The Invincible Dragon Lord

Dozens of people!

There are people wearing noble clothes and uniforms.

Titles range from baron to duke, as well as regimental commanders, ministers and the like.

fear!

Zhao Hao took a deep look at the 'good big brother'.

Although I knew that the supporters behind him must be extraordinary because of his social arrogance, I didn't expect it to be so extraordinary.

Presumably, he did this in order to show his connections in front of him and avoid finding new partners.

From the moment he brought so much ore back, the initiative fell into his own hands.

The reason is also very simple.

With such terrifying efficiency, not many people want to cooperate with him.

That's right, the first time Morrie saw the convoy, he knew that the ore brought back by Zhao Hao at his urging would be an astronomical amount, so he decisively informed all his contacts.

As for how they arrived? .

Mounts, flying mounts, spells... and other means can make them come from everywhere.

If it's something serious, they may be very slow, but when it comes to their vital interests, these people are extremely fast.

"let me introduce!"

Mori was not in a hurry to let these people see the black ox cart, but introduced the people to Zhao Hao first.

It was obvious that he was preparing to attract him into the circle.

If we were just doing simple transactions before, this is equivalent to taking the relationship one step further.

And Zhao Hao couldn't get what he wanted. He was planning to make a fortune in the Falcon Principality. Only by building good relationships would he be able to make more money.

As for relationships? .

It's all acting, no emotion! .

Even if you don't like the other person anymore and want to stab him with a knife, you still have to be "intimate" if there are benefits to be gained.

These people also gave him face, and responded with a forced smile to Zhao Hao, the adventurer.

Well, that means that he has integrated into the forces of the Buck Principality, and is also the leader of the Storm Territory, a territorial lord with terrifying maritime power. Otherwise, even if Mori introduced him, they would not give him face.

The perfunctory look of these people is completely visible to the naked eye.

And Zhao Hao was not angry because he was not trying to make friends, and he firmly believed that these people would soon become his 'good friends'.

Benefit!

Who can bring benefits to him.

After the introduction, Zhao Hao had a basic understanding of these people.

This is a network of connections that includes nobles, the military, and the royal family. It is precisely because of these people that the Golden Valley has become the Storm Army's defense area.

It was because Mori knew the style of these people that he urged him to come back with the first batch of ore.

If you don't see a bird, you won't let an eagle fly!

At the same time, it also means that if they see Muniko, these people will be more active than anyone else. When the time comes, no one will want them to give up this benefit.

"Okay, now is it time to let us know how big this 'surprise' is?"

A young man wearing falcon-patterned clothing was a little impatient.

Although he is only a viscount, no one dares to look down upon him because behind him is the Falcon Royal Family.

"Of course, let's see what surprise Brother Liuyun brings us now!"

The smile on Mo Li's face remained unchanged, not affected by the refutation at all. He patted Zhao Hao's shoulder enthusiastically, as if the two were really half-brothers.

So the group came to the clearing.

Seeing the dense and huge black bull carriages in front of them, someone murmured to themselves as if they had realized something.

"Could it be that!"

"That's right, these are all the gains from this period of time!"

Morrie announced excitedly.

He had naturally checked the ore in the car, otherwise he would not have introduced Zhao Hao to them.

"What!"

"impossible!"

"Asha is on top!"

…

These people no longer cared about being reserved at this time, and quickly rushed towards the black ox carts with only carriages.

When they saw the pile of ore in the carriage, they were stunned.

It's not that they haven't seen the world, but because they know very well how long it took to mine this batch of ore.

They are no strangers to the ore output in the Golden Valley. Naturally, they understand that it would take about half a year to obtain such a large amount of ore in the past, and a large number of miners and materials would have to be invested.

But now? .

Without giving anything, just letting the Storm Army stationed there, they could get so much, how could it not be shocking.

These are hard currency!

The price of ore may not be too expensive, but it is a basic resource whose value cannot be measured by price at all.

Just like grain!

The market price of flour is only about 500 gold coins per ton. Logically speaking, even 10 million tons is only 5 billion gold coins.

For this price, let alone the Falcon Principality, any duke can pay for it.

The problem is that someone needs to sell it!

No matter how high your bid is, no one is willing to sell it, and even if they want to sell it, they can’t sell it.

Mori and Zhao Hao looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes.

After a while.

After the men calmed down a bit, Morrie began to perform.

"Alas, it's a pity that these 13,000 tons of ore are the last batch. The Ministry of Interior is preparing to take back the Golden Valley to mine it ourselves!"

There was deep regret in his voice.

In terms of acting skills, these people are completely different from Morrie, just like the difference between a young actor and a movie star.

"What!"

"How dare those idiots from the Ministry of Interior!"

"I'm going to kill those guys!"

"Those pigs and beasts are really hopeless. Hundreds of thousands of people have not mined this much in half a year. How can they have the nerve to take it back?"

…

All kinds of angry curses continued to sound.

Destroying people's wealth is like killing their parents. Just after discovering such a 'gold mine', someone wants to take it away, even if the other party is the Ministry of the Interior, they cannot bear it.

Well, it's not that they don't pay attention to the overall situation, but because Mori and Zhao Hao gave too much.

"Enough!", the oldest and highest-ranking Duke stopped these voices, and then turned to look at Mori, "I think you will give us a good suggestion, right?"

He had already seen the methods of the two of them, but he had no intention of exposing them.

Because this is a conspiracy.

Unless they are willing to give up this benefit, they have to follow the other party's ideas.

"I think that in the future, we can give the Ministry of Interior a share of the previous average output, so that they can get the previous output without investing any materials or manpower. I think there will be no objections, and we will eat the rest!"

Morrie gave advice.

That is to block the other party's mouth with benefits.

Even if it is the Ministry of Interior, what about this department that represents the interests of the Falcon Principality? .

Without any effort, you can get what you spent a lot of money to get in the past, and you can also explain it, and the rest will be amazing if they divide it.

The point is that this will make the mining area public.

Now we are still mining privately, and the other party can ban it at any time, but if the Ministry of the Interior takes one and it is a contract, it will not be easy to ban it then.

"no!"

"That's right, how can you let those idiots get one for free!"

"They dare to mess around, I can't spare them!"

…

As soon as Mori finished speaking, most of the people objected.

Because no one wants to spit out the benefits after eating it, even if the other party is the Ministry of Interior.

Even the royal viscount was like this, as if being assigned to the Ministry of Internal Affairs was something completely unforgivable.

Tsk tsk!

Zhao Hao looked calm on the surface, but in fact he really wanted to scream in his heart.

In other words, the world of heroes is a worse and more dangerous world. Otherwise, with the greed of these guys, all the nobles would have died long ago.

Fortunately, there were smart people among these people who immediately stopped the farce and convinced them.

Finally the following agreement was reached.

400 tons of ore will be handed over every week as contract fee.

Of course, since the contracting fee has been paid, the Golden Valley will be officially contracted to the Storm Leader. Even if it is not a defense zone, it will be managed by him, and they will get 40-60% of the remaining profit.

Zhao Hao accepted this.

Although the share he received has dropped by 10%, the advantage is that it will be contracted instead of privately mined in the future, which means that it will be recognized by the Falcon Principality, which will protect his interests. It is really worth paying 10% of the income for this.

for example!

In the past, the income was equivalent to "black money" and needed to be laundered before it could be used. Now it can be used without laundering. This benefit is indeed more than 10% of the income.

As for their agreement, will the Ministry of Interior not recognize it? .

Just look at the identities and backgrounds of these people present, and you will know that they have to recognize them even if they don't recognize them.

What's more, in this agreement, the Falcon Principality has not lost anything. What they have divided up is only an extra share, and it has also saved them material and manpower consumption.

Next, Zhao Hao and Mori returned to Eagle Claw City.
