Powell's face was filled with deep worries:
"It's this kind of His Highness Sean, the official declaration of war from the Anjou Kingdom has been sent here!"
"Oh? What kind of reason do they start a war?" Sean asked curiously.
Powell spread his hands helplessly: "Their reasons for starting the war are very unreasonable, you should be clear about it."
Powell took out a blood-red, beautifully packaged sheepskin letter and handed it to Sean.
Sean took it and expanded it and looked.
The general meaning in the letter is:
For more than a hundred years, Ryan's grand dukes have frequently used evil means to control the senior management of Rhode Island pirates, allowing pirates to occupy Rhode Island, rob merchant ships, kill and set fire, and created countless horrifying tragedies.
Now that Grand Duke Ryan is captured, the pirates of Rhode Island have escaped from the control of the evil Grand Duke Ryan, and want to become a new person, and have joined the righteous Anjou Kingdom camp.
For justice, the Anjou Kingdom also followed the will of the God of Light, and formally declared war on the Principality of Ryan, completely eliminating the evil country of Ryan!
...
After reading the entire declaration of war, Sean couldn't help but be amazed: "What a good reason to declare war. To be honest, we really can't argue, at least they are already on the commanding heights of morality."
Powell also sighed: "Fortunately we knew their actions more than ten days in advance, otherwise it would be too late to prepare for war now.
Moreover, if this letter of declaration of war is spread, the morale of our soldiers will be greatly reduced."
"Don't worry about them, just prepare for the war with peace of mind. History is written by the victors. As for the morale of the soldiers, we just say that they are false propaganda and fake news."
Sean didn't take the letter of war too much: "Powell, is there anything else?"
After hearing the sentence "History is written by the victors", Powell felt enlightened and kept thinking about it. The more he thought about it, the more he felt it made sense.
But when he heard Sean's question, he immediately came to his senses:
"There is another thing about the residents in the city. The matter of the Anjou Navy and Rhode Island Pirates have spread in the city in the past two days, and the citizens are very panicked.
Many citizens fled Kapoor Port and fled to the northern towns. Most of the residents were still watching, and the whole city was in chaos."
"This is normal." Sean paced slowly inside the house and smiled:
"In fact, 7 days ago, when we asked the nobles for money, this news should have spread, but it has not been spread due to the typhoon.
Now that the typhoon has passed, people should know it too.”
"Your Highness, what should we do?" Powell asked worriedly.
"It's very simple, order your troops to guard the streets and stabilize the people's hearts. Tell the residents of the city that the nobles and troops led by Sean Violet will fight in the city until the last moment! People are in the city, and people are in the city!"
"Okay, Your Highness." Powell replied in a low voice by Sean's momentum.
During the next period, Powell and Sean discussed a few more trivial matters, then said goodbye and left the residence to integrate their troops.
......
At 6 p.m., Sean held a small dinner at his residence.
Those who attended the dinner were all core members of Sean's forces: Windsol, Kardgar, Lothama, Morgan, Okam, Hannar, etc.
Everyone enjoyed the delicious dinner, and talked about work and made specific adjustments to what they would do tomorrow.
In the past, this session was held at the morning meeting, but Sean soon discovered that no one of his generals liked to hold morning meetings. Moreover, Hannar, Occam and Mussoni were night owls, and they could not attend the morning meeting until the early morning.
So Sean canceled the morning meeting and moved the time to the dinner to talk about work.
Except for Sean and Morgan, everyone is from Azeroth, so the atmosphere of the dinner is particularly harmonious.
While eating barbecue with special sauces, Sean listened to Lothama and Morgan report on his work.
Rothama held the plate and ate fruit while saying, "Sir, the three ice making workshops have begun to produce them with full strength. Many big merchants are interested in our cheap and affordable ice cubes and have sent a large number of orders. They don't have to worry about not being able to sell the ice cubes."
"Very good!" Sean stammered while eating the barbecue.
Morgan was eating a strange-looking octopus in his stuttering stutter, and said at this time: "Lord, the five papermaking workshops have been arranged now, but the papermaking machine has not yet been in place."
"It's okay, take your time." Sean replied casually.
"Sir, I have one thing, I don't know if I should ask..." Morgan's expression looked a little confused, and I don't know if it was because the octopus was not delicious.
"What's the matter? Ask."
"That's it." Morgan put down the plate and said seriously:
"We brought a large number of perfume, soap, playing cards and other goods from Hetan Town, but it has been in the warehouse. When will we sell this goods?"
"No rush to sell now." Sean smiled and drank it all with a glass of blueberry juice: "Although we brought a lot of goods, they are all hot goods. If sold, they can be sold out in three or four days.
But we don’t have any supply of supplies, so we can’t close the store after selling it for three or four days, right?”
"You are right." Morgan nodded obediently.
Sean continued to say to Lothemma and Morgan: "You should know, right? The panic in the city has spread recently, and many people have begun to sell houses in large quantities. Now housing prices should have gradually dropped."
Before Rothema had time to pay attention to housing prices, he looked at Morgan. Morgan nodded and replied:
"I know you said this. In the past, many businessmen hoarded a large number of houses waiting for appreciation. Now that the war is coming, the overall house price has fallen by nearly 10% today."
"Don't worry, there will be some drops in the future. I think it can drop at least 60%!" Sean smiled:
"In a few days, when the housing prices drop to a certain level, we will buy a large number of houses, shops, workshops, warehouses, etc.
Of course, you should buy more shops and workshops. These houses are already too high in the hands of big merchants, and the house prices are definitely the most severely falling. Now that we have money, we can even buy ownership of a complete dock.
As for the goods you mentioned by Morgan, it will not be too late to sell them then!"
"I understand, Lord Lord." Morgan nodded: "I will always pay attention to the housing prices in the city these days."
"In the future, most of my energy will be focused on the upcoming war, and I'll ask you two for business!" Sean said seriously.
