“Woah!”

Lorne could not sit still anymore. He stood up and grabbed Kyle by his head and shook it left and right.

“Old friend, you really do have some ability.

“I thought your business was small, but turns out you have a wide range of connections.

“No problem. As long as you can do as you say, then we will split the profits 50:50. We brothers will each have 50% of the share!”

Kyle was satisfied with this finale.

If the profits get split 50:50, it would be enough for him, as a king, to spend it with his eyes closed.

As for the official status, although Kyle could not use his status as a king to do business openly. As long as he sent out the palace attendants, he could casually say a few words to the officials to do the deed. If there were still people who wished t expose him, then he would have to do what has to be done.

However, after the two of them finished their discussion, Lorne suddenly thought of something.

“Oh right, old friend, you should know about the world’s famous families. In the area that we’ve just chosen, there are already many aristocratic families that could intervene.

“Sometimes, the power of these powerful families might even be greater than that of the palace and the nobles. You must be careful.

“Our main focus is to protect our foundation. Sometimes, we must take matters into our own hands if need be. Don’t be afraid of spending money!”

A light flashed in Kyle’s eyes. He knew all the noble families in the world. This was also the main reason why he was not in a hurry to expand the scope of their business directly to the whole world.

Other than being afraid that Lorne would suspect him as king, the main reason was that he might not control the business if it went outside of Lolan City. He might not be able to handle it 24/7 and others might claw their way to take credit for it.

Of course, on the surface, Kyle still patted his chest.

“Lorne, don’t worry. I’ve already thought of this.

“Fret not. With my long-term accumulated background, there won’t be many people who would dare touch me!”

Lorne could not help but applaud Kyle.

“Smart. You’ve been with me for a long time and have become smart too. You can now even come up with such a good idea.”

Kyle did not take Lorne’s words seriously. Instead, he laughed mischievously. Then, the King of Lolan took the initiative to pick up the wine jar and filled Lorne and himself’s cup with wine.

“Come, come, come. Let’s not talk too much.

“Let the two of us have a drink. In advance, I wish for the two of us to earn a mountain of gold and silver!”

Lorne immediately picked up the drink and clinked it with Kyle happily. Then, the two of them drank it in one gulp.

The atmosphere in the entire tavern suddenly became lively. From time to time, the sound of the two of them laughing heartily could be heard.

After another round of toasting, the dishes and wine on the table were all finished by the two of them.

Kyle calculated his next itinerary and simply patted his thigh and stood up.

“Lorne, it’s getting late. I have to go back and think about how to carry out this operation carefully.

“Once I’ve chosen the place, beckoned the people, arrange everything from top to bottom, and all the other transportation channels have been laid out, I shall contact you.

“When the time comes, I’ll come to your place again, and we’ll start working on it together!”

After Kyle said this, he left Lorne’s tiny tavern in quick steps. Before he left, he asked Lorne to grab a handful of refined salt for him, and then carefully wrapped it with paper.

He had to rush back and let his subordinates test it out so that he could work on this new operation.

…

After turning two corners and getting into the carriage, Kyle began to think. He repeatedly thought about how to carry out this transaction flawlessly, using his personal staff to bypass the Ministry of Finance and the other ministers in the palace.

However, halfway through the carriage, Kyle suddenly remembered another important matter and immediately knocked on the window.

The advancing team slowly came to a stop.

“Send a few people to Rosen’s residence. Tell him to meet me in the study room!”

After the order was passed down, a few guards on both sides immediately left the team and rushed to Rosen’s residence.

…

When Kyle changed his clothes in the bedroom and arrived at the study room, Rosen was already waiting there.

“Greetings, Your Majesty!”Rosen immediately saluted when he saw Kyle.

According to what Kyle had done in the past, he would have immediately helped Rosen up and asked him to take a seat.

But this time, Kyle only snorted coldly. His tone was somewhat pretentious as he said, “Rosen, how dare you deceive me!”

Rosen was stunned by the king’s behavior.

What was this? 

What did he lie about?

Seeing Rosen’s blank look, Kyle tapped the table with his finger.

“This afternoon, I went to Lorne’s place and learned a lot about your plan.”

“…”

Rosen quickly lay onto the ground when he realized what the king meant.

“Your Majesty, I am guilty. I should not have lied to you.”

Kyle snorted a few times.

“I heard that the decision-maker officials are a bunch of old men. I also heard that this very sentence came from your mouth.

“I have decided to record all of this. Later, I will distribute a copy to those old men of the decision-makers, so that they can learn more about who they are.”

As soon as Kyle finished speaking, Rosen’s face almost turned pale.

This was too f*cking scary for him to handle.

If the decision-maker officials knew about this, they would rush to his residence and beat him up.

It would be fine if he talked about it behind his back, but if he provoked so many people in one go, would he still be a human?

Rosen immediately put on a sad face and said with a dry howl, “Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I wouldn’t dare to do it again. I shouldn’t have deceived you. Please! Punish me as you wish!”

Kyle swung his sleeves and sat down on the chair.

“You’ve explained it to me well enough. I don’t really care about it.

“What really makes me angry is that you actually wanted to steal something from me.

“What’s wrong? Do you want him by your side? Do you have to trick all the talented people into working for you?”

Rosen secretly raised his head and glanced at Kyle. He suddenly had an idea.

‘So that was why the king was angry,’ Rosen thought to himself.

The Duke immediately raised his head and said with a smile, “Please don’t be angry, Your Majesty. I too cherish talents just as much as you.

“Besides, I did not recall Your Majesty showing your intentions of wanting him at your side? So I dared to give it a try.

“The reason why I was so anxious and didn’t leak the news was not to guard against you, Your Majesty. I was more worried about Andrew and Alan. I was afraid that they had the same idea as me.”

Rosen casually dragged a few more people into the water and shared the blame with a few others to save himself..
