Chapter 230: Collaborators and bidding who are not too involved in the drama (please subscribe~please vote~)
Margarida Margo was slightly startled.
She didn't expect that Goethe's next plan would be like this.
"Hiring 200 bards to go to Fabol's taverns, hotels, and squares to sing our songs...isn't it a bit too deliberate?"
The second daughter of the Tulip family chose to be vague when talking about 'love'.
Although she can be generous when acting in front of everyone.
But when she was alone with Goethe, she was still a little embarrassed.
For this, Margareta admired Goethe quite a lot.
That's so thick-skinned!
Thicker than the corners of the walls of Bear Castle!
"Deliberately?"
"Why do you think that?"
"I have given the people of Fabol the after-dinner entertainment that they like to see and see - they like to see this, and they will naturally believe it. As for those who never want to believe it?"
"Even if you put the irrefutable evidence in front of them, they will insist that it is fake and forged."
"Even if you silenced these people at that time, they might still come up with a sentence...put aside the facts."
As Goethe spoke, he unbuttoned the collar of his military uniform.
Military uniforms look great, but looking good comes at a price.
At the very least, he was choked so hard that he couldn't breathe easily.
call!
The moment he unbuttoned his clothes, Goethe felt the freedom of breathing.
He raised his hand to pour himself a glass of water, drank it in one gulp, and looked at Margarida.
The second daughter of the Tulip family waved her hand, indicating that she didn't need it, and just watched as Goethe poured herself another glass and drank it.
She frowned slightly.
Because this is a bit unethical.
According to the education she received since childhood, she should not make any noise whether eating or drinking.
However, the second daughter of the Tulip family immediately frowned.
This is not Fabol!
Moreover, she has already run out, why should she still abide by such etiquette?
Thinking of this, Margarida walked to Goethe, poured herself a glass of water, and then imitated Goethe's example and drank heavily.
"ha!"
After finishing the drink, Margarida let out a big breath, which made Goethe look at her in surprise.
"What's wrong?"
Margarita was a little shy.
"It's nothing. If I hadn't just drank, I would have thought you were drinking."
Goethe shrugged.
Speaking of drinking, Margarita's face turned slightly red.
She thought about her ugly appearance at the Bear's Castle gathering - although it seemed to normal people that she had managed it very well, to Margareta it was an embarrassment.
After all, ordinary people don’t know the so-called ‘horse urine story’.
"People will change."
"It will change into something different from the memory due to differences in time and environment..."
"The way you look after being drunk doesn't change."
"Because, that's nature!"
"People can't change their nature!"
Facing Margareta's words, Goethe said simply.
This made the second daughter of the Tulip family even more uncomfortable.
She originally wanted to use the topic just now to make Goethe completely shut up about the "horse urine story", but now it gave her a feeling that it was getting darker and darker.
The next moment, Margarida saw Goethe's mouth slightly raised.
"Did you do it on purpose?"
In an instant, the second daughter of the Tulip family reacted.
"Not really."
"You reminded me."
As he spoke, Goethe made the sign "horse piss" with his mouth.
She was so angry that Margarida hit Goethe on the chest.
Of course, I didn’t put any real effort into it, it was just a casual one.
Goethe smiled and didn't take it seriously.
Margarida looked at Goethe standing in front of her with a smile, and couldn't help but laugh too. The second daughter of the Tulip family returned to the sofa - the sofa she was most accustomed to. The back of the cushions was no longer hard at this time.
It becomes more and more comfortable to sit up.
She leaned there and looked at Goethe again.
"Goethe, can you do this to every lady?"
"No!"
"You are the exception!"
Goethe said eloquently.
Although the two parties were in a cooperative relationship, this special treatment still made the second daughter of the Tulip family feel happy, and she couldn't help but ask.
"Oh, why?"
Margareta looked at Goethe expectantly.
Such expectations did not come out of the blue.
But it was buried much earlier.
Not when we first collaborated.
But when the roses were flying around me.
At that time——
The wind is gentle.
Goethe looked at Margarida who was "entering the scene", and the smile on his face became gentler. He raised his hand and put it on Margarida's ear, rubbed his fingers across Margarida's ear, and spoke in the most sincere tone.
, said: "Because, you have money."
Margareta's smile froze.
The second daughter of the Tulip family almost threw the water in the cup at Goethe.
She swore that the reason she didn't do this was definitely not because of the education she had received since childhood, but because Goethe took two steps back after saying this.
"You guys, can't you coax me?"
Margareta suddenly asked in a coquettish tone.
The voice was crisp and full of charm.
Especially Margarida's eyes, with a hint of grievance and seduction, are very capable of arousing men's desire.
But Goethe took two steps back again.
"Um?"
"Compared to the truth just now, you are really 'false' now - you probably want to test me and make me feel a little guilty. When you get close to you, you splash water on me?"
"If you really want to do this, you must control the cup in your hand. The intention is too obvious."
Goethe spread his hands and shrugged.
"If a man remains calm at such a time, he will be suspected of being incompetent in some aspects."
Margareta changed the subject and began to directly attack the 'vital points' that any man would care about.
"When you are suspected, you don't need to prove it."
"I said it, some people will turn a blind eye."
"At this time, all we need is..."
"Choose a pose."
The voice became deeper and deeper. Goethe picked up the little Liu Bei with illustrations next to it, opened one of the pages, and walked towards Margareta. The latter, who was originally smiling, immediately shrank.
"Feel sorry!"
"I was wrong!"
"It was my fault just now!"
The second daughter of the Tulip family immediately gave up and apologized.
At this time, she realized the reality clearly again: the man in front of her was really of a higher rank than her.
But still a little unwilling.
Pure desire to win.
"If, I mean if, I gave you a large amount of money, much more than 5 million gold grams, would you treat me the same way you treated Silla?"
"Fool, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Sheila has never sat in my study like you and talked like this. You will always be special - by the way, can you tell me how much it is?"
Goethe opened his mouth and came.
The sweet sound of Jin Ke colliding made him intoxicated.
For that matter, say a compliment or two, what's up?
Do you make money? It's not shabby.
Margareta looked at Goethe blankly.
final--
"well."
"Sure enough, mother is right, there is no good thing in men."
"Next time you lie to me, remember to keep asking about the price in your heart."
The second daughter of the Tulip family sighed.
"This shows that you are really special to me. I don't want to deceive you, nor do I want to deceive you."
Goethe said sincerely.
"For money's sake?"
"Yes, for money's sake."
Goethe nodded seriously.
Margareta suddenly felt a little upset.
After she took a few deep breaths, she calmed down.
"You have arranged 10 VIP seats around the ring. Is that too many?"
"There are only two Rose families and Tulip families, and among the Fabol noble families, only the Green Vine, Lily, Thorn, Violet and Dark Lotus families are eligible."
Fabol is different from Tesin.
In the previous Tesine, the royal family had an absolute advantage.
Fabol is a protracted open and secret struggle between the Rose family and the Tulip family.
In addition to these two major families, there are five other families: Green Vine, Lily, Thorn, Violet, and Dark Lotus, either watching with eagerness or acting as weeds on the sidelines.
Of course, there are more unknown small families waiting for opportunities.
In fact, except for the Rose family and the Tulip family, Fabol's remaining families have changed countless times over the course of hundreds of years.
Goethe looked at Margareta who had finally returned to normal from the state of "entering the drama" and breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really worried that his partner would become irrational.
After all, his money is at stake!
Not bad after all!
Goethe evaluated his partner from the bottom of his heart, and then said in a very determined tone.
"How come there are so many?"
"I always control the quantity."
"You wouldn't think so?"
Almost instantly, Margareta, who had returned to normal, guessed what was going on.
"Well, it's just what you think."
"Now, get ready."
"Our second game is about to begin."
Goethe said, fastening his collar and stretching out his arms towards Margarida.
The second daughter of the Tulip family put her hand on Goethe's arm and stood up from the sofa.
Two qualified actors took the stage again after a short break.
At this time, the stage has been moved from the gate of Bear Castle to the newly built arena - it is said to be a arena, but under Goethe's suggestion, it has been built like an open-air football field, except for the middle
The lawn turned into a stone arena, surrounded by rows of seats. The layout was exactly the same as a football field.
The number of people is that it can accommodate 25,000 people.
It’s not that we don’t want to build more.
But time can't keep up.
In response to this, Enmlai Ke beat his chest.
You know, this represents money.
15,000 third-class seats, 8,000 second-class seats, and 1,990 first-class seats.
In terms of pricing, the third-class seat is priced at 10 copper cents as previously discussed, the second-class seat is directly increased six times to 60 copper cents, and the first-class seat is increased six times again to 240 copper cents.
Why do this?
Naturally, supply exceeds demand.
The second son of the Grand Duke decided to increase the price after conducting a detailed market survey.
But even so, demand still exceeds supply.
Local northerners are poor.
But people outside the north are rich!
Especially the Fabol nobles wanted to book first-class seats for their servants and entourages.
Because of this, the tickets for these three types of seats alone brought in a total of 1,107,600 copper horns to the Northern Territory's finance, which is 55,380 silver ropes. If converted into gold coins, it would be 4,615.
4615 gold grams may not seem like much, but it’s just the ticket price!
Surrounding shops, food, drink and souvenir sales are not included!
If all of these are included, Jin Ke’s income would be tens of thousands!
Not to mention, there are: VIP seats!
As for the main event, spinach?
Enmlek looks at the number that gradually exceeds six digits and wakes up with a smile every day.
Because, the second son of the Grand Duke knew that as long as there was a good start, the 'Bear Castle Arena' would become a stable income point in the north, with so much revenue every year.
Even more!
"It must be done well!"
“Make the series happen!”
"Then……"
"Expansion! Expansion!"
"I want the Bear Castle Arena to accommodate 50,000... no, 100,000 people!"
"I want to create a series of population relocation plans with the Bear Castle Arena as the core!"
Enmle Ke's eyes glowed with golden light.
The fatigue from working all night with the Archduke's Guard disappeared. He walked through the passage in high spirits and walked towards the stage in the middle of the Bear's Castle Arena.
That's right.
Enmlek is the first host of the Bearsburg Arena.
There is no one more suitable than the second son of the Grand Duke who is in charge of the economy of the North.
The status is appropriate.
Oral skills are also suitable.
If Simulai Ke were standing here, people would unconsciously feel oppressed.
And change it to Gezier Ke?
It looks too young.
Goethe is actually quite suitable.
But Goethe had another task.
As for Nina?
How can a woman from the Ke family know how to work hard?
"Good morning everyone."
Inspired by the energy and blood, Enmlai Ke's voice spread throughout the audience. People from the north applauded vigorously, and people from other places also applauded in cooperation.
"This is an unprecedented feat—"
"Challenge a hundred games of 'same level'!"
"The challenger is my cousin Goethe Wein!"
"To be honest, I don't agree with it. After all, this fool has bet his own territory, 'Svetra Territory'... Oh, but what can I do?"
"He is my biological brother, I can't hit him, right?"
"So, I hope there is a truly strong person who can wake him up."
"Let him understand how ignorant his arrogance is."
Emrek's words once again brought bursts of applause, mixed with enough laughter.
Self-deprecation always works wonders in situations like this.
The Grand Duke's second son did not interrupt the laughter and applause.
He stood there with a smile on his face.
After the laughter and applause subsided, the second son of the Grand Duke continued.
"In order to see my dear brother wake up with his own eyes, my father, Lord Scrooge, the Warden of the North, also came in person!"
As the Grand Duke's second son spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the room that was higher than the ordinary seats.
These rooms are supported by thick logs and stand high above the stands. With a good view, you can not only see everything in the middle of the ring clearly, but also overlook the entire Bearsburg Arena.
Moreover, the structure of the room protects it from wind, rain, and sun, and also gives it a high level of privacy.
Even if you do something extreme, no one will see it.
Because, it is high.
The Fabol nobles were very satisfied with this.
They really like this kind of VIP seats that are different from ordinary people.
I also secretly decided in my heart that I would sit in it.
However, when they saw the Grand Duke appearing at the window of the VIP seat in the middle, Dotniel Mag and Donald Dot both frowned.
There are only 10 VIP seats, and now the Grand Duke occupies 1, leaving only 9 seats!
Limited quantity, less.
It will definitely cost more.
and……
Is it just like this?
They noticed something was wrong.
I'm afraid things are not that simple anymore.
Looking at the archduke who was smiling and waving, the two of them seemed to see an old bear with sharp claws standing in front of them, ready to bleed them.
The remaining Fabol nobles also discovered something was wrong.
After the five families of Green Vine, Lily, Thorn, Violet and Dark Lotus glanced at each other without any trace, they all saw each other's worries.
As the five families under the Rose Family and the Tulip Family, even though their light is obscured by the two major families, they still have to show their presence as much as possible.
This is Fabol's tradition.
Therefore, they must occupy the VIP seats.
They had heard there were 10 before, and they were relieved.
Now?
It might be worse.
The people in the north didn't know what the nobles of Fabol were thinking. The simple people in the north cheered when they saw the Grand Duke.
They believed that their Grand Duke was the most qualified to sit there.
This is enough.
As for the rest?
They didn't think much about it at all.
Seeing the scene as expected, Enmle Ke smiled and continued -
"We northerners are the most hospitable people. When a beautiful girl travels thousands of miles to come to the north for true love, we should..."
"welcome!"
"Welcome Miss Margareta Mag!"
In a drawn-out tone, the northerners present shouted again.
It was a little messy at first, but then it became tidy.
Margarita Margot appeared next to the box where the Grand Duke was sitting, still with a shy and innocent smile, still holding Goethe's arm.
This scene makes all the people in the north happy.
Even the ladies and ladies of the Fabol noble family smiled and applauded.
"Have you arranged someone?"
"Well, we have arranged some spectators, mainly because we are afraid of being left out."
When the two sat down, Margareta asked.
She could hear it clearly. The first few shouts of 'welcome' were extremely appropriate. They sounded almost as soon as Enmlek's voice fell.
So much so that it inspired everyone.
"You are so bad!"
Looking at Goethe with a frank look on his face, the second daughter of the Tulip family said softly.
"Thank you for the compliment."
Goethe smiled and nodded, looking down.
Down below, around the ring, on the seats prepared for the Fabol nobles, Dirkmo was staring intently at this place.
The malice in his eyes was like substance.
Goethe thought for a moment, pulled Margarida up, and had a misplaced kiss under everyone's gaze.
"Ohhhhhh!"
There was even louder cheering.
Crunch!
Amid everyone's cheers, Dirkmo clenched his fists, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Kill him!
Kill him!
The voices in my head kept rolling.
But then, the head of the 'Rose Knights' calmed down.
It's not about calming down.
It was because he was being stared at by Sim Lai Ke that he calmed down.
The eldest son of the Grand Duke was sitting next to him, looking at him indifferently.
"Just wait!"
"There will always be times when you are alone!"
Dirkmo said in his heart, and at the same time, an idea came to his mind.
Enmle Ke glanced at Dirkmo.
Silly X!
The second son of the Grand Duke commented, thinking silently in his heart how to get rid of this guy 'safely'. On the surface, he still smiled and shouted: "In addition to Miss Mag, we have another new arrival in the north.
A guest—Prince Most.”
Most?
The people from the north were stunned.
Most!
Fabol was shocked.
After several days of recuperation, relying on the strong recovery power of the 'Dragon Blood Warrior', Most, an upright, somewhat silly young man, appeared on the other side of the Grand Duke's box.
Although he had not received a prince's education, the young man did not feel guilty when faced with such a grand occasion. After waving to him, he said directly: "Thank you for the welcome, cousin Emley. Seriously, I am not
Guest, I can be considered a Northerner, after all, my uncle Scrooge is here."
This sentence was taught to him by Enmley.
The young man didn't think there was anything wrong.
He is truly grateful to the Ke family for taking him in during danger.
Moreover, he also considers himself a member of the Ke family.
He calls the Grand Duke uncle!
Bang bang bang!
The young man's speech won the favor of the people in the north. Everyone warmly welcomed the young man, which made the young man's smile become even brighter.
Looking at this scene, Dotniel Mag and Donald Dot's expressions remained unchanged, but they became wary at the same time in their hearts.
They are wary of what the North will do next.
at the same time……
There are also more calculations.
Both men saw an opportunity.
However, soon, the two of them retracted their thoughts.
Because there are still matters related to face at hand.
The two of them and the remaining Fabol nobles all looked at Enmley Ke.
Now you can always bid, right?
Is there any reason for you to let someone enter the VIP seat?
There are now 7 VIP seats, and they represent Fabol's nobility just right.
The Fabols thought so.
Enmle Ke looked at the Fabol people in the audience and immediately showed a smile. Then, he raised his hand and pointed again——
"The North is desolate."
"It's freezing in the north."
"In the north when the cold wind is raging, even the furious bears have to go to sleep, but we survive here, marry and have children here, thrive here, and make this our 'home'!"
"This is not the credit of our family alone, but of everyone!"
"So, we invited a respected old man from the North to visit this competition as a special guest!"
"Everyone welcomes them!"
Many faces appeared in the box.
Unlike before, there were a lot of people this time.
Each one has an old face. They have no distinguished status, let alone extraordinary strength. They are very ordinary. Some of them are blacksmiths, some are winemakers, some are hunters, and some are simply farmers. They are very ordinary.
But it is precisely because of these ordinary people that the entire northern border was built.
Only then did the North become prosperous.
The applause this time was far greater than any other time.
Because most of the northerners present are ordinary people.
The old people standing in the box, representing ordinary people, were so excited that their palms trembled.
They couldn't say anything nice, let alone express their emotions at the moment.
They just feel...
Worth it!
But the Fabol nobles felt that it was over!
6 seats available!
One of the green vines, lilies, thorns, violets and dark lotus will definitely be squeezed out!
Immediately, the five family members looked at the smiling Emle. Ke's eyes were full of anger.
"You are so bad!"
Margarita patted the back of Goethe's hand.
"bad?"
"What bad intentions could I have?"
"I just hope those old people can see the beauty they have created - this is the respect and honor they deserve."
Goethe said seriously.
This made Margarida a little overwhelmed.
Just when the second daughter of the Tulip family was thinking about whether she had said the wrong thing, Goethe laughed evilly.
"As for bad?"
"The real bad comes next!"
Margareta was stunned.
Then, the second daughter of the Tulip family thought of something.
She covered her mouth, looked at Goethe, and exclaimed.
"You don't want to arrange for someone to raise the price, do you?"
"What price increase?"
"It's so ugly!"
"This is fair competition."
Goethe seemed to take it for granted.
Below, Emle. Ke also announced the start of VIP bidding for the remaining 6 seats. The base price is 100 gold grams, and each increase in price must not be less than 50 gold grams.
Just after Enmlek made the announcement, someone immediately made an offer.
"500 gold grams!"
The price increased five times in an instant, which is eye-catching.
The people in the north were surprised.
The Fabols were so angry that they gnashed their teeth.
