Power and Empire Chapter 81: The sincerity of the Lida family
The fat man watched with a surprised look as Crolithart strode in from the outside, followed by a young nobleman with a bookish face.
In the impression of the fat man, even if Crolitsat is not a completely **** proletarian revolutionist, at least he is an angry youth who hates the nobility
has never shown good looks to the nobles in public, and even very aggressive in many cases, in the words of Crolithat
"The nobleman is the parasite of this world, the world would be cleaner without the nobleman!"
But now I actually saw Crolitsart with a nobleman,
is like seeing a dozing mouse next to a cat, making the fat man confused too
Could this guy also be shot down by a noble's sugar-coated cannonball?
The fat man looked at Crolitsat’s dark face with a bit of drunkenness, and muttered to himself
"My lord, this is Lidarcus from the largest business family in Jelp, and is the future heir of the Lida family
This time, in the process of taking over the Jelp area, his subordinates received strong support from the Lida family, and they completely smashed the counterattack against the Samor’s dissatisfied aristocratic coalition. In order to send the sincerity of the Lida family! "
Crolithat looked at the fat man with a puzzled look, knowing what his lord was thinking,
bent over with an awkward face, pointed to the young nobleman next to him and introduced
"The Lida family in Jelp?"
Fatty listened to this familiar name, and felt like he had heard it there
suddenly felt a throbbing in my heart, and quickly got up from his seat, watching the young nobleman ask.
"Are you the heir of the Lida family that straddles Vijay and Swadian, a member of the largest arms family in the South?"
Hearing the fat man’s straightforward words, the young nobleman was not only lifeless,
respectfully grabbed the embarrassed Crolitsat and bent over in response
" What the lord said was before, and now everyone knows that the largest arms manufacturer in the south is the Marquis Dustin of Samor,
It is said that the weapons piled up in the Samor Fortress filled ten huge warehouses, enough to equip thousands of elite soldiers.
Countless black ore is piled up to form a towering iron mountain, it takes half an hour to climb up,
The firelight sputtered when thousands of craftsmen started casting at the same time can illuminate half of the sky.
The city of weapons, "Samoy" not only resounds throughout the entire Wiija, it is also famous in the military power of Swadian
Compared with adults, our Lida family’s wealth is just a small workshop in the countryside"
The fat guy was very comfortable being slapped by the flattering of the young nobles. This fat guy has always had a soft temper or not, he asked in a gentle tone
"Hey, don't just say good things, what can you do if the Lida family sends you this time?"
Seeing the fat man’s attitude eased, Lidarcus quickly took out a pile of colorful roster from him and handed it to the fat man respectfully
"My lord, this is a letter of surrender from our Lida family,
In order to show that our Lida family is willing to submit to the adults, we specially asked the young ones to send this list of all the family properties,
Our Lida family is willing to take out half of the equity and rebar monopoly every year as our sincerity in cooperation"
"Half of the proceeds! Rebar monopoly right!"
Fatty can’t sit still anymore, almost fainted by the pie falling from the sky
It’s no wonder that even the rich haters like Crolithart were moved by others, because the things they brought out were too weighty.
Others don’t know this Lida family, but the fat guy knows
This is a colleague, so the fat man’s tone was not friendly at first
Although the colleagues are enemies, although they are also selling weapons and equipment, the gap between the two is not generally large
Fatty walks on a grassroots route, selling simple weapons, ordinary equipment such as locks,
The target is just the grassroots such as peasants and mercenaries
The Lida family has followed the elite upper-level route. The fat man doesn’t know how much they earn in a year
But the fat man knew that 80% of the rebar needed for the Knight Armour of the Wikiah Kingdom was sold by the Lida family
This arbitrary monopoly is enough to move everyone
Compared with others, the fat man is like a small shop with "one yuan per piece" hanging on the street,
The Lida family is a luxury brand that specializes in the Jordan chain brand, which is totally different from the past.
In the face of the rich heritage of the Lida family that has been with us for a century, the rich and powerful Satsuma upstarts should also bow their heads
Not only does have its own independent arms smuggling network that spans the two countries, but it is also the only commercial giant in the Vekia Kingdom that has the technology of heavy armored knight armor rebar forging
According to intelligence, this Lida family also has its own private army, with a total of 500 heavily armed knights.
This proud military power is also the reason why Fatty didn’t move the Lida family when he moved into Gerber.
"If you can get the support of the Lida family, the entire Jelp area will be as stable as a golden soup. Not only can you get a huge arms network, but you can also get the highest technology rebar forging and rolling technology. This is simply a delivery. Good thing!"
Fatty was excited in his heart
took over the family roster from Lidarcus, and pressed it heavily on the palm of his hand,
This weight adds to the fat man’s affection for the Lida family
Although I just flipped through it casually, it can still be seen from the complicated shop names in this thick account book.
The Lida family’s business network spreads throughout the big city of Wichia, and even has offices in the far north Kujit and South Rhode.
This is a truly continental-level smuggling network. The former smuggling crocodile Lidastorf was just a kid who was just starting out in front of the Lida family.
In the second half of last year alone, the Lida family earned 600,000 gold coins from the sale of rebar.
There are nearly 30,000 sets of other weapons and equipment, and the sales revenue is nearly one million. The dead Marquis Isa is the main customer inside
Fatty hasn't recalled from the horror of the data at the front of the roster, his hand flipping the account book suddenly stopped, pointing to a strange name, and asked curiously
"Just what? What does this Kusakis equipment headquarters do? Why do you need to allocate 100,000 gold coins every year for funding?"
Lidarcus saw the fat man’s fingers stop, and the corners of his mouth were bitter,
The family wanted to hide this secret in the vast account books, but it never escaped the eyes of Fat Satsuma
Destiny is always changing in the most inconspicuous places, such as the mouthful of the Kusgis equipment main room
"This is the place where the family arranged to support the alchemist!"
"Alchemist? What is he responsible for?"
The fat man asked curiously, for this legendary profession, the fat man was at a loss
"They are talents hired by the family from all over the country with a lot of money. Most of them are experts in steel forging and rolling. The secret of the rebar controlled by the Swadian people was solved by them in ten years!"
Lidarkus’s answer excited the fat man. This Kusgis Equipment General Office is simply the weapons and equipment research room.
What is most precious in this age of rampant steel?
are these wrought steel experts, whoever owns them has the most advanced weapon technology
"I didn't expect the Lida family to have so many good things!"
Fatty sighed with emotion. Compared with other professional families, the simple weapons he has been tinkering with during this period of time really can’t be used.
"Science and technology are the primary productive forces! It seems to be the same in any era"
Take the multi-tube kerosene car that burns Issa golden wool into coke as an example. I don’t know if the temperature is too high or the technology is too poor. The dozen or so iron pipes in the car burned only once. Transformed, now purely there as a frightening thing,
"Counterfeit and fake are killing people!"
Fatty often thinks afterwards
If the Knights of the Golden Fleece hadn’t been frightened at the time, the one who was chased by others now might be him
Fatty closed the account book with lingering fear and put it on the table carefully,
This little action is actually equivalent to acquiescing to the Lida family’s attachment
The fat man stood up, his eyes fixed on Lidarcus and did not speak, Lidarcus was panicked when he was watching
"Let’s talk about it, what is your request? If the Lida family provided me with so many good things for free, it would really insult my IQ!,
Since you have fully demonstrated your sincerity, I will not be stingy with my generosity! There is no such thing as a pie in the sky~IndoMTL.com~Only the exchange of benefits! "
The fat guy looked at Lidarcus and asked
Lidarcus heard the fat man’s question, and finally let go of the heart he had been holding, knowing that this cooperation has basically been successful
I thought that it took me three days and finally took a hunger strike to force my father to make a bold move that has never been done in the Lida family.
is now about to bring the Lida family a bright future, suppressing the excitement of the body, bending over and respectfully responding
" The adults are too far-sighted. Our Lida family is willing to become a vassal of the adults. We don’t have too many requirements. We only hope that the adults can take the four counties of Falcon, Satyrdo, Samor and Djerber. Give us the right to mine the scope of the mine"
The conditions put forward by Lidarcus didn’t seem excessive, but the exposed ambition made the fat man hesitant
The Lida family owns the best weapon forging technology, and now owns the mining rights in four counties. This is basically a trust monopoly organization with one-stop production and sales
The memory of the fat man’s later generations, this monopolistic organization with huge resources, can even affect the change of state power
And now, I will contribute to the formation of this organization.
The Lida family is different from the Zivadin Business Alliance. It has strict family management, a huge business network, and the income of the Forby Kingdom
Fatty knows that as long as he nods his head, a new class will be on the political stage from now on. The name of that class is a businessman,
Seeing the fat man hesitating on his face, Lidarcus was afraid that the fat man would regret it, so he quickly added
"As long as the adults agree to our request, the Lida family will immediately provide a thousand sets of rebar knight armor as a dividend for the first half of the year, and will also provide a hundred elite knights to the Samor army to perform the Lida family's vassal obligations."
