Chapter 130: Temporary Peace (1)

Chapter 130: Short Peace (Part 1)

After reporting the sad news, the Baron distributed pensions one by one and gave everyone a gift.

These gifts were not worth much and were brought by Sardinford's Chamber of Commerce. Therefore, some servants who died after their families went out and finished their work and held a dinner party. Although some of them had red and swollen eyes, they seemed to have cried.

After a long journey, Fang Xin was obviously really hungry, so he calmly got on the seat and was in the second position. At this time, the Baron's family came, including two children of a man and a woman, as well as Sardinford and his wife.

Although the sun was still shining, the two candles on the brass lamp plates on the top of the living room had been inserted and ignited one by one.

The light illuminates the table, the fire in the fireplace, the blazing burning.

Everyone sat down and the servant started serving the dishes.

"Today I am all my relatives, only one guest, this is Hamblin. Knight Fix, a magician, and a member of the Fix family. I come from the Kingdom of Sample, own five ships and seven real estates. This time I meet pirates, come back alive, and make money all depends on the Knight of Hamblin."

During the above period, the Baron obviously changed his verbal talk and told his wife and relatives how much Fang Xin was. Everyone present bowed and expressed their gratitude, and Fang Xin had to return the gift.

"This is Sardinford, and is a member of my family. I am the same grandfather as him. I am now a member of the Obring Chamber of Commerce and the president of the bank in this town."

Sardinford and Fang Xin greeted each other.

"My name is Sardinford, and I am honored to serve you! I have heard about your deeds just now, it is amazing." Sardinford said: "You are not only a knight, a qualified captain, but also a magician and a successful businessman."

"Oh, there is nothing. As long as you can survive the wind and waves and pirates on the ocean, any ship that meets the season can make a huge profit." Fang Xin said modestly.

"Yes, the wind and waves on the sea meet the needs of seasons and items, and there are pirates. Oh, the first two can be solved, and the pirate problem is really difficult to solve." The Baron said to Sardinford: "Aren't you? You are from the Chamber of Commerce and should know the situation better than me."

"Yes, that's it. On the port, glass, ceramic ware, decorations, wine, weapons, copper and iron, and continuous trade with sugar, tobacco, spices, gems, etc., has made money come and go, and many people have become very rich in a short period of time.

"Sadinford replied: "But therefore, pirates are like fish in water, robbing a boat. Although they have to be dealt with at a low price, they can make money by counting the ship and cargo together in one go."

"The most hateful thing is that the struggle between kingdoms has brought this pirate trade to a higher level. In order to gain wealth, the kingdom even acquiesced to ships to engage in plunder wars, and the kingdom wharf uses to digest stolen goods and obtain a lot of profits from it. Because of the convenient channels for selling stolen goods, the pirates have no worries, and many kingdom nobles have participated in these actions."

"Yes, maritime trade is very dangerous!" The baron said with emotion: "But once money is equivalent to the annual income of the territory."

"However, dear baron, if you have the principal, you can actually invest. Now all industries are developing. As long as you invest carefully, generally speaking, the annual interest rate is 10%!" Sardinford said: "Now all banks are implementing deposit interest systems to absorb a large amount of funds to meet their needs. If you invest in the bank, you can get 5% of the profit per year, which is relatively small."

"Take the money to the Chamber of Commerce, oh, a Chamber of Commerce that can go bankrupt at any time, and there is no mortgage yet. This idea is really not a good idea, don't you think?"

"Yes, Baron, of course, the Chamber of Commerce will go bankrupt, but you should believe that a reputable Chamber of Commerce will not have any problems within a few years, you said yes!"

"That's true, dear Hamblin, what do you think?"

"Yes, what do you think?"

"Okay, okay, let me say something!" Fang Xin pondered and said, "There can be some investments between the Chamber of Commerce and the Bank, but it cannot be concentrated together."

"Everyone should understand that a few hundred years ago, borrowings were largely recovered, yes, especially to gentlemen with titles and territories, but now a chamber of commerce rarely extends to a hundred years. Who knows when it will go bankrupt? So, if I want to hear what I think - it is to take out a quarter, or a third, so that you can gain benefits without losing your capital."

It was obvious that this passage was very in line with the wishes of the people present, so the Baron said thank you enthusiastically and discussed how to invest in the following time. It was obvious that although I made some money this time, I didn’t have much money this time because I wanted to buy goods. However, Sardinford didn’t mind at all. Finally, he decided that if he made money next time, he could actually deposit 2,000 Jinleke in the bank for one year.

After the meal, he did not play cards. When Fang Xin said that he was tired of the journey, the owner was a little secretly happy - he was really tired, so he announced his disbandment, and Fang Xin was taken to the room by a maid.

This maid is wearing a maid suit with lace. Ah, it must be explained that in fact, ordinary noble families have this standard maid suit. Although it is not unchanged, this kind of clothing has not changed for 200 years.

There were bookshelfs in the room, and the maid brought milk tea, snacks, and even cigars, and lighted candles, bowed and said, "Sir, I'm nearby. If you have something to do, you can call me."

"I understand." Fang Xin glanced at the candle, Well, this candle can be lit for an hour.

I walked to the bookshelf and pulled out a book.

Oh, it's a religious book, yes, touch another one, it's a biography of historical celebrities

——In this era, knowledge has been quite popular. At least among the aristocratic class, the era in which knights and nobles do not need to be literate has long passed.

Of course, it is very rare for servants to read, so most industries that require knowledge in this era were held by the aristocratic side branches and second sons.

Looking through this celebrity, ah, I really am a celebrity - Isaac!

According to the book, Isaac has a pair of deep, wild eyes and a thick and big beard.

Two hundred years ago, he was born into a knight family. At that time, the Kingdom of Brees was in a state of turmoil and was in a long-term battle with the Kingdom of Rescia, who was his old enemy.

Sixteen years later, at the age of sixteen, he entered the army and began his legendary career throughout his life.

Because of his bravery in combat, he was soon appointed as the captain of ten people by McKifer, the commander of the 11th Regiment of the Kingdom where he was. He followed McKifer faithfully for two years.

Later in a battle, he killed the enemy's knights, which gave him a promotion and became the captain of the 100-man team. This promotion quickly paved the way for his military career.

In the next five years, he made many military achievements and quickly promoted from a captain to a general. He commanded the army to fight. His personal strength continued to become stronger. He finally won the title of Golden Knight and became one of the strongest warriors and generals in the kingdom. However, this man was cruel and rude to the nobles and the parliament. He killed all prisoners, even suspicious and killed his subordinates. In a battle, he fell into a trap and was killed.

Afterwards, Isaac was found to have 30 wounds on his body, and twenty years later, the king posthumously named him the Marshal of the Kingdom.

Fang Xin read it, just sneered and said nothing. This kind of story is too ordinary, it is just the stupidity of the person involved. He didn't even want to ask what the truth was, so he yawned and pulled the curtain open, and suddenly the moonlight spread in.

Walking to the window and looking down, there is a garden not far away. Of course, it is winter now, and basically no flowers are blooming.

Well, it’s really boring to follow the steps like this, Fang Xin thought so.

Under the current circumstances, you can make a lot of money within five years, and the title may be able to climb to the baron's position - as long as you are willing to spend money to buy land.

Fortunately, land is relatively cheap in this era, because the business is initially developed, but the real estate is not developed enough.

As for magic, you can be promoted to level one level every year within five years to about level 7, while the warrior level must be around level 10. During this period, the island will not launch anything, but will only penetrate into the mainland secretly - a relatively peaceful day.

Thinking of this, Fang Xin smiled and closed it, and then fell asleep. He was not a god, and he did not know that in the distant city of Buying, an old man had arrived in the city and was entertained by the jazz.
