Victor sat in a tavern box in Winterless City, looking through the nearest trade bill.

Unlike the noisy hall downstairs, this is undoubtedly a high-end house. The floor is covered with plush blankets and a kang under the soft couch. From entering the house to lying down, you won’t feel a hint of chill on your feet.

According to his requirements, the store also installed a wooden table board next to the soft couch, which did not hinder the rest of the day, and could be used as a low table when needed. Especially in winter when the wind and snow are howling, sitting on the couch can be regarded as a pleasure.

At this moment, he was placed on his left hand with a slice of roasted chicken breast, and on the right was a glass of dark purple Chaos drink. Regardless of the taste, this meal alone is worth ten golden dragons.

As an open jewelry businessman, the four sons of the Lothar family are actually nothing to him, which is a huge sum of money in the eyes of ordinary people. Spending a golden dragon to allow himself to enjoy the comfort brought by wealth has become his subconscious action, and whether it is worth it or not is not within his consideration.

Since visiting the first show of giant machinery called "Train" two months ago, he has bought a house on the third floor of the tavern and used it as his commercial location.

Of course, with his wealth, it was not difficult to buy one or two properties, but Victor prefers this feeling of being in a quiet and hustle and bustle at the bottom. Compared to the big houses that traditional aristocrats like, he always yearns for places like taverns.

It is not just to facilitate business negotiations with various caravans.

If there is something that can best reflect the vitality and prosperity of a city, then it must be a tavern located in a downtown area.

After turning the last page, Victor closed the sheepskin book in his hand and picked up the crystal clear drink. Under the reflection of the candlelight, the purple-red liquid was like a beautiful gem.

Recently, there has been a little trouble on the bill.

That is, he hasn't received any gems and rough stones in the Western Region for a long time

The battle for the king caused a huge change in the situation of Graycastle. The city was destroyed by war and the nobles no longer had fiefs. These changes caused the prices of luxury goods to fall again and again. If they wanted to maintain their original profits, they had to increase sales. But without the raw stones, the jewelry craftsmen under his command would not be able to turn into gems.

Changge Fortress was originally a large area for his raw stones, but after Roland Wimbledon announced the establishment of the Winterless City, the source of raw stones became increasingly scarce. He had visited Changge District several times and found that all the mining areas there had been taken into account by the young king. It was not surprising that money was the commonality of the lord. Strangely, after the outputs were shipped to the border area, they seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

Yes, he has not found a jewelry store in Wudong City so far.

Either sell the raw stones to make profits or invest a sum of money to make the gems. The lord's methods are nothing more than these two. The former can earn the difference, while the latter can cooperate in selling whether it is a sales channel or further process it into jewelry. He has the strength that the other party cannot refuse.

But the king didn't even leave him the way to intervene.

It was like Roland Wimbledon didn't plan to make money with gems.

This made Victor a little distressed.

He also tried to sell the made jewelry in Wudongcheng, and the result was also very bad. Civilians everywhere could not afford such expensive goods that cost dozens of golden dragons. They have never been only provided to wealthy noble families to meet their needs to show off and compare at banquets. But there are no nobles in the traditional sense here!

That's right, such a huge new city, but lacks interest in jewelry, which was something he had not expected.

I came to Wudong many times and only bought goods here, but rarely sold them. The accounts on the sheepskin book tended to be one-sided.

This is undoubtedly an unhealthy signal.

The emergence of the train has made Victor realize that the future has arrived, but it is not evenly distributed. In order to better expand his business, he naturally has to go to the place closest to the future. It is also his inevitable choice to shift the focus of his business from the old king capital to the new king capital.

The question is what should we do if there is no such industry in the future?

He is not short of money, and even if he does nothing, he can enjoy a rich life. But he must prove his ability in the trade industry, leaving nothing to say to those merchants who covet family and "black money".

He cannot let his father down.

Just as Victor was thinking about how to solve this problem, the noise downstairs suddenly increased several times, and even the floor slabs trembled slightly.

It's still early tonight, so it's not the time for the drunkards to have fun. Is something happening?

He rang the bronze bell calling the maid.

"I'm disturbing," soon a beautiful woman pushed the door and walked in, "What are your instructions?"

The moment the door opened, the noise suddenly increased a lot, and he seemed to hear someone reading something loudly.

Victor pointed out of the door, "What's wrong with the downstairs?"

"Sorry, sir, did they disturb you?" The maid smiled apologetically, "This is nothing to do. After all, today is the day for newspapers to be released, and everyone is rushing to buy it."

"Report...paper?" he repeated awkwardly.

"Yes, your Majesty issued an announcement a week ago saying that it would use it to replace the square's publicity board. Everyone has been looking forward to it for a long time and wants to see what the newspaper is."

Haha, is there a new thing released? It is worthy of being the new capital, and Victor immediately became interested, "How much does it sell?"

"I heard that one of them is ten bronze eagles."

"Buy one for me too... no, buy ten copies!" he said immediately.

"Yes." The maid ran downstairs not long after, and soon ran back panting, "Grand, sir... all the newspapers sent by him have been sold out."

"So fast?" Victor blinked in surprise. If it was a commodity, it would be a little easier to sell. But this would not make him difficult. Isn't it just spending money? "Then buy it from the buyer. Money is not a problem!"

He shook his hand and threw a golden dragon into his maid's arms, "As long as you can buy it, the rest will be yours!"

"Yes! Sir!" the girl said with a smile.

Half a quarter of an hour later, six layers of gray and white newspapers were handed to him.

"The price below has risen to twenty silver wolves, I have tried my best..." said the maid Ai Ai.

Did you see someone raising the price in a large number of acquisitions? The other party's expression obviously exposed her thoughts in her heart. Although she had not completed the task, she was reluctant to hand over the remaining money. Victor didn't care, "What's your name?"

"Linglong, sir."

"You keep the money," he shook the newspaper in his hand. "Also, can you read this with me?"

Since there are both delicious food and wine, the things that are missing are naturally self-evident. The other party's breathing and undulating chest and the fine sweat coming out of the tip of his nose all exuded a youthful and energetic atmosphere. After seeing many noble women, this slightly clumsy girl has a unique flavor. Moreover, the other party is a resident of Wudongcheng. If you encounter any confusion, you can ask her what it means.

"Master Victor..." The maid lowered her head, a hint of blush appeared on her cheeks. After a while, she bit her lip and nodded, and replied in a low voice, "I do."
