"The problem that money can solve is usually not a problem, because this kind of small thing..." The middle-aged man looked at the younger generation in front of him and smiled: "Did you see it? Gold coins? In the distant past, our ancestors initially used shells as a substitute for transactions because they had enough of the inconvenience of bartering."

"Then it's metal, right?" his junior asked.

"Yes, my Marcus, humans think shells are not suitable for being in the wallet of a great civilization. They are too fragile and too easy to fake. The beaches are everywhere, so humans start to replace them with metals, such as East Asia's metal currency, and then silver and gold stand out in this metal war. They represent more advanced civilizations. People don't have to carry hundreds of kilograms of jerky to exchange for something, or carry hundreds of kilograms of jerky to go home. This is an improvement, a great progress."

"It also represents the human heart that cannot be controlled." His junior added.

This answer made the middle-aged man very satisfied: "Yes, a businessman like me is such a kind of person. We are so different. We are rich, we are rich, and we are even born superior. Everything is because we have it." The middle-aged man who threw the gold coins to his juniors noticed that the carriage had stopped and he waited until his carriage driver opened the door for him.

"I'm very curious, uncle, why do we still have to be so polite in this world?" His nephew followed him and asked in a low voice and firm manner: "This is different from the businessman I think."

"Because protecting order is generally better than destroying it. Although there are too many problems here and outside that we cannot solve, please believe me. When order and rules are beneficial to us, we must not think about destroying it. This will cost us a lot. Believe in your uncle, I will not harm you, let alone harm myself. Some people and some things have exceeded the tolerance limit of some people. I don't want to be locked in a lifesaving pole and be locked and beaten to the sun. This way of death is too miserable, too painful, and very unhonest. Before the heat of the sun turns you into a human, you may die of heart problems due to boundless fear, which is much worse than being shot to death."

"Uncle... Usually, no one will deal with you like this."

The innocence behind him made the middle-aged man smile. He was a little sad because his juniors did not understand what kind of monsters were hidden under the seemingly peaceful lake of the Federation, and they did not understand that in order to understand the truth under this appearance, the Federation was indeed free, but it was also the least free. He would never understand how horror his uncle had faced when he was young. This was a paradise of freedom and a hell of freedom. No one could truly overtake everyone.

"I'll know when you grow up. My nephew, now shut your mouth and follow me, see what I do. After I go back, I think about why I do this."

Although the young man was curious, when his elders said this, he still shut his mouth very honestly.

Because as the elders said, no one will harm themselves, even if he is a fool.

Of course, what idiots do will always make things rush in an uncontrollable direction.

Even if this is not his intention.

And his uncle is obviously not such a fool.

"The white eyebrows from the Katam family are coming in." Before the servant outside the door sang the name of the baron of the country, the sister of the Lin family at the cocktail party had already noticed the guest and the young follower behind him.

"There is a good boy in the Katam family, and I remember this sentence became popular twenty years ago."

Her sister saw the middle-aged man and walked forward with a smile. She only had two steps. As the master, she had reason to wait for the guests to come to her.

And he walked over without disappointing his expectations: "Good night, little lady, I hope I'm not late."

"Every guest who is willing to come to me is not too late. Your choice pleases me. One more friend is always one more way."

"Of course, madam, one more friend means one less enemy, and becoming a friend of you and your sister is far better than being your enemy. After all, I don't want to jump off the building of Pit No. 1 after bankruptcy. Even if the gravity of the moon is not as good as the earth, I am also a very timid and fearful person at any height. There is a proverb in Chinese that it is right, and the height is cold."

In the eyes of the Lin sisters, the white eyebrows of the Katam family have always been a person who "understands the truth". He is optimistic, cheerful, and good at judging the situation. In previous battle records, he is one of the few men who will leave with a gentlemanly ceremony even if he loses.

This is very fond of favor. After all, no one is going to like a bastard who can't afford to lose.

So, asking him to join the chat ring with his young follower is a choice for the Lin sisters today.

He was not wrong, one more friend and one more way, and in such a time period in this world, everyone who can be united must be united.

"Is there anything that my family and my family can help you and your husband?" The white-eyed said this and lowered his head deeply at the smiling face of the Lin sisters: "I heard from old friends that you, your sisters, and your husband want to raise some food and grass. After all, the front line is like that. If you don't say it, everyone knows it, right?"

"Yes, Herod, you see, Ashby has even been destroyed by war. Before the invasion of New Eden, the average height of the building in Ashby was four and a half floors, and now, there is no way to find a complete two-story building there. The New Edens and us destroyed the city as fast as possible, like a bottomless pit. We lack soldiers, supplies, ammunition, and even the settlement fee for those indigenous families who died in battle."

"In the face of such a great war, only the Federation has no worries. Two young ladies, since you and your family are in trouble, and just so happens that I have some spare money with my family, some of the food that I just harvested last year and had not had time to sell, and some of the flags that were originally to be sold to the Kingdom of Ashbey. I originally thought that the war had wiped that country from this world, but now it seems that at least I can still give them to the last little decent for those who died in the war." Herod of the Katam family said this without any haste. He looked at the Lin sisters, with neither the profit-seeking nature of merchants on his face, and seemed to have forgotten how to pursue profits.

"National Flag? Do you Katam's family do such a small business?"

"After all, it was a business of 70,000. At that time, Ash was preparing for their big parade in the year of flowers than the kingdom. They asked for the silk flag, but who would know that the war would break out in two years and destroy my business? The New Edens are really bastards. I heard that they had killed my cargo owner, which means that my business was completely over." When it comes to this matter, Herod's face was full of pain, which was like the expression a merchant should have.

"Yes, the king has died in battle, so we must end in person this time." This incident is no longer a secret, so the sister of the Lin family nodded, but her next words still made the white eyebrows ecstatic: "Since that's the case, even if your business is cost, you are right. We can give these as a decent gift to the indigenous people who are willing to die in this city, but I don't want you to suffer any losses, after all, we are friends, aren't we?"

"Yes, yes, you and your sister are such a great friend. Since that's the case, I think we should be able to talk about the loan." The white eyebrows smiled, and the white eyebrows were shaking.

The Lin sister in front of him also raised her eyebrows: "How much do you want to borrow, how much is the interest."

"The Katam family can lend 400,000 gold coins and 90% of the food reserves. Although this will make our days a little difficult, in this troublesome day, we cannot find the new name New Eden. If they take Ashbey, then my farm and territory on the northern border will be invaded next. Instead of being cheaper for these uninvited guests, I am willing to do this, and I do not charge interest. If you can drive New Eden away, it is the best reward for me." After that, Herod helped him down and reached out to hand it to his sister: "Madam Su, if you agree, please shake hands."

"Don't you need to sign a contract or have any proof? You are very unprofessional, Mr. Herod." The sister of the Lin family did not hand over it.

Herod shook her head in her mouth: "No, this is exactly the reason why I am most professional. Sometimes, the face of a person, what he says, and the position he is in is the best proof, and it is also the most impeccable contract."

This time, the sister of the Lin family finally reached out: "It's so pleasant to do business with a businessman like you, Mr. Herod, this one is..." She mentioned his young follower.

"My nephew, my third sister's child, Marcus Haku, sorry, in the business world, he is like a child who has not been weaned yet, so I really don't want to take the initiative to introduce you."

"I remember his name, and I seem to have seen his name on the list of recruits in the Kings United."

"Yes, I was just selected this year, with a clean life experience and a father and mother who sacrificed their lives for the country in the Second World War." Looking at his nephew, the white eyebrows obviously passed on his love for his sister to him: "He is my favorite sister's child. I have been taking him, Marcus, and say hello to both wives, and don't stand like a fool."

His nephew was a little unwilling to accept it and bowed down to salute unwillingly.

The Lin sisters didn't seem to see the displeasure on his face: "He's a good boy, by the way, it seems that someone is looking for you."

As he said this, the messenger passing through the courtyard fell on his head.

"It's a military pigeon, sorry." In this world, the young man is still a member of the King's War Chapter. He took the roll of paper in the messenger's chest and opened it to read it. Then he raised his head with some helplessness and excitement: "Uncle, the War Chapter has decided to go south."

"Ah, it seems that your commanders finally made a decision. Did His Highness Al decide to go south?"

"Uh..." Looking at my uncle's expectant eyes, Marcus, as his nephew, looked at the two young ladies beside him with awkwardness: "It's because he joined Lord Marceau, and the Grand Commander received the Supreme Instruction."

"Oh, my good boy, grasp this change." When Herod watched his younger generation leave, he turned to look at the two young ladies, and his face became a little more sincere: "I just remembered that I still have a deposit in a silver cellar. If you don't mind, please accept my most sincere offering. This is for every warrior willing to fight for the innocent."

"Thank you, we see your friendship and keep it in our hearts." The two young ladies in his eyes smiled and took the key he handed out.

"Long live friendship, madam." Herod of the Katam family lifted it up after taking a glass of wine from his servant's hand.

"Long live friendship, my friend." The wife in his eyes also raised her cups.

As for what it was, Herod didn't care.

As a businessman, investing is a very easy and hard job.
