It is said that when I went in for the first time, I was sent out in just two minutes. Although I was not frightened into unconsciousness, I was at least frightened to tears.
But this young pastor was very strong, and she quickly sorted out her emotions and went deep into it again.
Every time he confronts her, the entire ghost manor feels like it's facing a formidable enemy.
Because she knows a lot about the ghost manor, there is no way to scare her.
At least Wuliu's paralyzing winding, Black Heather's paralyzing touch and a series of special skills would hardly have a surprising effect on her.
To deal with her, we need to focus more on the atmosphere, psychological hints, etc., and then defeat her.
It’s just that the further you go to the back, the harder it becomes.
The girl pastor is not only adapting rapidly, but also growing rapidly.
With the completion of the transaction, the crowd gathered at Yewen Pond was slowly dispersing.
They will take the ghost wine and travel to various parts of Faerûn to sell them at higher prices.
It is believed that wherever the ghost wine is delivered, the reputation of Gavin and Vizeme Estate will spread.
If you want to gather so many boats and so many people here at once, you will have to wait for the new wine of Vizeme Estate to be released.
As the last merchant ship left.
That night a celebration party was held at Vizeme Manor.
This normally dark ghost manor, when a huge bonfire and candles are lit, except for a slight chill, is difficult to associate with the spooky appearance during the day.
There were only a few people present at the meeting, but their status was prominent.
The person sitting in the chair is naturally the owner of this place, Gavin, the owner of Wezeme Manor.
Sitting on the left are Lord Ilmet, Regina and Olive.
Sitting on the right are the Grand Inquisitors of Wallonia, Darnell and August.
Rather than a celebration party, it would be more appropriate to call it a profit distribution meeting for this auction.
Gavin held up the wine glass in his hand and stood up first and said: "Thank you very much for coming all the way. The successful holding of this ghost wine auction is inseparable from your strong support. I believe that this successful cooperation is just a
From now on, we will have more cooperation opportunities in the future, so let’s drink this cup together to celebrate.”
"Well said, I hope we will have more opportunities to cooperate in the future."
"The success of this auction is the result of Mr. Gavin and Miss Regina. We may not have contributed much. At most, we just waved the flag and shouted from behind."
"Mr. Darnell, don't be humble. Your reputation for fairness has helped a lot. Come on, let us have this drink."
"please."
"please."
Others stood up and responded.
After finishing the wine, Gavin sat down and said straight to the point: "The transaction has been completed and the accounts have been sorted out. We can start to clear the accounts."
"Wait a minute." Regina suddenly stood up and said, "Before that, there is still a small process to go through."
"What process?" Gavin looked confused.
This matter was obviously unplanned, but judging from the expressions of others, they knew it very well, and they were the only ones who were kept in the dark.
Lord Ilmet stood up, drew out the long sword in his hand, and said with a solemn expression: "Gavin Nott accepts the seal."
Gavin's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately understood what they wanted to do. He quickly stood up and knelt down on one knee in front of Lord Ilmet.
Lord Ilmet continued: "In the name of the successor to the cloak king Anka Balisk and the current guardian of the Battle Valley, I appoint you as the knight of the Battle Valley. From today on, you will officially assume the guardianship of the Three Rivers.
, Griffin Hill will be your place of inheritance from generation to generation."
"I, Gavin Nott, am willing to inherit Ankh Balisk's legacy and protect this place for generations." Gavin responded loudly.
"I, Valon Yar, in the name of the current Grand Inquisitor of the Hammer of Justice Monastery, the Hand of Tyr, witness the completion of today's sacred oath." Valon had already stood up and stood not far from Lord Ilmet.
, then said loudly.
Lord Ilmet's long sword tapped Gavin on the shoulders, and a smile appeared on his serious face: "Sir Gavin, please get up."
There was no divine light coming or other fantastic sights.
This is just the purest and simplest human oath of allegiance ceremony.
The object of the oath is not Lord Ilmet, but the legacy of the cloaked king Anka who has been dead for hundreds of years.
Because Lord Ilmet and their ancestors were the chief swordsmen around Anka. They only managed the Battle Valley after Anka died and never recognized themselves as the owners of the Battle Valley. Whoever could inherit Anka would
If Ka's legacy can lead the Battle Valley to rise and unify the entire valley, they will swear allegiance to the new supreme king.
"Thank you, Lord Lord, and thank you, Your Excellency, the Grand Inquisitor." Gavin's mouth was almost split to the back of his head.
Regardless of whether there is this canonization ceremony or not, he is the actual owner of the Three Rivers Land.
The main function of this canonization ceremony is to conclude a covenant.
As a canonizer and witness.
When Gavin's right to rule in the Land of Three Rivers is questioned, they will have the responsibility to come forward and clarify.
When an enemy declares war on Gavin, it is equivalent to declaring war on the other two parties at the same time, and they have the right to send troops.
Whether they will send troops depends on whether Gavin's relationship with them is harmonious enough, as well as a series of problems in their own situation - nothing is static.
"No need to thank me, you deserve this." Lord Ilmet patted Gavin's shoulder affectionately and said, "Do a good job, I look forward to the day when you turn the Asaba River into a water-based Rosaville Road.
.”
The admiration in Lord Ilmet's eyes could not be concealed no matter what.
But that kind of look is obviously not that of a lord looking at his subordinates, but more like an old father looking at his new son-in-law.
Although Regina is not his biological daughter, she is better than his biological daughter. She has been entrusted to him since she was very young.
He had watched her grow up, and he knew very well how outstanding his daughter was, and the arrogance that matched her excellence.
From childhood to adulthood, there were countless males surrounding her, ranging from teenagers to hundreds of years old. There was not a single one in the memory of Lord Ilmet that made her look at him differently.
What made her circle around him in turn was that the young man in front of her was the only one.
After just two short contacts of less than ten days.
Lord Ilmet discovered that the other party did possess this charm and ability.
Because the other party's ideas are very unique and his style of doing things is even more eclectic.
Only such a young man can match Regina, who has such unbridled ideas.
"Believe me, this day won't be too far away." Gavin said confidently.
In recent times, what he had most exchanged with Lord Ilmet was the issue of managing the Asaba River around the Land of Three Rivers, and how to make full use of the convenient water transportation.
Even if Rosaville Road is not replaced, its irreplaceable role in Battle Valley must be impacted.
"If you can really do this, you will be the biggest hero in the entire Battle Valley. Let all the people of the Battle Valley get rid of the hundreds of years of shackles that those cunning bastards in Sambia have put on our necks." Ilmet
There was unconcealable anger and helplessness in the lord's words.
Half of the Rosaville Road is within the Battle Valley, running through the most populated area of the Battle Valley.
On the other hand, most of the residential areas in Battle Valley are built around this road.
However, the actual control of this road is not in the hands of Battle Valley, but in the hands of Sambian merchants.
Through trade and this trade route, they have more and more influence and control over the Battle Valley.
This trade route is their decisive weapon against the Battle Valley.
Following this trade route and sending troops to attack Zhanzhan Valley are all considered inferior.
The most superior method, which is also the method that Sambian businessmen are best at, is commerce.
Once the relationship between Battle Valley and Sambia becomes tense, they do not need to send troops. They only need to seal the Rosaville Road at Black Feather Bridge and not allow merchants to enter or exit.
Within a year, Battle Valley would have to surrender without a fight.
Many of their cash crops must be transported out via this road, and some daily necessities need to be transported in via this road.
Sambia does not rely so heavily on this road. They have at least two land routes leading to Cormyr and one sea route leading to the Moon Sea region.
"Those bastards are really going too far. They are treating the valley as a back garden and letting them pick the fruits." Gavin looked like he felt the same.
It was only during the auction that he had a new understanding of the lower limits of the businessmen in Sambia.
There was Carter's lobbying before.
Later, they jointly bid to disrupt the order of the auction and achieve the goal of taking in the money at a low price.
This is why there is such a huge disparity between high and low prices for ghost wines at auction.
The high prices were basically obtained by other chambers of commerce, especially those small and medium-sized chambers of commerce, because the Sambia Chamber of Commerce kept raising the prices from behind, as if it was determined to win, and took down all the ghost wines, and then suddenly made a sudden move in the middle.
Withdraw your hands.
Most of the low prices were bought by Sambia. Because of the previous continuous high prices, the funds brought by many businessmen were exhausted in advance.
In the end, I could only watch as Sambia bought it at a low price.
In order to avoid further lowering the average price of ghost wine, Gavin withheld the remaining 5,000 bottles of ghost wine.
Rather than continuing the auction, it would be better to sell it to other merchants at the current average price of the auction afterwards.
Judging from the current popularity of ghost wine, Gavin only needs a little leakage to sell out in less than three days, and the price will definitely not be lower than the average auction price.
"Sambia is not like this now. There is no need for a group of villains to spoil our mood." The chief judge of Wallonia looked unconcerned. If they didn't do this,
, I’m sorry for their reputation as a jackal businessman.
"His Excellency, the Chief Judge, is right." Gavin said with a smile, "Today is our celebration banquet, a great day to distribute money. Let's continue the previous topic and settle the accounts.
A total of 19,000 bottles of ghost wine were taken out of the manor's wine cellar, two thousand of which have been shipped to the Hammer of Justice Monastery.
Seven thousand have not yet been sold, and 10,000 have been sold for a total of 1.88 million.
According to our original agreement, the base price was calculated as 200,000 yuan. After deducting this part, there is still 1.68 million yuan.
The three families are divided equally, each family has 560,000 yuan, plus each family has 3,000 bottles of ghost wine. Is this account okay?"
Gavin spread out an account book on the table, using a simple form to copy the simplest total number of accounts. The detailed accounts below were two fingers thick.
He didn't play tricks on the accounts, that would be stupid.
His cooperation with the two has just begun, and there will be many uses for each other in the future.
"Hiss, hiss..."
Even though the people present were all wealthy people, they couldn't help but take a breath of air at this moment.
Since Gavin had always been doing the accounting, although they knew that the amount obtained from this auction was not small, they did not have a detailed amount.
Even though the accounts were divided among the three companies, each company still made a net profit of 1.1 million (the remaining ghost wine was calculated based on the average price of 180 yuan/bottle). How terrifying is this.
"If nothing else happens, we will be able to divide at least this amount every year from now on." Gavin added quietly beside him.
