i have a shelter.

"Why build these things at such a great cost?"

"Because they are cash cows." George recalled the information he had read recently, and said with some sighs: "The annual income of a baron in Rodunk is not as much as that of a small factory owner in the Moon Kingdom in a few months." !"

However, after a while, it was George's turn to widen his eyes - there was a place called 'Starra Alchemy Workshop', which finally sold for a high price of 10,000+ silver foxes!And there is no magic hub in it!

That small studio is only a few hundred square meters - it may not even be able to accommodate these 30 silver foxes!

After checking the information about this studio, George realized something - the 'decoration' of that studio was comparable to Anthony's first small laboratory underground in Johannes Castle!

Its interior is free from any magical interference, and it is dust-free and constant in temperature.

In addition, the magic power cabin of this studio was originally designed to hold miniature magic hubs.After changing it and installing it, a miniature magic hub can be placed, which can be used as a small wizard tower!

But the studio's real estate accounts for only a fraction of its value.What is really expensive is the technology that the studio has mastered over the years, as well as several permanent contract employees!

'How much did Anthony's laboratory in the Forbidden Academy cost me? '

George put down the documents in his hands numbly.Because everything in the shelter is self-produced.So there is no price standard, and George doesn't know how much Anthony burned.But now it seems that the price of that laboratory is probably sky-high!

Afterwards, George looked through the auction listings and found nothing about demons.After he asked the guide 'Jasmine', he learned.Since this year, the Holy Court has issued relevant decrees prohibiting the sale of these things.

So it only circulates in the black market.

This should be the ghost of the lurkers.Knowing that the shelter uses demonic materials to make a lot of things - of course the Moon Kingdom can do it too.

"When these things flow into the black market, most of them are unprocessed. But colleges can buy them, and cultists and dark wizards can also buy them," Jasmine said.

George nodded. He knew that those demon heads that had not been specially treated could be used to summon demons or resurrect demons!

"Dealing with those cultists has been the main work of the Lord and Her Majesty the Queen these years," Jasmine said.

It seems that in these years, these forces have been fighting openly and secretly.

George asked about the black market price and found that it was three times higher than the shelter's market price.And compared to the demon materials that Alfonso got from the shelter, the price is even lower!

"It seems that in the past two years, the Holy Court has killed quite a few demons."

At this time, a voice sounded from the auctioneer's mouth, and it seemed that an auction item was sold at an extremely high price.Following the completion of this price, there were exclamations and regrets from all the seats in the auction house.There were also people who congratulated the winners.

"What? Are thirty thousand silver foxes so exaggerated?"

"Master" Jasmine reminded: "It's thirty thousand golden lions."

After hearing Jasmine's words, George couldn't help but widen his eyes, and looked at the auction item.Then, he found out that it was just a 'contract' and a few documents.

0685 If you want the only one

George flipped through the auction list and found that those documents were mine development licenses from a bankrupt company, which had about ten years of use left.But the location is in the dead mine area where various magic crystals are abundant, including special crystals such as time-space crystals and Andora crystals.

"Master, this kind of mining has always been gambling. The magic power of the dead mine interferes a lot, and no one knows where and what can be mined in the end. Therefore, the transaction price of the license is often uncertain." Jasmine Flipping through the documents, he said, "But according to the information, the last geology chosen by the bankrupt company is very good. It should have Huiser bismuth ore, hexagonal silver ore and coniferous emerald gold. But Apart from the boss of this company, there are only a few consortiums who know about this situation. 3 golden lions are negotiated by all parties, and the price is actually extremely low.”

George nodded. These minerals are all priced like gold, so if they are really dug out, it is not mining, but digging for golden lions.And although this kind of precious minerals are all associated mines, as long as one ton of 3 golden lions is dug out, it will pay back its mother's money.

If the company really won the lottery in the end, then ten years, not to mention Yueguo's mining efficiency.It is manual mining, and throwing away all the messy iron and copper mines, that is also buying a cash cow

Unfortunately, the person who founded this company was a gold digger who sold his family property.Although he is a nobleman, he has no roots.So after winning the lottery, he was targeted by various big consortia.

These consortiums are secretly operating together while secretly operating.It can be said that for this piece of fat, it has been in operation for several years.

Facing a group of bloodthirsty lions, a small nobleman has no power to resist.Although his company discovered a gold mine, it could not purchase equipment, nor did it buy his goods.In addition, people in the company continue to leave and change jobs.In the past few years, the company can be said to be unable to make ends meet, and the boss can no longer support it.

For the nobleman, the 3 golden lions can only be said to be a return of capital.However, during the transaction, the boss of the consortium promised him a title and a piece of fiefdom. With this fiefdom and title, plus the 1 golden lions after his bankrupt company changed hands, the foundation and the foundation of starting a new business The funds will be there.

After that, as long as the bigwigs of the consortium support him a little bit in the future, his family's resurgence will be just around the corner.

On the one hand, he went bankrupt and offended a group of bigwigs.One side is the opportunity to join a consortium.Nobles know very well what they can eat in their mouths, and what they will be stuffed to death after eating.So it was finally compromised.

There is also an agreement among the three consortiums, one of which is that after obtaining this license, they will be able to secretly buy shares with the license and enjoy dividends.

One is that the company that bought the nobleman and that piece of land will be the actual new owner, and also get a piece of land.

The other is to have the exclusive right to purchase 50 minerals and the most favorable purchase right for minerals. Whether it is processed and resold to the market or used by oneself, the benefits are huge.

It can be said that the three lions all ate the most wanted meat.

Counting the pre-operation, license auction, and company acquisitions, the total amount is less than 5 golden lions, which is just the cost of arming a thousand knights. If it is a magic knight, it is more than 200.

But the value of this piece of fat is ten times greater than the cost

In this meat-sharing, other followers did not dare to participate even if they knew some news.

So, today's scene was actually a bloody lions' meat split.

"Which consortium bought that company?" George couldn't help but envy.Judging from the information, the person who bought the company was a noble from Saudi Arabia.

"Master, it's you," Jasmine said, "The shareholders are the new nobles, people from the queen's side. The one with the most favorable right is an academy that actually bans the sanctuary, because they have the best equipment and engineers, so Any mines will get them a piece of the pie. The nobles sold them very expensive things, and the amount of development was very low. So they were offended. This matter is mainly due to the forbidden Sanctuary's choice."

George opened his mouth wide, and it took him a long time to react.

"His Highness Irene said that you will be very happy. She also said that if you are happy, we can unite with the royal family and kick out the Forbidden Sanctuary."

George knew that Irene had made a statement this time.Originally, she operated the mine, probably for her younger brother.

"In addition, she has prepared things such as the magic hub. It is in the auction of several alchemy workshops before. It will be transferred to the shelter later."

George nodded, thinking to himself: Although this girl often makes troubles, she is really efficient in handling things.

Some of the licenses after that are also various, such as commercial, auction houses, and casinos.There is also a permission to plunder, and even a permission to travel to and from Forbidden Island. Without this permission, Forbidden Sanctuary will not trade with business groups.

However, George cared more about buyers and sellers than auction items.Although most of this information is kept confidential, in Jasmine's hands, there are extremely detailed information.

After inquiring, George discovered that many of these transactions were related to the Mithril Treasury. They sold a lot and bought a lot.

The sum of these transaction figures is terrifying.It is enough to empty out the family property of a great noble generation.

To be so rich, maybe the more than 100 million golden lions, to His Majesty Theodoric, is not a big number cough cough.George recalled the matter of evading debts again.

Comparatively speaking, in the Yueguo auction this month, luxury items and jewelry are very few magical items, which are all traded in the academy circle, and the real luxury goods have been packaged as brands by Yueguo

So things of this level can't get in. There are quite a few pawn shops in this auction.

However, in today's auction, there are indeed several famous works of art.It can be regarded as allowing George to see the degree of local tyrants and luxury of the people of Yue Kingdom.

Among them was an oil painting that sold for 20 silver foxes

It was painted like a stream of consciousness artwork, and George couldn't read it at all.

It wasn't until he opened his eyesight and tried his best to understand it that he could vaguely see that the content seemed to be that the knight killed the demon, and then rescued the princess' soul from the demon's body.But no matter how you look at it, this painting looks like a child's graffiti or a psychopath directly splashed it with dye
