After the winter ended, the nobles who fled the border town were always thinking about the confiscated land.

Some nobles tried to go back and ask Owen for their territories, but as you can imagine, they were all ruthlessly driven away, saying that they gave up their lands voluntarily.

After confirming that the lord was serious, these nobles had no place to vent their grievances, so they could only gather together every day and enjoy cursing Owen.

Unwilling to have their territory taken away like this, they collectively complained to Duke Eddie of Dongsheng Fortress, hoping that the Duke would support them and put pressure on Border Guard Town.

However, Duke Eddie has no time to deal with the affairs of the border town at this time. He plans to send troops to interfere with the battle for the throne in the royal capital to pursue his own interests.

Duke Eddie's attention turned to the royal capital. For Border Guard Town, it was a good time to develop secretly.

Of course, it is not so easy to develop a territory.

No, Clive came over again to complain to Owen about the recent financial situation of Border Guard Town.

"My Lord Marquis, you have spent a lot of money to fight against the undead monsters, and now you have established so many projects. Our finances have long been overwhelmed. If this continues, the treasury will be exhausted in a few months.

Wow!"

If you want to develop, you have to invest a lot of money in the early stage. Bianzhu Town is already consuming the treasury accumulated by the Eisen family in the past. Sooner or later, it will be empty.

To this end, Owen must find a way to sell the things he produces in the form of commodities, and then continue to invest the money earned in developing the territory to form a virtuous cycle.

It is unrealistic to rely on internal friction. After all, there are only so many people in Border Guard Town, and the demand is naturally not enough.

"I know." Owen rubbed his forehead, "I'm waiting for people from the Twin Chamber of Commerce. I wonder when they will arrive?"

"Twin Chamber of Commerce?!"

As soon as this chamber of commerce was mentioned, Clive immediately became energetic and asked: "My Lord Marquis, do you plan to sell them the goods recently produced in Bianzhu Town?"

"Yes, that's right." Owen nodded.

The Twins Chamber of Commerce is the largest chamber of commerce that Bianshu Town can contact, and it is very powerful. The president of the chamber of commerce is very honest and is a good business partner.

This chamber of commerce is not a large chamber of commerce in the Morning Light Kingdom, but belongs to the Xiayue Federation.

The Xia Yue Federation is located on the sea to the east of the Morning Light Kingdom and consists of many islands. These islands are controlled by a group of large and small chambers of commerce. They usually run their own affairs, but when encountering some major events, they will unite to deal with the outside world.

Therefore, it can be considered as a large chamber of commerce organization.

The islands controlled by the Twins Chamber of Commerce are called Twin Islands. They are two islands that are very close to each other. They are located in the northernmost part of the Xiayue Federation. Therefore, there is frequent trade with Laifeng Port on the eastern border of the Dawn Kingdom.

Before winter last year, Irving asked them to go to a certain place to buy things that were not available here.

Logically speaking, it's almost time for them to come over and deliver the mission.

At this moment, the bodyguard knocked on the door and came in to report: "Your Majesty the Marquis, the president of the Twins Chamber of Commerce has brought two of his men to see you."

"Just in time!" Owen stood up happily, "Take them to the reception room and let the kitchen prepare some desserts."

After the guards retreated, he looked at Clive again and ordered: "Clive, please prepare the display."

"Yes, I'll do it right away."

Without Owen's explicit instructions, Clive knew what to prepare and hurriedly left the room.

In the reception room, Owen met Heint Marsha, the president of the Gemini Chamber of Commerce, a female businessman.

You must know that it is not easy for outsiders to do business. It is easy to encounter highwaymen when traveling here and there, and business activities may also be obstructed by local snakes. Therefore, female businessmen are rare.

Not to mention, the other party is a very successful businesswoman.

Heint has thick brown curly hair. He looks to be around forty years old. He has wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and his skin is a little rough, probably because he travels frequently.

Seeing Owen, Heint immediately stood up and left his seat, smiling and saying: "We meet again, Lord Marquis."

"President Masha, I have been looking forward to your arrival."

Owen came over with a smile and made an invitation gesture: "Let's sit down and talk."

As soon as the two parties sat down, Owen couldn't wait to ask: "I asked you before, I wonder if you have gained anything there?"

"Honestly, this is the first time I have accepted such a commission. Fortunately, we bought what you wanted from the adventurers in Star Flame Kingdom."

After saying that, Heint turned around and motioned to his subordinates standing at the rear left with his eyes.

The subordinate quickly stepped forward and carefully placed the clay pot in his hand on the table.

Heint extended his palm to the clay pot and introduced: "What is contained here is the unique monster of the Laura Forest - acid slime."

Slime is a low-level monster in this world. The most common one is slime, which can be found all over the world.

In some places, unique types of local slimes will form, such as this strong acid slime, which only appears in the Laura Forest northeast of the Kingdom of Star Flame.

"Oh! Is this acid slime here?" Owen couldn't wait to open it and take a look.

He had just stretched out his hand halfway when Heint quickly stopped him.

"Wait a minute, Lord Marquis, please don't open the lid casually now."

"Why not?" Owen asked.

"You can put your hand on the outer wall of the pot and feel it."

Following Heint's instructions, Owen put his hand on the outer wall of the clay pot and could clearly feel the pot vibrating slightly, as if there was a mass of liquid inside that was constantly stirring.

"What is this?" Owen frowned slightly.

"According to the precautions informed by the seller, the acid slime is currently in a very unstable mood. If you open the lid rashly, it may spray strong acid outside. If you accidentally hurt the Marquis, it will be our fault."

"I see."

Owen took his hand back and asked: "Why did this happen? How should we deal with it in the future?"

"Maybe it was irritated by the bumpy ride here. Leave it in a dark place for a while and it will calm down," Heint replied.

"It seems that you have a good understanding from the seller. In order to avoid danger, I wonder if I could trouble you to write down all the precautions?"

"no problem."

Heint turned to look at another subordinate. The latter took out a roll of parchment and handed it to her. She then handed it to Owen.

"I have long expected that you would have such a request. This is what I recorded in advance."

Taking the roll of parchment, Owen immediately opened it and looked at it. It detailed various precautions and treatment methods for acid slime.

To this, he nodded quite satisfied.

"Thanks to President Masha, you are so well prepared."

Hearing this, Heint smiled again and said politely: "The purpose of our Twin Chamber of Commerce is to satisfy all our guests."
