't cheat her own family, she must balance interests.
At first glance, Ivanso seems to be at a disadvantage and has completely become a tool in the hands of others.
But this matter depends on the size. Compared with the current Gavin, Ivanso is just a small town and a link in the chain of many interests.
What the other party randomly dropped into his hands was much more than what she had racked her brains to develop, so she actually made a profit.
"It seems that it was not an accident that the lord handed Ivanso to the lady." Daphne couldn't help but glance at Yeshandara. This is a woman who knows how to assess the situation and is proficient in adaptability. It is difficult to cooperate with such a person. Team, their work will be much easier, and their achievements in Dragon Coast will probably be even higher than expected.
For a city, finance is its lifeblood. Now that the other party has handed over its lifeblood into its own hands, there is no one more sincere than this. This is a step further than his original plan to be the Minister of the Interior.
Yeshandara smiled slightly and said, "Can I accept my request as a lady?"
"This is my honor." Daphne bowed slightly and said, "Lord City Lord."
The same title, different intonations, have different connotations.
"Leave the matter of customizing the new advertisement to the lady." Yessandra Yeshua did not hesitate to employ people. She not only adopted Daphne's suggestion, but also entrusted this task to her. After all, she has absolute convenience in this regard. sex.
She had seen the phantom projection with her own eyes and knew the lethality of that thing in advertising. It was not that she had never thought about it before. She had just taken over a city, and there were so many things. Many things had not been completely straightened out. After all, they were a grassroots team and lacked management experience. When they hired Daphne, they might not want to borrow her experience in this area to quickly bring Ivanso onto the normal track of development.
"I will personally discuss this matter with Ms. Regina. However, this new advertising model has not yet been promoted on a large scale and there is no accurate market pricing. Therefore, it will be more troublesome in terms of price. I suggest that we customize a few trials first. After comparing the effects and accurate psychological price, it won’t be too late to mass-customize.” Daphne’s speed in entering the role is also the same. She takes up the job with the front foot, and can make plans for Ivan with the back foot to save money.
Although she holds two positions, her interests are very easy to balance.
Except for the Conqueror Chamber of Commerce and the Black Wing Guild, which are under her control, the others do not belong to her department. Even if they are in the same company, they do not use the interests of their own department to transfer them to another department, but try every means to transfer them to their own department. The only way to learn from the departments is to make your own performance.
"The lady's suggestion is very reasonable. Just follow the lady's suggestion."
"Besides that, I have a proposal."
"Just say so, ma'am."
"Lord Gavin ordered me to form the Conqueror Chamber of Commerce here. The city lord should know about it. I would like to ask you to designate it as the Municipal Chamber of Commerce of Ivanso." Daphne was not pushing the envelope, but further binding.
Not to mention those city-states, even a complete country like the Kingdom of Cormyr has its own royal chamber of commerce. Making wealth for oneself is secondary. Its main function is to regulate the trade market between the country and the city.
For example, some countries and cities urgently need supplies, but the benefits are relatively thin or they are losing money. Those profit-seeking businessmen will definitely not sell them. At this time, it is the turn of the Municipal Chamber of Commerce to take action.
When some merchants try to hoard and control the prices of certain commodities in a city, the municipal chamber of commerce also needs to intervene, transport some of the same commodities and sell them at normal prices to break this blockade.
All in all, this is an important economic tool for cities.
In order to support this tool, some preferential policies in the city, or some transactions that are available to anyone, will naturally be given priority to the municipal chamber of commerce, allowing them to strengthen themselves.
The Conqueror Chamber of Commerce itself has resources from Gavin's side. If coupled with Ivanso's home field advantage, the development speed will naturally double.
Yesandala laughed when she heard this: "How can you be smart all your life and confused for a moment? When I knew you were going to set up the Conqueror Chamber of Commerce, I still asked you to be the Chief Financial Officer of Afonso. Didn't that mean I acquiesced to this matter? In this matter, is it you who took advantage, or is it us who took advantage of Afonso? It's hard to say."
"Ha..." Daphne couldn't help laughing, "Yes, I was thinking about this matter wrongly. Cooperation is a win-win situation. This is the tone set by Lord Gavin from the beginning. It seems that the city lord is more thorough in this area than I am."
Daphne wanted to take advantage of Afonso's home advantage. Why didn't Yeesandala want to take advantage of Gavin's terrifying financial resources?
This is simpler and more efficient than building a municipal chamber of commerce by yourself.
The various commodities left by the Conqueror Army for the Conqueror Chamber of Commerce before leaving were worth millions, enough for them to quickly open the shelves.
After a slight hesitation, Ye Shandala couldn't help but ask, "Is there a portal in the original municipal hall? Can you quickly transport supplies?"
Others don't know how much supplies the Conqueror Army transported through the original municipal hall, but she knows it clearly.
Even if the two sides have a close relationship, if there is a portal in the center of her city, she can't just ignore it.
"Sorry, Lord Gavin specifically asked me to tell you about this before he left, but I haven't had time yet." Daphne replied, "The original municipal hall does not have a portal, but because it was once half-shadowed, it is connected to the other two similar territories of the adults. It can quickly transport supplies, but it can't transport living people. When necessary, it can provide you with some military support, but it is limited to the scope of the original municipal hall."
After all, the headquarters of the Conqueror Chamber of Commerce is located in the center of Avanso. This matter must be disclosed, and with the large-scale transactions, it is impossible to hide it.
"I see. I am even more excited about the development of the Conqueror Chamber of Commerce." Ye Sandala's eyes lit up involuntarily. This fast transportation will give the Conqueror Chamber of Commerce strong competitiveness.
When other people's goods are still on the road, he has already sold several batches, and even the entire market share has been occupied by them. It is not impossible that they will eventually monopolize some goods.
"What do you think about the army construction?" Daphne saw that the atmosphere was good and turned the topic directly to the army.
Military force and financial resources are the two most important tools for controlling a city. Neither is indispensable, especially when there are wolves everywhere.
Ye Sandala answered without hesitation: "I plan to form a ranger guard and a light cavalry. The number of people is temporarily set at 300. The main force will be drawn from the Avengers Rebellion, and the rest will be supplemented by local people."
Years of guerrilla life have made Ye Sandala attach great importance to the mobility of the army. Even if she became the lord of a city, her idea has not changed.
"Enough." Daphne nodded and said, "In fact, the final situation of Afonso depends on the Conqueror Army led by Lord Gavin. If everything goes well, even if Afonso has no soldiers, no one dares to touch us.
But once they collapse across the board, even if our troops are several times more, we can't resist the siege of the wolves. Abandoning Afonso and entering the guerrilla state again is the wisest choice."
"Yes, I hope Lord Gavin can continue to maintain the current momentum, tear off all obstacles, and successfully reach the destination." Ye Shandala also wished from the bottom of her heart.
Because Daphne stated the facts.
This is the real situation of Afonso now.
They may be the only ones in the entire Dragon Coast who hope that the Conqueror Army will succeed. All other cities are waiting for them to fail.
The Conqueror Army has no intention of making trouble on the Dragon Coast. The value here has been squeezed out by them. At least through the current method, it is impossible to squeeze out more oil. On the contrary, if they are forced into a hurry, they can't even keep the current interests.
After they left Avanso, they walked along the trade road between Avanso and Bosiku, heading straight for the Goblin Border Trail, also known as the Wasteland Trail.
The trade road between Avanso and Bosiku is more than 200 kilometers long, and the Conqueror Army completed it in just two days, setting up camp on the trade road 20 kilometers away from Bosiku.
Even if the rulers of Bosiku City had ten guts, they would not dare to let the Conqueror Army spend the night in Bosiku City.
Because this city has a population of more than 20,000 at most, and the Conqueror Army is twice as many as it.
As soon as they set up camp, the ruler of Bosiku, Olla Obastal, came to visit them, and the purpose was naturally to discuss the Conqueror Army's borrowing the road.
Bosiku is a border city, which is located at the junction of the Sunset Mountains and the Storm Cape Mountains. The Wasteland Trail that crosses their city, especially the Wasteland Bridge, is the only way for a large-scale army like the Conqueror Army to enter the Goblin Border.
The matter of borrowing the passage from Persku was already finalized when negotiating with the Dragon Coast Coalition.
The Conqueror Army naturally had no worries. If they could not let it pass, they would just take it down.
Gavin and his men hoped that the ruler of Persku would do such a stupid thing.
If they took Persku down, they would not return it like they did to Evanso, but would directly occupy it and send troops to garrison it. After all, it was a border city, and they only needed to defend one side, unlike Evanso, which was surrounded by enemies on all sides.
At that time, they can still guarantee their own retreat. If the war in the Goblin Border is not going well, they can retreat.
Unfortunately, the rulers of Persku City are smart and cautious. Not only did they open the road, they were respectful and friendly to the Conqueror Army, and they did not forget to put pressure on them. They showed them that the main force of the Dragon Coast Coalition was 50 kilometers behind the Conqueror Army. Once they tried to attack Persku City, they would definitely face the fate of being attacked from both sides. Persku City was already prepared for street fighting and would fight for every inch of land, because this was the fighting method they were best at.
Persku is now ruled by the Thieves Guild named Light of Persku led by Oonara. They are the only dark force floating on the surface in the entire Dragon Coast City. At present, they have a good reputation in Persku, and many citizens support their rule.
Because their methods of doing things are far more efficient and clean than those of the original rulers, because they value loyalty and will provide protection to protect them from the oppression of other forces after eating their own share, and will not repeatedly exploit them under other names.
When Gavin and Ye Shandala analyzed the situation of the entire Dragon Coast and those dark forces, they expressed their appreciation for this force and listed it as a target for future cooperation.
But that is a matter for the future. Now the existence of the Conqueror Army itself is a threat to them. No matter what Gavin and his men say, it is all empty. In the end, it depends on their performance in the Goblin Border.
Once they can break the situation, they will survive. Otherwise, they will lose everything and be surrounded by enemies.
Therefore, from beginning to end, Gavin only guaranteed that the Persian City would not be hostile to the Conqueror Army, and they would not touch the city at all. No other proposals were made.
The next day, the Conqueror Army passed through the Persian City without any waves and plunged into the Goblin Border.
At least it was peaceful for the Conqueror Army, but it was unknown whether the hearts of the Persian Army and the people were in their throats.
When the Conqueror Army officially stepped into the Goblin Border, the waves hidden under the water immediately surged wildly.
The Dragon Coast coalition did not disband on the spot, but rushed forward and rushed directly into Persku, completely blocking the wasteland trail. At the same time, they raised and reinforced the walls of Persku City at all costs. The purpose is self-evident, that is, to block the Conqueror Army in the Goblin Borderland and prevent them from going south again.
At the same time, a large number of pirate ships went upstream along the Borderland River, following the Conqueror Army step by step, monitoring their every move.
Now they are hiding on the river surface without any action. Once the Conqueror Army falls into an unfavorable situation, they will definitely rush ashore like jackals smelling blood.
However, the biggest waves are in the north, in a castle called Dark Castle.
This castle is located at the intersection of the Sunset Mountains and the Gray Observer Mountains, on the remnant of an exposed rock mass in the Gray Observer Mountains. It is named because of the black obsidian used to build the castle. From a distance, it looks like a huge dark monster lurking on the mountains.
However, neither the Sunset Mountains nor the Gray Watcher Mountains produce this kind of obsidian. They were transported from far away places. As for where they were transported from, it is unknown, because this castle was not built by humans, but by giants. Whether it is the gate, corridor, or ceiling, the size is amazing.
There are two completely different versions of the legend about this castle. One is that it originated in the Age of Giants. At that time, giants occupied absolute dominance. The castle's footprints were all over the world. This was one of their garrisons to control the surrounding areas.
The other is closer. It was built by the Netheril Empire. Those arcane masters enslaved the elemental elders. It was only because there were a large number of arcane inscriptions engraved by the arcane masters on it, which has extremely high research value.
Compared with the latter, more people believe in the former. After all, the former is more in line with common sense and logic. Even if the arcane masters of the Netheril Empire wanted to show their strength, there was no need to build the building into a shape they didn't need. On the contrary, the arcane inscriptions of the arcane masters could be engraved when they occupied this place the day after tomorrow.
However, since 250 years ago, the black walls and towering spires here have been marked with the Z symbol, becoming a base of the Zhentarim in the west, and becoming more and more important as the Zhentarim layout in the west, trying to open up a new business route.
Especially after the death of Bane, the god of tyranny, Ximamon, the master of the Dark Castle and the disciple of Manshun, the ruler of the Zhentarim, did not hesitate to throw himself into the arms of Cyric, the god of conspiracy, in order to fight against his old enemy, the high priest of Bane, Bozor, and became the most staunch supporter of the Cyric faction of the Zhentarim.
With the rise of Cyric, the god of conspiracy, he and the Dark Castle he commanded naturally rose in the Zhentarim. It was no longer a remote branch base, but a dark nest where the followers of Cyric, the god of conspiracy, displayed their own conspiracies and expanded their influence.
As the conspiracy of the God of Conspiracy followers was carried out in the surrounding areas, the name of the God of Conspiracy became more and more famous, and the deterrent power of the Dark Castle became stronger and stronger, which forced the towns around the Sunset Mountains to unite and fight against this pressure together, but they still couldn't stop the hidden arrows from the Dark Castle, because those who believed in the God of Conspiracy rarely took action themselves, and they preferred to watch those kind people fight because of their own conspiracies.
At this moment, the whispers of conspiracy were heard again in the Dark Castle.
