Frank, of course, didn't really let Don take the money to buy the mine.

He's just insisting on the face of the Kadir family.

If they don't want any money, they give the mine to Donn, then how will their Kadir family get mixed up in Alinks in the future?

Therefore, Don En has to take some money to make sense.

It's just that this amount of money stumped Don.

From the map of the mines that Frank pulls out, Don has his eye on a mine.

Helldholm.

Hellholm wasn't a long way from Ellington, north of Bayne, on the northeastern edge of Ellington's territory, and it would take four days for horse-drawn carriages - with a little care, the asphalt road would be paved and traffic would be faster.

Of course, the most important thing is that the proven reserves of this magic crystal mine are not small, enough for Tang En to digest for a while.

But the price is ......

"Five million gold coins."

Frank's statement of this number made Donn extremely painful.

Five million gold coins, buying a large magic crystal mine for almost one-tenth of the price is not an ordinary cheap, it is like picking up a mine for nothing on the side of the road.

Although the market for mana crystals is currently so large, the potential total value of a small mana crystal mine that has been fully developed is at least at the level of tens of millions of gold coins, not to mention that the scale of this mine that Tang En fancies is not small, and at most it is calculated in hundreds of millions.

If it weren't for Don now taking the lead, how could he possibly get such a good price?

The problem, however, is this. This is basically a price that Tang En can't even take.

Even if the Tang Chamber of Commerce is making money every day, Ellington is still very short of money, whether it is to buy building materials. Whether it's imported food, or a lot of labor welfare expenses, it costs a lot of gold.

Driven by Donne's policies, Ellington is now making a way with money, exchanging 200 percent of the gold consumption for 500 percent of the speed of development.

Is it worth it?

Value!

But at this rate of spending, how can Ellington, which currently only relies on the Datang Chamber of Commerce to make profits, keep up with the economy?

"That's my bottom line."

Frank, who was expressionless, knocked on the table: "You can be shameless." But we Kadir still have face. ”

Don thought for a moment, got up and said, "Give me a day to raise money." ”

Frank seemed surprised, but in fact sneered: "Not even five million gold coins? Baron Donne. It seems that your territory is not ordinary barren! Ha ha...... Sorry, I'm talking a bit straight. ”

Tang Enchao waved his hand indifferently: "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't even care so much about the magic crystal mine, you know." You archduke can't see the garbage in your eyes. It's a treasure to me. ”

This trick of belittling himself and elevating the other party made Frank feel very happy: "I can give you three days, after all, I know that the business alliance is a bit contradictory to you." ”

"That's all a small problem, it's not a big problem, I'm leaving."

As soon as Don waved his hand, he left alone in style.

After Don left, Frank's face turned gloomy again.

What exactly does he want to do? A wild mage who is likely to be a grandmaster-level mage, what will he lack? What does he want? Deliberately to show off your muscles? Or was his purpose the mines of Hellholm?

No matter how much Frank pondered, his vision was limited. He also couldn't have imagined that Tang En was about to open a new era of magical energy, and in this era. If you master the magic crystal, you will master the energy, that is, you will master the wealth, and you will master the power!

After Don left the Kadir family, he directly asked the coachman to turn around and go to the Foel family.

Aubury had just returned from the Royal Quarter, and before the stool was warm, he heard the news that Don had asked to see him.

"Donne? Didn't he go back to Ellington? ”

Obery raised an eyebrow: "Call him over." ”

"I'm already here."

A smiling Don pushed the door in.

Obury was dissatisfied: "Don't you know any etiquette?" ”

"It's all your own people, what's polite, huh, please have tea."

With a wave of his hand, Donn tossed the teapot over.

"Hell your own people......"

Aubury was full of complaints, this guy really didn't think of himself as an outsider, but after pouring a cup of Donn's hot tea, Aubury's whining disappeared.

"Good tea!"

Obery exclaimed, and after taking a sip of hot tea, he felt that the aging cells in his body had come back to life, and his whole body was excited.

Obury's fiery gaze was on the teapot at the moment—oh no, it was Donn.

"Whew-"

Don shuddered, "Don't look at me with that look." ”

Aubery rubbed his fingers and smiled: "Son-in-law, don't you have anything to honor me?" ”

"Don't scream, Elsa and I are innocent."

Don waved his hand, although he didn't care, but the girls cared, in case Elsa knew, he would be annoyed and angry...... How innocent I am.

"Okay, okay, there's no outsider here, don't pretend."

Aubery laughed heartily, picked up the teacup and drank it, every sip of hot tea in his stomach, he felt a few years younger, a cup of tea, he felt that if Adrien was in front of him, he could knock him out of Arinks with one punch!

Don shrugged and sat down across from Aubury, "I'm here to borrow money." ”

Obury, who was covered in comfort, asked casually, "How much?" ”

"Five million gold coins."

Obury almost took a sip of hot tea and sprayed Donn in the face: "How much?" ”

"Five million, gold."

"Wait! I'm not going to tell you what you want this money for, why do you think I have so much spare money to lend you? ”

"Cut, I said it earlier, it turns out that you are also a poor ghost."

Don pouted: "Come on, I'll go find Grand Duke Adrien." ”

"He? Ha, he's poorer than me! ”

Aubery said disdainfully: "That guy wants to maintain the demeanor of the Grand Duke. But he doesn't even do a lot of door-to-door business, and his life is tight, do you still count on him? ”

Don was embarrassed. Completely embarrassed, these two pillars of the Illus Empire turned out to be poor ghosts!

"You can't even take out five million gold coins, and you're embarrassed to say that you're the Grand Duke!?"

"Pay attention to your words, it's not that you can't take it out, but you don't need to take it out!"

Orbury corrected Donne's words: "I and Adrien's gold coins will be used to feed ...... Oh. You know, all that can be lent to you is inconsequential spare money. Five million, we really can't take it out. ”

"What about Victor?"

"Your Majesty Victor? He should be fine......"

Obury frowned slightly: "After all, there are many years of heritage, and no one knows what hole cards the royal family has, speaking of which." Didn't you spend a billion gold coins on Lord Ellington before? You know best whether Victor has money or not. ”

Don smiled bitterly in his heart. It's unclear whether there is such a thing, let alone whether the money is deposited or not.

"In that case......

Don rolled his eyes, thought of a good solution, and smiled very brightly: "Grand Duke of Aubery, can you help me contact Grand Duke Adrien, and His Majesty Victor?" I guess the four of us should sit down and talk...... Something about gold coins. ”

Obury was stunned: "Do you want us to lend you money from the three parties?" ”

"That's not the point, the point is. Do you want to get rich? ”

Don said in a good time: "If you want to make a fortune, call the Grand Duke of Adrien." Let's go and meet His Majesty Victor. ”

Aubury hesitated.

Because he didn't know if what Don was saying was true or false.

There is no doubt that Don has pinched the lifeblood of the royal faction - like him, he is very short of money, and he is still short of big money.

If Don really had a way to make a lot of money, Victor would definitely be very interested.

At this moment, Obery thought of the Datang Chamber of Commerce and the miracle of Donne's net profit of millions of gold coins a day.

"Okay!"

Obury gritted his teeth: "I'll believe you this time!" ”

Don smiled brightly: "That's great." ”

Ordinary people want to see His Majesty Victor, it must not be so simple, not to mention when the appointment is scheduled, just the layers of inspections will waste a day's time, but with Obury and Adrien with them, these troubles will be saved.

They are the pillars of this country, and if even they could not be trusted, the country would be doomed.

When he met Victor, he was working on some documents in his study, but after seeing Don and them, Victor immediately stopped what he was doing, got up with a smile on his face, and wanted to take the initiative to meet him.

“——”

However, when he noticed the surprised eyes of Aubury and Adrian, Victor controlled his abnormal emotions well, coughed lightly, stopped and took a book from the bookshelf next to him, and said casually, "Wait a moment." ”

It's dangerous......

Victor breathed a sigh of relief, almost blurting out just now.

After pretending for a while, Victor raised his head: "Two dukes, and ...... Baron Donne, please be seated, old Tom, and serve tea—"

As soon as he shouted this, Victor froze there.

Don had already met Tom Sr......

Sure enough, when Don saw Old Tom with the teacup, the smile on his face immediately became a little strange.

Old Tom is actually Victor's close servant?

In other words, 77 Queen Street is likely to have been sold to him by Victor?

Why is he so good to himself?

Donn's eyes narrowed slightly, his instincts telling him that Victor must know some secrets...... Even secrets about him that even he himself did not know.

Old Tom shook his head slightly, and His Majesty Victor was also so busy that he forgot about it.

After serving Don and the others tea, Old Tom left silently, as if he had never seen Donn before.

Seeing that Victor and Old Tom didn't mean to break it, Don wasn't stupid enough to take the initiative to mention it.

Perhaps this is some kind of latent tacit understanding. (To be continued.) )
