MTL - Sword of Daybreaker-Chapter 20 Investment value
Gao Wen began to think that the Viscount Andrew was an interesting guy.
He is like a businessman, more than a nobleman.
But at the same time he is a less clever businessman - at least in Gao Wen's view.
A clever businessman will not put things like trading, chips, debts and the like on the face at this time, and a nobleman will not bother to mention this. The best practice of Viscount Andrew at this moment should be to continue to help the Cecil family quietly, but at the same time infiltrate his influence into the sheltered knights and soldiers, while using the identity of the nobility, in the jurisprudence Determine your own "debt" to the Cecil family, and it is best to take this debt to the king, and then ... Rebecca is willing to repay the debt is no longer important.
The laws of the country and the rules of the aristocracy will help him complete the deal.
Of course, Gao Wen feels that he can understand the mood of the Viscount Andrew. After all, the decline of the Cecil family is well known, especially in the core of the family’s core territory. Today, how much Rebecca’s “repayment ability” is really a Unknown.
"The Cecil family will not owe someone else's things," Rebecca's words seem a bit convincing. "Reassured, we have the ability to repay, although we lost the most affluent areas, but some of the outer forests of Cecil's collar Still, and as long as my heir is still there, there is always a loan belonging to the Cecil family in the secret bank treasure, waiting for it, big deal..."
Gao Wenqing coughed twice and interrupted Rebecca’s words.
He felt that he had seen enough of the drama, and he probably understood the current situation. At the same time, his memory in his mind was also sorted out. He stood up and said: "Rebecca, don't be impatient. Viscount Andrew, look long-term."
Andrew looked at Gao Wen. The man who was "suspected as an ancient hero" still had a certain deterrent to him. Regardless of whether the other party is true or not, the Viscount converges: "Sorry, I really have a little... …greedy."
He even admitted the word "greed", which made Gao Wen slightly surprised. He raised his eyebrows: "You are very honest, but this is also good - the pursuit of interests is not a shameful thing, but we have to figure out the status quo, a Viscount The collar was destroyed, a dragon appeared in the kingdom, and the monsters of the magic tide reappeared in the world. In front of these things, talking about business is out of place.
Waiting for Andrew to speak, Gao Wen continued to say: "Of course, after the words of the righteousness, we still have to consider the real problem. You are worried that the assistance to the Cecil family will accumulate indefinitely, and finally let you blood. No return, then I will tell you clearly that the Cecil family is not only capable of paying off any debt, but if you can seize the opportunity, we can bring you unlimited benefits."
Viscount Andrew looked at Gao Wen’s eyes: "Please continue."
“I myself,” Gao Wen pointed to himself. “I am your biggest investment.”
Andrew's expression solidified for a few seconds, then a little bit difficult to tear the corner: "Duke... Lord, I believe that you are really the Duke, but I have to remind you that you have been away for seven hundred years. Ansu is even the second dynasty. Whether it is your title or property, it has been divided, inherited, consumed or ... recovered by the royal family. Of course, I respect you personally, and every Ansu person reverences. You, but I am not just a person, but a lord, I should consider for my territory and my people..."
Gao Wen shrugged: "The idea is a little broader, Mr. Viscount, is it only the real money and the real land is the investment value?"
Andrew: "You mean..."
"I have the right to permanent development," Gao Wen raised the sword in his hand. "When Gao Wen Cecil holds the sword of the pioneer, he has the right to pioneer in any land without a land, including but not limited to The undeveloped areas in Ansu, the wild areas outside the country, and the areas where there are no legal disputes, such as the wasteland, can maintain a certain degree of control after the pioneering of the above areas, where the pioneer’s sword goes. Both are the Cecil family territory, and the Ansu royal family will recognize and ensure the interests of the lord of Cevin Cecil at any time."
Gao Wen said as he watched the more and more eyes of the Viscount Andrew, and then deliberately slowed down the speed of speech: "The above pioneering power was signed by Ansu, the first king of the country, and the eastern part of the country. The Titan empire, the Southern Kaolin Kingdom, the Elf Silver Empire, and the northern city states all recognize that the validity period is infinite—as long as the authorized pioneer, that is, I am alive, it will last forever.
"Actually, this decree was not signed to me alone. At that time, the pioneering leaders had a corresponding authorization, but only today... it is me who can exercise this right."
Speaking of this, Gao Wenqi opened his mouth and smiled happily: "The old guys who signed these documents in the past did not expect that I would one day be revealed."
The Viscount Andrew, who was in a state of stunned, did not speak. Rebecca next to him couldn’t help but exclaim: "Zu...the ancestors!! You...this is true?!"
"Who is responsible for her history class?" Gao Wen couldn't help but look at Herti with a squint in his head. "Is this law already abolished? If it is abolished, then I am a bit embarrassed." It shouldn't be boring. After a few hundred years, I suddenly got together to open a congress, and announced the cancellation of a development bill that had no effect on it?"
"Rebecca's history lesson...in fact, it was taught by me, but the results have always been bad," Herti explained with a blush, and then quickly answered Gao Wen's question. "In addition, the law you mentioned is of course Not abolished - no one dared to abolish it while the Cavaliers were still alive, and after the death of the last Blazer, this decree became part of the glory, representing the belief that mankind reinvents civilization, and even more No one will abolish it."
The Viscount Andrew took the second half of the sentence: "But instead of abolishing, those historians and bloggers will write a book for it..."
Gao Wen shrugged: "So I suddenly had a surprise and an accident for them - this law of seven hundred years ago is finally useful."
Viscount Andrew stared at Gao Wen, especially focusing on the pioneer's sword in the other hand: "I admit, this is indeed a ... I never thought of the idea... If you use permanent development rights, you really have to revitalize The possibility of the Cecil family, but IMHO - this will be a very long-term sale. Do you know how many landlords can be opened up on the border of the Kingdom?"
"Probably know some, my descendants have already told me on the road," Gao Wen looked at Herti and Rebecca next to him. "There are basically places where people can be raised, and there is no land." They are all Yulin poisonous marshes, or they are bordered by the wasteland.
“So what are you going to do?” Viscount Andrew spread his hand. “Where do you want to reinvigorate your family?”
"That is the problem I have to consider," Gao Wen smiled. What emerged from his mind was a picture of the earth from a height, which is absolutely impossible for human beings in this era, and the precision and breadth are almost mad. Satellite map, which is deeply stored in the memory of Gao Wen, although it may be an obsolete record several years or even a decade ago (after all, Gao Wen has been disconnected from the overlooking view), but it is enough for Gao Wen Pointing out the way forward, "You just need to think about it... One has participated in the second development, and it still has a lot of investment value to be able to maintain the permanent development right."
Andrew bowed his head and thought about it for the first time.
For a long time, he broke the silence: "If your permanent pioneering power is really recognized by the royal family, then my little viscount will be happy to help you as much as you can."
The standard sleek aristocratic speech - no flaws, no rules, can show a certain respect.
Rebecca opened his eyes: "It is hard to be a permanent pioneering right recognized by the founding fathers and ancestors of all countries. Will the current King of the Kings not recognize it?!"
Gao Wen smiled and glanced at the less mature junior: "He certainly doesn't want to admit it - in fact, he probably won't recognize my identity, even if Charlie I came out to prove that I am true, then His Majesty the King and his staff may still pray that I will die on the spot and then be buried back into the ancient tombs of the Kingdom.
“Why?!” Rebecca felt that the three views were challenged. “You are the founding father! It is a person who is dedicated to the temple! The king and the nobles remember you every year. Don’t you want to come back and help the kingdom again. What?"
Gao Wengang wanted to explain it, and he heard the amber on the opposite side of the table: "Because they have three days off!"
While squatting, Miss Half Elf also deliberately squinted at Gao Wen, which caused Herti an angry contempt.
"Don't listen to her nonsense, that's the joke I gave her," Gao Wen waved. "The real reason...Herdy and Andrew should have already figured it out?"
Hetty sighed: "The king will remember the hero, because the image and prestige of the hero can be used to consolidate his rule, but he will never want the hero to come back. Once the hero returns, the image and reputation are no longer What he can control..."
Due to the presence of Andrew, Herti had some more serious reversal words: especially when the king originated from an illegitimate child, and his name was not right.
"So the problem we have to consider is actually clear," Gao Wen looked down at the Pioneer's sword at his waist. "That is... let my permanent development rights take effect."
